Trillionaire's Slice of Life-Chapter 1193 - 747: Geniuses and Ordinary People_2
Chapter 1193 -747: Geniuses and Ordinary People_2
Chu Mo looked at the young boy’s behavior; all he could do was let out a helpless sigh. Then, as he walked past him, he said:
“The best way to overcome fear is to face it head-on. If you can’t even bring yourself to look at me, how can you hope to conquer your fear.”
Chu Mo left the dining hall, and only when his figure disappeared from Tang Yi’s sight did the trembling boy slowly regain his composure.
Meanwhile, the crisp sound of chatter grew louder. As Chu Mo stepped out of the hall, he immediately saw several vibrant young figures chatting and laughing with each other.
Across the way, Qin Ning was holding Wu Youyou’s hand, seemingly wishing to continue some competition with her, but Wu Youyou, with a helpless expression, kept shaking her head in refusal.
And Qin Lan looked curiously at the young mistress of the Xue family, Xue Yuluo. Both girls possessed flawless beauty, and what’s most important was that despite their youthful appearance of around eighteen or nineteen years of age, they were both bona fide Great Grandmasters—with one at the middle rank and the other an even more formidable upper rank Great Grandmaster.
Chu Mo had just steadied himself when he felt another presence by his side. Turning his head, he discovered that the figure of Tianya had appeared next to him at some unknown time.
As a Half-step Celestial God, Tianya had made a resolute decision to remain steadfastly by Chu Mo’s side for the remaining ten years of his life, always ready to serve, all for the chance of receiving casual guidance from Chu Mo.
Although Tianya was already one hundred and thirty-seven years old, a true centenarian, his countenance remained at the age of around twenty-six or twenty-seven. If he did not speak, based solely on appearance, he would seem even younger than Chu Mo. However, only a handful of people knew; besides Chu Mo who possessed the system and the reckless Xue family’s patriarch, he was the actual strongest being in the world.
“Mr. Chu!”
The voice, filled with reverence, belonged to the aged Tianya, who bowed deeply in respect, while Chu Mo, with a complicated expression in his eyes, simply took a soft breath. This time, he did not say much, just nodded slightly.
Chu Mo knew very well that having an unparalleled warrior like Tianya by his side was not favorable for keeping secrets, for he might notice something. But since the other party was stubbornly resolved, there was nothing Chu Mo could do about it.

Moreover, Chu Mo once thought he had plenty of Godly Wealth Points to spare, even extravagantly spending five thousand points to acquire mastery-level culinary skills. However, after the fight with Xue family’s patriarch, the expenditure of tens of thousands of Godly Wealth Points at once made him understand that he must not waste his points recklessly.
Chu Mo had made up his mind—to only use Godly Wealth Points when absolutely necessary, never to squander them carelessly.
And having Tianya at his side, should Chu Mo face any provocation or danger, with Tianya’s strength as a Half-step Celestial God, there shouldn’t be much in this vast world that could trouble him. With Tianya lending his hand, Chu Mo would also be able to save unnecessary consumption of Godly Wealth Points.
This was a matter that Chu Mo had carefully considered the previous night. Therefore, he wasn’t the slightest bit unhappy about Tianya’s presence now, nor was there any warm welcome, only a calm and slight nod of his head.
As Chu Mo and Tianya appeared, the four girls across the way also took note of him, with Wu Youyou running over first to greet him. This young girl was Chu Mo’s most loyal follower and one of the first to believe in Chu Mo’s strength. With previous polishing by Qin Lan and help from Tianya, she had cultivated to the verge of the Grandmaster realm. Her strength was formidable, and more importantly, she was practicing the mysterious Nine Revolutions Divine Technique. If she dissipated her power just before reaching Grandmaster each time for nine cycles, she could directly break through the Heavenly Barrier and advance to the upper level of Great Grandmaster.
“Mr. Chu, you were really too cool last night. Even though I wasn’t at the scene, that final blow of yours really shocked everyone.”
As Chu Mo’s most loyal little fan, Wu Youyou was utterly in admiration of Chu Mo’s battle against the Xue family’s patriarch last night. Seeing Chu Mo now, she was visibly thrilled.
