The Evil Prince - Rise of a Tycoon 89-97

Chapter 89 Expansion in the Surrounding Area
"Heh, next time you come, don't think you can leave so easily." I muttered to myself, looking in the direction where Hua Zimei and Ren Changfeng disappeared. After saying that, I shook my head and left, looking at the debris shattered by my fight with Ren Changfeng.
"Hey, Zhang Hu? Call a meeting." As I walked out of the hotel, I took out my phone at the entrance of the small park diagonally opposite the hotel, dialed Zhang Hu's number, and said calmly.
After making the call, I strolled alone towards the new headquarters of the Ice Mirror Society, an eighteen-story building. Of course, this building was bought for 70 million, but that was nothing to the Ice Mirror Society. The Ice Mirror Society had already begun to have this strength. Originally, the owner of the building did not intend to sell, but after Zhang Hu and his group talked to him, the building, which was originally worth 200 million, only cost 70 million to the Ice Mirror Society, and was renamed Northern Enterprise.
Now, our headquarters is no longer a small nightclub but has moved here, to the very heart of H City, in a prime commercial location. Most of our underlings have transformed into legitimate security personnel. There are at least six of our Ice Mirror Society's establishments around the building, with about 500 underlings ready to provide support at any time, ensuring the Ice Mirror Society headquarters is absolutely secure.
Our conference room is located on the seventeenth floor, where the offices of all the bosses are located. The eighteenth floor is my private space, where only I am allowed to enter. For this reason, we even changed the elevator route. The eighteenth floor has an electronic combination lock, and twenty underlings are always on duty guarding the entrance. This is the Ice Mirror Society's top secret location.
A black Mercedes pulled up on the asphalt road in front of me shortly after. A man in a long black suit stepped down and respectfully opened the door. We then headed towards the Northern Enterprises building in the central district. When we arrived, the building was already packed with people. The surrounding area was completely sealed off by men in matching black suits. The legitimate employees inside had already left work, and the area was eerily quiet. Although the streets were still busy, people wisely made way for the burly men wearing the Ice Mirror Society badges. At this moment, H City was under the control of the Ice Mirror Society. The smaller gangs were completely defenseless and were gradually eroded by the Ice Mirror Society. Therefore, the Ice Mirror Society was now the underground king of H City. As night fell, the city's rule shifted from the government to the Ice Mirror Society.
"Young Master Xie!" Upon seeing me, a group of men immediately bowed and respectfully greeted me. Their voices were neat and powerful, a resounding shout from over a hundred men.
Ignoring them, I simply nodded and got out of the car. Led by two henchmen, I entered the building and headed straight for the seventeenth floor. The two henchmen at the elevator door pressed the button for me, and we arrived on the seventeenth floor. There were more than a dozen people standing in the corridor on the seventeenth floor, their guns already drawn, tightly guarding the area. Upon seeing me, they saluted respectfully and then opened the door to the central conference room for me. The room was already full of people. Besides Zhang Hu and his main gang leaders, there were also the heads of various districts in H City. These people would become the backbone of the Ice Mirror Society in the future.
"Young Master Xie." When I entered, they seemed to be talking about something. As soon as they saw me, they immediately stood up respectfully and greeted me.
"Hmm, please sit down." I walked to the center, sat on the large leather chair, and said calmly to the people in front of me. One of the henchmen quickly brought me a cup of hot tea, then left and closed the door.
"What were you talking about just now?" I asked with a smile after taking a sip of tea.
"Young Master Xie, we were discussing the development of the Ice Mirror Society. I think that now that the Ice Mirror Society has absorbed the gangs in H City, we should temporarily suppress our operations to prevent ourselves from becoming the public enemy of the underworld in H Province. At the same time, we should also shrink our ranks and refine our resources. Only then can we achieve greater development. Moreover, we should accumulate enough money before taking action, because war is about money. Although our Ice Mirror Society has a high income, I think we should have a period of stability and spend money to cultivate relationships with officials in nearby cities. This will be more beneficial to us. Tiger and the others think we should strike while the iron is hot and continue to develop. That's why we were just discussing this matter." After I said this, Wu Wei, as my chief strategist, spoke first.
"Okay, I understand. Originally, my idea was the same as Wu Wei's. Developing too fast might not be a good thing for our Ice Mirror Society. The bigger the tree, the more the wind blows." I said calmly with a frown. When I spoke, Wu Wei didn't show any other reaction. He was calm and composed, as if he had known this all along. However, the three people, led by Zhang Hu, Zhou Tiejun, and Chen Bing, unconsciously looked a little unnatural.
Of course, there are also some who don't care and just watch me, namely Li Cheng and Zhou Tiexiong. It seems that my subordinates are starting to divide into factions. Li Cheng and Zhou Tiexiong are neutral, one faction is led by Wu Wei and Wu Jinniu, and the other faction is led by Zhang Hu, Chen Bing, and Zhou Tiejun. However, it is obvious that Zhou Tiejun's faction has a lot of power. If I have the opportunity, I need to balance them out. After all, as a qualified leader, an unbalanced power structure under my command is not a good thing for me. But overall, it's still good. At least they are still loyal to me. After all, I have my hands on their every move because I have planted many people around them. It's not that I don't trust them, but it's something that a leader must do. If you trust someone too much and don't take any precautions, then your death is not far away.
"However... it seems we don't have that time anymore, because recently quite a few forces have been eyeing us. It looks like our Ice Mirror Society is going to be in trouble. So, I need you to resolve this as quickly as possible. Our Ice Mirror Society may be facing an extremely powerful enemy. Therefore, at this time, I require you to eliminate all the surrounding enemies as quickly as possible. Putting everything else aside, we, the Ice Mirror Society, will begin to gradually expand into the surrounding 17 counties." I changed the subject and said calmly.
My words received considerable agreement. Zhou Tiejun and his group showed a hint of joy, while Zhou Tiexiong and Li Cheng were eager for battle. Wu Wei, however, frowned and said to me after a moment, "Young Master Xie, this will cause our Ice Mirror Society to suffer heavy casualties. The surrounding seventeen counties have a large population, many of them are outlaws, and the security there is poor. Many people are armed, which will cause us a lot of casualties. Our Ice Mirror Society's foundation is unstable, and its personnel are too diverse..." "
Yes, I know what you're saying, but there's no other choice now. Notify everyone in the Ice Mirror Society to divide into eighteen groups. Select the most elite to guard the headquarters, and the rest should gradually disperse. Don't be afraid of getting hurt, don't be afraid of dying. If someone dies fighting for the organization, the organization will take care of their family's livelihood and provide one million in compensation. If they are seriously injured or disabled, they will receive 500,000 at once, and the organization will take care of their livelihood afterward." I said calmly.
