CHAPTER 88: CHAPTER 85: RECOGNIZING EACH OTHER

"You... who are you?" The ugly man struggled to lift his head, looking at the black-robed man in front of him with horror and asked.

The ugly man could feel the threat of death emanating from this black-robed man; his strength was at least two tiers higher than his own!

The black-robed man slowly removed his hood, revealing a young face that bore a seventy percent resemblance to Wang Jun.

The visitor was none other than Wang Xu.

The Celestial Spirit simulated what Wang Jun would look like ten years later, and Wang Xu immediately used his spiritual consciousness to cover the entire Earth, quickly locating Wang Jun.

Excited, Wang Xu flew straight to the Sixth Safe Zone, imagining the joy of the two brothers’ reunion.

However, upon arrival, he discovered that his brother was living in the lowest of poverty, feeling guilty at heart. Upon successfully finding him, he coincidentally encountered the ugly man kicking out, trying to kill his brother!

Wang Xu was immediately furious, flashing in front of Wang Jun and quickly throwing a punch, but he didn’t use his full strength; otherwise, this punch would have been enough to reduce the ugly man to pulp.

"Put her down," Wang Xu said coldly, his tone sinister.

A few Tier Three brawny men shivered, glanced at the ugly man curled up like a shrimp and wailing, and quickly set the modest woman down. The woman immediately ran over and threw herself into Wang Jun’s arms, tears streaming down like rain.

"Se... Senior, we are from the ’Flying Knife Association,’ Brother Feidao is our boss." One of the brawny men said tremblingly.

The Flying Knife Association was the leader of this area, with their leader, Brother Feidao, being a Tier Six expert, unbeatable throughout the slums. Moreover, it was heard that Brother Feidao had connections with some big figures in the Protected Area, so even Tier Seven experts wouldn’t dare to provoke him.

With such a background, it’s no wonder his subordinates were emboldened to act horrendously.

The brawny man tried to leverage the reputation of Brother Feidao and the Flying Knife Association to intimidate the black-robed man before them, hoping he would hold back. But he miscalculated.

"Flying Knife Association?" A murderous intent erupted in Wang Xu’s eyes, "Dare to touch my family, you will all die!"

Wang Xu reached out, made a gripping motion in the air, and the few brawny men were lifted by an invisible giant hand. They struggled desperately, but it was of no use. After struggling for a while, their eyes bulged, legs stiffened, and they died on the spot.

The few brawny men had committed all sorts of evil, well-deserving of death. However, as soon as they died, the ugly man immediately knelt on the ground, begging for mercy, "Senior, Senior! Please, don’t kill me!"

The black-robed man before him was too powerful, undoubtedly stronger than Brother Feidao. If he didn’t submit, he would likely end up like his subordinates!

"Get out and wait outside. If you dare to run... hmph!" With a cold snort, Wang Xu slapped the air, causing a concrete wall outside the house to explode with a bang, as if it had been bombed.

The ugly man nodded repeatedly, trembling as he walked to the door. He didn’t understand why "Li Lei," clearly just a lowly commoner, would have such a background.

Li Lei was Wang Jun’s alias. Over the years, experiencing too many events forced Wang Jun to use a false name to get by.

"Wang Jun." Wang Xu turned his head, his gaze softening, "You’ve suffered all these years."

Looking at Wang Xu’s face, Wang Jun stood frozen in place as if an immobilization technique had been cast on him. After a long pause, he finally spoke, "You... are you... brother?"

Wang Xu’s appearance bore a seventy percent resemblance to his own, allowing Wang Jun to recognize him at once.

Wang Xu gently nodded, reaching out to ruffle Wang Jun’s hair, "When you were little, I loved ruffling your hair like this. You were only four years old then, always following behind me..."

"Brother!" Wang Jun’s memories surged like a tide, his eyes reddening, tears streaming down his face, yelling mournfully.

Wang Jun remembered all these past events, cherishing this period the most. However, he had long believed his family was dead, perished in that plague of insects.

"A man shouldn’t cry." Wang Xu helped Wang Jun wipe his tears and looked at the modest woman, "This must be my sister-in-law."

"Brother." The modest woman quickly paid respects. Wang Xu waved his hand, "We’re all family, no need for formalities."

Then, Wang Xu took out a pill, handing it to the modest woman, "This is a Blood Supplement Pill. Your face is sallow due to long-term malnutrition; take one to recover a bit."

The modest woman hesitated, and Wang Jun said, "Lili, take it. He’s my brother, not an outsider."

"Thank you, brother." After thanking him, the modest woman accepted the Blood Supplement Pill and swallowed it. Her sallow face immediately gained color, becoming fairer.

"Waa~" Suddenly, a baby’s cry sounded from the room, Wang Xu’s face lit up with joy, looking at Wang Jun, "You have kids?"

Wang Jun smiled and nodded. It was the birth of his son that gave him the will to continue living during the darkest time of his life.

"Haha..." Wang Xu laughed heartily, "The Wang family now has a successor. If Mom and Dad knew, they would surely be so happy!"

