Chapter 16
…
My mind has opened up to the reality that I am not the only one who has gained the ability to be strong. It seems that ever since I gained this ability to grow the world has also changed. And this is because of the appearance of the thick Qi in the air which has slowly enveloped the whole world.
Along with the changes in the environment, I also saw in the news about the changes in the ecosystem and also the animals.
Plus many parts of the world are experiencing tremors every now and then as it seems that large masses of land are slowly appearing or even expanding.
But the most miraculous thing about this event is that the expansion is happening little by little that most of the people are actually unaware of these changes in their surroundings.
They only realize that it is actually happening, because of the news and through many of the scientists who called this phenomenon 'Rapid Planetary Growth'.
They said that the planet is actually growing in size and mass for some unknown reason.
As I watched and listened, I learned that a lot of things are actually happening and changing in this world.
My naïve thoughts of being strong enough to exact my revenge seem to have wavered a little bit. But as I look at the TV screen, I could not help but showed a smirk in my mouth.
"Is that what they call fast? Is that what they call strong?" I muttered.
I didn't know why, but I feel that these people are amazed at something really trivial. When I saw the large animals which they called monsters, I almost laughed as I have encountered far more vicious and bigger animals than those in the forest.
I also seem to have noticed that the animals in the forest did not want to go out of their own territories. It's like they prefer to be inside their own sphere than go out and invade others.
As I thought up to this point, I suddenly saw something on the news.
A young man is currently fighting against a group of thugs. And when my eyes landed on the figure which seems to be leading the thugs, anger immediately filled my body.
"Lin Ting… You… you will be the first to fall…" I muttered as I feel a strong killing intent surrounding my body.
While in this state, someone suddenly knocks on my door.
"Excuse me… Brother Wei…" a melodious voice interrupted my thoughts as I regained my calm.
I opened the door and saw Lee Wanwan wearing a loose shirt and blue denim shorts. Her perfectly shaped white legs are as smooth as a jade's surface, which can make a man want to touch it for a feel.
I immediately controlled myself and shifted my gaze towards her and saw her beautiful face, but her expression seems odd. It looks like she was in pain.
"Are you okay?" I asked showing a bit of concern towards her.
"Ugh… I… I don't know… when I was about to approach your room a while ago, I feel my body frozen and I was not able to move… but… But I think it is fine now." she said while biting her lips.
"Oh…" I muttered as my intense killing intent seems to have affected her.
I'm already aware of this as I have used this when I was in the forest. While hunting, I would either hide my killing intent or show it. It's already a part of my active skill, it's called Killing Aura.
"You wanted something Sister Wanwan?" I suddenly asked to interrupt her.
"Ah… I… I just wanted to thank you. I didn't get the chance… I heard from my grandpa that you are going back to city H… I… I'm just worried about you. City H is such a chaotic place, are you really going to go back there?" she said with a tinge of concern in her tone.
I did not reply as I look down on the ground. As I lifted my face, I showed her a faint smile.
"I know… But I still need to take care of my parents and my friend…" I replied.
Lee Wanwan seems to have noticed my sadness as she suddenly patted my shoulder.
"Brother Wei, cheer up! I know that your parents are going to be fine. And you are very strong; I know that you will also be alright." She said trying to appease my emotion.
Deep inside my heart, I feel warm; I seem to be seeing Lin Qiao in Lee Wanwan. Their way of encouraging me and gentleness made me feel that she truly cares.
I just nodded my head and we both said our goodnights.
…
While Lee Wanwan is returning to her room, someone suddenly appears from a dark corner.
"Che… Acting like some virtuous woman and visiting a man's room in the middle of the night. I wonder how that stupid Dongfang Lin let her escape. Maybe she was able to serve him really well…" Lee Baitong said while his eyes stealthily look at Lee Wanwan's curvy figure and lick his lips.
"Since you are already a loose woman, I would want to get a taste of you myself then…" He muttered as he stealthily followed Lee Wanwan.
A plan is already being formed inside his head and he knew that in this huge mansion, almost everyone is already asleep. When he came out, he already figured out that his grandfather is already asleep. And the other relatives and guests in this mansion are also asleep.
Lee Baitong is really familiar with this place as he has often visited the mansion when he has time. And as someone who is used to go out stealthily of their own house and do unscrupulous things outside, he is somewhat an expert in doing these things.
For a very long time, he has lusted after Lee Wanwan's beauty and has tried to control himself because her father is the current right-hand person of the old patriarch. But after knowing the news of Lee Wanwan's kidnapping, he could not control it anymore. In fact, he wanted to go wild because of what his mother did.