“But Young Master Xie, this will affect the finances of our Ice Mirror Society…” Wu Wei said worriedly. Currently, I've entrusted Li Cheng with the financial reins. After all, Li Cheng is arguably the person I trust most. He was raised by the Li family and instilled with a cult-like ideology of loyalty to the Li family from a young age, making him undoubtedly the most reliable. As for others, I'm not entirely at ease with them yet. However, Li Cheng isn't a jack-of-all-trades; at least, he doesn't have that much talent in finance. So, once the Ice Mirror Society has more personnel, I'll let someone else manage it.
“Yes, I know this will be a huge blow to the Ice Mirror Society's finances, but there's no other way. Don't worry about the finances. Our venues and businesses are doing very well right now; we should be able to support ourselves. Besides, once we have territory, are we afraid of not having money? So, don't worry, just do as I say.” I waved my hand, interrupting Wu Wei, and said calmly, my tone carrying an undeniable air of authority. In the end, Wu Wei just looked at me and said nothing more, because the clever Wu Wei probably already understood my meaning. Since I had made my decision, I wouldn't allow anyone else to object.
"Alright, I'm tired and don't want to say anymore. You guys handle it yourselves. I'm handing over the task here to Tie Xiong; you all cooperate with him. As for Wu Wei, you're in charge of bribing the officials. Don't be afraid to spend money; give them money and women as they want. Once you've got them under control, everything will be fine. Of course, remember to find some leverage against them. I don't want the Ice Mirror Society to become the government's chamber pot. When you assign tasks to each of them, make sure you have something on them. If they dare to do anything to harm our Ice Mirror Society, make sure they're finished immediately." I leaned back in my chair and said calmly, my tone unconsciously turning cold towards the end.
For years, the government has treated gangsters like chamber pots, using them when they're useful and discarding them when they're not, just like Du Yuesheng back then—how glorious he was, yet he was still kicked aside. Only the Zhu family has remained standing all these years. Why? The reason is actually quite simple: the Zhu family has been operating for too long, occupies too much territory, and has too many diverse personnel. However, these are not the main issues. The most important thing is that the Zhu family controls too many people, and there are too many people connected to them—too many to count. The state simply doesn't dare to touch the Zhu family because if anyone were to make a move against them, that person would be immediately eliminated. Even the Liu family, the dominant force in Chinese politics, is in the same boat. They don't dare to touch the Zhu family because they themselves don't even know how many members of the Zhu family are within their own factions, or how many others are connected to the Zhu family.
Of course, the Zhu family also doesn't dare to touch the Liu family, because that would undoubtedly be a lose-lose situation, with neither side gaining any benefit. After all, if the Liu family is pushed too far, eliminating the Zhu family wouldn't be a problem. Of course, if such a massive family were to retain even a little over ten percent of its strength, it would be a miracle.
"Yes, Young Master Xie." The group of people said respectfully, and then they all left to carry out the tasks I had assigned them, leaving me alone in the huge conference room. Looking at the empty surroundings, I was filled with many emotions. Looking at the twinkling stars in the sky, the gradually gathering dark clouds, and the booming lightning, a faint smile appeared on my lips. I muttered to myself, "Hehe, let the storm rage on."
The next day, news spread like thunder in H City: a large number of members of the Ice Mirror Society were heading to the outskirts of H City. Many people had already predicted the purpose of the Ice Mirror Society's operation. Some were already worried that the H City underworld, which had just stabilized, would be plunged into another bloodbath because of this incident. Most people began to feel uneasy. The November weather felt exceptionally cold.
Heavy snow fell from the sky, blanketing the earth in white. While northerners were used to such cold weather, this year it felt exceptionally harsh for the people of H City.
Large numbers of members of the Ice Mirror Society began their march towards nearby counties. For them, conquering these areas was their sole objective. Of course, they wouldn't engage in a bloody street battle. In China, a country that had been stable for centuries, most gangs had already formed, and even in remote counties, they had their own rulers. Therefore, the Ice Mirror Society's purpose was clear: conquer the enemy, conquer all enemies. They couldn't tolerate others snoring beside their bed. These small county gangs were undoubtedly absolute enemies to the Ice Mirror Society, which had already unified H City. Faced with the Ice Mirror Society, they had only two choices: death or surrender. There was no other way out.
As morning approached, a fleet of seven or eight cars, all large buses, started arriving from Z County near H City. At the head of the fleet was a green SUV. As they passed through Z County, they undoubtedly attracted the attention of many people. Looking at the crystal-like lotus-shaped vehicles, many were filled with confusion, wondering about the origins of these people. Although Z County was considered a large county in H City, its economy was not developed due to its remote location, and such a fleet was not very common.
With a creak, the convoy stopped near the Z County Hotel. Four or five people got out of the vehicles. One of them, about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, dressed in a green outfit with a black sweater underneath, followed by three others in matching black wool coats. They were still a bit cold in the snow. One of them stepped forward and respectfully said to the burly man leading the group, "Brother Tie Xiong, do you think we should go and wipe out those bastards from the Giant Wood Gang right now?"
"Idiot, is it an idiot? It's broad daylight!" the young man at the front coldly cursed at his subordinates, then said indifferently, "Get the brothers out of here. Book this hotel. We'll start tonight. Tell the brothers to keep an eye on their weapons, don't get killed. Young Master Xie has high hopes for us. Although this is supposed to be training, you were all directly trained by me, Zhou Tie Xiong. If there are any casualties when dealing with those punks, I'll really have no face to face Young Master Xie, understand?"
"Yes, don't worry, Brother Tiexiong, the brothers will definitely not let you down. We've already investigated. The Giant Wood Gang is the local tyrant of Z County. Z County has 1.3 million people, but most of them live in rural areas. 420,000 people live in the county seat. The Giant Wood Gang is controlled by the boss of this place. They have about 200 members and make a living by collecting protection money and running brothels. Their gang leader, Gu Mu, started out by illegally logging trees. His men are all skilled forest raiders and have some weapons, but they're not very powerful. I estimate they have about 30 handguns. We brought 200 men this time, and everyone brought their weapons. Taking them down won't be a problem." The subordinate next to Zhou Tiexiong reported in detail to Zhou Tiexiong, not missing a single detail. However, he was clearly full of confidence when he got to the end, showing that he had a lot of confidence in himself and Zhou Tiexiong's group.
"Alright, that's good. But better safe than sorry. Leave ten brothers to guard the entrance, and the rest of you get some rest and prepare for a big operation tonight. The Giant Wood Gang has been around here for so long, they can't possibly not know we're here with so many of us. So be careful, lest we be caught off guard and lose face." Zhou Tiexiong said calmly to his men. After speaking, he stepped into the not-so-luxurious room of the inn through the not-so-deep snow. His men followed him, getting off the car in an orderly fashion and heading towards the inn. There was an interesting phenomenon: everyone here had bulging waists and carried a black satchel, which looked quite conspicuous.
