Tycoon War God

”Young Master Mu?”

Chu Zhengbo frowned. The name felt familiar, but he couldn’t quite place it.

”Family Head, terrible news!”

Just then, a Chu Family servant ran over in a panic. ”The Fifth Madame has disappeared!”

”What?”

Chu Zhengbo was furious. ”A bunch of useless trash! You can’t even keep an eye on one person!”

First, someone trespassed on his back mountain, and now the woman he was about to marry had vanished. Chu Zhengbo felt his chest burn with rage.

”Send men to find her! If you can’t, don’t bother coming back!”

Chu Zhengbo immediately arranged for a search party.

”Family Head, she ran toward the back mountain!” a bodyguard rushed over, his face pale.

”What?”

Chu Zhengbo roared with anger, ”After her! And find those two beasts while you’re at it!”

In an instant, countless bodyguards from the Chu Family sped toward the back mountain.

”I don’t care if it’s Young Master Mu or Young Master Shui. If they dare cause trouble on Chu Family territory, they’re courting death!”

Chu Zhengbo spoke with killing intent. ”Forget Jiangling, even in all of Handong Province, if I will it, my Chu Family is the sky!”

Even Chu Zhengbo went himself, not only to personally drag the woman back, but also to kill Lin Mu with his own hands!

Seeing Chu Zhengbo charging toward the back mountain, Elder Fan sighed heavily. ”Alas, this time, the Chu Family is finished.”

”Elder Fan, what’s going on? How is the Chu Family finished?” one of the tycoons asked.

”Yes, Elder Fan, and who is this Young Master Mu you mentioned?”

Though the Chu Family was low-profile, it still held an extremely high status in Handong Province.

Could there really be someone the Chu Family wouldn’t dare to offend?

”Young Master Mu? The name sounds familiar... I just can’t quite place it,” someone said.

”Elder Fan, could the Young Master Mu you’re talking about be Director Lin of Coiling Dragon Bay, the recent talk of the town... Lin Mu?” someone suddenly blurted out.

”Correct, it is he,” Elder Fan sighed, a hint of respect in his eyes. ”Besides him, who else would dare claim the title of ’Young Master’? In the entire Handong Province, there is only one!”

”What? It’s really him?!”

The crowd cried out in shock.

Lin Mu was a legendary figure in Handong Province now.

Legend had it that in just a few days, he transformed Coiling Dragon Bay into a Cave Heaven and Blessed Land. Even the top tycoons of Handong Province had to show him deference, and he earned billions in a single day.

Not only that, but the richest man in Jiangling, the Mayor of Jiangling, the Handong tycoon Xie Dingtian, and a host of powerful figures in the business world were all Lin Mu’s people.

The Fang and Wang Families were destroyed because of him.

Half the tycoons of Handong Province called him Young Master, and the heroes of the underworld acknowledged him as their lord.

Cheng Bugui of River City;

The Five Dragons and Six Phoenixes of Jiangbei;

Zheng Mingye of Jiangling;

Xie Dingtian of Handong Province!

Which one of these individuals wasn’t a major figure? And yet, they all had to grovel at Lin Mu’s feet.

This man, not yet thirty years old, had already created countless miracles.

So, at this moment, everyone was stunned.

They never imagined that this legendary figure had come to the Chu Family.

And Chu Zhengbo, the head of the Chu Family, had actually declared his intent to kill Lin Mu.

Was that even possible?

”Gentlemen, there’s another piece of news you might not be aware of,” Elder Fan said with a bitter smile, his tone complex. ”That man has already been appointed as the General Instructor of the Southeast Military Academy. He is due to assume the position in a few days.”

”What?”

Someone gasped, their face a mask of disbelief.

The General Instructor of the Southeast Military Academy?

That was not a position an ordinary person could attain.

With such an honor, who in Handong Province would dare to oppose Lin Mu in the future?

”Elder Fan, is that true?”

