After some hesitation, Ma Qun ultimately decided to tell Lin Fan the truth.
Why? Because Lin Fan could handle it?
No!
Because Lin Fan was not only the Dragon King of the Dragon King Hall but also his direct superior.
After a short while.
Lin Fan went from initial disdain to complete confusion, and then to utter shock.
This was absolutely ridiculous!
He had been thinking about how to weaken the Xu Family.
But now, not only had they not been weakened, but they had also been supercharged and strengthened. How the hell was he supposed to deal with this?
He was ready to unleash his ultimate move!
A one-hit KO!
Or rather, a one-hit disaster!
What more was there to say?
"Damn it! This Xu Mo and the Xu Family have gone too far!"
Lin Fan couldn't help but curse.
What the hell!
He started with a pair of straw sandals.
Xu Mo started with a full set of divine gear.
How the hell was he supposed to compete? Was this a game of Snake?
Ma Qun kept his eyes, nose, and mouth in check, maintaining his composure like an old monk in deep meditation.
He paid no attention to the chaos outside.
There really wasn't much to say at this point.
After venting his frustration, Lin Fan picked up his phone again.
"Is what you said true?"
A hundred billion dollars invested in crude oil bonds.
Standing on the brink of a crude oil price crash.
Even a pig could take off.
^(*￣(oo)￣)^
Saying that might even be an insult to pigs.
A propeller could fly, and even without a propeller, they could still fly.
As long as no other major oil fields were discovered.
Those who bought the bonds.
Would all take off.
This move was too cunning.
Where did the Xu Family get such confidence?
To dare to invest all their money in bonds.
And they ended up making a fortune.
It was as if they could predict the future.
Lin Fan might even start to believe it.
After all, this was just too unbelievable.
Or perhaps the backend departments of big companies and corporations were incredibly powerful.
With so many talents.
Spending some resources to predict the stock market trends wasn't impossible.
"I went through hell to get this intel, and you're still doubting it? Fine, don't believe it then!"
Li Jiaxin's tone was hostile.
To Lin Fan, it felt like she was just looking for trouble.
"Hahaha—since Burning Angel herself said so, and I'm not an unreasonable person, you did a great job with this!"
Lin Fan laughed.
Better to believe it than not.
What if it was true?
This intel was indeed explosive.
If it weren't for Li Jiaxin's information.
He wouldn't have known how long the Xu Family planned to keep this under wraps.
Although there wasn't much he could do to counter the Xu Family now.
At least he could start preparing.
No matter what, Burning Angel was a valuable informant.
If she were gone.
It would be a significant loss.
If she really had any intentions of betrayal.
Lin Fan could always have the Angel of Slaughter take her out.
"I've been in Magic City for a while now, and I've been meaning to take you out for a meal. Are you free today?"
Lin Fan persisted.
One thing at a time.
He still needed to meet her face-to-face!
"Dragon King, I'm really busy!"
On the other end of the phone, Li Jiaxin's tone was now extremely annoyed.
This Dragon King.
Kept pushing her patience to the limit.
Did he really think her head was made of dough???
"What could you possibly be so busy with?"
Lin Fan was puzzled.
'Ah~~~~~~~~~~~'
Then came the sound of a woman's scream.
It was a seductive and alluring voice.
Those who knew, knew!
Lin Fan's face turned green.
I sent you to work as a mole.
And you're out there chasing skirts?
What the hell!!!!
He couldn't believe it!
As the Dragon King of the Dragon King Hall.
He didn't even live as freely as Li Jiaxin.
"Burning Angel, you're really crossing the line here."
Lin Fan said in a displeased tone.
Damn it, eating meat without inviting me?
Things had been going badly for him lately.
Lin Fan was already feeling unbalanced.
Especially with all the top-tier beauties he had his eyes on.
Always hanging around Xu Mo.
He didn't know why.
Ever since he returned to the country.
All he got was the scraps.
Who wouldn't be pissed off by that?
Although he didn't care too much.
But it was always the same, and it was starting to get old, wasn't it?
"Dragon King, this is my personal matter. I've already finished my work. It's all clearly written in the contract. You can check it yourself."
"If there's nothing else, don't call me and disturb me. I'm afraid Xu Mo might get the wrong idea-------------"
"------------He sometimes comes into the office to check on things. If he sees us talking, we'll be exposed."
"Alright, that's it for now."
Beep beep beep------------
The call ended.
Leaving Lin Fan standing there, dazed and confused.
Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
After the philosophical triple questions.
Lin Fan finally snapped back to reality.
Something about Burning Angel's words felt off.
There was something strange about it.
But he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.
On the other side.
Li Jiaxin was fearless.
This was bound to come out eventually.
She was just buying time.
Like using a plunger.
To temporarily shut Lin Fan's foul mouth.
This way, she could buy herself more time to slack off at work.

ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force!

With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