But he could not change the fact that she was already raped by that bastard Dongfang Lin. But what baffled him, is how that young man was able to take Dongfang Lin's phone. And How Lee Wanwan was saved.
He could not believe that she escaped unscathed, judging from the perverted nature of the Dongfang Lin guy.
"If she is really a loose woman, then she would not tell on me, right? There would be no evidence as she is already not a virgin… Hehe… But… If she really is still a virgin, then I… I would just marry her… Hihihi…" Lee Baitong laughed in his mind as his expression turned nasty.
As he stealthily followed Lee Wanwan, he saw her turning on the corner towards her room.
His mind immediately was filled with excitement. While following Lee Wanwan, he could help but smell the lingering scent she would leave in the corridor. This sweet smell of a woman is already making his heart pound faster.
He could not control his desire as his lower part is already bulging upon imagining that soft and supple body to be under him as he would ravage her all night long. He could also see her beautiful face making that pained look and her pleading tone while he would pound her under him.
His imagination is running really hard as every step he made makes him excited that his heart could not help but skip a beat when he suddenly discovers Lee Wanwan stopping for a moment.
Lee Baitong suddenly moves to the corner and hid within the shadow of the large vase in the corridor.
He waited while watching Lee Wanwan thinking for a moment and showing a faint smile on her face.
"Damn it! Is she thinking of that country bumpkin? I swear that if I get her tonight, I will not let that country bumpkin off after I get my fill with her… Wait a minute… Hehe… I could even try to make her faint then drag that bastard into her room. Then it would look like he was the one who raped her… that's right… I could do that!" Lee Baitong suddenly thought of an idea which overwrites his previous plan.
Then when Lee Wanwan suddenly turns around and seems to have decided to walk inside her room, Lee Baitong suddenly came out of the corner.
…
I have already noticed the strange person following behind Lee Wanwan, I did not follow and just used my sharp sense to see that person's next action. His movement is very weird and his footsteps are in tiptoes as if he is some thief.
I knew that this person is thinking something bad.
Then suddenly he made a move which made me muttered.
"This is bad…"
Chapter 17
(unedited)
…
With a dark desire and lust-filled eyes, I saw Lee Baitong suddenly wanting to grab Lee Wanwan from behind. His expression of excitement and yearning are expressed in his face as his eyes are glowing with complicated feelings.
However, how could I let him do as he wished?
Without a second thought, I suddenly take a step and moved behind Lee Baitong. Before he could do anything I already grabbed his neck and hit his acupoints to render him immobile.
Lee Wanwan enters her room without noticing the figure of Lee Baitong who is standing in one of the corners while his eyes are showing confusion as he could not move his body and he is in the posture of grabbing someone.
I suddenly hit his neck which made him faint. Then I drag him towards his room and put him in bed. As I left that room, I was feeling a bit sinister and contented with what I have done and I could not help but show a smile on my face.
The next morning, I open my eyes after a night of absorbing Qi. I could see that in my stats my Qi has returned to 150. However, it seems that I'm stuck to 150 for now as no matter how much I tried to absorb, it just enters my body and would flow towards the pea-size object near my heart.
At this time, I did not know what to do and so I just decided to work with what I have for now.
As I went through my stuff, I began to arrange and prepare everything for my departure to City H. After going through my preparation, I then carried my backpack and walks down the stairs.
Lee Wanwan's figure also came out of her room, she is wearing a white printed shirt and shorts which showed too much of her skin. Although I was a bit distracted, I was able to avert my eyes and showed her a faint smile.
I noticed that the gaze of Lee Wanwan seems odd as if she was stunned upon seeing me.
"Good morning!" she suddenly greeted with an awkward expression on her lovely face.
"Good morning!" I casually greeted back.
"Are… are you leaving already?" she suddenly asked as she saw my backpack.
"Yes… I have to return today… Thank you for the hospitality."
"Umn… you're welcome. Before leaving, have breakfast with us first." Lee Wanwan invited which I did not reject.
As I went down the dining room, I saw that there are already a group of people currently sitting on the long dining table. The servants are busy serving food as the people discuss amongst them their own businesses.
When I appear in front of them, everyone is looking at me with strange gazes. Some of the young women sitting at the table are throwing me some flirty smiles which made me feel awkward. I am not used to this kind of feeling.
The attention given to me right now is unnerving for me.
"Young lad… Come, have breakfast with us." the old man said with a smile.
