73 -73 【The Legend of the Apocalyptic Strongman】

“Mom, my brother is really too stingy.

As the chairman of the Sea King Group, he can’t even spare two hundred bucks for me.

I’m not going to help him feel things out…” Ye Qianwen pouted cutely and complained somewhat angrily.

Luo Yan glanced at her daughter Ye Qianwen and smiled slightly.

She knew that her son Ye Tianchen had always been tightfisted with his sister, never giving her any pocket money from childhood to adulthood.

Even now, Ye Tianchen, no longer the laughingstock of Capital City, no longer the Ye family’s profligate and worthless man, was still just as tightfisted, which even she, as the mother, found speechless.

“Qianwen, go and ask your sister Ruxue.

See if she has any fondness for your brother.

If she does, then it’s your brother’s problem.

If not, we really can’t delay her.” Luo Yan said while cleaning up the dishes and bowls.

Actually, in Luo Yan’s heart, at least ninety percent hoped Qi Ruxue could become her daughter-in-law.

After all, in today’s society, finding a beautiful, non-fragile woman who could handle both the living room and the kitchen was extremely difficult.

Moreover, Qi Ruxue was the girl who was closest to her son Ye Tianchen.

Ever since Ye Tianchen peeped at Liu Rumei bathing, he changed completely, avoiding contact with other women.

This made Luo Yan worry whether women would cast a shadow in her son’s heart, possibly affecting the Ye family’s lineage.

So, Luo Yan still thought she should first ask Qi Ruxue to see if she had any affection for her son, Ye Tianchen.

If indeed she did, Luo Yan would definitely take the trouble to persuade her son.

A good girl like Qi Ruxue, a good daughter-in-law, was hard to find even with a lantern.

“I’m not going.

My brother is too stingy.

I won’t help him with anything ever again, hmph!” Ye Qianwen pouted angrily, turning her head away.

“You little girl, doesn’t mom know what you’re thinking?

Take this, spend it sparingly, the key is to focus on frugality.” Luo Yan took out two hundred-dollar bills from her pocket and handed them to her daughter Ye Qianwen.

For a family like Ye Tianchen’s, they were not the best-off in Capital City but they lived without worry.

However, Luo Yan and her husband had always taught Ye Tianchen and Ye Qianwen, brother and sister, to be frugal and not wasteful.

Previously, Ye Tianchen had not developed this good habit, while Ye Qianwen understood it.

Otherwise, Ye Qianwen, now a high school senior, wouldn’t have only four hundred yuan for her monthly living expenses, which even had to cover breakfast and lunch money.

“Mom is the best.

Well, you wash the dishes, and I’ll go sniff around.” With that, Ye Qianwen snatched the two hundred yuan note and tucked it into her pocket, then cheerfully ran toward the second floor of the villa.

Now with her reward, her attitude toward getting things done was positively more enthusiastic.

Ye Tianchen sat cross-legged on the bed.

Tomorrow, he would set out for the M country to protect personnel during the exchange of confidential data.

This was not what Ye Tianchen valued the most; what he looked forward to was the Mercenary Organization and the formidable Superpower Special Agent Team in M country.

He hoped to use the hands of these foreigners not just to break through his King-level Superpower Realm and move up a level, but at the very least, to solidify his cultivation at the King Level.

Entering the meditation state, Ye Tianchen felt every trace of superpower in his blood.

After breaking through to the King Level Realm, the superpower in his body had long since turned blue and deepened gradually.

This was a process of metamorphosis.

Only by continuously stimulating the superpower in his body and activating the Superpower Core in his brain could he handle his own superpower more deftly.

To draw upon the vast energies of nature and convert them for his own use, he likely needed to advance to the Emperor Level Realm.

Even to just start perceiving and utilizing them, he had to at least reach the King-level Peak, because Ye Tianchen, who had reached the Divine-level Superpower Realm in the apocalypse, had a deep understanding of the perception and use of natural energies.

If it was said that a Divine Level or even an Emperor Level superpower expert could possess the power to destroy heaven and earth, they were still trivial compared to the energies contained in nature.

Every plant, every rock contained immense energy.

If one could truly convert it for their own use, it would be a jump in power that was frighteningly formidable.

“Will there be Emperor-level superpower experts in this lifetime?

During the apocalypse, I only heard of the existence of Emperor-level experts…

Li Bai!”

Ye Tianchen felt the presence of his sister Ye Qianwen coming upstairs, opened his eyes, and murmured this to himself.

Having been reborn in this life, although he anticipated whether super-strong experts existed in this world, he also had the memories of the apocalypse.

Despite the cruel and bloody world of the apocalypse, that was also where his friends were, where his memories from childhood on were.

If possible, he truly wanted to go back.

Li Bai, the name Ye Tianchen murmured to himself, was because in the apocalypse he had become a Divine-level Superpower Expert, conquering the world.

Naturally, he was yearning for a higher realm, the Emperor Level.

The Emperor Level was definitely not to be mentioned in the same breath as the Divine Level; there was an immense gap.

