I'm in the Dragon Clan, bound to the Naruto Counterattack System

Chapter 129 Lu Mingze's Super Rage

Cheng Sui looked at the wine-loving Mai in front of him.

As expected of sisters, you can still see some similarities between her and Aki-senpai in her brows, but Mai Shutoku's temperament is much sharper.

"Speak, what are your demands?" Cheng Sui shifted to a more comfortable position, leaning back on the soft sofa.

"You don't seem surprised at all by this," Mai Shude noticed Cheng Sui's calm expression and couldn't help but speak up.

She had thought this cautious man would be surprised that she knew about his relationship with Erii.

Surprisingly, the man remained completely calm.

"So what kind of expression do you want to see on my face?" Cheng Sui looked at the alluring woman in front of him. "A shocked look on my face as I ask you how you know Erii?"

Mai Shude didn't say anything, because that was indeed what she thought.

Cheng Sui chuckled.

"So that's why you've been following me and Erii, and constantly leaking our information to the Snake-Headed Eight Family and the Demon Clan?"

Mai felt that the boy in front of her suddenly turned cold, and even the air seemed to be filled with a murderous aura.

Hiding in a dark corner, Su Enxi swallowed hard, nervously watching the two people sitting opposite her.

Without the girl with no connections, I can't help them if they start fighting.

Moreover, Su Enxi didn't think that Jiu De Mai would be a match for Cheng Sui, even though Jiu De Mai had a potion that the boss had given her to temporarily enhance her bloodline.

Su Enxi felt that Cheng Sui would not give Jiu Demai the chance to drink that potion.

Mai Shude gave an awkward smile, trying her best to maintain her elegant demeanor: "But you still managed to complete the trip with that girl, didn't you?"

"Do you know?" Cheng Sui leaned forward slightly.

For the first time, Mai felt overwhelmed in terms of presence. She swallowed hard, sensing an extremely dangerous aura emanating from this person.

"If you weren't Aki-senpai's older sister, but some other person talking nonsense to me, I would have cut off your limbs long ago."

Cold sweat seeped from the forehead of the man named Jiu Dema.

Her intuition told her that Cheng Sui was not exaggerating.

The person in front of me really will do what he says.

Cheng Sui withdrew his imposing aura, leaned back on the leather sofa, and resumed his previous indifferent expression.

Mai Shude's chest heaved violently twice. Just now, she felt as if she were being stared at by a ferocious beast, and the oppressive feeling almost made it hard for her to breathe.

"How do you know about me and Aki—" Mai Shutoku asked, snapping out of her daze.

Cheng Sui raised his hand to stop her: "If your boss can know, why can't I? Why don't you tell me about that deal you mentioned before, what exactly is it?"

Looking at Cheng Sui, Jiu De Mai hesitated, wondering whether she should continue to explain the details of the deal.

"Your boss's deal has nothing to do with you, so speak up without hesitation," Cheng Sui said, noticing her hesitation.

"Our boss said that if you're willing to leave Erii, he can take care of Erii's bloodline issue," Mai Shutoku said hesitantly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire top-floor observation deck fell into a deathly silence.

Cheng Sui did not answer immediately, but just looked at Jiu Demai quietly, his face showing no emotion.

Mai Shude felt a little uneasy under his gaze.

Her task tonight was to showcase her charm as much as possible, using her feminine advantages to soften the man and create favorable conditions for the negotiations to come.

Therefore, she specially chose this evening gown that best accentuated her figure and prepared the finest red wine and banquet.

In such a romantic and luxurious atmosphere, she believed that no man could resist her invitation.

She did her best to showcase the charm of a mature woman; every subtle movement, from her posture to the way she picked up her wine glass, was meticulously planned.

However, Cheng Suicong showed little interest throughout.

He neither admired the view outside the window nor glanced at her.

It's like an audience member who comes to the theater to watch a play but has no interest in the plot, just patiently waiting for the final curtain to fall.

This feeling left Mai Shude feeling extremely frustrated.

She felt that everything she had carefully prepared was a joke.

Time passed silently, second by second, as if the air itself had frozen.

Su Enxi, who was hiding in the distance, felt her heart leap into her throat. She could sense that the atmosphere had dropped to freezing point.

Finally, Cheng Sui picked up the glass of red wine in front of him that he hadn't touched until now.

A thought struck Mai Shude: she believed things had taken a turn for the better.

Perhaps he just needs time to process this information.

Cheng Sui put down his wine glass, the bottom of which collided with the expensive marble tabletop, making a crisp sound that seemed particularly abrupt.

"Thank you for your hospitality."

Cheng Sui stood up and straightened her kimono.

Mai Shude was stunned: "That's it?!"

She hadn't expected this reaction at all.

Shouldn't it be about bargaining, angry questioning, or being caught in a painful choice?

What does this casual "thank you for the meal" mean?

"What do you mean?" Mai Shude also stood up, her tone tinged with urgency.

Cheng Sui didn't look at her, but his voice clearly reached Jiu Demai's ears: "I'm not interested in his and Lu Mingfei's revenge, or the so-called path to becoming king."

