Qin Luo immediately started showering compliments.
【Loyalty Value +5】
Heh.
Su Muwan, although inwardly pleased with the flattery, still glared at Qin Luo and said, "Qin Luo, let me tell you, this time you and I are representing the Su Family to attend the auction."
"Since we're going, we can't afford to lose in terms of momentum, understand?"
Su Muwan thought, before I was pushed to the brink, I endured in every possible way.
Now that I've been thoroughly provoked, what do I have to endure for?
Qin Luo nodded upon hearing this and replied, "Understood."
"But I heard that all the top families in Jiang City, along with the upper-class families, have all come."
"Even some old ancestors, who are on the verge of death, have gotten up excitedly to come in person."
Su Muwan frowned upon hearing this.
There are four top families in Jiang City.
They are: the Su Family, the Jiang Family, the Situ Family, and the Song Family.
Among them, Jiang Xueqi of the Jiang Family and Situ Rufeng of the Situ Family are childhood sweethearts, and the relationship between these two families is the best.
As for the Song Family, they have always maintained a neutral stance.
Overall.
Su Muwan pouted, so it's just my Su Family being isolated, huh.
But it doesn't matter.
Su Muwan sneered disdainfully, "Just a few small families, the Su Family alone can suppress them!"
Qin Luo blinked upon hearing this, is this the confidence of a major villain?
"As expected of the young lady!"
"Hmph!"
....
...
The Antique City Fair.
The Divine Physician Charity Auction, inside the venue.
The place was already bustling with noise.
Representatives from all major families had come to attend the auction.
Because of the Divine Physician's reputation.
So, one by one, the old ancestors of the various families, who had long retired from the public eye, were also pushed in wheelchairs by their descendants to attend.
"Wow! Situ Tian of the Situ Family! He, who had long retired, actually came?!"
"No, look at him, covered in tubes, even breathing with an oxygen tank, clearly on the verge of death, here to seek a lifeline!"
"Tsk tsk, never thought that the Situ Family, one of the four top families in Jiang City, is now at a critical juncture."
"Indeed, it's still the Su Family's Su Ba who is strong, ever since his recovery, the Su Family's influence has been unstoppable!"
"Hey, you weren't at the Lin Family's old master's birthday banquet last time, you don't know the scene where Su Ba and Su Muwan suppressed the Dragon King Palace, it was spectacular!"
"I heard, apparently, the current Dragon King Palace's Dragon King was thrown into the Jiang Sea to feed the sharks!"
"Tsk tsk, as expected of Su Muwan, I wonder if the Su Family will come."
"I have insider information, Su Muwan has offended Jiang Xueqi, this Divine Physician clearly sides with the Jiang Family, the Su Family probably... won't dare to come."
Situ Yun, the head of the Situ Family, pushed Situ Tian into his seat.
His expression was grave; the reason his Situ Family could become one of the top families in Jiang City was actually due to his father.
But unfortunately, his father's talent was inferior to Su Ba, stopping at the initial stage of the Peak Realm.
Now... he could only rely on medicine to prolong his life.
However, this time...
Situ Yun looked at an old man in a white robe sitting in the first row.
The Divine Physician!
As the Divine Physician, he would occasionally hold charity auctions in a certain city.
At that time, everyone could bid to invite him to make a move.
But he also had a rule: the patient must be present.
So, Situ Yun had no choice but to move his father from the sickbed onto a wheelchair and bring him here.
In fact, he didn't need to be so troublesome.
But unfortunately...
He looked at his son, Situ Rufeng, by his side.
The latter's expression was grave; previously, he had found an opportunity to send Situ Rufeng to befriend Wang Yong, the Divine Physician's disciple, who was by Jiang Xueqi's side.
But unfortunately, Situ Rufeng didn't seize the chance and seemed to have fallen out with Jiang Xueqi.
There was no other way; for the Situ Family, he could only mobilize the entire family's wealth.
Situ Tian... couldn't die!
In the front.
"Xueqi, don't sit there alone, talk to Wang Yong and Feng Yueke."
Jiang Hao, the head of the Jiang Family, said helplessly to Jiang Xueqi, who had a sullen face.
Jiang Xueqi glanced at Wang Yong, who had become even more effeminate and weak overnight, and felt extremely disgusted. She disdainfully said, "I won't!"
"I've given Wang Yong too many chances before, but he didn't cherish them, each time making me lose face in front of Su Muwan!"
