My master gave me a death mission: to go down the mountain and retrieve his granddaughter.

In the back seat of the Maybach,

Looking through the car window at the handsome face in front of her, which was slightly immature yet exuded maturity and composure, Lin Wan'er's heart suddenly raced, and a sense of unease welled up within her.

The scene of Su Muchen sending dozens of bodyguards flying with a single word just now surprised her, but she was only a little surprised and not really astonished.

Lin Wan'er was different from the onlookers. The Lin family was an old and established family with a long history, and the circles they came into contact with were naturally incomparable to those of ordinary people.

As the president of the Lin Group, Lin Wan'er was naturally familiar with that circle that was difficult for ordinary people to access.

This so-called circle is the cultivation world hidden in the secular world. On Blue Star, it is not as ordinary people see or come into contact with that there are cultivators with extraordinary strength in every country.

In the Dragon Kingdom, there are not only martial arts families, but also various cultivation sects. These cultivators usually keep a low profile, but their strength is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Those who cultivate in the Dragon Kingdom are called martial artists. Starting from the novice martial apprentice, they cultivate step by step to the ultimate through unremitting efforts.

The cultivation levels of martial artists are divided into six major realms from weakest to strongest: Martial Apprentice, Martial Artist, Martial Master, Martial Grandmaster, Martial King, and Martial Emperor.

Above the Martial Emperor realm is the Acquired Perfection realm. If one can break through the Acquired Perfection realm, one can attain the Great Dao and ascend to the Immortal Realm. This is also the final cultivation realm in the mortal world—the Innate Realm.

Although the Lin family is not a martial arts family, as one of the top conglomerates in the country, it naturally has no shortage of powerful martial arts practitioners.

Lin Wan'er has been exposed to this circle since she was a child, so she was naturally not surprised by this, especially since the Lin family values ​​her personal safety more than anything else, especially now that she is the president of the Lin Group.

To the untrained eye, Lin Wan'er's bodyguards consisted of only a few dozen retired soldiers, but this was only on the surface. The one who truly protected Lin Wan'er was her driver.

Don't let the driver's unassuming appearance fool you; he's a genuine martial artist, and quite powerful at that, possessing the strength of a peak Martial Grandmaster. Among the martial artists serving the Lin family, he's one of the top ten.

Just as Su Muchen sent those bodyguards flying with a single word, this Martial Grandmaster was about to make a move, but Lin Wan'er stopped him.

Su Muchen naturally noticed the driver, who was quite strong, but he didn't take him seriously. A Martial Grandmaster level expert was no match for him.

Let alone Martial Grandmasters, even Martial Kings or Martial Emperors are like weaklings in front of Su Muchen.

Two years ago, Su Muchen had already broken through to the perfected Acquired Realm, and his strength was comparable to that of his master, the old man. He had already stood at the pinnacle of the Blue Star cultivation world.

The reason Su Muchen left the secret realm and went to the city for training was not only the "deadly mission" given to him by the old man, but also an important reason: to seek an opportunity to break through to the Innate Realm in the city.

Since breaking through to the Perfected Acquired Realm, no matter how hard Su Muchen cultivated over the past two years, he was unable to take that step, which is why he had no choice but to leave the secret realm.

Cultivation emphasizes self-cultivation and character building, which involves not only physical cultivation but also mental cultivation. According to his master, Su Muchen's talent is unprecedented and unparalleled. He broke through to the Acquired Perfection realm in just sixteen years.

It should be noted that Su Muchen's master, an old man, was also known as a genius or prodigy in the cultivation world when he was young. However, he cultivated for more than fifty years and only broke through to the perfect realm of the acquired realm when he was over sixty years old.

And so, this old man created a legend in the cultivation world, becoming a giant in the martial arts world of the Dragon Kingdom and the goal that all martial arts practitioners strive for.

What puzzled the entire martial arts world was that the old man disappeared without a trace right after his breakthrough, and there was no news of him for more than ten years. The entire martial arts world was spreading rumors that he had perished during his breakthrough.

This shows how terrifying Su Muchen's talent is. However, it is precisely because he has not contacted the outside world for so many years and has devoted himself to cultivation that he lacks in temperament.

The reason why Su Muchen was unable to break through to the final step was probably because of this. That's why his master sent Su Muchen into the mortal world to experience and temper his character.

That said, after calming herself down a bit, Lin Wan'er finally rolled down the back window.

"Look, the mysterious CEO is finally about to show himself..."

As the rear window of the Maybach slowly rolled down, it immediately caused a stir among the onlookers, who all craned their necks, eager to catch a glimpse of the mysterious CEO.

