Chapter 74: Awakener (1/2)

Shen Die hurriedly ran behind Shen Yu and said, “Grandfather, that bold individual bullied me!”

“…” Shen Cheng’s face twitched. Clearly, you were the one who challenged me! Now that you lost, you’re going to complain to Grandfather? Are you a child?!

“I saw everything.” Shen Yu nodded, crossing his hands behind his back as he faced Shen Cheng. “It seems you’ve improved quite a bit while you’ve been out. I thought you had neglected everything I taught you before.”

Actually… maybe I did neglect some of it?

“Yes, Grandfather, some things happened.” Shen Cheng remained respectful in front of Shen Yu.

“Then…” Shen Yu picked up the wooden stick Shen Die had just thrown away and said, “Let me see how much you’ve really improved.”

Here it comes, the duel initiated by Grandfather!

Shen Cheng gripped the wooden stick tightly, focusing on Shen Yu. Even though he now had the ability from the Cat and Dog Demi-Humans Genetics, Shen Yu still felt as vast as the ocean, unfathomable!

Impossible! Grandfather is just an ordinary person, even if he’s practiced martial arts his whole life, how could he possibly compete with a strengthened aptitude user…?

Though these thoughts crossed his mind, Shen Cheng didn’t dare underestimate him.

He stepped back, planted his heel, and suddenly sprang forward with all his strength, thrusting the wooden stick at Shen Yu. The sound of the stick piercing through the air echoed like thunder!

The full power of the Cat and Dog Demi-Humans exploded!

Three meters, two meters, one meter… As the wooden stick rapidly approached Shen Yu, Shen Cheng still saw no movement from him. Shen Cheng thought for a moment that Shen Yu hadn’t reacted in time, and in shock, he quickly tried to pull back.

At that moment, Shen Yu moved!

Even though Shen Cheng activated his dynamic vision, he couldn’t catch how Shen Yu made his move. He only felt a sharp pain in his hand as the wooden stick was knocked to the ground, followed by intense pain in his knee, causing him to lose strength. Then, there was a final sharp pain on top of his head, and Shen Cheng heard a crisp “thud” coming from his skull.

Three consecutive waves of pain left Shen Cheng dizzy, and he collapsed to the ground, right in front of Shen Yu.

Since he landed face-first, Shen Cheng slid a bit across the floor, his face stinging from the friction, deeply shocked in his heart.

Grandfather… could he really be strong enough to defeat an aptitude user now?!

“Yay!” Shen Die cheered excitedly, “Grandfather defeated the world-destroying demon king!”

Shen Cheng: “…”

After defeating Shen Cheng, Shen Yu stared at him blankly for a moment, then burst out laughing. “As expected of my grandson! It seems the Shen Family has someone to carry on the legacy!”

Carry on the legacy = being defeated with one move?

Shen Cheng’s face twitched.

He sighed deeply and, feeling most of the pain fading away, stood back up.

“There’s nothing much to do in the coming days, so just follow me and practice properly!” Shen Yu’s calm voice drifted over, making Shen Cheng freeze in place.

Shen Die looked at her bold individual with pity.

It seems the bold individual is not far from being utterly worn out…

The doors to the martial arts hall opened, and Lin Yuhui and the others, who had been waiting outside for a long time, entered. “Sorry to interrupt!”

“Great Grandfather!” Milk Tea set Yanyan down, and Yanyan ran up to Shen Yu, who picked her up with a warm smile.
