Shangguan Chuxue's villa.
The voice of War God Teng Ao echoed here: "That's the situation."
"I've successfully infiltrated Su Muwan's camp. Her goal is simple—she wants to unify the underworld faster than Song Ming!"
Upon hearing this.
"Oh?"
"Interesting."
"You mean Su Muwan has decided to expedite the consolidation of the four major underworld factions in Jiangcheng?"
"Did she already succeed in taking over the northern underworld tonight?"
Shangguan Chuxue leisurely trimmed the branches of flowers and plants.
Her lips curled slightly.
A hint of mockery flashed in her eyes.
Heh, how laughable.
Su Muwan, I thought you were smarter. Did you really think that by doing this, those underworld figures would genuinely obey your commands?
For Shangguan Chuxue, there has never been any concept of trust.
Only by... firmly controlling the other party's life.
Only then can she feel at ease.
As she thought this.
Snap.
She reached out, casually snapped off a piece of green leaf, and then gently shook it.
Sss!
A small red centipede slowly crawled out from among the leaves.
"To make them obey, certain measures must be taken," Shangguan Chuxue said calmly, then picked up the red centipede and gently stroked its back.
Sss!
The centipede made a soft sound, as if responding to its master's caress.
Behind Shangguan Chuxue.
The group of black-robed figures shuddered upon seeing the centipede, their eyes filled with an inexplicable fear.
[Gu Centipede]!!
The centipede in Shangguan Chuxue's hand was a mother worm.
Once the master feeds the centipede a drop of their blood, it can spawn a baby worm.
Then, the baby worm will continuously burrow through the skin of the host until it reaches the heart.
The host, unable to harm the mother worm, will have their life controlled by Shangguan Chuxue.
A brutally cruel method of controlling others!
And all of them... each has one inside their bodies!
The centipede crawled up Shangguan Chuxue's finger and onto her hand.
Shangguan Chuxue's lips curved slightly as she softly said, "Teng Ao, I have something to give you."
"Soon, one of my subordinates will come to you."
"At that time, follow my instructions and place the item I give you... on the leaders of the four major underworld factions."
As she spoke, Shangguan Chuxue, seemingly to ensure Teng Ao's obedience, spoke kindly: "Teng Ao, I won't hide it from you."
"This is a dangerous venomous worm that can control someone's life."
"Be careful not to get it inside you."
On the other end of the line.
Teng Ao's voice was touched: "Alright, Shangguan, you truly are my best friend."
"Of course, once we deal with Su Muwan this vixen, you bring Wen Yu to the royal city."
"I'll arrange your wedding."
"Great!"
Click.
The call ended.
Shangguan Chuxue's expression also became quite meaningful.
Su Muwan, you'll never expect...
How badly you'll lose!
...
...
The Foundation.
Click.
The call ended.
Teng Ao looked at Qin Luo beside him: "Brother Luo, that's the situation."
"Mhm."
Qin Luo nodded slightly.
His fingers moved slightly, and he seemed to understand.
No wonder Shangguan Chuxue's forces are so strong.
So there's a Gu Centipede that can burrow into people's hearts.
Interesting.
Hmm, I wonder if my innate affinity will work on it...
But before that.
Qin Luo looked at the crowd in the Foundation hall.
Teng Ao, Jiang Zixuan, Huang Lingfeng, Huang Lingyu, Shen Fei, Zhu Lan, Little Qing, and a group of underlings.
He smiled slightly: "Everyone, you've worked hard these past three days."
"Teng Ao, Jiang Zixuan, Zhu Lan, each take a team."
"These three days, lead your teams to the east, west, and south districts. The locations I've sent to you in picture format."
"If there's no problem, start the operation."
Zhu Lan glanced at the picture on her phone.
It was extremely simple.
It read.
Wang Laohu of the West District will be at the Star Gathering KTV private room tomorrow at 9 AM.
Feng Dan of the West District will get off at the intersection of Auspicious Road No. 9 tomorrow at 10:11 AM.
West District...
East District...
???
What's this?
Zhu Lan was a bit confused.
What is this?
A death note?
Moreover, although Qin Luo knows divination, how could he be so accurate?
Even down to the minute?
Tch, he must have just guessed randomly, I don't believe it.
...
...
Three days later.
In an alley in the East District, dark and gloomy.
"Sss! Sss!"
"Crazy! Absolutely crazy!!"
