I Am A Prodigy Chapter 637
Advertisement
To Ye Lingchen, the Su family was nothing.
In terms of territory, Miracle Island was way larger than the Su family's. Moreover, the island was a lot better.
In terms of power, Ye Lingchen could easily cultivate martial artists of Ali's level. Once he developed medicines that could be used to improve martial arts cultivation, then he could easily create more martial artists.
Moreover, the potential between them was incomparable.
Everyone in the Su family, except one person, was just a joke to him.
"Do you think your Su family is qualified to hire my services?" Ye Lingchen shook his head. His calm tone gave off an oppressiveness.
"F*ck!" one of the Su family members could not hold back any longer. "You should know your limits when acting tough! Our master is already offering you a dignified way out of this. Your bodyguard is obviously worn out. We can make your life a living hell!"
"Mr. Y, our family respects you deeply. Please watch your words!" Su Tianhong's expression darkened. That night, the Su family suffered too big a loss. He needed to find some ways to make up for it or his status would be jeopardized.
He gritted his teeth and continued, "If Mr. Y is willing to befriend our Su family, I can betroth my daughter, Su Qingyao, to you!"
"Dad!" Su Qingyao and Su Anxuan looked at their father in shock.
"What?!"
The other Su family members were similarly shocked as they looked at Su Tianhong.
"Our Su family's sincerity will definitely be satisfactory for Mr. Y," Su Tianhong offered sincerely.
Ye Lingchen remained silent.
He was not acting cool, but was truly speechless.
The Su family was just too full of themselves. To someone who did not know what was going on, they would probably think that Su Tianhong's daughters were fairies. Just what kind of reaction was that?

It was as though all of them suffered injustice. Su Qingyao bit her lip and wiped her tears while Su Anxuan gripped his fists tightly, showing an indignant expression. Su Qingxue covered her mouth with her eyes wide open.
'Heh, you guys are just too dramatic.'
"Wahaha, since when did the Su family turn into a bunch of cowards?"
A sarcastic laugh could be heard cutting through the darkness. Following that, they heard shuffling footsteps.
The originally deserted park was suddenly filled with movement and about a hundred people appeared out of nowhere. They surrounded the vicinity and looked at them mockingly.
"That's rare indeed." A deep, low chuckle could be heard. "Sigh, Old Pan and Old Sun actually died? No wonder the Su family changed its behavior."
"Why are you here?"
Su Tianhong's heart sank, yet he still managed to maintain a calm appearance.
"We're just coincidentally taking a walk in the park. What a coincidence running into this, don't you think?" an old man chuckled. "It's surprising how my mood immediately improved with this little walk."
"Master Su, you're being selfish." Someone took a jab at him. "Unfortunately, not only did you fail to reap any benefits, you even took a loss! Wahahaha…"
Even without introductions, Ye Lingchen could guess the identity of these people. They should be the great families of the Sichuan-Tibet region. Judging from their numbers, there should be some smaller families apart from the five great families that were there to enjoy the show.
"Mr. Y, our Chen family is quite a reputable family in the Sichuan-Tibet region. As long as Mr. Y is willing, I too, can betroth my youngest daughter to Mr. Y!"
Right then, another voice chimed in, "We all have daughters and granddaughters."
Su Tianhong's expression turned vicious, yet he had nothing to say.
He just lost two experts. The other families were no longer afraid of him. Following the arrival of other great families, he lost his monopoly to negotiate with Ye Lingchen. He did not expect both parties to suffer losses just to benefit others!

As for the other families, although they were making fun of the Su family, most of their attention was focused on Miracle Doctor Y. At the same time, looking at the huge Ali in his bloodied state, they were feeling both anxious and lucky.
They were anxious about Ali's strength, for he had first taken out Mo family's Black Tiger, and then the two elders from Su family even when ganged up on. Apart from the master of those great families, this bodyguard was definitely the strongest!
Fortunately for them, the Mo and Su family acted first. Now that Ali was heavily wounded, he was much less threatening.
"Mr. Y, now that everyone is here, why don't we take this chance to negotiate a deal?" someone suggested.
His tone left no room for negotiations. Under such circumstances, the only thing Ye Lingchen could do was to hand over the formula and agree to cooperate with the great families, or be torn apart!
Right then, a sound cut through the air. "Miracle Doctor Y belongs to my Su family!"
The next instant, an elder in traditional Chinese clothing appeared. He had no intention to waste words with anyone. Although he was walking, the speed was surprisingly fast. Under his foot, one could vaguely make out air currents swirling about, as though he was walking on air.
Very soon, he arrived in front of Ali.
Ali's eyes narrowed as he felt the oppressive pressure. He grunted and tensed up all the muscles in his body. His huge body then rushed right at the elder in Chinese clothing!
"Hehe."
The old man chuckled, then casually lifted his right leg.
He seemed to have lifted his leg without much strength, yet it shot out like a compressed spring, leaving only an afterimage after it landed on Ali's left shoulder!
Dong!
A sound similar to that of a temple bell could be heard.
Ali felt the world around him swirl as his body flew back about 10 meters, making multiple turns in the process before landing!
His left shoulder was dislocated and the other bones cracked. Fortunately, he was an endurance training master with extremely sturdy muscles and bones. If it were any regular martial artist, that kick would have misaligned the internal organs of one's body or even damaged them.
"That's amazing. Who's that?" The surrounding crowd was all wide-eyed, looking at the old man in astonishment.
Ali's strength was known to all of them. His endurance training Kungfu was almost at its peak and he had an almost unbreakable body. His explosive strength was even more terrifying—that strong body might even be sufficient to knock down a wall.
Nevertheless, the old man had merely made a simple kick and sent Ali—who was twice his size—flying. The power of that kick was truly shocking.
"He's from the Mo family, Huo Shan!" someone exclaimed in fear after taking a deep breath when they saw the seemingly harmless old man standing in their midst.
"Could he be the mysterious great elder of the Mo family?"
"Is he the Huo Shan who's considered an equal to the master of the family?"
"Half-step innate stage. He has definitely reached the half-step innate stage!"
The crowd stirred immediately. All their eyes quickly focused on the old man. Under the moonlight, the old man had a dashing appearance with chiseled features. His eyes would occasionally give off a sharp gleam. Around his body was a shimmering aura that was beyond this world…

The Tower Must Fall - Combat Gardener
If you're interested in a conceptual, ground-up rewrite leave a comment and tell me what you loved about it. I've got a pretty good idea of what everyone hated so there's no need for expounding on that. Gardener? A support class? This can't be! What was all my hard work for? Forget this world. Forget the System. Even if I'm a lowly support class, I'll take on the Tower and take them all down! Since the System appeared one hundred years ago, humanity has been divided into three: combat classes, intellectual classes, and support classes. Assigned at the moment of high school graduation, one's class determines their future. Rowan wanted the most out of life. A combat class, an intellectual class, either would be fine. When he is instead assigned a support class, Gardener, he notices the System is completely rigged against support classes. Refusing to give up on his dream of realizing his future by his own terms, Rowan challenges the Tower, the seat of the System and home of the Hero-King, in hopes of bringing the entire System to its knees. Season One complete. Permanent Hiatus, Pending Rewrite. Important notes: -LitRPG fantasy -Rowan is not perfect. He's got flaws, emotions, and personal issues to work through. If you want a perfect, overpowered MC who makes the right decision every time, this is NOT the work for you. -This story opens with a negative situation and an emotional growth arc for the main character. Please don't review until chapter 30 because the arc is not complete until that chapter. (Chapters are short, that's an average RR book's chapter 10) -No harem, no rape, no isekai, no romance -Questions? Please ask!
