I Can Transform Into a World-Destroying Colossal Beast-Chapter 172 - 166: Farewell, Li Mengwu

In the morning, as Jiang Hou was about to take a break after breakfast, a phone call suddenly came in.

Seeing the caller ID's note as his uncle, Jiang Hou pondered slightly and chose to answer.

"Jiang Hou, you're still in the Demon Sea, right? Qingqing mentioned she ran into you at Century Square last night." Wang Yanfeng's voice came from the other side.

Jiang Hou nodded, "Still here."

Wang Yanfeng said, "Good, do you have time for dinner this evening?"

"Dinner... okay, but I have to leave before nine, I have other matters." Jiang Hou considered it briefly and agreed, coincidentally he also wanted to talk to Wang Yanfeng.

He wanted to know what information Wang Yanfeng held.

After hanging up, Jiang Hou called the Weapon Department at the Celestial Punishment Branch of the Demon Sea, inquiring about the Celestial Spirit Demon-Suppressing Pillar, and received a response to check back later.

If he had access to a Celestial Spirit Demon-Suppressing Pillar capable of bearing the Burning World Domain last night, Jiang Hou felt that he wouldn't have needed to unleash the Heaven-Sundering Strike to break the Dragon Turtle Beast's defense.

For a Purgatory Giant Ape stepping into the seventh tier, having a suitable weapon greatly impacts combat power.

Especially when fighting across different tiers.

However, today's agenda seemed quite full, around ten o'clock, Qin Siyu made a cross-country video call.

"Jiang Hou, what are you up to now?" The girl on the phone had her eyes wide open, almost pressed to the camera, seemingly to see things clearer this way.

Jiang Hou smiled, "At the hotel, how about you over there, having fun these days?"

Qin Siyu nodded excitedly, "Fun, yesterday we went skiing in the snowy mountains, where the snow seals the mountain before December, many people ski there."

"We played there all day and just got back, oh, and it's past five in the afternoon here now."

"That sounds nice."

"It's a lot of fun, I'll take you when you come over."

"Okay."

Seeing the smiling face of the girl as bright as a flower, the murderous intent and violent rage that accumulated in Jiang Hou over the past few days suddenly calmed down.

They chatted a bit more, and then Qin Siyu suddenly remembered something.

"Oh, Jiang Hou, my power is restored, do you need it?"

Jiang Hou hesitated, "Wouldn't work, we're this far apart?"

Nanshan Country is several thousand kilometers away from the Demon Sea, although Qin Siyu's ability is extraordinary, it couldn't possibly reach him through a phone.

"Let's try it, what if it works, didn't you say my power follows what I say." Qin Siyu was eager to try.

"Alright, then this time say I'm invincible."

This time he was going to slay the Tier Eight Legend-level Evil God, having an extra layer of invincibility as a guarantee wouldn't hurt.

"Okay."

Qin Siyu nodded seriously, her expression turning solemn, and a voice filled with strong conviction sounded, "Jiang Hou, you're the strongest and invincible."

Buzz! A red mark on Qin Siyu's forehead lit up, emitting golden radiance.

But this time, the Word Spirit power flickered a few times before the mark dimmed because it couldn't find a 'target.'

"It actually doesn't work." Qin Siyu was a bit disappointed.

Jiang Hou smiled, "It's normal it doesn't work, otherwise your ability would be too exaggerated."

Moving past this topic, Qin Siyu expressed some concern, "Jiang Hou, Rourou hasn't contacted me in a long time, do you think something might be wrong over there?"

"Shengong Tongxue and the others?"

Jiang Hou smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's fine, didn't they say everything was alright before, they probably haven't contacted you for so long because they're busy 'treating an illness.'"

"That makes sense, hope God blesses and helps Rourou recover." Lying on the sofa, the girl asked, "Jiang Hou, how soon can you come over?"

"These two days." Jiang Hou didn't give an exact timeframe.

Currently, his parents' death was stuck at the last step of the funding source, to avoid drawing attention from the Demon Dragon Divine Hall forces over there, he couldn't act and had to wait for Wang Yanfeng's result.

They continued chatting for another half an hour, until a servant knocked on the door calling Qin Siyu to dinner, ending the call.

...

By seven in the evening, when Jiang Hou walked out of the Wis Hotel door, a black sedan was already waiting at the stairs, the driver respectfully opening the car door.

"Mr. Jiang, the boss sent me to pick you up."

Jiang Hou said nothing, just nodded and got in the car.

An average high school student might be excited or thrilled by such a scenario, as it's only seen in movies, but Jiang Hou felt nothing special.

The black sedan drove through the city, and over twenty minutes later, entered a luxurious villa district.

When the sedan stopped in front of a villa, Wang Yanfeng was already waiting at the door, from these details, it was clear he valued his nephew highly.

Looking at the handsome young man getting out of the car, Wang Yanfeng smiled and said, "You've come, Jiang Hou."

"Unc... Uncle." Jiang Hou nodded, but the term "Uncle" came out a bit stiff.

