Chapter 1: I Snatched Three Magical Furs

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It all started in the little garden of Green Vine University. Chen Xiaobei carefully took out a brand-new iPhone 6 from his pocket. He held it in his hands, smiling goofily.

“Happy Birthday, Bingbing!” Chen said.

It had always been Yao Bingbing’s dream to own an iPhone 6 but she was now gazing at it in disdain.

“I’m not going to accept this shitty phone, I’m breaking up with you!” Bing said.

Boom!!

Chen felt like thunder had struck him. His mind went blank. He could not believe that the girl standing in front of him was his girlfriend of six months. Chen was a village kid, he grew up in a rural town, and was familiar to a life of hardship. In order to purchase this mobile phone, he had to skip classes, work part time and set aside half of his living expenses for three months. He never expected to be met by this kind of response.

“Why?!” Chen asked, furious.

“Because you are poor!” Bing said. She held up her handbag and said sarcastically, “This is limited edition LV handbag. I could buy a hundred of you with this. And I can easily get this, and many more goodies — as much as I’d like — because my new boyfriend will pay for it! Is that reason good enough?”

“I never would have taken you for this kind of girl!” Chen said angrily.

“Don’t be silly! This is the reality of life,” she continued, her tone condescending, “Blame this bad incarnation of yours. You were born of poor donkey parents, you have always been destined to have a crappy future. I will never become the daughter-in-law of your poor-ass family.”

“Woman, you can lay it on me, but you have no right to talk about my family like that!” Chen glared so intently at her that he could have fired lasers out of his eyes right through Bing’s body.

“You... What’s with that look? Are you going to beat me up in public?” Bing was frightened. This was her first time seeing Chen’s knife-like stare.

“No, no. I’m not going to beat you up. But someday, I will make you kneel in front of me, as you regret this decision and beg for forgiveness!” Chen growled icily.

“Are you in a trance? From this moment onwards, till the day I die, you are a foreign existence that will have nothing to do with me,” Bing huffed and started to walk towards a BMW that was parked quite a distance from they were.

The car door opened, and a guy pulled her into the car, and grabbed her thigh.

“Shi Mingwei?!”

Chen’s eyes turned into blazing charcoals. He never expected Bing’s new boyfriend to be Shi. That guy was Chen’s classmate, and he was rich. His family owned a jewelry business. He bullied Chen on daily basis and he had just robbed him of his girlfriend. Things had escalated to a whole new level.

“F*ck this! I will have my revenge!” Chen said angrily, clenching a fist.

“You’re just a small-time farmer, you are not qualified to even fight me.” Shi put his hand out of the window and flipped Chen off, his middle finger raised over the car roof. Chen had never felt so humiliated in his life before.

“Shi! You f*cking pig!” Chen was so angry that he almost flung the new phone at him.

Ding!

Right at that moment, the brand-new cellphone’s screen lit up. “Do iPhones normally turn themselves on? Could it be a replica?” Chen frowned, about to toss the cell phone again, for an entirely different reason.

Ding!

Ding!

Ding!

In the next seconds, a continuous stream of messages popped up on the cell phone’s screen. Chen was confused as he scanned through the messages.

Chang’e goddess just sent you a Red Envelope.

Bull Demon King just sent you a Red Envelope.

Xiangyu The King just sent you a Red Envelope.

King of Hell...

The messages flooded his phone. It was as if he had just hit the jackpot.

“Are they a group of maniacs? Their names sound funky,” Chen said to himself.

He quickly opened the chatting application and tried to snatch as many Red Envelopes as possible. There were others in the chat room too, apparently snatching away at them too. Chen checked on his cell phone’s screen with a gloomy look. He did not get any Red Envelopes even as the messages kept going.

“Maybe all these people are a group of guys with strong arms. Wizards who have been single for thirty years. How am I going to compete against them?” The fact that he couldn’t get any Red Envelopes was like a second fatal blow to him. He increased his tapping speed like there was no tomorrow.

Ding!

Congratulation! You got Monkey King’s Red Envelope. You received three monkey furs of prosperity. It has been deposited inside your treasure chest.

“Shit, All I got is some furs?!” There was nothing he could have done.

“How can I receive monkey furs from the Red Envelope? Is this some kind of new technology?” Chen had never used such an advanced cell phone before. So, he decided to give it a try. He found the treasure chest icon and clicked it. Three monkey furs showed up on his screen. There was a sentence under the picture –

[This is the monkey fur of prosperity. It allows you to shapeshift into anything you want. Do you wish to claim it?].

Chen clicked yes and a golden monkey fur appeared on his palm.

“What the f*ck is this?!” Chen screamed.

Even though Chen had never used an advanced cellphone before, he was not so igorant that he would believe that cellphones can actually produce something solid out of thin air. It totally defied his rudimentary knowledge of physics.

“Could it be....that this group of maniacs are actually real gods and goddesses? But then again, Xiangyu The King and Bull Demon King are in the group as well. They were not gods. Chen was very confused. He read the name of the group, ‘Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms’. By his general knowledge, he knew only a little about the Three Realms which refers to the realms of heaven, hell, and earth. Other than gods and goddesses, there were different demons and humans inside the group as well.

Historically famous people like Lord Guan, Qin Qiong, Xiangyu The King were in the group. However, Chen was baffled when he saw that Li Bai and Du Fu were in the group as well. When it came to the demon side, there were well-known demons that Chen recognized; Bull Demon King, Skeletal Queen, Spider Demon and many more. Chen was absolutely baffled, and perturbed, when he saw all those well-known demons in the group.

“It’s no wonder I couldn’t get any Red Envelopes. There are tens of thousands of members inside this group. Well, I couldn’t care less. Let me try out this Monkey Fur first.”

Chen calmed himself down, lifted up the Monkey Fur and said, “I dare you to create an extra hand on my body for me to snatch more Red Envelopes.”

Poof!

Chen blew at the Monkey Fur. A real hand with flesh and blood sprouted out of his body. It could even be moved freely as well, as if knowledge on how to use it was instantly obtained.

“What the f*ck?!”

At least he now knew that this suspiciously named group was real.

Then Chen slapped himself in frustration. “Damn it! Why did I make such a stupid wish? How am I going to face others with an extra hand on my body? Should I get it amputated now?”

Ding!

Magical effect of Monkey Fur: Three minutes remaining. “Oh! There’s a time limit! I was scared to death!” Chen sighed in relief.

Theoretically speaking, if the magical effect was perpetual, I could very well wish for a mountain of gold and silver, and solve all my problems.

“Shit! I should get back to snatching more Red Envelopes!”

Chen smacked himself on the forehead and started to use all three hands to tap on the phone’s screen frenzily. All of them were actual deities. Even a small thing like Monkey Fur was precious. There was no way that he was missing this golden opportunity.

“They are way too good at this. There’s no way I can fight against them.”

Three minutes had passed, and Chen still had not gotten anything. His cellphone vibrated for a second before the third hand vanished. Chen jumped up and down gleefully.

“Got it! Double kill!”

Ding!

Congratulatiosn on getting Lord Lao Zi’s Red Envelope. You have received Eight Diagram of Godly Prediction. It has been deposited into your treasure chest.

Ding!

Congratulations on getting Moon Lord’s Red Envelope. You have received three Charms of Marriage. It has been deposited into your treasure chest. Chen was euphoric. After that, the cellphone’s screen that was flooded with constant notifications of Red Envelopes gradually came to a stop. A portrait popped up.

Lord Lao Zi: Uhhumm. Hello, fellow friends. Good evening. Today is a good day to release the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms. From today onwards, this Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms will be our new home.

(Let’s just skip the 8000 more words uttered by this old guy and save ourselves some time).

Jade Emperor: Good speech, Lord Lao Zi. (Three emojis of applause followed)

Sanzang: I support the Jade Emperor.

Xiangyu The King: You are full of shit! I’m going to continue giving out more Red Envelopes.

Bull Demon King: YuYu, I found a divine garment with golden threads. I’m going to send it to you right now!

Jade Face Fox: Brother bull. You are so full of love. (Heart-shaped emoji)

Princess Iron Fan: (Three knives emoji).

They started to flood the forum with their conversations.

“I don’t think they’ll be giving out the Red Envelopes any time soon.” Chen quickly swapped his SIM card from his old cellphone to the new cellphone. Then, he rushed to the bus stop. He didn’t even check the contents of two Red Envelopes that he had just received. He only had his revenge in mind.

Chapter 2: Is That Actual Shit Coming Out From Your Mouth?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It all happened at the Billionaire Karaoke.

It was BingBing’a birthday. Shi Mingway had organized a super luxurious celebration for her. He had invited around thirty classmates to join the celebration. The air was full of excitement.

“Give her a kiss! Give her a kiss!”

Having consumed some alcohol, the crowd had started to get really high. They were egging Shi and Bing on. Right at that moment, the door of the karaoke box opened. In came Chen.

