The Lin Family.
The birthday banquet scene was lively, with the Lin Family courtyard decorated festively and the banquet hall exuding elegant splendor.
Representatives from various prominent families arrived in formal attire, with luxury cars lined up in front of the Lin residence, creating a grand atmosphere.
Old Master Lin stood at the entrance wearing a Tang suit, looking spirited and vigorous, his face beaming with joy.
Haha!
So many families have come to our Lin Family; I only sent out invitations with modest expectations.
But... the response has been incredible, with nearly half of Jiang City's families attending this old man's birthday celebration.
Moreover, almost all of these attendees are from the upper echelons of Jiang City's most powerful families!
Lin Wanrong watched the arriving guests with delighted eyes, her lips trembling with excitement: "Grandfather, these people must have come to give face to our Lin Family because of Miss Su!"
"Miss Su is truly our Lin Family's lucky star!"
Old Master Lin nodded in agreement, sighing: "Indeed, just Miss Su's name alone has attracted so many families."
"Some families I never dared dream of have even taken the initiative to attend the banquet."
"Granddaughter... it seems our previous discussions were right. Following Miss Su is the key to our Lin Family's prosperity!"
Lin Wanrong nodded, but then, as if remembering something, she anxiously said: "Also, Grandfather, about my situation with Xiao Tian..."
Upon hearing Xiao Tian's name.
Old Master Lin's expression changed, and he snorted coldly: "Don't worry, granddaughter. This Xiao Tian has gone mad for some reason, acting like a fool."
"No matter, at this birthday banquet, this old man will definitely help you break off the engagement with him!"
Previously, Old Master Lin had believed Xiao Tian was the Dragon King, but... after seeing Xiao Tian's behavior at the hospital and his current foolish state.
He gradually realized.
This Xiao Tian was no Dragon King at all! Which Dragon King would end up in such a state?
Now he even suspected that the old Dragon King he met years ago was just a con man.
Lin Wanrong's face lit up upon hearing this: "Thank you, Grandfather!"
At that moment.
A commotion arose from the main entrance of the Lin residence.
Old Master Lin looked over.
When he saw that figure.
Instantly, his face filled with shock, and after drawing a sharp breath, he stammered in astonishment: "What?! It's... it's... it's Long Xiayue, the young miss of the Long Family from Wang City?!"
Lin Wanrong also looked over curiously, and upon seeing the person, she began to stutter: "The... the Long Family actually sent someone?!"
Miss Su's influence actually extended to the Long Family of Wang City!!
Both grandfather and granddaughter were shocked.
At the entrance.
A graceful figure emerged from a stretched luxury car.
It was a young woman wearing an exquisite formal dress, with noble bearing and beautiful features - none other than Long Xiayue, one of the many young misses of Wang City's Long Family!!!!
All guests stopped in their tracks, shocked to see Long Xiayue of the Long Family.
The Long Family actually came to this birthday banquet?
This was Long Xiayue of Wang City's Long Family!
She had shown extraordinary martial talent and intelligence from a young age.
Before turning ten, she had already mastered her family's inherited martial arts, displaying astounding comprehension and power control.
At twelve, Long Xiayue swept through all competitors in the National Youth Martial Arts Competition, claiming championship with absolute dominance - a defining moment in her rise to prominence.
Subsequently, she received public praise for her talent from the Long Family's former genius prodigy and current family head, Long Aotian, who was also her father.
It's worth noting that Long Aotian had countless children.
Those he remembered were all exceptional talents!
By fifteen, Long Xiayue was already the strongest among her peers in Wang City!!
Now at eighteen, she had already reached the late stage of the Foundation Realm!!!!
She was undoubtedly a supreme genius!!
After stepping out of the car, Long Xiayue surveyed her surroundings, her gaze carrying a hint of arrogance.
She sneered: "How laughable, the people in this tiny place are all so weak! Some don't even have any martial cultivation."
She shook her head in disappointment: "I really don't understand why the Dragon King would marry into such a pathetic small family."
As her words fell.
