Chapter 3

Author: Shrimp in Trouble Waters
Half an hour later, Chase found the Turners’ Residence according to the address given to him by the old man.

Henry Turner, who was close to 50, smiled as he finished reading the letter given to him inside the living room. “It’s true. It’s the writing of that esteemed man.”

“Now do you believe who I am, Uncle Henry?”

Chase asked, “The old man told me that you asked for his help right before he died. He requested that I protect your family. Can you tell me what happened?”

Henry sighed. “It’s like this, Chase. A business competitor wrote me a letter anonymously to tell me that he would kidnap my daughter.

“I’ve hired five bodyguards for her, but she has been spoiled by me since young. All five of them have been chased off by her.

“After giving this thorough consideration, I decided to ask for your master’s help.”

Henry smiled at Chase. “Your master has given me the solution in the letter you brought me. You need to be my daughter’s fiancé. That will give you a good reason to protect her.”

Chase frowned. “I don’t think that’s appropriate, Uncle Henry.”

“There’s nothing inappropriate about this unless you’re looking to disobey his orders.”

With a smile, Henry continued, “I approve of you as my son-in-law. It’s decided, then.”

Chase had no idea what else to say. “Alright. But I’ll only protect your daughter for three months.”

He quietly disagreed with this. This old man had always caused trouble for others when he was alive, and even in death, he was giving trouble to his disciple.

If he had known that his master would do this to him, Chase would not have been so nice as to buy so much porn for him when he was alive.

A cold voice rang out right then. “I don’t agree with this, Dad!”

The next moment, Chase saw a woman running in angrily. She did not have makeup on, but her features were exquisite. Her long hair fell over her shoulders, and she had long, slender legs that were fair and smooth.

Behind her was a middle-aged woman who looked like she had taken good care of herself. The woman looked like she was about 40.

Riley Turner had fire spitting out of her eyes.

All she did was go out shopping with her mother and in that period of time, her father had already arranged a fiancé for her.

The fiancé he got for her looked no different than a beggar. She would be a laughingstock if her friends found out about this.

“Are you crazy, Henry? This boy isn’t good enough for Riley,” Henry’s wife, Laura Holland, said coldly.

“This is all for Riley’s good. You’ll understand the reason for this in the future,” Henry tried to calm them down.

Riley stamped her feet. “Dad, I'll never marry a beggar like him even if it kills me.”

“I don’t agree to this either.”

Laura objected to this loudly.

Henry was enraged. “This has been decided. There is no room for discussion. Chase, I’ll be handing my daughter over to you.”

“Don’t worry, Uncle Henry. I’ll make sure to protect her well,” Chase promised.

Smiling, Henry said, “Riley, bring Chase with you to buy some daily necessities. It’s his first time here, and he doesn’t know the city well.

“By the way, bring Chase to your company tomorrow as well for an interview.

“Isn’t your colleague’s uncle the HR manager there? Just inform your colleague to arrange for Chase to work in your company.”

Riley was almost bursting into tears, but she knew her father was furious. All she could do was glare at Chase.

After they left the house, she looked at Chase in disgust. “I’m warning you, Collins. Don’t even think that we’ll really be getting married. I’m not into frogs like you. Just give it up.”

She thought Chase would argue against this, but to her surprise, he seemed nonchalant about it. “I’ll leave when the time comes.”

    The Desolate Ancient Sect united with several other sects and spent hundreds of years before finally capturing and eliminating that elder. However, this forbidden technique was preserved for certain reasons.Currently, Altair managed the library, allowing Vaughn free access to examine any sect scriptures at will. He often boasted to his lackeys about the numerous forbidden techniques he had mastered.The one he mentioned most was this forbidden art that could strip Supreme Bones, the Heaven Stealing Technique."Vaughn, are you talking about that..." Another fair-skinned lackey thought of this and said hesitantly.He was Roy Hunnam, a disciple from another great family, the Hunnam family.The Hunnams' power was slightly inferior to the Garths. They only had one Supreme Elder and three juniors here. Moreover, the Hunnams' Supreme Elder ranked at the bottom among the top ten experts.Therefore, Roy received limited resources and could only follow Vaughn around now. However, his si