“Why the hell are you here? You’re not welcome here!” Bing snapped coldly.

“Asshole, have you not given up? I’m the one who Bing loves. Please stop bringing shame to yourself by trying to make a scene here!” Shi drawled lazily.

Chen shook his head and said calmly, “Please don’t misunderstand my intentions. It has come to my realization that Bing and I are not meant to be together. We are of different worlds. There will be no happiness if I force her to be with me. I’m here to wish you and Bing a happy relationship. Also, to witness your happy moment.”

“I’m glad that you know your place. If you have come here to make a mess, I will make your life difficult!” Shi huffed, a slap-worthy smirk plastered on his face.

“Oh, where were we? Let’s continue!”

“A kiss! A kiss!”

“Master Shi! Give her a French kiss!”

“Hold the kiss for three minutes long!”

People around them were getting more and more excited. They took out their cellphones already prepared to record this moment. Shi swaggered towards Bing with a “wannabe-cool-guy” face. He used his left hand to hold Bing’s waist and his right hand to lift her chin up. Then, he proceeded to deliver a passionate French kiss. At the same time, Chen held a monkey fur in his palm and said, “Let there be a pile of shit in his mouth!”

Whoosh!

Chen blew on the monkey fur at their direction. “Shi, what’s in your mouth?” Bing asked and her eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

“Erm...”

Shi felt his own mouth filling up with something horrifying. His cheeks puffed up.

Blargh!

Shi puked out a stream of diluted, stinky, yellowish shit, smack on Bing’s face.

All his classmates were stunned. They were frozen on the spot. “What the f*ck! Master Shi! Did you just shit from your mouth?!” Chen cleared his throat and took out his camera to take pictures of this hardcore, intense moment.

“Shit? He barfed shit! Blargh! I can’t take it anymore. I’m gonna throw up!”

“What the f*ck! How is it possible for him to vomit shit? It’s too damn disgusting!”

“Let me out! I’m gonna die!”

All his classmates rushed out from the karaoke box. Shi looked like a total idiot. He smacked his lips to make sure that it was shit. He opened up his eyes wide and looked at his startled girlfriend. Both of them keeled over and started to vomit at the same time.

Ding!

Three more hours before the monkey fur loses its magical effects.

“Well, they’ll be suffering for quite some time!” Chen left the scene, his nose pinched together.

Just then, he received more notifications. After leaving the karaoke, he broke out in laughter, almost fainting as he ran out of breath. Chen was elated as he thought of how the merciless gold digger Bing and the arrogant punk Shi were suffering inside. Of course, he will never forget that it was only possible because of the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms.

“This monkey fur is good stuff! Sadly, there’s only one left, I’ll have to use it wisely. I should go to a place to check out the other two other two packets I received earlier on.”

Chen calmed himself down and ran to a back alley to check his cellphone. “Let’s take a look at The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord’s Eight Diagram of Godly Prediction! Lord Lao Zi is the head of SanQing. His position is super high. His stuff should be super good!”

Chen opened up his treasure chest and pressed the receive button excitedly.

Wee!

A ray of bright light shone out from his cellphone and the light started to take form before his eyes.

Taichi, two complementary forces, four aggregates, five elements, eight diagrams, ten decimal cycle, twelve duodecimal cycle, twenty-four solar terms, stars of heaven, and a myriad of living creatures. The rentire universe was in front of him.

“Cool! Hollywood’s CGI has nothing on this!” Chen was really impressed.

Ding!

The owner of Eight Diagrams of Godly Prediction can predict misfortune and fortune, deliver good and luck, analyze Feng Shui formation. Do you want to use it?

“Oh yes! Of course I want to use it!”

A mythical looking circular symbol marked itself on the back of Chen’s hand when he clicked on his cellphone. He raised his left hand and started to make some predictions, having had the divine knowledge instantaneously placed in his mind, by some supernatural force.

“Come on! Time for the master to foresee today’s luck.”

Chen already had a full understanding on the inner workings of the Eight Diagrams. Those amateur, those bogus Feng Shui Masters were nothing, compared to him. He was the true Feng Shui Master now. All of a sudden, his eyes flashed open and he said in great surprise, “Ooh, romance is coming from the south.”

Just as he finished foreseeing his luck, he saw an extremely gorgeous lady running towards him. Her facial features were delicate beyond compare, her white, silky skin even reflecting light. Her tall frame and slender body were like those of a Victoria’s secret model’s. Her gracefully long and fair legs were out of this world. A single glance of her would ignite any man.

Chen recognized her and said, “Lan Mengchen. One of the four hottest girls in school! A total of four hottest girls were chosen in the school forum. She is known for her perfect facial features and her off-the-charts cool factor. She is extremely low profile, and even with the powerful research capabilities, no negative rumors about her could be found. She was a well-known goddess among the students. When Bing was still with Chen, he never really paid much attention to her. Looking at Lan now, he was truly entranced by her beauty. Compared to her, Bing was a pile of garbage.

“Help! Please help me, mister...” she screamed as she ran into Chen’s embrace.

“So soft....” Her generous, soft chest was pressing against Chen’s body. Blood nearly spurted out of his nose.

“Soft?” Lan was too nervous to realize what he was talking about. She kept turning her head back, her beautiful eyes looking out for something behind her.

*Cough!*

“It’s nothing...” Chen shook his head and asked, “what happened to you?”

“Hmm! Let me tell you!” A fierce looking man with red hair approached him. He said arrogantly, “She belongs to me, and she is going to accompany me tonight!”

He had at least ten followers with him. At one glance, Chen knew that they were a group of gangsters.

“Mister, please save me. I will definitely repay for your good deed!” Lan tugged at Chen’s sleeve nervously.

“Erm...Miss, I’m outnumbered here, how am I going to save you?” Chen felt sweat dripping down his head. He was just a normal university student, and he had almost failed his physical benchmark test. There was no way that he could fight against this group of gangsters.

“Novels always say that when a gorgeous lady is in danger, the male protagonist will definitely save her.” Lan was very anxious. It looked like she was simply looking for someone to get her out of this mess, and she came to Chen, because there was no one else around.

“Er, miss, we are in the real world, not a novel. If I try to play hero here, I will be beaten up like a helpless dog,” Chen said, there was unmistakable tension in his voice.

“Asshole, if you don’t want to be beaten, get lost! Don’t stop our Fire “Grim Reaper” Boss from his pretty prize!” A bald guy stepped out from the group of followers, uttering those words menacingly.

“Hmm?”

Suddenly, Chen stared at the boss with his eyes wide open and said, “Don’t come any closer, I can sense the spilling of blood close by!”

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“What do you mean by a blood spill? Your empty words don’t scare me! Pffft!” The bald guy said. He started to walk towards them furiously.

POM!!

A beer bottle fell right on top of the bald guy’s head. The sound broke the silence of the night.

Foosh!

Red hot blood was gushing from his head, not showing any signs of slowing down. “Ouch....This f*cking hurts....” He dropped and rolled on the ground in agonizing pain, clutching his head.

“Do you believe me now? I told you there will be a blood spill but you chose not to believe me.” Chen said, confident.

Everyone around him was stunned. The back alley was near the karaoke. It was pretty normal for bottles to fall from the building. But, how did Chen know when and where this bottle would drop?

“Can you foresee the future?” Lan blinked her eyes, they were as shiny as the stars in the sky. She was curious.

Chen stiffened, and then nodded his head and said, “Yes. I know a little about foreseeing the future. If you are interested, I can predict your future for you.”

“Bastard! Stop making up all this shit! Just a one-time prediction and you consider yourself a true master?” said the Fire “Grim Reaper” Boss.

“You don’t believe me?” Chen looked at the face of the leader of the group and looked into his past. “Both of your parents have passed away. You have walked alone for ten years. Also, you have suffered a lot to earn this position. Other than that, you are living a luxurious life right now. But, there’s something in your mind that is currently pressuring you. You want to be more powerful. Am I correct?”

After listening to all these, all his followers were even more stunned that before. All of them knew that their boss had become a gangster ten years ago. And, that he had slowly worked his way up to become the boss. Above him, there were more powerful gangs pressuring him. And, it was hard for him to expand his power. Chen got everything right. This was a truly divine prediction. However, the boss shook his head and said, “Everyone knows about my past. That’s not a prediction. Are you treating me like an idiot?!”

“But, I’m not from the underground world.” Chen twitched his lips and said, “Fine. More recent news then. Hmm.. Your wife left you yesterday! She is a good woman. Also, she left because she was angry at you!”

“What the f*ck is happening right now? How do you even know that?” The boss was stunned, his eyes wide. The incident had just happened last night. He had not shared this with anyone because it was a shameful thing. He didn’t expect Chen to know about this matter. This was crazy.

Again, everyone around him was stunned by what he just said. Lan’s mouth was half opened as she stared at Chen with her beautiful eyes. She looked really cute.

