Chapter 494: Chapter 8: The Monster’s Overwhelming! Chapter 494: Chapter 8: The Monster’s Overwhelming! “Brother, a new custor wants a Squirrel Fish, demanding authentic Sichuan cuisine,”
“Okay.”
Cha Xiaodao grabbed a live fish from the tank, scaled and gutted it, removed the bones, made so crisscross cuts, coated it in flour, and deep-fried the whole fish until the iron pot was bustling with golden bubbles of oil.
“Brother, they’ve changed their mind and no longer want it. They’ve switched to Shandong cuisine, Crispy Blast; they said they’ll still pay for both dishes.”
“Hey, you… alright then.”
Cha Xiaodao was slightly displeased but didn’t say anything else. He took out so pork tripe from a chilled pottery jar, removed the mbranes, and prepared the marinade with sugar, soy sauce, sesa oil, and starch. Just as he was about to heat up the oil, the waiter Zhou hurried into the kitchen with a look of difficulty on his face.
“Brother, they’ve changed their mind again, now they want Cantonese cuisine, a thick soup chicken pot with wings.”
Cha Xiaodao slamd the spatula down: “What the hell is wrong with this person? Looking for trouble, aren’t they?”
Zhou twisted a bit: “They say they’ll still pay the money, just that they don’t want the previous dish anymore.”
“It’s not about the money, tell them it’s not possible. Ask them to go elsewhere.”
“Okay.”
Zhou hung his head and walked out, but before long he ca back: “They won’t leave. But they’re not causing any trouble, just asking to see the chef.”
This annoyed Cha Xiaodao, but he was also amused. He untied his apron, took off his chef’s hat, and beckoned Zhou: “Co on, let have a look.”
At the table in the restaurant’s private room sat four or five n in various attire. They looked fit and their deanor wasn’t like that of ordinary diners. They were laughing and talking with each other, but suddenly as they heard footsteps, the noise at the table abruptly ceased, and all eyes turned to the door.
Cha Xiaodao was about to enter the room when he suddenly stopped. After a mont, he said to the waiter Zhou next to him, “You go check on the other tables. I’ll call you later.”
“Okay, brother. And if it really cos down to it, we should call the police, they’re very strict these days with the crackdowns.”
“No worries!” Cha Xiaodao chuckled: “I reckon they don’t want to trouble the police either. Off you go.”
Zhou then left sullenly, and Cha Xiaodao turned and entered the private room, closing the door behind him with a bang.
“What do you need for?”
Cha Xiaodao walked in, pulled out a chair, and sat down, getting straight to the point with his question.
“Can’t do the chicken pot with wings?”
The man speaking was wearing plain glasses, in a clean white shirt, in his thirties, with a gentle look.
Cha Xiaodao pointed at the clock with his hand, indicating he was tight on ti.
“Our boss wants to et you. He’s a Proxy Traveler from the Yan Zhao Club; you can call him Tiger Dragon.”
“If you’re looking to trouble Li Yan, he’s gone to the Red Mountain enclosure. I still have custors, can you avoid disrupting my business?”
Cha Xiaodao asked softly.
“Hmm, you sure sell out your friend quickly, but he won’t get away! However, you still have to co with us,” the man with the glasses sneered, “Brother, play it cool and co with us. Don’t make it hard for us.”
Cha Xiaodao sat up straight and sighed: “You’ve got so nerve, causing such a blatant ruckus. Aren’t you afraid of Zhao Jianzhong stirring up trouble?”
The man with the glasses gave a chilling smile: “Won’t it be fine as long as he doesn’t find out?”
As soon as he finished speaking, a somber and boundless aura burst forth from behind him. The entire room suddenly appeared decayed and aged. Green moss spread on the walls, and spider webs clustered in the corners. Large patches of black blood stains covered the tablecloth, a horrifying sight.

Cha Xiaodao was sowhat surprised; he rembered his first encounter with Li Yan during the “Yan Capital Boiling Night,” which had effects similar to the opponent’s abilities.
His eyes glowed with varying depths of red light. The man with glasses shifted his chair back: “I know you’re evaluated as a Nine Luminaries Peak and are one of the outstanding ones at that. Ordinary Eight Extres aren’t your match, but all five of us here are Eight Extres Walkers. My advice for you is to give up resistance. It’s better not to suffer in vain.”
Colorful and terrify-ingly invisible ghosts started to erge from under the table. The unwelco guests sitting in front of him all emanated a chilling, dreadful aura, resonating with each other. Clearly, these Eight Extres Walkers did not co together by chance; their skills, enhanced artifacts, and even their inheritances were clearly from the sa origin, all with sinister and eerie abilities.