"But Brother Tiexiong, didn't Young Master Xie say to subdue them first, accept those who are willing to surrender, and kill those who are not? Won't Young Master Xie blame us for doing this? Don't you think we should talk to them first?" Zhou Tiexiong's subordinate obviously didn't react at first, but after he came to his senses, he ran over panting, with puffs of white smoke in the air, and said nervously to Zhou Tiexiong.
"Talk? How can we talk? Do you think the Giant Wood Gang will surrender? I've seen Giant Wood's file. The old man is over fifty, but he's incredibly stubborn. Want him to surrender? Hmph... difficult. Since it's impossible, what's the point of talking to him? Besides, Young Master Xie said he only accepts those who genuinely surrender. I don't think many of the gangs in those county towns are genuinely surrendering, so let's kill them first. We can talk after we wipe them out. Don't worry about what Young Master Xie might do if he blames you. I'll take the blame. Just do as I say." Zhou Tiexiong said calmly, a hint of disdain in his voice when he mentioned the Giant Wood Gang. After speaking, he walked straight inside, ignoring his men.

Chapter 90 Encirclement and Reinforcements
"Boss, one of my underlings reported today that the Ice Mirror Society is here and staying at the county hotel. What should we do?" Around noon, in a small villa, a middle-aged man in his thirties with triangular eyes, wearing a black sweater, respectfully addressed a man in his fifties, a portly man with a fleshy forehead, who was eating hotpot at the table.
"What? The Ice Mirror Society? Why are they here?" The bald man, who had been casually eating, dropped his chopsticks upon hearing this, the food falling onto the table. He took a deep breath, put down his chopsticks, and sat there pondering for a while before sighing, "I knew they would come, but I didn't expect them to come so quickly. Sigh... They don't seem friendly."
"How many of them are there?" the bald man sighed and asked his subordinate beside him in a low voice.
"There are probably two or three hundred people. The messenger said they came in seven large buses, all of them full. Looks like quite a few people," the triangular-eyed man said respectfully to his boss, though a hint of disappointment lingered in his eyes. His boss was getting old; he wouldn't have been this terrified before. Though outwardly calm, his trembling legs betrayed his inner turmoil. "Back then, even when the Eagle Gang came out in full force, our boss, along with all the surrounding counties, still managed to drive them back," the triangular-eyed man sighed. "Now, just hearing the name of the Ice Mirror Society has terrified him like this... It's really...
" "It seems a comfortable life has long since eroded his courage," the triangular-eyed man thought to himself.
"Boss, what do you think we should do? Should we do what we always do, contact the county leaders to deal with the Ice Mirror Society? I think the Ice Mirror Society's intentions are hostile this time. We'll have to use the old methods we used against the Eagle Gang," the triangular-eyed middle-aged man said respectfully to his boss.
Actually, the old method was devised by the seventeen counties surrounding H City to counter the powerful Eagle Gang, the dominant force in H City. Their principle was to fight independently in peacetime, but if the Eagle Gang attacked them, they would quickly unite to resist the Eagle Gang, drawing on all available resources to strike the Eagle Gang and force them to stop. This is why the Eagle Gang was able to dominate H City for more than a decade but was still forced to remain confined within the city.
"Well, that's the only way. Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. I want to see just how powerful the Ice Mirror Society really is. Go and notify Chief Li of the police station to help us out. Also, call the bosses in the other counties and ask them to send reinforcements. We must beat these bastards back. Oh, and bring out the weapons from the warehouse. Don't be afraid this time, use them freely. The Ice Mirror Society isn't the Eagle Gang. I know these bastards won't use knives against us; they'll come at us with real guns from the start. So there's no need to hold back. Since they want to fight, we'll fight them to the end. At worst, we'll die." After hearing his subordinate's words, Gu Mu, the bald leader of the Giant Wood Gang, slammed his hand on the table and said resolutely, leaving his subordinate stunned.
After a moment of stunned silence, Gu Mu excused himself and left. Watching his men go, Gu Mu let out a long sigh and said to his most trusted henchmen standing beside him, "Pack your things. Inform the young master we're leaving tonight."
"Boss...you..." one of the henchmen stammered, surprised.
"Enough with the nonsense! I told you to go, so go! Stop arguing, you hear me?" Gu Mu's face twisted into a menacing grin, causing his men to tremble involuntarily. They nodded and ran out, leaving Gu Mu standing there alone. Looking at the pile of things on the table, he sat down, poured himself a full glass of baijiu, and downed it in one gulp.
"Brother Tiexiong, Chief Li from the county police station just called us. He said the second-in-command of the Giant Wood Gang called him, wanting his help to deal with us tonight. Chief Li also got some information out of that guy that they plan to use the same methods they used on the Eagle Gang against us, and they're currently contacting the bosses in various counties." Twenty minutes later, one of Zhou Tiexiong's underlings respectfully approached him and said with a smile.
"Hehe, looks like that million wasn't wasted, and Deputy Director Ma's call wasn't in vain either. Hmm, not bad. Call Chief Li for me and thank him. There's going to be a good show tonight. Tell all the bosses and tell Young Master Xie that you're going to request a change to the plan..." A rare smile appeared on Zhou Tiexiong's face, a peculiar smile, as if he had already won.
"Young Master Xie, Tiexiong just sent word that he wants to change the plan." At this moment, Wu Wei, standing in his office on the 18th floor of the Northern Enterprise building, respectfully said to me, who was sitting there admiring the view of H City.
"Oh? How to modify it?" I didn't move, still half-reclined in my recliner, admiring the bustling street below through the floor-to-ceiling window of the eighteenth floor. Although it was snowing heavily, the streets below were still bustling with people, busy with their lives. I admired it all as if it were a group of humble ants. After a while, I said to Wu Wei behind me in a low voice,
"Well, it's like this. Zhou Tiexiong said that he received news that the Giant Wood Gang plans to use the same methods they used against the Eagle Gang against us. So he thinks this is a good opportunity to wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop. As long as we can use this opportunity to get the troops from various counties to withdraw and give them the strength to support the Giant Wood Gang, we can launch a counter-encirclement and wipe them out in one fell swoop." Wu Wei said respectfully to me, but from his tone, he was very supportive of the plan, because I could hear a hint of joy in his voice.
"Hehe, besiege the enemy's stronghold and ambush reinforcements? Hmm, not a bad idea, but is the information reliable?" I chuckled softly upon hearing this. Zhou Tiexiong's idea was indeed good and worth a try. If successful, it would save our Bingjian Society a lot of trouble.
