Chapter 10

In the Zhao family villa, Zhao Beisheng, the chairman of the Donghai Group and father of Zhao Ping, had a dark look on his face. He couldn't help but ask Zhao Dongsheng, "Big Brother, are we just going to let this go? Zhao Ping is my only son, your only nephew. Even if he is no good, he is still the blood of the Zhao family. Now that Zhao Ping is crippled, are you going to let the Zhao family's lineage be cut off?"

Zhao Beisheng was very agitated. Although his son Zhao Ping's life was no longer in danger, his vital organ was damaged. He had only one son, so how could he not be angry?

Zhao Dongsheng frowned and said, "I told you to discipline Zhao Ping, but you didn't listen to me. Now what? You've kicked a hard stone, haven't you? Let me tell you the truth, General Long is an important figure in the military, and his strength is even greater than mine. If he is determined to protect the Lin family, I really can't do anything to the Lin family."

"Big Brother, is there really no way out?"

"Of course there is a way. Although I can't take action, is your Donghai Group just for show? I have a non-human agreement and can't act against ordinary people at will. If it were just an ordinary person, I could kill them with a wave of my hand, and no one would stand up for them. But the Lin family has military backing, which makes things complicated. However, your Donghai Group can take full action, mobilize all kinds of social resources, and counter the Lin Group."

"Big Brother, the Lin Group is quite large. I'm afraid it will be difficult for just my Donghai Group."

"Hmph, with me here, do you still fear a mere Lin Group? Don't worry, I will contact some friends, and they will assist you in business. Remember, you must act openly and fairly, not use underhanded tactics, and not cause trouble for the Lin family. If you can defeat the Lin Group in business, without the Lin Group, the Lin family will be at your mercy. As for Zhao Ping's injuries, I will think of a way in the outer domain. If I can obtain the blood of the Heavenly Snake Beast and give it to Zhao Ping, his injuries will heal, and the Zhao family's lineage will not be cut off."

"Really? Big Brother, rest assured, I will use the Donghai Group to fully counter the Lin Group!"

"Alright, I am actually on a mission. Now that this matter is settled, I need to return immediately. In the future, you must discipline Zhao Ping. Now it's just General Long, but if he gets involved with someone he shouldn't, even I can't save him."

"Yes, yes, I will discipline Zhao Ping, Big Brother, rest assured."

After saying this, Zhao Dongsheng left the Zhao family villa, but a cold look flashed in Zhao Beisheng's eyes.

...

The matter with the Zhao family was not over. Lin Feng also heard some rumors. The Zhao family's Donghai Group, along with other groups, began to pressure the Lin Group.

In recent days, he almost never saw his brother or father. Although the Lin Group was powerful, it was under great pressure from the full-scale attack of the Donghai Group. Lin Feng couldn't help much with this.

The only thing he could do was to practice martial arts, to practice martial arts intensely! This time, he personally witnessed the strength of Zhao Dongsheng and General Long, especially Zhao Dongsheng, who, by virtue of his non-human strength, almost brought the Lin family to its knees.

No matter how large a commercial empire, no matter how prosperous a family, it seemed that none could withstand a non-human strong.

After several days of selection, Lin Feng chose the second gene to fuse, the gene of the unicorn.

The unicorn is a true fierce beast. Even with the power of the Lin family, it took some effort to obtain a piece of unicorn flesh. His father did not ask what Lin Feng needed it for, but supported him unconditionally, which deeply moved Lin Feng.

Lin Feng chose the unicorn for a reason. Although it is not the most powerful among fierce beasts, it is known for its great strength and is a very fierce beast.

Currently, Lin Feng excels in strength, so he needs to maximize his advantage and further enhance his strength.

The fusion of the unicorn gene went smoothly. Lin Feng spent several days using advanced nutrient solutions to fully develop the unicorn gene, and his physical attributes were comprehensively improved.

Physical Condition: 19.56

Strength: 18.85

Agility: 11.34

Skills: Basic Fist Technique (Proficient, continuous practice can reach Mastery), Wild Ox Power (Mastery, comprehended the true meaning of the wild ox)

Gene Fusion: Wild Ox Gene (Fusion Degree 100%, fully fused), Unicorn Gene (Fusion Degree 100%, fully fused)

Gene Capacity: 16%

Lin Feng's physical condition and strength have made significant progress, and the gene capacity seems to have consumed 10%. The gene capacity has now reached 16%. If he continues to fuse other more powerful genes, the gene capacity will soon reach its limit.

As for Lin Feng's current punching strength, it has reached 2000 kilograms, which is two tons. This is just pure strength. If he uses the Wild Ox Power, the strength will be even more terrifying. Lin Feng tested it, and his strongest attack can reach 3200 kilograms, about three tons of force.

