I Am A Prodigy Chapter 39
Advertisement
In the hall, a murderous intent spread throughout the room. On that day, in that spot, blood must be spilled!
Everyone stared nervously at Ye Lingchen unblinkingly.
Facing the pincer attack, Ye Lingchen stood as though stunned in fear. His hands remained behind his back, strands of hair waved in the air, yet he remained unmoving.
Many shut their eyes tight, unable to watch.
Just as the fist and dagger were an inch away from him, Ye Lingchen burst into motion!
He lifted one hand, as though an eagle swooping on a chick, easily caught the European hunk's fist in his hand.
He then lifted one leg, last to act yet first to reach, landed a kick on the Southeast Asian's shoulder!
Whoosh—
The Southeast Asian's body flew through the air in a big arc, crashing forcefully into the wall.
His entire shoulder distorted from the kick, his body spasmed, then passed out immediately.
After that, Ye Lingchen struck like lightning, sent a hook onto the European hunk's cheek!
The European hunk's head twisted sideways, his cheeks deformed.
Both figures flew out front and back, going silent without even the slightest groan.
Silence!
Time had stopped at that moment!
Within the hall, even the sounds of breathing were absent.
Everyone's eyes were wide open, as though they were statues. They stood stupefied on the spot!
Wu Feng and Lu Hao included.
From the moment Ye Lingchen launched his attack, to the moment the two bouncers fell to the ground. The entire process was in less than three breaths!
In merely three breaths!
Too fast!!!
Nobody could see the process clearly. They could only see those two persons flying away the moment Ye Lingchen raised his hand and leg.
It was as if they were dreaming.
This result was not just unexpected, it was a miracle.
One should know, they were all anticipating how badly Ye Lingchen would end up. Who would have thought Ye Lingchen to be this strong?
"So, do you still think there are only two options now?"
Ye Lingchen looked at Lu Hao, his gaze caused a chill to run through Lu Hao's body, instilling fear in him.

"What are you doing? Stay away!"
Ye Lingchen walked forward step by step, all the way until he reached Lu Hao. Nobody dared to stop him.
Even Wu Feng, who was the most violent one earlier, kept his mouth shut at this moment.
The next moment!
Ye Lingchen raised his hand and struck like the wind.
A slap landed squarely on Lu Hao's cheek!
Smack!
Lu Hao flew to the ground.
The booming sound resonated across the hall drifted amongst the crowd.
"You… you dare hit me?"
Lu Hao covered his mouth, thinking he was in a dream while looking at Ye Lingchen with disbelief.
"Are you surprised? Is your head filled with a ringing sound?"
"You're stupefied? Can't believe that you're being slapped?" Ye Lingchen glowered at Lu Hao, raising his hand.
Smack!
Another slap!
A bright red mark of a palm imprinted deeply on Lu Hao's face.
"Weren't you very arrogant earlier? Where's your pride now?"
Smack!
"Weren't there only two options? You want me to choose now?"
Smack!
"Didn't you want to grant me a quick death? Are you still granting that now?"
Smack!
"Are you still great?"
Smack!
One by one, the continuous slaps sent Lu Hao into a daze.
His face was no longer human. Swollen and puffed up, like a pig's head.
The entire hall was quiet in deathly silence.
Nobody would have expected Ye Lingchen to be this crazy.
That was just… it renewed their worldview. Their brains dared not even process the thought.
"Ah!!!"
The pain in his cheek brought Lu Hao back to his senses.
He was hit!?
He was actually beaten!?
From his birth, he was never beaten once. Nobody even dared to pinch him hard!
His whole face contorted into an ugly expression, both eyes bloodshot.
The extreme humiliation and rage intersected, completely burning away at his sanity.
…
At the same time, within the Lin family mansion.
Lin Shanhe, Lin Ao, Lin Ruoyu and the rest of the Lin family members were gathered, anxiously waiting.

