Su Han was stunned. Gu Lingfei and Qiangwei had both been kidnapped by thugs?
How was that possible!
Gu Lingfei was at the LingChe Group in Dragon Country, while Qiangwei was with the Wolf Fang Mercenary Corps in the distant United States. They were worlds apart!
"Monkey! If you’re messing with me again, I’ll twist your head off!"
Monkey: "..."
Damn it, good thing he had already seen through Su Han’s true colors and switched sides. Otherwise, he’d still be trailing behind Su Han, eating cheap sausages!
"Wolf King, I’m not lying. After hearing that you returned to Dragon Country, Miss Qiangwei resigned from her position as deputy leader of the Wolf Fang Mercenary Corps and followed you back. Now, she’s been kidnapped."
Monkey wasn’t worried. After all, this devious plan was his gift to Jiang Che.
Though Su Han often scolded him, he trusted Monkey deeply, calling it some kind of test.
Test my ass.
"Qiangwei came to Dragon Country?"
Su Han’s heart sank. How could she have returned?
"How could Qiangwei come back? I haven’t even won over Gu Lingfei yet. What if Feifei finds out she’s here for me?"
In a fit of anger, Su Han blurted out his thoughts.
Though he did like Bai Qiangwei, he had to prioritize. Gu Lingfei was his chosen leading lady!
Leading lady > supporting lady.
What Su Han didn’t know was that his entire conversation with Monkey was being shared with Jiang Che—and Bai Qiangwei herself was listening!
Qiangwei was momentarily stunned. Did Su Han see her as... a burden?
A hindrance to his pursuit of Gu Lingfei?
A wave of bitter sorrow welled up in the young woman’s heart. She truly couldn’t compare to Gu Lingfei.
......
"Boss! This isn’t the time for that. The problem is... both Gu Lingfei and Miss Qiangwei have been kidnapped. The kidnappers are demanding a ransom of 1 million, and they’ll only release one! What do we do?"
"Then go gather the money!" Su Han panicked. From Monkey’s tone... this didn’t seem like a joke!
Could they really have been kidnapped?
"Monkey, I need to talk to the kidnappers!"
Su Han had a shred of intelligence, but unfortunately, only a shred.
"No problem, Wolf King. You must save Miss Qiangwei. She’s the younger sister of the old Wolf King!" Monkey began pressuring Su Han.
The actors were already in place—Monkey’s professionalism was truly impressive.
"Are you Su Han? I have two women here—Gu Lingfei and Bai Qiangwei. I’ll give you one chance to choose. You can save one. The other... hehehe, don’t blame us."
"Who the hell are you?"
Su Han’s emotions were unraveling. He knew... this had to be someone from his past coming for revenge. After so many years as a mercenary, he had made countless enemies.
"That’s none of your concern. All you need to do is make a choice! Pick one, and we’ll let her go. The other... hehehe, you know what’ll happen!"
Su Han fell silent for a moment. "Let me hear their voices. I need to know they’re safe."
Jiang Che smirked and snapped his fingers.
Soon, Gu Lingfei’s voice echoed through.
"No... no, please! Help me, I’m going to die—"
It was unmistakably Gu Lingfei’s voice, raw and genuine—secretly recorded by Jiang Che.
"Let Feifei go! I choose Feifei! Let her go!"
The moment Su Han heard Gu Lingfei’s cries for help, his heart shattered into pieces. All rationality was gone.
He didn’t even ask about Bai Qiangwei, immediately choosing Gu Lingfei!
On the other side, nestled in Jiang Che’s arms, Qiangwei trembled slightly. Though she no longer held any affection for Su Han, they had spent seven or eight years together.
Seven or eight years of companionship, all those times she called him "Brother Su Han"—none of it could compare to Gu Lingfei!
The disappointment was indescribable.
"Oh? Su Han... are you really giving up on Qiangwei?"
Jiang Che’s voice carried a hint of amusement.
"I... I..." Su Han was at a loss.
Suddenly, he thought of Monkey!
"Monkey, quickly find the kidnappers’ location. I’ll go save them myself!"
But Su Han had no idea that his good friend Monkey had already been bought off by Jiang Che!
Monkey feigned difficulty. "Wolf King, I can’t find it!"
"Useless! What good are you?"
Su Han erupted in helpless rage, berating Monkey over the phone.
Monkey: "..."
"Enough! You’ll never find me! You can only choose one—Gu Lingfei or Qiangwei. I’ll give you one minute. If you don’t choose... I’ll take both. Hehehe—"
Su Han hesitated.
Jiang Che decided to pile on the pressure!
He whispered something into Qiangwei’s ear.
After a moment of thought, the young woman made her decision.
"Brother Su Han!!! Save me... they’re going to hurt me. Save me... sob sob!"
Qiangwei’s acting was truly top-notch.
Su Han was completely panicked. "Qiangwei..."
On one side was Gu Lingfei, and on the other was Bai Qiangwei. Deep down, he wanted to save Gu Lingfei, but Qiangwei was Bai Tianhuai’s sister. He couldn’t just watch her fall into danger.
"10, 9, 8..." Jiang Che continued the countdown, pushing Su Han to the brink of madness!
Though Bai Qiangwei was deeply disappointed in Su Han, she still hoped to awaken even a shred of his feelings for her, crying out desperately.
"Let Qiangwei go..."
Su Han was about to say, "Let Qiangwei go."
But Jiang Che played another recording of Gu Lingfei’s voice. "Help me!"
Gu Lingfei’s cries completely overwhelmed Su Han. "Let Feifei go! Release Gu Lingfei now!"
In the final second, Su Han chose Gu Lingfei!
At the same moment, Qiangwei’s face turned pale. Nestled in Jiang Che’s arms, her shoulders trembled slightly.
She had thought... Su Han would at least save her out of respect for her brother.
But reality had slapped her hard. The six or seven years they had spent together, her brother’s mentorship of Su Han—none of it could compare to one woman.
How laughable it all was!

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it.

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
