Dual-wielding! 100x proficiency, I'll grind my way to godhood!

Chen Mo gave Wang Pangzi and Liu Jingting a few perfunctory replies, telling them to come to the shop again at 7 PM, and then sent them away.

The shop doors closed, and the hustle and bustle of the Tianxuan Continent completely faded away.

A flash of light and shadow appeared before Chen Mo's eyes, and the next second he was back in his bedroom at Lan Xing's home.

Chen Mo entered the living room, where Lu Xingyao was nestled on the sofa scrolling through Douyin, her fingertips constantly swiping the screen. When she saw Chen Mo suddenly appear, she excitedly jumped onto him.

"You scumbag! Weren't you supposed to be in seclusion? Why did you suddenly show up?"

Chen Mo supported her buttocks and gently pinched them; they were very elastic.

"Of course I came out because I missed you."

Lu Xingyao wrapped her arms around his neck, rolled her eyes, and pouted.

"Bullshit! I don't believe you! You never tell the truth, you're always lying to me!"

Chen Mo looked at her lips and kissed them directly, only releasing her after a long while.

"So, are you willing to be lied to by me?"

Lu Xingyao's face flushed red as she buried her head in his neck and whispered.

"willing."

Chen Mo carried her to the sofa.

"Where is Yun Shu?"

"He's cultivating."

Chen Mo took out his phone and quickly tapped the screen to send Ye Yunshu a purchasing message.

Twenty cases of inferior counterfeit liquor and one hundred bottles of fake medicinal pills, to be obtained within two hours.

Lu Xingyao glanced at the message and immediately became interested.

"Brother Mo, are you going to trick someone again?"

Chen Mo smiled faintly, neither confirming nor denying.

"There are a few people who want to take advantage of me, so I'll prepare some nice things for them."

Seeing that Chen Mo didn't continue, Lu Xingyao wisely refrained from asking further questions.

Chen Mo didn't give her a chance to ask any more questions, and rolled over and pinned her down.

"How has your cultivation been during my seclusion these past few days?"

"You've made great progress. Why don't you check it out for me?"

"An investigation is necessary; a thorough investigation is required."

A few minutes later, Ye Yunshu also came to the living room, and Chen Mo pulled her over to check on her together.

The living room remained quiet, with only the faint sound of a phone video playing.

The two have made great progress in their cultivation and will soon enter the Qi and Blood Realm.

Two hours later, Ye Yunshu's phone rang.

The goods had been delivered. The workers carried boxes of inferior counterfeit liquor and bottles of blue sugar tablets to the warehouse, arranged them neatly, and then left.

Ye Yunshu stepped forward and counted the items twice to confirm that there were no problems with the quantity. Then she turned to Chen Mo and spoke.

"Brother Mo, the items and quantities are correct."

Chen Mo stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over all the goods. With a thought, he instantly stored everything into his bronze ring.

"Yes, you've worked hard. I'll be going into seclusion for a few more days. You all continue your cultivation diligently."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the bedroom, locked the door, and prepared to return to Tianxuan Continent.

The light and shadow shifted once more, and a familiar, ancient atmosphere washed over him; he had returned to his shop on the Tianxuan Continent.

Chen Mo casually opened a case of counterfeit liquor and unscrewed the bottle cap.

A strong, pungent smell of methanol wafted out instantly, making people frown slightly.

Would anyone actually drink this stuff?

Will I get poisoned if I drink it?

An image immediately popped into his mind.

If Shen Ze were to foolishly bring this batch of fake wine back to the county town and present it to his father as top-quality wine, the head of the Shen family would likely feel nauseous and vomit on the spot after the first cup, losing all face.

Thinking of this, Chen Mo gave a faint smile.

He put down the wine bottle and opened a bottle of sugar tablets.

The tiny blue sugar tablets, in shape, size, and color, are almost identical to the secret medicine, making them virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. A closer sniff reveals a distinct, sweet watermelon aroma.

He picked up a small piece and put it in his mouth. It was all sweet; it was just an ordinary edible sugar tablet.

