Chapter 17: The Match

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Jiang Yu naturally knew what attracted the old Daoist priest to this place.

The only thing he needed to find in his villa was naturally spiritual energy.

However, the old Daoist priest’s identity was unknown, and he did not know where he came from. Naturally, he could not reveal too much information.

Moreover, his current cultivation had not reached a very powerful level. It was best not to let everyone know.

“Spiritual energy, of course!” The old Daoist priest said matter-of-factly. He even looked at Jiang Yu inexplicably with a look that said, ‘How come you don’t even know this?’

Then, the old Daoist priest felt something was amiss.

It doesn’t seem like this kid’s cultivation was low. How could he not know about spiritual energy? Or was it not very obvious?

No! Forget that! The most important thing now was to find the main source of that spiritual energy!

He clearly felt that the spiritual energy in this room was the densest. How could he not feel anything the moment he entered?

“What is spiritual energy?” Jiang Yu continued to play dumb, forcing the Daoist priest to become even more impatient. “Please don’t ask me right now!”

Could it be that he was really a fool?

The Daoist priest thought for a moment and asked, “What else is there in this room other than the things that are placed now?”

Perhaps the thing with the spiritual aura had been taken away.

Jiang Yu was still confused. “Nothing. I just soaked in the hot spring here yesterday. I didn’t touch anything, nor did I bring anything over.”

“Moreover, this is just an ordinary hot spring. How can it have the magical spiritual energy you mentioned?”

The old Daoist priest widened his eyes in disbelief. “How is that possible?!”

The sense that he was most proud of was wrong?

Jiang Yu still looked like he didn’t understand anything. He waved his hand and said, “Old man, wake up. There’s nothing here. If you still think that you’re not wrong, then… My family’s neurology department is good. If you would like to go, I can give you a 20% discount.”

The system couldn’t help but laugh.

Its host’s words were very vicious. The old Daoist priest couldn’t do anything. Did he have to say such vicious words?

“You…”

The old Daoist priest was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

This brat’s cultivation is so high, yet he doesn’t know anything. He doesn’t know cultivation! He’s simply a waste!

After his anger subsided, the old Daoist priest quickly calmed down.

No, there must be something wrong with this villa. He had finally entered, so he could not leave so easily.

“What do you think? Did you find what you need? Maybe I don’t have what you’re looking for.” Jiang Yu pretended to be dumb again. “Please return home. I still want to enjoy the hot spring.”

The old Daoist priest didn’t plan to leave.

“Young man, can you let me stay?” He asked after some thought. “I can do anything you asked me to do.”

He paused for a moment before continuing, “Or, if there’s anything you need my help with, I can do it as long as you let me stay.”

As long as he stayed here, he would definitely find what he needed.

However, Jiang Yu shook his head, “I do not need that. I already have enough bodyguards and servants. They can help me with everything. I don’t need an outsider like you. Sir, you’re already so old. Hurry up and go home to retire.”

The old Daoist priest felt that this kid really had the talent to anger people. Whatever he says can ignite his rage.

“Young man, be more respectful. I’m an old man and I can’t take anger lightly.”

The old Daoist priest gritted his teeth and continued to think of a way to stay.

“I have plenty of money at home. I can do whatever I want.” Jiang Yu snorted coldly and revealed a disdainful expression.

However, this trick was useless against the old Daoist priest. He thought for a long time and suddenly thought of a way.

This young man’s cultivation was not low, but it might not be comparable to his. If he could defeat him, he might be able to stay.

Thinking of this, the old Daoist priest hurriedly said, “Young man! Do you dare to fight against me? As long as I win, you have to let me stay. I can still teach you my techniques. If I lose, I’ll leave this place. How about it?”

[Oh.] The system seemed to have heard something funny and burst out laughing, causing Jiang Yu’s head to hurt.

This electronic laughter was really easy to give people a headache.

‘Can you not laugh so wretchedly?’ Jiang Yu couldn’t help but complain, ‘My head hurts when I listen to you.’

[I’m sorry, host. This Daoist priest is too funny.] The System didn’t hide the mockery in its heart. [It seems that this man is the frog at the bottom of a well1.]

He was already old and thought that his cultivation was very powerful. Little did he know that the man in front of him was many times stronger than him.

‘It’s quite normal.’ Jiang Yu didn’t have any contempt for the old Daoist priest. After all, the world has yet to recover its spiritual energy. Many cultivators can’t even reach the level of this Daoist priest in their entire lives. In his opinion, he has the right to be arrogant.

[I still think that the less capable people are, the more they like to show off.] The system snorted coldly, [Hurry up and defeat him! Do you want him to stay in your villa?]

‘That’s definitely not happening.’

After saying that, Jiang Yu faced the old Daoist priest and clenched his fists. “Alright, let’s fight.”

This scene shocked the bodyguards.

What was that? Their young master was going to fight with an old man? What if he injured him and the man scammed him?

The old Daoist priest also made a gesture to accept the battle. The match between the two was about to start.

Unlike the bodyguards’ moves, the old Daoist priest attacked Jiang Yu agilely without the slightest inconvenience of old age. This shocked the bodyguards.

“Damn it! Is he really an old man? Why do I feel like he’s more agile than me?”

“I’m sure he is only an old man. However, many old people are flexible.”

Jiang Yu could tell what move the old Daoist priest was planning to use at a glance and immediately countered it.

“Wha… What?”

The old Daoist priest was stunned for a long time before he realized that he had lost.

This… He didn’t even realize what had just happened, and his body hadn’t suffered any substantial damage, but he had lost.

“You’re the old man, I’m not going to hurt you. Please leave immediately.”

This time, the old Daoist priest could not stay any longer and left.

Meanwhile, the system was laughing maniacally in Jiang Yu’s head.

[Host, you’re too amazing. You have a talent for acting.]

Acting? Jiang Yu rubbed his chin and said meaningfully, “This is the first time I’ve done this, and after that, I’ll probably be a celebrity.”

The butler was petrified on the spot.

Celebrities. The entertainment industry. Those dirty places… Does the Young Master want to go? Couldn’t he just obediently listen to what his father had planned for him and inherit the family business?

Inheriting the family business was a good fortune that not everyone could experience. Not only that, he wouldn’t have to worry about his income…
