Chapter 163: Chapter 0163: Meeting Zhao Wuji

The muscular man was startled, but the elder beside him was much more composed in comparison, chuckling lightly, "Since we’ve been caught peeping, it’s only right to meet them."

Before the muscular man could react, the elder had already stepped on the eaves and traversed the kilometer distance, jumping directly in front of Chu Ge. The muscular man hesitated for a few seconds, then quickly followed behind the elder.

He’s an expert!

Chu Ge’s eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at the elder who had appeared before him.

This old man looked white-haired and frail, even walking with a cane as if a single push could knock him down. However, Chu Ge could feel a powerful aura emanating from him, even stronger than the combined force of those five men earlier!

"Shanghai has been quite lively recently, is this the power display of two major hidden sects?"

"Our Vajra Sect is indeed out in full force," the elder said, pretending not to notice the sarcasm in Chu Ge’s words, he shook his head and smiled. "But the Ghost Poison Sect may not be the same; there are still two Innate Grandmasters holding the fort back at their lair."

"A visit is certainly due," Chu Ge replied without a hint of awe for those so-called two Innate Grandmasters, which caused the elder to frown slightly, branding him as recklessly arrogant in his mind.

"So, what’s the purpose of your visit tonight, same as these people?" Chu Ge suddenly changed the subject, speaking coldly as he looked at the two.

The muscular man hastily stepped forward to stand beside the elder, assuming a defensive stance.

"Hahaha," the elder laughed and shook his head: "It’s different. This time we’ve come to Shanghai, you indeed are our target. However, our Vajra Sect is not like those sly villains from the Ghost Poison Sect. One month from now, in Huo Tianqian’s underground fighting arena, we shall determine the superior and fight to the death!"

As the elder spoke, his back was ramrod straight, a domineering aura bursting forth from him.

"Good!" Chu Ge looked at him deeply and agreed without any hesitation. Perfectly timed, as he also planned to use this month to completely eliminate all remnants of the Ghost Poison Sect lurking in Shanghai!

Following this exchange, the elder slowly walked away along the road with the muscular man in tow.

Meanwhile, Chu Ge focused his attention on the young people around him.

These were the low-ranking disciples of the Ghost Poison Sect, who hadn’t even reached the Innate Realm. With just a light finger point from Chu Ge, their acupoints were sealed, leaving them to lie obediently on the cold ground.

Seeing Chu Ge’s gaze shift towards them, they all shivered in unison.

They had all witnessed the scene of Chu Ge fighting with the elders from their sect, beings who, in their eyes, were divine and invincible!

Now, this young man who appeared to be their age, had casually defeated those elders with just a few punches.

"Go back and tell your people, their heads are temporarily still perched on their necks, stored for the time being. Soon, I’ll come personally and claim them one by one!"

Chu Ge said with a cold laugh, picked up a few pebbles, and flicked them with his fingers, unlocking all the acupoints of the disciples.

"Clean this place up, and get out of here!"

However, the few looked at each other, but none dared to move.

Until Chu Ge snorted coldly, "Humph, do I need to make a personal request?"

"Yes, we’ll get out of here right away, right away!" One of the quicker-witted ones immediately jumped up, and with a lead, the other few also got up and began to sprinkle powder on the bloodstains on the ground.

Within just a few minutes, aside from the scene of destruction from the battle, not a trace of blood could be seen, and the five corpses had been stuffed into large hemp sacks by the disciples.

Watching as the group hurried away, a cryptic smile suddenly appeared on Chu Ge’s face.

Of course, he wasn’t possibly so kindhearted as to simply let them go; while he had released their acupuncture points earlier, Chu Ge had also attached a strand of True Qi to a pebble, silently infiltrating their bodies.

In other words, these people were unwittingly leading the way for Chu Ge!

...

A quiet night passed, and early the next morning, Mu Bingtong had gotten up early. Upon seeing breakfast neatly laid out on the table and Chu Ge smiling at her from beside it, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Last night, I seemed to hear some commotion outside. Because you told me not to leave the room, I didn’t interfere," Mu Bingtong said before sitting down at the dining table to eat breakfast.

"Uh-huh," Chu Ge nodded. "You don’t need to worry about these things. Leave it all to me."

After breakfast, Chu Ge dropped Mu Bingtong off at the company, and then he drove himself to another destination.

After all, today was just for interviews; no other work was required, and the two interviewers could handle it just fine. Now, he was prepared to look for a few individuals.

Tianrui Bank.

Zhao Wuji seemed to have anticipated Chu Ge returning to find him; at this moment, the entire seventh floor was completely empty. The lobby manager was already waiting at the entrance early on. As Chu Ge arrived, he led him straight to the seventh floor.

Inside the General Manager’s office, Zhao Wuji stood by the floor-to-ceiling window with a wine glass in hand. Seeing Chu Ge arriving, he waved his hand, and the lobby manager nodded before leaving, closing the door behind him.

"Mr. Chu, you really showed divine might last night!"

Zhao Wuji turned his head and spoke with undisguised shock in his eyes. If the source of the information had not been extremely reliable, he would have thought it was just bragging.

"Oh?" Chu Ge’s expression shifted slightly as he took the wine glass Zhao Wuji offered and casually sat on the sofa: "Has the word of this matter spread so quickly?"

"I have special channels," said Zhao Wuji, who then sat down on the sofa across from Chu Ge: "The Magic City Martial Arts World is already boiling over, completely because of two incidents."

"Go on," Chu Ge slightly furrowed his brows, his movements barely perceptible. He was not yet able to access the inner circle of the Martial Arts World, so he was completely unaware of some related news.

"The first incident is the wanted notice issued by the Ghost Poison Sect. They say that anyone who can kill you and retrieve the statue will be allowed to join the Ghost Poison Sect and be personally taken as a disciple by the Sect Leader!" At this point, Zhao Wuji’s gaze turned misty, and he sighed, "Heh, being taken as a disciple by an Innate Grandmaster, for a martial artist, it’s almost an irresistible temptation."

"A wanted notice?" Chu Ge’s expression darkened, and he muttered coldly with a sneer: "Ghost Poison Sect, your actions are becoming more and more reckless."

"And there’s a second matter." Zhao Wuji quickly adjusted his mood, this time with a very serious look on his face: "Elder Shi of the Vajra Sect has challenged you to a duel of life and death in one month!"

"Hmm, he told me face to face last night," Chu Ge responded without much reaction.

"Do you know about Elder Shi’s story?" Zhao Wuji shook his head and said in a deep voice, "He once was a true Innate Grandmaster!"
