Chapter 182: I'm Your New Boss
The next morning, Chen Tian woke up feeling refreshed.
He could hear the birds chirping outside his window, filling the room with a sense of tranquility.
"She's still asleep," Chen Tian thought as he looked at the girl, who looked like an angel sleeping peacefully beside him.
He couldn't help but smile at her appearance, her delicate features, and her peaceful expression.
Chen Tian gently brushed a strand of hair away from her face, careful not to wake her.
Unfortunately for him, as if feeling his touch, the girl started opening her eyes.
"You awake?" Chen Tian murmured to Yuan Ning, who had just opened her eyes.
There was a hint of sleepiness in Yuan Ning's eyes.
Chen Tian noticed a droplet of saliva at the corner of her mouth and wiped it delicately with his thumb.
A deep blush appeared on the girl's face as she realized what she was doing and how she must have looked while sleeping.
She quickly sat up, straightening her disheveled hair and avoiding eye contact with Chen Tian.
Now that she was fully awake, Yuan Ning felt a rush of embarrassment over her disheveled appearance.
She couldn't help but feel self-conscious in front of Chen Tian.
"Hahaha!" Chen Tian chuckled softly, breaking the tension in the air.
"Don't worry, you still looked beautiful even while sleeping." Chen Tian used his Qi to write in the air with his finger, causing the words to shimmer and disappear.
Chen Tian found that it would be the best way to communicate with Yuan Ning, as she can't hear.
Of course, this method could only be used when they were alone.
Yuan Ning blushed, feeling a mix of relief and flattery as she read the words written in the air.
She could only bow her head, her heart feeling lighter.
"Okay, let's go. I will take you to a nice place where you can make friends," Chen Tian wrote in the air, a mischievous smile playing on his lips.
Yuan Ning's eyes lit up with excitement, and she nodded eagerly.
With that, Chen Tian took Yuan Ning's hand and led her towards the door.
Before he left the mansion, Chen Tian had made sure that the old man followed him, as he would get his revenge from the men who killed his family.
Outside the mansion, the group of subordinates still didn't know what happened to Yi Guo and thought that they were still protecting the mansion.
Both times Chen Tian sneaked out without anyone noticing, and the reason they didn't hear the sound of gunshot was because Yi Guo Underground had soundproofed so no one could hear what happened inside.
This time, Chen Tian didn't sneak out and came face-to-face with the group of subordinates.
He still has to avenge the old man, as promised.
"Who are you?!!" Seeing an unknowing figure coming out of the mansion, the group of subordinates immediately raised their guard.
They immediately took out their weapons and pointed them at Chen Tian, ready to attack if necessary.
But they hesitated after seeing the old man beside Chen Tian, whom they recognized as the head butler and servant of Yi Guo.
A few seconds later, someone approached the old man and asked, "What is going on here? Who is this person beside you?" The guard asked.
He had never seen Chen Tian enter the mansion before, and the sudden appearance of the old man with him raised suspicions.
Something was wrong!
Before the old man could reply, Chen Tian opened his mouth and spoke confidently, "From now on, I'm your new boss." Chen Tian's voice echoed with authority, his voice cutting through the tension in the air.
Chen Tian used a bit of his Qi to make his voice boom with power, causing the guard and the old man to take a step back in surprise.
The force behind his words sent shivers down their spines, making it clear that he was not to be trifled with.
Of course, there will still be idiots who don't see their situation and will try to challenge Chen Tian's.
"You! Who do you think you are?" One of the guards blurted out, his voice laced with defiance.
Chen Tian's eyes narrowed as he locked his gaze on the guard, a faint smirk playing on his lips.
"So the first one took the bait," Chen Tian thought to himself.
He had expected resistance, so he wasn't surprised, but on the contrary, he was happy.
"Like I said before, I am your new boss, the one you don't want to mess with," Chen Tian responded calmly, his voice filled with an air of authority.
The guards who heard Chen Tian became angry at his bold statement.
"How did this guy think you could just waltz in here and claim to be our boss?" One of the guards muttered angrily.
