One week later.
A major piece of news spread among the top families of Jiang City.
And that was...
The head of the Su family... Su Ba!! Was once again seriously ill!
As everyone knows.
Previously, rumors of Su Ba's illness had already caused various factions to stir with ambition.
It's well known that the Su family's businesses span the globe. If one could take even a bite from it,
A small family could rise to become a first-class family, and a first-class family could ascend to become a top family!
However, Su Ba's subsequent healthy appearance caused everyone to abandon the idea of swallowing up the Su family.
In a secret meeting room.
The heads of various families in Jiang City sat nervously on both sides of the long table, the atmosphere so heavy it felt like the air was about to solidify.
At the head of the table sat the head of the Jiang family, Jiang Hao, who looked around.
Almost all the families in Jiang City that weren't affiliated with the Su family had gathered here.
He spoke gravely: "Gentlemen, I'm sure you've all heard the rumors about Su Ba's deteriorating health again?"
Upon hearing this.
A family head, looking concerned, asked: "Of course, we've heard it. But didn't similar rumors circulate before? In the end, they were all false."
"Yes, these rumors are spreading everywhere, and we can't tell which one is true."
"There's even a rumor that Su Muwan killed a Peak Master with a single palm strike. Isn't that absurd?"
"Exactly, Su Ba is already a monster from the previous generation, reaching the late stage of Peak Master. What is Su Muwan?"
"Jiang Family Head, did you call us here because you have definite news?"
The family heads all inquired.
Jiang Hao nodded slightly, his eyes darkening as he said: "Naturally, I have definite news."
"Do you know about the Rakshasa Palace?"
Rakshasa Palace?!
The family heads exchanged glances.
They naturally knew about the Rakshasa Palace, which had been making waves recently.
The Rakshasa King, Song Ming, had just been released from prison and declared war on all the underworld. His first target was undoubtedly the underworld of Jiang City!
But... what does that have to do with him?
Jiang Hao continued: "The current spokesperson of the Song family has revealed a key piece of information to me."
"And that is... Su Ba... has been poisoned by them and the leader of the Black Dragon Organization, rendering him powerless!"
Upon hearing this.
Everyone gasped.
They all looked at Jiang Hao, their voices filled with horror: "Su Ba has been crippled?!"
"And who is the current spokesperson of the Song family?"
Jiang Hao chuckled lightly: "It's the most trusted person of Song Ming, named Lian. Song Ming is currently in seclusion, breaking through his cultivation, and Lian is the one managing the Song family now."
"Also, the underworld leader who collaborated with the Rakshasa Palace is named Jiutian Dudao. I'm sure everyone knows this name."
Jiutian Dudao?!
The daughter of the Jiutian Family from Cherry Blossom City?!
Everyone's faces lit up with joy. This was it!
The Jiutian Family is the oldest and most powerful underworld family in Cherry Blossom City!!
Each member is adept at terrifying poison arts!
However, some still couldn't help but ask with concern: "But we haven't seen Su Ba. How can we be sure he's been crippled?"
Hearing this.
Jiang Hao's eyes revealed a cold glint as he said: "Heh, that's simple."
"I don't know if any of you have noticed an unusual situation recently."
"An unusual situation?"
"Yes... and that is..."
Jiang Hao said this with a mocking tone: "That Su Muwan, the venomous woman, hasn't appeared in public for a long time."
!!!
As the words fell.
Everyone's pupils dilated, their bodies trembling.
That's right!
Su Muwan usually loved to go shopping and bully people.
But recently...
She hasn't shown up for a whole week!
Even her news has been scarce!
Isn't this saying...
Su Ba really is in trouble!
And the new divine doctor, Qin Luo, is Su Muwan's follower.
Even Qin Luo couldn't cure Su Ba... The Su family! Is truly doomed!
In an instant, everyone's faces were filled with excitement and joy.
"Hahaha! We've been coveting the Su family for a long time! Now... we've finally waited for the best opportunity!"
"Exactly! With Su Ba down, the Su family is leaderless. This is the perfect time for us to strike!"
"Jiang Family Head! Just give the order! We'll act immediately!!"
Jiang Hao looked at the excited family heads, his heart filled with satisfaction.
He sneered.
His eyes gradually turned extremely venomous.
Su Muwan!!
You venomous woman!!
You drove my daughter Jiang Xueqi mad and made her disappear!
When the time comes, I will make you cripple yourself and kowtow to my daughter's grave to atone!
And your follower, Qin Luo!!
I will scatter his ashes on my daughter's grave!!
Jiang Hao closed his eyes, daughter.
Don't worry, father will avenge you.
Back then, because my daughter was foolish and had offended the divine doctor, I, in a fit of anger, expelled her from the family.
But now... I regret it.
So, daughter, don't worry. Father will make Su Muwan, that venomous woman, accompany you on your journey to the afterlife!
.....
....
At the Su family residence.
"Achoo!"
After staying at home for a week, doing nothing but playing games and eating snacks, Su Muwan suddenly sneezed.
She lay on the sofa, suddenly alert and looked around.
"Qin Luo, I feel like someone just cursed me!"
Hearing this, Qin Luo walked over with a tissue, handing it to Su Muwan's nose while saying: "Miss, come, wipe your nose."
"Sniff sniff sniff——!"
"Miss, please don't make such strange noises."
"Hmph! Just a mere Qin Luo, don't order me around!!"
"Yes, yes, yes~"
Qin Luo shook his head with a smile, then looked at Su Muwan and said: "So, Miss, are you ready?"
"You've been a bit lazy with your cultivation recently. Don't end up not being a match for others."
Upon hearing this.
Su Muwan snorted lightly.
Then she threw down the game controller.
Immediately after.
Hum——!
Her eyes slightly narrowed.
A sudden inexplicable feeling of palpitations appeared in Qin Luo's heart.
"Who do you think isn't a match for others~"
Su Muwan's voice carried a playful tone, but her eyes sparkled with icy light.
In the moment she gazed at him, Qin Luo felt a cold force penetrate his soul.
That force was intangible yet real, as if coming from another dimension.
However...
Qin Luo felt as though this strange force was gently caressing his deep soul.
Glancing back, he saw Su Muwan looking at him triumphantly: "My cultivation has greatly improved. Now, with just a glance, I can make someone's soul scatter!"
Is this even within the realm of martial arts?
Speaking of which.
"What's your current cultivation, Miss?"
"I won't tell you!"
"Peak Master?"
"Who do you think you're underestimating!"
For the sake of his unrequited love, his ex-girlfriend abandoned him at the altar, indirectly causing the death of his parents. Just when he thought his life was plunged into darkness, a clueless yet beautiful girl unexpectedly took him in. Looking back, he realized how many hidden gems had always been by his side. A childhood friend who had secretly loved him for over a decade, a stunning but socially clueless school beauty, a mischievous and playful girl who lived for chaos... His ex, filled with regret, pleaded: "I was wrong—can we go back to how things were?" Before he could respond, the girl stepped in front of Ye Shuang and coldly declared, "If you didn’t cherish him, then he’s mine now." Also known as: "After Losing My Job, I Was Picked Up by a Hidden Gem," "The School Beauty I Raised," and "Oh No, I’m Surrounded by Rich Girls."

and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!
