Chapter 1 Luxury Car and Beautiful Lady

Jiangyi County, Police Station.

A tall and lanky young man slowly walked out, looking utterly dispirited.

"Finally out," Ye Tian looked up at the sky, took a deep breath, with a somewhat dazed expression.

Three days ago, Ye Tian, a bartender, smashed a beer bottle over the head of a trouble-making rich young master to save a drunk beauty.

But in doing so, he was severely beaten, bloodied, and falsely accused and taken to the police station.

"What a stroke of bad luck," he thought to himself, bewildered at the madness that led him to risk his wellbeing for a stranger, especially considering the rich young master's glance during the jail visit, which seemed to remind him that his future days would not be easy.

But then...

Ye Tian secretly clenched the jade pendant in his hand. The ancestral jade pendant had absorbed his blood and suddenly transformed into a surge of warm energy that merged into Ye Tian's body.

Not only did his injuries heal instantly, but his mind was also flooded with a mishmash of cultivation-related knowledge, such as Alchemy, Talisman Refining, Artifact Refining, and more. Most importantly, he obtained a powerful ancient Cultivation Method — the Heavenly Creation Scripture!

Thinking of the knowledge in his mind, Ye Tian revealed a faint smile; it seemed he had gained a blessing from a misfortune!

At that moment, a red convertible Porsche roared up, with a beauty wearing blue sunglasses sitting inside.

Beauty, luxury car — the epitome of a wealthy beauty, immediately drawing the eyes of passersby.

Ye Tian was also momentarily dazzled, but such a top-tier beauty was surely out of reach for a poor man like him. He was about to leave when the red Porsche stopped right in front of him.

Su Yuxin removed her sunglasses and looked at Ye Tian: "Ye Tian!"

Ye Tian was startled; was this beauty looking for him?

"You are..." Finally, Ye Tian realized that this beauty was the drunken woman he had saved three days ago!

Su Yuxin stepped out of the car and extended her hand to Ye Tian with polite formality, "Su Yuxin, president of Mengli Group."

"Ye Tian, bartender at Xianglong Bar," Ye Tian replied calmly. Previously, he might have been overwhelmed, but now his mind was full of Cultivation Techniques, and he was eager to digest the new information in his head.

Surprise flickered in Su Yuxin's beautiful eyes.

Usually, someone of Ye Tian's status would feel inferior when interacting with her, but Ye Tian showed no such feeling.

"I'm very grateful for that day you saved me," Su Yuxin nodded, "I'm not one to beat around the bush. I don't like owing people favors; I'm here to repay you."

Su Yuxin took out a wallet from her pink LV bag and placed a bank card in front of Ye Tian.

"There's a hundred thousand in this card, consider it my way of saying thanks."

Ye Tian intended to refuse, but then thought again; he had just started his Cultivation journey and needed a lot of materials. Without money, he couldn't proceed, so he didn't put on airs and accepted the card, "I accept the money. Goodbye."

With that, he turned and walked away.

Su Yuxin was taken aback; other men would do anything to get close to her, but Ye Tian couldn't even be bothered to chat a bit more?

A sense of frustration rose from the bottom of her heart. Su Yuxin called Ye Tian back, "Wait!"

"What's up?" Ye Tian turned around.

"I was wondering if you could help me with something," Su Yuxin said, suddenly showing a hint of coyness.

"With what?" Ye Tian was puzzled; why would Su Yuxin, a big-time CEO, need his help?

"I'd like you to accompany me to a gathering," Su Yuxin revealed her intention; she had a class reunion tonight and needed an Arrow Shield to avoid harassment from certain individuals. Ye Tian, a man of integrity, was an excellent choice.

Ye Tian understood and pondered for a moment.

Su Yuxin held a high position and could have ignored him, but she personally saw to his release, which showed her kindness. Helping her out was not a bad idea, and besides, at a gathering, he could eat and drink for free — why not?

So he nodded in agreement.

Su Yuxin was overjoyed, personally opened the car door for Ye Tian, "We'll set off right now. After we succeed, I'll give you another sum of money!"

Ye Tian nodded, then got straight into the car.

Passersby were stunned: such a beautiful woman, actually opening the car door for a rather plain-looking man with a beaming smile? Could it be that Ye Tian is a low-profile rich second generation heir?

The car zoomed away. On the road, Su Yuxin roughly explained the situation of the gathering. After Ye Tian heard it, he just nodded casually and then closed his eyes to begin cultivating the Heavenly Creation Scripture.

He had finally seized an opportunity and needed to get stronger as quickly as possible, so he could provide his family with a better life.

But in Su Yuxin's eyes, she felt that he was ungrateful. She had never been so warmly enthusiastic towards a man before, and to be treated like this!

With a snort, Su Yuxin stepped on the accelerator.

Half an hour later, they arrived in front of a luxurious five-star hotel.

Ye Tian opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashed through them. Though he had only cultivated for two short days, his physical condition had undergone a qualitative change!

They got out of the car, took the elevator, and headed straight to the 18th floor.

Inside a grand private room, a dozen men and women were chatting and laughing. When Ye Tian and Su Yuxin pushed the door and entered, everyone's gaze swept over.

"Yuxin, you finally made it!"

A flamboyantly dressed, coquettish woman walked over gracefully, "All the classmates are here, just waiting for you! Young Master Wang has been asking me when you were going to arrive!"

Her name was He Caixiao, she was the vice class president during university, had mediocre grades, but had a knack for networking, especially good at flattery.

Su Yuxin slightly smiled and nodded to everyone as a greeting.

"Yuxin, come sit here." A dignified man stood up, pulling out a chair next to himself.

He was very well-dressed, with a suit, watch, and leather shoes all from famous brands – clearly a wealthy man.

This person was Young Master Wang, the heir to a local fashion group. He had been pursuing Su Yuxin for a long time, and although unsuccessful, he remained persistent.

The primary reason Su Yuxin brought Ye Tian was to use him as a shield against Young Master Wang.

"No need, we'll sit over there." Su Yuxin pointed at two vacant seats next to each other.

"Us?" Young Master Wang frowned as he finally noticed Ye Tian behind Su Yuxin, a hidden chill flashing in his eyes.

He Caixiao, seeing the situation, timely asked: "Yuxin, and this gentleman is...?"

Su Yuxin looked over at Ye Tian, "Let me introduce him. This is my... boyfriend, his name is Ye Tian."

Upon this revelation, everyone was shocked.

When did Su Yuxin have a boyfriend? And judging from Ye Tian's attire, he was obviously a poor chap!

He Caixiao recovered and joked: "Yuxin, are you joking with us? With your status as a president, how could you choose such a man as a boyfriend? He is totally not a match for you!"

Between the lines, she didn't take Ye Tian seriously at all.

Su Yuxin's face turned cold immediately, "Who I choose as a boyfriend is my freedom. If I think he is a match, that's enough."

He Caixiao did not expect Su Yuxin to defend Ye Tian so resolutely and couldn't say anything in response for a moment.

The atmosphere became awkward, and Young Master Wang shifted his eyes, smilingly said: "Since he is a friend of Yuxin's, let's all sit together then."

He wasn't a fool, and could tell at a glance that Ye Tian was brought by Su Yuxin as an arrow shield, posing no threat to himself.

Ye Tian, from beginning to end, had not said a word, and regardless of everyone's gaze, sat down with nonchalance.

"May I ask from which prestigious university did Mr. Ye graduate, and where do you currently hold a high position?" He Caixiao started targeting him immediately.