Actually, Lin Feng also noticed some problems. When he used the Wild Ox Power, it seemed that he couldn't control his strength as easily as before. Lin Feng speculated that this might be because there were differences between the Wild Ox Gene and the Unicorn Gene. Lin Feng comprehended the true meaning of the wild ox but did not practice martial arts related to the unicorn, which might affect his control over his strength.

This is a problem. Now, he has only fused two genes. What will happen when he fuses three, four, or even more genes in the future?

This problem, Lin Feng currently cannot solve, but he knows it is related to martial arts. Coordinating the strength of the whole body and maximizing its potential is the role of martial arts. However, the martial arts he can find are very limited, and there are no suitable martial arts that can fully utilize his advantages.

Some advanced martial arts are only held by the government, military, noble families, high-level martial artists, sects, or academies. Even if the Lin Group is wealthy, it cannot purchase advanced martial arts.

During this period, Lin Feng carefully considered the path he would take in the future.

"Brother, there's something I need to tell you."

Tomorrow was the weekend, and Lin Qian's expression was somewhat unnatural, as if she wanted to say something but held back.

"Lin Qian, what is it? Just say it."

Lin Qian hesitated, but finally spoke, "Brother, Qu Chen is leaving Zhonghai University."

"Leaving Zhonghai University? Why?"

Lin Feng's body stiffened, and his tone became urgent.

"Brother, actually, Qu Chen came to Zhonghai University to use the Wudao Club platform to obtain martial arts internal training methods and become a professional martial artist. Her goal is to enter the Polar Academy. With Qu Chen's talent, she could have entered the Polar Academy half a year ago, but she stayed because she was waiting."

"Waiting for what?"

"Waiting for an answer from you."

Lin Feng fell silent. Qu Chen was a good girl, and he knew it. It was impossible for him to be unaffected after so long, but his strange illness made him afraid to face everything.

"So, Qu Chen is going to drop out and enter the Polar Academy?"

"Yes, Qu Chen wants to see you before she leaves, tonight, at the same Starlight Cafe as last time."

Lin Feng remained silent for a long time, but did not respond.

"Brother, Qu Chen has waited for you for so long. Even if you don't like her, you should at least give her a blessing."

Lin Feng took a deep breath and immediately pushed open the door and walked out of the villa.

...

At the Starlight Cafe, with its melodious music and beautiful environment, couples were whispering sweet nothings to each other.

Lin Feng walked in and immediately saw the familiar figure by the window.

Qu Chen looked beautiful today, wearing a long white dress that accentuated her tall figure. Her years of martial arts practice gave her an outstanding aura, and even the bright lights of the cafe could not overshadow her charm.

Lin Feng sat across from Qu Chen, who smiled slightly and said, "I haven't thanked you for saving me that day."

"Don't mention it. You actually helped me a lot in the Wudao Club."

The two didn't talk much. Qu Chen's bright eyes had a hint of sadness, but she didn't show it.

"By the way, I haven't congratulated you on passing the Polar Academy's examination."

This was indeed something to be congratulated. The Polar Academy is one of the three top martial arts academies in the world. Those who graduate from it are all high-level professional martial artists, at the very least, they can become police chiefs.

But its requirements are also very high. New students must become professional martial artists before the age of 20, a limit that has stopped many. Qu Chen is only 19 years old and is already a fourth-rank professional martial artist, so she naturally meets the Polar Academy's admission standards.

"Yes, I should have gone half a year ago, but..."

She paused, and her eyes gradually brightened. She stared at Lin Feng and asked, "Lin Feng, actually, Lin Qian has already told me about your illness. I'm not asking anything today, just one question: Have you ever liked me?"

Lin Feng opened his mouth, and Qu Chen's enthusiastic, bold, sincere, and expectant eyes made him feel at a loss.

After a long time, Lin Feng closed his eyes and said, "Yes."

Qu Chen smiled. Her smile was so beautiful, so innocent, that even the most dazzling pearl could not compare to Qu Chen's smile at that moment.

"Close your eyes."

Qu Chen said.

Lin Feng gradually closed his eyes, and then a soft touch came to his lips.

Time seemed to stop. When Lin Feng opened his eyes, Qu Chen had already left the cafe, leaving behind a beautiful silhouette.

Lin Feng clenched his fists, and a voice seemed to be calling him in his heart, but he ultimately stayed in his seat and did not get up to chase Qu Chen.

"See you again if we have the chance."

Lin Feng murmured softly. He knew he had missed a relationship, missed a good girl.

See you again, if I don't die in three years...