"Thank you, Elder Lee…"
I did not bother with anyone as I ate my breakfast, but I could feel the gazes that are thrown in my direction which made my skin crawl.
"I never would have imagined that he is still young and he looks really handsome…"
"Yesterday, I thought he is just a bum… damn it, why is Wanwan that lucky to find a guy?"
"She did not deserve him…"
The young women suddenly discussed in a hushed tone, but I could hear them because of my sharp hearing. However, I did not bother with them.
After eating, I thanked Elder Lee and walked out of the front porch of the huge mansion.
"Wait… Brother Wei… Can… Can I ask you a question?" Lee Wanwan suddenly said.
"You… you were the one who saves me and my classmates in the forest, right? You're that mysterious guy…" she said with a blush.
I was a bit dumbstruck as I did not expect that she would say this. Wait? Did she saw me at that time?
"I… I was barely conscious but… I say a person carrying me inside the tent and then closing it… Plus… the backpack… It's… It's one of my school mate's…" she said as she suddenly grabs the metal tag on the backpack zipper.
"I give it to him as a birthday present… He is one of my college friends." She said with a smile.
I did not say anything as I knew that she has already recognized it. What can I say? Anyway, it's true…
I just nodded my head and gave her a smile.
"Thank you… you've saved me twice, and I… I don't know how to pay you…" she said.
Then suddenly, she seems to have thought of something as she suddenly grabs my hand.
"Wait… Don't go yet, okay?" Lee Wanwan ran inside the house and after 2 minutes, she suddenly came out.
"This… Please accept this. It would be helpful in your travels…" she handed me a bank card which made me frown.
"This is the only thing I can think of on how to repay you… the password of the card is xxxxxx…"
I left the Lee Mansion and directly went to the bus terminal. As soon as I arrive, I saw a lot of police officers checking the bags of those who go in and out of the terminal.
I think they started doing this because of the situation in City H. Since large syndicates and gangs are rampant in the city, other cities became strict in accepting those who enter and exit the city.
Thinking up to this point, I suddenly realize that I have to leave the blade inside my bag. So instead of getting in line, I walk to a corner and began rummaging inside my bag. Most of the clothes I have in there are camping clothes and have already been washed in the Lee Mansion. Hence the blades underneath the backpack are my only problem.
Where to dump them I did not know.
Suddenly an idea came unto me. I rearrange my backpack and seeing that everything is according to what I have in mind, I walk to the side and wore the mountaineering clothes I have.
Then I return in line.
When it was my time to be checked, the security checker frowns upon seeing the metal and blades inside my backpack. When his eyes landed on me, he seems to show a knowing look in his eyes.
"Going home?" he asked suddenly.
"Ah, yes… I stayed in the mountain for a long time… I missed home." I said with an excited expression on my face.
"Well, it's nice to climb mountains nowadays," he added while double-checking the clothes inside my bag.
"Ah, yes… Look, I found some herbs… I can't wait to give it to my grandpa. I think it would help him get well…" I replied while taking a small wooden box on the side of the bag.
When the man saw me trying to open the wooden box, he shook his head.
"It's okay, it's okay… Just proceed to the terminal…" he said with a smile.
"Thank you!" I replied politely.
I was able to get on the bus to City H without a hitch.
It would take around 12 hours of travel to City H, so I have a lot of time to plan out my next move upon arriving in the city.
I knew that today the time has come for me to exact my revenge. I knew that today I will be able to see those who killed Lin Qiao and my parents. Those faces that have haunted me in my dreams, the heavy conscience in my heart which has made me feel grief and sorrow. Now I can see my parent's grave if ever there is one, and also go back to see the old man's urn ash and return it to his family.
I have a lot of things to do and debt to collect from people who owed me.
I will not stop until I get the justice I deserve, and I know I can get it with these hands of mine.
As I was thinking thus far, the bus has already left the terminal.
I haven't noticed it but seated beside me is a woman wearing a cap and dark shades. I could not see her face clearly, but the scent of her light perfume is not repulsive. In fact, it has attracted my attention at this time.
I took a glance at her, but suddenly noticed the man on the opposite side of the aisle seat. The man would look at the woman every now and then, and I could see that he seem to be thinking of something. I suddenly heard him whisper to his seatmate.
"This woman looks really fine… I think we can get her upon arriving in City H… Hihi…"
Deep in my heart, I could already feel the lawlessness that is really happening in City H. How could a normal person think of getting a woman just because they have their eyes on her? It really disgusts me to think that some people would think as such.
