Chapter 1 Jiang Tiancheng's Difficulty

Jiang Tiancheng was deliberately making things difficult for him; Chen Luo could see that.

Tch, if I took out all the pork I’ve hoarded, wouldn't it scare you to death on the spot?

Chen Luo was about to agree, to exchange thirty tons of pork for Jiang Chuxue, when he suddenly realized: why should I trade with Jiang Tiancheng?

What’s with me? Just bullied some pickled vegetables, acted like a hero once, and now I really think I'm a hero?

I’m Lao Liu; I'm really not a hero.

Chen Luo suddenly changed his attitude and sneered, "Let me ask you, what time is it now?"

Jiang Tiancheng was puzzled, looked at his watch, and said, "It's four o'clock in the afternoon."

Chen Luo scoffed. "Now is the age of collapsing order. Do you think you're in a position to negotiate with me?"

"Forgot to tell you, I kill without batting an eye. I kill pickled vegetables, and I kill my own people too."

Jiang Tiancheng stared blankly at Chen Luo, unable to understand how his prospective son-in-law had suddenly changed his face.

Chen Luo continued, "What, you think you can stop me if I forcefully take Jiang Chuxue away?"

"I took a fancy to your daughter, but only for her abilities. If she's willing to go, that's best. If not, I'll just take her by force."

Chen Luo revealed a villainous face. "Mr. Jiang Tiancheng, you wouldn't want your daughter to follow me crying and wailing, would you?"

"I'll give you a day to persuade her some more. Otherwise, I might have to resort to force."

Jiang Tiancheng wanted to say that this kid was too arrogant. He was still a Level 6, not someone to be bullied.

But then he thought about how Chen Luo had killed more than six thousand people in the blink of an eye, and even Jin Haoyu, a Level 7, had been slapped to death.

Even if everyone in H City combined, they wouldn't be a match for Chen Luo.

Jiang Tiancheng opened his mouth wide. This kid changed his face way too fast.

But he had to admit that Chen Luo had a point. The fact that he was willing to discuss it with him at all was already giving him face.

Jiang Tiancheng asked, "Where do you plan to take her?"

Chen Luo thought for a moment and softened his tone. "I also have a base, in Shendu, but it's not a small base like yours. With your strength, you wouldn't even get a number in line if you went there."

"My idea is to build the strongest base, gathering a group of elites to better survive in the apocalypse. That's why I'm taking Jiang Chuxue with me."

"Oh, right, you can come along too if you want, and bring your elites. When you get there, you can either join my base or start your own. It's up to you."

"To be precise, I don't have any malicious intent, but I must take Jiang Chuxue. How things develop depends on your attitude."

"According to my observations, there will be a heavy rain in a while, and H City is likely to be flooded. If you don't leave, you'll have to leave then anyway."

"Taking you with us is for your own good."

There was one thing Chen Luo had misunderstood. Jiang Tiancheng wasn't obsessed with power. He was probably just forced by the situation; if he didn't become the boss, he would be bullied.

Looking at Chen Luo's back, Jiang Tiancheng was very indignant. This kid was too domineering.

Give up the base and follow him? The safety would be greatly improved. Maybe even the Mutants are afraid of this kid.

But do I have a choice?

I've run out of food. The base itself can't be maintained anymore.

Wait, Jiang Tiancheng suddenly woke up. Is there a possibility that this kid made my food disappear?

But how did he do it?

Jiang Tiancheng still thinks that this isn't something a person could do.

A truckload of food disappeared right under their noses. Even though Chen Luo is powerful, he couldn't do that, could he?

Sighing, Jiang Tiancheng began to consider whether to agree to Chen Luo.

Chen Luo ran into Jiang Chuxue when he left the room. The girl blushed a little when she saw Chen Luo and clenched her fist.

Chen Luo originally wanted to ask if she was going with him or not, but something came to mind, and he said, "Try to use your immobilization technique on me."

Chen Luo wanted to see if Level 6 Jiang Chuxue could immobilize him.

If she could, Jiang Chuxue might be able to directly immobilize a King-level.

This was very important.

Jiang Chuxue hesitated and said, "Actually, my ability isn't really an immobilization technique. It seems to be related to time."

Jiang Chuxue wasn't even sure if her ability was time-based.

Chen Luo said, "Try it."

Jiang Chuxue nodded, didn't do anything, just looked at Chen Luo.

Suddenly, Chen Luo felt that his body couldn't move at all. He couldn't even move his fingers.

However, the energy within his body was still flowing.

Chen Luo was in a daze. What was going on? In his previous life, when he was frozen in time, everything was still except for his thoughts.

Now, his energy could still circulate.

What was the reason?

Could it be because I also awakened a time-based ability?

Only time can fight against time?

Chen Luo was about to circulate his energy to release the freeze, but Jiang Chuxue's time freeze effect had already disappeared.

It had frozen Chen Luo for about three seconds.

Chen Luo said, "Try again."

Jiang Chuxue was also surprised. It could only freeze Chen Luo for such a short time?

But Chen Luo was very strong, so it was normal.

Jiang Chuxue said, "I can only do it one more time. I can't do it more than that."

This time, Chen Luo, who was prepared, instantly released the time freeze.

Having verified it, Chen Luo was very excited. In his previous life, time freeze could still restrain his Void Monarch powers.

But now, nothing could control him anymore.

Chen Luo could go wherever he wanted and steal from whoever he wanted.

Jiang Chuxue was panting, very tired.

Jiang Tiancheng walked out of the room and happened to see this scene. Seeing Chen Luo and Jiang Chuxue close together, he was immediately dumbfounded.

What did you do to my daughter?

Chen Luo chuckled. "I'll go back to my room and rest for a while."

Back in the room, he had to return the dog to Jiang Chuxue.

Arriving at the cave where he had hidden the Samoyed, the Samoyed was devouring a chicken leg. Seeing Chen Luo, it immediately put on a smiling face.

This was the owner who fed it; it had to please him.

Chen Luo released the space barrier and took the Samoyed to a place two miles away from Jiang Tiancheng's base.

"Run back yourself. Remember, you don't know me, or you can forget about eating meat in the future."

The Samoyed nodded wildly. It had some intelligence, but not as much as Fa Wang.

Fa Wang was a unique dog.

Chen Luo even wanted to take this Samoyed back for Fa Wang.

He would take the people and the dogs.

Eh, did this Samoyed take a dump in the space barrier?

Damn, even a beautiful dog like this poops. I wonder if Fa Wang would want it.

Chen Luo returned to the room, then went out, deliberately letting people see him.

The entire process from Chen Luo entering the room to coming out didn't take more than half a minute.

I really didn't steal the dog. I have a solid alibi.

The Samoyed ran all the way back to the base and found Jiang Chuxue with ease.

It missed Jiang Chuxue too.

"Woof woof."

Looking at Fantuan, Jiang Chuxue was so excited that tears streamed down her face. She thought Fantuan had been stolen and turned into dog meat.

She didn't expect Fantuan to come back, and it even seemed a little fatter?

Jiang Chuxue excitedly hugged Fantuan. She had raised this dog for two years before the apocalypse, and she had a deep affection for it.

Suddenly, Jiang Chuxue sniffed. Why did Fantuan smell like meat?

It smelled so good.
