Chapter 110: Gu Yunqi Submits, Subtle Changes

At 8 PM, Jiang Che arrived at the Blue’s Bar. After parking his car, he headed straight inside. He had arranged to meet Gu Yunqi, who was waiting for him in a private room on the second floor.

Seeing Jiang Che’s arrival, Ye Tian, who had been casually observing the stream of people coming in and out of the bar, was taken aback.

His face turned an iron blue, and his eyes shone with cold fury, as if he had just encountered his father’s killer.

“You’re really persistent about having a security guard job,” Jiang Che said disdainfully to Ye Tian, and without further acknowledgement, continued inside the bar.

“Wait, you can’t go in!” Ye Tian, infuriated by being ignored, stood up from his chair and blocked Jiang Che’s path. In response, Jiang Che, without even glancing at Ye Tian, slapped him away.

Ye Tian’s body flew in a parabolic curve and landed headfirst into a roadside trash can, his legs kicking wildly in a comically pitiful sight.

After Jiang Che left, a group of security guards approached Ye Tian and helped him out of the trash can.

Spitting out rotten vegetable leaves and nursing his aching cheek, Ye Tian’s face was filled with anger.

This was the third time Jiang Che had humiliated him, and he couldn’t tolerate it any longer. He decided to seek revenge against Jiang Che.

“Captain, do you have a grudge against Young master Jiang?” the security guards asked Ye Tian, surprised at his boldness in provoking Jiang Che.

Ye Tian gave the security guards a cold look, not saying much, and followed after Jiang Che into the bar.

...

Inside a VIP room on the second floor, Jiang Che sat across from Gu Yunqi.

“Why did you suddenly think of looking for me today? Don’t you have to accompany senior sister?” Gu Yunqi, slightly tipsy and with a flush of intoxication on her face, asked Jiang Che lazily.

“I missed you, so I came to see you,” Jiang Che replied.

“You missed me?” Gu Yunqi scoffed, not believing Jiang Che’s words. She felt there was no emotional connection between them.

“What do you mean by that?” Jiang Che frowned and sat closer to her.

Gu Yunqi felt uneasy with Jiang Che’s proximity. Despite being slightly drunk, she was still aware of her situation. “What are you doing?” she asked, her face reddening even more.

“I’m just making sure you understand your place,” Jiang Che said bluntly.

“You’re shameless!” Gu Yunqi looked at Jiang Che with resentment.

Although she cursed him, she knew she was in no position to resist, given her current disadvantageous situation.

“Swallow it!” Jiang Che commanded.

“Forced?” Gu Yunqi scoffed. Initially, she had indeed been coerced by Jiang Che, but as time passed, she found herself falling for the domineering younger man.

“If you’re sick in the head, go to the hospital. Don’t hang around here,” she said coldly, turning to rest her head on Jiang Che’s chest, ignoring Ye Tian.

Stunned by the sight of Gu Yunqi lying demurely in Jiang Che’s arms, Ye Tian was at a loss. Was this the same underground queen he had known in his memory?

“It must be you, Jiang Che! You’ve done something to my boss!” Ye Tian accused, frustrated.

“Idiot!” Jiang Che looked at Ye Tian as if he was a fool.

“I will kill you!” Enraged and unable to contain his fury, Ye Tian lunged at Jiang Che, focusing his internal energy into his palm, aiming straight for Jiang Che’s head.

Jiang Che remained seated, not even bothering to glance at Ye Tian. As Ye Tian’s attack was about to land, a faint golden barrier automatically appeared around Jiang Che, blocking the attack.

“You... you’re a master of Transformation Realm!” Ye Tian stared at Jiang Che in disbelief. The barrier that had effortlessly neutralized his attack was characteristic of a protective aura exclusive to masters of the Transformation Realm.

How was this possible? Jiang Che appeared to be only in his twenties yet had already reached the level of a Transformation Realm master.

Witnessing his display of power, Ye Tian’s pride as a rare talent who reached the peak of the innate realm at twenty-five shattered. He felt utterly insignificant compared to Jiang Che, who had achieved the Transformation realm.

Ye Tian was close to despair, wondering how he could compete with someone of Jiang Che’s caliber.

“You’re a master of the Transformation ealm?” Gu Yunqi also looked at Jiang Che in surprise. She knew Jiang Che had some level of cultivation but had no idea it was this advanced.

“Surprised? You can reach this level too. I can help you cultivate to the Transformation ealm,” Jiang Che said with a sly smile.

He practice the cultivation method, the “Limitless Pure Yang Technique,” which had an abundance of vigorous qi and blood, suitable for helping others improve their cultivation.

He recalled how Ah Qing transformed from an ordinary person to a mid-stage Dark Energy master after receiving his treatment for over a month.

“I can too?” Gu Yunqi’s interest was piqued. As a martial artist, she naturally desired to become stronger.

However, her cultivation had stagnated at the early innate stage due to neglecting her training in favor of indulging in alcohol.

“Of course, but not now,” Jiang Che said as he stood up and approached Ye Tian.

“What are you doing?” Ye Tian, terrified, backed away from Jiang Che. Knowing Jiang Che was a master of the Transformation realm, he lost all thoughts of resistance.

The gap between the Innate and Transformation realms was insurmountable.

Jiang Che, with a toothy grin, reassured him, “Just teaching you a lesson.” He then slapped Ye Tian, who let out a scream and was sent flying, crashing against a corridor wall before sliding down.

Struggling to get up, Ye Tian tried to flee, only to be caught by Jiang Che, who continued to slap him, turning his once handsome face into a swollen mess.

Muttering incoherently, Ye Tian swore revenge against Jiang Che: “Jiang Che, you bastard, I will kill you!”
