Dai Xingluo and Shen Wanning Meet in Advance

Xu Mu and Wang Biao left together. After they got outside, Wang Biao bowed respectfully to Xu Mu.

"Thank you so much this time, Young Master Xu. If it weren't for you, I would never have known her true face."

"Do you still think you're not good enough for her now?" Xu Mu asked with a smile.

Wang Biao showed a simple and honest smile.

"Old Wang, you should know about what's going on with our Xu family recently, right?"

Xu Mu put his hands in his pockets and looked at the vehicles passing by on the road ahead.

"Which thing are you referring to, Young Master Xu?"

Wang Biao asked curiously.

"We're back in Yang City. This time, we might encounter the hidden families. Their ancient martial artists will be a threat to us."

Xu Mu glanced at Wang Biao and said, "I trust you very much, so I'm going to make you an ancient martial artist."

"I'll do whatever you ask me to do, Young Master Xu."

Wang Biao said seriously. Just from what had happened earlier, he owed Xu Mu another huge favor.

"Good."

Xu Mu nodded and took out two pills from his body, namely the Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Qi Gathering Pill.

"Take these two pills. Don't mix them up. Go home and take the one on the left first. After that, your body will produce dirt. Wash it off and then take the other one."

Xu Mu continued to say to Wang Biao.

"I understand."

Wang Biao separated the two pills to tell them apart.

"Go back. I'm going home to sleep too."

After Xu Mu said that, he walked towards his car and left.

As for tomorrow, he planned to go to Yang City again to continue his arrangements.

...

When he got home, Xu Mu found that Ye Tong and Ye Yu had already gone back to their rooms to sleep.

He checked on them through his perception and found that they were both lying in bed playing with their phones.

He walked upstairs. After he got back to his room, Ye Tong greeted him, "You're back?"

"Yeah."

Xu Mu replied with a smile.

After a simple wash, Xu Mu also lay down to rest.

Today, Ye Tong took the initiative to talk about Xu Mu's musical talent. She had never heard of it before.

But at nine o'clock last night, when she was scrolling through her WeChat Moments, she saw a message from Xu Shou.

It was just one sentence: "Every night when I listen to the music composed by my son, I can't help but shed tears."

Below it was a link to a piano piece.

Only then did Ye Tong discover that the composer of this piece called "Dawn" was actually Xu Mu.

She immediately checked the relevant reports and found that Xu Mu had also participated in a concert once, and the live version was even more amazing.

"Husband, how do you master so many skills? It's incredible." Ye Tong couldn't help but sigh.

"Because I work very hard."

Xu Mu looked at Ye Tong beside him and grinned, "I have a story about working hard and being perseverant. Do you want to hear it?"

A blush immediately appeared on Ye Tong's cheeks.

This was clearly not just a story.

...

Early the next morning.

After Xu Mu's family finished breakfast, they all left.

Today, Xu Mu gave Meng Wanyue another day off.

He drove to Yang City early in the morning. Today, he planned to continue wandering around the antique market.

He wanted to see if he could meet Dai Xingluo again.

When he arrived at the antique market in Yang City, Xu Mu parked his car by the side of the road and walked towards the market.

This time, in order to create an accidental encounter, Xu Mu first expanded his perception range to the maximum.

He searched for Dai Xingluo in the crowd. With her Hanfu outfit, she was relatively easy to recognize.

The antique market here had a "well"-shaped street layout, with two horizontal and two vertical streets.

Xu Mu walked along the streets, searching with his perception. Finally, after his efforts, he found Dai Xingluo.

She was in an antique shop called "Antiques Through the Ages".

The old man from before was sitting beside the counter, looking at a porcelain vase with a magnifying glass.

And Dai Xingluo was still wearing her Hanfu, lying in a rocking chair.

To Xu Mu's surprise, Dai Xingluo was holding the Chi Dragon Jade Pendant at this moment.

"It seems that last time's encounter was still a bit useful," Xu Mu retracted his perception and murmured softly.

After that, he walked towards the street where Dai Xingluo was.

When he got close to her shop, he deliberately slowed down and started looking at the things on the stalls on both sides.

He had now reached the front door of the shop, but he was facing away from the antique shop at this time.

"Boss, how much is this multicolored porcelain?"

Xu Mu deliberately raised his voice a few decibels in order to catch Dai Xingluo's attention.

"This is a multicolored porcelain from the Qing Dynasty. It's two hundred thousand yuan," the old man, who was the boss here, said, holding up two fingers.

"Two hundred thousand? This is just an ordinary multicolored porcelain. Why is it so expensive?"

Although Xu Mu was looking at the porcelain in front of him, he was checking on Dai Xingluo behind him through his perception.

Hasn't she noticed yet?

"I don't bargain here. Two hundred thousand. If you don't want it, that's fine."

The old man waved his hand. Obviously, he also knew something about this field.

Most of the things in his shop were real, but they were all relatively ordinary and there were many of them passed down through the ages.

Rare things are precious. Since there were so many, they weren't worth much.

"Two hundred thousand is too expensive."

Xu Mu reminded again and found that Dai Xingluo was still looking at the jade pendant and hadn't noticed here.

"No bargaining."

The old man waved his hand at Xu Mu, obviously not intending to do business with him.

Xu Mu was considering whether it would be too obvious if he just walked directly into her shop.

Just as Xu Mu was about to turn around, suddenly, he found a person in front of him.

"Damn it!"

Xu Mu was so startled that he took a step back and almost knocked down the stall behind him.

Unexpectedly, just when he was distracted for a moment, Dai Xingluo had noticed him and had already come behind him.

"It's you?"

Xu Mu looked at Dai Xingluo in front of him and pretended to be surprised.

"How dare you come here again? Didn't you say that there were people who might do you harm?"

Dai Xingluo had heard the voice outside the shop just now and it had sounded familiar.

But she couldn't remember right away. When she saw the back, she finally realized.

This was the man she had been thinking about.

"I didn't come yesterday. They can't just stay here all the time, right?"

Xu Mu showed a faint smile.

"Don't buy things from his shop. They're too expensive."

Dai Xingluo glanced at the old man.

The stall was right across from Li Zizai's antique shop. Li Zizai had also checked before, and there were indeed many real things there.

But the prices were generally higher than the market price.

"I didn't plan to buy. I'm just here to look for antiques and see if I can find a bargain."

Xu Mu looked at Dai Xingluo. He really couldn't understand how such a beautiful ancient - style woman could be a vicious villain.

"Xu Mu?"

Just then, a woman wearing a sports cap and with long black hair walked over from a distance.

This woman was tall, with big peach - blossom eyes, completely different from Feng Yue.

Feng Yue's eyes were alluring, but hers were very amiable, as if they could naturally draw people closer.

The person who came was none other than Shen Wanning.

Xu Mu was secretly shocked. What was going on?

In the original plot, it was Dai Xingluo who had tortured Shen Wanning to the brink of death, which was why the Dragon King had taken action against her.

Why had they met earlier?

"Xu Mu, what are you doing here?"

Shen Wanning walked over and asked.

Dai Xingluo beside her immediately narrowed her eyes, and the half - visible pupils were filled with a chilling aura.

The Day I Died, the Whole Sect Watched My Senior Sister Go on a Rampage

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.
