As soon as he finished speaking, Yanbian Lao Er chuckled and said hoarsely:

"Who do you think you are? You think you can make us talk? Dream on!"

As he spoke, he spat out a mouthful of bloody foam, his face full of provocation.

"We are trained martial artists, accustomed to all sorts of interrogation methods. Your fancy moves are nothing to us!"

Linghu's face darkened, and she raised her hand to step forward, but was calmly stopped by Cao Kun.

"Wait a minute, let me do it."

Everyone was taken aback.

Suddenly, Cao Kun produced a vine in his hand.

The vines were ancient and vigorous, with distinct wood grain and tiny barbs on the surface, gleaming faintly with a cold light.

[The Shepherd's Cane (Blue): The person being whipped will become slightly more obedient (ineffective against men)]

Cao Kun flicked his wrist lightly, and the rattan immediately made a "whooshing" sound, tearing the air apart with a sharp sound.

Wang Meng and the spirit fox exchanged a glance, both unable to contain their surprise.

Previously, Cao Kun obtained a special profession—[Beast Tamer]—when opening blind boxes.

[Beast Tamer (Purple): Gains whip specialization, increasing your whip damage and making targets submit more quickly.]

From that moment on, Cao Kun automatically mastered the use of dozens of whip-type weapons:

Leather whip, nine-section whip, chain whip, snake bone whip, meteor whip...

This naturally includes the vine in front of us.

After all, a pointer is still a pointer.

With a flick of his wrist, the vine danced through the air, leaving several afterimages and making a dull whistling sound.

The eldest brother from Yanbian felt the air vibrate and couldn't help but open his eyes.

Seeing that it was just a vine, he immediately sneered and spat out a mouthful of blood: "Heh, are you kidding me? You think you can scare me with a broken vine?"

"Come on, slap me in the face! If I utter a single word, I'm not a man!"

Cao Kun smiled slightly, a smile so gentle it was almost shy.

"Alright, let's test the power of this vine."

He thought to himself, "Both the beast tamer's and the shepherd's vines can make the target submit more quickly."

"Although the shepherd's cane is ineffective against men..."

His smile gradually turned strange, his gaze falling on the Yanbian gang leader, and he said softly:

"But now, you can hardly be considered 'male' anymore, can you?"

The leader of Yanbian didn't see what Cao Kun said, but a chill ran down his spine instinctively.

Cao Kun sneered and lashed out with the rattan cane in his hand without any mercy.

"Snapped!"

The rattan whistled through the air as it struck the Yanbian gang leader hard.

"ah--"

Extreme pain instantly engulfed the entire body of the Yanbian boss.

The pain had an indescribable, eerie tingling sensation.

It felt as if countless needles carrying electric currents were simultaneously piercing his body, causing all the nerves in his body to tremble.

With just a few lashes, the Yanbian gang leader was instantly moved to tears.

He strained his voice and let out a piercing scream: "Stop hitting him! Stop hitting him! Stop hitting him!"

His voice became shrill and thin, his expression completely distorted, carrying an indescribable humiliation and...submission.

The second brother from Yanbian was hanging to the side.

Seeing my brother, who is usually known as a tough guy, suddenly turn into this.

His eyes widened in shock.

He never expected his brother to make such a sound.

Cao Kun stopped what he was doing, looked at the disheveled Yanbian gang leader on the ground, and asked calmly, "What are your names?"

The eldest brother from Yanbian hesitated for a moment, then said in a weak voice, "My...my name is Park Duan-ki."

"Pu Duan Chicken?" Cao Kun almost died laughing.

The name is actually quite accurate.

Yanbian's second brother looked at him with a shocked expression.

He couldn't believe his brother had given in so easily.

Where did the tough guy go?

Cao Kun tossed the shepherd's cane to the fox spirit: "You continue the interrogation, and dig out all the secrets of the Wang family."

After saying that, he turned and went upstairs.

The spirit fox gazed at Cao Kun's retreating figure, a hint of awe flashing in its eyes.

He personally interrogated Park Duan-ki, the leader of Yanbian.

The fox spirit knew perfectly well how stubborn she was.

Yet Cao Kun whipped him so many times that he was reduced to this state?

"As expected of my boss, his abilities are truly comprehensive..."

The spirit fox looked at Cao Kun's retreating figure with reverence.

Cao Kun had no idea what he was thinking and led Wang Meng upstairs on his own.

Not long after I came out of the basement, I heard a commotion coming from the villa’s courtyard.

The courtyard was quite lively, with several nannies bringing out a barbecue grill, and the air was filled with the aroma of roasted meat.

The parents, Yue Xin, and several of Cao Kun's subordinates were all busy in the courtyard.

Xu Lin was in charge of grilling the meat, and Fu Die was in charge of sprinkling the seasonings.

Zhu Mengmeng was responsible for bringing the grilled meat to the table.

Father Cao Tianheng and mother Xu Ruyun each held a bowl, watching all this with smiles on their faces.

Cao Kun was taken aback, raising an eyebrow slightly: "Why...why is it so lively?"

Yue Xin put down the clips in her hand and walked over with a smile.

Today she wore a light beige sleeveless shirt with the neckline slightly open, paired with high-waisted trousers, which was both cool and elegant.

The light shone on her fair skin, making her look radiant and elegant.

"Of course it's because of you."

Her eyes sparkled, and with a gentle flick of her hair, she revealed her slender neck and delicate collarbone.

"Because of me?" Cao Kun looked at her in confusion.

"Didn't you deposit that 10 billion in cash into our bank? The head office noticed it immediately as soon as the money arrived."

"I was still hesitating about how to win the position of bank president, but the head office leadership directly hinted to me that I should prepare to take over."

"Tonight's barbecue is to celebrate my promotion."

She leaned close to Cao Kun's ear and whispered, "I want to thank you properly tonight~"

"Gurgle~"

Cao Kun swallowed hard.

Yue Xin smiled, turned around and picked up two skewers of freshly grilled lamb testicles from the grill, handed them to him, and said with a smile:

"Here, freshly roasted lamb testicles. I remember you used to love them the most."

The lamb testicles on the grill were still sizzling, glistening with oil and blood.

This is a specialty of Jinning; the appeal lies in its freshness.

As soon as Cao Kun looked down, the scene in the basement flashed through his mind.

"Ugh—"

His expression changed, and his stomach churned.

He immediately turned around, ran outside, bent over, and dry heaved.

Yue Xin was startled and quickly dropped the kebab in her hand.

She ran after him, patting his back anxiously, "Are you alright? Did you eat something bad?"

Cao Kun waved his hand, took a deep breath, and forced a smile, "It's nothing... I'm just a little tired today, I'll go rest for a while."

After saying that, he turned and went upstairs, his back looking slightly stiff.

Yue Xin looked in the direction he left, then looked down at the two strings of roasted lamb testicles that had fallen to the ground, her expression somewhat strange.

"strangeness……"

She murmured, "Didn't he used to love eating this the most?"