Chu Mo reached out to pat Wu Youyou on the head. Such an intimate gesture, if done by anyone else, would doubtlessly provoke Wu Youyou’s chagrin or even lead to a fight, but facing Chu Mo, this seventeen or eighteen-year-old rebellious girl had not a trace of dissatisfaction. Instead, her beautiful little face was covered with a look of blissful enjoyment.
Chu Mo’s gaze moved past Wu Youyou, settling on the girl named Qin Ning.
She, too, was in the flower of her youth, not much different in age from the young mistress of the Xue family. However, her strength was not as formidable as Xue Yuluo’s, merely that of an A-rank Martial Artist.
Of course, if we exclude the defiance of the heavens that is Xue Yuluo, in truth, the girl named Qin Ning, being able to reach such a level at this age, is already considered exceptionally gifted.
After all, among the four girls here, Wu Youyou, although a half-step Grandmaster, only achieved such a level because of the instruction and guidance from Qin Lan and Tianya. Normally, in fact, Wu Youyou would have just reached A-level.
As for Qin Lan, though she appears to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, it is only because she practices a unique cultivation technique. In fact, her age might already be in the tens, and Chu Mo wouldn’t be surprised if she was over a hundred years old.
Therefore, putting aside those monstrous existences, a little girl like Qin Ning represents a normal cultivation speed.
Indeed, just like the young boy in the restaurant, as Chu Mo’s gaze moved toward her, the originally smiling Qin Ning immediately became serious, her whole person turning tense and at a loss.
Just as Qin Ning started to tremble, Xue Yuluo who was by her side suddenly stepped forward, approaching the other and then voluntarily took Qin Ning’s small hand. As Xue Yuluo’s incredibly pure Innate True Qi soothed her, Qin Ning’s trembling body slowly recovered some calm.
Chu Mo’s eyes slightly brightened as he voluntarily addressed the young lady of the Xue family:
“How is it, have you found a way to treat the inner fears of the two of them?”
As Chu Mo spoke softly, the body of Xue Yuluo opposite him unconsciously tensed up for a moment.
Although she is indeed a high-ranking Great Grandmaster, a supremely strong being, she also clearly remembers the world-shattering attack from Chu Mo the night before. The final strike Chu Mo launched, that terrifying black hole, was definitely not a force of this world. That kind of terrifying power, just a hint of it, could easily kill her.
It is precisely because of the clear understanding of the disparity between them that Xue Yuluo has put aside all thoughts. She didn’t choose to flee because she knew it was pointless to do so; similarly, she didn’t seek revenge knowing it would be no different from throwing her life away.
Xue Yuluo knows that the only way to survive from the hands of this legendary powerhouse is to comply, without the slightest possibility of defiance.
So, at this moment, Xue Yuluo has completely let go of all emotions in her heart, speaking very calmly and earnestly:
“The only way to overcome the seed of inner fear is to confront the fear head-on. However, it is also very easy to lose oneself in the abyss of fear. Once lost, there is no possibility of return.”
At this time, Xue Yuluo couldn’t help but recall the fear she had faced in the boundless darkness. She didn’t even know how long she had stayed in that dark world; it might have been an instant, or maybe hundreds or even thousands of years, and it was this feeling of not knowing anything that was the scariest.
Even for Xue Yuluo, originally a peak middle-ranking Great Grandmaster, it took the firmness of her will and the guidance of the elder of her family to overcome the fear. As for Qin Ning and Tang Yi in front of her, their strength itself is very minimal, making overcoming their fears an extremely difficult challenge.
After taking a deep breath, with a hint of solemnity in her eyes, Xue Yuluo spoke gravely:
“For the two of them to overcome their fears, they must take it step by step, and it is absolutely impossible to achieve easily. What they need to do first is to get as close as possible to the source of their fear, which is Mr. Chu.
When one day they can stand by Mr. Chu’s side without any discomfort, then we can consider it a great success.”
After Xue Yuluo finished speaking, Chu Mo sighed softly, knowing that this matter was not simple, but it now seemed even more difficult than he had thought.
“However, I do have a method, it’s just that I don’t know if Mr. Chu would like to give it a try!”
