395: I really want to kill someone...

【 Name: Shen Bei 】

【 Fourth-year student at Shen City Wu Ke University. 】

Shen Bei saw this and felt a moment of trance.

Unconsciously, he had already entered his fourth year of university.

Once this semester was over, he would have to go to the capital for school next year.

【 Strength: 753. 】

【 Physique: 587. 】

【 Spirit: 465. 】

【 Agility: 512. 】

【 Rating: Seventh Rank Martial Artist ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 】

Hiss!!!

As Shen Bei had expected, this trip to the Diku directly boosted him from Fifth Rank to Seventh Rank!

“Good heavens…”

Shen Bei licked his lips: “This is really cost-effective!”

Shen Bei was a little excited, and he increasingly felt that the Diku was a Treasure Trove.

But this excitement was quickly suppressed by Shen Bei.

He knew that the attribute points given for missions in the Diku were indeed high.

But risk and reward were always directly proportional.

To obtain high attribute points, one had to challenge high-Rank Da Shouzi or Vicious Beasts.

They were not to be trifled with.

It took many close calls with death and the combined efforts with Zhuang Bifan to achieve such a feat.

Not to mention, just dealing with Fang Han was exhausting.

Without Zhuang Bifan unleashing his ultimate move, it would have been very difficult.

He still had to go to the Diku.

But he couldn't be idle during his time on earth's surface.

Especially after hearing about the Martial Dao Pinnacle from Yun Zhiyi.

To achieve longevity, one either had to Breakthrough to the Divine Power Realm, find the Living Dead Jade, or experience the human world and gain insights from various professions.

After a comprehensive analysis, it was clear that what Shen Bei could currently do was only the last option.

Shen Bei had discussed the matter of Breakthrough to the Divine Power Realm with Bai Wei.

Bai Wei currently had no good way to reach the other side of the sea.

After all, there was still a Central Continent that hadn't been dealt with in between, so it was almost impossible to jump over it in one step.

In fact, Bai Wei was even more anxious than Shen Bei.

Who wouldn't want to go further?

But the problem lay here; they were stuck, and they had to proceed slowly, gradually advancing within the Diku.

Shen Bei thought that with this hostage exchange incident, a direct passage to the Imperial City would surely be formed.

This was also a Breakthrough point, a very significant advancement; once past the Imperial City, one could glimpse the other side of the sea.

There were no clues whatsoever for the other Living Dead Jade, so Shen Bei didn't even consider it, directly dismissing it.

“Just do what you need to do.”

Shen Bei tore up the inspection report and destroyed it.

He returned to the front hall.

Jian Tong was humming a tune and putting on makeup; it seemed she was quite invested in her middle school reunion.

“What are you looking at?” Jian Tong looked at Shen Bei through the mirror, patting makeup powder on her face: “Don’t I have to doll myself up to give you some face?”

Shen Bei: …

Shen Bei said unceremoniously: “With my status and reputation, even if a lead sow went, they’d still call her sister-in-law.”

“Get lost!”

Jian Tong spat fiercely.

Shen Bei scurried upstairs, lay on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.

Women, they couldn't finish their makeup in just a few hours before going out.

It was a good time to catch up on sleep.

…

By the afternoon, Jian Tong had finished her makeup.

Although it wasn't time for the reunion yet, Shen Bei, now awake, still had to accompany Jian Tong out shopping.

There was no avoiding it.

No matter how awesome you were, you still had to accompany your girlfriend for a stroll.

Just like a CEO of a listed company, he still had to drive his Rolls-Royce to pick up cardboard boxes his mother collected to sell for money.

Of course, their relationship was beyond reproach; they had already had deep interactions multiple times.

But Shen Bei couldn't Cultivate like a demon every day and not even accompany Jian Tong; a proper boyfriend, even if the earth's surface exploded, would still accompany her for a stroll.

Today, Jian Tong was wearing a floral dress, white canvas shoes, and her hair was tied in a bun at the back of her head, adorned with a small cherry hair clip.

Shen Bei and Jian Tong walked to Xinchuang City.

This Xinchuang City was not a tech park or a residential area.

It was a shopping mall.

Similar to Shen City’s Wu’ai Market.

Of course, it was much smaller than Wu’ai Market.

When Shen Bei was in middle school, he often skipped classes to hang out here.

