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.”

    "It really is you!" A deep, cold male voice came from the thick fog.At the same time, a mysterious force was released that completely blocked Chase's subsequent attacks. This binding ability surprised Chase."Nefarious Blast General!""Dyson!" Barry and Eason exclaimed simultaneously.A dark shadow emerged from the fog. "You two are actually together with this person!"Chase saw that the newcomer wore armor and a striking red cloak, with a black helmet on his head and a face mask that concealed his features. He carried an inherently cold aura.Dyson seemed to be on a different level from the other three! Chase frowned.Previously, he had been able to detect that Millie was a stage-nine major martial god. Yet with this one before him, Chase could not determine his cultivation level at all."How is Dyson so much stronger than you?" he transmitted to Barry."Originally, the Sky Demon Lord wanted to promote him to Sky Demon Kingdom Marshal, yet he said the marshal position would

    During the execution, the prisoner's agonizing screams would be the loudest at first, then gradually diminish and finally disappear completely. Ordinary people could not bear to hear it.These beast guards, however, had become completely numb to it. They had seen far too much of this."Come here!" a beast guard shouted at Walter.Walter felt somewhat dazed at this moment. He wondered how he had ended up in this wretched state when he had only come to participate in a holy banquet to compete for opportunities.He was extremely unwilling to accept this fate, yet there was no way out. The Great Wilderness Nation despised dragons and had studied dragon races very thoroughly.The runes pasted on Walter's body completely restricted his vital spirit flow. The daily food and drink provided also contained various power-dissolving powders that weakened his cultivation.Walter now deeply regretted his actions. Why had he saved those merchants? He had previously been an irredeemably monster

    "Yes, and let me tell you, I'm actually the Sky Demon King, the strongest ruler of the Sky Demons, you know?" Chase chuckled upon hearing that and casually made up nonsense, going along with Lisa's train of thought."How amazing! You actually have such a hidden identity, Chase!" Willow also clapped and joined in the fun.Helena knew they were joking and said nothing. However, Eason and Barry showed strange expressions on their faces after hearing that.Chase had not really believed Barry and Eason to begin with. He had basically dismissed everything they said about his background, so he did not explain it to Willow and the others.Now seeing that the three had fully awakened, he suggested, "Let's set out now. In a little while, we can reach Stone Orchid City, one of the ten great cities of the Great Wilderness Nation, and rest there.""Excellent!" Lisa and Willow cheered.Chase waved his hand and led everyone flying toward the nearby Stone Orchid City.…In the western part of

    After Eason finished speaking, he stood to the side with a respectful demeanor.Chase listened to Eason's explanation with mixed feelings of belief and doubt. After all, he was from the Sky Demon Kingdom and had been captured by Chase on human territory. It would not be surprising if he were sharing half-truths to save his life.As for what he said about Chase being the avatar or reincarnation of some powerful being, such things should be taken with a grain of salt.Chase looked over Eason, then at Barry. This fellow had seemed quite shocked earlier when he saw Chase summon the Silly Husky phantom. Had they encountered each other before?Chase turned to Barry and asked, "Do you know Silly Husky?""I wouldn't say I know him, just that I've seen him before." Barry considered his words carefully before answering."Seen him? When?" As soon as Chase spoke, he regretted it. He quickly realized that Barry and the other Sky Demons had been suppressed for who knows how many years. It woul

    "Another reason is that you always manage to save yourself from danger and grow stronger through adversity. From the perspective of luck, this is rather incomparable..." Barry's voice became much quieter at this point."If you both believe I'm such a formidable figure, why did you want to fight and kill me?" Chase looked at the two of them. He could not believe a single word they said. The more he thought about it, the more far-fetched it seemed."Because we're all avatars, and opposing you will help you recover your original memories and strength. Once you fully recover, you'll know we're just helping you. Then, glory and success will be within reach."But if you're not that person, then there's nothing to regret..." Barry showed an awkward expression as he spoke the last sentence."So, if I'm that person, it would mean prosperity and success. If I'm not, you would've just mistakenly killed an ant, is that right?" Chase said coldly."Those are your own words," Barry quickly add

    Chase thought to himself, 'Saying I'm like that pampered young man is one thing, but suggesting my seven sisters and women around me were like those fated beauties is going too far. After all, most of those beauties in such tales met tragic ends.'Was Barry deliberately fabricating lies to shatter his heart?"I was just making an analogy. Don't take it to heart." Barry quickly waved his hands.After all, judging from the poison-attribute elemental dragons that had been released, Chase indeed had the possibility of killing him, and without paying too much of a price.Barry was quite panicked at this moment, fearing that Chase would get angry and slap him to death."Back when Klondike invaded the Mortal Emperor Heaven, it was actually because it had offended someone in Ninth Heaven. Left with no choice, it had to come to Mortal Emperor Heaven to seek refuge."Barry's words suddenly went off on a tangent. Chase frowned upon hearing that. What was this all about?"Mortal Emperor Hea
