"Cough, cough... So it's Su Yanyu, right? I can clearly tell you, don't be disappointed, don't regret it. It's not wrong to admire me. As the saying goes, one shouldn't judge by appearances. I am indeed a bit handsome and a bit younger, but all the rumors about me are true. I can guarantee that!"
Mo Ming understood Liufeng's words, but he didn't care much. He still planned to win over the female fan's heart since she was quite attractive.
"Hehe, the boss is indeed the boss. You always manage to control the situation in awkward moments. I really admire you!" Poisonous Peak didn't find it surprising; Liufeng was like that, wearing a calm smile without any signs of shock.
However, Huang Feng and Su Yu, who had little contact with Mo Ming, felt a bit embarrassed. Perhaps Mo Ming's shameless attempt to retain the female fan had angered her disappointed heart. Su Yu's expression darkened as she said, "Are you really the Shura?"
"That's right, I am the Shura. How many people in this world dare to claim they are Shura?" Mo Ming raised an eyebrow with a confident smirk, not taking Su Yu's disdain seriously.
"Hmph, your demeanor is completely different from what I imagined. I'm so disappointed. I didn't expect the world-famous Shura to be just a boy, and a cheeky one at that," Su Yu shook her head in disappointment.
The more disappointed she was, the more it proved how high of a status Shura held in her mind. If it weren't significant, she wouldn't feel so let down by the discrepancy between reality and her imagination.
Thinking of this made Mo Ming even happier, and his smile widened as he said, "So what if I'm young? Can't a young man be a world-class King of Soldiers? My playful demeanor just shows I'm in a good mood. If you ever get to see my other side, you probably won't want to see me like this."
"Alright, putting your age aside, it's rumored that Shura is very steady in his actions, but I can't see any maturity or composure in you!" Su Yu said bluntly. She meant no offense; she was just expressing her true thoughts.
"Then you need to get to know me better. Hehe, I don't mind being watched quietly. Su Yu Sister, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me. I won't hide anything from you—like my measurements," Mo Ming said playfully.
"Boss, control yourself! Remember, you're a man with three women! Don't get carried away just because you see a Sister!" Liufeng said seriously.
"Hmph, I'm not interested in your measurements at all. Just fight me once; if you can beat me, I might look at you differently—at least you'll have one thing that matches the rumors," Su Yu said arrogantly with an icy expression.
Huang Feng smiled slightly from the side without interrupting; he wanted to see how Mo Ming would handle Su Yu, the ice goddess of the Dragon Group. It's known that Su Yu ranks third in the group and has a cold personality, rarely engaging in small talk with others—even he, as the leader, hardly exchanged more than a few words with her when there was nothing going on.
"Wow, Boss, you've been looked down upon by a beauty!" Poisonous Peak scoffed.
"Toxic Jar, I wonder if it's been too long since I last hit you; your mouth is getting a bit too much," Mo Ming shot a fierce glance at Poisonous Peak before turning to smile at Su Yu and saying, "Sorry, but I don't like hitting women, especially a beauty. You should know that women are meant to be cherished, not beaten."
"If you don't dare to accept my challenge, just say so directly instead of talking nonsense!" Su Yu's expression turned even colder as she sneered, "A dignified Asura actually dares not accept a woman's challenge? If this gets out, you'll surely be laughed at."
"I don't dare," Mo Ming blinked and stared straight at the shocked Su Yu.
Su Yu initially thought her words would provoke Mo Ming into accepting the challenge, but to her surprise, he genuinely admitted he didn't dare to accept it. This left her momentarily unsure of how to respond.
"Hahaha... Truly worthy of being an Asura! Not only do you have means to deal with enemies, but you also know how to handle women. I really admire you!" Huang Feng laughed heartily and clapped.
Su Yu shot a resentful glance at Huang Feng, who immediately stopped laughing.
"Su Yu, beautiful lady, I think someone as stunning as you should find a good man to marry. Always fighting and killing isn't good; if you accidentally ruin your looks, that wouldn't be great," Mo Ming said with a slight smile.
"Hmph, Asura, are you still a man?" Su Yu pointed angrily at Mo Ming.
"I am," Mo Ming nodded seriously before grinning and saying, "So what? Are you planning to marry me? But we have no emotional foundation, and I already have three wives. Adding another might not sit well with them."
"Bastard! Who said anything about that!" The icy goddess Su Yu was truly infuriated by Mo Ming. Looking at his playful expression, her face turned slightly red. "I don't care whether you accept or not; once you're better, I will definitely challenge you!"
"How about not? I'm quite busy and don't have time to mess around with you!" Mo Ming shook his head helplessly. "You like challenges, right? Fine, as long as you can defeat someone until they submit, I'll immediately compete with you!"