"Reliable. This information came from Director Li of the Z County Police Bureau. Last night, I sent someone to deliver one million to him and secretly filmed it. Moreover, as you suggested, Deputy Director Ma and Mayor Huang have already called him, implying that he should look after the Bingjian Society. He's not stupid; he wouldn't make things difficult for us for a small Jumu Gang. That wouldn't benefit him at all." Wu Wei said confidently. I agreed with this. People aren't fools; they will naturally choose to cooperate with someone who is advantageous to them. Compared to the Jumu Gang, I think that little director would naturally know which one to choose. Besides, we have so many leaders putting in a good word for us.
"Well, in that case, have Tie Jun and the others withdraw completely. Let the brothers rest a bit, hehe. Then, quietly go to Z County, but don't enter the city. I believe that if Tie Xiong and the others don't leave, people from the surrounding seventeen counties will arrive in Z County by tonight. Hehe, then we can wipe them all out in one fell swoop." I said calmly.
"Yes, Young Master Xie, I will convey your instructions completely. Don't worry." Wu Wei said respectfully to me, and then quietly took his leave.
For the next half day, strange things kept happening in H City. For some unknown reason, the people from the Ice Mirror Society in H City all withdrew after entering the county, except for the people from Z County. This made all the bosses very suspicious of the Ice Mirror Society's purpose in doing so. However, when they called their friends in the city to inquire, they received news that there was a small problem within the Ice Mirror Society, and all the people they sent out had been withdrawn. Of course, this news was just a rumor and it was unknown whether it could be confirmed, but one thing was certain: the vehicles sent by the Ice Mirror Society to other places had all been withdrawn, and tens of thousands of H City residents could testify to this.
Then came news that the Ice Mirror Society had dispatched another 500 people, traveling in 30 large buses, heading towards Z County. At this point, almost all the leaders concluded that "the Ice Mirror Society has abandoned its foolish plan to fight everyone at once, and is instead preparing to concentrate its forces on one target and defeat them one by one."
Thus, according to the established agreement, after receiving the distress call from the Giant Wood Gang in Z County, almost all the leaders of the seventeen counties, except for a few counties near H City which only sent people, personally led their most elite troops and weapons to Z County, ready to give the Ice Mirror Society a head-on blow, to let them know the power of the seventeen-county alliance in H City, and to make them understand that H City is not solely dominated by the Ice Mirror Society, and that they can only cower within H City and not even think about stepping out.
"Damn it, this weather is so damn cold. I don't know what Young Master Xie was thinking, making us wait in this godforsaken place. It's freezing! I don't know what Tie Xiong was thinking, coming up with this crazy idea. Well, it's not bad, but it's just too cold. By the way, why didn't Young Master Xie let us take over their stronghold when those bastards came to support Z County? Instead, he made us sneak over here and take over Z County?"
The heavy snow fell from the sky, showing no sign of stopping, turning the entire ground into a pristine white. Meanwhile, in a forest on the outskirts of Z County, H City, a middle-aged man in his forties with a rugged face and a crew cut, wearing a black woolen overcoat, was standing there, stomping his feet and cursing at a man in his thirties beside him. This man was muscular, wearing a military overcoat, and exuded a military air. There were three or five other people with him, clearly the leaders of the nearly two thousand people in the surrounding woods.
"Heh, you guys, you've been following Young Master Xie for so long and you still don't know? He's striking at the enemy's vital forces. Heh heh, if we wipe out their forces, won't the territory be ours sooner or later? If we can't take them down, hmph, even if we occupy the territory, we might have to give it back. That's why Young Master Xie made us wait here. Once those bastards go in, we'll give them a dumpling-like surprise and make them all die." The middle-aged man with a military bearing sneered. This man was none other than Zhou Tiejun, and beside him were Wu Jinniu, Li Cheng, and Zhang Hu, who had just spoken.
"Hehe. I knew Young Master Xie's brain was much sharper than ours, even sharper than my cousin Wu Wei's. Now it seems Young Master Xie is really smart. Damn, if I, Old Niu, were in this situation, I would definitely be the first to grab territory, not think of these things. No wonder Young Master Xie made all our cars go back and then sent people to bring us here in that beat-up transport truck. So that's what it was for. Hehe, but those hired laborers on that truck are much more comfortable than us." Wu Jinniu chuckled after hearing Zhou Tiejun's words.
The reason they were here was entirely because I switched their vehicles. While confirming the plan, I dispatched a fleet of trucks from a transport company, acquired by the Ice Mirror Society but without any Ice Mirror Society markings, to various counties. They already had business in these areas, so their arrival didn't arouse suspicion. Then, under various pretexts, I recruited a group of laborers. Once the vehicles arrived, these laborers changed into pre-prepared clothes and rode in our Ice Mirror Society vehicles back to H City. Meanwhile, my Ice Mirror Society members rode in those enclosed trucks to the outskirts of Z County. The operation was very secretive, and with the heavy snowfall, it went almost undetected. Our 1200-plus Ice Mirror Society brothers arrived here silently, preparing for battle in the woods on the outskirts of Z County.
While my brothers waited in the icy wilderness, forces from over a dozen counties surrounding H City arrived in Z County before nightfall, gathering at the Giant Wood Gang's headquarters, the Giant Wood Forestry Company, and settling in. Their personnel had also arrived at the Giant Wood Gang's headquarters.
"Haha, welcome, welcome, bosses! I, Gu Mu, am deeply grateful!" Upon hearing that the people from various counties had arrived, Gu Mu, the leader of the Giant Wood Gang, abandoned his plans to flee and greeted the county leaders with a beaming smile.
"You're too kind, Elder Gu," the crowd replied with laughter. Gu Mu warmly invited them inside, settled them in, and prepared a banquet. Of course, hot pot was the perfect meal for this weather, and a nearby hot pot restaurant had been booked. The county leaders and Gu Mu sat down together.
"Hehe, bosses, I'm so happy today! To be honest, I thought I was doomed, but you all came to help. I'm truly grateful. Those bastards from the Ice Mirror Society are probably crying now, haha. Come, come, let me drink this first, thank you all!" Gu Mu's fleshy face beamed with a smile as he spoke to the county leaders, then picked up his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.
"Haha, don't worry, Elder Gu. Today we'll make sure those guys from the Ice Mirror Society know how powerful our Seventeen Counties Alliance is, and send them packing. Elder Gu, my friends in the city have already called. There are two hundred Ice Mirror Society members here, and another five hundred are expected to arrive later. Those bastards are trying to wipe out your Giant Wood Gang, aren't they? We'll take them down one by one." The leader of County E cursed, his tone revealing his disdain for the Ice Mirror Society.
