[Have you ever tried for Oscar, host?]
'No.' Wei Jun replied.
[You should]
'The best choice to instill fear is always brutal violence,' Wei Jun replied as he and Lin Ruan, along with many other disciples made their way down the mountain.
Everyone kept their eyes on Wei Jun but no one said a word. The opposite faction wasn't included in this group; it was just Sun Ruan's faction group. Still, the fear was properly ingrained into everyone.
Even Wei Jun's allies' disciples were afraid of Wei Jun after that display of power. Had it been so lower-level student, it would have made sense. It wasn't.
It was one of the stronger students. And the fact that Wei Jun defeated that opponent in three moves without using Qi armant was more than enough for everyone to know of his potential.
But what made them hesitant was his brutality. The way he had crippled that disciple wasn't enough. He even stomped on his face to disfigure it badly to the point it couldn't be recognized.
And then, he just laughed.
Like a lunatic.
But it was all nothing but an act. Wei Jun wasn't the type to lose himself in emotions, let alone for no reason. He never enjoyed killing. He only enjoyed conquering.
When it ca to killing, he always did it because he had to. Wei Jun never aninglessly killed anyone even if they annoyed him. He was always willing to forgive them to an extent.
[I think you should begin on the new protagonist, host]
Shao Chen, the new protagonist of the new novel that had begun. Wei Jun didn't know anything about the story of the protagonist but he did know that he had ten levels to unlock the first volu of the novel. The problem was that the novel had five volus so it was a little longer.
Also, the level-up condition wasn't a relationship this ti but influence.
'Why influence? It didn't work for Run Long.' Wei Jun asked.
[Because Shao Chen is already plenty strong]
[It isn't about him becoming stronger]
[It's about him becoming the most influential person thanks to his power]
[He doesn't lack power for his goal]
[He lacks influence]
[After all, his goal couldn't be achieved unless he was willing to beco an enemy of the empire]
'What is his goal?' Wei Jun asked.
[For that, you should have read the novels in your original life]
'Fu*k off.' Wei Jun replied before he used ten levels to unlock the first volu.
'Fu*k.' He said once again once he skimd through the first volu of the novel which consisted of fifty chapters.
Why was he annoyed?
Well, that was because, in those fifty chapters, all Shao Chen did was beat up so small-ti gangs that earned him the appreciation of the public.
But…
'How the hell does it take fifteen chapters to take down five people?' Wei Jun thought, annoyed by the fact that the dialogues between the fighters and the one fighting were too much.
One person flaunts his power for one chapter, then gets beaten up for one chapter, then the praises co for one chapter straight and the beaten up person calls for another person, and then the cycle repeats.
Fifteen chapters wasted for five people, pointless admiration, pointless praise, pointless bragging, and pointless fights because the people being defeated were nothing more than simple mortal humans who had so martial arts training.
Wei Jun, who had wiped organizations in a night was especially annoyed by that fact. What was he supposed to do? There was no major event in that volu. No heroine was revealed and no other information about what Shao Chen's motive was.
All he did was beat up so small-ti gangs to help the people and then wait for his comrades to co from abroad.
'This is giving a headache…' Wei Jun said. The unlock requirent of the next volu was also ten chapters and Wei Jun was stuck at thirty-six. He needed four more to level up to that point.
'No use worrying about it. I guess I will have to call my dear mayor.' Wei Jun thought before he approached Lin Ruan.
"I need so resources," Wei Jun said.
"What is it?" Lin Ruan asked since Wei Jun had only ever asked for money, once, and even that was black.
"I need so people to keep an eye on soone." Wei Jun said.
"Who?" Lin Ruan curiously asked. Wei Jun remained silent and just kept looking at her. That was all the answer she needed to know he wasn't so willing to answer. "I will send soone to your apartnt, tomorrow."
****************
Wei Jun was sitting in his office when he received a phone call from Li Wei, "Boss, I have found them all."
Wei Jun smiled and simply replied, "Good. Send them all to and I will take care of them myself."
Money. A problem Wei Jun faced a lot at the current mont.
Increasing just one stat cost him millions of yuans. Luckily, he was raking in money thanks to his new movie which was very popular. In just a few days, the sales had exceeded 500 million and there was no sign of that progress slowing down.
Still, Wei Jun had invested all that money in several businesses and in the making of his new serial in which he would be the protagonist along with Xia Lu.
In other words, he was short on money again. Besides, using that money in the shop would an it disappearing, which would also an a dubious paper trail. Where did the money go? A simple question that could cost him a lot. He could be easily frad to be supplying funds to terrorists or so other organizations.
The only way to use that money was through paper companies but unfortunately, that would take so ti.
So, Wei Jun decided to make money in another way. Taking it from those who weren't using it at the mont. There were many families in the city and many organizations from gangs to politicians that had black money in their possession.
Wei Jun had obtained information about them from the prison inmates a few days ago and handed over the information to Li Wei who was smart enough to find out the locations of the banks, warehouses, and several legal facilities holding that money in just a few days.
Now all that was left was to take it and for that, he needed to step in himself.
With that settled, Wei Jun decided on his next move. He called Lao Chen and he appeared in under a minute.
Lao Chen was Wei Jun's personal secretary these days. Although Lao Chen's loyalty lies elsewhere, Wei Jun doesn't care. He only gave Lao Chen work that wouldn't give any important information about him. That and the fact that Lao Chen could do the work of ten people alone just like Li Wei.
"Yes, young master?" Lao Chen asked.
Wei Jun handed him a file and said, "Create these companies. And register them. make sure to cover every legal aspect and leave nothing behind."
Lao Chen opened the file and checked the business list. There were so bars, so cafes, so clubs, and so sports centers for the rich to play. The total revenue given for that was 500 million for now.
It was nowhere near enough but the projects could be initiated with that. All of this was normal and didn't ask for much attention from Lao Chen.
What did get his attention was the ntion of so companies that did absolutely nothing. So delivery companies, so companies that handled online work.
It was a lucrative business but the money being used in them was enormous. It only ant one thing. They were all paper companies.
"Young master---" Lao Chen was about to speak when Wei Jun said, "Cook books. I need those businesses to be taking a lot of my money."
Lao Chen looked at Wei Jun for a few monts before he bowed and left the room. Wei Jun was sure he was going to report this to Sun Ruan but he wasn't worried.
After all, no one, even Sun Ruan, couldn't possibly imagine that Wei Jun had a shop where he could buy treasures to increase his power.
At most, he would be mistaken as making hidden funds or converting money to black money for the black market. It was a usual move often used in the world of business.
Wei Jun leaned back and began to formulate his plans. He had many things to do. Too many actually. He was lucky to have Li Wei and Lao Chen but there were still too many things for him to do.
However, his main focus was his level. He felt the difference in strength between himself and the disciples last night. Had Wei Jun not used the discharge skill, he wouldn't have been able to take him down so easily even with 'Qi armant' and 'Qi empowernt' skills.
Just as he was about to get up, his phone rang. He checked the number to be unknown. He picked up the phone and heard from the other side, "Is this Mister Wei Jun Ruan?"
"Yes." Wei Jun replied.
"I am Mark Wilson. I believe Lady Lin told you about ." Wei Jun heard the man who spoke fluent Chinese on the other side. His na wasn't Chinese which was strange but Wei Jun didn't focus on that. He said, "Let us et for dinner."