Feng Yueke, upon hearing this, immediately became angry and said, "It's clearly you who provoked Su Muwan, how dare you say that."
Why is this poisonous woman so bad, always shifting the blame onto others.
"What??"
Jiang Xueqi, upon hearing this, was so angry that her silver teeth clenched.
What do you mean I provoked Su Muwan?
Please! It was Su Muwan who sent someone to snatch the vase she had reserved, that's how the grudge started, okay!
Thinking this, Jiang Xueqi was about to curse back when.
Wang Yong, with a delicate gesture, nervously said, "You two, stop arguing."
"My master has already ordered Su Ba to bring Su Muwan and her follower to come and kowtow to apologize."
Upon hearing this.
Jiang Hao, the head of the Jiang Family, looked at the Divine Physician in surprise and whispered, "Divine Physician, is this... appropriate? After all, Su Ba has recovered, his cultivation is..."
Before he finished.
The Divine Physician stroked his long white beard and smiled, shaking his head, "Jiang Family Head, you underestimate me too much and overestimate Su Ba."
"He was able to recover entirely because of me, if he doesn't give face to his savior..."
"Hehe, just think about it, what kind of reputation would he have in the martial arts world? At his level, the most important thing is face."
"So..."
The Divine Physician's expression showed great confidence and pride: "The Su Family will give me this face!"
Seeing the Divine Physician say so.
Jiang Hao didn't speak further, then felt even more admiration; fortunately, he had arranged for his daughter to have an engagement with Wang Yong.
This way, it was equivalent to tying down a Divine Physician!
And when Jiang Xueqi heard the Divine Physician say that, her eyes lit up.
She turned to look at Wang Yong, the disgust in her eyes instantly disappearing: "Wang Yong, is your master really that powerful? Then my constitution..."
Wang Yong, seeing this, also pursed his lips and said with a smile, "My master's medical skills are even better than mine, if my master treats you, your constitution will definitely be cured!"
"Don't worry, after the auction ends, I'll ask my master to treat you."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xueqi felt even more at ease.
She suddenly felt that Wang Yong wasn't so annoying anymore.
And Feng Yueke looked very unhappy.
Brother... why are you like this...
Time passed.
Families continued to arrive.
But...
The auction still hadn't started.
Jiang Hao frowned, he signaled to the auction staff.
The latter hurried over: "Sir, what can I do for you?"
"Aren't all the people here? And it's already a minute past the start time, where are your people? Why hasn't it started yet?"
Jiang Hao showed displeasure; what was Long Dingtian doing?
Didn't we agree to start on time?
The Divine Physician, however, didn't care and shook his head, having cultivated his temperament for many years, naturally not getting angry over such a small matter.
Moreover, today was an important day, a day for him to accumulate merit by saving the world.
Naturally, he wouldn't quibble over such a small matter.
So he looked kindly at the staff and said with a smile, "Young man, go back and tell the person in charge that this is the Divine Physician's charity auction, then he'll understand."
Hehe, Long Dingtian's Antique City Fair, interesting, too bad, your father has to call me Master.
The staff nodded: "Okay, I'll tell the president."
The Divine Physician nodded with a smile, then looked at Jiang Hao, who was a bit frustrated: "Jiang Family Head, you still need to cultivate your temperament more, you can't get angry over such a small matter, which in traditional Chinese medicine, will put a great burden on your body."
Jiang Hao, upon hearing this, forced a smile and nodded: "You're right, Divine Physician."
I'm doing this for you, old man...

+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!

't think I'm that capable, I'm just trying my best to stay alive. I've been kind all my life, never did anything bad, yet worldly suffering spared me not one bit. The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life. A kind young man, who wanted to just get by singing, but through repeated deceits and betrayals, has gone down an irredeemable path.

u serious?" Chen Feng watched helplessly as his painstakingly trained disciple, fresh off a championship victory, publicly abandoned him. "You had your chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie! I see extraordinary bone structure in you—a martial arts prodigy, one in ten thousand." The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