A black-robed elder stepped out behind her, chuckling and saying in a hoarse voice: "Young Miss's words are mistaken. The reason for the Dragon King's marriage is to cultivate the Dragon King Palace's supreme technique, the Dragon God Technique."
"Only after experiencing the complete range of human emotions and desires can one breakthrough in this technique."
"Only with this breakthrough can one become a true Dragon King!"
"The old Dragon King had Young Master Xiao Tian undergo these tribulations to temper his mind."
Hearing this, Long Xiayue finally nodded. She hadn't come here for anything else.
She was here to bring this generation's Dragon King, Young Master Xiao Tian, back to Wang City to enjoy his rightful treatment!
Because....
The previous Dragon King of the Dragon King Palace wasn't just Xiao Tian's master! He was also the master of her father, Long Aotian!
In fact, their Long Family was one of the many powers under the Dragon King Palace!
Therefore, she had known Xiao Tian since childhood and developed feelings for him.
The previous Dragon King had said that the position of Palace Master wasn't determined by strength, but by fate.
That's why her father hadn't become the Dragon King.
This made Long Xiayue believe even more strongly that Xiao Tian was the most perfect and powerful man in the world.
Only such a man was worthy of conquering her!
Thinking this.
Long Xiayue raised her head proudly and said: "Let's go, Grandpa Ying."
"Yes, Young Miss."
With that.
The two walked toward the Lin Family's main entrance, one in front and one behind.
Old Master Lin's face brightened with joy, and he quickly said to his granddaughter: "Quick, granddaughter, the Long Family's young miss has arrived, we must hurry to greet her."
Lin Wanrong nodded excitedly: "Yes, Grandfather!"
Moments later.
Long Xiayue walked over proudly.
Old Master Lin immediately approached with a beaming smile: "Young Miss Long, it's such an honor, welcome, welcome! Please come in, please come in!"
"Oh my, I had no idea Young Miss Long was also acquainted with Miss Su, this is truly..."
Before he could finish.
Long Xiayue, who had only intended to give a slight nod, suddenly stopped in her tracks.
She turned her head, looking arrogantly at the smiling Old Master Lin and Lin Wanrong, saying flatly: "Wait, what did you just say?"
"Su Family's young miss? Are you suggesting that... I came here because of Su Muwan?"
Long Xiayue repeated Old Master Lin's words.
Her expression changed from arrogance to deep contempt and disdain.
Old Master Lin and Lin Wanrong's expressions froze.
They exchanged glances.
What... was going on?
This didn't seem right at all?
Old Master Lin quickly said with an embarrassed smile: "This... I'm terribly sorry, this old man seems to have misunderstood..."
Hearing this.
Long Xiayue, who had only intended to bring the Dragon King back, now felt a spark of interest.
She laughed coldly and said arrogantly: "Heh, this is quite a major misunderstanding."
"Do you know who I am? The young miss of Wang City's Long Family."
"What right does your tiny Su Family from Jiang City have to make me specially travel to this backwater place?"
"Forget it... what's the use of talking to such short-sighted people?"
As Long Xiayue spoke, she turned and walked toward the banquet hall, leaving behind these words: "I originally only planned to pick up someone and leave, but since you've mentioned Su Muwan of the Su Family..."
"I've decided to show you all just how insignificant the Su Family is compared to my Long Family."
Ahead.
Grandpa Ying, following behind Long Xiayue, shook his head with an amused smile: "Haha, Young Miss, you're really not giving any face to the birthday celebration's hosts. Though the Su Family's overall strength may not match the Long Family, their top fighters are on par."
Long Xiayue sneered dismissively: "I've long heard that Su Muwan has decent martial talent, but she's never had any notable achievements. Since I'm here anyway, I might as well see what she's capable of!"
"As for this Lin Family, I've heard that the Dragon King has suffered much humiliation here. Judging by the Lin Family's attitude today, they're clearly siding with the Su Family."
"In that case, I shall make them understand just how... short-sighted they are!"
"As for Su Muwan... hah, how laughable. I want to see what kind of strength she has that could possibly compare to mine! Compare to the Dragon Family! Compare to my Dragon King Palace!"
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.
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."

Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women.