It's harmless, non-toxic, and won't kill you; its only function is—completely useless.

Chen Mo leaned against the counter, his fingertips tracing the candy pieces, several ruthless plans flashing through his mind, which he then rejected one by one.

If he had enough time, he had plenty of ways to deal with Shen Ze harshly.

Added with arsenic?

The medicine is too potent, and it has an unpleasant taste when ingested, making it easily noticeable and too conspicuous.

Mixed with laxatives?

Although the effect was subtle, he didn't have any readily available materials, and there wasn't enough time to procure them on the spot.

It wasn't that he was soft-hearted or didn't want to be ruthless.

There's just not enough time. I'll go back to Earth next time to grind my medicine-making skill, then it'll be even more fun to scam people later.

This batch of counterfeit goods is the safest, most reliable, and most effective scheme.

Shen Ze and his two companions made a high-profile appearance at his door, relying on their family background to forcibly seize his belongings, causing a scene that became known throughout the city.

You like to be high-profile, huh? We'll add fuel to the fire then.

Tomorrow he will make a big show of it at the store entrance, handing over all the counterfeit goods to the three men, so that the whole city can see it.

When others try them out and find they are all fake or defective, all the anger and resentment they've accumulated will be directed at Shen Ze and his two companions.

But Chen Mo was able to escape unscathed.

A cold glint flashed in Chen Mo's eyes as he finalized his plan for tomorrow.

He wants to hold a special public delivery ceremony.

He handed the batch of counterfeit goods to Shen Ze in front of everyone, watching them leave triumphantly and under the spotlight.

Once they were gone and the whole city was buzzing with discussion, he announced in public that all the cultivation techniques he had previously ordered would be refunded.

He simultaneously elevated his own reputation while ruthlessly humiliating Shen Ze and the other two.

It brings both fame and fortune, and can also ruin the reputation of your opponents.

The plan was finalized.

Just then, there was a gentle knock on the door to the backyard of the shop.

Three strikes, two long and one short.

It is Wang Fucheng.

Chen Mo regained his composure and went to open the door for Wang Fucheng.

Upon entering the backyard, Wang Fucheng first bowed respectfully to Chen Mo.

As always, he remained respectful and did not change his attitude even after learning Chen Mo's identity.

Chen Mo nodded.

Wang Fucheng stepped forward, volunteering to help Chen Mo resolve the problem.

"Young master, I heard that Shen Ze brought men to the shop today to steal the secret medicine and wine. Should I go and deal with those three tonight...?"

Before Wang Fucheng could finish speaking, he made a gesture of raising his hand to slit his throat.

Chen Mo looked at him calmly and asked a question in return.

"You killed Shen Ze and the other two? Did you consider the consequences?"

Wang Fucheng was taken aback.

"Shen Ze and the other two come from prominent families in the county. If they die, their families will definitely investigate thoroughly. If the investigation leads back to you, you will surely die."

Chen Mo's gaze was indifferent, and his tone was calm yet imposing.

Aren't you afraid?

Upon hearing this, Wang Fucheng's expression became even more solemn. He immediately bowed and clasped his hands in a resolute manner, without the slightest hesitation.

"I am not afraid!"

"My life, from the day I followed you in Qing Shi Town, belongs to you!"

"The revenge of a mere aristocratic family is nothing to fear. As long as I can share your burdens and rid you of this calamity, even if it means my own destruction and death, I will have no regrets!"

Chen Mo looked at him quietly and nodded in satisfaction.

"No need to kill."

"I have better ways to deal with these three people."

"You just need to come here at 7 PM tonight and wait for orders."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Wang Fucheng solemnly cupped his hands in greeting, then turned and left.

Inside the shop, silence returned.

Chen Mo closed his eyes and pondered in the courtyard, reviewing every detail of tomorrow's plan in his mind to ensure that nothing went wrong.

Just then, there was another knock on the back door.

P.S.: Is something big about to happen? Why is it still falling? I'm losing so much money.
