I am a full-level celestial master, you let me enter the strange talk of rules?

At this moment, Zhang Yangqing could see on the monitor that a middle-aged man walked in. He was wearing a dark gray suit, with the buttons neatly fastened, his hair combed meticulously, and a few gray hairs at his temples.

His expression was gentle, neither stern, nor indifferent, nor impatient.

The middle-aged man walked over to the little girl, squatted down, picked up the books scattered on the ground one by one, arranged them according to size, and put them back on the bookshelf.

His movements were slow, soft, and silent.

The little girl looked up at him, still clutching an open book in her hand.

She wasn't afraid or nervous; she just looked at the middle-aged man, as if waiting for him to say something.

The middle-aged man didn't blame her. Instead, he took the book from her hand, closed it, put it back on the shelf, and then took out another book from the shelf and handed it to her.

"This book is suitable for you; study its contents more."

His voice wasn't loud, but it was very clear.

The little girl took the book, opened it, and began to read.

She didn't thank him or say anything, but she didn't throw the book on the ground again; instead, she sat there quietly and started reading.

The middle-aged man was pleased with this action. Seeing that the little girl was obedient, he left the library.

Not long after, Zhang Yangqing arrived at the library.

The little girl was still sitting in the middle of the pile of books, holding the one the middle-aged man had handed her, turning the pages one by one.

Her expression was neither pained nor happy, as if she were completing a task.

Zhang Yangqing walked over and took the book from her hand.

The little girl looked up at him, puzzled, not understanding why Zhang Yangqing was doing this.

Zhang Yangqing said gently, "You don't need to look at these things. As I said, you just need to do it the way you like, and don't care what they say."

His tone was calm but firm, even carrying a hint of doting seduction.

The little girl hesitated for a moment, her voice very soft: "But...but Sixth Brother is very good to me. He never scolds me. The books he lets me read must be for my own good, right? I don't think Sixth Brother would lie to me."

Zhang Yangqing countered with, "So, do you like this book?"

The little girl shook her head honestly; children are generally quite honest.

Zhang Yangqing said, "That's it then. If you don't like it, why watch it? Go watch what you want to watch. I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."

Although the little girl didn't know why Zhang Yangqing said that, she still chose happiness.

She put the heavy book aside, pulled out a few picture books from the bookshelf, spread them on the floor, and lay down among the pile of books to read.

The little girl reverted to her old ways, her feet dangling and swinging back and forth, humming a tuneless little tune.

Before long, these books were scattered everywhere, piled up into a small mountain.

Seeing this, Zhang Yangqing left the library satisfied.

At this moment, the melancholy and eerie figure waiting at the door couldn't help but ask, "I'm curious, why are you so kind to this little girl? She's obviously very weak and has no use to us."

He had seen Zhang Yangqing "indulge" the little girl several times, and each time he offended those young masters and misses, and each time he made enemies for himself.

I really don't understand what Zhang Yangqing is after, he's so melancholic and strange.

Zhang Yangqing explained, "Just because it has no value now doesn't mean it won't have value in the future."

The melancholy voice pressed on, "How far have you gotten? I get the feeling you're setting up a huge scheme, one that's not even something we need to do at this stage."

It's clear he's very curious about what Zhang Yangqing is doing now. Zhang Yangqing said, "I'm planning ahead, thinking several steps, even dozens of steps ahead, it's bound to be right."

He's certainly not stupid; how could he possibly reveal his entire plan at this stage?

It's not that I doubt the melancholy and eerie nature of this guy; he simply has no reason to betray me.

If I say something and he guesses wrong, wouldn't that be embarrassing?

So he won't say it, you'll understand when the time comes.

The reason is actually quite simple. Not only Zhang Yangqing, but many of the chosen ones have already guessed what will happen next.

After dealing with the third faction in the monitoring room, the next challenge might be the power struggle within this family.

If there is a struggle for "authority" among the staff, then there is also a struggle for authority among the "owners" of this building.

The mistress still holds considerable prestige, so these young masters and ladies dare not do anything out of line and obediently follow the rules set by the mistress.

But what if something happens to the mistress? Who will be the real owner of this building?

The young masters and ladies will definitely fight each other to the death.

The best way to gain access is to kill other people who can also gain access.

Once the chosen ones have figured this out, they can start seeking out stronger young masters and ladies to join them, ensuring their survival in the second phase of the battle and their completion of the mission.

Once you guess this, you can conclude that Zhang Yangqing is also "betting".

But the target he chose to bet on seemed puzzling.

That little girl only knows how to play, she's not very strong, she has no background, and she's a semi-mysterious being, neither human nor monster. Is she really worth betting on?
Zhang Yangqing placed his bet on her precisely because she was a semi-mysterious person.

He felt that there was someone who favored her, and that was right, the "mistress" that these young masters and ladies talked about.

Zhang Yangqing had hinted at some things, but no one understood them; those were the rules of the Undying Mountain.

[Rule 5: Immortality has always been a deception; so-called immortality is merely becoming a part of "it".]

I remember there was an old chairman at Malek Heavy Industries.

In order to achieve immortality, the old chairman transformed himself into a half-human, half-monster.

The so-called immortality is living like him, half-dead and half-alive.

That's why this rule says that immortality has always been a scam, and you are just a part of "it".

The old chairman probably obtained the fruit of the immortal tree, which is why he became like that.

Seeing that the little girl was the same, Zhang Yangqing guessed that some powerful human in this world had gone to the Undying Mountain to find the fruit of the Undying Tree for her in order to prolong the little girl's life.

The only known powerful being with such strength is the matriarch.

The fact that the mistress dared to take such a great risk to bring back the fruit of the Immortal Tree from the Immortal Mountain is enough to show how much she favors the little girl.

Once the mistress appears, Zhang Yangqing can bewitch the little girl to gain more authority.

The little girl isn't strong; she just doesn't ask for permissions on her own initiative.

If she asks for it, the mistress might give it to her.

Wouldn't that make her the most powerful among all these young masters and ladies?
Of course, these were all Zhang Yangqing's predictions, but he didn't bother to say them out loud so as not to be proven wrong.

Who can guarantee that their predictions are always correct? (End of Chapter)
