Villains: Starting with the Landlady

"Damn it, what are you crying for! I'm not dead yet, and you're all going to treat me like royalty?"

After he said that, many women burst into laughter through their tears. Ling Yun also briefly explained the reason for his disappearance and told them not to make a scene, as he had been doing very secretive things. He said that if he did this, people would immediately start investigating what he had done, and that would be bad if things went wrong.

"I understand, Xiaoyun. But it would be good if you could let us know if you were leaving in the future." Fu Xuehui didn't cry. She was sitting at home and breathed a sigh of relief. Su Qingya had almost turned against her these past few days, which made her feel guilty for a few days.

"Aunt Xuehui, I understand, I won't do it again."

This was purely accidental. Even if I went to other worlds, it wouldn't interfere with things in the real world, but the secret realm is obviously not like that.

Today is already Saturday, October 14th. It's really scary that I've disappeared for three days without a word.

Just then, Bellamy's face appeared in Ling Yun's video, and all the women were stunned.

"Lord Lingyun, what...what is this?"

"This is called a cell phone. Basically, as long as you're still on Earth, you can communicate in real time."

"Even if we're thousands of miles apart?"

"Well, there are so many satellites now, there's basically a signal everywhere... except for your island, of course."

Seeing Bellamy and Ling Yun acting so intimately, Su Jinyao said irritably, "So we were worried sick about you, and you just ran off to some remote mountain forest to pick up some girl?"

"Let's talk about it when we get back. The whole thing is a bit complicated, and it's not just a matter involving one or two women."

"Not just one or two? You little bastard, if you don't come back tonight, don't touch me again!" Xia Lan said angrily, then hung up the phone.

Then the other women followed suit, making harsh remarks before leaving the video.

"I'm sorry, Lord Lingyun, it seems I've caused them to misunderstand?"

Bellamy looked apologetic, but Ling Yun nonchalantly hugged her and kissed her: "It's okay, they were all bark and no bite. It was my fault this time, I'll make it up to them when we get back."

Lyle saw his mother and Lingyun huddled together, so he ran over and lay down in the crook of his other arm.

The other women from the Fairy Realm watched the three men's actions and sat quietly, chatting amongst themselves.

Before long, a luxury yacht several hundred meters long arrived.

This luxurious yacht was a gift from Su Qingya to Ling Yun on his 18th birthday. It was built several years ago at a cost of hundreds of millions of Chinese Yuan, making it a veritable mobile city.

However, Lingyun used to be very low-key and didn't like this kind of overly flamboyant life, so he just kept living frugally and spent money to hire someone to take care of him.

Ling Ruoxue was unaware of this; upon hearing from the boss that there were many people, she simply drove this big vehicle over.

The modern, high-tech luxury yacht took the women by surprise. Once on board, they looked around, touching and patting everything, but were very careful not to break anything.

Ling Ruoxue was steering the boat, which was boarded by Mengxi and the other women.

"Boss, you're back!"

Mengxi snuggled into Lingyun's arms, and Lingyun kissed her forehead a few times before saying, "Send a message to Sun Yichen and tell him to go find Li Zishi in Jiang Province."

"I already sent him!"

Mengxi was the most lively of the three girls, and her style of dress was completely different. As the weather was getting cooler, she wore a woolen plaid coat over a pink shirt. Lingyun quickly led her back to his private lounge.

"Hurry up, boss! I've been feeling like there's something wrong with the authentication pattern lately!"

Chapter 188 Plunder and Transformation! [Bonus Chapter]

After Ling Yun and Ling Mengxi had been intimate for a while, the luxury yacht docked.

The Yangtze River and the sea are interconnected. The large creature that should have appeared at sea is now on the shore, which should have attracted a lot of attention.

However, because the port had been cleared out in advance, only the Su and Sun families were present.

Several buses arrived and took the women to a hotel owned by the Sun family. The hotel was originally vacant and used to entertain VIPs, but now it became the place where the women from the Fairy Spirit Secret Realm were housed.

To Ling Yun's surprise, no sooner had he arrived than several women, led by Su Qingya, who were close to him, also arrived at the scene.

They stared in surprise at the women getting out of the cars, and seeing how radiant each of them was, they couldn't help but surround Ling Yun and indulge in a good dose of jealousy.

"Alright, alright, you guys really have a lot of free time, huh? You're so free to come and arrest me instead of going to work?"

"It's the weekend! Why go to work or school today!"

Qi Jingjing clung to his arm, her little mouth practically dripping with sweetness. Bellamy didn't follow the other women inside; instead, he stood not far from Ling Yun, waiting for the other women to gradually quiet down before slowly strolling over.

"Hello, I am Bellamy, the Grand Elder of the Fairy Spirit Realm."

This self-introduction left the women looking at each other in bewilderment, until Su Jinyao finally spoke first.

"Hey lady, are you playing some kind of new role-playing game?"