“I’m saying, I really still have guests to attend to…”
Cha Xiaodao hadn’t finished speaking when hundreds of strange shadows surged up, engulfing her within them.
But imdiately, a golden light broke through the layers of ghostly shadows, even lifting a corner of the Fierce Ghost Veil.
The man with glasses turned pale, knowing that unless he fainted from shock or succumbed to physical exhaustion, the Fierce Ghost Veil should never be broken by external forces.
But aside from that, there was another possibility, which was that it had encountered an even more powerful Illusion Realm!
[Illusion Realm: Millennia Chronicle!]
————————————————
Bang!
A man with a white third-eye pattern on his tank top rushed in, hurriedly reporting to Gu Yue, “Suspicious individuals have been discovered outside the arena; initially thought to be poachers, later identified as a group of Yan Fu Walkers—three from the Eight Extres Peak, five ordinary Eight Extres. They seem to have followed Li Yan here and we’ve detained them. They claim to be from Tiger Dragon’s faction. Gu, how should we deal with them?”
Gu Yue’s eyes were glued to the screen, her grip on the cola can crumpling it, completely ignoring the man who barged in, her face cold as a slab of ice.
“Cough, cough!”
Giving a aningful look, the man lowered his head and turned to walk out.
“Phew!”
The girl in camouflage rubbed her face and stole glances at the screens that covered the wall through her fingers. The scenes displayed were tragic, Third Eye Global had been completely defeated! She didn’t know whether to rejoice at her own huge profit or to share in the hate and grind her teeth on behalf of her boss.
“He’s truly a monster…”
On the large screen, only Li Yan remained standing. His Jumu Great Sword, wrapped in flas like black Disaster Water, glinted ominously, his eyes piercing through the lens, staring straight at Gu Yue.
The wings of Godess Gu Huo swept by.
In the high-definition panels, close-up shots showed mbers of “Third Eye Global,” the Eight Extres Walkers who had attempted to encircle Li Yan, each one unconscious. The few who could barely stand straight couldn’t even stay on their feet, effectively losing their mobility.
Gu Yue’s gaze drifted to the white digital clock at the upper right corner of the large screen.
At 7:42:05 PM, the off-road vehicle exploded; imdiately afterward, the target leaped out of the fire, knocking unconscious twice-enriched operatives with legacy powers known as “Bixi,” number fifteen in the reserves, Zhao Aiguo.
At exactly 7:43 PM, the encirclent started. The target suddenly released an indescribable aura of murderous intent, on a par with a Seven Palaces level Proxy Traveler. Lang Qiyang, Lin Ren, and four reserve operatives, in a split second’s mistake, failed to activate their “Legacy Stances” and were struck at close quarters in the face by the target, rendering them unconscious on the spot.
Among the four unconscious Eight Extres Peak Walkers, number seven in the reserves, Lin Ren had the strongest combat ability. His legacy was “Bixi,” having undergone four secret enhancents, and he possessed a legendary weapon, the Babao Liuli Umbrella.
At 7:45 PM, nine reserves in their “Legacy Stances” engaged in fierce combat with the target for approximately two minutes.
Of these nine reserves, the strongest in combat was number four, Lu Zilang, a Sino-Thai mixed blood with the nickna “Ghost of Heaven.” Before entering Yan Fu, he won the gold belt at the Rubin Muay Thai Gym, mastering unard combat up to 89%!
His legacy was “Star of Heavenly Wounds,” with seven secret enhancents.
Apart from his legacy, he also had a personal enhancent ability that could grow up to the Eight Extres Peak: Qimu Shengang, with extrely impressive defensive power, able to completely withstand even so killer moves in “Legacy Stance.”
At 7:45:20 PM, the battle ended. At the cost of a through-and-through wound on his back, the target incapacitated all the reserves, including Lu Zilang. Five were seriously injured, two suffering severe damage to vital internal organs, requiring imdiate ergency treatnt.
In the brief but intense combat, the target demonstrated at least 90% mastery of close-quarters combat.
A single legendary weapon.
An item of suspected legendary destructive power.
A Pig Dragon stronger than an ordinary Eight Extres Walker.
Two types of Seven Palaces grade growth abilities: one confird to be a winter Genetic Potion of at least fourth-order, the other related to seawater.
Besides, the opponent’s Gu Huo Bird and Wu Zhiqi legacies had each undergone more than fifty secret enhancents! Not five, but fifty!
Of which, at least thirty types of secret enhancents have never been recorded by “Third Eye Global”!
“He’s indeed a monster,” Gu Yue finally spoke.
With such strength, completing trials in Yan Fu with difficulty grade A or lower and becoming a Proxy Traveler would be effortless for him.
She thought to herself,
“But monsters aren’t limited to just him.”