"Hehe, I know. To be honest, those bastards could really wipe out my Giant Wood Gang with just these guys. But it's a pity they didn't expect our Seventeen Counties Alliance to be so united. They're definitely going to suffer this time." Gu Mu said with a smile, looking every bit the hero.
"Yes, thirteen of the leaders from our seventeen counties have come this time, and the remaining five leaders have also sent their deputy leaders. We have over 3400 people in total. All the forces from our seventeen counties have come, along with several thousand 'mills.' Hmph, even if the entire Ice Mirror Society came, we wouldn't be afraid, let alone these few hundred. Hehe, as long as we wipe them out, that's a third of the Ice Mirror Society's strength. At that point, they won't be able to move an inch." The leader of County C said with a smile to the people around him.
"Hahaha, Boss Wang is right! Come on, cheers! After we've eaten and drunk our fill, those bastards should be here. That's when we should take care of them, haha, let them know how powerful we are!" Gu Mu said with a laugh, then stood up and raised his glass to drink with everyone.
However, unbeknownst to them, in a dark corner beneath the restaurant they were in, a man in a black coat was watching their every move. After seeing them all enter, he made a phone call and said to the other end, "Brother Tie Xiong, we can move in. They're all here. We can start."
"Tell the brothers to get their weapons ready," Zhou Tie Xiong coldly told his men after hanging up.
"Brother Hu, we can move in! Brother Tie Xiong called and told us to move in," one of the men in the woods respectfully told Zhang Hu beside him. As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Hu jumped up excitedly and shouted to his men, "Brothers, get ready! Don't embarrass me later! Anyone who's scared and backs down, I'll wipe out their whole family!"
"Young Master Xie, brothers, let's begin!" Meanwhile, in the Northern Enterprise building in H City, Wu Wei also respectfully addressed me.
"Is that so? It's finally starting. Heh, I hope there won't be too much bloodshed tonight." Sitting in my chair, I looked out at the beautiful snow scene and said calmly, then closed my eyes.

Chapter 091 Bloodstained Snowflakes
In the quiet night, the winter snow drifted freely in the sky, like goose feathers, gently falling and covering the peaceful county town. At this time, not many people were out and about in the county town. In such cold weather, many people tried to minimize going out. Only a few people walked quickly across the streets, their hurried pace suggesting they were rushing home.
In stark contrast, at the Giant Wood Company, it was a scene of bustling activity, brightly lit. Groups of people stood in twos and threes, gathered in clusters, wiping their weapons, preparing for the upcoming battle. They knew that tonight they would face a powerful enemy and could not be careless; their leader had already given them this instruction.
Meanwhile, a hot pot restaurant near the Giant Wood Company was bustling with activity, with many people drinking and singing. The entrance was crowded with people in overcoats, pacing around and observing their surroundings.
Outside the town, a large group of men in black woolen overcoats rushed in, attracting many furtive glances. Such things were uncommon in this quiet little county town, but those who saw them remained in their homes, paying no attention and simply treating it as a novelty.
“Brother Tie Xiong, it’s just ahead. All the leaders from the seventeen counties are there. We’ve already scouted it out; there are at least a hundred guards, and they’re all armed. The Giant Wood Company next door has several thousand people from the seventeen counties; it’s already full. Some of our brothers scouted it out; they’re all armed. And the Giant Wood Company is very close to this hot pot restaurant, only about a hundred meters away. They can provide support here at any time. I think they already know we’re here, and they’ll probably make their move on us soon.” In a small alley opposite the hot pot restaurant, a henchman respectfully spoke to Zhou Tie Xiong. However, judging from his pale face and shivering body, he must have been quite cold earlier.
“Hmm, well done. Go back and rest. Leave this to us.” Zhou Tie Xiong looked at the henchman in front of him, a slight smile appearing on his stern face, and said to him calmly, with a hint of appreciation in his tone.
“Brother Tie Xiong, I’m fine. I’ll work with everyone.” The henchman said with a hint of eagerness.
"No, go back and rest. That's an order," Zhou Tiexiong said calmly, his tone filled with undeniable authority.
Seeing this, the underling could only nod helplessly and leave. Zhou Tiexiong then turned to one of his men and asked, "Has Tiger and the others arrived?"
"Yes, they've arrived and are starting to come in. They're probably not far from here now," the underling replied.
"Notify them that the Giant Wood Company's lumber mill is theirs. They'll make their move in ten minutes, using our gunfire as a signal."
"Yes, sir!"
Ten minutes later, the north wind howled, snowflakes danced in the air, and the underlings of the Seventeen Counties Gang Alliance waiting at the restaurant entrance shivered from the cold. They no longer looked around, hugging their arms and stamping their feet on the ground, some huddling together to chat and keep warm.
With a loud "bang," a gunshot rang out, and a group of hundreds of people rushed out from a small alley diagonally opposite their restaurant. They had all taken off their coats, wearing only thin sweaters for easier movement. Although their fingers were red from the cold, it didn't affect their fighting ability in the slightest. After the first shot, a henchman from the Seventeen Counties Gang Alliance at the front fell.
Almost simultaneously, the dozens of guards on guard became alert, grabbing their weapons to fight the newcomers. Unfortunately, the cold weather hampered their movements, and before they could even get going, they were riddled with bullets from the group of hundreds.
"Damn it, what happened? What's going on? Go check it out!" The group of bosses who were drinking together in the restaurant panicked upon hearing the piercing gunshot. They stood up tensely, their slight drunkenness gone, and drew their weapons. Gu Mu stood up and roared at his henchmen.
"Boss, something bad has happened! Someone's attacked us! They've taken care of the dozen or so guys outside. Now the brothers are blocking the door and fighting them. They outnumber us, we probably won't last long!" A henchman rushed upstairs, panicking, and told Gu Mu.
"Who is it?" Gu Mu asked immediately. Actually, he already knew who it was, but he just asked casually.
"The Ice Mirror Society!" the henchman answered without hesitation, wondering if his boss had gone mad. At this point, the only ones who would attack them were the Ice Mirror Society. Why was he asking?
"Damn it, those bastards from the Ice Mirror Society only have a little over two hundred people, and they dare to attack us? They're tired of living! Weren't they saying their men would take at least three hours to arrive? How come they're here so fast? Tell the brothers to hold them off, and get the guys from the lumber mill to come and reinforce us. Wipe out those bastards!" Although he already had a guess about who was behind it, Gu Mu still couldn't quite believe it when he heard the news. He roared angrily at his men.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Gunshots rang out continuously outside. Zhou Tiexiong's two hundred or so men, each armed with an AK-47, unleashed a barrage of fire on the restaurant where the gang leaders from the seventeen counties were gathered. It was like popping beans; the sound of shattering glass echoed from the side. The entire restaurant was riddled with bullets. If Gu Mu and his men hadn't been on the second floor, it would probably be a sieve by now. Return fire came intermittently from inside the restaurant. Although Gu Mu's firepower wasn't particularly strong, his forty or fifty henchmen, relying on the walls, were able to hold out, occasionally even returning fire.