Because the other street of Xinchuang City was an internet cafe street…

The two looked at clothes in the mall for a few rounds, and finally, Jian Tong took a liking to a white T-shirt. She asked the boss how much it was, and the boss, speaking with a half-Min Nan, half-Urumqi accent, said: “Three hundred and sixty yuan.”

Jian Tong thought for a moment and said: “How about three hundred? I didn’t bring much money, I was just casually looking. If you can sell it, I’ll buy it; if not, then forget it.”

The boss was about to agree when Shen Bei opened his wallet, took out sixty yuan, and said: “I have it here, I have it here.”

Jian Tong’s face turned green and purple with anger, and she said: “I’m not buying it anymore!” Then she turned and walked away.

Shen Bei stood frozen in place, gravely picking his nose, completely bewildered. Where did I offend her again?

I really have money!

Am I the kind of person who lacks money?

A trip to the Diku brings in thirty million in profit; why quibble over a few cents?

Seriously… can’t I be a little more generous?

At this moment, a Yamaha motorcycle spewing black smoke passed by Shen Bei, playing the song “Don’t Guess a Girl’s Mind, Don’t Guess” on its stereo.

Shen Bei skillfully rolled the booger on his finger into a pellet, flicking it gently into the proud sea breeze. Although his technique was handsome and elegant, his heart was filled with depression and melancholy…

Then, Shen Bei and Jian Tong walked into a coffee shop located by the roadside.

Jian Tong ordered a cup of Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Monastery, and Shen Bei ordered a cup of Lingnan City Changtu County soy milk.

As the two were slowly drinking, a burst of wild DJ slow rock music from outside interrupted them. A modified motorcycle stopped at the entrance of the coffee shop, and a young hoodlum got off the bike.

Shen Bei looked up; it was no one else but Wang Da Nao Dai.

“What are you doing?” Wang Da Nao Dai was also very familiar, sitting directly beside Shen Bei and teasing: “You look a bit down, like Qin Shi Huang begging for an Immortal Pill. What happened? Tell me, let’s see if I can help you.”

Shen Bei put his arm around Wang Da Nao Dai’s shoulder and asked: “Tell me, hypothetically, if you had a fortune of hundreds of millions, would you still haggle over a few cents?”

“Absolutely not,” Wang Da Nao Dai answered firmly: “I wouldn’t be short of that money.”

Shen Bei looked at Jian Tong.

Jian Tong rolled her eyes.

“But in reality, I would definitely haggle,” Wang Da Nao Dai added: “Because I don’t have a fortune of hundreds of millions.”

“Go, go, go, do what you need to do.” Shen Bei waved his hand.

Wang Da Nao Dai chuckled, nudged Shen Bei, and glanced at Jian Tong: “Who’s this? A new mistress you got?”

Although Wang Da Nao Dai deliberately tried to speak quietly, his voice was so loud that even Shen Bei’s aunt in Heilongjiang could hear it.

Jian Tong’s eyelids twitched slightly, clearly annoyed. Girls from the Northeast were not soft sisters from the South; if Wang Da Nao Dai kept talking like this, Shen Bei estimated a fight was about to break out.

So Shen Bei grabbed Wang Da Nao Dai by the neck and said: “Damn it, call her sister-in-law!”

Wang Da Nao Dai yelped, then quickly and politely greeted: “Hello, second sister-in-law!”

Jian Tong: ???

Shen Bei: …

“My bad, my bad.” Wang Da Nao Dai quickly realized his mistake and immediately put his palms together in apology: “It’s sister-in-law, it’s sister-in-law.”

“What is a second sister-in-law?” Jian Tong asked Wang Da Nao Dai with a smile.

Wang Da Nao Dai made a sound of realization and defended himself: “I was young and ignorant, who hasn’t had a secret crush, right?”

Shen Bei: …

Jian Tong snorted.

Shen Bei held Wang Da Nao Dai tightly, gritting his teeth and saying: “I want to know, if I kill you, will the country care?”

Wang Da Nao Dai jumped in fright: “It’s not that serious, not that serious… Well, say no more, tonight is a big event, everyone will be there. You bring your sister-in-law, and we old classmates will have a good get-together, drinking beer, beer creates atmosphere!”

Shen Bei stood up and warned: “If you talk nonsense again, I’ll pull out your teeth.”

Wang Da Nao Dai scurried out of the coffee shop, got on his motorcycle, and sped away…

Jian Tong said expressionlessly: “Come on, let me see what the first sister-in-law looks like.”

Shen Bei: …
