Chapter 96 The Strongest

  The three of them were like a stormy wind and rain, overwhelming everything; they were also like thunderbolts from the nine heavens, destroying all. Faced with the aftermath of such momentum, Zuo Chan'er and others couldn't help but feel their minds wavering and trembling with unease.

  The paper crane in Guo Ming's hand silently slipped into Chen Yu's, and instantly a circle of invisible glory spilled around them, blocking out all the atmosphere.

  Zuo Chan'er couldn't help but look at Guo Ming, who was in the midst of a stormy sea, like a floating duckweed on the surface of the turbulent water. He stood firm and unyielding, as the gentle breeze swept across the mountain harbor. Guo Ming smiled faintly and remained silent, unmoved by the other's attempts to intimidate him, never taking a step back.

  The three old men opposite finally changed their faces, and Zuo Chan'er and the others were also the same. The three elders are what kind of people, they are five-star strongmen! Three elder-level strongmen release pressure together, who can stop it? Even if it's one's own father, he may not be able to withstand it!

  The three of them withdrew their auras without saying a word, and the one in the middle spoke in a low voice: "Who are you, after all?"

  "You're not qualified to ask me," Guo Ming said coldly, "Call out the person in charge."

  "You," the elder said in anger.

  "Haha, do you want to make a move on me?" Guo Ming laughed loudly. Along with his laughter, the entire casino began to shake, as if an earthquake had occurred. The people in the casino looked at each other and frantically ran out, some even wildly grabbing things as they ran. The casino staff tried to intercept them, but seeing the situation, they thought a real earthquake might be coming and also frantically ran outside.

  Everyone's face changed, that kind of power had transcended their understanding. Guo Ming's gaze pierced the three people as he said, "Believe it or not, I can make this casino disappear into thin air."

  Three elders were already pale as death when Guo Ming released his aura, what kind of realm was that? They had never seen or heard of it before, but they knew this majesty could only be felt from the old ancestor, and the old ancestor was a strong seven-star cultivator!

  How did they offend this killing god?

  They didn't know that Guo Ming had already reached the 8th star, which is the Earth Immortal realm of a martial artist. Such power was already beyond their imagination. The 8th star for a martial artist is the Earth Immortal, and the 9th star is the Heavenly Immortal, equivalent to the Yuan Ying of a cultivator. Once they reached this realm, they would be indestructible and immortal.

  On a deserted island in Macau, an old man with white hair and beard, wearing ancient Confucian attire, suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a shocked expression. The next moment he had vanished from the scene. One of Macau's three biggest gamblers, Zuo Leng, was also taken aback as he prepared for meditation when a flash of white light appeared before him, and an old man materialized.

  First shocked, then frightened, he hastily knelt down and said: "Ancestor, how did you come?"

  "How could I not come? What have you people done? You've actually provoked a powerful being from the Earth Immortal Realm, do you want our family to be destroyed?" the old man angrily exclaimed.

  Zuo Leng lost his voice and said, "What? How is that possible?" Just now when that powerful soul pressure appeared, he also vaguely sensed that the opponent might be a strong seven-star cultivator, but he didn't think the opponent could surpass the Old Ancestor. But he never thought that the opponent would actually be a Earth Immortal strongman.

  Zuo Leng was so frightened that his hands and feet turned cold, in the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies were useless, and he could only rely on the old ancestor in front of him.

  "Let's go! Whether it's good fortune or bad luck, we can't avoid the disaster. The old man pulled Left Cold and directly broke through space to leave."

  Zuo Feng looked at the arrogant Guo Ming, suddenly thought of something, and shouted: "You little boy, don't be too arrogant, wait for my Zuo family's ancestor to come, you'll be in trouble."

  Zuo Chan'er was also stunned, and when she thought of the old ancestor who had cultivated for over 300 years, her heart couldn't help but settle down. In her understanding, no matter how strong you were, you weren't a match for the old ancestor.

  "Is it? I'd like to see just how powerful your family's ancestor is," Guo Ming said with a sneer.

  "The three elders also shouted in unison."

  Kuo Ming-cheng wanted to speak, but suddenly stopped and said nothing.

  "It was bold of you. A loud shout came forth, and a majestic aura fiercely sent the three flying. A ripple appeared in the void, and two figures emerged from it."

  Three elderly men were suddenly attacked, just as they were about to shout loudly, when they saw the old man standing in mid-air and the family head with a bitter face beside him, hastily knelt down and shouted: "Ancestor."

