Top-notch Urban Evil Cultivator

What's going on here?

Is this the second show tonight?

Why are these two the same people performing again?

"No... I'm not seeing things, am I?"

"Mr. Chen's taste is truly...unique..."

"It must be a joke, right?"

...

Listening to the whispers around him, Feng Yuzhi felt goosebumps all over his body.

Those two short words almost made him jump up on the spot, and his whole body went numb.

That look, that tone, that expression—it was absolutely terrifying!

But Chen Mo didn't care about any of that at the moment.

In his eyes and in his heart, there was only Feng Yuzhi in front of him.

Even if he asked me to jump into the sea right now, I would do it without hesitation!

"Yuzhi, you look...so beautiful today..."

Chen Mo murmured, taking a step forward, his eyes glazed over.

Feng Yuzhi jumped back in fright, desperately trying to break free of the hand being held, his whole body trembling:

"Brother Chen! President Chen! Wake up! I'm Feng Yuzhi! The Feng Yuzhi who hangs out with you every day!"

"I know……"

Chen Mo's eyes were glazed over as he took another step forward, a dazed smile playing on his lips.

Chen Xiaoran covered her mouth, her eyes wide open, completely dumbfounded.

She looked at her brother, then at Feng Yuzhi, then at Lin Xuan, her mind completely blank, unable to process what was happening.

Lin Xuan shook his head and walked straight to An Lan's side.

"Shall we go?"

"Mm." An Lan nodded lightly.

The two didn't linger; they left directly, walked through the crowd, and went down the stairs.

Behind them, chaos was left behind.

"Brother, control yourself! Don't do this!"

"Mr. Chen! Mr. Chen, wake up!"

"Brother Chen, please spare me! I really don't like you! Help!"

...

When the cruise ship docked, the two stepped off the ship. A night breeze blew by, carrying the coolness of the river water.

The lights on the shore are reflected on the water, swaying gently with the ripples and breaking into golden spots of light.

The dock was quiet.

An Lan walked beside Lin Xuan, her high heels clicking crisply on the stone slabs.

She was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke.

"Both things that happened tonight, weren't they your doing?"

Lin Xuan smiled and put his hands in his pockets:

"How can this be called playing tricks? I was just joking, that's all."

"Mm." An Lan nodded, without saying anything more.

The two strolled around for a while before returning to the car.

Because Lin Xuan had been drinking, An Lan drove him home.

On the road, she gripped the steering wheel with both hands, her profile clearly defined under the streetlights, exuding a cool and focused aura.

Lin Xuan was sitting in the passenger seat, scrolling through short videos.

Just then, my phone rang.

It's an unfamiliar number, registered in the local area.

He thought for a moment, then answered the call.

"Hello, who is this?"

"Lin Xuan?"

A clear female voice came from the other end of the phone, tinged with anxiety and panic.

Lin Xuan knew who it was as soon as he heard it.

Chen Xiaoran.

"How did you know my phone number?" Lin Xuan smiled.

"Oh, that's not important!"

Chen Xiaoran was extremely anxious and spoke very quickly.

"Um, my brother! He's acting like a madman! All he keeps saying is Feng Yuzhi's name. Feng Yuzhi is so scared he's hiding, and my brother is just pacing around the room!"

"The problem is, she's crying one minute and laughing the next, saying she's going to find him one minute and then saying she loves him so much the next! It's terrifying! What's going on?!"

"I saw a doctor, and they said there's nothing wrong with it?"

Lin Xuan could imagine the scene and couldn't bear to look at it.

"See, I told you your brother's orientation wasn't normal."

"I lost! I lost!"

"Fine, I'll be your girlfriend!"

Chen Xiaoran was in no mood to laugh; she just wanted Chen Mo to get back to normal as soon as possible.

"You must have done it, right? Please, let my brother get back to normal! I'm begging you!"

"Don't talk nonsense, but don't worry."

Lin Xuan spoke slowly.

"Tell him not to see Feng Yuzhi anymore. He'll be fine after a while. Of course, it would be best if he never saw him again."

He added, "Hahaha."

With a smile, Lin Xuan hung up the phone.

How could he possibly let Chen Mo recover so easily?

This time, he's going to make Chen Mo avoid him from now on!

They even avoid An Lan when they see her!

Ideally, he should develop PTSD just thinking about tonight's events and never dare to cause trouble again.

The phone call ended, and the carriage was quiet for a moment.

An Lan suddenly spoke up: "Have you been flirting with that little girl again?"

His voice was flat, revealing no emotion.

Lin Xuan felt a cold wind blow past.

"Who?"

Lin Xuan was taken aback.

An Lan didn't speak, she just looked at the road ahead.

Lin Xuan quickly explained, looking completely innocent:

"No! Mr. An! I'm not a womanizer who falls for every girl I see, am I? That girl is Chen Mo's sister; I just chatted with her a bit!"

"Oh."

"What are you yelling about!"

"It's nothing."

Lin Xuan: ...

By the time the two returned to Binjiang Huafu, it was already past 11 p.m.

The villa was dimly lit.

The floor lamp in the living room was still on, emitting a dim, yellowish light.

Zhao Xueli was already asleep. Her room door was closed, and there was no light; it was pitch black under the door.

Tong Yao hasn't come back yet; she's probably working overtime again.

After getting off the car, An Lan quickly walked towards her room.

Lin Xuan followed behind her, watching her open the door and go inside.

then

With a "bang," the door slammed shut.

The sound of the door locking was clearly audible, a click.

Lin Xuan stood in the corridor, touched his nose, and smiled helplessly.

Why are you still angry?

He returned to his room, washed up, and changed into his pajamas.

Looking at the time, it wasn't even midnight yet.

He sat cross-legged on the bed and began his cultivation.

Now he practices whenever he has a spare moment, and he dares not slack off.

There was nothing he could do; the matter of the Ancient Martial Arts Alliance had been weighing heavily on his mind, like a sword hanging over his head.

Even if he returned to his peak and even broke through to the third level of Qi Refining, he still knew that his situation was very bad.

Those Eight Lineages successors, that Xia Yu, that "recruiter" who might arrive at any time.

These are all potential risks.

True essence circulates slowly within the body.

One cycle, two cycles, three cycles...

Time passed second by second.

Around 12 o'clock, Lin Xuan was circulating his internal energy when suddenly he opened his eyes.

There were footsteps outside the door.

The sound was so soft that ordinary people couldn't hear it at all.

However, Lin Xuan's five senses are now very sharp, and he can perceive the movements around him even while cultivating.

Lin Xuan frowned.

who is it?

Zhao Xueli is asleep, Tong Yao hasn't come back yet, and An Lan is in her own room.

He hesitated for a moment, then remained silent, quickly lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and pretended to be asleep.

Breathe calmly, relax your body, and drift off to sleep.

He wanted to see who it was!

Lin Xuan slowed his breathing, but his ears were perked up, trying to catch every subtle sound.

The sound of the doorknob turning.

Very lightly, very slowly, very carefully.

The door was pushed open a crack, letting in a sliver of light from the corridor.

Lin Xuan's heart tightened, and his true essence was already circulating secretly within his body, ready to strike at any moment.
