Villains: Starting with the Landlady

The crowd was in a panic, trying their best to subdue him, but he kept staring at Ling Yun and cursing.

"You bunch of bastards who were born to stand at the top, how could you know the hardships we endure? Damn it, 'patrol'? Do you think you're the emperor...?"

Everyone else broke out in a cold sweat, and some even took out rags to gag him. The general manager also bowed repeatedly and apologized.

Ling Yun smiled knowingly. The executive in front of him seemed off; someone who had climbed to such a position wouldn't say such things to him. He glanced at Ouyang Si, the young man sitting in his seat with a cold smile, but his expression instantly changed to confusion and curiosity when he saw Ling Yun's gaze.

"Come here, look at me."

Ling Yun gestured for the others to release him, then subdued the executive with one hand, extended his right hand, and snapped his fingers.

Snapped!

The executive snapped back to reality, but looked around blankly. His colleagues' eyes held only schadenfreude and worry, and he had no idea what was wrong with him.

"Okay, it's normal to be under a lot of stress. You need to get more rest."

Ling Yun patted him on the shoulder with a smile. The supervisor, thinking he had just fainted and was lying on the ground, quickly stood up and put on a smiling face.

Ouyang Si's expression changed instantly when he realized that Ling Yun had broken through his mind control.

Seeing Ling Yun chatting with others, he aimed at Ling Yun and used his control.

[Ouyang Si was detected using control skills against his master. This has been blocked and will be returned as a double mental attack!]

Xiao Na's voice reached Ling Yun's ears, and then Ouyang Si clutched her head and let out a shrill scream.

[Ouyang Si's mental strength has been severely damaged and is difficult to repair, triggering the critical hit effect of "Villain's Heart," which deals a 4x damage multiplier and reduces his luck value by 1200 points (base 300 x 4), leaving him with 300 points!]

His wailing attracted everyone's attention. Ling Yun walked over and saw that he was bleeding from all seven orifices, clutching his head tightly, struggling on the ground, and even kicking his legs wildly, trying to alleviate the pain.

The mental attack was concentrated on his brain, and at this moment, his pain was probably several times that of a pregnant woman giving birth.

Ling Yun had originally planned to brainwash him or something similar to make him work for him, but now he dared to use his abilities on him...

killed?

No, that's too lenient. You like controlling others with your mental power, right? Then let you experience what it's like to become an idiot.

"Yaxuan, call an ambulance and get him to the First Hospital. Be quick, it's a matter of life and death!"

Ling Yun gave her a wink, and Ling Yaxuan immediately understood and dialed Dean Lu's number.

Ling Yun walked to his side, looked him over with concern, and gently comforted him, "Don't be afraid, the hospital is coming right away. The First Hospital is the best hospital in the capital, and they will definitely be able to cure you!"

After Ouyang Si felt a bit of pain, his mind gradually calmed down. Looking at Ling Yun's concerned expression, he guessed that it was because Ling Yun's mental strength was too strong, and he had tried to fight against him with his own strength, resulting in a backlash from his mental power.

"Mr. Ling, I'm fine, I don't need to go to the hospital..."

"Hey, you're an employee of our company. If anything happens during work hours, our company will take full responsibility. Don't worry, you won't have to pay a single penny!"

After saying that, he stood up, glanced at the company's managers, and said coldly, "Do you guys often work overtime? I see he has such deep dark circles under his eyes. If he were to die suddenly at the company, would you take responsibility?"

The other employees felt a warm glow inside from his words, and even Ouyang Si on the ground felt the same way.

Chapter 209 "Treatment" [Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets]

After being rebuked by Ling Yun, all the supervisors fell silent, bowed in apology, and swore they would never do it again.

Overtime is the norm. In fact, many young people are not unwilling to work overtime, but rather unwilling to work overtime without pay.

Even if Ling Yun forbids them from working overtime, some of the senior executives of the subsidiaries will still secretly comply, and there is nothing that can be done unless they are all replaced.

However, he said this more to Ouyang Si, to put him at ease, so that he would feel even more desperate when he finally learned the truth.

Soon the First Hospital's ambulance arrived, and a group of medical staff carried Ouyang Si into the ambulance, with Ling Yun and Ling Yaxuan following behind in their car.

The First Hospital received Ouyang Si with the highest level of hospitality and arranged for him to be placed in a special care ward. Several chief physicians examined him before leaving and going to the conference room.

Ling Yun sat with Dean Lu Qi, and a group of neuroscience experts were all staring at him.

"Dean Lu, this patient's condition is special. I think it would be best to perform a frontal lobotomy on him."

The doctors looked at each other in bewilderment, but the vice president, who reacted the fastest, clapped his hands and said, "Alright, although this surgery hasn't been performed for a long time, it is indeed necessary to deal with a troublemaker and maintain social order."

