The improved female villains regained their memories.

"Hey, what are you reading?"

"It's nothing, is it wrong to talk to yourself?"

"Playing tricks and deception."

She snorted and looked into the distance, saying in surprise, "Huh, the little dwarf has stood up?"

Indeed, not far away, lightning flashed brightly, Luo Benmo's silver hair flew wildly, and Yang Pingsheng's immortal artifact peeled away continuously until it finally disappeared.

"To reverse the injury onto the opponent, that's impressive. Is it a power of a celestial artifact?"

Dark clouds gathered, and streaks of lightning circled around Luo Benmo. She gradually floated up like a goddess, looking down at Yang Pingsheng from above.

"Unfortunately, such childish abilities are useless against me. It's true that the Thunder Spirit Root is domineering and not good at healing, but I can still temporarily seal my wounds. The damage I just inflicted on you was not fatal, so you can't trade injuries for injuries and win."

The thunder dragon shrank continuously, turning into a thunder serpent that coiled around Luo Benmo's fist. She said coldly, "Admit defeat, call me sister, and then come with me."

Yang Pingsheng shook his head: "Chief, we haven't decided the winner yet."

The word "leader" made Luo Benmo's pupils shrink, and he said angrily, "Fine, I'll make you admit defeat wholeheartedly."

After saying that, she swooped down and punched Yang Pingsheng in the chest.

Yang Pingsheng watched calmly, slightly turning his body to align his heart with Luo Benmo's fist.

Luo Benmo naturally realized that Yang Pingsheng had neither spiritual energy to protect him nor could he summon his immortal artifact again. In his haste, he could only forcibly withdraw his spiritual energy. Therefore, when they actually collided, it was only Luo Benmo's small fist that made the impact.

She looked up at Yang Pingsheng in disbelief: "Are you crazy?"

Yang Pingsheng said nothing, but grabbed Luo Benmo's hand and made a grappling motion.

Just as Luo Benmo was about to struggle, he heard Yang Pingsheng speak in a low voice: "Leader, I have no spiritual energy now, and you have also broken the immortal artifact. If you unleash your spiritual energy, I will die."

Luo Benmo's body stiffened.

Just as she was about to break free with brute force, Yang Pingsheng continued, "If the leader uses brute force, I can only lock the leader from behind. In that case, the leader can tear me apart with force. Otherwise, you won't be able to break free either."

"I……"

"Of course, the leader could also find a way to cripple my hands and feet, but if that happens, the one hiding nearby will make a move. The leader can use spiritual energy to retaliate, but then I will definitely die."

Luo Benmo stopped moving.

Yang Pingsheng continued, "Sister, listen to me, admit defeat obediently, and when we get back, your brother will make you a new wood carving."

There was no response for a long time.

"sister?"

He was slightly stunned, looked down, and then realized that Luo Benmo was looking up at him, his bright eyes filled with tears.

"Waaah... You're bullying me, you're cheating, this isn't fair..."

She burst into tears.

Yang Pingsheng was stunned; he hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

In the distance, Xu Anlu breathed a sigh of relief, while Xu Anyin showed a disdainful attitude.

Su Murong gave a thumbs up: "You really are a doctor. You can win so shamelessly. I've learned something."

Song Panning rubbed her temples, feeling the veins bulging.

She had wondered what Yang Pingsheng was up to by suddenly leaving last night and challenging Luo Benmo today. Turns out it was something else entirely.

"Never mind, doing this is indeed his advantage."

She turned her head, looked at the grinning Su Murong, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is it funny?"

"It's hilarious! Look at that dwarf crying, it's a rare sight indeed. Zhuque, quick, is there any secret method to capture this scene on camera?"

Zhuque looked up helplessly: "My lord, there is no such secret method."

"Tsk, what a pity." Su Murong smacked his lips.

Song Panning, standing next to her, sneered and poured cold water on her: "You're laughing (swear words censored), it'll be your turn soon."

"What about me?"

"Didn't you see? Yang Pingsheng wants us to obey his orders. He knows that Luo Benmo is a man who values ​​rules and regulations, and he also knows that Luo Benmo won't kill him, so he's using such a shameless method to win against him."

Under the astonished gazes of Xu Anlu, Xu Anyin, and Su Murong, Song Panning spoke:

“He beat Luo Benmo using this method, so he will try to beat us using the same method next.”

"He knows that each of us has a special bond with him, so he would never kill us. Therefore, he can use this method without restraint. And his purpose in doing so, simply put, is—"

"—This guy wants to be our leader."

Chapter 378 Feelings Have No Reason

When Song Panning said this, apart from Xu Anyin, the other two didn't take it seriously.

Xu Anlu remained silent, while Su Murong rested his chin on his hand and teased, "If that's the case, then that's great. I'll wait and see. I hope the doctor can make me cry a lot."

Song Panning paused, suddenly realizing what kind of people these two were.

She had already laid the groundwork for Yang Pingsheng to deal with these people (see Chapters 312 to 314 of Volume 4). Theoretically, apart from the most troublesome Luo Benmo, Yang Pingsheng only needed to explain his ideas and then push forward smoothly.

Xu Anlu and Su Murong were actually quite happy to see Yang Pingsheng like this. Xu Anyin was a spirit, and in some ways, she followed her sister's lead.

Moreover, even he himself...

Song Panning immediately blushed and stormed off.

Xu Anyin watched Song Panning fly away with her puffed-up cheeks, puzzled, and asked curiously, "What's wrong with her?"