Bellamy tilted his head, indicating he didn't understand the words she was saying. Then, at Ling Yun's prompting, he took out a bracelet made of twigs from his pocket and put it on. A wisp of emerald green particles emanated from the bracelet, covering Bellamy's palm.

The girls thought she was performing magic, but then Bellamy waved her hand at Xia Lan, who was the smallest of the girls. Xia Lan immediately felt herself being enveloped by something, and her body slowly floated up, more than 10 centimeters off the ground!

The girls scattered immediately, staying at least ten meters away from Bellamy, not daring to approach her at all.

Xia Lan was also terrified, looking at Ling Yun with pleading eyes. The young man nodded to Bellamy, and the Grand Elder put Xia Lan down again.

"Now, can you believe that I'm really doing something very important?"

The girls nodded repeatedly. Qi Jingjing carefully walked to Bellamy's side and reached out to touch the fallen branch bracelet.

"Bellamy, this... is amazing!"

"The powerful thing isn't the bracelet, it's the person." Ling Yun naturally put his arm around Bellamy's slender waist. To be honest, although Bellamy was no match for him in a real fight, Bellamy's abilities were truly amazing, something he couldn't do at this stage.

He gathered the women together and quietly explained some of the island's ecology.

"mom!"

Lyle put down her luggage and ran out. Seeing the girls staring at her, she wasn't embarrassed at all. Instead, she smiled and greeted them, "Hello, sisters, my name is Lyle!"

The Celestial Realm has no concept of monogamy; there hasn't been a single man in thousands of years, and the idea of ​​marriage simply doesn't exist there.

“This is Elder Bellamy’s daughter. Don’t ask who she was born to; she’s just reproduced on her own.” Ling Yun shrugged. “Qingya, there’s a real gold mine in the Immortal Spirit Secret Realm. It’s a real mine that can at least recoup the cost of my yacht. Arrange for people to go up and mine it.”

"I just heard Bellamy say that there are only women on the island, right?" Su Qingya was quite sensitive to these things and immediately asked.

"Yes, and apart from Lord Lingyun, no other man will be able to go up there in the future; the Mother Tree has set up a barrier."

"It just so happens that our company has a capable female manager in a related industry, and now that everything is fully mechanized, we only need to assign a few female engineers, so it's not that difficult."

"If possible, the women on our island can also help; they are all very strong!"

Since Bellamy had said so, Su Qingya believed that the strength she was referring to was probably at least that of a Hercules, so she naturally nodded in agreement: "If those sisters are willing to help, I won't treat them unfairly."

“Well, they’re not cheap labor either!” Bellamy smiled slightly, and the shrewdness in his eyes alerted Su Qingya.

The two women then discussed the cooperation details in detail, while Ling Yun, surrounded by the other women, went to the presidential suite on the top floor of the hotel, ready to teach him a lesson together...

At noon, everyone had lunch at the hotel.

Unlike the purely natural ingredients in the Fairy Spirit Secret Realm, the richer cooking techniques and some ingredients not found on the island made the women exclaim with delight.

In the afternoon, led by several women, they stormed the large square, directly boosting the sales of all the women's products stores in the square that day, and everyone treated them like VIPs.

Ling Yun didn't get involved in these matters. Instead, he went inside the company to check on the progress of the ointment formula he had developed.

"Boss, this batch of ointment is expected to be officially launched next month. The sales department is asking if we should invest more in advertising, but they're worried about Guan Ziming turning against us..."

"It's alright, I'll go find Guan Ziming later."

My mental suggestion is already at LV4, so I'm not afraid that Guan Ziming, who has lost his luck value, can cause any trouble. He should just work honestly for me.

As he left satisfied, news of his victory from Sun Yichen's side had already arrived.

[Congratulations, Master, on successfully plundering the 10th "Protagonist," Li Zishi, and gaining the "Disappearance into the Dust" ability! Because of the cumulative plundering of ten protagonists, the "Search" function has been enhanced, adding new items. Furthermore, future plundering will be strengthened; whenever a "Protagonist's" luck reaches zero, the plundering effect will be triggered directly, regardless of distance!]

[Sun Yichen's assistance in the plundering has increased his current Luck Value by 200 points, bringing it to 1200! Furthermore, every time a "protagonist" is plundered by the master, their Luck Value will be distributed to his underlings. The master doesn't need to intervene; once they discover the other party is a "protagonist," they will proactively help the master weaken that party's Luck Value, and this will also trigger the "Villain's Heart" critical hit effect!]

Finally, manpower has been freed up, and efficiency has been increased. Once Guan Ziming is also turned into one of his underlings, those so-called "protagonists" will probably be weakened by his underlings and then handed over to him whenever they appear.

However, what are the effects of the enhanced "Search" function?

Ling Yun decided to try going to Guan Ziming first, when he inadvertently saw Luo Xiaofeng, who had asked for his contact information last time, walk past him.