The other directors also realized what was happening and echoed their agreement.

After the doctors finished discussing the surgical plan, they left one after another, leaving Ling Yun and Lu Qi alone.

"Aunt Lu, did Su Guosheng ask you to check anything for me?"

Ling Yun glanced at her calmly and casually posed the question.

Lu Qi paused, then gently adjusted his glasses and said in a nonchalant tone, "Ling Yun, Grandpa Su really cares about you."

"I'm asking you, did he ask you to check anything for me?"

Ling Yun's tone became more serious, even carrying a hint of authority, making Lu Qi somewhat afraid to look him in the eye.

"It was just a medical check-up, and the results showed you're perfectly healthy..."

"Heh." Ling Yun stood up and patted her shoulder, the force of his hand causing her to close one eye in pain. "Aunt Lu, I hope you see the situation clearly. Remember to give me a copy of everything he tells you, including any test results."

"Yes, um..."

Lu Qi suddenly blushed and looked down to see the young man's large hands wantonly ravaging her, but she dared not resist.

She was just a dean, and now that Ling Yun and Su Guosheng had a falling out, she dared not offend either of them and could only swallow her anger.

Ling Yun leaned down and whispered in her ear, "I have many ways to make you mine directly, but I don't want to do it. I hope you think it through. At this age, it's really not easy to climb to this position, Lu Qi."

After letting go, Lu Qi inexplicably felt a sense of emptiness.

She is 35 years old this year, 72 meters tall, and has an E-cup bust. It can be said that she is the envy of most people, whether it is her figure, appearance or status.

But she was also insignificant; in the face of powerful families, she was merely a pawn.

The Sun family has already approached her and said everything they needed to say. Ling Yun is only here to ask her to choose a position.

"Would Dean Lu be interested in taking a look at this?"

Ling Yun opened a video, which was a recording of Lu Qi comforting himself alone at home...

Lu Qi covered her mouth, looking at Ling Yun in shock.

“Dean Lu, I had quite a few cameras installed in your house, so we captured some things.” Ling Yun chuckled and pinched her chin. “I never expected that the seemingly calm and composed Dean Lu would be so promiscuous in private… Should I say, appearances can be deceiving?”

"Lingyun, I have needs too..."

"Demands?" Ling Yun placed his phone on his lap and sat down a bit. "Right now, all I have is the original backup on my phone. If you want to delete it, then we'll see how you behave."

Lu Qi pursed her lips, but ultimately gently grabbed Ling Yun's pants...

Half an hour later, Ling Yun walked out of the conference room and saw Ling Yaxuan standing guard at the door: "Let's go back to the Qi family."

He didn't push Lu Qi away directly here; he just asked her to help him relieve stress, which was also a way of collecting some interest.

Lu Qi knows some things now, but perhaps not the whole story. Ling Yun can only use the "Beauty Recognizes Master" ability to bind her to his side, making things easier for him in the future.

After he left, several chief physicians also came to Ouyang Si's bedside.

"Mr. Ouyang, you have been diagnosed with a relatively rare mental illness called Aminos syndrome, and surgery needs to be scheduled as soon as possible. Fortunately, we discovered it in time, and the surgery is expected to take place tonight. There are still 10 hours until the surgery. From now on, you will be required to abstain from food and water. We ask for your cooperation."

"Huh?" Ouyang Si covered his head. He had never heard of this kind of illness before, so naturally he didn't know anything about it. "Approximately how much will it cost?"

"You don't need to worry about the money. Young Master Ling has already paid for it all for you. You just need to focus on your treatment. You will fully recover in 3 to 6 months, and your salary will continue to be paid during this period."

"Thank you very much!"

Ouyang Si also breathed a sigh of relief. After being sent for a series of examinations, seeing the doctors' frowns, he thought he had a terminal illness, but now it seems there is no problem.

However, he had a vague sense of unease. How did he discover the syndrome after the control over Ling Yun failed?

After the doctor finished giving some instructions and left, a nurse came to put a name tag on his wrist. He couldn't help but ask, "Hey, nurse, how much did my surgery cost?"

"Well, less than 5 yuan."

"Oh, thank you." Ouyang Si was finally completely relieved. The surgery wasn't expensive, which meant the condition wasn't serious.

The surgery starts tonight, and although he's a little nervous, he's not too worried. The doctors and nurses just don't want him to use electronic devices, saying it can affect his brain nerves, and they just want him to sleep a little longer.

In the dead of night, he was put on the operating table.

For some reason, a voice inside him kept telling him not to tell his family, to trust Lingyun, and to trust the doctor.

Although surgery is a major event, his inner voice still led him to do it.