“Master, you are my dear master! I’m impressed by your prediction ability! I’m now convinced!”

The boss’ attitude toward him had completely changed. He begged Chen, “I regret making her leave me, Master, please teach me how to make her come back to me. Please!”

“I can help you but you must promise not to disturb my friend again.” Chen tapped Lan’s shoulder. Lan was still in his embrace, stunned.

“Don’t worry, master! If you are willing to help me, from this moment onwards, you will be my dear brother and she will be my sister-in-law. I will respect and love the both of you!” The boss thumped on his chest as he made his promise.

“What kind of nonsense is that? What do you mean by sister-in-law?” Lan snapped back to reality and her face reddened. She quickly pulled away from Chen. The combination of shyness and her beauty was perfect. It made her so lovely. Chen’s heart was racing. The gangster around him were moved by her beautiful movements. But, Chen was beside her, none of them dared to make a move on her.

“Wait here! I need some time alone!” Chen instructed. Then, he walked away from them. He turned on his cellphone and found the three charms of marriage inside his treasure chest. He figured these charms will be able to help him.

[Please write down the names of two person on this charm. The two people will be married. The rate of success is fully dependent on the individuals. Do you want to withdraw it?]

“There’s no guaranteed success? This is bullshit!” Chen looked disappointed but he clicked withdraw without hesitation. The value of this item is rather low since it did not have a 100% success rate. Thus, it was totally fine to give out as a present.

“Take this charm and write down your name and your wife’s name.” Chen handed over the charm to the boss. His wife was a nice lady and he really wanted to become a better husband. The charm would very likely work for them.

“I’m done writing.” The boss did it as fast as possible.

“All is done. IWhen you go back, I want you to become a vegetarian and pray to God. She will definitely come back to you,” Chen said.

“Becomea vegetarian and pray to God?” The boss hesitated.

“I always fall asleep when I pray and a no-meat diet is a pure torture for me. Can I.....”

“Cut the crap! Just believe me and do it. Don’t blame me if your wife is gone forever. Also, your followers should become vegetarians and pray to God as well. It is a show of good faith,” Chen said, and gave him a slight smile.

Actually, there was no need to become a vegetarian and pray to God to use the Charm of Marriage. Chen did it on purpose to punish this group of gangsters that did no good to the society.

The boss nodded and said, “Sure! Sure! Sure! I will listen to the master! Before my wife comes back to me, I will make surethat all my followers are vegetarians and pray to God with me, every single day.”

His followers were devastated. “Boss, please don’t do this to us! We can probably hold on for a day or two at most. Heck, instead, we will become a group of monks if your wife does not to come back to you.”

“Cut the crap! Just believe in Master Chen! Let’s go! We should leave these two to have some alone time.” The boss trusted Chen fully. He commanded his followers to leave the place while scolding them.

“You are finally safe.”

Lan patted on her chest and said in a serious tone, “Thank you for saving me. You may leave your number with me. I can buy you a meal some day.” She was as cool as she usually was, after she had calmed herself down — that made her even more gorgeous and perfect.

“So gorgeous...” Chen was stunned for a short while, and he handed his phone number to her with a smile on his face.

“Don’t try to sweet talk me. I do not like guys who sweet talk all the time.” Lan grumbled playfully. She took a look at Chen and said, “I shall leave first. This weekend, it’s a date then.”

“You don’t have to rush! I’m going the same way as well. Also, I’m from Green Vine University like you.” Chen quickly followed her.

“What a coincidence! I can’t believe we are from the same university.”

“Well, I call this fate.”

“You are really good at prediction. Where did you learn all these tricks?”

“It’s self-taught.”

“Does the charm work? They will come back and beat you up if it doesn’t work.”

“Don’t worry. It’s from the Moonlord. It will definitely work!”

“What do you mean by the Moonlord?”

*Cough*

“I meant that the moon is really big and round today.”

The two of them walked back to the university together. Lan’s cool factor also included the fact that she was a woman of few words. However, this time she opened up herself and started to chat with Chen. It was joyful talking to her. Chen walked her back to her dorm and said goodbye to her.

His three roommates were gathered around the computer, looking at something. But when they saw Chen entering, they quickly flipped the screen shut.

“Third brother! You’re back?” Eldest brother Zhou Zitao and second brother Zheng Fengyi were nervous when they saw him.

“What are you guys watching?” Chen asked curiously.

“Now won’t be a good time to replace out. So, it’s better for you not to ask,” Forth brother Li Ming spoke up.

“I’m really fine! Why would I be sad?” Chen asked.

“Let me watch! Curiosity kills the cat!”

Li hesitated for a while before turned the screen around. He said nervously, “Third brother, you must not break down....”

Chapter 4: Second Brother Is Looking For Me

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was post from their university’s forum. The title was, “Master Shi’s luxurious birthday party for his girlfriend.” It was live. There were a lot of pictures uploaded in the post. Pictures like intimate moments between Shi and Bing, blowing candles, making wishes, cutting the cake and others, were all over the forum. They seemed really happy in the picture.

“Third brother, please don’t be upset...”

“Let’s take from a different perspective. This b*tch is a waste of your time.”

“Third brother, hang on! Please don’t hurt yourself or commit suicide.”

Three of his roommates were really tensed. They were afraid that Chen will break down mentally. Chen smiled calmly and asked, “How long ago was this? Have you refreshed the page?”

“What do you mean by that?” Zhou asked.

“Quick! Refresh it now!” Zhang said.

Li quickly clicked on the refresh button.

Three of them were stunned by what they saw the next second. There were more pictures being uploaded to the post. This time, all the pictures were pretty disgusting and hardcore. The whole forum was flooded with this news. Titles like:

[Master Shi puked “gold” on his girlfriend’s face, it was a really “golden” moment!]

[Let’s take a look at this in terms of biology. How did Shi even puke shit?]

[What does shit taste like? What’s the texture? #Shi #Bing]

“Oh shit! The whole forum is full of their “shit”! How is Bing going to face the crowd tomorrow?”

“That b*tch deserved it! That’s what she gets from toying with our third brother’s feelings. Karma is a b*tch, b*tch!”

“Click refresh again! I want to see what’s next!”

The three of his roommates had completely immersed themselves in this news. Only Chen knew that this was the doing of his “good deed”. He quickly took a bath and leaped onto bed to see if there were any more red envelopes to be snatched. Being able have his revenge and saving Lan were all credited to the Red Envelopes group. There were different items inside the Red Envelope. He definitely wouldn’t mind getting more of it. Sunddenly, his cellphone vibrated.

Ding!

[Zhu Bajie would like to be your friend.]

Chen was shocked. The first thing that came to into his mind was the face of a pig, “Zhu Bajie? Why did he add me as his friend? Maybe the system found out that I’m the supernumerary.”

Today was the release date of Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms. Chen was sure the reason he got into the game was because there was a system loophole. He will be kicked out from the group if he was found out.

“What should I do now? Right! I can foresee my own future. Let me see if it’s ok to add him as friend.”

A few seconds later. Four words came to his mind, “Good things will happen”. Chen was so relieved when he knew nothing bad will happen.

“I can add his as my friend without worrying then.”

He received a personal message as soon as he accepted.

Zhu Bajie: Good day my friend. (Three shy emojis)

“Erm....”

Chen quickly thought of a pig’s head with shy emotion. He was disgusted by it. He replied apprehensively, “Good day Master Zhu. I wonder, why are you looking for me?”

Zhu: You received three Charms of Marriage earlier, right?

Chen said: Yes.

Zhu: Can I have one please? I’m willing trade for it.

Chen: Why do you need the charm?

Zhu: I would like to do something with Chang’e Goddess. (More shy emojis)

Chen: I understand. (Sweaty emojis)

Everyone within the three realms knew what happened between Zhu Bajie and Chang’e. It was fine for him to exchange the charm with something else because he did not need the charm anyway. The question is, what should he exchange the charm for? Chen had zero knowledge about the items from deities.

He thought for a while and asked: Do you happen to have the Fur of Prosperity from the Monkey King himself? If you have it. I’m willing to exchange the charm for it.

Zhu: I don’t have it with me. He gave out all his Red Envelopes. Now, there’s a bald patch on his body. It’s hard to get fur from him at this moment. (Three sweaty emojis)

Chen was kind of disappointed. He saw that Zhu was really desperate and he knew he was in luck. So, he asked him directly whether he possessed any human’s items.

Zhu: I don’t have any human’s stuff but I can go back to Gao Village to check it out.”

Chen was had no choice but to wait for him tomake a trip back to Gao Village. He could not believe that Gao Village did exist. He was in need of money, thus, he replied by saying, “Just get me some gold, jewelry or silver.”

Zhu: Those are useless items. Don’t you realize that I’m basically ripping you off in that case? Your charms are worth a lot more than that.