Su Murong chuckled: "The one who is good at playing with eagles has been used by the eagles. Originally, someone wanted to use eagles to control us, but now the eagles are starting to move based on someone's plan. Do you think that person will be able to break through his defenses?"

"What do you mean?"

Seeing Xu Anyin's stupid look, Xu Anlu didn't bother to explain, and Su Murong didn't bother to explain either. He touched the Vermilion Bird below and said, "Let's go back. Let's wait for the doctor to come and make me cry."

"Yes, my lord."

After Su Murong left, Xu Anlu did not wait any longer. She said, "Xiao Yin, let's go," and then left with Xu An Yin.

What happened next was nothing interesting.

Yang Pingsheng went to the wonton stall with Luo Benmo, and when he returned, he had become the leader of the den of villains.

As a matter of course, Luo Benmo was demoted to deputy leader. Tie Niu and Ling Hou remained silent about this result, while Du Lang sensed something but ultimately kept quiet.

Having become the leader, Yang Pingsheng also learned about Luo Benmo's entire plan.

[Operation Blood Sea]

To put it bluntly, it's very similar to the plan of the Second World back then: disperse all the people, then have a crazy baby-making frenzy, and then have more babies. Once everyone has a Blood Spirit Root, Luo Benmo will suddenly rise up and unify the Qian Kingdom.

Simple and direct, it certainly fits Luo Benmo's style.

The villains have already infiltrated the royal family. Not only that, they are also expanding their influence in the east. You could say that Blood Spirit Roots are like cockroaches. When you see one or two in the sun, it means that the cockroach nest has already filled the dark corners.

The wicked's den has been completely infiltrated to the east.

Looking at the map of the power distribution presented by Lone Wolf, Yang Pingsheng felt his scalp tingle. Luo Benmo was taking action in the name of religion, and his efficiency was simply outrageous. The map was covered with dense red dots, all of which were the breeding grounds of their Blood Spirit Cult.

He looked up and asked Lone Wolf, "What is the Holy Son Project?"

Lone Wolf was about to speak when he turned around and saw Luo Benmo's angry glare. Under pressure, he could only bite the bullet and answer, "It's an abandoned plan. The leader doesn't need to worry about it."

Not at all. This plan was originally intended to utilize Yang Pingsheng, but it seems that Luo Benmo will have no chance to use him now.

After taking stock of Luo Benmo's forces, Yang Pingsheng had a general idea of ​​their strength.

Luo Benmo is indeed very capable and her sphere of influence is quite wide, but if it really comes down to a fight, she might not be able to defeat the other female villains. Xu Anlu is hiding an empire, and Yang Luoyi is backed by the entire Wan Jin Merchant Guild, and they also have cooperation with the royal family. Luo Benmo's power needs to lie low for a longer period of time before her advantages become apparent.

More importantly, Luo Benmo lacks high-end combat power. In the den of villains, besides her, there are very few people who can fight.

But this aspect is not insurmountable, Yang Pingsheng thought to himself.

With a God's-eye view, he saw things much more clearly.

-------------

A few days later.

After appeasing Luo Benmo and redeploying the forces of the villainous den, Yang Pingsheng did not rush to find other female villains. Instead, he secretly cultivated with Wen Shihan.

Using his memories from the previous encounter, and without Song Panning's help, Yang Ping managed to force Wen Shihan to replicate the [Nine-Nine-Eighty-One] cultivation formation.

He knew nothing about formations, but unfortunately, his memory of how to construct the formation was so clear that he was able to replicate it even without Song Panning's guidance.

There are many reasons for doing this.

Firstly, since Song Panning wants to seize the dragon vein, she will inevitably come to him. During this process, he should try to avoid contact with other female villains and lay the groundwork for getting back to dealing with Song Panning.

Secondly, replicating this formation will shorten the time it takes for Song Panning to rebuild it. Moreover, unlike last time, Yang Pingsheng plans to extend the formation to all female villains this time.

Since I can't improve my strength much in a short time, I'll let them improve.

Thirdly, and most importantly.

"Brother, we succeeded!"

Inside the Immortal Valley, Wen Shihan excitedly shouted to Yang Pingsheng.

She was wearing Yang Pingsheng's immortal artifact, and the blade in her hand, named Pingsheng, emitted an earthy yellow light, making it seem from a distance that Wen Shihan had an earth elemental root.

Yang Pingsheng smiled and said to her, "Give it a try."

"it is good!"

The blade was raised and cleaved towards the mountain peak not far away.

The crescent moon formed by the previous yin energy was gone, and the earthy yellow light disappeared into the distant mountain peaks, silent and still.

However, the next second, the mountain trembled, gradually corroded by the internal yin energy, and collapsed layer by layer.

A complex killing move – a smile concealing a dagger.

"Brother, you're simply a genius!" She excitedly rushed to Yang Pingsheng. "I've never heard of anyone being able to let someone else use their own immortal artifact, let alone develop it to this extent. Brother, you're really amazing!"

"Moreover, your immortal artifact can perfectly fuse our spiritual roots together, making the combined killing moves even more difficult to break. The earth stores yin energy, brother, no one is more suitable to combine with your spiritual roots than me!"

He looked down, the light and shadow swaying through the leaves, casting shadows on Wen Shihan's face. His black hair fluttered in the wind, like the owner's happy interest. His bright eyes seemed to be misty, reminding Yang Pingsheng of a big dog longing for its owner's praise.
