"Is that so? Then I shall see for myself," Master Wu sneered, his sharp gaze assessing Ding Yan before he made his move without further ado.
Though Master Wu's martial arts skills were only at the level of Inner Energy mastery, dealing with the currently inebriated Ding Yan was still an easy task. However, his hand had yet to make contact with Ding Yan when a sudden, powerful force struck him from an unknown source. It was as if a massive steel pendulum had collided with him, sending him flying uncontrollably. Fortunately, the door was open; otherwise, he would have surely smashed through it.
This bizarre scene unfolded so suddenly that everyone was caught off guard. By the time Zhao Hun and the others regained their senses, Master Wu was already lying unconscious in the corridor outside.
"Did you injure Master Wu?" Zhao Hun asked sharply. He wasn't foolish; in the room, aside from Ding Yan, only Jiang Chen remained. He turned to Jiang Chen and asked in a low voice.
"Didn't you hear what Ding Yan said? He told you to leave. If you don't go, I'll make you," Jiang Chen replied nonchalantly while seated in a chair, still holding his wine glass.
"I didn't expect you to be a Martial Artist as well. But do you know Master Wu's background? He is a disciple of Elder Liang, a martial arts giant on Hong Kong Island. Elder Liang holds an unparalleled status in martial arts there. Given your age, you're barely at the level of Elder Liang's grandchildren. You've injured Elder Liang's disciple; I wonder how you'll explain this to Elder Liang. With just one word from him, you could find it impossible to survive in Huaxia Martial Arts," Zhao Hun said coldly.
"Are you done?" Jiang Chen interjected, his tone still calm.
"Don't think I'm joking. You better apologize to Master Wu right now; otherwise, you'll regret it," Zhao Hun believed that with Elder Liang backing Master Wu, he could act without fear, unaware that he had just hit a solid wall.
"Get lost." Jiang Chen waved his hand dismissively, sending Zhao Hun flying out as well.
"You—just wait! I want to see how you withstand Elder Liang's wrath. You won't be able to survive in Huaxia Martial Arts after this," Zhao Hun shouted as he struggled to get up after being thrown around.
Jiang Chen ignored Zhao Hun and glanced at the bodyguards. "Aren't you all leaving yet? Do you really want me to take action?"
The bodyguards quickly took the hint and filed out; even if they all attacked together, they would just be walking into their doom against this young man.
They carried Zhao Hun and Master Wu away while Ding Yan returned to his room to sleep.
Yelina paced back and forth at home, worried about her daughter getting hurt. After waiting for what felt like ages, she finally received a phone call informing her that Zhao Hun had been taken to the hospital.
The hospital where Zhao Hun was admitted was the same one where Ding Shaowen had been taken. The doctors were puzzled by how two wealthy individuals from Aodao ended up in the hospital on the same night. Given their injuries, it seemed they had been beaten up—had they fought each other?
Master Wu regained consciousness in the hospital and erupted in fury, vowing to kill Jiang Chen.
"Master Wu, that young man can injure people from a distance. Could he be what your martial arts world refers to as a Master of Transformation?" Zhao Hun asked. Although he was a wealthy man from Aodao and not a Martial Artist himself, he had some understanding of martial arts.
Many traditions from Huaxia had flourished on Hong Kong Island; martial arts and Feng Shui were deeply rooted there. In this not-so-large place, hidden talents abounded—most Feng Shui Masters from Huaxia could be found on Hong Kong Island.