The gunfire reverberated throughout Z County. Many people quickly closed their windows, while others peeked out to see what was happening, only to be terrified by the intense gunfire and retreat. Meanwhile, the people at the lumber mill, a hundred meters away, who had been cleaning their weapons, were startled by the gunfire, then immediately grabbed their gear and rushed out. However, when they emerged, they found the entrance already crowded with people.
The gate, over twenty meters wide, was packed with people, all dressed in uniform black woolen overcoats. Some were crouching, others standing. As soon as they emerged, a dense hail of gunfire descended, instantly driving back the Seventeen Counties Alliance's men who had rushed out of the building, leaving only dozens of corpses on the ground.
The enemy bullets seemed endless, raining down for two or three minutes, turning every possible hiding place into a sieve. Countless bullets flew past, felling men to the ground. The lumberyard, already small, was quite crowded with several thousand people, and now, most were undoubtedly sitting ducks, hundreds killed instantly.
Only when the enemy's fire subsided slightly did they dare peek out. However, the enemy didn't seem intent on killing or defeating them entirely; it was more like a suppression tactic. As soon as they peeked out to return fire, they were met with another volley of bullets, forcing them to hide behind walls, occasionally raising their hands to fire back a couple of shots. Whether they could inflict any damage was anyone's guess.
"Brother Tie Xiong, those bastards are fighting really hard. Seven or eight of our brothers are already wounded, and one has died. Look..." Zhou Tie Xiong, hearing the gunfire from the lumber mill, smiled slightly, knowing his plan had succeeded. At this moment, a henchman approached Zhou Tie Xiong and said somewhat angrily.
A cold glint flashed in Zhou Tie Xiong's eyes upon hearing this, and he immediately asked his henchman, "Did you bring grenades?"
"Yes, but Young Master Xie was afraid things would get too big, so he only let us bring a few this time," the henchman replied respectfully. "
A few are enough," Zhou Tie Xiong said calmly. He then took a grenade from the henchman, and under the cover of a hail of bullets, lay prone on the snow. Using the darkness, he slowly crawled over, reached the doorway, rolled to the side, bit off the pin, and threw it inside.
"Bang!" A loud explosion blew three or five people out, and smoke rose from inside. Seeing this scene, Zhou Tiexiong smiled slightly, bit off the pin again, and threw the remaining grenades inside one by one. "Bang! Bang! Bang!" Loud explosions echoed throughout the restaurant, objects were blown to pieces, and screams of agony filled the air. After throwing away all the grenades, Zhou Tiexiong grabbed his submachine gun and was the first to charge in, firing wildly. His henchmen followed suit, grabbing their weapons and rushing in, unleashing a hail of bullets.
"Don't leave a single one alive," Zhou Tiexiong said calmly. This was a plan we had already devised. None of these bosses from the seventeen counties could be spared. Leaving them alive would only be a scourge to our Ice Mirror Society, offering us no benefit whatsoever. Therefore, I issued a kill order to Zhou Tiexiong at the start of the operation.
"Yes," the henchmen replied respectfully, then rushed in and opened fire, killing anyone in sight. Those leaders who, seeing the tide had turned and were preparing to surrender, tried to retaliate, but it was too late. They were met with the cold muzzle of a gun; a single bullet ended the lives of these once-powerful leaders. Not a single one of the seventeen county leaders survived.
"Is it all done?" Zhou Tiexiong asked his henchmen calmly, looking at the corpses and flowing blood.
"All done. We've checked; not a single one is missing," one of the henchmen replied respectfully.
"Alright, let's go." Zhou Tiexiong said emotionlessly, then led the team away towards the lumber mill. At this time, fierce fighting had broken out at the lumber mill. Suppressive firepower couldn't last long. A hefty reward would surely attract brave men. After offering a million-dollar reward for the first person to break through, the desperados finally acted, risking their lives to rush out.
Those blocking the entrance undeniably possessed powerful firepower, but they also had a fatal flaw: they were too obvious targets. The desperados rushed out almost simultaneously. After a brief exchange of fire, although they killed dozens of the enemy, they gave the enemy the opportunity to escape, and more than a dozen of their own died.
A fierce gunfight erupted the moment the blockade was broken. Thousands on both sides were armed with firearms, and the ensuing battle was predictable. The gunfire in Z County was like popping beans, a deafening roar that could be heard throughout the entire city. What was supposed to be a gang shootout turned into a full-blown war. In just two minutes, at least two hundred people had died on both sides, mostly members of the disorganized Seventeen Counties Alliance. Their eagerness to rescue their leader, coupled with poor teamwork and inferior weaponry, put them at a disadvantage, resulting in heavy casualties.
"Damn it, we're too late!" Seeing this, Zhou Tiexiong, who never swore, couldn't help but curse. The situation had veered off course from his plan. In his mind, this shouldn't have happened. Unfortunately, he had forgotten that his men weren't soldiers; they lacked the necessary discipline. And the opposing gang of thugs were not as weak as he had imagined. Thus, the Ice Mirror Society paid the price with dozens of deaths.
"Have our men withdraw and stop fighting," Zhou Tiexiong said to Zhou Tiejun, Zhang Hu, and the others. After exchanging glances, they ordered their men to withdraw, then blocked the exit, ceasing firefights. The people inside, who
were fiercely fighting, were frustrated by the sudden ceasefire. Just then, Zhou Tiexiong walked to the door and shouted, "Listen up, all of you! Your leaders are all dead. There's no point in continuing. We, the Ice Mirror Society, are giving you two choices: surrender or die. The choice is yours!"
Zhou Tiexiong's words caused a stir. Almost everyone was confused. Some dropped their weapons and came out, while others hesitated. Meanwhile, Zhang Hu and his men rushed in with their weapons, facing the enemy directly, but without firing, only pointing their guns at them.
The group quickly split into three factions. Under the cold muzzles of guns, most laid down their weapons, raised their hands, and stood aside, saying to Zhou Tiexiong and his men, "We surrender, don't kill us..."
A group in the middle was filled with confusion. They lowered their guns but didn't drop them, just looking at each other blankly. Clearly, they didn't know what to do; their leader's death had dealt them a heavy blow.
"Damn it, brothers, let's avenge our boss! Kill these bastards!" Another group, at least a hundred strong, but clearly ruthless, still hadn't laid down their weapons, pointing them at Zhou Tiexiong and his men. One of the bald men, seeing this, shouted, ready to pick up his weapon and kill.
