Three days later, the Su family banquet was held as scheduled.
The main residence of the Su family was festively decorated and bustling with activity.
In the courtyard, servants bustled about, preparing various delicacies and drinks.
Inside the main hall, long tables were filled with all kinds of exquisite dishes, their aromas wafting through the air.
In addition, there was a huge stage, an essential element for every family banquet of the Su family, known for their martial arts tradition.
And that meant... martial arts competitions!
Su Muwan wore a long black dress, looking elegant and noble.
She paced back and forth inside the hall.
Her expression was tense.
Tsk, these three days had passed too quickly, hadn't they?
It felt like only a day had gone by, and now it was already time for the family banquet to begin.
Su Muwan was nervous because in her previous life, she hadn't attended the banquet, so she didn't know exactly what had happened.
In her memory, the banquet seemed to have passed smoothly, but shortly after it ended, her grandfather had passed away.
Not being able to see her grandfather one last time was one of her biggest regrets from her previous life.
*Deep breath*
Relax, Su Muwan, this life will probably pass uneventfully just like the last one...
Wait, no.
Su Muwan suddenly remembered something and looked towards Qin Luo, who was standing obediently to the side.
Qin Luo was wearing a black coat, looking like a dutiful attendant.
Noticing Su Muwan's gaze, he smiled slightly.
It seemed as if he had taken to heart all the reminders she had given him over the past three days.
But Su Muwan was still not at ease.
So she walked over to Qin Luo's side, glared at him, and whispered a reminder: "Qin Luo, there will be many relatives here today, but unlike the main family, they usually won't speak rudely to me. However, if such a situation does arise, you understand?"
Qin Luo of course understood. He nodded and replied, "Don't worry, Young Miss. I'll be mindful."
"Good."
Su Muwan felt relieved.
But in reality, she was just scaring herself.
After all, how many people would be foolish enough to provoke her?
She was, after all, the daughter of the current family head, wasn't she?
It shouldn't, wouldn't, and couldn't happen.
At that moment,
A commotion arose from the entrance.
Qin Luo and Su Muwan looked over.
They saw,
A man with an elegant demeanor slowly entered the hall, surrounded by a group of people. His appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Wang City Yuwen Hua!!"
"It's actually Young Master Yuwen!!"
"Why would someone from the Yuwen family of Wang City come to our Su family banquet in Jiang City?"
"Hey! Look beside Young Master Yuwen, isn't that Uncle Tian's eldest son, Su Tian'ao?"
"Oh, I remember now. Su Tian'ao went to Wang City to develop his career a long time ago. This means... he's aligned himself with Yuwen Hua?!"
"Hiss... With the Yuwen family's support, doesn't this mean the Su Tian family is almost certain to inherit the position of the next family head??"
Wang City... Yuwen Hua?
Su Muwan's expression remained unchanged, but internally she was recalling her memories of him.
Yuwen Hua, the eldest young master of the Yuwen family in Wang City.
He was famous for his handsome appearance and elegant manners.
Moreover, in terms of martial arts, he was a genius among geniuses.
However...
Su Muwan remembered that in her previous life, after she arrived in Wang City, she found him too pretentious, even more so than herself, so she had destroyed his martial arts cultivation with a single Ice Palm strike.
This had established her reputation in Wang City.
But... in this life...
Well, she was no longer the person she had been in her previous life.
Su Muwan blinked, now she just wanted to keep a low profile.
As for Qin Luo,
When he saw Yuwen Hua, a system prompt appeared in his mind.
He blinked.
Yuwen Hua?
He actually knows that the Battle God's Command is with Tang Wenyu and her daughter?
So his purpose is to test Su Muwan's strength on behalf of the person behind him??
Isn't this purely coming to seek trouble?
At this moment,
[Detected "Su Family Banquet" plot]
[Please complete the S-rank lackey event, Master!]
[Task reward: Rumors and Whispers (What the master says will be believed by others due to the antagonist's reputation)]
Hearing the system prompt, Qin Luo suddenly understood.
Does this reward mean that as long as Su Muwan has a formidable reputation, others will believe what he says because of her reputation?
Is that what it means??
In reality,
Yuwen Hua wore a smile, his eyes gentle yet profound, as if he could see through people's hearts.
As he walked, he scanned everyone at the banquet.
When his gaze fell upon Su Muwan and Qin Luo,
A hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
So this is Su Muwan and that rumored attendant who knows the Taixuan Thirteen Needles?
Let's not even mention whether Su Muwan is truly a martial arts genius or not.
Just looking at this attendant... there doesn't seem to be anything remarkable about him.
As expected, rumors are just rumors.
No matter, this young master will soon test Su Muwan's true abilities.
I will prove to that great person... that this Su Muwan is nothing but a grain of sand before him.
Thinking this, Yuwen Hua was escorted to his seat by the crowd.
His appearance not only caught the eyes of the women present but also earned the respect of many men.
"Wow! Young Master Yuwen is really handsome!"
"Indeed! To think such a noble young man from Wang City would appear in Jiang City!"
"That's right, although our Su family is powerful, compared to the Yuwen family of Wang City, we're still a bit lacking."
Yuwen Hua took his seat, with a powerful old man standing behind him, surveying the banquet hall with a stern expression.
Ready to eliminate any fool who dared to harm his young master.
Among the crowd of admirers,
A man fawningly said, "Young Master Yuwen, that attendant standing behind Su Muwan is Qin Luo, the one who knows the Taixuan Thirteen Needles. If you could obtain the Taixuan Thirteen Needles, I believe Young Master Yuwen's influence in Wang City would become even more formidable!"
Hearing this,
Yuwen Hua sneered and shook his head, "You're all mistaken. This boy doesn't know the Taixuan Thirteen Needles at all."
Everyone was stunned, "He doesn't?"
"Heh, this boy might have fooled you, but he can't fool me. I can see that his palms have no calluses, they're even more delicate than a model's hands. How could someone like that possibly have learned the Taixuan Thirteen Needles?"
"Years ago, I witnessed the demeanor of the [Divine Doctor], his hands were full of calluses from practicing needle techniques."
"Enough about this minor character."
"What's the situation with this Su Muwan? I notice she hasn't displayed any particularly arrogant behavior."
Hearing this,
The Su Tian family quickly said, "Young Master Yuwen, please don't be deceived by her disguise."
Huang Yu, whose face was still swollen, also chimed in, "That's right, Young Master Yuwen. This little bitch's favorite trick is to have her attendant stand in front, while she pulls the strings from behind!"
"Oh?"
"Interesting."
Yuwen Hua seemed to think of the great person behind him, but...
Heh, his great person was the most perfect being in this world. This Su Muwan was nothing but a speck of dust in comparison.
Thinking this,
Yuwen Hua glanced at a woman in the crowd who was fawning over him, and pointed at her saying, "Hey, you..."
The person, hearing this, patted the little boy beside her, nodded, and respectfully smiled, "Leave it to me!"

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.