  "Don't worship me," the old man in the void said, his voice trembling even more as he gazed at Guo Ming. "How can someone so young be an eight-star strong practitioner? Is he another Martial Saint?"

  Left Cicada, Left Wind were overjoyed when they saw the old ancestor appear, but what happened next left them stunned.

  The old man shook his clothes and knelt down in front of Guo Ming with a thud, saying: "Junior Zuo Yun pays respects to senior."

  The Eight Stars and the Seven Stars are the boundaries between the Immortals and the Mortals. After cultivating for over 200 years, he was still at the peak of the Seven Stars, and although his powers increased with each passing day, he could never break through this barrier. When facing a strong practitioner of the Eight Stars, it was only natural that he would offer his respects by kneeling down.

  The three elders looked at this situation and couldn't help but understand, their faces turned pale as they knelt down. Wasn't the realm they had been pursuing all their lives the Earth Immortal Realm? As for Heaven Immortals, they had never dared to hope for that, it was forever impossible. Seeing that the other party had reached the Earth Immortal Realm at such a young age, Heaven Immortal was also within reach, and thinking of how the three of them had attacked such a terrifying person earlier, they felt their hands and feet turn cold, wasn't this seeking death?

  Guo Ming fell silent, the entire room filled with an eerie and oppressive atmosphere. Left Wind's eyes had almost lost all their luster as he realized that today was his end. A strong being of the Earth Immortal level hadn't appeared in China for decades, yet he had first intended to take advantage of Guo Ming's sister, then repeatedly humiliated him - the outcome was already a foregone conclusion.

  This oppressive silence finally drove him mad, two streams of blood shot out from his chest, and he fell to the ground with a loud crash.

  As for his death, Guo Ming did not express any opinion. Such a person has committed numerous evils, and now that he's dead, it's just the end of him, Guo Ming doesn't have anything to feel guilty about.

  The little girl was about to burst into tears and wanted to reach out to grab her brother's hand, but was sternly stopped by her father with a severe look in his eyes.

  Wan Jun was about to exclaim when Chen Yu covered her mouth tightly. She had thought that Guo Ming was just an ordinary practitioner, but now it seemed he absolutely wasn't. She vaguely knew how powerful a casino's influence could be, yet the ancestor of his family had appeared and still didn't dare resist in the slightest. What kind of person was Guo Ming exactly? Was he truly a celestial being? The kind of domineering air that looked down on everything with disdain made her feel terrified. Of course, she wouldn't foolishly think of him as her sister's husband; such a man wasn't worthy of her.

  "Alright, let's get up! Guo Ming waved his hand slightly and said softly."

  Zuo Yun's face lit up with joy, and he stood up, still slightly bowing his head to show his strong respect for Guo Ming. Guo Ming let him be, looking at Zuo Chan'er not far away, saying lightly: "Miss, give me the money I won, and I'll leave now."

  The cicada's pretty face was full of embarrassment, and she hastily nodded her head.

  Zuo Yun finally understood what was happening. It turned out that the opponent had won the money, and the casino thought he was a young man with no power, trying to welch on the debt. But unexpectedly, the opponent was actually a tough cookie. The casino hastily shouted loudly: "How dare you! Elder brother came to our casino to play, it's clearly giving us face, hurry up and give the money to elder brother!"

  If I had known earlier that the other party was such a pervert, even if it were 50 million or 500 million, she would have dared to take it out. But the other party is so young, who can connect with that kind of hundred-year-old monster?

  As soon as he walked out of the door, a thin voice like a mosquito came, "I believe you know what to do?"

  Zuo Chan'er was taken aback for a moment, then quickly walked away.

  Baxing's warrior transmission sound, Guo Ming naturally found out, but he didn't stop either. Since the other party wanted to compensate, he simply accepted it. Who would reject extra money?

  Zuo Yun saw that the other party did not respond, and his face involuntarily showed a hint of joy. He hastily said: "Senior, it's all because our clan members don't understand things, I'll apologize to you on their behalf."

  "Hey sister, what's on your mind? Just say it!" Guo Ming said, pointing at Chen Yu.

  "My husband is still being held by them?" Chen Yu angrily asked.

  "What's going on?" Left Cloud's face changed slightly, and he turned around to scold loudly.

  At this time, one of Zuo Feng's bodyguards trembled and said: "Old ancestor, that, that husband of hers tried to escape and has been thrown into the sea to feed the fish."