With a loud bang, Zhou Tiexiong acted before the man could pull the trigger, striking him between the eyebrows. The man stared at Zhou Tiexiong with disbelief, then fell to the ground in despair. At the same moment Zhou Tiexiong fired, the hundred or so members of the Ice Mirror Society standing beside him also opened fire. In almost an instant, those who were about to resist were riddled with bullets before they could even fire, falling to the ground.
Looking at the cold corpses and bright red blood on the ground, Zhou Tiexiong coldly said, "I'll say it again: surrender or die."
This time, his words carried far more weight than before. Those who were still hesitating almost instantly dropped their weapons, shouting, "I surrender... I surrender!"
Seeing this, hundreds of men rushed out, confiscating all their weapons and then taking the men into custody.
In this battle, the Ice Mirror Society truly demonstrated their terror. More than 3,200 members of the Seventeen Counties Alliance, including 13 leaders and five deputy leaders, were wiped out here. In one night, the Ice Mirror Society almost eliminated all forces around H City, wiping out their entire fighting force. In this battle, they captured more than 2,700 people, killed 470, and the Ice Mirror Society itself paid the price with 43 lives, and 17 people were seriously injured or crippled.
Z County, a relatively small county, was stained crimson with the blood of the dead on this night. Pure white snowflakes drifted down from the sky, melting almost instantly upon hitting the ground, turning into a blood-red stain—a truly eerie sight. The entire battlefield resembled a hellish scene, the snowflakes themselves a vibrant crimson. After a night of heavy snowfall, the earth was blanketed in silver, and everything from the previous night was concealed by the snow, as if nothing had happened. Many even thought it was all a dream. If it weren't for the news of the Ice Mirror Society's annihilation of the Giant Wood Gang the following day, many wouldn't have believed the reality, unable to comprehend the fierce battle that had taken place the previous night.
Or perhaps the blood-stained snowflakes instilled too much fear in them, making them instinctively want to forget everything, to believe that nothing had occurred, that everything was peaceful, natural, and serene.

Chapter 92 Young Master Zhu's Date
An unsettling night ended in brutal fighting. The Ice Mirror Society wiped out all its enemies, eliminating their main force. The remaining forces were insignificant. The Ice Mirror Society's forces swiftly conquered the seventeen counties surrounding H City, dispersing the prisoners and distributing them to different areas. A selection process was conducted, choosing a thousand elite members. The rest were disarmed and temporarily held captive until everything was settled.
Three days later, after three days of the Snow Night Battle, the Ice Mirror Society, led by Zhang Hu and Zhou Tiexiong, had taken control of the seventeen counties. They released the weakened members and incorporated the elite, increasing their strength to 4,000. They now controlled all areas surrounding H City, firmly holding onto a region with a population exceeding four million.
However, this also slowed the Ice Mirror Society's expansion; at least for this winter, they likely lacked the strength to continue their expansion. The territory we've taken over will take us a long time to digest, and the quality of our personnel, the stability of the gang, and various other developments will consume a lot of our time, leaving us with no energy or manpower to continue expanding.
After all, the Ice Mirror Society has only existed for a short time. Its rapid development is undoubtedly a fatal flaw. Therefore, what we need to do now is not to rush development, but to stabilize. As long as we train these four thousand people into elites and stabilize our territory, unifying H Province will be a matter of time. Of course, I adopted a cruel training method for this purpose. The Ice Mirror Society does not prohibit its own people from clashing with gangs in other cities. In fact, I even fanned the flames, having my subordinates stationed on the outskirts of H City constantly take turns engaging in small-scale skirmishes with others. Of course, all these battles seemed to be tacitly coordinated, controlling the scope and level, and basically keeping them at the level of cold weapons.
"Young Master Xie, someone wants to see you." I haven't been to school for three days. The affairs of the Ice Mirror Society have kept me extremely busy. Although I am a typical hands-off boss, there are some things that I still need to handle personally. After all, I am the eldest brother, and there are many things that they cannot decide. Just when I was busy and overwhelmed, the phone suddenly rang. A subordinate downstairs said respectfully to me.
"Hmm? Who is it?" I frowned slightly and said calmly. After all, there aren't many people in H City who dare to call me by name these days, and if it were just an ordinary person, the henchman downstairs would never call to ask me.
"I don't know. We already told him to make an appointment, but that guy is very arrogant. He said you'll regret it if you don't see him. He said we should tell you he's from the Qinghong Zhu family, and whether you see him or not is up to you." The henchman downstairs said respectfully to me, but I could vaguely sense a hint of anger when he mentioned that person. It seemed that the person who came was not just ordinary arrogant.
"Bring him in. Come straight to the 18th floor. I'll be waiting for him there." I said calmly after hearing this, then hung up the phone. Ten minutes later, the door to the 18th floor opened. The entire 18th floor was about a thousand square meters, with no rooms, just a large open space filled with countless things: my desk, bookshelves, computer, exercise equipment, even my large bed and bar, some furniture, and a small basketball court. It was luxuriously decorated, no less than a five-star hotel. If there were any rooms here, it would probably be the toilet in the left corner.
Of course, I also secretly built a huge bathtub on the 18th floor—no, or rather, a small swimming pool and a sauna. With floor-to-ceiling windows, everything looked so extravagant. Although it was a bit wasteful, Bingjian Society had money now, so I didn't need to be too demanding of myself. Besides, I never liked living a life of poverty anyway, so this was undoubtedly my favorite place. I stayed here when Qin Ziying wasn't home, enjoying everything here.
As the door opened, several henchmen stood respectfully at the entrance. A young man, dressed in a white Armani suit, exuding the air of a successful businessman, carrying a black briefcase, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and sporting a Swiss diamond watch on his wrist, walked in. He was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with a crew cut and a short stature of about 1.75 meters,
with a well-proportioned build, but with a hint of arrogance and disdain on his face. "Who are you? What is your status in the Qinghong Zhu family?" I asked the young man at the door with a smile, my tone casual, as if I didn't care about his status. I took a deep drag on my cigar and exhaled a puff of smoke.
"I am Young Master Zhu's private secretary. You can call me Sun Huacheng. You must be the so-called 'Evil Young Master' of the Ice Mirror Society? Our young master has something to discuss with you. He hopes you will be there on time tonight at the Pink Club in H City at 8 PM. Our young master doesn't like people being late, so we hope you can be punctual. Also, don't bring any idle people with you. Our young master doesn't like having unauthorized personnel when he's talking to people." The young man named Sun Huacheng walked in, glanced at me, and said calmly, with a hint of contempt in his tone, as if he were ordering me around.
