150: Chapter 150: If I have the strength but don't show off, haven't I wasted my cultivation?

The morning sunlight spilled into the room through the curtains.

Lin Yuan opened his eyes and looked at Su Yuyan, who was sound asleep in his arms.

This former business queen, once high and mighty, was now curled up in his arms as obediently as a docile kitten.

Right then—

[Ding! Detected that Goddess Su Yuyan's favorability has reached the standard!]

[Su Yuyan's Affinity: Lv.1→Lv.2!]

[Congratulations Host! The effect of the supply 'Superpower Proficiency Booster' has increased!]

Lin Yuan's eyes lit up.

Nice!

This has finally increased!

He opened the system panel to check the details.

Although Lin Yuan didn't care whether these women were sincere toward him or not,

the more loyal the tools were, the more useful they naturally became.

Lin Yuan casually took a space ability fruit from his system space and popped it into his mouth.

This thing was a supply unlocked by Luo Qinghan.

As for the taste... how should he put it?

It was okay, not much different from ordinary fruit.

He had been eating them every day for the past few days and was almost getting used to the taste.

After eating no less than fifty of them,

[Congratulations Host! C-Rank Space Ability broke through to B-Rank!]

Boom—!!

A terrifying surge of energy erupted from within Lin Yuan's body!

The space throughout the room instantly distorted!

Su Yuyan was startled awake, and upon opening her eyes, she saw the surrounding space rippling like waves.

"This... this is..."

She was so shocked she couldn't speak.

Lin Yuan closed his eyes, feeling the skyrocketing power within him.

The leap from C-Rank to B-Rank for the Space Ability was not just an increase in quantity,

it was a qualitative leap!

[B-Rank Space Ability unlocked a new ability: Space Barrier!]

[Effect: Can form a Space Barrier in a designated area; the space within the barrier is completely controlled by the Host!]

Space Barrier?

With a thought from Lin Yuan,

Hum—!

With him as the center, the space within a hundred-meter radius was instantly enveloped by an invisible Space Barrier!

Within the barrier...

He was a god!

Lin Yuan tried to manipulate the space.

The furniture in the room floated up out of thin air.

It wasn't through telekinesis, but by directly controlling space to let the objects "suspend" at specific spatial coordinates!

"This ability... is a bit overpowered."

Lin Yuan smiled with satisfaction.

The most terrifying aspect of the Space Barrier was that

within its range, he could twist, cut, and compress space at will!

An enemy entering the barrier was equivalent to entering his Absolute Domain!

Su Yuyan looked at him, her eyes filled with adoration:

"You've grown stronger again..."

"Yeah."

Lin Yuan nodded casually and withdrew the Space Barrier.

To him, growing stronger was a matter of course.

The Apocalypse had only just begun.

His path of evolution still had a long way to go.

...

At noon.

Lin Yuan arrived at the Shelter's training ground.

At this moment, over a hundred Ability Users were gathered at the training ground.

They were conducting their daily training.

Fireballs, ice spikes, lightning, Vines...

Various Superpowers intertwined into a brilliant picture.

"Tsk, this lineup is already no weaker than some mid-sized factions."

Lin Yuan evaluated silently.

Su Yuyan's Shelter was developing at an astonishing speed.

Of course, this was inseparable from the large amount of supplies and weapons he provided.

"Master!"

A Female Guard saw Lin Yuan and immediately saluted respectfully.

The surrounding Ability Users also stopped their training one after another and looked toward him.

Their eyes were full of curiosity and scrutiny.

This man was the legendary Master?

The terrifyingly powerful existence Leader Su spoke of?

He looks...

like he's nothing special, right?

He just looks a bit clean and has a decent temperament.

His looks aren't earth-shatteringly handsome either.

"That's it?"

"Leader Su made him sound so amazing, I thought he'd be some kind of peerless expert..."

"Could he just be a pretty boy living off a woman because of his face?"

"Shh! Keep it down!"

Whispers broke out among the crowd.

Although they deliberately lowered their voices, to Lin Yuan, it was no different from saying it to his face.

Lin Yuan stopped in his tracks.

He turned around and looked at the group of Ability Users on the training ground.

A playful smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

If I have strength and don't show off,

didn't I cultivate for nothing?

In the very next second!

BOOM!!!

An invisible ripple instantly expanded with Lin Yuan as the center!

Space Barrier! Fully deployed!

Hum————!!!

The entire training ground—no, the entire Shelter!

The space within a five-hundred-meter radius was instantly enveloped by an invisible barrier!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The space shattered like a mirror, only to reassemble in the next instant!

Terrifying Spatial Power swept outwards!

"Wha... what?!"

"This is..."

The movements of all the training Ability Users instantly froze!

Not just them!

Every woman within the entire Shelter, no matter what they were doing, all stiffened!

The girl who was releasing a fireball found her fireball frozen in mid-air.

The guard who was swinging a sword found her longsword stopped in the air.

The patrol team that was running found their movements static like statues.

Everything came to a halt!

Time seemed to have its pause button pressed at this moment!