    The finely dressed man's escape technique was swift. In moments, he had already traveled over three miles away.There happened to be a pond nearby. He looked at the water's surface and saw his bare, shiny scalp. It was extraordinarily comical.Furious, he punched the pond, stirring up 30-foot-high waves that soaked him completely. It just made him look even more pathetic.His consciousness sensed his companions approaching, so the finely dressed man quickly used an arcane technique to dry his body. He pulled out a set of clean clothes from his storage bag to change into and used a simple illusion to create the appearance of a full head of black hair, concealing his baldness."Vaughn, that brat was too detestable! When we get back, we must have our uncles seek justice!" A lackey's voice arrived before his person, consoling the finely dressed man.It turned out this finely dressed man was Vaughn Garth, the eldest son of the Garths in the Desolate Ancient Sect.He had three elders

    The man roared, and his entire body expanded dozens of times, like a giant from ancient times. His clothes were torn and ragged, revealing powerful muscles, and his hair became extremely thick, floating like seaweed.His entire aura became ferocious. This was completely opposite from his previous image as a spoiled disciple.So he did have some skill after all! Chase silently approved.However, this level of strength means nothing to him!Chase's hands rapidly formed seals. Acala's mark!Behind him appeared the massive phantom of Silver Moon Sky Wolf, Absolute Evil. The entire barrier was filled with overwhelming killing intent from this Greedy Wolf Star Lord.Almost tangible, the finely dressed man even felt stinging pain on his face. He was shocked that Chase was actually this strong!The finely dressed man was alarmed. With such intense killing intent, how many people would he have had to kill to achieve this? He could not help feeling somewhat regretful. He seemed to have be

    Seeing Chase's group looking defiant, the finely dressed man sneered, "You're overestimating yourselves. Let me show you what I'm capable of!"Then, he released a water mirror that was not much different from Chase's. Everyone could see a small world inside."Come on, let's fight in my barrier. I'll make you admit defeat!"Without waiting for Chase's agreement, he jumped straight in.Chase was about to follow when Quinn grabbed him. "This is his barrier. Who knows what traps are inside? You should be careful.""Don't worry. He's no match for me," Chase reassured her.Having recently studied the Desolate Ancient Scripture, Chase's comprehension of the Space Order of the Path had deepened further. From examining the barrier, he could tell this finely dressed man's cultivation was inferior to his own.The man's ability to release a barrier was purely because he used treasures on his person. It was not his own power at all.The finely dressed man had not expected that the aura-conc

    Now, merely taking one pill had produced this effect, allowing everyone to sense the medicine's potency.Moments later, Norm's aura surged again. Everyone felt like he might explode."Master, should we help him?"Walter emerged at this moment. He and Norm were both from the nether realm and communicated frequently, sharing a good relationship.Seeing Norm like this, Walter felt he should offer assistance. Otherwise, if something went wrong, he would feel guilty.Chase glanced at Norm and said, "It's fine. His condition is actually very good."As a miracle doctor, Chase was quite confident in his judgment. Norm, as a veteran expert, was very familiar with advancement matters.Though he appeared flushed and uncomfortable, his aura and vital energy were extremely stable, showing his exceptionally strong vital energy control. His vital energy just seemed to be expanding dramatically, and he needed time to adjust.Chase had plenty of experience with this. After all, his own core exc

    This could be considered fortunate timing for Helena's group. Thus, they consumed the fruits right then and there.Besides their comprehension of the Path advancing by leaps and bounds, the most significant change was to their appearance. Everyone had reverted to their younger selves.Of course, for someone like Eason, who was already young, the change was less dramatic. He now looked about 12 years old.Quinn and the other beauties looked at them with envy. However, this was fortune itself, not something that could be demanded.Additionally, aside from Barry and Eason, Helena, Norm, and Yara's strength had all increased substantially.They were now around stage-seven or eight martial god sovereign. Moreover, due to the Pseudo Path Fruit, their comprehension of the Path had deepened significantly. Their future cultivation would become increasingly swift."You've all consumed Pseudo Path Fruits, haven't you?" At this moment, Topher walked over with a smile.Helena's group had tho