"Damn, no matter where I hide, they're always there!"
A crew-cut man kept fleeing through the alley.
His eyes were filled with terror, his expression shocked.
He was the founder of Jiangcheng's largest underworld group in the West District—Budong Ming.
However, once glorious, he was now like someone who had encountered something extremely terrifying, darting about.
Huff... Huff...
Budong Ming swallowed hard, glanced around, and confirmed no one was following him.
Only then did he gradually calm down and let out a breath.
His eyes were filled with shock.
Three days!
No one knows what happened in these three days!
Except!
The underworld factions!!
Too fast! It was simply too fast!
In just three days, Su Muwan's people swarmed like locusts!
One by one, they kidnapped all the major and minor underworld bosses in Jiangcheng's four districts!
And the speed, the efficiency, was incredibly high!
It was as if they had installed surveillance on them!
One underworld boss had just gotten off the car, adjusted his belt, and the next second, he was bagged and taken away.
The bodyguards didn't even react.
This situation left all underworld factions in a state of panic.
Especially since they had heard that the northern underworld had already been consolidated!
So they realized that Su Muwan's goal was likely to unify Jiangcheng's underworld before the recently released Song Ming!
But!
What can you gain from doing this?
You can only get a bunch of unfaithful backstabbers!
What are you aiming for?
Not long ago, Budong Ming's group had been invaded by Su Muwan's people.
Fortunately, he had the foresight to escape through the back door.
This was how he avoided a calamity.
"Phew..."
He lit a cigarette, closed his eyes, and leaned against the wall, slowly raising his head.
Sigh...
First, get out of the city and lie low...
But...
As he raised his head.
He saw.
A group of people standing on the wall, all staring at him.
Jiang Zixuan opened the intercom and said, "Exactly as Brother Luo said, Budong Ming ran into the alley."
"We'll bring him back right away."
Budong Ming: ???
What?!
Clink!
The cigarette fell to the ground.
Budong Ming's pupils contracted.
Are you gods?!
How could you predict this?!
And what followed.
Made Budong Ming feel as if his facial features were being crushed.
After a period of time.
Budong Ming was brought to a Foundation in the central area of Jiangcheng.
There, he met the "Brother Luo" that these people had been talking about.
"Brother Luo, we're all here."
"This is the last one."
Jiang Zixuan respectfully threw Budong Ming to the ground.
The latter looked up.
He saw.
A man dressed in a black trench coat, wearing black leather gloves, with an elegant and gentle expression, smiling as he walked over.
Qin Luo looked at the last underworld boss on the ground, looking up at him.
He stepped forward.
Squatted down.
Smack!!
In the other's bewildered gaze.
He gave the man a hard slap.
Then, Qin Luo smiled kindly: "Welcome to the Emperor Foundation."
"This is the initiation ceremony."
As he spoke, Qin Luo extended two fingers and smiled: "Now you have two choices."
"One, I'll cripple your limbs."
"Two, my young lady will throw you into the Jiang Sea to feed the sharks."
"Three, I'll cripple your limbs, then my young lady will throw you into the Jiang Sea to feed the sharks."
"Four, choose to join us."
Budong Ming: ???
What?!
Do I have a choice?! And are these two choices?!
Damn it!! Damn it!! Damn it!!
So it's Su Muwan's vicious scheme!!
Inwardly, Budong Ming cursed, but!
On the surface, he still put on a humble appearance, saying: "I... join..."
Su Muwan, don't be hasty, this time we were caught off guard.
But!
Once we unite... we'll definitely...
[Congratulations to the master for consolidating the Budong Group!]
【The Effect of Supreme Command Activates!】
What the... huh?
Budong Ming was slightly taken aback.
Why did it suddenly feel... less infuriating?
Qin Luo listened to the system prompt in his mind and stood up, waving his hand to signal the men to take the person away.
He smiled faintly.
By now, his side had already set the stage quite well.
Within Rakshasa Palace, Su Bailian would handle the internal affairs.
As for the four major districts in the east, west, north, and south, Shangguan Chuxue would help him relay misleading information to Song Ming.
Next...
Qin Luo's eyes revealed a subtle glimmer.
He calculated with his fingers.
Hmm.
What comes next is... a grand carnival of the underworld.
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia
lanned to earn money steadily and take life at a slower pace. But he never expected... his father's remarriage, and the stepmother bringing along a dependent, would completely disrupt his life's plans...
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
