Read Novel Full Volume 2 Chapter 2
Lin Jie and Xiao Loli Lin Mu Mu went down the road to go to the Shaw Building on the way home, then left the puppy at Xiao Zhan's house, after feeding it some chilli sticks.
"Speaking of this dog, I remember it seems to be a handful." Lin Jie recognized the breed of this puppy.
"Pupper, stay here, oh! Tomorrow, I will come see you with my friend." Lin Mu Mu told the puppy.
"Woof!" The puppy yipped happily and began to make a ruckus in Xiao Zhan's house.
"Come on, they said the special training would last half a month." Lin Jie said: "The end of that time is coming up soon."
"Oh."
Lin Jie reminisced about what happened two weeks ago.
---
"Special Training?" Lin Jie was surprised to see two people, Dong Xue'er and Dong Xiaoye. He said: "You are still weak. Do some special training, but why would I want to participate?"
"Don't say that! This is a good opportunity. The A-level hero Dong Xiaoye used her family's connections to arrange special training for us." Xiao Zhan spoke from the side: " Even if your strength is huge, isn't this still a great chance to get even stronger?"
"It's not an exaggeration to say that if you want to be any kind of hero, strength is the last word." Glasses Bro added from the other side: "If only I'd been strong enough, my Virtuous Glasses wouldn't have been sacrificed."
"What the heck are these Virtuous Glasses?" Lin said: "Regardless, I'm not going. Because of all these heroics, I've already had to miss a lot of new animes and games. What a waste of my time. As if I'd also do special training with you!"
"Don't say that." At this time, Black Gold showed up and added his voice. Platinum and Yatan followed him in.
"That is, as a person who has developed perfect muscles, don't you plan to further refine your muscles?" Platinum urged. "We can study muscle problems together, can't we?"
"Scram! Go die!"
"Lin Jie, this intensive training has been arranged at my request." Dong Xue'er moved closer to Lin Jie and argued: "In fact, this is because I really want to repay you guys for all your help, especially you, Lin Jie."
"Then please buy me the latest PS22. Aren't you, like, super rich?" Lin Jie replied.
"You really don't want to get even stronger?" Dong Xue'er asked: "You should know, if your strength is developed properly, you can likely squeeze into the ranks of S-class heros."
"What?!" The others were in shock.
"Ouyang Rui and Kato. Lin Jie defeated both of them singlehandedly." Dong Xue'er said: "I also became aware of many of my own shortcomings in this last fight, so I hope to work through them. That is, I was also hoping to get some pointers from you, Lin Jie."
"Not interested!" Lin Jie insisted he didn't need it.
"You still won't pull your own weight!" Dong Xiaoye couldn't stand it anymore. "Not even I have gotten these levels of benefits as Xue'er's sister! What a senseless creature."
"It's too much trouble, and it wouldn't make enough difference to be worth it. I'm just not interested in this special training you've arranged." Lin Jie said: "You know, it's just two days until my anime starts."
"But..." Dong Xue'er still wanted to protest.
"Big sis, don't waste your breath on this stupid guy." Dong Xiaoye interrupted. "Since he doesn't want it anyway."
"But.." Dong Xue'er gritted her teeth, and finally shook her head in desperation.
Originally, she wanted to conduct some kind of ability tests on Lin Jie directly at the training location. If he did well enough, he should be able to jump straight to S-class. At that rank, it would be harder for the Ouyang family to make trouble for him later.
"I say, Lin Jie, this hot girl is inviting you like this, yet you still won't give her any face." Xiao Zhan rebuked Lin Jjie: "Never reject the enthusiasm of a hot sister, or you will be a bachelor forever."
"Is that so?" Lin Jie glanced at Xiao, then spoke to Shadow, who was wearing a maid costume. "Miss Step, Xiao Zhan said he wants some more milk."
"No problem."
Since Shadow joined them after the fight, Xiao Zhan used some connections to get her a new identity. Shadow's new name was Step Dance.
---
"A new name? Too much trouble, we should just change it to Fire Shadow." Shadow told Xiao Zhan.
"Are you the boss here?" Xiao Zhan said.
After some discussion, Xiao Zhan filled in the paperwork and gave Shadow a brand new name - Step Dance.
"No way? That's actually a good name." Shadow said.
In this way, Shadow, who was now renamed Step Dance, came to live in the same Shaw Building as Xiao Zhan.
T/N:This convo is a little shaky and I'm not sure I really got it right, but oh well. She got renamed and is following Xiao Zhan around.
---
After Lin Jie spoke to her, Dance (Shadow) pulled out the pixelated decontamination stick and walked over to Xiao Zhan: "Let me feed you, master."
After she said that, she put the stick in Xiao Zhan's mouth..