Grandmaster Jiang was also there. Given such a chance, he naturally had to carefully observe Ye Linghen's medical skills.
"What's the matter? Why is Grandmaster Ye still not here yet even though it's already this late?" questioned Lin Ruoyu. She was looking out of the door every now and then.
"Could it be that Grandmaster Ye is angry because of the previous incident?" asked Lin Shanhe in a worried tone with a scowl.
"Hehe, worry not. Since that little guy had promised to provide treatment for me, he will definitely come. My ability to appraise someone is not that rusty yet," Li Tianhua chuckled on the bed. His complexion was way better than before.
"But… dad, this issue involves your health. We must make sure everything is according to plan," Lin Ruoyu told her second uncle.
"Why not… I give him a call?" Lin Ao questioned the crowd.
After a momentary silence, Lin Shanhe gave a slight nod.
"That's all we can do. You must make sure your tone is respectful alright?"
…
Grand Capital Restaurant.
"Ah, ah, ah! You're dead! I'll have you live the rest of your life in regret! Just you wait, just you wait!"
Lu Hao went into a frenzy, his roaring sound sent a chill down everyone's body.
He looked at Ye Lingchen with only one thought in mind, that is to tear him to shreds, have him beg for death!
He was similarly bellowing like crazy internally, his entire body trembling.
"You sure have guts! Still so arrogant!"
Ye Lingchen snickered, once again raising his hand. Just as he was ready to slap, his phone rang.
An incoming call from an unknown number.
"Good evening, is this Grandmaster Ye?"
"You are… Lin Ao?" Ye Lingchen vaguely remembered this voice.
"Grandmaster Ye, it is indeed I," replied Lin Ao respectfully. That respect coming from the bottom of his heart.
Ye Lingchen not only saved his grandfather, but he was also a great fighter. Within the Warrior's Department, they always respected the strong. Ye Lingchen was younger than him, but his abilities had him deeply convinced.
"Grandmaster Ye, we have made an appointment for my grandfather's treatment. Do you still remember that?"
"Oh, I do remember. However, I have run into a little trouble here. I'm afraid I will be running late," replied Ye Lingchen calmly.
"Trouble? What kind of trouble? Perhaps I could be of assistance." Lin Ao was worried. He could not allow anything to delay his grandfather's treatment!
"I have some personal grudges with Lu Hao. I'm in the middle of settling it," replied Ye Lingchen.
"Lu Hao? Is it that Lu Hao from the Lu Group?"
"That's right, that's him."
"Grandmaster Ye, let me know your location. We will come over immediately to solve this issue for you," said Lin Ao without giving it any thought, as though it was just an inconsequential matter.
"I'm at the Grand Capital Restaurant."
"Alright! I'll be there in ten minutes!"
Lin Ao ended the call, and without any delays, explained the situation. He gathered some people and rushed towards Grand Capital Restaurant.
Grandmaster Ye was in trouble. That was the chance for the Lin family to show their worth!
The last time they annoyed Grandmaster Ye and they were still wondering how to make it up to him. Lu's family causing trouble for him was an excellent chance!
Ring ring ring—
Ye Lingchen barely ended the call, another phone started ringing.
This time, it was Lu Hao's phone.
Taking a look at the display screen, Lu Hao's face turned red from excitement. Tears uncontrollably flowed from his eyes.
"Hello, dad. I've suffered a beating!" complained Lu Hao with a voice filled with resentment and injustice.
"Where are you?" A low throaty sound came from the phone.
"I'm right at the Grand Capital Restaurant."
"I'll be there in ten minutes!"

Wander West, in Shadow
BOOK 1 COMPLETED A young wizard journeys west, through dark forests and dangerous lands, searching for something. Accompanied by a wild witch who has secrets of her own, they come across terrible creatures, hauntings, cursed villages, and memories from their past. Who else will they meet along their journey, and to find what he is looking for, how far will the wizard have to wander west? NOTE: The above synopsis is intentionally written to be as spoiler-free as possible. If you would like a more in-detail synopsis, one that contains minor spoilers, please check out the "Synopsis" chapter at the beginning of this fiction. If you read and enjoy, please leave a rating or review! FORMERLY TITLED: THE GLIMMERLING This story was formerly titled "The Glimmerling", because the first part was a short story of that title; it has since been expanded upon, thus the title change. Chapters 1-8 (30k words) are the first 'arc', if you want to get a feel for the story. To give some context on the setting: Magic is a bit weaker in this story than you might be used to, and we start off following some relatively new magic users. For some perspective, being able to light a campfire with magic is considered relatively advanced for someone who is the age of the main character. Magic can become very powerful - and there are some examples of powerful wizards within this story - but it's not where the main characters are yet. Part of the story is about following them as they learn more about magic. Enemies are also very dangerous, and running, hiding, or trying to talk their way out of a dangerous situation is often a better choice than fighting for the characters. While I have added tags for traumatizing content, sexuality, violence, swearing, etc. I try to avoid super-explicit descriptions of these things. But they are part of the story.

Modded Skyr*m: Real Life Edition
It seems that I died while I was playing VR Skyr*m. The next thing I knew, I was standing in front of the middle-aged man who called himself The Overlord of Dremora and Dragons. He told me they were releasing Skyr*m: Real-Life Edition. However, you have to be dead first to play it, and I was chosen as a 'beta tester' of sorts. I found myself in a semi-realistic (thanks to mods) world, and I want to have fun and relax for the rest of my life, and maybe get back to Earth. There's just a small *RAWR* problem. Setting: This happens within the world in The Legend of the Fake Hero, specifically two arcs from now. About: I am writing this for fun as a side project. I intend this to be semi-interactive as I will have polls where readers can influence the book's direction. I have the final say because I believe that too many cooks in the kitchen are not a good thing. The plan is to write it in parts that are around 1-2k words. Typically around every 3 to 6 parts, they will be combined into a finalized chapter and re-edited for a smoother read. Release schedule: When I feel like it. I'll be more inclined to write if there is more interaction, both in comments and polls, towards the story. However, I will be focusing on The Legend of the Fake Hero because that is something I own entirely and enjoy. I will try to do consistent uploads. Disclaimer: This work falls under fair use as it is a partial parity, does not affect the value of the original work, is an original story within the setting (within my setting), and is not being sold. All IP belongs to their respective owners (including myself). Currently uploading on Scribble Hub and Royal Road under the same username.

Shattered Realms - A Pathfinder/D&D game
Broke adventurers looking for a quick and easy paycheck are thrust together as circumstances around them get weirder and weirder. Authors note: This is an ongoing Pathfinder (DnD) game, which will inevitably contain references to other works due to the nature of nerds. Chapters will be random lengths, mostly as long as a game session and depending on how much I can embelish it. Also, some details may change retroactively to maintain consistency. I'm not going to write it as LitRPG, mostly because that's extra work. I'd rather the flow of the story not be interrupted by numbers. I am aiming for updates within a week or two of the game session, which will usually be weekly. Finally, there is a light swearing, gore and sexual references warning. I will update this warning if needed, but will also not write in anything that's too graphic or irrelevant to the story.