Chen: I don’t think I’m losing out much. You take this as good will from me. Also, we can become good friends after this.

Zhu: Splendid! You are already my good friend now! Hold on, let me take a trip back to Gao Village!

Chen smirked as he thought, “All those gold, jewelry and silver might be useless to you but they will worth a lot to me.” One man’s junk, another man’s treasure. The same goes for the charms. They’re useless to me.

“Third brother! come over here! The forum has been flooded by another news!” Zhang screamed.

“What kind of news would be hotter than the Shi’s incident?” Chen was curious, so, he jumped down from his bed and took a look.

[School beauty Lan, went out with a mysterious guy and went back to the dorm together,late at night!]

There were a lot of pictures under the big title. People who commented on this post were all crazy fans of Lan. They were jealous of the mysterious guy. Most of them were trying to identify the mystery guy.

“Man, people like these have too much time on their hands! They might as well use the time to jerk off!” Chen snapped, feeling somewhat guilty.

They could not identify him because the photo was taken at night. He would be in big trouble if others could see his face. “Third brother, the guy in the picture wore the same outfit as you. Please don’t tell me that it was you in the picture!” Li was shocked and his eyes were wide open.

“What the hell! Asshole! Confess now! What’s your relationship with our goddess?” Zhou and Zhang stood up and walked towards him with their fists ready. These two guys were Lan’s die-hard fans. They will surely make Chen pay for this.

Chen knew that it was useless to explain it to them right now. So, he buffed up his gut and outrightly told them, “Fine! I admit that Lan is my girlfriend!”

The three of his roommates were rather shocked when they heard what Chen just said.

“Third brother. When did you learn how to brag so well?” Zhou rolled his eyes.

“I’m not bragging. It was me in the picture! I gathered up my courage to tell you the truth. How dare you choose not to believe me?!” Chen said.

“Third brother. Your bragging skill is just bad.....” Li shook his head and continued to check out the post.

“Third brother! I have to advise you on this matter. You don’t even have enough money to buy food. How dare you approach Lan the beauty. Lan’s family is the richest family in Green Vine City. There are only a few rich guys in this city qualified to pursue her!” Zhang said.

“Well, I’ve fessed up. It’s up to you guys if you don’t believe me.” Chen shrugged his shoulders. He praised himself for his wisdom secretly.

His cellphone vibrated all of a sudden.

[You have received a Red Envelope from Zhu Bajie.]

Chapter 5: The Meeting Of Enemies

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“That was a quick one, Brother Zhu! Let me see!”

Chen smiled as he pressed the icon and snatched the Red Envelope.

Ding!

[Congratulation on getting Zhu Bajie’s Red Envelope. You have received a small treasure box and it has been deposited inside your treasure chest. Do you want to withdraw it?]

“Brother Zhu is really generous! I can’t believe he gave me a box of jewelry!” There were only dollar signs in his eyes. He quickly went back to his bed and used a blanket to cover himself.

[Withdraw!]

A small wooden box appeared after a flash of bright light. Chen couldn’t wait to open the wooden box. There were ten little nuggets and some other jewelry inside the box. The jewelries were not considered top grade and the quantity of the nuggets weren’t anything great. He really couldn’t complain much because these items were from Gao Village. It was enough to make Chen hyped up because he was born in a poor farmer family.

“I’m going to be filthy rich! My life is going to transform! Hahaha!” Chen said happily.

“Third brother. What the hell are you doing inside the blanket? Are you watching porn again?” Zhang excitedly went up to Chen and said, “Don’t you know that good porno clips are meant to be shared?!”

“No! I’m not watching porn!”

Chen crawled out from his blanket and asked, “Second brother, you are one of the rich guys born and raised in Green Vine City. Do you know anyone interested in buying gold?”

“Aren’t you a third generation farmer? Where did you get the gold?” Zhang asked curiously.

“I’ll need more time to explain it to you. Just tell me first!” Chen said ambiguously.

Zhang nodded and said, “Well, all the jewelry shops will always be interested when it comes to purchasing gold. The price is around three hundred Yuan for one gram of gold. Please don’t get fooled by them!”

“Alright. I will check out some jewelry shops tomorrow. I will treat you guys to a good meal if everything goes smoothly tomorrow!” Chen said happily.

“What?! Are we hearing it right?”

His roommates were so shocked and stared at him for making such bold statement.

“The sun is going to rise from the west tomorrow. You have never treated us to any meals before!”

“That’s right! You guys heard me! I want you guys to cancel all your appointments tomorrow. Second brother, I want you to reserve a table for us at the best restaurant in town, and you guys can eat all you want. I’m going to pay for the meal.” Chen said proudly.

Chen had never felt so badass since entering university. There was only one word to describe his feelings right now — excited.

The three of his roommates flashed wide grins and said, “Haha. If you say so. We are to give thanks to Chen the boss in advance!”

It was very rare for a university student to dine in a fancy restaurant.

Everyone went to sleep after the hype. The next morning, Chen got on a public bus headed to the center of the city . He browsed the Red Envelope group on this way to the city. Unfortunately, people were just chatting inside the group. There were no Red Envelopes to be snatched.

The second he got down from the bus, Chen saw a big sign that said “Da Feng Jewelry Shop” across the busy street. It was the biggest jewelry shop in Green Vine City. Their customers were all from the higher class of this society. Rich people loved this shop.

“Wow! This place is really top of the class. Even the guards are so tall and buff. I’m going for this shop!” Chen ran towards the shop happily. Unfortunately, he was stopped by the guards before he could enter the shop.

“Stop! You are not allowed to enter this shop!” The guard said in a deep voice.

“Why? Is it because of my worn-out outfit?” Chen frowned. He actually knew that better than anyone else.

Due to his financial situation in his family, he wore the same shirt for three years. The color of the shirt had already faded from excessive washing.

“You outfit is indeed really bad, but that’s not the primary reason of why you are not allow to go in.” The guard shook his head and said, “We are serving a VIP at the moment! No one is allowed to go in before that important person leaves the shop.”

“What kind of VIP is that? I can’t believe that the shop has to be closed for that one VIP. Isn’t that too much?!” Chen said, shocked.

“You wouldn’t believe me even if I told you. Just leave! You’re going to be a pain in the ass! My boss is going to scold me if he sees you standing outside.” The guard said grumpily.

“Fine! I will go to the other shop!” Chen shrugged. He did not want to reason with the guard.

“People like this will respect me and bow down before me like a dog when I become rich. ”

All of a sudden, a sharp voice came from behind Chen.

“Asshole! Why are you here? Get lost! Do not bring your bad luck into my shop!” It was Shi and his overly attached girlfriend, Bing.

“This is your shop?” Chen was shocked. This was a small world for these two enemies to meet at the same place.

“Cut the bullshit!”

“Da Feng jewelry shop belongs to my hubby Shi’s family! Security! Please kick this poor farmer out from this place! He’s here to create a scene!” Bing yelled, pointing at Chen.

Chen became angry and he said in a tone full of disdain, “I will not come here even if a Rolls Royce was sent to pick me up because there are two shit eaters here in this place.

“Asshole! How dare you speak of that! Are you treating me like those vegetarian monks?” Shi yelled at Chen.

“No, you are not a vegetarian. All I know is you have eaten shit before,” Chen said calmly.

“You.....” Shi was so mad that he nearly vomited blood.

“I’m master Shi! I can kill this poor farmer’s son with only one finger!” Shi yelled at Chen.

“Well, you have eaten shit before.” Chen shrugged.

“My dad is Shi Dafeng. I have three hundred million Yuan in my bank account!”

“Still, you have eaten shit before.”

“My cousin is the head of a group of gangsters. He has three hundred followers with him!”

“Again, you have eaten shit before.”

Blarghh!

Shi moved three steps backward with his hand on his chest. He tried to suppress the urge to vomit blood. Shi was so angry to the point that he felt like he was going to collapse on the ground.

“Say the word “shit”! Say it again!” Shi yelled at Chen

Chen nodded his head and proceeded to say calmly, “You had puked shit before. You even sprayed it all over Bing’s face. Pictures were taken of the moment you puked shit. Also, the news flooded out on the university forum.”

The relaxing way of how Chen conveyed his message was pretty destructive. It was a critical hit for Bing and Shi.

“Shut up!”

Shi and Bing were so mad that they started to scream. Their reactions were priceless. It was better for them to bang their heads on a piece of tofu and just die on the spot.

“Double kill!” Chen laughed blissfully because of his victory.

“Security! Why are you still standing there? Kick this piece of shit out of this place!” Shi was basically roaring. His hands were shaking and it looked like he was having a seizure.

“Yes, sir!” The security gulped. He had never seen Master Shi ever bullied by others since he started working here. Suddenly, another roar came from the shop.

“What is happening here?! Who dares to make a mess in front of my shop? I will make sure the person’s life is going to be miserable if that person makes our VIP unhappy!”