Just as everyone was filled with anticipation, the rear window of the Maybach only rolled down ten centimeters before stopping. It was obviously impossible for the onlookers to see what was happening inside through that small gap, which left everyone feeling quite disappointed.

Of course, from Su Muchen's standing angle, he was directly facing Lin Wan'er, who was sitting in the back seat.

"Miss Lin, you've finally shown yourself."

"Mr. Su, you have indeed surprised me, but that's all. You don't really pique my interest."

Lin Wan'er's calm words were filled with arrogance and confidence, which was not surprising at all. After all, Lin Wan'er had shown extraordinary talent since childhood. She took over the position of president of Lin's Group right after her sixteenth birthday and has been in that position for three years. She has long since developed the authority of a leader.

Of course, Lin Wan'er's arrogance seemed insignificant to Su Muchen.

Su Muchen was too lazy to chat with Lin Wan'er about trivial matters and went straight to the point.

"Miss Lin, I heard you want to call off the engagement? Does your grandfather know about this?"

"Hmph, you don't need to use my grandfather to put pressure on me. In the Lin family, no one can force my will, not even my grandfather."

Lin Wan'er's words surprised Su Muchen slightly. Wasn't his marriage to Lin Wan'er arranged by his master? Why was Lin Wan'er acting out of line? It seems that his master is no good either, he can't even control his own granddaughter.

"Let me tell you the truth. Although I don't want to go against Grandpa's wishes, the man who is Lin Wan'er's will must be an outstanding individual. Do you think you are worthy of me?"

Now Su Muchen understood. It turned out that in Lin Wan'er's eyes, he was not a dragon, but a worm. Lin Wan'er was right about one thing: to become her partner, given her excellence, one had to be an exceptional person.

"Oh, Miss Lin, so according to you, I'm just a worthless toad in your eyes, dreaming of eating swan meat?"

"What? Isn't that right? You really think that just because you have some strength, you're good enough for me, Lin Wan'er? What a joke! My Lin family has at least eighty to a hundred martial artists under our wing, and our strongest ones are among the best in the entire Dragon Kingdom. Do you really think that a useless martial artist like you is qualified to be my man?"

"Qualifications? Ha..."

Hearing Lin Wan'er's words, Su Muchen shook his head with a hint of helplessness.

"What's with that expression? Am I wrong?"

"Miss Lin, although I admire your talent for managing a large corporation at such a young age, I really can't say I admire your judgment of people. I can only say, 'How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan?'"

Su Muchen's words were not only full of confidence, but also revealed a domineering aura. That's right, it was domineering aura, and Lin Wan'er could feel it too.

Lin Wan'er was puzzled. The man in front of her was about the same age as her, but why did he exude such a strong aura, even suppressing her own aura as a person in a high position for many years?

Furthermore, with Lin Wan'er's intelligence, how could she not understand what Su Muchen meant? However, looking at Su Muchen from head to toe, apart from his slightly immature handsome face, he looked no different from a country bumpkin.

"Mr. Su, although I don't know where your confidence comes from, since you're so ambitious, and I'm not the kind of person who's arrogant, how about we make a deal? Within a year, whether it's business or martial arts, as long as you reach a level that ordinary people can't achieve in either field, then I'll acknowledge this marriage contract. Otherwise, if you can't do it, then our marriage contract will be void. That way, I won't be going against my grandfather's wishes. What do you think?"

"A year? Tsk..."

Lin Wan'er's words made Su Muchen shake his head helplessly once again.

"What? You're too scared?"

In Lin Wan'er's eyes, Su Muchen's behavior was like a self-deprecating joke about his incompetence, which made Lin Wan'er's impression of Su Muchen drop even further.

But is Su Muchen really incompetent? Of course not. He was laughing at Lin Wan'er's ignorance. Putting aside other fields, with Su Muchen's current strength, even in the entire Blue Star cultivation world, there are only a handful of experts whose strength is comparable to Su Muchen's. Wouldn't that mean he has already reached the level Lin Wan'er mentioned?

However, Su Muchen thought about it again and realized that the reason Lin Wan'er looked down on him was because she was a young woman who had become the president of a group, while he was a penniless young man who had just entered society.

Since Lin Wan'er values ​​this so much, I'll go along with her wishes and set myself a small goal: to create a business empire even larger than the Lin Group within a year. Then I'll give this arrogant girl a good slap in the face and make her willingly become my woman.

"Alright, I agree to your one-year promise. I hope you can maintain this arrogance in the future, my Miss Lin."
