The Leng Family.
In the study.
A man wearing an orange and yellow robe with his hair tied back stood behind Leng Qingqiu.
His eyes were also covered with a cloth, and he spoke respectfully, "Reporting to the master, after these days of investigation, we have found five organizations in Jianghai City related to the incident from years ago."
"They are the Dragon King Palace, Death, King of Hell Palace, Peach Blossom Society, and Black Tortoise Gate."
"The Dragon King Palace is currently hidden in Jianghai City, but their young master is moving about freely."
"The only member of Death was recently killed by Mei Xue."
"The Peach Blossom Society and Black Tortoise Gate have also fallen on hard times due to various vendettas over the years, with only a few minor characters hiding in Jianghai City."
"It's said... they're looking for some kind of heir."
"The only one we need to be concerned about is the King of Hell Palace. After years of establishing themselves in Jianghai City, they've formed a considerable power base."
"They've infiltrated not just the martial arts world, but also the underworld and legitimate businesses in the secular world."
As Leng Qingqiu listened to her subordinate's report, the killing intent in her heart gradually coalesced.
Who would have thought that in one Jianghai City, there would be five forces from years ago!
If she hadn't accumulated more and more power and resources over these years, she probably wouldn't have known that her enemies were right beside her.
Thinking of this, Leng Qingqiu nodded slightly and said coolly, "Jun Zilan, you've done well."
At these words, the man named Jun Zilan's face lit up with joy. He hurriedly opened his folding fan to hide his involuntarily upturned mouth corners.
His tone was filled with undisguised delight: "Well, haha, I, Jun Zilan, am the master's man. It's only right that I should share the master's worries!"
Hee hee hee~~
The master actually praised me, Jun Zilan thought excitedly, his whole body twisting back and forth.
On Leng Qingqiu's side, she pondered in silence.
She had already sent Mei Xue to probe the young master of the Dragon King Palace.
If his strength was ordinary, then killing a young master first would be a good choice.
If he was very strong, then she would set him aside for now, and first seek out the remnants of the Peach Blossom Society and Black Tortoise Gate, and then... take them out one by one!
Just as she was about to say something,
Suddenly, her expression changed, as if she had sensed some presence.
She immediately stood up and turned to Jun Zilan, ordering, "Go!"
Jun Zilan was stunned: "Go?"
But I still have things to say.
Like my reverence and respect for the master, and some poems I composed praising the master's heroic bearing.
Seeing that Jun Zilan hadn't grasped the situation, Leng Qingqiu's face instantly turned ice-cold: "Get out now!"
!!
Jun Zilan felt that cold aura and his face instantly turned pale.
He hurriedly responded "Yes!"
The next second, poof~
His form transformed into a swarm of butterflies and flew out the window.
And just a few seconds after Jun Zilan left.
"Little~ Qingqing~~"
Gu Yan's voice, calling out that sickly sweet nickname, came through.
Leng Qingqiu, seeing that Jun Zilan had left, felt relieved but also felt uncomfortable with Gu Yan's sickeningly sweet form of address.
Click!
The door opened.
"Little Qingqing~! (づ￣3￣)づ╭❤～"
"I'm here!"
Gu Yan naturally pushed open the door.
Then he immediately saw Leng Qingqiu standing by the window.
He immediately grinned and pounced over, intending to give her a loving hug from behind.
But unexpectedly, Leng Qingqiu seemed to know what he was going to do and directly dodged, causing Gu Yan to hug empty air.
Gu Yan wasn't discouraged by missing the hug. He stood up straight and looked at the cold-faced.jpg Leng Qingqiu with a smile, saying, "Little Qingqing~! What are you doing?"
Then he looked left and right before concluding: "Haven't seen you for half a day, and you've become even more beautiful, Qingqiu."
This guy.....
Leng Qingqiu had originally wanted to appear calm in front of Gu Yan.
After all, she was the controller of the Night Organization.
Her prestige must be very high.
But....
Why was it that as soon as she heard this dog man's voice and what he said,
She... couldn't help but break character?
Thinking of this, Leng Qingqiu no longer bothered to maintain a calm facade. She tilted her head slightly and snorted, "No need for you to say that, and also, please don't call me Little Qingqing in the future!"
Leng Qingqiu wished she could directly cover this dog man's mouth.
Using that tone and name to call her... didn't he know how embarrassing and humiliating it was?!
If word got out that the mighty Night King had a nickname like "Little Qingqing", how would her subordinates look at her?
Come to think of it, he always shows up when I'm planning work.
What if you discovered my secret? Wouldn't it be over then?
At that time, you, an ordinary person, would be caught up in the disputes between us martial artists, and it would be difficult to extricate yourself.
As Leng Qingqiu thought of this, she felt very dissatisfied.
This man, every time she had to cover for him, sigh.
Come to think of it, she didn't see him this morning, and now he shows up at this time......
Leng Qingqiu seemed to think of something, her expression cooled, and she said, "Tell me, how was your visit to your friend's mother?"
"What? Did you only remember to come over after you finished seeing her?"
"This morning, Ling'er was making a fuss about wanting her brother-in-law to take her to McDonald's, but in the end, your butler came instead."
Gu Yan was a bit embarrassed.
He had his reasons but couldn't explain, so he just coughed dryly, naturally took Leng Qingqiu's jade-like hand, and then led her to sit back at the desk.
[Touching pure love interest, +1 point]
Then, with an expression of [I only love you] on his face, he said, "Qingqiu, believe me, there's really nothing between me and my friend."
"I'm just too kind-hearted, so I can't bear to see others living in such dire straits."
Hearing this,
Leng Qingqiu yanked her hand away from Gu Yan's and turned her head away, saying, "I didn't say you had any kind of relationship with your friend."
"Why are you rushing to clarify on your own?"
"And dire straits... there are plenty of people in dire straits in this world, how come I don't see you helping everyone?"
Leng Qingqiu didn't know why she said these words.
She also didn't know why she felt somewhat irritated just thinking about Gu Yan going to see that woman called Wang Yulan again this morning.
Of course, Leng Qingqiu didn't think this was because she had fallen in love with Gu Yan.
It was probably that thing, that thing called possessiveness that Ling'er read about in books?
Because she regarded Gu Yan as a servant who served her.
So she didn't want this servant to serve others, yes, it must be because of this.
Gu Yan could sense that Leng Qingqiu wasn't really angry, because when she was angry, her heartbeat and breathing rates were very irregular.
But now her breathing and heartbeat were very rhythmic and calm.
So Gu Yan deduced that she wasn't angry, and thus spoke more casually.
Gu Yan took Leng Qingqiu's hand again and said softly, "Qingqiu, don't say that. My friend was also hospitalized this morning."
"You see, how could I not stay there?"
"But it's fine now. I helped her with the hospital admission procedures and paid for the subsequent treatment costs."
"I've done all I can, and there's nothing more for me to do after this."
Hearing this,
Although Leng Qingqiu felt a bit satisfied in her heart, on the surface, she said coolly, "Really? I thought your Ms. Wang would offer herself to you in gratitude, seeing how good you were to her."
"What do you mean, offer herself? Qingqiu, don't talk nonsense. Even if all the women in the world threw themselves at me, you'd be the only one I love in my mind!"
"Oh? So you're saying you've fantasized about all the women in the world throwing themselves at you?"
"Uh....... That was just a figure of speech."
"Hmph."
"Believe me, Qingqiu!"
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement?