  "What? Left Cloud was really frightened this time, with a wave of his hand, the bodyguard turned into an arrow and flew out of the room. He quickly knelt down and said anxiously, Senior, I really didn't know about this matter!"

  Guo Ming waved his hand and sighed: "Since he's already dead, it's over. The revenge has been taken. Do you have any other wishes?"

  Chen Yu Ming was stunned for a moment, his face ashen, but upon hearing the words, a glimmer of spirit appeared in his eyes, and he smiled wryly: "What wish could I have? Of course, it's to raise my daughter well."

  "This is our casino's fault. The casino will take out 10 million as compensation for you, what do you think?" Left Cloud asked tentatively.

  Chen Yuqiang smiled and said, "Then thank you." She wasn't an ungrateful person. Indeed, her enemy was already dead. If it weren't for Guo Ming today, let alone a million dollars, she would have to endure that man's insults every day. This outcome was already quite good.

  Zuo Yun gave a signal with his eyes, and an elder bowed and left.

  Guo Ming casually sat back on the sofa and chuckled: "You can do it too."

  "No, junior dare not, where does Left Cloud dare sit, repeatedly saying dare not."

  Guo Ming smiled slightly and closed his eyes to meditate. Zuo Yun hastily waved his hand, and the others understood, retreating one after another. Soon, the entire room was left with only the old man and Guo Ming.

  The old man opened his mouth a few times, wanting to speak, but ultimately couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

  Guo Ming opened his eyes and smiled: "Do you have something to ask me?"

  "Elder Mingjian, I've been stuck in this place for over 200 years now. With my lifespan not being long, I'm truly anxious in my heart." Suddenly, Zuo Yun knelt down and said.

  "To be honest, I'm really helpless in your situation, we're not from the same system," Guo Ming shook his head and said.

  "Isn't this a system? Zuo Yun furrowed his brow and soon his face was filled with a look of horror, "You're a cultivator?" For someone at his level, he naturally knew some secrets about the world. He knew about the mysterious power of cultivators, and no matter how strong warriors were, they didn't dare to provoke cultivators. Because cultivators were the true masters of the world, while warriors were just a fallen family legacy from the past."

  The highest level a martial artist can reach is the Nine Stars, equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage of a cultivator. Beyond that, there are no further divisions for martial artists. Over the years, only two people have successfully broken through the Nine Stars: Zhang Sanfeng and the Martial Saint. However, cultivators still have several more realms beyond this point, which is unknown to him. This hints at the immense power of cultivators.

  Guo Ming nodded and let out a long sigh, saying: "This world is much bigger than you think, and I'm just a frog at the bottom of a well." After finishing speaking, Guo Ming closed his eyes. He could be superior to these people in front of him, but facing Zi Yu, that terrifying demon woman, Guo Ming still couldn't muster up any will to resist. The kind of power that represented the grandeur of heaven and earth was absolutely beyond his comprehension.

  Zuo Yun understood the mentality of such people, a deep loneliness and fear of the unknown. The stronger one becomes, the more they realize their own insignificance. How many friends does he have now? How many of his old friends are still alive? His family members fear him, but is this really what he wants? He couldn't help but think of his old master, who was strict with him but valued him the most. And those fellow disciples who grew up with him, how many of them were still alive? Even his own wife, his junior sister, had left him a hundred years ago.

  That kind of intense loneliness is hard for ordinary people to experience.

  The young cicada walked in lightly, carefully looking at the youth with a clear and distinct appearance. In her heart, she felt a sense of dizziness - he was still so young, yet he had already grasped powers that she herself could hardly control throughout her life. For her, as long as she possessed the power of the Seven Stars, she would be able to do whatever she pleased. But this youth went even further, reaching the Eight Star Divine Realm. It's likely that the next Martial Saint will be him.

  He seemed to have fallen asleep. Zuo Chan'er couldn't help but move forward, wanting to take a closer look at him. This time they parted ways, who knows when they would meet again, maybe next year or the year after that.

  Guo Ming opened his eyes, and Zuo Chan'er was startled. Just as she was about to shout, Guo Ming pulled her into his arms and covered her mouth with his left hand. He gestured for her to look in a certain direction, and Zuo Chan'er followed his pointing finger to see Old Ancestor deep in thought, two streams of tears gushing out from the corners of his eyes.

  Guo Ming waved his hand and splashed out a layer of true yuan, opening her cherry mouth, and said softly: "Can I have a hug?"