Even though Wang Yanfeng's actions had gained Jiang Hou's recognition, it was still a bit difficult for him to suddenly call someone he hadn't seen in over a decade "Uncle."

Nonetheless, Wang Yanfeng's face broke into a joyful smile, and he burst into hearty laughter, pulling his arm, "Come on, let's go inside and talk."

"Boss."

"Boss..."

Wang Yanfeng's villa in the Demon Sea was very large, almost like a small estate, with just the front yard spanning several hundred square meters. Along the way, they encountered over a dozen men and women, all respectfully calling him "Boss."

The interior of the villa was even more luxurious and spacious, with Jiang Hou's aunt busy directing some staff dressed in maid uniforms.

Wang Yanfeng didn't take him over to greet them, instead leading him directly to the second floor, saying, "Tonight, I've also invited some of our partners from the Demon Sea. I'll introduce you to them later."

"Our family's business is mainly in Bauhinia, and my idea is for you to return to the Demon Sea for university after graduating high school. By then, I'll entrust you with the responsibilities here."

"While not saying how much you'll earn, it's likely not a problem to earn a hundred to two hundred million a year in channel fees."

Wang Yanfeng seemed to think Jiang Hou was just an ordinary person and was already planning his future for him.

"...This, Uncle, aren't you planning a bit too far ahead?" Jiang Hou didn't expect this tonight.

Wang Yanfeng smiled slightly, "In a few months, you'll be graduating high school. By then, at nineteen, you'll be an adult, and it's time to consider your career."

"Just think, as soon as you enter university, you'll be earning over a hundred million a year and will be a regional head of a multinational corporation."

"With such a halo, you can call the shots in university, enjoy your youth, be surrounded by beautiful women, and even the principal and leaders will show you respect."

"This is the vision that your Uncle, I, once dreamed about."

At this, Wang Yanfeng grew a bit sentimental, patting Jiang Hou's shoulder, "Some opportunities and experiences, once missed, are gone forever."

Uh... At that moment, Jiang Hou really wanted to ask if he'd been reading too many romance novels.

However, thinking about this scenario, it did seem a bit satisfying, but of course, this was just a thought. Jiang Hou had no interest in creating that façade in university.

As they spoke, Wang Yanfeng led Jiang Hou to a room.

There, various men's clothes were hung, and a knowledgeable beauty in her twenties had been waiting for a long time.

"Tonight's banquet is quite formal, changing into a formal suit will show more respect to them."

Facing Wang Yanfeng's expectant gaze, Jiang Hou ultimately did not refuse.

Even though he had only met him twice so far, he could feel this Uncle's kind of concern from an elder, which instead made things a bit difficult for Jiang Hou.

He was the type who responds better to gentleness than force. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Under the designer's selection, he quickly changed into a dark gray suit, a style similar to a suit but different, more luxurious.

Once Jiang Hou came out in the new attire, the designer's eyes immediately lit up.

With a cool and handsome face, deep dark eyes exuding a slight aura of authority, and red hair tips that paired with the cool-toned formal wear, his noble temperament became even more prominent.

He looked like a noble young master from ancient times.

"Great!" Seeing the young man who stood out sharply after changing clothes, appearing exceptionally brilliant, Wang Yanfeng's smile grew even wider.

"Let's go, Jiang Hou, the guests have almost all arrived outside."

"It's a pity that your grandfather went to the Markro Islands yesterday afternoon, otherwise he'd surely be very happy to see you now."

By this count, Jiang Hou should be the only male of his generation in the Jiang and Wang families, which was one of the reasons Wang Yanfeng valued him so much.

The Wang family's upbringing was quite traditional; daughters couldn't inherit the family business, so if he doesn't have a son in the future, the Wang family might end up in Jiang Hou's hands.

Following Wang Yanfeng, the two went all the way to the larger back garden of the villa.

The garden was filled with tables and food on both sides, with service staff busying themselves, and guests here and there holding wine glasses, engaging in conversations or casually chatting at the tables.

Among these mostly middle-aged people in their thirties and forties, Li Mengwu, in an elegant black gown with her long hair styled up, stood out prominently.

Her already tall figure looked even more shapely in the gown, her exquisite and beautiful face shining brightly under the lights, an absolute stunner.

Thus, when Jiang Hou and Wang Yanfeng appeared, the first thing they noticed was Li Mengwu, holding a wine glass and standing beside a middle-aged noblewoman.

There's no helping it; appreciating beauty is human nature.

At this moment, someone laughed, "President Wang, you said you had something to attend to earlier. Who knew you'd be gone so long? Shouldn't you have a drink as a forfeit?"

"Haha... No problem." Wang Yanfeng chuckled nodding, saying this as he descended the steps.

At the same time, some people noticed the handsome young man following Wang Yanfeng, including Li Mengwu, who instinctively looked over and was momentarily taken aback.

At the same time, Yang Zixuan and Bai Qingyun, sitting in the corner, suddenly stood up.

"Jiang Hou!"