”Indeed, that’s shocking. We haven’t heard a whisper about it,” another added.

Facing their skepticism, Elder Fan said, ”Would I lie to you? This matter is absolutely true.”

The crowd suddenly recalled Elder Fan’s background. Doesn’t he have a family member at the Southeast Military Academy?

The Chu Family’s back mountain was a dense forest, filled with a chilling and eerie atmosphere under the moonlight.

A figure in white ran swiftly through the forest, fleeing for her life. She kept glancing back, as if being pursued.

”There she is! I see her!”

An excited voice rang out as three figures rushed forward, closing in on the person ahead.

”Ah!”

Suddenly, the fleeing woman tripped and fell with a cry of alarm.

The brief delay allowed her pursuers to catch up.

”Run now, you little bitch!”

Chu Zhengbo strode over, grabbed the woman, and said viciously, ”What? Do you think being my woman is some kind of mistreatment?”

”Fuck, you... let go of me...”

The woman struggled, her accented Mandarin revealing she was a foreigner.

This woman was none other than Alice!

SLAP!

Chu Zhengbo struck Alice across the face. ”You ungrateful bitch!” he roared. ”I was kind enough to save you and even offered to make you my woman, yet you’re so unappreciative!”

Alice looked at Chu Zhengbo, her eyes wide with terror. ”Please,” she begged, ”let me go. Please, let me go.”

Fear flooded Alice’s heart.

She had finally made it to Huaxia, but before she could find the person who could save her, she was hunted down and then rescued by Chu Zhengbo.

She thought she had escaped a wolf’s den, only to fall into a tiger’s lair.

Worse, the Gu poison in her body had begun to act up, rendering her powerless. Chu Zhengbo treated her like prey, imprisoning her in the Chu estate.

This imprisonment had lasted for over a year.

”Take her back,” Chu Zhengbo ordered his men. ”After we find those two little bastards, I’ll deal with her!”

”There’s no need to go to all that trouble.”

Just then, a faint voice sounded as two figures emerged from the woods.

It was Lin Mu and the Spirit Seer.

”It’s you.”

Chu Zhengbo’s eyes lit up, and a savage sneer spread across his face. ”Boy, I didn’t expect you to dare show your face. Get him!”

The Chu Family bodyguards charged at Lin Mu.

But these men were no match for him. With a burst of energy, he sent them flying.

This display startled Chu Zhengbo.

Who is this guy? How can he be so strong?

”It’s you! I... I’ve found you! Save me!”

Alice recognized Lin Mu, and joy flashed in her eyes, which quickly filled with tears. She had endured so much suffering and hardship on her journey to Huaxia. She thought she was doomed, but now she had unexpectedly found him.

She was finally saved.

Lin Mu certainly remembered this Alice. If he hadn’t sensed the Gu poison he had placed inside her, he wouldn’t have bothered with her.

Lin Mu looked at Chu Zhengbo, his tone nonchalant. ”Let her go, and I might spare your life.”

”Let her go?”

Chu Zhengbo let out a cold laugh. ”Who do you think you are? You really think you can do whatever you want just because you can fight? Too bad for you, this is the Chu Family’s territory!”

”Kill him!”

His two bodyguards glared with murderous intent, ready to strike.

Lin Mu shook his head slightly. ”So we can’t come to an agreement? In that case, you can die.”

With a flicker, Lin Mu pointed his finger. The two bodyguards beside Chu Zhengbo instantly exploded into a mist of blood.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Following that, the other bodyguards also exploded. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen men were dead.

”How... how is this possible?”

Chu Zhengbo staggered backward, his face a mask of terror.

”Spirit Seer, save me!” he yelled as he saw Lin Mu approaching him.

CRACK! CRACK!

Lin Mu suddenly stopped and looked behind him.

The ambient temperature plummeted. A layer of frost appeared on the ground, spreading at a visible rate.