A middle-aged, plump man, dressed in a suit and leather shoes rushed out from the shop. His looked very arrogant. He looked just like Shi. Obviously, he was Shi’s father. The boss of this jewelry shop, Shi Dafeng!

“Dad!”

“Uncle!”

Shi and Bing quickly ran behind him and started to complain about what Chen had just done to them.

“The two of you better shut up! You call yourself the son of Shi Dafreng but you can’t even take care of one poor farmer! What a shame! Shi Dafeng was not in his best mood. It’s probably because there’s no deal with the VIP.

Right at this moment, the VIP walked out of the shop and looked at Chen in surprise.

“Eh, why are you here?”

Chapter 6: The Powerful Ms Lan

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was a lady of rare beauty. She had perfect facial features. Her hair was kohl-black and it flowed down her shoulders. The rhapsody-blue dress that she wore made her stand out from all the ladies around her. Her statuesque figure was truly pleasing to the eyes, radiating with natural sexiness. And perhaps, even here, in the midst of the jewelry and the other well-dressed individuals, her beauty was something out of this world, spoken of but never seen, like a jewel hidden in a secret vault. She was the epitome of a goddess. All the men around her were stunned. They just couldn’t look away from her. Even Bing the b*tch, was stunned by her beauty as well. She wanted to hide in a corner because she was jealous, feeling so small in front of her. She was nothing compared to her. The award of best reaction went to Shi. His face turned red, his two eyes wide opened. That famished wolf like facial reaction made him looked like he couldn’t wait to lick the goddess’ feet. Bing was so jealous. She used all the strength to pinch Shi. However, Shi didn’t even flinch. It was like he was just turned into stone by Medusa herself.

“Ms Lan, allow me to introduce my son, Shi Mingwei to you. He is your university mate. Quite a good-looking young man, right? Also, he passed his exams with flying colors every semester.” Shi Dafeng was fuming with rage a second ago, and now, he’s smiling, as he introduced his son to Ms. Lan. If Ms. Lan was interested in his son, this was going to be the best thing that ever happened to Shi’s family. Even the souls of Shi’s ancestors will be celebrating for him.

“Hello, Ms. Lan!” Shi was smiling like an idiot. He kept nodding his head like a dog, lifting up its paw and trying to hold the goddess’ delicate hand. However, Lan did not even take a look at Shi Mingwei. She smiled and walked towards Chen and said, “I never thought that I would see you here, Master Chen.”

“Hi, Lan. I would say this is fate.” Chen scratched the tip of his nose. His eyes were glued to her body. Her curvy figure and her angelic face were to die for. The combination of her perky bosoms, decanter shaped waist, perfectly round bottom, and the perfect pair of legs, on flawless, lustrous skin were extremely all seductive. You were right! She was the most gorgeous lady among the four other beauties. Also, the goddess in the hearts of countless men. Her name was Lan Mengchen!

“What are you looking at?” Lan frowned slightly.

“Needless to ask. I’m looking at the world’s most beautiful lady.” Chen smiled.

“You little smart ass. Stop sweet-talking me!” Lan stared at Chen. That adorable face of her when she got angry made her even more lovely and radiant.

Chen’s heart was racing and said, “I’m telling the truth! I can swear to God if you don’t believe in me!”

“No one asked you to swear. If you are going to swear to God, I’m going to swear to every God that I know of in existence!” Lan smiled. Her smile was enough to paralyze everyone around her.

The unbelievable scene was like a nuclear bomb just exploded. The “blast wave” just caused a total destruction on everyone’s brain. Shi Dafeng and Shi Mingwei dropped their jaws on the ground. They could stand being ignored by Lan, because she was from the most prestigious family in Green Vine City. Her family was totally out of their reach and none of them dared to displease her. However, Lan was ignoring them to speak to Chen. This was the worst insult to them. How was it even possible for a family with three hundred million Yuan in a bank account to lose to a poor farmer’s boy. This did not make any sense! Bing was so shocked.

Last night, b*tchy Bing was telling her b*tchy friends about how she dumped Chen and found a new filthy rich boyfriend. Now, she felt her heart dropping, as she saw Chen and the goddess talking happily. She realized she was not the one who dumped Chen, it was the opposite. This new revelation made her face burning hot. It was like she was just slapped by someone continuously for a very long time. Chen felt so satisfied, watching the whole scene unfolding before his eyes.

“Right! Why are you here today?” Lan asked curiously.

Chen was not going to hide anything and told her honestly, “I’m here to sell gold.”

“If that’s the case. You have come to the right place. They give a really good price on whoever wish to sell their gold. Boss Shi, can you check out on my friend’s gold?” Lan said.

She had no idea about the conflict between Shi and Chen. Her words were direct and oblivious.

Naturally, Shi Dafeng put on a smile on his face and nodded, “That’s very nice of you, Ms. Lan. I’m more than willing to help you out.”

Chen was kind of unwilling to sell the gold to Shi Dafeng but he did not want to bring shame to Lan. He took out an ingot from his bag and handed it Shi Dafeng.

“This is two taels of gold which is a hundred grams. The price of gold is three hundred Yuan per gram. This will be a total of thirty thousand Yuan. If you are fine with the price, I can hand you the cash right now.” Shi Dafeng acted casually, hoping to leave a good impression on Ms. Lan.

When Chen heard about the selling price, he was so happy that he almost jumped up the roof. He had a total of ten ingots. It meant he can earn three hundred thousand from selling all ten ingots.

“Hold on right there!”

Shi tried to stop the transaction, “Dad! We can’t buy these ingots! This guy was so poor that he couldn’t afford to even buy his own meals. These ingots must be some kind of stolen goods!”

When Shi Dafeng heard his son just said, he quickly said, “If that’s the case, I’m afraid I can’t purchase the ingots from you. Our customers are all from the upper echelon of society. We care a lot about our reputation. I can’t risk our reputation by buying stolen goods from you. If these are indeed stolen goods, our business will be in ruins.”

Chen smiled and said, “There are a lot of jewelry shops in Green Vine City. I can totally sell to other shops.”

“Hmph! Just go! One call from my dad, no jewelry shops in Green Vine City will buy your ingots!” Shi was laughing arrogantly.

Bing the b*tch tried to make the situation worse by saying, “You are the best, hubby Shi. You must make the call! Let him starve!”

“You... All of you... !” Chen was flustered. He was just a normal student. There was no way for him to fight this rich and powerful family.

“Chen, I’m so sorry. I have no idea there’s a conflict between you and Shi.” She had gotten a gist of the situation. It came to her realization that she made the wrong move.

“That’s alright. You were just being nice.” Chen smiled, quickly healed by her concern.

Lan’s eyebrows moved slightly and said it in a domineering voice, “You can sell your ingots to me. I will buy it all!”

When Shi Dafeng, Shi Mingwei and Yao Bingbing heard what she said, they were all floored. They dared not to do anything that might offend Ms. Lan. If they made her angry, her family might just buy off their business with a call.

“Aren’t you afraid of these ingots being stolen goods?” Chen asked.

“Not at all!”

Lan shook her head and her dreamy eyes were filled with trust, “Poor people are not bad people, I believe that your ingots are not stolen goods. You acquired them legally.”

Chen was so touched. His impression towards her just gone up to a whole new level. Lan swung her hand at the Rolls Royce Phantom that parked not far away from this shop. An old man with white hair walked towards her.

“Miss Lan.” The old man bowed before her. He gave out a peaceful and polite aura. He was slim, and yet, he was as steady as a mountain. He must be some kind of martial arts master. Chen zeroed in on him.

Chapter 7: Five Words That Came Straight From The Sky

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chen was already made clairvoyant by the Eight Diagrams. He knew that this old man’s “Qi” was out of ordinary. He was already eighty years old. Chen was pretty sure that he had fifty years more to live. In other words, he could live up to one hundred and thirty years old. That was just plain crazy. What shocked Chen even more was the fact that this old man was serving Lan’s family. It was pretty scary that there was no bottom to how powerful is Lan’s family. It was no wonder that they were the biggest and most powerful family in Green Vine City.

“Uncle Qin, I would like to buy some ingots. Can you please bring me some cash?” Lan said, not a trace in her voice that she was speaking to a servant. It did not sound like she was ordering a servant to do something. It sounded more like she treating him like an elder.

“Ingots? I thought Ms. Lan never liked this kind of stuff? Do you mind me taking a look at your ingot?” Uncle Qin asked.

“Please. Have a look.” Chen quickly complied, having already a deep sense of respect from the way the man carried himself. Chen quickly handed over the ingot to Uncle Qin.

“Alright.”

Uncle Qin took a quick look at the ingot. He was shocked and asked, “Young man! Are you sure you want to sell this ingot?”

Chen said confusingly, “Yes. I want to sell it. Is there anything wrong with it?”