"Alright then! You said it! Who?" Su Yu replied without hesitation. She pointed at Liufeng and Poisonous Peak beside her and said, "These two?"
"Sister, I am actually a woman who understands cherishing beauty and grace, so I don't want to fight with you!" Poisonous Peak immediately stated.
"Hehe, I'm quite willing to fight with a woman, but I don't like fighting on the ground. How about we find another place to have a good fight? I promise to make you admire me!" Liufeng shamelessly said.
"Haha, it's not these two. This one is called Nüè, and he is also my brother. If you can make him admire you, I will immediately fight you, and I promise not to deceive you!" Mo Ming said with a calm smile.
With Nüè's personality, he would definitely not easily yield to Su Yu. Even if Su Yu really had the ability to defeat Nüè, Nüè would not be convinced. In that case, even if Su Yu won against Nüè hundreds of times, it would be useless.
"Alright, I hope you keep your word!" Su Yu said before turning and leaving the room.
"Ah, now I realize that having a crazy female fan is quite troublesome. Fortunately, I'm clever enough; otherwise, I might get driven crazy by her!" Mo Ming also sighed in relief.
"Boss, you've really put Nüè in a tough spot. From the looks of that girl, she definitely won't give up until she makes Nüè submit!" Poisonous Peak sincerely sympathized with Nüè. Although he wasn't clear about Su Yu's strength, her persistent personality meant that even if she couldn't defeat Nüè, she would still annoy him to death.
"Toxic Jar, you wouldn't understand this. The boss has deep thoughts; two ice-cold faces coming together might just spark something. Whether ice meets ice can create sparks is still unclear!" Liufeng laughed heartily.
"Shura, are you planning to let your people take away our Dragon Group's Ice Goddess?" Huang Feng shook his head with a bitter smile. "You just woke up; your dad has been calling me non-stop! I'm going to return his call now so he can calm down! You should rest well; this is the Dragon Group's secret base—absolutely safe!"
"Then I'll disturb Director Huang!" Mo Ming chuckled.
Huang Feng didn't say anything further and turned to leave the room. Now only Liufeng and Poisonous Peak remained. As soon as Huang Feng left, Liufeng couldn't help but voice his confusion: "Boss, you seem a bit different. With my keen intuition as an assassin, I couldn't sense Director Huang's arrival at all, yet you could. And when you just woke up, you immediately noticed me and Poisonous Peak standing behind you—why is that?"
"Actually, I don't know what's going on either. When I woke up, as long as someone was close by, I could clearly hear faint sounds. The reason I noticed you was that I heard your breathing and heartbeat from behind," Mo Ming also felt puzzled. After sleeping for more than ten days, his hearing had become so acute; he didn't understand why.
"Damn it, this isn't scientific!" Poisonous Peak shook his head with a wry smile. "You were in a coma for so many days, and your body's functions not only didn't deteriorate but actually became more developed?"
"Honestly, I have no idea what's going on!" Mo Ming rolled his eyes, feeling puzzled. For some reason, his hearing had become exceptionally acute; he could hear even the faintest sounds.
Liufeng rubbed his chin thoughtfully and frowned. "Boss, could it be related to the strange behavior you exhibited when you woke up?"
"Strange behavior?" Mo Ming shook his head uncertainly. "I’m not really sure what I did. I just felt like all my strength was drained away after I became conscious, leaving me utterly exhausted. The effect is much stronger than any time I've practiced the movements from an ancient book."
"Ancient book? What ancient book?" Liufeng asked, confused.
"It's a very old Wudang text. The content is quite mystical, and I'm not sure if it's real or not. However, I've heard from Seventh Master that this ancient book has been passed down through generations in the Wudang Sect. I believe there must be something extraordinary about it. Moreover, practicing from it has indeed improved my abilities significantly."
Mo Ming shared the general contents of the book with Liufeng and Poisonous Peak, including what it said about Spiritual Energy and the spirit-gathering meteorite beneath Ridge Castle, without holding anything back.
After finishing, Mo Ming wore a bitter smile. He felt like a cult preacher spreading anti-scientific ideas, yet his personal experiences were undeniable facts.
"Regardless of whether everything in the book is true or not, considering the benefits you've gained, it seems this ancient text does have some effect. If you continue practicing according to its teachings, you might actually achieve something," Liufeng surprisingly didn’t dismiss Mo Ming as crazy but instead made such a bold statement.
Even Poisonous Peak nodded in agreement. "Actually, I've heard from my master that there is indeed such a thing as Spiritual Energy in this world. It's very rare—so rare that it can be ignored—but if one knows how to gather it, even weak Spiritual Energy can be concentrated. Well, that's just what I've heard; as for whether it's true or not, I really can't say."
