Super Fusion

Chapter 20: This one's a bit more interesting

"Forget it, it's just finding a new job. With my current abilities, three or four times better than the average person, surely I can find a decent job?"

Near the eastern suburbs of Linzhou, as a bus arrived, Xu Yu, walking along familiar streets, finally understood everything.

The change in the jade pendant was indeed a good thing, even if it meant he could no longer use it to make money. But these were clearly secondary. Just thinking about his current situation filled Xu Yu with confidence.

He bought a newspaper on the street before heading towards his residence.

Just as he reached the building, several dozen meters away, inside the Mercedes that had been parked, Yu Ze, who had just woken up, suddenly jolted awake. His mouth agape as he watched Xu Yu enter the building, a look of utter despair welled up in Yu Ze's eyes.

"Damn it! Why did this guy only leave the house when I was about to give up?" Three days of holding out had really taken its toll on him, but after cursing angrily, a strange glint flashed in Yu Ze's eyes.

He quickly checked his phone, and when he realized it was only around 10 a.m., Yu Ze suddenly smiled, jumped out of the car, and hurried towards the building.

He couldn't wait any longer. If he continued waiting, he really didn't know how long he would have to wait for this super-recluse. He couldn't even imagine how long it would take. A grown man, averaging less than once a day for a few minutes each time—it was too outrageous.

Although it was daytime, only 10 a.m., this was still an urban village, mostly rented by migrant workers. At this time, there weren't many people in these buildings.

"Even if it's daytime robbery, as long as I'm quick enough, I'll do it!" Glancing resentfully at the sky, Yu Ze listened carefully after entering the building and then quickly ran upstairs.

Calculating his steps, Yu Ze waited until the other person reached the seventh floor before turning around and reaching the corner. He glanced left and right; finding no one, a smile suddenly appeared on his lips.

The frustration of the past few days began to dissipate. He knew that ambushing an ordinary young man was a sure thing.

This was because he wasn't an ordinary person, but a powerful cultivator in the early stages of cultivation.

Even though his cultivation hadn't reached the peak of the early stages, he could easily handle a dozen or so ordinary people unarmed.

This was why he didn't want Gu Changyi, the eldest son of the Gu family, to send reinforcements this time. If he needed help to ambush an ordinary person, word would get out, and he'd be a laughingstock. How could he ever face anyone again?

With a slight chuckle, just as Yu Ze's murderous intent intensified and he prepared to strike...

Ahead, Xu Yu, who was walking, suddenly shuddered and whirled around, looking straight back. A chilling feeling seemed to rise from his heart, making him shudder – danger! As he turned,

Xu Yu saw a thin young man of about thirty years old standing two or three meters behind him, staring at him with malevolent eyes, poised to pounce.

In an instant, Xu Yu knew that the extremely uncomfortable feeling came from this man.

But even after confirming it, a huge question arose in his mind: Who was this guy?

"Huh?"

Xu Yu's sudden turn surprised Yu Ze. He hadn't expected his target to be so alert. However, Yu Ze smiled again and stared directly at Xu Yu, saying, "Xu Yu?"

"Who are you?" Hearing the other party call him by name, and with his smile, Xu Yu's unease and sense of danger grew stronger. He immediately took a step back and stared intently at the man again.

"You don't need to know who I am. Just hand over that jade, and I can make your suffering less!" Seeing Xu Yu's extremely nervous expression, Yu Ze smiled again.

One sentence made Xu Yu pause slightly . Jade?

He had been wondering what this guy was after, but now he understood completely. However, the other party's words made him furious again, and his gaze towards the other party turned hostile.

"Tsk tsk, I knew you wouldn't give in obediently. Then let me beat you until you submit!" Seeing Xu Yu's expression, Yu Ze smiled again, and then his slightly paused body suddenly moved.

With a whoosh, Yu Ze appeared before Xu Yu like an arrow, his right hand slightly bent, like a snake's head pouncing on its prey, bringing a sharp gust of wind as he lunged down towards Xu Yu's shoulder.

"Ha!"

Xu Yu was immediately shocked. At that moment, the sense of danger in his heart rose to its peak, and he had a vague, absurd feeling that the young man had suddenly transformed into a venomous snake hunting its prey the moment he moved.

He believed that a single blow to the shoulder would definitely cause him serious injury.

Although Xu Yu knew that the jade pendant inside him would automatically release a layer of transparent energy to protect him in times of danger, he still instinctively wanted to retreat in the face of such a direct and menacing intent.

Even as he retreated, the only piece of spirit jade on his body began to heat up.

With almost all his might, Xu Yu leaped backward, unleashing the full power of his body honed by spiritual energy over the past few days. With

a whoosh, Xu Yu jumped five or six meters back, reaching the far end of the corridor, further distancing himself from the man.

"Huh?"

Seeing his opponent about to injure his right hand, yet escaping again—and this escape clearly exceeding the limits of an ordinary person—Yu Ze, who had just reached Xu Yu's previous position, was suddenly stunned. A

hasty backward leap, and he could actually jump five or six meters? Such an ability seemed only possible for a cultivator in the Body Refinement stage. Was his target not an ordinary person this time?

Staring blankly at Xu Yu for a moment, Yu Ze noticed again that although Xu Yu, who had escaped the attack, was now standing at the end of the corridor, watching him warily, his posture was completely like that of an ordinary person, full of openings.

The other person had definitely practiced martial arts, yet they were standing there without any sense of technique? A strange glint flashed in his eyes again, and after staring intently at Xu Yu for a moment, Yu Ze's lips curled into a sinister smile. "I didn't expect you to have practiced martial arts too? Tsk tsk, it seems this time is going to be quite interesting."