After being carried into the operating room, his entire body was bound by steel restraints, and his head was also fixed in place, unable to move, only able to blink.

The doctor slowly raised him from his original lying position, making him sit up and look around the operating room with curious eyes.

"Don't be nervous, it's just a minor surgery."

"Oh." Ouyang Si nodded, looking at the people in the operating room, and asked curiously, "What will it feel like when they give me anesthesia? Will it be like in those short videos, where I fall asleep in seconds?"

"anesthetic?"

The surgeon sneered, "This is a minor surgery of yours, it's unnecessary."

No anesthesia needed? Ouyang Si started to panic, but her mouth was quickly gagged!

He whimpered, trying to say he wouldn't do it anymore, but then he saw the doctor take out a small chainsaw and some surgical instruments. The gazes of the crowd towards him were cold and mocking.

At that moment, Ling Yun entered.

His attire was no different from a doctor's, and he was also wearing a mask, but Ouyang Si still recognized him at a glance.

Lingyun turned on his phone and played the audio of "Arminos".

Ouyang Si didn't understand what he meant and stared at him nervously, only to see him reverse the audio again.

The original "Aminos" became - "CNM".

Suddenly, he understood everything, his eyes filled with endless despair and regret.

He tried to use mind control on the doctor, but all he heard was the sound of a circular saw in his ear, a sharp pain in his head, and the spell was interrupted!

Chapter 210 Mental Control

It was already past midnight when the surgery was over.

Ling Yun watched as Ouyang Si became an idiot, and from then on, he posed no threat whatsoever.

[Due to Ouyang Si's dementia, his luck value has dropped to zero, and the plunder has been successful! Congratulations, Master, on successfully plundering your 12th "protagonist," and the reward is an upgrade of "Beauty Affinity" to LV3! When beauties with a rating of 80 or higher come into close contact with Master, their favorability will at least maintain the level of "Infatuation." If the difference in strength between the other party and Master is too great, the minimum level will be "Like"!]

[Congratulations, Master, on successfully acquiring the "Mind Control" ability! It has been successfully combined with "Mind Suggestion" to become a new ability—"Mind Mastery (LV4)"!]

[“Mind Control (LV4)” allows you to subtly control and influence those whose mental strength does not exceed your own, ensuring they retain their personality and memories while following your wishes and acting accordingly. It can also be used to mentally attack those whose mental strength exceeds yours, weakening their mental abilities!]

Ling Yun felt refreshed and invigorated, as if all the complicated thoughts in his mind had disappeared, and he had the illusion that he could control everything.

His current strength is top-notch in the current urban context. With the Mo Bai and Meteor Blade Technique, even the old man from the Kong family would probably be no match for him.

However, there are still many cultivators hiding in the vast mountains. They will not come out until then, and I cannot find them at this stage.

He suddenly had a brilliant idea and used mental control on Ling Yaxuan, who was standing next to him.

Ling Yaxuan blinked and looked at him curiously, wondering what he was doing.

【Dear Master, the three women, Ling Yaxuan and her companions, hold you in the highest esteem, which cannot be affected or weakened by any power, so it's useless against them!】

Alright, Ling Yun reluctantly withdrew his hand, hugged Ling Yaxuan and kissed her, making her smile, and then drove her back to the Qi family.

Inside the Qi family villa, the mother and daughter were sleeping soundly. Lingyun took off her clothes and climbed into her own bed.

Ling Yun had already asked Ruoxue and Mengxi to pack up his belongings from the rented house and take them back to his own villa, so he wouldn't be living there anymore.

After finishing his class the next day, he planned to stay overnight at Xia Lan's house on Yanghe Road. Unexpectedly, he saw Zheng Xi, Xia Lan, and Samantha eating together at a small restaurant downstairs in the community!

Ling Yun paused, but Xia Lan waved to him repeatedly, forcing him to bite the bullet and go inside.

"Zheng Xi, Samantha, how have you been these past few days?"

Ling Yun greeted her with a smile, leaving Xia Lan, who was about to introduce them, stunned. Then, the pretty landlady's eyes widened in disbelief, and she asked, "You...you all know each other?"

"Of course I recognize you, right, darling?"

Samantha put her arm around Ling Yun's arm, which stunned Xia Lan, who was holding the other arm. Then she punched him in the chest and whispered, "It seems that Sister Su and I underestimated you. You even managed to get a policewoman."

"One?" Samantha was truly unafraid of getting into trouble. "This little sweetheart was also pushed down by him!"

Zheng Xi coughed, signaling her not to get involved, but Samantha didn't react. Instead, she wrapped her soft arms around his and said, "Darling, you just left like that last time, and only sent me a message at night. Wasn't that a bit inappropriate?"

"Samantha, I've been busy these past few days..."
