Top-notch Urban Evil Cultivator

early morning.

This is a top-tier presidential suite located on the top floor of Jiangzhou's most luxurious hotel. The room rate for one night is enough for an average person to earn for half a year.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is Jiangzhou's most beautiful city skyline, and sunlight shines in, casting dappled shadows on the carpet.

Xia Yu woke up in a large bed and stretched comfortably.

On either side of him lay a girl, with similar appearances and delicate features; they were actually twins.

The two were fast asleep, their long hair spread out on the pillows, their skin as white as jade, a very pleasing sight, like a scene from a magazine.

Xia Yu looked at them, a satisfied smile playing on his lips.

Last night's battle went well.

"hiss..."

As soon as he moved to get out of bed, he felt a sharp pain in his lower back, as if he had been punched or twisted hard by something.

Xia Yu was stunned for a moment.

What happened?

Did I expend too much energy last night?

No, it's only been a little over two hours.

With his physical condition, this amount of exercise is nothing; he used to be able to do three or four hours without any problem.

He rubbed his lower back, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Just as she was about to get up, the twins beside her also woke up.

They opened their eyes, saw Xia Yu, and sweet smiles immediately appeared on their faces.

The two women pounced on him softly, their warm bodies pressed against his, their fingers moving erratically across his chest and down his body.

"Young Master, you're awake so early?"

"Stay with us a little longer~" she pleaded sweetly.

"I wasn't done having fun yesterday~" another pouted.

That voice was soft, sweet, and charming, enough to melt your heart.

Before long, Xia Yu got angry.

He wanted to rest properly, but he couldn't resist.

He rolled over, pinning the two of them beneath him, and said with a laugh:

"You two haven't surrendered yet! You little devils, you're asking for it!"

The twins giggled, instantly filling the room with a warm, spring-like atmosphere and constant laughter.

Half an hour later.

Spring is in full bloom.

Xia Yu suddenly stopped, her movements froze, and the expression on her face solidified.

"Young Master, what's wrong?"

"Why did you stop? Oh, is the young master tired? All..."

The twins asked in confusion, "Why did it stop so soon after it just started?"

Xia Yu clutched his waist, looking embarrassed, with fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Something's wrong, I think I've strained my back!"

He tried to move, and a sharp pain shot through his lower back, like being pricked by a needle, or like his muscles were being torn apart.

No!

I am a successor of ancient martial arts, and my physical fitness is far superior to that of ordinary people. How could I possibly strain my back?

That shouldn't be happening!

The twins paused for a moment, then tenderly comforted him. One gently massaged his lower back, while the other patted his back softly, as if soothing a child.

"It's alright, young master, come again next time~"

"Yes, it's alright, you'll be fine after a rest, don't worry~"

"If you really can't do it, don't move, we'll do it."

Xia Yu: ...

You might as well not offer any comfort at all!

He felt his male dignity had been brutally attacked, especially in front of two beautiful women.

"Next time, next time for sure."

A few minutes later, Xia Yu got dressed, clutched her back, and got out of bed.

They moved very carefully.

He was just about to stretch his body, loosen his muscles and joints, and relieve the soreness in his lower back.

Unexpectedly, after only a couple of stretches, his legs gave way and he collapsed to the ground.

With a loud "thud," he fell hard, landing face-first.

The twins were startled when they saw him. They quickly jumped off the bed, ran barefoot over to help him up, their faces full of tension and concern.

"Young Master, what happened to you? Should we go to the hospital?"

"Yes, your complexion isn't good, and your lips are pale."

"Was it because it lasted too long last night?"

Xia Yu also looked puzzled, waved his hand, and tried his best to maintain his composure:

"It's nothing, I'm probably just...tired."

He said that, but he was secretly having doubts.

Something is wrong!

I've lived for so many years and I've never felt this weak before!

Last night it was only two hours, and today I have a backache and weak legs. This is too outrageous.

Is it really because he's old? That can't be, he's only in his twenties.

"Never mind, let's rest for a while."

He spoke to the twins with a hint of helplessness in his voice.

"Go and prepare some breakfast for me, um... something healthy."

"good!"

The twins nodded in unison and began to get dressed.

The two moved swiftly, leaving the room one after the other, leaving Xia Yu alone sitting on the sofa.

Xia Yu leaned back on the sofa, feeling uneasy, as if something was missing.

The feeling was subtle, hard to describe, but it was just unsettling.

He was puzzled for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

"Has something happened?"

Thinking about it, he reached for his phone on the coffee table, intending to call and ask what was going on, to see if anything had happened at home.

My hand slipped!

The phone slipped from my hand, flipped in the air, traced a perfect parabola, and landed on the bed with a few bounces.

Then it landed precisely in the narrow gap between the bed and the bedside table.

Xia Yu: ...

He stood there, staring at the spot where his phone had disappeared, speechless for a moment.

He took a deep breath and bent down to reach for his phone.

He reached his hand into the gap, and it was just a hair's breadth away.

Just when he was about to touch it, Xia Yu exerted all his strength.

boom!

He slammed his head against the bedside table, making a solid impact and seeing stars.

"Depend on!!"

Xia Yu clutched his forehead, wincing in pain, tears welling in his eyes.

He finally sensed that something was wrong.

Although they were all small things.

It could be too abnormal, especially for him!

How could a martial arts master with keen senses and agile skills make such basic mistakes repeatedly?

"Is someone targeting me?"

He muttered to himself, his brows furrowed, and his eyes sharpened.

"This kind of clandestine method... could it be from the Southern faction? They love to use these underhanded tactics, but... I haven't offended them!"

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed, and a sense of vigilance rose in his heart.

He took out his phone and, without hesitation, made a call home.

"Hey, it's me, Xia Yu. I feel... something's not right. I can't quite put my finger on it, but maybe someone's trying to hurt me."

"Yes, it's in Jiangzhou."

"Okay, I'll keep things quiet for a while and wait for you to come over."

.

On the other side, inside the Binjiang Huafu villas.

After Lin Xuan finished using the "Absorption" technique, he felt refreshed.

Although I can't quite put my finger on what changes have occurred, I feel very comfortable.

It felt like I had just finished a spa treatment or taken a hot bath, leaving me feeling completely relaxed.

"Good."

A smile played on his lips; he was in a great mood.

"I'll take a drag whenever I have a spare moment!"

He closed his eyes and sensed the Soul-Chasing Technique imprint in his mind.

Xia Yu's light spot was still there, but it seemed to be a little dimmer than before.

It could also be an illusion.

But who cares? I'm not losing anything anyway. Whatever the effect, I'll just take it first.