Cheng Sui's voice was calm, yet it was like a bombshell, exploding in the ears of Jiu Demai and Su Enxi.

Mai Shude's face drained of color instantly, and her mind went blank.

How did he know all this?

The boss's existence was completely unknown to anyone except her few core subordinates.

And the name Lu Mingfei is the boss's biggest secret.

Just how many things does this man still hide that they don't know?

"You—" Mai Shude's voice was hoarse.

Cheng Sui slowly turned around, his dark pupils appearing deep under the light of the crystal chandelier.

"Go back and tell your boss, Lu Mingze."

When Cheng Sui clearly uttered the name, Jiu De Mai felt her heart skip a beat.

Mai Shude instinctively took a step back, wanting to get away from the boy.

"Don't interfere too much in my affairs." Cheng Sui walked closer to her step by step.

His pace was slow, yet it carried an invisible sense of oppression, making it difficult for Mai Shude to breathe.

"I warned you, if it weren't for the fact that you're Aki-senpai's older sister, do you think you'd still be standing here unscathed after revealing the news about me and Erii?"

The cold words made Jiu Demai feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

She had no doubt that if she and Aki had no connection, she would not have been able to leave this building alive today.

"But if you and your boss think you can use Erii to blackmail me or hinder me."

Cheng Sui stopped in front of her, the two of them so close they could almost feel each other's breath.

He lowered his head slightly, leaned close to Mai Shude's ear, and spoke slowly and deliberately in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Then I wouldn't mind booking a plane ticket to Binhai City right now and going to rip off Lu Mingfei."

"Let's see if he can save people faster, or if I can kill them faster."

These words exploded in Mai Shude's mind.

Her whole body stiffened, unable to move, and a bone-chilling cold shot from the soles of her feet straight to the top of her head.

An unprecedented fear gripped her heart; she couldn't understand how Cheng Sui had learned all this.

But she knew what kind of being she had provoked this time.

Originally, Mai thought Cheng Sui was just a mixed-race person with a high bloodline, but now it seems that Cheng Sui's background may be much more complicated and noble than she imagined.

Moreover, this man doesn't play by the rules at all; he doesn't try to solve the mystery or break the deadlock.

He chose to overturn the entire chessboard and eliminate the players as well.

Meanwhile, in Hawaii.

A private estate hidden deep within a volcanic island.

A warm sea breeze swept across the pool, stirring the flames of the campfire on the shore.

A little boy wearing white beach shorts is leisurely lying on a lounge chair by the pool, holding a glass of juice decorated with a small parasol.

He looked no more than eleven or twelve years old, with a face as delicate as an angel's, and golden eyes that shimmered in the night.

It was Lu Mingze.

In front of him, a huge virtual screen floated in mid-air.

The screen displays a live feed from the observation deck on the top floor of the Roppongi Hills Mori Tower in Tokyo.

When Cheng Sui uttered the words "Go kill Lu Mingfei," Lu Mingze's nonchalant smile instantly froze.

"Snap!"

The glass in his hand shattered with a crash.

Glistening shards of glass mixed with bright red juice splashed onto the back of his fair hand, cutting tiny cuts.

Fresh blood slowly dripped from between his fingers.

But Lu Mingze seemed completely oblivious.

A raging fire ignited in his golden eyes.

"Cheng Sui————"

He squeezed out the name through clenched teeth, his voice terrifyingly low.

The temperature in the manor suddenly dropped at that moment.

A thin layer of ice began to form on the surface of the pool, and the surrounding campfires were instantly extinguished, plunging the entire space into darkness.

Only those golden eyes burned in the darkness.

He had always thought that Cheng Sui was just an interesting variable.

He could use him, guide him, and even cultivate him into another weapon on his path of revenge.

So he sent Mai Shutoku to contact him and throw out the bait about Erii.

He wanted to see what choice this man would make between love and power.

No matter what he chooses, he will be the ultimate winner.

But to his utter surprise, Cheng Sui overturned the table and used his most cherished brother to threaten him in return.

This person knew everything from the very beginning.

He knew of his own existence, his own purpose, and even the symbiotic relationship between himself and Lu Mingfei.

How is that possible?

These are the ultimate secrets that even the Dragon King cannot fathom.

unless----

An absurd thought popped into Lu Mingze's mind.

He suddenly looked up and stared at the calm boy on the screen.

In this world, there is only one being who can transcend the rules and understand the root of everything.

That is the source that gave birth to all dragons and formed all the rules of this world.

It is the ultimate existence that even Nidhogg fears.

Could it be that Cheng Sui is her alter ego in this era?

The idea began to grow in Lu Mingze's mind as soon as it appeared, and the more he thought about it, the more astonishingly likely it was.

There is no other explanation for what happened to Cheng Sui besides this one.

His abnormally rapid growth, his endless stream of incantations and abilities that even he himself could not decipher, and his knowledge of all secrets.

Lu Mingze gazed at the twinkling stars in the Hawaiian night sky, his eyes somewhat unfocused.

For the first time, he began to doubt his own plans and whether he could win the war.
