My Sexy CEO Wife-Chapter 258 - 257: Sneak Attack Succeeds

Jin Chaoyang was the Great Elder of Tianyang Sect, second only to the Sect Leader, and had cultivated to the Tenth Level of the Golden Core Stage many years ago. He attempted to reach the Nascent Soul Stage several times but failed each time. However, Jin Chaoyang was not discouraged; in fact, he became more determined. This kind of mentality was not something ordinary people could compare to.

Only those with a strong mental fortitude could achieve greater success.

A few days ago, Jin Chaoyang entered closed-door cultivation again, aiming for the Nascent Soul Stage.

Whether he could succeed this time was a matter of luck.

Jin Chaoyang was a recognized prodigy of his generation, a cultivation genius acknowledged by all. Yet, he had a son who was a complete failure. His son, Jin Dalong, had extremely poor cultivation talent and spent ten years only to reach the Second Layer of the Qi Gathering Stage, which was a big disappointment to Jin Chaoyang.

Jin Dalong was no good at cultivation, but he was particularly adept at causing trouble; he lived up to the old saying that there was nothing he couldn't imagine doing or dare not do! Some people gossiped behind his back, saying Jin Dalong was Tianyang Sect's biggest disaster, and that the heavens should strike him down with Divine Thunder.

Jin Chaoyang was extremely protective of his shortcomings, no matter how much trouble his son caused, he would handle it all by himself. Excessive indulgence led Jin Dalong to develop a haughty character. In his heart, heaven was first, his old man second, and he himself was third.

...

Jin Dalong was very self-aware; knowing that he wasn't cut out for cultivation, he gave up and focused all his attention on enjoying life. Every day, he indulged in good food, good drinks, and fun, occasionally bullying those around him, which made him feel especially thrilled.

Early in the morning, Jin Dalong took a group of flunky friends down the mountain to play, not returning until it was dark.

When he returned, Jin Dalong was red-faced and thick-necked; he staggered as he walked and slurred his speech—a clear sign that he was drunk.

"Today was really fun," Jin Dalong laughed raucously, his voice hoarse and unpleasant to the ear, "Let's do it again in a couple of days; we'll have a good time."

"Sure, we'll do as Young Master Jin says," everyone agreed, "Whatever Young Master Jin says, goes."

"Alright, go to sleep now," Jin Dalong waved them off, "Get a good night's sleep, recharge, and we'll play soccer tomorrow."

"We should take you back..."

"No need! I can make it back on my own! Don't worry, this is Tianyang Sect, no one dares to mess with me!"

"Okay then, we're off."

...

After his flunky friends left, Jin Dalong swayed and hummed a tune as he headed toward his own dwelling.

"Uh..."

All of a sudden, Jin Dalong felt the urge to pee. He went behind a rock, unzipped his pants, and started to relieve himself.

Just then, a shadowy figure approached from behind and raised a large hammer to smash down on the back of Jin Dalong's head.

"Whoosh!"

"Bang!"

"Uh!"

After taking a blow, Jin Dalong collapsed on the spot. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Didn't kill him, did I?" Gao Fei squatted down to check Jin Dalong's breathing, "Hmm, he's still breathing, not dead." Assured that Jin Dalong was still alive, Gao Fei relaxed, sheathed his hammer, and began to search Jin Dalong.

"What's this? A handkerchief? The scent is way too strong!"

"What's this? A Luminous Pearl?"

"Damn, so much silver! A real wealthy guy!"

"Hey? This necklace is quite special... it has a Storage Space inside, huh, and quite a lot inside the space..."

After ransacking everything on Jin Dalong's body, Gao Fei swiftly left the scene.

...

"Huh? Gao Fei, where did you go? Why are you back so late?" Zhu Xiaoliang asked in confusion.

"Had a stomachache," Gao Fei casually replied, "I'm not feeling well today; I won't cultivate." As he spoke, Gao Fei took off his shoes and clothes, then lay down on the bed.

"Are you okay?" Zhu Xiaoliang asked, concerned, "Should I go get some medicine from the manager?"

"No need, I'll be fine after a sleep," Gao Fei shook his head.

"Alright, you sleep then. Call me if you need anything." Zhu Xiaoliang tucked Gao Fei in, then went back to his bed and started to cultivate with a secret manual.

As he lay on the bed with his eyes closed and his breathing even, Gao Fei appeared to be asleep, but in reality, he was wide awake. At that moment, he was chatting with Xuan Jizi using his mental power.

"Gao Fei, you're really audacious," Xuan Jizi said, "To dare to rob someone within Tianyang Sect. Have you thought about it? What if you get caught, how will you handle it?"

"But I wasn't caught, was I," Gao Fei said nonchalantly.

"That's because you got lucky," Xuan Jizi snorted, "Good luck won't always follow you. You need to be more careful in the future; don't be so reckless."

"Can't help it," Gao Fei sighed, "Without robbing that Jin brat, I couldn't get the secret manual for repairing my dantian."

