"No! Uncle Zhang, Uncle Li, let me go, and I'll immediately call my uncle and have him send resources to you. He'll definitely agree! Believe me! Trust me! He will definitely agree!"

At this moment, Wang Wengang was in a state of panic, shouting anxiously.

Li Zhe and Zhang Chu's eyes lit up, exchanging a glance, somewhat tempted.

"Uncle Li, Uncle Zhang, and all my pirate friends, we are all here for wealth or resources. I was wrong to go against you, but now a massive opportunity stands before us!"

Seeing a chance, Wang Wengang suddenly became bold, casting a sinister glance at Su Qingqing and Lin Ya as he spoke deceitfully:

"Let's have our way with Su Qingqing and Lin Ya together, record a video, and then use it to threaten Lin Bingrui into giving us resources. We can then scatter and escape. As long as one of us gets away, Lin Bingrui won't dare do anything to us. He definitely wouldn't want a video of his niece spreading online. What do you think?"

"That's a good idea!" Li Zhe's eyes gleamed, turning to look at Su Qingqing and Lin Ya with a lewd smile on his face, "I've been interested in these two girls for a while now!"

"Wang Wengang, you bastard! I'm telling you! Unless you kill me, no matter what you hold against me, I'll make sure my uncle hunts you down to the death, especially your Wang Family. I want your Wang Family wiped out!" Lin Ya's expression turned pale, shouting in shock and anger.

Su Qingqing stepped aside to shield Lin Ya, looking nervously at Li Zhe, while Swift Wind Wolf also stepped aside, guarding the two women behind him.

"Wang Wengang, it seems you've forgotten you're still in my hands, right?" Swift Wind Wolf gripped the dagger embedded in Wang Wengang's shoulder and viciously pulled it downward!

Shhhh!

"Ah!"

Wang Wengang screamed in pain, urgently saying, "Swift Wind Wolf, I was wrong back then. I can compensate you. Don't you want your brothers to become stronger? Don't you want Lin Bingrui's cultivation resources? You're only thinking about your hate; why not think about your brothers?"

"He doesn't need to think about that; I'll take care of it!"

A calm voice suddenly sounded, and Jiang Chen, lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes and sat up.

"Jiang Chen!"

Su Qingqing exclaimed joyfully, instantly throwing herself into Jiang Chen's embrace.

"Mr. Jiang!"

Swift Wind Wolf also looked at Jiang Chen with delight.

"Kid, how are you awake?" Li Zhe frowned, staring directly at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen gently patted Su Qingqing's back, softly pushing her aside, then turned to Badger Dog and said, "Thanks, brother. Although that Soul Nourishing Pill of yours was just a poor-quality semi-finished product, it was enough to awaken my Divine Soul!"

At this moment, Jiang Chen's First Soul in his Sea of Consciousness was already awakened. Although still somewhat weak, he could move normally and command his Spiritual Power. As long as there wasn't an attack targeting his Divine Soul, everything else posed no threat.

Moreover, after an unknown amount of time of refinement and tempering from the Eight Yata Mirror, his physical strength had reached an incredible level, no longer posing a concern for his cultivation breakthroughs!

"Mr. Jiang, no need for thanks. You saved my boss, so you are the benefactor of us all!"

Badger Dog waved his hand, looked at Li Zhe and Zhang Chu with guilt, and said, "But, you just woke up. It might lead to your death again! It would've been better if you stayed unconscious; at least you'd still be alive!"

"Well said. So what if you're awake? You're just an extra dead person!" Li Zhe spoke coldly.

Swift Wind Wolf completely relaxed, having witnessed Jiang Chen's abilities before. Heavenly Peak Grandmaster? In Jiang Chen's presence, they were just trash.

Swift Wind Wolf released Wang Wengang, bowed to Jiang Chen, "Mr. Jiang, we meet again!"

"Indeed, I honestly didn't expect that my unintentional action back then would end up saving my life!" Jiang Chen smiled slightly, casting a grateful glance at Swift Wind Wolf.

"I am talking to you!"

A loud shout erupted. Li Zhe was completely enraged after being ignored by Jiang Chen multiple times.

Bzzz!

Li Zhe's entire body erupted with a powerful aura, glaring sinisterly at Jiang Chen, "Kid, you dare ignore me? Ignore a Heavenly Peak Grandmaster? You've completely angered me. I won't let you die peacefully; I'll make you wish you were dead!"

"Uncle Zhang, Uncle Li, kill him! Kill him!" Wang Wengang crawled beside Li Zhe despite the severe pain, pointing at Jiang Chen and yelling.

"Why should I waste words on a dead man?" Jiang Chen glanced dismissively at Wang Wengang and then mocked Li Zhe.

"You're courting death!" Li Zhe fumed and dashed toward Jiang Chen.

Su Qingqing, Badger Dog, and several other men immediately activated their Inner Qi, intending to block the attack for Jiang Chen. They believed that Jiang Chen, having just awoken, was no match for Li Zhe.

Wang Wengang's face lit with delight, staring fixedly at Jiang Chen as if he already saw him being crushed by Li Zhe. A look of excitement appeared on his face, his mind already fantasizing about pressing Su Qingqing and Lin Ya beneath him!

Bzzz!

Suddenly, a robust, unparalleled aura soared toward the sky, pressing down on Li Zhe instantly.

Thud!

The leaping Li Zhe fell to his knees on the floor, looking at Jiang Chen in terror, too shocked to speak!

"Impossible! How can you be so strong!"

Standing at the doorway, Zhang Chu's face turned pale with shock, and he turned to flee.

"Did I allow you to leave?"

Jiang Chen spoke indifferently.

Buzz!

The imposing aura extended, pressing fiercely onto Zhang Chu.

Thud!

Another dull sound, and Zhang Chu also knelt on the ground!

"Damn! Mr. Jiang is this strong?"

"What... what level is Mr. Jiang!?"

"So powerful! His aura overwhelmed Heavenly Peak Grandmasters!?"

Badger Dog and the others exclaimed in shock. Jiang Chen's aura wasn't even directed at them, yet they could feel that overwhelming aura, causing their hearts to quake intensely.

Su Qingqing's eyes filled with pride, looking at Jiang Chen with love and admiration.

This is the man I love, forever appearing when I'm helpless, turning the tide!

"Impossible! Impossible! Uncle Li, Uncle Zhang, did you fall? Get up! Get up and kill him!" Wang Wengang was completely panicked, shouting loudly.

Plop!

Jiang Chen got off the bed, walked indifferently to Li Zhe, and stared coldly at him, "You should not have thought to bully Qing Qing. This decision has completely ended any hope you had of survival."

"W-What are you doing? Spare me! Spare me! I can be your guard, your dog, spare my life! Spare my life!" Li Zhe was about to break down, trembling as he shouted.

"Be my dog? You're unworthy!"

Jiang Chen spoke indifferently and lightly tapped Li Zhe's head with his hand.