Even Lan opened up her beautiful and dreamy eyes wide. She had never seen Uncle Qin unnerved in any sort of manner.

“This is an ingot from Tang Dynasty. They’re really rare. In addition to that, it was really well preserved. This made value even higher!” Uncle Qin was holding the ingot up and took a better look at it. It seemed like he couldn’t let go of it.

“Tang Dynasty!?

Chen was shocked and delighted at the same time. The ingots that were given by Brother Zhu were not some ordinary ingots but a box of well-preserved antiques from the Tang Dynasty. Was this how it felt like to suddenly get rich?

“Uncle Qin, can you please give me an estimated price for this ingot? I really want to sell it.” Chen was not interested in antiques. The only that he was interested in right now was to shower himself with money.

“If you truly want to part with it, I would say that the price for this ingot is six hundred thousand Yuan. That would be a really fair price for it.” Uncle Qin said.

What? Six hundred thousand? Chen’s brain short-circuited when he heard the value of his ingots. Thirty thousand shooting up to six hundred thousand was too much for him to handle. The value had increased by twenty times. He possessed ten of the same ingots. In other words, he was going to receive six million from selling his ingots! He couldn’t even figure out what was going on anymore. Other than the head from his village, no other family there had six digits of cash. Chen still owned three golden hairpins and three jade hairpins. This was going to be a huge fortune.

Chen was completely petrified. There was only one sentence in his mind right now. He saw five words floating in the sky; Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!

“Young man, if you do not have any further inquiries, may I have the number of your bank account? I’m going to transfer the money to you right now.” Uncle Chen said in a deep voice.

“Of course, I have no further inquiries!”

“Chen shook his head and tried to calm himself down temporary and said, “I have nine more ingots. Is it possible for Uncle Qin to purchase them altogether?”

“What?! You still have nine of the same ingots?” Uncle Qin was completely shocked by what Chen just said. He thought that the one ingot that he was holding was rare enough as it is. The fact that Chen had ten of it was totally out of his expectations.

“Boy! These antiques are super rare! It’s hard to even replace one nowadays. If you are willing to sell all ten of it, I’m willing to buy all that you have.” It seemed like Uncle Chen had a special interest towards these ingots. He even forgot Ms. Lan was the one who wanted to purchase Chen’s ingots.

“Great! Deal!” Chen took out the rest of the ingots and told him his bank account number.

Without hesitation, Uncle Qin transferred the money to Chen.

“Six million! Six freaking million... I’m going to be filthy rich!” Chen was in the state of euphoria. Every cell in his body was cheering for him. The moment the figure in his bank account changes, his life was going to be transformed drastically.

“Chen, please calm down! You won’t live to spend the money if you die of happiness.” Lan smiled.

Lan’s mood became better after seeing Chen jumping up and down happily. Of course, this meant that someone else would be greatly upset. Shi Dafeng wanted to slap his little shit, Shi Mingwai to death. Shi Dafeng could have spent three hundred thousand Yuan to buy out Chen’s ingots if his asshole son did stop him from buying the ingots from Chen. Now that he knew the true value of those ingots, he realized that he had lost five million and seven hundred thousand Yuan. Shi Dafeng felt like his balls had been smashed into pieces. Bing had no balls but she felt like she was going to vomit blood. She broke up with Chen yesterday and now he had six million in his bank account. Chen could have given her half of his money if she was still his girlfriend. But now, she couldn’t even lay her finger on his money. With this thought, Bing was completely devastated.

After that, Chen and Lan went back to school. Conveniently, Chen had the chance to ride with Lan in her Rolls Royce.

“How come you visited the jewelry shop today? You do not look like that kind of girl who is into jewelry.” Chen asked curiously.

“It’s my grandma’s birthday next week. I wanted to buy her a present but I did not see anything that would suit her.” Chen saw a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

“What kind of jewelry does your grandma like? It’s hard to believe you can’t replace one that your grandma would like in that jewelry shop.” Chen asked.

“My grandma likes simple, elegant antiques. However, the design of jewelries nowadays is just too much. That was why I couldn’t seem to replace anyone that she would like.” Lan sighed.

“Haha! You are in luck!”

Chen smiled and he took everything out from his bag pack and said, “Check it out. Do you see the one that you like here?”

There were three golden hairpins and three jade hairpins from Gao Village. All these were real and original antiques! The design was simple and elegant.

“Master Chen, are you some kind of jewelry seller? Why do you have all these jewelry with you....?” Lan was confused.

“Oh my god! Antiques from Tang Dynasty!”

Uncle Qin was driving and he had spared a glance in the rear-view mirror. His hands almost wracked in spasm, and he barely avoided driving into a bush.

“Uncle Qin!?”

Lan was shocked. Her cute gorgeous face was in a look of total confusion

Uncle Qin was well-known for being a sturdy as a rock, and for having a heart that could rival the calmest rivers. He had a nickname; the Buddha of stone. Having met Chen, he had already lost his composure several times over. It was unbelievable.

“Everything that Mr. Chen possesses is antiques from Tang Dynasty. I can totally recognize them from the designs and patterns!” Uncle Qin said excitedly.

“All these are antiques?!” Lan’s cherry-like tiny mouth’s shape just changed. She was in awe.

“They are not replicas. You can take one without worrying.”

“Alright. I will choose this white jade hairpin. There are ancient Chinese characters written on the hairpin and they carry good meaning. Also, I like the design as well.”

“Uncle Qin, can you estimate the price of this hairpin?” Lan was smiling satisfyingly.

Chen waved his hand and said, “You can save the trouble. I’m going to give this white jade hairpin to you.”

“No way. This hairpin is too precious!” Lan said.

“Just take it!”

Chen put the hairpin on Lan’s palm and handed over the golden hairpin and black jade hairpin to Uncle Qin and said, “I’m going to give these two hairpins to both of you, Uncle Qin and Lan. If you guys were not there to help me, I was going to suffer a big loss.”

“Young man! Don’t be hasty. Do you have any idea of the value of three items you are giving out? They worth more than ten million!” Uncle Qin said in a deep voice.

Chapter 8: Bad Things Are Going To Happen

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“When I was a kid, my parents always told me to do good to those who do good to you. This is not about the money. I simply would like to express my good will to you. Even if these three items are worth more than hundreds of millions, I am still going to give them out without any hesitation because the two of you really helped me out when I was in trouble!”

Chen smiled. Two rows of crystal teeth could be seen.

“Alright, in that case... Thank you, so so much!” Lan whispered softly. Deep inside her heart, she was greatly touched by Chen sincere intentions. There was no way that she could reject his good will. Chen was relieved after Lan accepted his gift. He kept the rest of the hairpins carefully inside his bag. By then, he knew that they were worth a fortune.

“Oh, right! Now that you have so much money inside your bank account. How are you going to spend it?” Lan asked curiously.

“I’m planning to buy a house in Green Vine City. Then, I’m going to invite my parents to stay with me in the new house. I want to make sure they can live a comfortable life. They have already poured out their blood and sweat for me. Oh, if you are free, could you please help me check out some houses here in Green Vine City? I don’t mind spending more money on a house with good environment. Letting my parents live comfortably is my primary concern.”

“Alright!” Lan nodded her head lightly. She was impressed.

What a kind and pure young man! The first thing that came to his mind after receiving six million were his parents! It was a rarity nowadays, for teenagers to put their parents first, before themselves!

“Good lad! I like that attitude! Leave me your contact number afterward. Just give me a call if you face any trouble in the future.” Uncle Qin said, his voice serious and earnest. It was pretty obvious that he liked Chen a lot.

“Alright! If Uncle Qin ever needs my help in the future, just give me a call as well!” Chen said happily.

“Well said!” Uncle Qin laughed.

Looking at the conversation between a young man and an old man, Lan was really amazed. Before serving in Lan’s family, Uncle Qin had been very famous throughout the Jianghu. His name is Qin Yuanshan the Stone Buddha. Although he had retired from Jianghu, his reputation and influence was still as powerful as they were during his prime. Everyone from the upper society in Green Vine City respected him a lot. Even in the Dragon City, his name was widely known as well.

For a long time, a lot of teenagers had wanted to be recognized by Uncle Qin. Unfortunately, none of them were qualified to be acknowledged by him. Chen was the only one who ever acquired recognition from Uncle Qin. However, Chen still did not know the value of Uncle Qin’s promise. Perhaps, if Chen was to step into the Jianghu, he would then know the value of that promise.

At five in the evening, Chen and his roommates got on a taxi and went to the best restaurant in Green Vine City; Fragrant Lake restaurant.

“Fragrant Lake restaurant! I have not been there for a long time!” Zhang stood in front of the door and sighed.

“No way! Second brother, you are from a wealthy family. How is it possible that you don’t come here often?” Li asked shockingly.

“Bullshit! You need to spend at least twenty to thirty thousand yuan every time you dine here. Other than the richest folks, no one else can afford coming here often.” Zhang said seriously.

