Chapter 901: The Overall Situation Has Been Decided
Chen Daoyi tapped his finger lightly on the table!
"Don't bother with how I convinced him—joining my Chen family as a son-in-law only benefits you, no downsides!"
"Xiaoxi is definitely worthy of you. A gentle and tender embrace is right in front of you!"
Jiangnan looked troubled: "Let me think it over..."
Xia Yao's wolf ears perked up as she glared at Jiangnan with murderous intent!
You still want to think it over? Am I not feral enough? Do I have enough *ahem*?
She has animal ears, but do I? She has a tail, but do I?
Chen Xi stepped forward: "Although we're still strangers, I firmly believe that familiarity grows with time!"
"I, Chen Xi, am no worse than anyone!"
With that, she raised her head and puffed out her chest, looking at Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao!
Jiangnan covered his face: What nonsense about familiarity growing with time? Are all you great clans this direct?
Chen Daoyi: "What is there to think about? You're a smart man!"
"Becoming a member of my Chen family—if you want to see my family history, that's not out of the question!"
"Then you'll realize just how naive your current thoughts really are!"
Jiangnan shuddered and said with disgust: "Who the hell would want to see your family's crap? Disgusting! And you treat it like a treasure?"
"Old man, why do you have to talk about such filthy things? I'm not agreeing!"
"Joining as a son-in-law is even more impossible! I'm just a child who's over two hundred months old!"
And once I become your son-in-law, I'll definitely be bullied!
They'd probably make me sleep in a doghouse or something. Then I'd make a call to get Red Dragon and the others to help!
With a hundred thousand Dragon Abyss soldiers coming, they'd each slap me in the face and tell me I'm the one causing all the trouble!
Jiangnan shivered and became even more determined!
Chen Daoyi's face darkened: How is my family history disgusting? Explain yourself!
[From Chen Daoyi's Resentment +1000!]
"Not agreeing? Think it over carefully!"
Jiangnan pouted: "Nothing to think about. And changing my surname? Absolutely not!"
Chen Nan? That sounds terrible, right?
Chen Daoyi sneered: "What? Is taking the Chen surname such a grievance for you? As far as I know, you came from an orphanage, didn't you? Why bother getting tangled up over a surname?"
"Do you think the higher-ups are protecting you, so you don't need to rely on my Chen family?"
"Only because you're useful are they propping you up. If you weren't, you'd mean nothing in their eyes!"
"How long can they protect you? A lifetime? And even if they wanted to, could they?"
Chen Daoyi's eyes gradually grew dangerous!
"I have a hundred ways to put you to death. Don't court disaster!"
"The moment you used my Chen family's Spirit Gauze, you only had one path left! No choice!"
Jiangnan squinted: "I, Jiangnan, may not have parents, but my surname Jiang represents Jiangcheng, my hometown! It's the place that raised me!"
"A man must not forget his roots! If I want something, I'll earn it with my own hands!"
"Threatening me, huh? Fine! Let's see how you try to kill me!"
With that, Jiangnan teleported onto the conference table, pulled a megaphone out of the Alternate Dimension, and shouted at the parade ground!
ꉂꉂ☌(ᵒ̌口ᵒ̌๐)
"Converge spiritual energy at the Shanzhong acupoint, pass through Yutang, Zigong, Huagai, Xuanji, then to Lingtai, then through Baihui, Houding, Qiangjian..."
He rattled off the instructions, his voice echoing across the entire parade ground!
The students were stunned for a moment—it was Brother Nan's voice? What was he up to now?
It sounded like he was talking about acupoints. Instinctively, they followed along!
As the spiritual energy flowed through those acupoints, a spiritual energy circulation diagram emerged!
Chen Daoyi's ears perked up. That sounded familiar!
Hell! It's the starting spiritual energy route for the Spirit Gauze!
"What the hell! Shut up! Shut your mouth!"
[From Chen Daoyi's Resentment +1000!]
Spiritual energy exploded from his body as he raised his fist to punch Jiangnan!
But Jiangnan teleported above the parade ground and turned back to make a funny face at Chen Daoyi!
ू(ꆧꇴꆧूˆ)
"Can't hit me! Nyeah nyeah nyeah!"
"Also, go through Shendao, Zhizhong, Changqiang... don't take the wrong path!"
Even Zhao Dezhu started running the spiritual energy circulation diagram, and soon his spiritual energy began to dissipate, on the verge of forming the basic Spirit Gauze!
Chen Daoyi's eyes were bloodshot, his teeth grinding so hard they sparked!
"Shut up! Don't blabber it all out! Everyone's listening! I was wrong! Ancestor! You're my damn ancestor!"
If you keep this up, how many of my Chen family girls will be left to marry off?
Jiangnan teleported back to the reception area, extended his hand, and his phone's QR code was already displayed!
"300 million! Hush money! Quick, make it snappy!"
Chen Daoyi was stunned, then raged: "You're insane! Going too far!"
Jiangnan: "Also Mingmen, Yaoyangguan, Changqiang..."
[From Chen Daoyi's Resentment +1000!]