  Zuo Chan'er was taken aback, he wanted to hug her, she understood that the other party must be a lecherous person, as long as they showed a little interest in themselves, their family would unhesitatingly give themselves to him, now he actually wanted to hug her, she had no reason to refuse, nor did she have the right to refuse.

  Guo Ming smiled at her, then snuggled into her arms, closed his eyes and fell asleep. Guo Ming really fell asleep.

  A moment later, the old ancestor woke up and saw the scene in front of him. He was shocked at first, then his face was filled with surprise and joy. He winked at Zuo Chan'er, who nodded slightly. The old ancestor smiled and disappeared, closing the door behind him.

  After Lao Zu left, Zuo Chan'er's face turned gloomy. The meaning of Lao Zu's words was very clear: he wanted to satisfy all of Guo Ming's demands, no matter what. In other words, he had sold himself to Guo Ming. Was her own fate really so tragic? She looked down at Guo Ming, this extremely ordinary-looking man, and soon the gloom on her face disappeared, replaced by a hint of surprise. The more she looked at Guo Ming, the more flavor he seemed to have, the more temperament he seemed to possess. He was like a cup of wine - only after a long time would one discover its fragrance. Such a young and powerful person was probably rare even in all of China! If she really had to follow him, it wouldn't be a bad deal at all! Zuo Chan'er whispered to herself.

  Unfortunately, Guo Ming was destined to be unaware of the girl's thoughts. On that day, a great war had severely damaged his spirit and it had not fully recovered. Today, he once again used his own power to intimidate, making the injury even harder to suppress, and the damage to his spirit forced him to enter a state of deep sleep.

  Left Cicada waited for several hours and saw Guo Ming still hugging his waist, sleeping soundly, with his eyelids gradually closing as he fell asleep while holding onto Guo Ming.

  Guo Ming slept for over ten hours before waking up, and upon opening his eyes to see a slightly tired Zuo Chan'er, he hastily got out of her arms and apologized: "I'm really sorry."

  Seeing Guo Ming apologize to himself, Zuo Chan'er was overjoyed and hastily said, "No need, no need."

  "Where's my sister?" Guo Ming asked.

  "They are just next door, or I will call them over now." Zuo Chan'er hastily stood up and wanted to go out.

  Guo Ming stretched out his hand and pressed her down, shaking his head and laughing: "No need, they were just a passerby in my life, seeing them afterwards only brings trouble, give me the money, I'm leaving."

  Zuo Chan'er handed him a bank card and said softly, "Would someone of your status be short of money?"

  "Hehe, I don't steal or rob, so I can only come to gamble. Guo Ming put away his bank card and laughed."

  "This is my business card, if there's anything in the future, remember to tell me, I'll do my best to help you."

  Kuo Ming took a rose-gold business card, glanced at it, and saw that it read "General Manager of Penglai Casino, Zuo Chan'er" with her phone number below. Kuo Ming was sure that not many people had received such a card.

  "Left Cicada, nice name, don't worry, little brother doesn't have money to give to Sister Cicada, Guo Ming said with a soft smile, I'm leaving, see you later."

  "Don't go yet," said Zuo Chan'er hastily.

  "What's wrong?" Guo Ming asked in puzzlement.

  "Can I find you later? Can you leave your phone number?" Zuo Chan'er said shyly.

  "Of course, I'd be delighted to have such a beautiful sister. But the phone number, mine is not good, I'm actually planning to change it? You won't believe it, I haven't even bought a new phone yet? The last one was ruined by me." Guo Ming said with a shrug of his hands.

  "Lost? Zuo Chan'er was taken aback for a moment, then handed the exquisite female-style mobile phone from her pocket to Guo Ming's hand, saying softly: "This is a gift from your sister." This sentence was said with great courage. Being able to be the sister of such a strong person is absolutely an honor. It's because she felt that Guo Ming had a gentle personality that she dared to call herself his sister.

  Guo Ming took over the mobile phone from Zuo Chan'er, which was a sliding mini mobile phone. The screen saver of the mobile phone was a cute photo of Zuo Chan'er hugging a small bear. Guo Ming liked it at first sight. He had never seen this kind of mobile phone before, and he understood that it should be a customized product from an internationally renowned company for her.

  The loving look in Guo Ming's eyes couldn't escape Zuo Chan'er, her heart was racing with excitement, this should be a token of their engagement.

  The second watch is over.
