“The Blue Wolf of Jiangbei and the top general of grandmaster Chen! I will give you one minute to kneel, admit your errors, and get the hell out. Then… I might let you live!”
The bystanders were all surprised.
“The Blue Wolf! He’s the Blue Wolf?”
“I heard that under Grandfather Chen, the Blue Wolf is the fiercest and the most vicious fighter! One time, someone tried to assassinate Grandfather Chen; but thankfully, Blue Wolf was on the scene. Using his strength alone, he managed to topple over 200 people! The fight turned the streets blood red!”
“Ssss~! What a menace. Even so, only Grandfather Chen could suppress him!”
“Now, this youngster comes to the bathhouse trying to stir up trouble only to run into the Blue Wolf… Hehe. Pretty sure he’s not leaving here alive!”
The bystanders continued to discuss spiritedly as they looked at Xiao Chen with their faces full of expectations.
On the contrary, the man in question, Xiao Chen, did not seem perturbed at all.
“You asked me to bow without asking me who I am. Don’t you think you’re being too rash?”
“Hahaha…”
The Blue Wolf cackled.
“Interesting! Very interesting! I haven’t ran into such a crazy person in a long time! Let me tell you the truth! I’ve been doing business with Grandfather Chen in Jiangbei for several years now. And I can tell you, is there anyone with half a reputation in Jiangbei that I don’t know of? But hey, I’ve never seen your face in the upper class of Jiangbei! Coincidence?”
Xiao Chen squinted his eyes that glinted like the icy tips of daggers.
“You… will know!”
As soon as his words were spoken, two cold flashes appeared that glowed like lightning. Immediately after that, the huge body of the Blue Wolf fell to the ground.
Fresh blood spilled and spread, and the Blue Wolf’s gaze remained still, full of desperation and shock.
He didn’t know what Xiao Chen had done.
What kind of person was Xiao chen?
In the entire bathhouse, there was a brief silence before all hell broke loose.
“God! He… He actually killed the Blue Wolf!”
“How did he do it? I didn’t even see him move!”
“Is this guy a human or a monster?”
…
Xiao Chen did not mind the bystanders and only returned his gaze to the staff member from before.
“You have two minutes to expel everyone from my sight!”
Hearing this, the staff member shivered. She didn’t dare waste more time; she crawled back up and began to shout.
“Everyone, leave the bathhouse immediately! Hurry, hurry! Anyone who staggers will lose their lives!”
Realistically, she didn’t need to say anything. The bystanders did not dare stay for an extra second.
Jesus Christ. The Blue Wolf was such a terrifying force, yet he couldn’t even dodge one attack from this guy. What could us, ordinary folks, do?
In a minute and a half, the entire bathhouse was emptied.
Inside the empty halls, it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
The staff member looked at Xiao Chen, shivering, as she said:
“S-Sir, I’ve already done as you asked and got rid of everyone. Can you please spare me?”
Xiao Chen did not spare her a second glance. He clutched his daughter and entered the baths.
“Prepare my daughter a nutritious meal—the best kind! And some clothes—the best brand names! Afterward, leave me one of your fingers as an apology to my daughter.”
The staff member sighed in relief. Although she would lose a finger, at least she would leave alive unlike the Blue Wolf.
She hurriedly bowed to Xiao Chen’s back.
“Yes, sir. I will do as you ask!”
Xiao Chen entered the baths and removed the tattered clothes from his daughter. He then brought her into the bath and helped remove the dirt on her body.
The child was terrified and hung onto Xiao Chen’s neck, refusing to let go.
Xiao Chen felt his heart ache as he treated her gently, afraid of hurting her.
Her fresh skin was interlaced with new and old scars, each one hurting Xiao Chen like a knife to his chest.
Soon, tears blurred his vision.
How could such a small child endure so much?
This is his own flesh and blood, ah! For them to go as far as to bully and humiliate!
As the girl curiously looked at the scars on Xiao Chen’s body, she began to laugh.
Xiao Chen did not only cry like she did, but he was also covered in scars, just like her. It seemed like they really were of the same species!
Xiao Chen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, but he felt a bitter sensation in his chest.
“Little girl, thank you. I will never leave you again, and I will take you to find your mommy. Soon, the three of us can be together! Forever. We will not separate.”
The little girl stared at Xiao Chen blankly. She didn’t understand a word he said.
Xiao Chen stroked her damp forehead and continued.
“You are my daughter, Xiao Chen’s daughter. Although you have suffered for the last five years, your future will be a royal one! From today on, your name will be Xiao Ziyi—the empress of the universe!”
The little girl understood some of the last part. She waved her weak little hands as her big eyes sparkled.
Seeing his daughter happy, Xiao Chen’s spirits were also naturally lifted.
“Good baby. You must be hungry, ah? Come, Daddy will take you to eat breakfast!”
Inside the main hall, the staff member had already prepared a delicious and complete breakfast for Xiao Chen and his daughter.
Sweet bread, mellow milk, caviar, and other luxurious food awaited them…
Xiao Ziyi saw the delicacies, and her eyes lit up immediately. She was too timid to approach and could only look at Xiao Chen with pitiful eyes.
Xiao Chen patted her head and smiled.
“Go ahead! These are all for you.”
Xiao Ziyi heard this and immediately darted towards the table and began scarfing down food.
Xiao Chen didn’t know whether to smile or cry as he persuaded:
“Slow down; there’s no one else here to fight with you!”
Xiao Ziyi looked as if she hadn’t eaten in days as she wolfed down every item on the table.
If it wasn’t for Xiao Chen’s fear of overeating as he stopped her, bathed her again, and dressed her, Xiao Ziyi might have died from being too stuffed.
The clothes the staff member had picked out were appropriate, and they fit Xiao Ziyi quite well.
Although her body was relatively thin with jaundiced skin, she had the aura of a princess after putting on her new clothes.
Xiao Chen’s heart itched a little bit upon seeing how happy she was.
In the past five years, is this his daughter’s first set of new clothes?
Xiao Ziyi pointed to the dirty clothes in the corner. Xiao Chen shook his head.
“You won’t be wearing that kind of clothes anymore. Daddy will buy you the best.”
Soon after he finished speaking, he picked up his daughter and headed outside.
Just as Xiao Chen and Xiao Ziyi left the bathhouse gate, a row of Mercedes-Benz Maybach hurriedly pulled to a stop in front of Xiao Chen.
