Chapter 15

Wang Xu was in a completely covered hover car and couldn’t see anything outside. He didn’t know where they were taking him but he decided to ignore it. He immediately closed his eyes and started cultivating.

The few Gene Warriors who were in charge of guarding Wang Xu shook their heads when they saw that Wang Xu could still cultivate calmly in such a situation. “Fools rush in where angels fear tread. Let’s see if you can still be calm later.”

About half an hour later, the hover car stopped. Wang Xu opened his eyes and was pushed out of the car. He was wearing shackles made of special materials.

The car stopped in front of a dilapidated abandoned building and the few of them brought Wang Xu in.

After walking a few steps, Wang Xu saw the bald man from before and a middle-aged man beside him.

This person looked 70% similar to Xu Yuan. Wang Xu only took a look and immediately understood.

His heart sank. He didn’t expect Xu Corporation to act so quickly. He had only gone to the dean’s room and it had been less than an hour. Xu Corporation had already learned of the news and made a move. They were too fast.

“Bastard, you’re Wang Xu!” Xu Tianqing’s eyes were red and filled with surging viciousness.

He had already gone to see Xu Yuan’s corpse. His neck was almost completely cut off and his eyes were filled with aggrievance, causing Xu Tianqing’s heart to ache.

The Xu family had been having male heirs for a few generations. They had pampered Xu Yuan since he was young. Unexpectedly, he was killed in a trial!

Xu Tianqing was furious. He had to kill the enemy himself no matter what!

“Mr. Xu, I’ve already brought him here. Where’s the money?” said the bald man.

Xu Tianqing took out a golden card and said, “There are three million Earth Coins inside. The extra one million is to treat the brothers to tea.”

The bald man licked his lips and looked at Xu Tianqing in admiration. This fellow was quite good at pleasing people.

“Are you sure you want to do this?” Wang Xu suddenly asked.

His tone was neither servile nor overbearing, and his gaze was firm as he looked at Xu Tianqing.

Xu Tianqing seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. “Your life is already in my hands. Just wait for death obediently!”

“You laid hands on a level-four elite student. Unless you have the authorization from the government, if the government knows about this, even the Xu family probably won’t be able to bear the consequences,” Wang Xu continued.

Every single one of the level-four elite students was an elite of the human race and had special privileges. If he wanted to deal with a level-four elite student, he had to obtain the government’s permission. Otherwise, he would be considered a traitor and be tortured!

The fact that the Xu family’s seventh safe zone could interfere didn’t mean that the government would change the rules for the Xu family. Just like how people couldn’t kill in the protected areas, once the rule was violated, it would be considered a serious crime and would be investigated to the end!

“Know? This place is full of my people and you will die here soon. Do you think the government will know about this?” Xu Tianqing sneered.

“What if I have this?” Wang Xu waved his hand and an optical brain chip appeared in his hand. It was the optical brain chip that the dean had given him.

Wang Xu originally planned to go home and tell his parents the good news before reporting to the Ancient Hall of Extreme Dao. Then, he would take the test and obtain the Elite title so that his parents could live in the protected area. He didn’t expect Xu Tianqing to act so quickly, so he had no choice but to reveal his identity.

The optical brain chip was different from ordinary communication devices. It could perform intelligent voice control. With just a few simple instructions, Wang Xu would be able to report the situation to the virtual network.

Xu Tianqing frowned and glanced at the optical computing chip in Wang Xu’s hand. He sneered and said, “Hm! It’s just an optical computing chip. There are countless of them in the Xu family. Do you think I’d let you go because of this? Aren’t you too naive?”

“Wait!” Suddenly, the bald man shouted and walked in front of Wang Xu. “Let me see this chip… It’s real, it’s actually real!”

“What real?” Xu Tianqing asked impatiently.

“Extreme Dao Ancient Hall! This is the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall’s optical brain chip!” The bald man’s eyes were filled with fanaticism as he shouted.

“What?!” Xu Tianqing was stunned and his face turned pale as if he had been struck by lightning.

Extreme Dao Ancient Hall?

How was that possible!?

The military, the Freedom Alliance, and the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall were the three publicly recognized powers.

The Extreme Dao Ancient Hall was founded by the number one powerhouse in the world, Luo, and it was all over the safe zones. To Xu Tianqing, that was a terrifying force that could overturn the Xu family with a casual blow!

The reason why the military and the Freedom Alliance were powerful was entirely because of the number of their members. However, the Ancient Hall of Extreme Dao was different. They only recruited people with great talent. If someone was invited by the Ancient Hall of Extreme Dao, it meant that this person’s future was boundless. Therefore, the Ancient Hall of Extreme Dao had far fewer people than the military and the Freedom Alliance but was comparable to them in terms of strength.

Xu Tianqing didn’t expect that Wang Xu, who had just advanced to level four and had just come out of the academy, had already joined the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall and become a member of it before even taking part in the elite test!

“Let him go! Quickly let this kid go!” Before Xu Tianqing could react from the shock, the bald man quickly said.

