Xu Mu frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
"People from the Chai family have come to me. They said they're interested in my beauty pills and want to cooperate with me, but their proposed plan is really unfavorable to me."
When Feng Yue said this, she suddenly laughed. "Do you know how they threatened me? They said, 'I bet you wouldn't want people to know that you have that kind of infectious disease, right?' "
Xu Mu could tell that Feng Yue didn't seem worried.
After all, the Chai family was just an ordinary business family, while Feng Yue was now a martial artist of ancient techniques.
However, Feng Yue was still too naive. Behind the Chai family now was Fang Chu.
As the male protagonist, this guy was definitely not easy to deal with.
"I'll come over right away."
Xu Mu immediately drove to find Feng Yue. He felt that after the disappearance of the Feng family, the business landscape in Jiangbei was going to be reshuffled.
It probably wouldn't be peaceful in the near future.
...
Muyue Group.
It was located on the outskirts of Yang City, separated from the Environmental Sanitation Department by just a wall.
Feng Yue had received the cashed - out funds from Chen Cai in recent days. She had negotiated for a piece of land nearby and planned to build a building.
In the future, she intended to move her company and factory here.
Feng Yue was wearing a black long dress. In the morning sun, she looked extremely gorgeous.
Some of the surrounding employees were even stunned by her beauty.
The saying goes, "It's not just about a woman's beauty, but her charm." This was truly exemplified in Feng Yue.
After Feng Yue came out of the factory, she was going back to her office.
Currently, everything was going according to plan.
No matter how good the advertisement was, it couldn't compare to the actual effect. Her beauty pills had the endorsement of those wealthy ladies.
Many of these women were helping Feng Yue promote the pills for free.
Just then, she saw a message on her phone and a smile appeared on her face.
She turned back and headed towards the company's entrance.
Xu Mu drove a Cadillac Escalade and parked it in a parking space inside the factory.
Before he could even get out of the car, Feng Yue opened the door and sat in the passenger seat.
"Have the people from the Chai family left?"
Xu Mu glanced at Feng Yue and asked.
"They left just a little while ago. When they found out I didn't agree to cooperate, they threatened me."
Feng Yue showed a smile.
"You still need to keep a low profile. The Chai family has recently gotten to know a martial artist of ancient techniques."
Xu Mu looked solemn. "This guy is not easy to deal with. You must be more careful."
As he spoke, he took out a Qi Sea Pill from his body and gave it to Feng Yue.
"Judging from the luster and color of this pill, it should be extraordinary, right?" Feng Yue stared at the Qi Sea Pill and asked.
"Good for you. Eat it."
On his way here, Xu Mu had been thinking for a long time.
Feng Yue was now considered his own person, and she definitely needed to improve her strength.
[Favorability +20]
"Thank you, Young Master Xu."
Feng Yue's peach - blossom eyes curved into crescents.
"Don't call me Young Master Xu. It makes us seem distant."
Xu Mu leaned back on the seat and glanced at Feng Yue.
"Then how about I call you Boss?"
Feng Yue didn't stand on ceremony either. She stuffed the Qi Sea Pill into her mouth and then said with a smile.
"Okay."
Just as Xu Mu was speaking, he noticed a thin middle - aged man at the gate.
He was wearing a black security uniform and walked out of the security room at the gate, with a cigarette in his mouth.
Xu Mu noticed him because the gentle breeze could blow up his right sleeve.
This man didn't have a right arm.
"What's going on with him? You hired a one - armed man as a security guard?"
Xu Mu pointed in the direction of the gate and asked.
"I forgot to tell you. He came for an interview yesterday. He's a martial artist of ancient techniques."
Feng Yue looked at the middle - aged man in the distance and said.
"What? A martial artist of ancient techniques?" Xu Mu frowned. "Feng Yue, you're not that stupid, are you? A proper martial artist of ancient techniques coming to apply for a security guard job. Do you think that makes sense?"
"I had no choice. He said if I didn't agree, he'd kill me."
Feng Yue shook her head slightly. "He also said he'd only stay here for a while and definitely wouldn't do any harm to the company. Moreover, he said he'd protect my safety during this period."
Hearing this, Xu Mu got out of the car and walked towards the gate.
Two possibilities immediately popped into Xu Mu's mind about this person hiding in Feng Yue's company.
First, he came for Feng Yue. Either he was interested in the beauty pills or in Feng Yue herself.
Second, he came for the Environmental Sanitation Department. Hiding in Feng Yue's company, he could just monitor the movements of the Environmental Sanitation Department.
Xu Mu now came in front of the man and activated his Divine Eye to see if he could figure out the man's identity.
Name: Zhang Que
Occupation: Security guard at Muyue Group, Farmer
Favorability: 0
Destiny Level: 6 (Max level is 10)
When Xu Mu saw this name and the man's missing arm, he was extremely shocked.
It was normal for names to be repeated.
But having the same name and the same missing arm.
The man in front of him was very likely to be one of the Two Disabled, the top combat forces in the secular world.
There was a saying: "One Madman, Two Disabled, Three Killers, Four Aristocratic Families, and the Cleaners are out of the five elements."
The Two Disabled were known as the ones with missing limbs. One was missing an arm, and the other was missing a leg.
The one missing an arm was called Zhang Que.
According to the plot, Zhang Que was cruel and killed people wantonly.
He had come from an extremely evil organization.
Everyone in this organization was an unprecedentedly great villain.
There was no record in the plot about this organization.
It was only said that this organization had long since been destroyed, and only Zhang Que remained, often appearing in people's sight.
However, very few people knew that Zhang Que was from this organization.
Xu Mu knew the plot, so he knew about it.
Those cleaners next door probably didn't know Zhang Que's past.
Zhang Que noticed someone approaching and also turned to look at Xu Mu. For a moment, he was a bit stunned.
Xu Mu looked at this middle - aged man with sunken cheeks and small eyes, looking like a wild beast.
He was even more certain that this person was definitely the legendary Zhang Que.
Just looking at his temperament and appearance, it seemed that he had many lives on his hands.
Then, Xu Mu had already guessed why Zhang Que was here.
Neither the beauty pills nor Feng Yue were enough to attract a big shot like Zhang Que.
His purpose of hiding here must be related to the cleaners.
"What's your name?"
Zhang Que held the cigarette in his left hand and looked at Xu Mu.
"My name is Xu Mu."
Xu Mu didn't lie.
"I seem to have heard of you."
Zhang Que grinned and then took another puff of his cigarette, turning to look into the distance.
"Boss... Xu."
Feng Yue also followed from behind and explained with a smile, "This man is Zhang Que. He's a martial artist of ancient techniques and my newly - hired security guard."
"You call him Boss?"
Zhang Que suddenly turned back and looked at Feng Yue. "So, is this a property of the Xu family?"
"No, this is Feng Yue's company. I'm Feng Yue's boss, and it has nothing to do with the Xu Group."
Xu Mu explained with a smile.
"Hehe, interesting."
Zhang Que raised his eyebrows in surprise. He took a few more puffs of his cigarette and then threw the cigarette butt on the ground.
"Senior, since you're a martial artist of ancient techniques, why did you come here to be a security guard?"
Xu Mu asked curiously.
Although his expression was gentle, his muscles were already tensed up.
At the slightest sign of something wrong, he was going to take Feng Yue and retreat.
The One Madman and the Two Disabled were all individuals, yet they were as well - known as killer organizations and aristocratic families.
They must have exceeded the Grandmaster realm.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
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.