"Master Yi Guo wouldn't stand for this," another guard chimed in.
Chen Tian smiled, knowing that he had successfully ruffled their feathers. He had anticipated their resistance, and this was all part of his plan.
"Unfortunately, your boss is already fucking animals to death," Chen Tian replied calmly, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
The guards glared at him, their anger now mixed with disbelief.
How could he say that to their boss?
If the Yi Guo heard Chen Tian's daring comment, there would surely be consequences.
"You traitor!" Suddenly, one of the guards shouted, his face turning red with fury.
His shout was directed at the old man who was standing behind Chen Tian.
"Did you betray our boss?!" The old man remained unfazed by the guard's accusation.
The old man looked at the guard who had shouted at him, and a glint of hatred flashed in his eyes.
How could he not know who was with that person?
He had memorized the faces of everyone who killed his family, and the one in front of him was none other than one of them.
The old man's heart was filled with a burning desire for revenge, but he knew that now was not the time to act.
Instead, he calmly replied to the guard, "I didn't have to betray anyone, and what if I did? What could you do?" The old man's response shocked the guard, who was taken aback by the old man's audacity.
The man greeted his teeth with anger, but deep inside he was smirking at the old man's foolishness.
He always hated this bastard old man who stayed around Yi Guo like a shadow.
He also wanted to rise in ranks and prove his worth to Yi Guo so he could get women and power.
But the old man's presence disturbed his plans.
"Brothers, did you hear what this traitor said about our boss? He betrayed the boss and sold out our secrets to the enemy," the guard exclaimed to the other guards.
"How dare you betray the boss?"
"You traitor, we should just kill him with that man next to him"
"Hehehe!! I will take the girl beside him; she looks like a doll, perfect for my wife's candidate."
The one who was friends with that guy started making the matter worse by instigating the guards, "Yeah, let's show them what happens when you cross our boss. We'll make an example out of both of them!" The tension in the place grew as the guards surrounded the old man and his companion, their anger fueling their desire for revenge.
Yuan Ning just looked at the chaos unfolding before her, feeling a mix of fear and helplessness.
She hid behind Chen Tian as she sank her head on his shoulder, seeking comfort and protection.
Chen Tian just looked with indifference as the guards continued to surround the old man and his companion.
Chen Tian was trying to find the moles that he needed to remove within the guards' ranks.
He didn't want any bug to ruin his plans, especially when it involved his family protection.
Inside the guards ranks, Chen Tian could see some of them hesitating; some were yet to decide; the other half were pointing their weapon at him; some of them had smiles on their faces.
Without further hesitation, Chen Tian swiftly made his move.
|Boom|
An explosive aura filled the air as Chen Tian unleashed some of his cultivation base.
The moment his pressure filled the air, the guards were crushed under the immense pressure, their bodies unable to withstand the power emanating from Chen Tian.
Some were thrown back, their bones shattering upon impact.
They were crushed directly into the ground; some of them had pale faces as they struggled to breathe under the weight of Chen Tian's pressure.
Chen Tian turned back to Yuan Ning, who was still standing behind him.
He closed the girl's eyes, which surprised her slightly.
After closing her eyes, the pressure on certain guards instantly increased.
|Bluurrr|
Half of them had their bodies explode from the sheer force of Chen Tian's power.
Blood splattered across the remaining guards as their comrades' bodies disintegrated in front of them. The old man, witnessing the horrifying display, could feel his heart pounding in his chest. He realized then, with a mix of awe and fear, that Chen Tian was not to be trifled with.
After killing half the guards, Chen Tian retreated his pressure back to normal, leaving the rest of the guards trembling in terror.
The remaining guards dropped to their knees.
Chen Tian's blue eyes shone slightly into a red hue as a fire started to burn the blood and body parts in the area.
He could have burned half the guards with his fire, but he wanted to make the others fear him, and what was the best thing?
After seeing the bodies of your comrades explode to pieces, it's hard not to be terrified.
'Better than burning them alive,' Chen Tian thought to himself.
