"Sir, it seems a bit unreasonable of you to ask such a question."
Lin Fan's face darkened, and he looked at Xiao Chen with some anger, saying that he was the master of the Underworld God Palace, an underground force, and even if he was a tiger fallen into the plains, he would never become someone else's subordinate.
"You don't want to?"
Xiao Chen frowned slightly, and a terrifying pressure erupted, directly suppressing Lin Fan to the ground. Feeling this pressure, Lin Fan's face was full of disbelief. This person was very strong!
"Senior, please stop your supernatural powers. I agree!"
Lin Fan quickly begged for mercy. As soon as Xiao Chen unleashed his aura, he realized that he and Xiao Chen were definitely not on the same level.
You should know that you are a martial arts master, but even so you can't make people kneel down with your aura like Xiao Chen. This shows that Xiao Chen's strength is absolutely terrifying.
After withdrawing his oppressive aura, Lin Fan scrambled to his feet, looking at Xiao Chen with a resentful expression. Now that he had become Xiao Chen's disciple, he could only hope to have a chance to take revenge in the future.
"Alright, tell me about your background."
Although Xiao Chen could find out Lin Fan's background by searching his soul, that would inevitably cause some damage to Lin Fan's brain. What Xiao Chen wanted was a healthy subordinate, not a fool.
From Lin Fan's words, Xiao Chen also learned about the other party's background. He was originally the young master of the Lin family in the capital. However, when he was young, there was a turmoil in the family. Some of his family members died, and others fled. Lin Fan was just lucky enough to escape.
Even so, he was still seriously injured and managed to jump into the river with all his might, after which he lost consciousness. When Lin Fan woke up, he met a reclusive master who then passed on all his skills to him.
Relying on the skills he learned from a reclusive master, Lin Fan founded a terrifying organization called the Temple of the Underworld overseas. This time, due to some special mission, Lin Fan brought a few trusted confidants back to China.
Unexpectedly, they encountered a torrential rain on their first day back, followed by the apocalypse. Lin Fan and several trusted confidants had no choice but to stay in the hotel.
Later, one of his trusted confidants awakened a powerful supernatural ability and turned against Lin Fan, nearly killing him. Only with the desperate efforts of his remaining confidants did Lin Fan escape. However, without Xiao Chen, he would probably be dead by now.
"Oh, that's a very interesting scene."
Xiao Chen had read many similar plots in novels, but he never expected to encounter them himself.
"hey-hey."
Lin Fan could only stand there awkwardly grinning, while Xiao Chen sensed the state of Lin Fan's body. As expected of a martial arts master, Xiao Chen could sense that Lin Fan's strength was roughly equivalent to that of a cultivator at the perfect body refinement level, but he still couldn't defeat a superhuman.
Xiao Chen learned from Lin Fan that his confidant who betrayed him was named Li Gui, who by chance awakened lightning-based superpowers, which was why Lin Fan was in such a sorry state.
"Don't worry, once you become my subordinate, you're just a mere superhuman. I'll grant you power so you can take care of him."
Xiao Chen shook his head and said that he would find a way to transfer the power of the superpower crystal core into Lin Fan's body. At that time, with the power of a martial arts master and superpower, Li Gui would probably not be a match for Lin Fan.
"Thank you, Lord."
Lin Fan's eyes lit up upon hearing this. After all, Xiao Chen could suppress him with ease, so he must have a lot of things at his disposal. If he were given even a little bit, he could probably use it all.
"However, if we want to match Li Gui, ordinary superpowers probably won't be enough, so let's wait and see."
Xiao Chen thought for a moment and said, "Li Gui's superpower is lightning. Xiao Chen currently has iron transformation, wind-type, invisibility, and three beast transformation superpowers. I estimate he is no match for Li Gui."
"Let's talk about revenge another time. Just surviving is already a great thing."
Lin Fan didn't insist too much; being alive meant endless possibilities. Just then, Xiao Chen sensed something and opened the door.
"Let's go eat first."
Considering that Lin Fan needed to eat, Xiao Chen thought for a moment and decided to serve him a meal. Lin Fan couldn't suppress his excitement when he smelled the delicious aroma in the air, since he had rarely eaten hot food since the apocalypse began.
Although Lin Fan had endured far more hardship than this when he founded the Temple of the Underworld, who would care if he could eat something hot?
Seeing Lin Fan wolfing down his food, Xiao Chen couldn't help but shake his head. He saw his own reflection in Lin Fan, which was why he felt pity for him.
Meanwhile, in the capital city.
"Damn it, all five of them are dead. Who did it? Old An?"
After the five superhumans died, Gao Qiqiang received the news immediately. He thought to himself with a gloomy face, but he dared not determine which one it was from among his many enemies.
They could only swallow their anger and wait until they became stronger in the future.
At the same time, Xiao Chen and his group also began to cultivate continuously. Xiao Chen could become stronger by absorbing spirit stones, while Lin Yichen and Qin Bajiao absorbed the power in the crystal cores, and Lin Fan could only become stronger by constantly training.
Even when faced with a dozen snow demons swarming at him, Lin Fan, a martial arts master, was not afraid at all, and fought them off in the icy wilderness.
The crystal core obtained from the Snow Demon was absorbed by Lin Yichen and Qin Bajiao, which gradually formed a virtuous cycle, and Xiao Chen's strength slowly increased over time.
Two months later.
"roar!"
Dozens of snow demons charged toward a figure radiating heat in the snow, only to have their heads smashed by a single punch from that figure—it was Lin Fan.
Inside the mansion, the two women chose a room and began to absorb crystal cores continuously. After two months of absorption, they finally absorbed all the hundreds of crystal cores, and their strength was naturally much stronger than before.
If they were to encounter those five superhumans, they would be confident enough to wipe them all out even without Xiao Chen's intervention.
Just as they were all basking in their own glory, a rather significant tremor came from inside the villa.
"What's going on?"
After annihilating the last snow demon with a single punch, Lin Fan felt the ground tremble and said with some surprise. He then rushed back to the mansion, and when he returned, he saw Xiao Chen walking out of the room.
The aura emanating from him became even more terrifying; clearly, the earlier commotion was caused by Xiao Chen's breakthrough.
"Phew, I finally broke through."
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen smiled happily. The breakthrough time was even earlier than he expected. He actually broke through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment in just two months.
His strength has increased more than tenfold, and the range of his divine sense has expanded to a radius of a hundred meters. If he breaks through to the Golden Core stage, and with the help of the Divine Soul Tempering Method, Xiao Chen's divine sense range will probably reach a terrifying range of a thousand meters.
"Would you like to go up and take a look?"
Just then, Xiao Chen looked at the three of them and said.
Lin Fan and the others: Huh?
