Chapter 214: Chapter 014: He is Chu Ge

Helping Nangong Man Sha was just incidental; Chu Ge acted because he had sensed that the True Qi originally within Nangong Man Sha should have been left by an Innate Grandmaster!

"Innate?" Chu Ge muttered to himself. His True Qi, like the vast Yangtze River, surged into Nangong Man Sha’s meridians without worrying about exceeding the limits since her meridians had previously been expanded by that Innate Grandmaster using acupuncture accompanied by Inner Strength.

"Um—" Nangong Man Sha stifled a groan, biting her lips to prevent herself from screaming out loud, her face as pale as paper, beads of fine sweat even appeared on her forehead.

However, the pain did not last long. After just tens of seconds, Nangong Man Sha’s expression relaxed, replaced by an indescribable feeling of comfort.

Under Chu Ge’s cleansing with his True Qi, some of her meridians were forcefully cleared!

Chu Ge nodded in satisfaction; he had also felt the True Qi within Nangong Man Sha, which was inferior to his own in both quality and quantity.

Thus, he could now most definitely contend against the Innate! Even half the Innate Realm was no match for him.

"How do you feel?" Chu Ge released Nangong Man Sha’s wrist and sat back down.

Nangong Man Sha frowned slightly and carefully felt the changes within her body. After a long while, she suddenly looked up at Chu Ge in astonishment: "What... What did you do to me?"

Due to her impending doom, her meridians had been aching faintly over the past years, but after Chu Ge’s intervention, she felt an unprecedented ease, as if the high master had just given her acupuncture!

"Just extended your life," Chu Ge poured himself a glass of red wine, sipping it lightly: "I have opened up some of your meridians. Although it’s only temporary, it should suffice to extend your life by five to six years. Before you turn thirty, you won’t have to worry about life and death."

"This..." Nangong Man Sha’s eyes widened; after a long silence, she suddenly stepped in front of Chu Ge and bowed deeply, "Nangong Man Sha, thanks Mr. Chu for saving my life!"

This time, there was no trace of coquetry on Nangong Man Sha’s face, only solemn seriousness.

"Mmm." Chu Ge nodded, "Given that you could find out information about me, you presumably also have ways to contact me. Let’s leave it at that, don’t seek me out for a while; I won’t be available."

After that, Chu Ge walked towards the door.

But just as he reached the door, gripping the handle, he paused, looked back at Nangong Man Sha, and said, "Also, a reminder—I do not like being investigated, you understand what I mean?"

"Yes." Facing Chu Ge’s eyes emitting a faint chill, a sudden coldness swept over Nangong Man Sha, making her nod hastily: "Rest assured, Mr. Chu, after you return to Shanghai, I guarantee no one will bother you again!"

Chu Ge was somewhat noncommittal to her words, withdrew his gaze, and then pushed open the door and walked out.

"Miss!"

Only after Chu Ge had left the room did the two old men at the doorway step in and stand before Nangong Man Sha, heads bowed in silence.

"That Chu Ge, what level do you think his strength has reached?" At this moment, Nangong Man Sha was no longer portraying her previous seductive or delicate demeanor, but stood with her hands behind her back, exuding an air of aloof pride, like a queen.

The two old men exchanged glances, and one of them whispered, "He might not be at the Innate level yet, but it’s probably only a paper-thin barrier away!"

Even though she had her suspicions, when truly confirmed, Nangong Man Sha’s eyes uncontrollably flickered.

Twenty-one-year-old Innate Grandmaster... If this news spreads, who knows what tremendous waves it will stir!

"Miss, that young man earlier..." One of the elders recalled the scene where Chu Ge was holding Nangong Man Sha’s wrist and asked with some concern.

Nangong Man Sha’s pretty face blushed slightly, a rare occurrence, but she soon regained her composure and waved her hand, "You all leave first!"

"Yes!" The two elders exchanged glances and simultaneously exited the room.

Meanwhile, Nangong Man Sha stared at the spot where Chu Ge had been sitting before, her lips curving into a dangerous smile, "Hmph, heartless man, I don’t believe I can’t captivate you!"

...

After leaving the room, Chu Ge naturally stopped thinking about that woman and instead looked at the bustling crowd outside, muttering softly, "Hehe, I didn’t expect even one of the Six Great Families of Jing City to be here. The scene is getting livelier!"

Before the meeting, there was a dinner.

As soon as Chu Ge left the room, Zhao Wuji’s call came through, "Mr. Chu, I hope I’m not disturbing you? The dinner has started, would you care to join?"

Chu Ge nodded, reported his location, and then stood waiting.

Soon after, dressed in a white suit, Zhao Wuji hurried over and slightly bowed to Chu Ge, "Mr. Chu, the dinner is about to start. Mr. Ouyang is already on his way there, do you need to change clothes?"

Indeed, Chu Ge was still dressed in his casual clothes.

Chu Ge thought for a moment and then nodded, "Alright, let’s change into formal attire."

After all, wearing casual attire to such an occasion was too disrespectful.

However, as Chu Ge said this, his eyes unintentionally swept across a distant corner, his lips curving into a faint smile, but he ultimately said nothing and turned to Zhao Wuji, "I didn’t bring any formal attire with me this time, does Mr. Zhao have any?"

"Of course." Zhao Wuji nodded repeatedly and made a gesture to invite Chu Ge, "Please follow me, Mr. Chu!"

After saying that, he took the lead to walk ahead, and Chu Ge once again glanced surreptitiously at the corner before gently smiling and following Zhao Wuji out of the corridor.

Shortly after the two left, a head suddenly popped out from around the corner, "Damn, that scared me! I thought he had discovered us earlier!"

Hiding behind the corner was none other than Lin Dong!

Of course, the woman previously referred to as Ms. Liu was also beside him. Ms. Liu swallowed and said softly, "The middle-aged man just now, that was Zhao Wuji, known as the God of Wealth, right?"

"Yes, that’s Zhao Wuji!" Lin Dong was trembling with excitement, "Fuck, what exactly is the identity of that brother, Zhao Wuji was so respectful to him, he is truly a mystery person!"

Ms. Liu was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Right, didn’t Zhao Wuji keep calling him Mr. Chu?"

"Mr. Chu?"

Lin Dong muttered, "Surname Chu, young, Zhao Wuji being extremely respectful toward him... Fuck! Could he—he really be Chu Ge?"