The others weren’t stupid either. When they heard the words “Extreme Dao Ancient Hall,” they already trembled. They didn’t dare provoke this type of person, so they immediately removed the shackles on Wang Xu.

“Ma Wu, what are you doing!?!” Xu Tianqing asked with a sullen expression.

Ma Wu threw the golden card that Xu Tianqing gave him back. “This is the money you gave me. The deal is off! Xu Tianqing, you can die if you want to, but don’t drag us down with you!”

Extreme Dao Ancient Hall. These light words represented a tremendous power!

Other people weren’t aware of the power of the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall, but Ma Wu knew about it clearly. He had once followed a small team outside the safe zone to hunt for insect beasts. One of the members in the team came from the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall.

After that, they got unlucky and encountered a level-seven powerhouse. That powerhouse wanted to snatch their treasures and kill the member from the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall. Ma Wu was lucky to escape. However, on the second day, news spread that the level-seven powerhouse was actually dead!

From that moment on, Ma Wu knew that he could provoke the military and the people of the Freedom Alliance, but he couldn’t provoke the people from the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall!

This was a group of madmen, extremely united and terrifying beings with strong talent, unparalleled strength!

“Kid, I was rash just now. I didn’t get to the bottom of this and did something to you recklessly. I’m really sorry. This is a little token of my sincerity. Take it as a way to calm you down.” Ma Wu took out a golden card. There were five million Earth Coins inside. It could be said that this was half of his property.

The situation changed so quickly that Wang Xu was stunned.

The influence of the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall was so great! He only said that he was a member of the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall and the bald man’s attitude instantly changed 180 degrees. This was too dramatic!

“Forget it. Since you’re apologizing sincerely, I will let this off.” Wang Xu calmed down and took the golden card from Ma Wu. He glanced at Xu Tianqing, then turned around and left.

Xu Tianqing wanted to stop Wang Xu, but Ma Wu stood in front of him and said with a sullen expression, “Xu Tianqing, although the Xu family is powerful, don’t blame me for not reminding you that this fellow isn’t someone you can touch. If you’re sensible, end this matter quickly. Otherwise…”

After saying that, Ma Wu waved his hand and left the abandoned building with his subordinates.

Only Xu Tianqing and his subordinates remained standing in shock. What was going on?

…

Once he walked out of the abandoned building, Wang Xu immediately moved and left quickly. He wasn’t worried that someone would chase after him but he had to be cautious.

“Fortunately, I chose to join the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall. Otherwise, my life would probably have been lost here today.” Wang Xu was glad. If not for the identity of the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall, the bald man called Ma Wu wouldn’t have let him go. He even gave him a golden card to apologize.

From what the dean said at first, he felt that the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall was the weakest of the three forces. It was only because it had a powerful ancient martial arts that Wang Xu chose to join it.

Unexpectedly, not only was the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall not the weakest, it might even be the strongest force!

“Dad, Mom, I’m home.”

Wang Xu went straight home. As soon as he pushed the door open, he smelled a strong smell of smoke. Wang Xu walked in and saw his parents sitting at the table with worried expressions.

“Xu, come, sit down,” Wang Zhenguo said calmly as he flicked the ashes from his cigarette.

“Dad, Mom, you don’t look too good today. What happened?” Wang Xu asked.

“Xu, tell me what trouble you got yourself in.” Lin Hui’s eyes were red. “Don’t worry. No matter what you did, Mom and Dad will be on your side.”

Wang Xu was baffled but he immediately understood after thinking about it.

“Did the Xu family come to you?” Wang Xu said with an unfriendly expression.

Seeing that his parents were silent, Wang Xu knew that Xu Tianqing hadn’t only made a move on him but also his parents!

“I killed Xu Yuan in the academy,” Wang Xu said indifferently.

His parents immediately trembled.

“Xu Yuan targeted me. I was almost killed by him during the trial. I didn’t want to kill him at first, but he… threatened me with your lives. In order to avoid future trouble, I killed him,” Wang Xu said. “However, Dad, Mom, you don’t have to worry. I’ve already become a level-four Gene Warrior!”

Level four?!

Wang Zhenguo’s eyes instantly lit up. With a look of disbelief, he said, “You… have advanced to level four?”

His mother, Lin Hui, was also dumbfounded as she looked at her son in shock.

Wang Xu nodded seriously.

“Haha…” Wang Zhenguo’s worried expression changed as he burst into laughter. His eyes were red from laughing as tears flowed down his face.

“I knew it. My son is a genius. He won’t disappoint me! Haha…”

A level-four Elite Warrior!

One level made a huge difference. After Wang Xu reached level four, he would be a human elite and would be valued by the World Government. His future would be promising!

In front of a level-four warrior, what was a small position like the supervisor? So what if he lost his job? His son was a human elite now!

Her mother, Lin Hui, was so excited that she was about to cry. She held Wang Xu’s hand tightly and said, “Good, good, good. Xu finally became successful…”

Upon seeing this scene, Wang Xu’s heart ached. He could feel the sincere joy of his parents. He secretly swore in his heart that he would protect this family relationship that wasn’t easy to obtain no matter what.