“Wow! Our very own Chen has made us proud!”

Zhou laughed and urged Chen, “Boss Chen, hurry up! You’ve been playing with your cellphone all the way from our dorm to the restaurant. You should stop now!”

“You guys can order the dishes first, I will just snatch one more Red Envelope before I come in.” Chen lowered his head and continued to tap on his cellphone like there was no tomorrow. When Chen was walking out of school, someone from the group had given out a huge number of Red Envelopes. The whole group was flooded with Red Envelopes. However, there were hundreds of thousands of members in the group. Chen tried his best to snatch at least one Red envelope but it seemed that the God of luck was not with him today.

The “Red Envelopes Flood” was receding. It was inevitable that the Red Envelopes would be all gone in a while. Chen decided to put all of his strength, tapping on his cellphone’s screen in a frenzy, hoping to get at least one Red Envelope.

“Where the hell did this bastard come from? Do you not know that good dogs never block the way? Get the f*ck out!” All of a sudden, an arrogant young man walked towards Chen.

This guy had a potty mouth. Chen was busy tapping away for the Red Envelopes. He had no time to respond to him. So, he merely shuffled to the side a little. That arrogant young man was not satisfied with his move and scolded him, “What the f*ck is this? You’re dressed in rags, you beggar! How dare you mar the front Fragrant Lake Restaurant? Get the f*ck out of my sight!”

“Wenfeng! Stop messing around!”

An amicable looking old man walked towards them. There was a group of well-dressed middle-aged men and women following behind him closely.

“Grandpa, I’m afraid that this beggar was going to get in your way.” The arrogant young man turned to the elder, his tone taking a 180-degree turn.

“How many times have I told you not to judge a book by its cover!?” Elder Wen said, in his deep, regal voice.

“Yes, grandpa. I understand.” Wenfeng nodded his head. He did not dare say another word in front of his grandpa.

“Young man, I should have taught my grandson the way he treats other. I hope you that will not hold any grudge.” Elder Wen walked towards Chen to express his apology.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You got a Red Envelope from Shennong and received three bottles of Potion of Hundred Herbs. It has been deposited inside your treasure chest.]

“Yay! Finally got one!”

Chen burst out in joy. It startled Wen, the old man.

“He’s not just a beggar but also a crazy guy.” Wenfeng said softly. His grandpa gave him a stare. He quickly swallowed the rest of his sentence.

Chen calmed himself down. He ignored Wenfeng, but there was something about Wen that he liked. He was about to reply respectfully, but suddenly noticed that there was a black aura circling over the top of his head. It was the sign of great danger.

“Old man, forgive me if my words offend you. I believe I need to inform you of this.”

Chen did his usual prediction and told him, “Something really bad will happen to you today. You must travel thirteen miles from here to avoid this life-threatening danger!”

“F*ck your mom’s cunt! Today is my grandpa’s birthday! How dare you curse him! Do you have a death wish?!” Wenfeng shouted at Chen angrily.

All the middle-aged men and women were glaring at him in turn.

“I have said what I wanted to say. It’s up to you now whether you want to believe my words. Also, you can scold me but you have no right to bring my parents in. That’s my only warning, and if you choose to continue insulting them, I will make sure that your life is miserable!” Chen turned around and walked away after he finished talking.

He wasn’t a bad guy, but he wasn’t inclined to helping every Dick and Harry on the street. Only a dumb guy would wear himself out trying to help those who would not even recognize help if you waved it under their noses.

“Asshole! How much more you want to say?! Why, I’ll...” Wenfeng rolled up his sleeves, and was approaching Chen with his fists raised.

Elder Wen held him back and let Chen leave. Maybe others thought Chen was just trying to say something to scare them but Elder Wen was actually slightly convinced. This was because, there was indeed a villa that he would occasionally be used to meditate, thirteen miles outside of this city. No random stranger would mention that distance for no reason. This was getting interesting.

“Grandpa, let’s go in. That guy was a crazy nutjob. Just ignore him.” Wenfeng said.

“Hmm... Okay.”

Elder Wen was not all superstitious. His skepticism quickly overruled his initial conviction. Everything was fine. It was probably just a coincidence from a spiteful youth. What sort of dangers could possibly befall upon him?

Chapter 9: Potion of Hundred Herbs

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chen and his roommates reserved the Emperor Box in the restaurant. It was something like a private, high and uppity room, with full sliding doors, and where a table would be prepared inside, leaving the diners in full privacy. Chen truly intended to treat his friends to the best of his efforts. He ordered the best and the most expensive food on the menu. This meal would probably cost over fifty thousand Yuan. All four of them were enjoying the food to the fullest. Usually, Chen would simply tag along, eating whatever they ate, without preferences of his own. This was the first time he was treating all three of them to a good meal. Even, the slightly wealthier Zhang could not have afforded this meal. Naturally, Chen became the center of attention on the table. He was feeling truly smug.

Just when everyone finished their meal and were getting ready to leave the restaurant, the doors of the Emperor Box were slid open. A man walked towards Chen, his face filled with dread and anxiety.

“Little brother, my father just fell into coma. He’s not responding to anything. I would like you to come with me.” the guy said, anxiously.

“What the hell is happening?” Zhou and Li were confused.

“Wen... Wen Tianyuan!” Zhang opened up his eyes wide in shock as he studied the face of the man that stood in front of him.

This man was one of the middle-aged folk who had closely followed behind Elder Wen. If Zhang reacted in such a manner, this man had to be somebody.

However, Chen only rejected him crossly. “I’m not going! I tried to warn you guys just now but none of you believed me. Why bother coming to me now?”

Zhang’s eyeballs almost fell out when he saw what just happened in front of him. Throughout the entirety of Green Vine City, there were no more than five people alive, who would dare to reject Wen Tianyuan’s request. Chen was acting like an arrogant son of a b*tch.

However, Wen only apologized profusely. “It was truly our fault! Initially, I felt too ashamed to ask this favor of you. We treated you badly. But it’s late at night, and it will take a while before the ambulance gets here. If you don’t help me, I fear that my father is going to... Please, I’m begging you right now, as Wen Tianyuan. ”

Beg. This word did not exist in Wen Tianyuan’s dictionary. Right now, at this moment, he had bowed down his head and was begging Chen. Wen Tianyuan’s overwhelming concern had forced him into such a posture. You don’t see a powerful man bowing down like that everyday. Chen’s heart was not made of steel. “Fine! It is only right that I save a person’s life if it’s within my capabilities. I’ll come with you.”

“Thank you, little brother,! Thank you so much....” Wen Tianyuan could not stop saying thank you. After that, he led Chen out of the Emperor Box.

“Second brother, why are you stunned?” Li smacked the head of the petrified Zhang and asked.

“Wen... Wen Tianyuan just asked for a favor from our third brother. The CEO of Wen Organization came and begged our third brother!!!” Zhang was still in shock. His facial features were completely twisted.

“Wen organization? You mean the second biggest family in Green Vine City; the Wen Family?” Zhou was in shocked as well.

“....” Li was speechless. He started to have doubts about his life.

Inside the Heaven’s Box, everyone from Wen Family was gathered around the sofa. Elder Wen was lying down on the sofa. There was no movement from him at all. His face was pale, and his lips were purple. He was in critical condition. There was a saying, having a wise old man at home would be like owning a world-class, precious jewel. Elder Wen had contributed a lot to his family. If something bad happened to him, Wen Family would definitely collapse. Everyone was really worried about him. The atmosphere inside the box was tense and gloomy.

“Clear the way! Clear the way! Mr Chen is coming!”

Wen Tianyuan rushed into the box with big steps. It was as if everyone saw hope in Chen. The atmosphere lightened notably. “All of you, please stand back, the old man needs some fresh air.” Chen waved his hands about.

The middle-aged men and women were very cooperative. They quickly backed away. However, Wenfeng curled his lips in disdain and said, “What the f*ck is he trying to prove? He’s just a f*cking conman. How dare he give us orders?”

“You better get hell out from my sight! If anything happens to Elder Wen, I will hold you responsible.” Chen stared at him and said seriously. Wen had kept picking on Chen in front of Fragrant Lake Restaurant and he had truly gotten on his nerves. Chen couldn’t take it anymore. So, he repeated Wenfeng’s own words back to his face.

“What?!”

Wenfeng was furious and said, “F*cker! How dare you say that to me? I’m going make your life f*cking miserable!”

“Wenfeng! Get out!” Wen Tianyuan scolded him.

Wenfeng was terrified, but he was unwilling to lose face. “Uncle! I’m the one who is going to be the future inheritor of Wen Family! How dare you embarrass me just because of this motherf*cker?”

“Mr Wen, I’m here to help, not to be scolded. I won’t take much of this. I’m going to leave this place and wish you luck.” Chen said it in an icy cold voice.

