Chapter 25 - He Is This Young Master’s Brother
Chapter 25 He Is This Young Master’s Brother
Soon, Young Master Wang finished taking both the second and third-tier gene-enhancing medicines. Everything went smoothly, without any rejection.
After the gene modification was completed, Young Master Wang eagerly approached the strength testing machine and threw a punch.
Boom~~!
The tremendous impact caused the entire room to tremble.
Outside the door, Manager Chen was startled so badly that the cigarette in his hand fell.
What immense strength!
Is that the power of a Level-four genetic warrior?
No, that can’t be!
Even a Level-four genetic warrior wouldn’t have such strength!
Inside the room, both Young Master Wang and Liu Bo were utterly stunned, staring dumbfounded at the display showing the number 127.
“127?!”
My god!
This was far beyond a Level-four genetic warrior!
Even a quasi-elementalist wouldn’t reach this level!
Typically, a Level-four genetic warrior has a combat power index of around 90, and a quasi-elementalist would be about 100.
“Am I really this powerful now?!” Young Master Wang looked at his fist in disbelief.
This is only the strength of a third-tier genetic warrior!
Liu Bo swallowed hard.
Even he felt a bit tempted, though only briefly, as he wasn’t bold enough to take the risk. After all, it was common knowledge that taking gene serums could reduce one’s cultivation aptitude by 90%.
Elementalists especially valued their cultivation aptitude, so no one would take such a gamble.
What he didn’t know was that this “perfect” gene serum had no side effects.
“This was worth it! Absolutely worth it!” Young Master Wang felt an unparalleled sense of satisfaction.
“Little brother, from now on, we’re friends. My name is Wang Xiao. What’s yours?”
“Qin Feng.”
“Brother Qin Feng, what’s your WeChat? Your phone number? Let’s exchange contact information.”
Wang Xiao was incredibly enthusiastic.
In this era, there was mobile banking, WeChat, and other social apps, even food delivery services like Meituan, but no Taobao.
The reason was simple: human base cities were surrounded by fierce and demonic beasts, making large-scale online shopping impractical. It’s not like you could ask an elementalist to be a delivery driver!
Also, no one named Ma Yun* had emerged to create such an empire.
[*Jack Ma Yun is a Chinese business magnate, investor and philanthropist. He is the co-founder of Alibaba Group, a multinational technology conglomerate.]
Sometimes, Qin Feng thought that if he could wipe out all the beasts one day and set up a shopping platform similar to Taobao, it would make a fortune.
Wang Xiao genuinely wanted to make friends with Qin Feng, and Qin Feng didn’t refuse.
The two exchanged contact information. Wang Xiao, still eager to please, said, “Brother Qin Feng, your master must be quite the expert. How’s his research on Level-four gene serums coming along?”
“It’s still a bit tricky. It’ll probably take some time before it’s fully developed,” Qin Feng lied casually.
“Oh!” Wang Xiao nodded repeatedly. “Brother Qin, if your master ever succeeds in developing the Level-four gene serum, remember to tell me first! I want to buy it!”
Qin Feng sighed, “Ah, Brother Wang, I don’t even know how to explain to my master about this batch of Level-four gene serum…”
Wang Xiao patted Qin Feng on the shoulder, “Brother, my future as a Level-four genetic warrior depends on you. I hope you’ll help me out; consider it a favor I owe you.”
“All right, I’ll do my best.”
Wang Xiao was overjoyed. “Qin Feng, from now on, you’re my brother. If you ever need anything, just ask me. In Yunyang City, my word carries weight!”
Qin Feng smiled without saying much.
The group left the observation room shortly after.
At the door, Manager Chen, seeing that Wang Xiao was safe and sound, breathed a huge sigh of relief.
“Young Master Wang, you succeeded?” he asked curiously.
“Of course! My brother’s medicine is like no other. It’s a divine elixir, far superior to your regular stuff,” Wang Xiao said cheerfully.
“Yes, yes!” Manager Chen smiled obsequiously, though inwardly, he was shocked. So the gene serum with 0% rejection rate really exists! This is huge!
He quickly turned to Qin Feng with a flattering smile. “Young brother, care to chat sometime?”
Manager Chen clearly sensed a business opportunity.
“Sorry, I have other things to attend to,” Qin Feng replied, uninterested.
He had no intention of mass-producing the perfect gene serum. That would only weaken the foundational advantage he and Chuchu had. Selling a little here and there was enough.
“Haha! If you don’t have time now, we can always talk later. Here’s my card. If you’re ever interested, just contact me directly.”
Manager Chen eagerly handed him a business card, which Qin Feng casually accepted.
Wang Xiao thought for a moment, then turned to Manager Chen with a stern expression. “Manager Chen, this is my brother. If you have no good reason, don’t bother him. Otherwise, if I’m in a bad mood, your life won’t be so pleasant either.”
This thinly veiled threat startled Manager Chen.
Young Master Wang wasn’t just any spoiled official’s child. He had broad connections and was skilled in socializing—an impressive figure in his own right.
Among his peers, he had considerable influence, and he was known for his competitive nature. If it weren’t for his inability to cultivate, he would have long made a name for himself in Yunyang City. Manager Chen wouldn’t dare offend him.
“Haha! Young Master Wang, you’re joking. I won’t trouble your brother unless he contacts me first.”
Wang Xiao smiled faintly, saying nothing more.
Naturally, Manager Chen didn’t dare press Qin Feng further. After that, the group left the pharmacy.
“Qin Feng, let’s stay in touch,” Wang Xiao said.
“Of course, of course.”
With that, they parted ways. However, as they were leaving, Wang Xiao’s lingering gaze seemed somewhat reluctant, making Qin Feng feel uneasy. Grabbing Chuchu, he hastily left the scene.
Soon, the two found themselves in a secluded alley.
Chuchu suddenly said, “Brother, don’t you think Young Master Wang is a bit odd?”
“Yeah, I thought he was a bit strange too,” Qin Feng nodded.
Chuchu giggled, “I think he’s strange because he smells so nice, and his skin is so fair. Could he actually be a woman?”
“What nonsense!” Qin Feng playfully flicked her on the head. “Didn’t you see his flat chest?”
But as soon as the words left his mouth, Qin Feng regretted it. He noticed Chuchu’s face turning red, and realized he’d said something he shouldn’t have—Chuchu’s chest was anything but flat, and she was probably lost in her own thoughts now.