Name: Luo Xiaofeng

Age: 25, ☆

[Value: 163, C]

[Rating: 95]

[Combat Strength: F-]

[Affection: Admiration]

It seems there's an extra "☆" after the age?

[Master, "☆" represents chastity, while "★" represents loss, making it easier for you to distinguish between them. Women like Maya and Zong Qiaona, although they had daughters, initially belonged to the "☆" category, but now, after being taken advantage of by you, they've become "★".]

I see. This is a special favor for him. In the future, if he wants to know the true situation of a certain woman, he can find out at a glance.

Chapter 189 Mysterious Master

"President Ling, you're back!"

Luo Xiaofeng turned around and was overjoyed to see Ling Yun.

Although Su Qingya did not publicly announce that Ling Yun had disappeared, as her personal secretary, she overheard some of the conversations between Ling Yun and other women on the phone.

"Okay, work hard and keep it up!"

Ling Yun smiled slightly at her and patted her hair, which made Luo Xiaofeng extremely excited.

Ling Yun rode in Ling Yaxuan's car to find Guan Ziming. With his current minor mastery of Qi cultivation and LV4 mental suggestion, Guan Ziming was almost powerless to resist. Although his basic luck value was not low, and he had visited a famous master and learned some protective techniques, Ling Yun still raised his favorability to "die-hard (shared affection)".

As for Li Zishi, since he was indeed of no use, Ling Yun had no interest in dealing with him and just let him live in peace.

After all, weakening the "protagonist's" luck value depends on your own ability. Li Zishi has nothing and is not of great use.

Looking at Guan Ziming, who resembled a fanatical believer, Ling Yun sat opposite him, crossed his legs, and asked, "How strong is your master? What can he do?"

Guan Ziming's initial impression of his master at Tianjiu Mountain was roughly one of "loyalty (or admiration)," which was naturally not as strong as his unwavering loyalty to Ling Yun. Therefore, he readily confessed, "Master's strength is unfathomable. My junior brother Zhao Qian and I have probably only learned the tip of the iceberg. He is skilled in medicine and ancient martial arts, and even has some knowledge of certain legendary mysterious techniques. Moreover, he was already an adult in the early days of the founding of the Dragon Kingdom and is extremely familiar with the lifestyle of the feudal dynasties of the past, which is still in use today. Therefore, I dare to estimate that he is probably close to two hundred years old!"

The mysterious 200-year-old master, Guan Ziming and Zhao Qian only followed him for a year and a half before descending the mountain. If they hadn't met Ling Yun, they probably would have shone brightly.

So either he can mass-produce "protagonists," or he has a keen eye and recognizes these people with great fortune.

Ling Yun decided to personally meet this mysterious person and find out more about him.

"This is where Master lives. You can see it as soon as you walk over here. He usually doesn't go out..."

Guan Ziming was indeed a good apprentice. He dutifully took out a map and carefully outlined the route up the mountain and the place where his master lived.

"Alright, from now on you'll manage this business for me, and I'll keep the rest to myself."

"Yes, Mr. Ling!"

Ling Yun put the map into his spatial storage. Guan Ziming pretended not to see it at all, nodded, and went out to attend to his business.

The black Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped at the foot of Tianjiu Mountain. Ling Yun told Ya Xuan and the other two women to wait for him downstairs, while he went up the mountain alone.

The mountain road is steep, and the scenery at the top is not very good, so Tianjiu Mountain has not been officially developed into a tourist attraction. Only casual hikers come here to play.

Lingyun walked very fast, striding across some steep mountain paths that were difficult to climb, and soon arrived in front of Master Guan Ziming's house.

Unexpectedly, there was a courtyard halfway up the mountain. Although it was not big, the environment was quite nice, and there were medicinal herbs planted nearby, making it look rather pleasant.

Just as he was about to knock, the door was pushed open from the inside.

An elderly man with white hair and beard came out. His eyes were bright and he was very energetic. You would never guess that he was two hundred years old.

"Last night I saw a purple star streak across the east, and today you, my young friend, have come to visit me. I am truly honored! Hahaha! Come, my young friend, please come in!"

Ling Yun greeted the old man and followed him into the courtyard.

After the old man closed the door, he invited Lingyun to sit down and poured him a cup of tea.

After drinking it, Ling Yun felt refreshed and exclaimed, "As expected of the old immortal, even his tea is not for ordinary people."

The old man opposite him wasn't as strong as he'd imagined, but he was still at the S-rank! According to the ancient martial arts rating system, that meant he had already surpassed the Innate Realm and truly stepped onto the path of "Immortal"!

"Gods? There are no gods in this world, it's just a way to fool the masses!"

The old man laughed and poured himself a cup of tea: "My real name is Lin Feng, courtesy name Zhouzhi. Just call me Old Lin. I'm trying to integrate into society, but unfortunately, I'm still a bit old-fashioned."

After finishing his tea, Lin Feng glanced at Ling Yun with those unusually bright eyes, then asked solemnly, "Young friend, what is your surname?"
