An Biyu: Master...
Wasn't the reason we kept Leng Ruobing around all this time just for this?
Otherwise, Chen Beiyuan would have been able to behead Leng Ruobing when he first transmigrated.
Daring to team up with Lin Xiao, the chosen one of destiny, to scheme against him?
Do you really think he can't lift a knife anymore?!
The reason why the matter was put to rest at the Empire Club, leaving a glimmer of hope for the Leng family father and daughter, was simply because they still had some value to be used.
Chen Beiyuan still wore a warm smile on his face, but his eyes were cold and indifferent, devoid of any warmth, as if they were a block of ice that had stood for millennia.
At this moment, Chen Beiyuan finally shed his previous pretense and revealed another side of himself to outsiders for the first time.
Although he didn't say a word, his expression clearly showed his attitude.
An Biyu's flushed face suddenly turned pale, and the anger in her eyes vanished instantly.
That indifferent and merciless gaze almost made her feel as if she were in an abyss, being slowly swallowed up by it...
She never dreamed that she would see that kind of look in the eyes of an eighteen-year-old boy.
It was a kind of indifference and ruthlessness towards heaven and earth and all things, like the way of heaven itself.
Heaven can be both compassionate and heartless.
At that moment, she knew very well that the man in front of her was not joking.
If she doesn't agree, her daughter's and husband's heads will likely be placed before her in an instant...
"I see!"
An Biyu's cold and alluring face showed a momentary hesitation and struggle, but in the end she fell silent and lowered her proud head little by little.
Clearly, she has made her own decision.
And that's what Chen Beiyuan admires most about her.
Only children talk about right and wrong.
Adults, on the other hand, only talk about naked self-interest.
If this were any other woman, she would probably be putting on a show of unwavering resistance and stubborn defiance.
For An Biyu, bowing down and submitting seems to be her best option at the moment.
As long as I can avenge my family and protect the people I love most, then it's all worth it. At worst, I'll just be someone's dog.
"Madam, I admire you more and more."
Seeing the other party's submissive state, Chen Beiyuan's cold indifference vanished instantly, replaced by a hint of "warmth," and he suddenly spoke:
"But, madam, dogs don't behave like this in front of their owners!"
An Biyu's body trembled, then she closed her eyes, forcing her weak body to crawl slowly to the ground, kneel down, and hug Chen Beiyuan's leg, like an obedient dog enjoying the caress of its master.
"Owner..."
A cold, alluring voice rang out, carrying an unusual charm.
Seeing how quickly An Biyu got into character, Chen Beiyuan nodded in satisfaction.
Indeed, this is the biggest difference between a young girl and a young woman.
If it were Leng Ruobing, I'm afraid she would never be able to do what her mother did, even if she were beaten to death.
Ultimately, it comes down to not having experienced the harsh realities of society.
I wonder what Leng Ruobing would think if she saw her biological mother kneeling before Chen Beiyuan...
A playful smile appeared on Chen Beiyuan's lips.
Normally, a man would feel aroused upon seeing a beautiful woman kneeling before him.
However, Chen Beiyuan was not tempted by the beauty before him and remained calm.
Sometimes, power is more alluring than beauty.
When your power is immense, those women who once longed for you but could not attain it will all kneel before you...
Although Miao territory is located in the south and is mostly barren and rugged, its vast area is in no way inferior to the territory of the Chen family in Donghua at this moment.
Furthermore, it also hides a large number of undeveloped resources.
Once we can control the Miao Gu tribe and gradually expand our influence, we can bring the entire Miao region under our control...
Tsk tsk tsk, I'm afraid the Chen family of Donghua will eventually surpass everyone else in territory, including the imperial family...
"Tell me about the Gu Clan of Miao Territory. You must have had your own power to become the Holy Maiden of Miao Territory..."
In the original story, An Biyu was able to reclaim her position as the Holy Maiden, which could not possibly have been done single-handedly. That would be truly extraordinary, and she must have had support from within the Gu Clan.
These events are all trivial plot points that are only briefly mentioned in the original work.
But for Chen Beiyuan at this moment, it was extremely important.
"Master, however, that 'bitch' has controlled the Miao Gu Clan for nearly twenty years. She must have cultivated her own power. My power back then must have been suppressed and dispersed by her, making it difficult to borrow strength."
"However, Master, the most orthodox Gu Emperor bloodline flows within me. That damned 'bitch' is merely a collateral descendant. The Gu Clan places the utmost importance on bloodline inheritance. As long as I return, those elders who value bloodlines most will switch their allegiance to me, including the Gu Clan's most stubborn Grand Elder..."
"My ancestor swore a blood oath to [Emperor Gu] that unless her descendants betray the Gu clan, her bloodline must never be harmed. This means that 'that bitch' can't use this ultimate method against me..."
An Biyu lowered her head and calmly recounted her scheme.
But whenever she mentions that "bitch" who took everything from her, her voice always turns cold and chilling; clearly, she truly hates her to the core.
...
The Lin family.
The "Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chick," who had been suspended and whipped for two and a half hours, was finally taken down and brought to his room.
The Lin family sent a professional pharmacist to apply medicine to the two men whose skin was torn and bleeding.
"Brother Lin, this time, we owe you a great debt!"
Lin Jiuxiao, who had been beaten half to death, looked at Lin Xiao, who was covered in bruises and wrapped up like a mummy, and was filled with emotion.
Fortunately, Lin Xiao, the chosen one, withstood the greatest pressure from his elder brother; otherwise, he would have been truly doomed.
Just two and a half hours later, he "fainted" in less than half an hour.
Then, Lin Xiao endured the remaining two hours for him.
"My good brother is in my heart."
"From now on, we'll be brothers who share joys and sorrows. What I have, you'll have too."
"Now that you're a fifth-rank battle commander, I still have a few thousand-year-old spiritual herbs that I don't need right now, so I'll give them all to you..."
"My second sister gave me a treasure map a while ago. I couldn't understand it either, so I gave it to you too..."
"Please don't die! With you here, I'll feel much more at ease if I get into trouble in the future..."
Lin Jiuxiao hugged the "mummy" in front of him with a "grief" look on his face, as if he was afraid that Lin Xiao was really dead.
After his older brother gave him a beating, his relationship with Lin Xiao heated up significantly.
In crucial moments, having a reliable and reliable brother is truly invaluable!
At this moment, Lin Xiao, who was wrapped up like a "mummy," almost fainted when he heard Lin Jiuxiao's mournful expression.
However, upon hearing about the precious spiritual herbs and treasures mentioned by Lin Jiuxiao, this chosen one was overjoyed.
He'll probably have to pay a considerable price to get these things.
But Lin Jiuxiao gave it to him casually.
He didn't suffer that beating for nothing.
With these things, his cultivation speed is probably going to take off!
For a moment, Lin Xiao's resentment towards Lin Jiuxiao, this unreliable "idiot," lessened, and he felt more touched instead.
Just as their relationship was blossoming.
Not far from the door, Lin Jiuzhou stood with his hands behind his back, watching silently without saying a word.
"He's not completely stupid; he still knows how to win people's hearts. It wasn't for nothing that I went to all this trouble."

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!!!
