I am a master of both medicine and martial arts; after my release from prison, I will dominate the w

"Mr. Chu! I've heard so much about you!"

The middle-aged man quickly approached Chu Yang, his attitude quite respectful.

"I am Xie Yongquan. My son dared to make a bet with you, and he failed to keep his word at the hotel today. I have already reprimanded him and, as you requested, transferred double the amount to the account you designated. Now, I have brought my son here to apologize."

As he spoke, Xie Yongquan bowed deeply.

Chu Yang smiled.

Perhaps the Xie family knew about what happened to the Jiang family, which is why they adopted this attitude.

However, it is clear from Xie Yongquan's meticulous words that there is a reason why the Xie family has been able to maintain its position as the top family among the four major families in Donghai.

You can't hit someone who's smiling. Although Xie Bin did some disgusting things on the Genting Terrace, at least he's still keeping a respectable appearance for now.

"You're a respectable person, so we don't need to be so formal. If you feel you've lost money and face, you can come to me for revenge, but you're not allowed to touch anyone around me. That's all I have to say! Farewell!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Yang leaped into the air and disappeared into the vast night in the blink of an eye.

He's in a rush to get to the next event, so he absolutely can't let Xiaobai get a good night's sleep tonight.

Watching Chu Yang leave, Xie Yongquan's warm smile vanished completely.

Xie Bin asked indignantly, "Why treat that convict with such a humble attitude? What about the reputation of the Xie family...?"

“Pah!”

Before he could finish speaking, a loud slap landed on his face.

"When you gambled with that person, did you ever think about the Xie family's reputation? I sent you to the capital to gain experience so you could network with powerful people and learn survival skills from them. And what did you do? You secretly ran back and caused such a huge mess!"

Xie Bin said reluctantly, "Dad, I came back to help Murong Lan this time in order to improve relations with the Murong family."

“Pah!”

Another resounding slap landed on his face.

A fierce glint flashed in Xie Yongquan's eyes as he angrily said, "You're still lying to me! Murong Lan is just an illegitimate daughter of the Murong family. How capable do you think you are to elevate her to such a position? If you don't have that kind of ability, offending a madwoman for her sake is simply inconsiderate!"

"You lust after those two girls, Su Wanning and Murong Lan, do you think I don't know? You want to sleep with women, I don't object. But you, the young master of the Xie family, the future heir, actually went and became someone else's pawn! This is the last time you'll be blinded by lust. If you do it again, you can forget about being the heir!"

These words were like a sharp blade, piercing Xie Bin's most sensitive spot.

His half-brother had never given up on the idea of ​​seizing his inheritance, and he knew very well that his brother was superior to him in every way.

He simply had the advantage of being the eldest son.

"Dad, you're right. I promise I won't do it again."

Xie Yongquan sighed deeply and patted Xie Bin's shoulder lightly.

"Don't underestimate yourself! The Xie family's money isn't so easy to take! From today onwards, you can mobilize the Xie family's resources to support Murong Lan. I want to see how arrogant a mere son-in-law can be after the Su Group falls!"

The midnight wind softened a bit.

On the terrace outside the bedroom, Murong Lan unconsciously stroked the cool stem of a crystal glass, the scarlet wine rippling dangerously in the moonlight.

The fiery red silk nightgown accentuated her breathtaking curves, and the shoulder straps slipped slightly, revealing her delicate collarbone, which only made the melancholy in her eyes appear even deeper.

The night breeze tousled her seaweed-like curls, and the neon lights of the distant city flickered in her unfathomable eyes, like a grand but destined-to-be-extinguished fireworks display.

News of the Jiang family lingered in my mind like a cold snake.

In the reflection in the cup, she saw not only her stunningly beautiful appearance, but also the lonely city of ambition.

"Was I wrong to want everything that was supposed to belong to me?"

"Do I, like other women, have to find a man to depend on?"

"Then how is that any different from being treated as a tool in the Murong family?"

A fierce glint flashed in her eyes, and she lightly raised her delicate hand.

With a "crack", the crystal glass shattered into pieces.

"No!"