Then, Wang Xu held the baby, who immediately stopped crying, staring at Wang Xu with bright eyes, and even reached out with small hands, wanting to touch him.

"Haha... It’s my first time seeing my little nephew, such a cute face. Here, uncle has a gift for you." Wang Xu flipped his hand, and a jade bracelet suddenly appeared. It was a defensive Star Spiritual Treasure in the form of a bracelet. When under attack, it would automatically form an energy barrier that even Tier Nine experts would find hard to break through.

Wang Jun and Lili exchanged shocked glances. The jade bracelet was too valuable, costing at least tens of thousands of Earth Coins even at the lowest price. Wang Xu’s generosity was surprising.

Of course, if they knew this bracelet was worth countless hundreds of thousands, they would probably be more than just shocked.

"Alright, mom and dad are thinking about you, go back now." Wang Xu led Wang Jun and Lili out of the house, waved his hand, and a silver-white flying battleship swiftly approached.

After sending the two onto the flying battleship, looking at the little nephew in Lili’s arms, Wang Xu smiled and said, "Go back, mom and dad are waiting for you in the garden."

Then, the flying battleship rose into the air and shot out like a shadow.

The smile on Wang Xu’s face gradually faded, replaced by a cold and grim expression, murderous intent surging, as he turned to look at the ugly man.

"Take me to the Flying Knife Association."

...

The Black Cloud Country was very troubled.

Hei Xi ancestor had been out for so many days with no news at all, impossible to contact, making the once confident Black Cloud Country suddenly anxious.

"With Hei Xi ancestor’s strength, dealing with a mere Tier Eight kid should be no problem. Maybe Hei Xi ancestor has already killed that Tier Eight kid and gone back into seclusion to cultivate. Yes, that must be it." Black Cloud Country could only speculate to comfort itself.

Revenge must be exacted, and likewise, the family’s business had to continue. Despite Black Cloud Country’s gloomy mood, he had to personally go to the Sixth Safe Zone to find the number one in the slum, Zhou Feidao.

The Hei Family’s business was extensive, but most were unsavory. If the government really found out and pursued them, they would likely face prosecution by the Supreme Court immediately. Although this meant nothing to the Hei Family with its three Venerables, their business reputation would plummet, so Black Cloud Country had to come to negotiate in person.

"Mr. Yunguo, my credibility in business is well recognized. The slum may not be eye-catching, but it holds great profit. If you’re willing to let me have another 10% concession, I assure you that this matter will be handled perfectly without any flaw," a lean man said.

"10%? Aren’t you a bit too greedy." Black Cloud Country sneered, Zhou Feidao’s appetite was too big, three-tenths of the profit was not enough, yet he wanted another layer. "This matter is non-negotiable, it will proceed at the original price."

"Mr. Yunguo, this..." Zhou Feidao showed a difficult look, Black Cloud Country’s gaze sharpened, and he said, "Don’t be disrespectful. Do you want to oppose my Hei Family?"

The Hei Family’s imposing presence fell like a mountain, Zhou Feidao’s small calculations vanished instantly. This was a prominent family in the Core Area; even with three guts, he wouldn’t dare provoke them. He could only nod and agree.

Black Cloud Country stood up: "Alright, it’s settled then. I’ll come to inspect the goods in a month..."

Bang!

Before Black Cloud Country could finish, a figure suddenly crashed through the office’s large window. The bodyguards responsible for protecting Black Cloud Country immediately surrounded him.

"Who is there!" Black Cloud Country yelled angrily. Someone dared to move against him? Tired of living!

"Little Seven?" Zhou Feidao was also startled, but upon seeing the figure that broke through the glass, he immediately frowned, showing a suspicious look.

"Brother Feidao, you must stand up for me!" The ugly man crawled over to Zhou Feidao as soon as he saw him, grabbed his leg, and began to cry bitterly.

"Hmph! Someone dares to touch my Flying Knife Association’s people? Looking for death!" Zhou Feidao immediately snorted coldly and shouted assertively.

"I came looking for death, let’s see if you dare to touch me."

At this time, everyone finally noticed a figure slowly rising outside the window, dressed in a black robe, the young face covered in killing intent.

Black Cloud Country was about to explode, but when he saw the face, his body instantly froze, and he fell into a daze.

Wang Xu!

It was him!

He was not dead!

Black Cloud Country immediately thought of Hei Xi ancestor. Clearly, back then, Hei Xi ancestor had caught Wang Xu’s position and went personally, how could Wang Xu escape?

But he immediately thought of Hei Xi’s lost contact, the disappearance, which meant the only possibility was... Hei Xi ancestor was dead!

Zhou Feidao was also stunned, his gaze turned fearful instantly.

Walking through the air!

This person in front is a Venerable!

The ugly man fainted on the spot when he saw this scene. When Wang Xu threw him into the office, he thought he had a way out, not expecting that this person was a Venerable!

The term Venerable is known to everyone, the real figure at the top of humanity.

If you provoke a Venerable, you better be one yourself, or be protected by one, otherwise, there’s only one end — death.

Clearly, the ugly man was doomed.