That scene..
Xiao Zhan struggled to talk, and his mouth was still full of white milk.
"MMSDLKJFKLJSFIASFSKLDJF!!!"
What was that? Master? I can't hear you clearly." Step Dance asked Xiao Zhan.
"He says he wants to drink more." Lin translated.
"No problem, master!"
"Hey!"
"You can go, too, Dance." Dong Xue'er said from the side. "You can join our special intensive training."
"I can?" Step Dance, asked, surprised, looking at Dong Xue'er. "But I...I was in Evolutionary Gene Corp before; I shouldn't be allowed to join your training."
"Of course, we've observed you for long enough now. I've decided to trust you." said Xue Xue, smiling.
"Really?" Dance was very happy after hearing this. She unconsciously pushed harder, and the whole decontamination stick went into Xiao Zhan's mouth. The latter's eyes crossed and he fainted directly.
"Happy training!" Lin Jie said.
"You really won't come?" Dong Xue'er looked back at Lin Jie: "I really am willing to invite you."
"I'm not interested." Lin Jie replied to Dong Xue'er.
"I didn't think you could really reject me." Dong Xue'er made a pouty expression and said to Dong Xiaoye: "What will I do, Xiaoye, I was rejected by this skinny guy!"
"..." Lin Jie looked at such a Dong Xue'er and said: "I'm plenty strong, there's no need for training. You guys just don't understand this thing called the loneliness of the strongest."
"Just you? Don't think that just because you defeated two A-classes, you're all that. You know, even in just the eight clans, there are a lot of S-class heroes." Dong Xiaoye said, irritated. "And that's just S-class. There's even SS-class, so don't go thinking you're invincible in this world."
"At least against you, there're no problems, though." said Lin Jie.
"What are you going on about?!" Dong Xiaoye replied angrily: "Believe it or not, I'll teach you a lesson today."
"Yes," Lin Jie agreed: "All of you come together. As long as you win, I'll go to that special training with you."
"Don't forget your words!" Dong Xiaoye said, as an ice gun appeared in her hands.
...In the end, Lin Jie got to stay home.
After the fight, Lin Jie asked Dong Xue'er who was sitting on the ground: "Oh yeah, do you have any news on Thirteen?"
"Don't worry, he's already gone ahead of us to the training location." Dong Xiaoye climbed to her feet. "Damn, this guy is too strong. Xue'er sis, he's way stronger than you said!"
"What! You said Thirteen is at the training place?" Glasses Bro caught the gist of their conversation from where he was sitting on the ground: "Can I skip? I suddenly feel like watching that new show with Lin Jie would be the best choice..."
"What did you say?" Dong Xiaoye glared at him coldly.
The next day, as Lin Jie watched, everyone got on the plane to head for the training location.
"Lucky I didn't agree at the time." Lin Jie said to himself, "I don't think I'll ever participate in any intensive training. It would definitely be hell."

Present Day:
Lin Jie and Xiao Loli returned home, where he was surprised to find that Lin Wan had already cooked a meal for them.
"How come you're home so early today?" Lin Jie greeted Lin Wan.
"Nothing big, I just came back early to look into a group of people who were talking business. Those people seem to have been from the Ouyang family." Lin Wan said. "Speaking of, the person you wasted a while back was an Ouyang guy."
"Oh, that guy, no worries!" Lin Jie told her. "That guy isn't in a state to be scheming anything."
"But brother, when I saw the news, he seemed to say something to you? Then he laughed and got into the car." Lin Wan said.
"Rest assured, it was but the barking of a defeated dog." Lin Jie answered.
"But still, be careful." Lin Wan said. "I heard that the Ouyang family is very famous in business and political circles. Beyond that, there are many superheroes in that family."
"Don't worry! There won't be any problems at all." Lin Jie said.
---
When he had handed Ouyang Rui to the police, Ouyang Rui had in fact said something to Lin Jie before entering the escort car.
"I will get out quickly, and then you should expect the Ouyang family's revenge." Ouyang Rui said, before getting into the car.
"..." Lin Jie didn't answer, instead giving Ouyang Rui a look.
Only Ouyang Rui saw the red light in Lin Jie's eyes. In just those two seconds, Ouyang Rui was crushed by a heavy murderous intent. In that instant, he saw himself killed in a thousand different ways.
The strong murderousness directly whisked Ouyang Rui's mind and spirit into paste.
Then Ouyang Rui was smirking and getting onto the bus. No one could tell that he had been driven completely mad by that look from Lin Jie.
Often, when a person's spirit is hit with a strong wind, most people, not having enough strength, will be driven just as crazy as Ouyang Rui.
However, this incident had been kept to himself; for some things, it's enough for just you yourself to know...