"Chu Yang! Don't even think about being a stumbling block in my path! I will crush you under my feet and make you submit! If I can't even conquer a convict who has spent ten years in prison, how can I talk about achieving great things?"

As soon as she finished speaking, two nimble figures appeared on her left and right sides.

"Mr. Murong, has something happened?"

Although their cultivation was restricted by Chu Yang, Luan Feng and Fang Dan still rushed over as quickly as possible after hearing the sound of the wine glass shattering.

"I'm fine! This place is heavily guarded, and I have two experts from the Cloud Palace protecting me. Even if Chu Yang had three heads and six arms, he wouldn't be able to get close to me."

Murong Lan smiled slightly, her expression calm and her tone confident, a stark contrast to her sorrowful demeanor just moments before.

"If I were to request the Palace Master of Yun Palace to take action, what price would I have to pay?"

Fang Dan's expression suddenly turned strange.

"Does the Murong clan intend to ask the Palace Master to deal with Chu Yang?"

"That's right!" Murong Lan said decisively.

Her attitude towards Chu Yang has changed from initial contempt to a degree of respect now.

However, what made her slightly wary was Chu Yang's martial arts cultivation; she was worried that the madman might come looking for her again in the middle of the night at some unknown time.

She didn't want to be naked and have that guy see her completely.

Fang Dan frowned, not expecting that Chu Yang had predicted this whole thing.

Luanfeng gently bit her lower lip, her expression hesitant.

She also hated Chu Yang, wishing she could tear him to pieces.

However, her cultivation level is currently restricted, and she dares not send this news back to the Cloud Palace.

Behind Chu Yang's back, Li Heihu had those two maids film her and Fang Dan in a video that was incredibly embarrassing.

If this gets out, the rumor that she and Fang Dan are a lesbian couple will soon be common knowledge.

She wanted to resist at the time, but being filmed was better than serving those old men in their sixties and seventies.

She also saw through the surveillance footage the old lechers that Li Heihu had brought along, and they used all sorts of tricks.

If I were really taken advantage of by those people, I'd rather just kill myself.

The only option now is to complete the task Chu Yang assigned them.

It's not too late to settle accounts with Chu Yang after he fulfills his promise and restores their cultivation levels.

"President Murong, the Palace Master's personal intervention comes at a very high price. Last time, when the Palace Master was invited to kill a Grandmaster-level expert, someone offered a billion."

Murong Lan immediately became interested.

In her opinion, the best thing would be to settle things with money.

"It takes a billion to kill a Grandmaster? Chu Yang is just an unknown nobody."

Luanfeng smiled slightly, "If the Palace Master were to kill an unknown nobody, the price would be even higher. That would be beneath the Palace Master's dignity. How do you want him to die?"

Murong Lan was taken aback.

"You can... even choose how you die?"

Luanfeng smiled smugly and said, "That can be done according to your request. For example, you can choose to let his whole body explode and die, or have his flesh cut into pieces before he dies."

Hearing about such a cruel method, Murong Lan opened her mouth, somewhat frightened.

"Then... let him die in a way that makes him suffer terribly on his deathbed!"

Luanfeng nodded slightly and said, "Understood! When the time comes, find a remarkable woman who is skilled in the arts of the bedroom, drain him dry, and make him die from exhaustion."

Murong Lan's beautiful lips twitched a few times.

"Is this...killing him, or giving him pleasure?"

Luanfeng said with an air of seriousness, "You don't understand. Dying in extreme pleasure can make him suffer unbearable pain in his dying moments."

Murong Lan, who was still inexperienced in such matters, was completely bewildered. She felt that if she had to spend so much money to choose this way of dying, she might as well spend 100 million to hire a few beautiful female celebrities. She could have just as easily drained Chu Yang's resources, and more importantly, she would have saved money.

She quickly shook her head, realizing her thoughts had wandered off course.

Why would someone who's supposed to be dealing with Chu Yang spend money to let that guy have his fun?

"President Murong, which one will you choose? I'll contact Yun Palace immediately and get you a quote," Luanfeng pressed.

"I...I choose..."