In the apocalypse, almost no one had seen an Emperor Level superpower expert.

Even the legends about them were scarce because once they reached a certain level of power, their thoughts and actions became different.

Li Bai, this name shook the world in the apocalypse.

He was the only Emperor-level Superpower Expert who made his formidable reputation known in recent years.

“I had wanted to meet Li Bai if there was a chance, but being reborn into this world, there’s no chance to return to the apocalypse, all hopes are dashed…”

As he spoke, Ye Tianchen got down from the bed.

While meditating and stirring up the superpower in his body, he sensed the approach of his sister Ye Qianwen.

It wasn’t that he had extended his superpower to sense everything; in his own home, Ye Tianchen would not do that.

It was a form of surveillance and disrespect towards his family.

Only after reaching the King-level Superpower Realm, in a state of meditation, even the sound of a needle dropping nearby would be clearly heard.

Thump thump thump!

Knocking sounds came from outside; Ye Qianwen walked to the bedroom door where Qi Ruxue was staying, knocked vigorously, and shouted loudly, “Sister Ruxue, open the door, it’s me, Qianwen, not that big bad egg, my brother.”

“You little imp, wait and see how I deal with you later.” Ye Tianchen, hearing his sister Ye Qianwen’s words, was fuming with annoyance.

The girl was becoming more and more disrespectful, completely disregarding her own brother.

“Sister Ruxue, it’s really me, without my brother, that big bad egg.

Please open the door, I have something to discuss with you.” Seeing that Qi Ruxue didn’t open the door, Ye Qianwen continued to call out.

At that moment, hidden under the covers on the bed, Qi Ruxue’s beautiful face was slightly flushed, her mind unable to rid itself of the scene where she had kissed Ye Tianchen.

No matter how hard she tried to control herself and not think of that moment, it flashed in her mind regardless, and the more she tried not to remember, the more it appeared, irritating her so much that she ground her little canine teeth, absolutely loathing that big bad egg, Ye Tianchen.

Hearing Ye Qianwen’s voice, Qi Ruxue paused for a moment but still got out of bed.

She was feeling quite stifled and was eager to talk to someone.

The time spent with Ye Qianwen and Luo Yan had been delightful; if it weren’t for that guy, Ye Tianchen, always trying to drive her away, Qi Ruxue would have really liked to just live there.

With a creak, Qi Ruxue opened the bedroom door and saw Ye Qianwen grinning mischievously at her, which made her cheeks redden even more.

She glanced at Ye Qianwen and said, “You little imp, why aren’t you sleeping?

What are you doing looking for me?”

“Hehe, Sister Ruxue, I know you need someone to chat with right now, so here I am.

Don’t worry, I’m totally on your side.

As for that miserly person, my brother, I don’t even want to deal with him anymore.

He’s just a clumsy fool who doesn’t appreciate romance.”

To get closer to Qi Ruxue and earn her absolute trust, so she could later find out the truth, Ye Qianwen casually betrayed her brother Ye Tianchen, calling him a big bad egg and a big fool.

Ye Tianchen, listening just outside his own door, was so irate that it took all he had not to burst out and give Ye Qianwen a couple of “sugar cubes.”

“Who said I needed someone to chat with to cheer up?

You quirky little imp, come on in!” Qi Ruxue said with a smile.

Ye Qianwen sweetly smiled as she entered Qi Ruxue’s bedroom, and the two girls closed the door and began chatting.

Ye Tianchen thought it over and decided to let it be, why bother about what they were talking about.

They surely weren’t saying anything good about him.

Now that even his own sister had turned traitor, he was quite frustrated.

He might as well go to sleep early, for he had to head to Kyoto International Airport early in the morning to travel to M country.

“Sister Ruxue, your pajamas are so pretty!

Such a sexy nightgown, paired with your perfect figure, if I were a man, I would definitely fall in love with you,” Ye Qianwen teased with a laugh.

“You sure have a sweet mouth.

You spend all day not studying properly, just thinking about these things.

Do you have someone special in mind?” Qi Ruxue asked with a laugh.

“Of course not, why are you saying the same things my brother does?

You two really have a connection.” Ye Qianwen said, her face reddening.

“No way, I have a connection with that big bad egg?

That would be so unlucky.

But what if we’re both right, and you do have a boyfriend?” Qi Ruxue kept teasing Ye Qianwen.

“Stop right there, don’t drag me into the mess between you and my brother.

Speaking of which, Sister Ruxue, with your good looks, great figure, and sexiness, how come you don’t have a boyfriend?” Ye Qianwen asked tentatively.

“Am I pretty?

Sexy?

I don’t feel it,” Qi Ruxue asked with confusion.

Qi Ruxue, who normally had plenty of confidence, ever since encountering Ye Tianchen, found herself constantly sparring with him in verbal arguments, with him showing no consideration for her as a beautiful woman.

This caused Qi Ruxue to gradually lose some confidence.

If she really were so beautiful and sexy, why wasn’t Ye Tianchen moved at all, why didn’t he give in to a great beauty like her?