But their consciousnesses remained clear!

Their eyes could move! Their thoughts could function!

Only their bodies were completely unable to move!

This was a feeling more terrifying than being bound or controlled.

They couldn't even move a single finger!

"Wha... what's going on?!"

"My body... I can't move?!"

"What kind of ability is this?!"

Fear spread through everyone's hearts.

And Lin Yuan,

slowly began to walk.

His pace was not fast; it could even be described as leisurely.

Each step he took felt like he was stepping on everyone's hearts.

The space on the training ground began to distort.

The stone bricks on the ground floated up out of thin air.

The surrounding air formed ripples visible to the naked eye.

In the sky, the clouds swirled, forming a massive vortex.

Sunlight pierced through the clouds, shining exactly upon Lin Yuan.

He looked like a god descending from the heavens.

With every step he took, the space trembled slightly more.

The surrounding Ability Users could only watch helplessly.

Watching this man they were just questioning—

display a power akin to a miracle!

"What... what level of Superpower is this?!"

"To actually be strong to this extent?!"

"Before him, we are just like ants..."

The same thought surged in everyone's hearts:

Strong!

Too strong!

So strong it was fundamentally incomprehensible!

So strong it surpassed their understanding of a "powerful person"!

This was fundamentally not a power a human should possess!

This was... God's domain!

Lin Yuan walked to the center of the training ground.

He raised his right hand.

And clenched it gently—

RUMBLE!!!

The space of the entire training ground instantly compressed!

All the objects floating in the air, the frozen fireballs, lightning, ice spikes...

all turned to dust under the spatial pressure!

Then, Lin Yuan flipped his palm.

That dust reassembled into its original form and slowly drifted down.

It was as if Creation! Destruction! Rebirth!

were all within his single thought!

"Now..."

Lin Yuan spoke indifferently; his voice wasn't loud, yet it boomed in everyone's hearts like heavenly thunder:

"Does anyone still think I'm a pretty boy living off a woman because of my face?"

Silence.

A deathly silence.

In the eyes of all the women held in place by the Spatial Power, only shock, fear, and adoration remained!

That doubt, contempt, and disdain...

had long since vanished without a trace!

In its place was awe for an absolute powerhouse!

Lin Yuan nodded with satisfaction.

He flicked his finger.

Snap!

The Space Barrier was instantly released.

Everyone's bodies regained their ability to move.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

One by one, the Ability Users on the training ground fell to their knees!

"Master!"

"We are sorry!"

"We were blind and foolish!"

"Please forgive our rudeness!"

Sounds of weeping, pleas for mercy, and shouts of adoration...

rose one after another.

On the entire training ground, over a hundred Ability Users all knelt in submission!

Even throughout the entire Shelter, all the women who had just been frozen by the Spatial Power

knelt one after another toward the direction where Lin Yuan was!

They finally understood.

Why a queen like Leader Su would be so respectful to this man.

Why so many beautiful goddesses would lose their hearts to him.

Because...

he is a true god!

Possessing absolute power that reigns over everything!

He deserves to be loved by so many beauties!

Lin Yuan looked at the women kneeling all over the ground, a smile curling at his mouth.

"Get up."

He waved his hand:

"Continue training. Remember what you saw today."

"This is what true power looks like."

After saying that, Lin Yuan turned and left.

He left behind a group of Ability Users who were still reeling from the shock.

From today on,

the title "Master," throughout the entire Shelter,

truly became a faith.

Lin Yuan's figure

was deeply branded into every single person's heart.

It was that which reigned over all—

God!

...

In the afternoon.

Lin Yuan returned to the villa.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Ye Qingxue and Ye Qingyue sitting in the living room.

When the two sisters saw him, their eyes lit up.

"Husband!"

Ye Qingyue pounced over, nuzzling him like a kitten:

"You're finally back!"

Although Ye Qingxue didn't pounce over, the longing and joy in her eyes could not be hidden.

"Missed me?"

Lin Yuan smiled and stroked Ye Qingyue's head.

"Of course!"

Ye Qingyue pouted:

"You weren't here these past few days, I was bored to death!"

"And..."

She stole a glance at her sister:

"Sister missed you a lot too, she just won't say it."

Ye Qingxue's cheeks flushed red:

"Qingyue!"

Looking at the interaction between the two sisters, a surge of warmth rose in Lin Yuan's heart.

Although he didn't care whether these women were sincere,

the feeling of being missed by someone...

was indeed not bad.

"Tonight..."

Ye Qingxue's gaze was somewhat evasive:

"Can... can you stay tonight?"

Her cheeks were bright red, and her voice was as soft and sweet as could be.

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.

This Cold School Beauty would actually take the initiative to invite him?

Interesting.

"I can."

He smiled and nodded.

Ye Qingxue and Ye Qingyue exchanged a glance, an excited light flashing in their eyes.

That's great!

They could be with Lin Yuan tonight!

Sweet emotions surged in both sisters' hearts at the same time.

It was just that...

they didn't know there would be unexpected guests tonight.