"Did you get the manual?" Xuan Jizi asked.

"Got it," Gao Fei nodded, "The Jin brat didn't disappoint me; he had quite a few goodies on him. There were several Spell Manuals, all high-level ones, and a lot of silver..."

"Now that you've found the manual for repairing your dantian, you should start cultivating immediately. Once you regain your cultivation, leave Tianyang Sect right away," Xuan Jizi said.

"Why leave Tianyang Sect?" Gao Fei laughed, "I'm thinking of staying to become an elder."

"Elder? You think you can become an elder with your qualifications?"

"Why not? I've already looked into it, as long as my cultivation reaches the Golden Core Stage I can become an elder. Once I'm an elder, I will have access to a lot of cultivation resources, and a bunch of disciples to order around. Whatever I want, I just have to say the word and someone will bring it to me immediately."

"You're oversimplifying things."

"It's you who's overthinking it."

"Suit yourself, do whatever you want, but I'm warning you to think carefully before you act. Don't get yourself into trouble. The Tianyang Sect has Nascent Soul Cultivators, and if you provoke them, they could slap you to death with a single strike."

"Enough, stop nagging, I know what to do."

...

"Clang clang clang..."

Just as Gao Fei was about to fall asleep, a harsh noise suddenly erupted outside.

"Uh? What's happened?" Gao Fei opened his eyes and sat up, turned around, and saw Zhu Xiaoliang still flipping through the secret manual. Gao Fei chuckled, "You really work hard, kiddo. It's almost dawn and you're still not sleeping?"

"I want to become an Inner Sect Disciple sooner and learn more advanced spells," Zhu Xiaoliang said, "then go down the mountain for revenge."

"Mhm, you'll succeed," Gao Fei nodded affirmatively.

"Clang!"

The tightly closed door was suddenly flung open, and a group of people stormed in.

"Everyone up and stand in line!" the man leading the group shouted loudly.

"What happened?" All six people living in the room got out of bed and stood in line.

"Just now, Elder Jin's son was attacked," the man leading said. "Do any of you know who did it?"

"How would we know?" Zhu Xiaoliang frowned, "We've all been sleeping in here and haven't gone out."

"We've just joined the Tianyang Sect. We don't even know who Elder Jin is, let alone recognize his son."

"Moreover, we have no cultivation at all. Even if we wanted to attack Elder Jin's son, we couldn't do it."

"We would never dare assault an elder's son, unless we were tired of living."

...

"Really don't know?" the man leading shouted with a questioning tone.

"We don't know," Zhu Xiaoliang and the others shook their heads.

"If I find out you're lying, prepare to be executed!" With that, the man huffed and left, and the others who had come with him also exited the room.

"This is absolutely ridiculous!"

"Elder Jin's son gets attacked, and they suspect us?"

"Could we even attack an elder's son?"

"Let's drop it, guys, say no more. It's late, let's go back to sleep. We have work tomorrow."

...

Zhu Xiaoliang glanced at Gao Fei, opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.

"What's up?" Gao Fei asked.

"You went out just now..." Zhu Xiaoliang hesitated.

Gao Fei raised an eyebrow: "You suspect that I attacked Elder Jin's son? You really think too highly of me. A regular person like me, dare to attack Elder Jin's son? Besides, why would I attack Elder Jin's son? I don't even know him!"

"What are you getting so worked up about? I was just saying it off the cuff," Zhu Xiaoliang said. "I admit, I thought too much, and I shouldn't have suspected you. I apologize to you."

"You can't just say things like that carelessly. Say it too much and it can hurt feelings. I'm tired, going to sleep." Gao Fei took off his shoes, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep almost immediately, snoring away.

After everything that happened, Zhu Xiaoliang no longer felt like cultivating. He placed the secret manual under his pillow and lay on the bed to rest.

...

Inside a luxurious room,

Jin Dalong lay in bed cursing furiously: "Bastard! Son of a bitch! Don't let me find out who did it, or I'll have you torn to pieces!!!" His head was wrapped in a bandage with some bloodstains on it. Gao Fei's hammer really did a number on him, and his head was still buzzing.

"Son, think carefully again. Who ambushed you?" a middle-aged woman asked.

"I've said it many times, I don't know, I just don't know," Jin Dalong said furiously: "I was drunk, standing behind a rock peeing, and then someone hit the back of my head, and I passed out." At this point, Jin Dalong's eyes turned blood-red, and his expression was ferociously terrifying: "When I woke up, I realized that all my belongings were gone. I was actually robbed?

Inside the Tianyang Sect, can you believe it? It's a damn joke!!!"

"Have you offended anyone recently?" the middle-aged woman continued to ask.

"There are plenty of people I've offended!" Jin Dalong said, "So far, there are thousands of people who have been offended by me."

"The culprit must have come prepared," the middle-aged woman frowned and said. "To knock you out and then loot your belongings... Until now, I have not understood the culprit's intentions. Did they come for you personally, or for something you possessed?"