"Stop! The hush money will be sent right now! Please spare your golden words!"
Chen An didn't dare delay and immediately transferred 300 million!
Only then did Jiangnan sit back contentedly: "See? I told you, I'll earn what I want with my own hands. I don't need your charity!"
Chen Daoyi's face was black as coal!
You sure work fast! Live demonstration, huh? You don't need charity—you just rob me outright!
[From Chen Daoyi's Resentment +1000!]
Jiangnan shrugged: "Now do you see who holds the initiative?"
Chen Daoyi sat back, his face dark: "What are your conditions?"
Jiangnan said calmly: "Very simple. I want to share the cultivation method of Spirit Gauze armor condensation with the public!"
"As the most basic spiritual energy application, it should be printed in Spirit Martial textbooks!"
"If you agree, I'll give you the complete Spirit Gauze cultivation method!"
Chen Daoyi's eyes turned red: "Damn it! No way!"
"Are you crazy? What good does that do you?"
Jiangnan shrugged: "It doesn't do me much good, but it will reduce casualties among Spirit Martial forces and give the explorers opening up spirit ruins more means to protect themselves!"
"That way, there won't be so many broken families, so many children losing their parents!"
"And it will provide a solid barrier for the kids growing up, helping them grow safely!"
"This is the right thing to do!"
Chen Daoyi snarled: "Bullshit! Do you think you're some saint? They're all people who have nothing to do with you! Why do you care if they live or die?"
"Using my Chen family's Spirit Gauze to do good deeds and earn yourself a reputation? Shameless!"
Jiangnan said coldly: "Don't forget! Without me, Jiangnan, the Chen family's Spirit Gauze would only be a little vest! You've all been training wrong, and you'll never condense armor!"
"The reason I'm asking for your opinion is out of respect! Because this is your ancestor's hard work!"
"If I just share it directly, could you stop me? By releasing the Spirit Gauze method, you get the complete method! The Chen family doesn't lose!"
Chen Daoyi's fists cracked loudly!
"Absolutely impossible! Don't even think about getting me to agree! Spirit Gauze can only be the Chen family's Spirit Gauze!"
"Are you determined to go head-to-head with me? You'll regret it!"
"Then you'll kneel before me and beg to listen, I..."
Jiangnan looked extremely annoyed and snapped his fingers!
A miniature Void Black Hole appeared right next to the locking bolt on the hydraulic lever of the swivel office chair under Chen Daoyi!
The bolt was chewed off in an instant!
The hydraulic rod shot out, and the foam cushion sank!
With a *pfft* sound!
Chen Daoyi, who was sitting on the chair, dropped thirty centimeters!
His words came to an abrupt halt. Sweat poured from his forehead, his face turned sallow, and his facial features all scrunched together!
(‧̣̥̇꒪ͦ◞ж◟꒪ͦ‧̣̥̇)!!!
The atmosphere in the entire reception area went dead silent. Xiao Chuihuo shuddered and looked away in discomfort.
Zhao Dezhu instinctively covered his rear, feeling a cold draft.
Jiangnan said apologetically: "S-sorry about that! Our academy is poor. These chairs have been used for years. It's understandable that it broke!"
"No need to pay for the chair! Old Chen, you must have been startled!"
Chen Daoyi's mouth hung open, his eyes full of bloodshot veins. For a long time, he couldn't utter a single word.
[From Chen Daoyi's Resentment +1000!]
[From...]
Chen An wiped his sweat and hurriedly helped Chen Daoyi by the arm along with Chen Ling!
"Dad?"
Chen Daoyi said anxiously: "No! Don't move me! I can't move right now! Give me a moment!"
Xiong Er looked enlightened: "Could this be what they mean by 'the overall situation has been decided'?"
Xiao Chuihuo: "Pfft hahaha!"
Forgive me, I couldn't hold it in! That interpretation is on a whole other level!
Jiangnan gnashed his teeth in frustration: Damn it! Xiong Er got the first shot again!
He's learned all my essence!
Chen Daoyi's face turned green. He said angrily: "Help me up!"
(‧̣̥̇◞˃᷄0˂᷅◟) Ooh-hoo~ Ooh-hoo-hoo~
The two managed to lift Chen Daoyi to his feet!
It turned out that the foam cushion of the swivel chair had been pierced by the hydraulic rod, revealing the metallic hydraulic cylinder standing upright on the cushion!
It sent chills down everyone's spines!
Chen Daoyi's legs were trembling. He glared hatefully at Jiangnan, his eyes glistening.
"Just you wait! This isn't over! Let's go home!"
Saying that, he was escorted out of the meeting room by Chen An and Chen Ling, with a conspicuous hole in his tight-fitting training uniform.
Chen Xi gritted her teeth, her small fists turning white. She gave Jiangnan one last deep look.
"I'll prove it to you! Hmph!"
With that, she turned and walked away, her hair flinging across Jiangnan's face!
[From Chen Xi's Resentment +777!]
[From...]
Jiangnan was stunned: What do you want to prove to me?