“You son of the b*tch! Looks like you are getting more and more cocky! If I don’t kill you today. I’m going to change my family name...” Wenfeng stared at Chen fiercely and shouted.

*Slap!*

Before he could finish his sentence, Tianyuan’s huge palm landed on his face. It echoed throughout the room. Wenfeng fell on the ground, a red palm print starting to appear on his fair and tender face.

“Uncle... You slapped me because of this asshole? Y’all just wait until my dad comes back! I’m going to make sure all of you suffer!”

Wenfeng covered his cheek and rushed to his feet. His eyes were burning with rage. He quickly ran to door and made his exit.

“Bastard!” Wen Tianyuan shot at his nephew’s retreating back and turned to Chen, “Mr Chen, can you please save my father now? It can’t be delayed any longer.”

“Sure. Can you please back away as well?” Chen said calmly. Wen Tianyuan dared not say another word. He quickly backed away. With his back facing everyone else, he took out his cellphone and accessed his treasure chest. There was one Monkey Fur, a Charm of Marriage, and the three bottles of the Potion of Hundred Herbs that he had just received earlier.”

[Potion of Hundred Herbs. Produced by Shennong. The effect of this medicine is normal. Do you wish to withdraw it?]

Yes! Chen clicked on the screen, and a small, white ancient bottle appeared in his hand. It was made of china (the porcelain). Shennong was one of the Three Kings. He was a deity! If this medicine was ‘normal’ for deities, it should be extremely effective on humans!

Chen figured that there was no need to even check the man’s condition. He opened the bottle and poured the green fluid into his mouth. His faith in the power of the medicine wasn’t misplaced. Once the green fluid entered his mouth, the old man’s face immediately changed. The healthy flush of pink started to flow into his pale face and purple lips. At the same time, Chen saw the black aura that was circling on top of him starting to fade away. There was a saying; if you escape death, good things are going to happen to you. This old man would probably live for another ten good years now.

*cough*

Elder Wen finally woke up, coughing lightly. Everyone started to cheer happily. They were also viewing Chen in a different light. They were impressed and intrigued at the same time.

“Young man...Thank you so much, for saving this old man’s life. I will definitely repay you with all my heart!” Wen said it in, his voice rich and deep.

It was a drastic change, from a deep coma to total awareness. He knew clearly, that he had just escaped from the gates of hell and it was all because Chen was willing to save him.

Chapter 10: Safe In The West Side Of The City

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“This is a Super VVIP card from the Wen Organization. With this card, you can acquire anything from any companies that are under the Wen Organization for free. Also, you will be treated like a CEO with this card in your hand!”

Elder Wen took out a exquisite looking card, and handed it to Chen with both hands. Every Wen Family members’ eyes were filled with a twinge of envy when they saw Chen receiving the card. Being treated like a CEO meant that Chen was now on the same level as Wen Tianyuan. Only one other card had ever been given out in the entirety of Green Vine City. It was an extremely rare item.

“I’ll take my leave if there’s nothing else.”

Chen had no idea what Wen Organization meant for him now. He put away his VVIP card and left the scene in hurry. Right after he left the box, he took out his cellphone and checked on it, because it had started vibrating furiously the moment Elder Wen had regained his conscious. Compared to the VVIP card, Chen actually cared more about the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms.

Ding!

[You have saved an old man’s life. You have gained one point for your Triple Realms Merit. You still need ninety points of Triple Realms Merit to go to your next level.]

“What is Triple Realms Merit? What is the next level? What the hell are all these?”

Chen went blank for a short while. He thought he had received another Red Envelope, but it was just a message from the system.

[Triple Realms Merit; everything in this world happens for a reason! Do good deeds to accumulate more merits. It can be used to increase your level!]

“Increase level? Are these experience points? After I accumulate certain number of merit, I will be able to increase my level?”

Chen continued to read.

Ding! [Below are what you can become as you level up]

Mundane Mortal, Benevolent Mortal, Super Philanthropist, Philanthropist of the Third, Philanthropist of the Tenth, Divine Mortal, Deity of Earth, Deity of Heaven, True Deity, Grand Celestial, Golden Grand Celestial, Grand Celestial of Obsidian, The High God, The Golden High God, The High God of Obsidian, Primal Archbishop, Primal Golden Celestial, Primal of All Deities.

“What the hell! I can become a God just by accumulating Triple Realm Merit points!”

Chen was so shocked that his eye balls almost fell to the ground.

What would it mean to become a God? Would I be able to travel between heaven and earth anytime I want? Would I be immortal? Chen was completely floored by the idea. Chen put away his phone, paid the bill and called his three roommates to go back to the university together. Inside the cab, Chen simply explained what he did to Elder Wen back at the restaurant. He skipped the part on how he had his prediction on Elder Wen. Also, he told them that the Potion of Hundred Herbs was a traditional medicine from his village. Three of his roommate were in a mix of confusion and jealousy upon hearing it. All three of them wanted to hug Chen’s leg.

Elder Wen, was the backbone of Wen Family. The king of the Wen organization. It was everyone’s dream to have a good relationship with him.

“That car behind us has been following us for quite some time. A friend of yours?” All of a sudden, the cab driver asked.

“No, we don’t know that car. Probably heading the same direction as us.” Zhang, Li, and Zhou took a glance and nonchalantly turned back.

However, Chen studied it with his divine prediction.

“Shit! Bad luck! I have to travel three miles west to cast away the bad luck.” Chen was startled.

“Sir, can you stop at the intersection up ahead? I’m getting down there.” Chen said in a deep voice.

“What happened, third brother?” Zhou was really concerned.

“Nothing happened, You guys carry on. I have something to deal with.” Chen told them, keeping his tone light. He quickly rushed out from the cab right after the cab stopped.

He hailed another cab right away, to travel to the west side of the city. The car was still following the cab that Chen had transitioned into. It was pretty obvious that Chen was their target. However, Chen was no longer anxious. His prediction told him that everything was going to be fine.

There were a lot of pubs, disco, and entertainment centers at the west side of the city. It was a truly hot spot. The best way to describe the place was, it’s total chaos. The people who came to this part of the city were gangsters, mafia, and small-time criminals. Also, there were a lot of gang-related conflicts happening there every day. Fighting was constantly going on at this side of the city, and gang wars were commonplace.

Chen was well aware of all this. He was truly puzzled. “How the hell is everything going to be fine for me, at this shithole?”

Right at that moment, an irritating voice came from behind.

“Asshole! Stop right there!”

A young man with a red palm print on his face ran to Chen. This young man was none other than Wenfeng. Beside him, stood a man who could have rivaled Schwarzenegger himself in terms of muscles. It was his personal bodyguard.

“It’s you!” Chen stared at him and he understood what was happening instantly.

“My parents had never laid their hands on me ever since I was a kid, until now! Wen Tianyuan laid his hand on me, because of you, you little piece of shit!”

Wenfeng stared at Chen like a lunatic and said, “I can’t do anything to Wen Tianyuan before my parents come back! But, I can definitely crush you, you little f*cker, like a piece of cake!”

Chen smiled knowingly and said, “I advise you to turn around and go back to where you came from. If not, you will be spilling blood soon.”

“F*ck your mother right in the asshole!”

Wenfeng was furious and he ordered his bodyguard, “Crush this f*cker right now! I want him to suffer to a point where death would be an escape!”

“Sir, just leave this to me! I can beat up a dozen of malnourished kids like him!” The bodyguard rubbed his fists together. Then, he walked towards Chen, ready to beat him up.

The bodyguard was over six feet tall. His arms were as big as Chen’s thighs. The old Chen would have fled the scene when he was faced with this kind of problem. But, he was different now.

Chen only called out to Wenfeng, ignoring the giant. “Wenfeng! I did warn you not to bring in my parents when you scold me! I will make sure that you suffer today!”

“Asshole! Speaking arrogantly will be your last act before your death! I’m going to destroy you with only a punch! You have no right to make others slapped my master1” The bodyguard said condescendingly. He did not even consider Chen as his opponent. He was just another sandbag.

When the bodyguard was getting closer and closer to Chen. Deep inside his heart, he can still feel fear and anxiety. Although he knew everything was going to be fine, his body was too small and weak. He had to rely fully on the external force. If something was off course, he will definitely become a disabled person with no ability to take care of himself. The fact that he had to entrust his safety to external force makes him really unsatisfied. There were no sense of security and solid feeling.

“I want to become stronger! I want to use my own strength to solve my own problem.”

Chen decided secretly after this matter got solved, he will ask Zhu brother to lend the power from Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms to improve his strength!”

He could deliver fear to others when he possessed his own strength.

“Die asshole!” The bodyguard lifted up his punch with two steps forward and it was going to land on Chen’s face.

“Oi! Oi!”

Right at this second, a middle-aged man from a short distance walked towards them with a beer bottle on his left hand and his right hand tapped on Wenfeng’s shoulder.