"Heh, Young Master Zhu? Zhu Zihao? Heh heh, people say a prime minister's son is a seventh-rank official. I didn't believe it at first, but seeing him today, I know what arrogance really means. Heh heh, you've been following Zhu Zihao for quite a while now, haven't you? People say dogs are very much like their masters, it seems your master isn't much better. Hmph, a dog dares to bark at me like that, what do you think you are?" I said coldly after looking at the guy named Sun Huacheng. As soon as I finished speaking, the two henchmen at the door immediately understood, each pointing a pistol at Sun Huacheng's head.
"You... what do you mean? Do you know the consequences of offending us? Let me tell you, I'm a member of the Green Gang, Young Master Zhu's secretary. If you dare to hurt me even a little, Young Master Zhu will make sure you all die a horrible death." Sun Huacheng was clearly not a brave or fearless character. His face changed when he saw me, and he immediately said to me, his face pale. Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, it seemed he was truly afraid at this moment.
"What do you mean? I just want you to know that the Zhu family isn't the only powerful family in this world. At least I'm not afraid of Zhu Zihao. Don't think you're someone important. Remember, you're just a dog of the Zhu family." I stood up, walked to Sun Huacheng's side, and disdainfully slapped his face as I spoke.
Sun Huacheng's legs began to tremble, his face turned ashen, and his eyes kept glancing at the cold muzzle of the gun behind his head. However, he didn't dare to say a word, only staring at me in terror.
"Drag him away and cut off one of his ears to teach him a lesson." My expression changed, turning dark, and I ordered my two henchmen opposite me.
"No, no... Young Master Xie, I was wrong, please give me a chance, for Young Master Zhu's sake, please let me go. I'll never dare to do it again." Sun Huacheng shouted and begged me loudly as his men grabbed him and dragged him away.
Unfortunately, I had no pity for him. I simply waved my left hand, signaling my men to quickly drag him away and dispose of him. I then lay down on my comfortable sofa, turned on the TV, poured myself a glass of red wine, and downed it in one gulp.
Just then, a pitiful scream came from outside.
As night fell, I left the Northern Enterprise's gates without many people. I drove my newly bought Porsche directly to the Pink Club in the suburbs. I knew about the Pink Club; it was a private club with branches all over the country, but it was the only one of its kind in H City, absolutely top-notch. I didn't know who its owner was, but I initially estimated it belonged to either the Liu family or the Zhu family. Because to be able to hide it so well that even our Li family didn't know about it, there were probably no other families in China besides these two. It was said to have all kinds of facilities and was the most expensive place in H City, with countless beautiful women, from students to young women. Women, from young girls to mature women, from professional women to sexy celebrities, are all available; as long as you can afford it, they can find you. The facilities are luxurious, with all sorts of extravagant items. Of course, the prices here are extremely high, costing at least 100,000 yuan per night. The lowest membership fee is 2 million yuan, while silver membership costs 5 million yuan, and gold membership costs 20 million yuan. As for the highest diamond level, money alone isn't enough; a certain status is required. Without a certain status, don't even think about it. Diamond members undoubtedly enjoy the highest level of treatment.
Upon arriving, I found many cars parked outside, including Mercedes and BMWs everywhere, many with official license plates. It seems the Red Mansion has a truly significant influence; the people here are all wealthy and powerful, none of them ordinary.
After parking the car, I picked up my keys and went inside. The Red Mansion Club wasn't very large; it was built against the mountain and looked quite elegant. The surrounding parking lot was full of people, including bodyguards and security guards, indicating tight security.
"Sir, is this your first time here?" As I reached the entrance, a beautiful girl appeared before me. She was wearing a low-cut cheongsam, revealing her perfect curves. Seeing me, she smiled and asked softly.
"Yes, Zhu Zihao invited me. My name is Li Tianxie," I said with a smile.
"Oh, it's you. Please follow me. Young Master Zhu is waiting for you inside." The girl looked at me with surprise after hearing my words. Judging from my appearance, I looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, dressed in a casual silk shirt and black jeans. She probably didn't expect me to be the person Zhu Zihao was waiting for. Judging from her expression, I could guess that she knew Zhu Zihao, or at least... she knew that Zhu Zihao was very powerful.
Following her, I arrived at the door of a private room on the second floor. After she opened the door for me, she respectfully gestured for me to go in. Once inside, I saw that the surrounding facilities were indeed luxurious, comparable to my own place. At this moment, Zhu Zihao was lying in a huge marble pool, and two girls, about fifteen or sixteen years old, were sitting naked next to him. One was massaging him, and the other was peeling fruit for him. No, not two, but three. Just then, a long-haired girl emerged from underwater. She had been serving Zhu Zihao between his legs, so I hadn't seen her.
Beside Zhu Zihao, an elderly man in his sixties was meditating with his eyes closed, seemingly oblivious to everything around him, lost in his own world like a stone statue. Even when I entered, he didn't react at all, only opening his eyes briefly, a glint of light flashing in them before closing them again.
Zhu Zihao looked to be no more than twenty-four or twenty-five years old, his face somewhat pale, but handsome enough to be considered a first-rate heartthrob. However, his deep dark circles gave him an expression of excessive indulgence. When he saw me enter, he didn't seem to mind at all, lewdly playing with the not-so-full breasts of the girl who had emerged from the water, saying, "Xiao Hong, your skills are getting better and better, haha, tonight I'm going to have some fun with you."
He made no attempt to conceal my presence as an outsider.
Seeing this scene, I unconsciously frowned. I found a seat facing Zhu Zihao, crossed my legs, and looked at him calmly, saying, "You're Zhu Zihao, right? What do you want?"
Upon hearing my words, the lewd smile on Zhu Zihao's face vanished, replaced by a dark expression. He said to me with a slightly ferocious and arrogant tone, "I don't like being disturbed while I'm playing."
"Heh, you don't like being disturbed? I dislike idiotic sex performances even more. If you have nothing else, I'll be leaving." I said mockingly to Zhu Zihao with a smile, and then turned to leave.
"Wait... If you dare walk out this door, you should understand the consequences. Since you're here, you should know my identity. If you're a smart person, you'd better behave yourself. Otherwise, hmph, although your Ice Mirror Society is powerful, I guarantee I'll make you disappear tomorrow." Zhu Zihao said viciously, a shadow appearing on his face.
"Hahaha... When did the Zhu family become so fond of boasting? So what if I leave today? Don't forget this is Northeast China, H City, not your territory. Do you think you can make our Ice Mirror Society disappear? On the contrary, I can make you disappear from here, disappear without a trace." I glanced at Zhu Zihao disdainfully, then turned around and laughed mockingly at him.
"Hahahaha... Interesting, very interesting... It's been years since I've met anyone who dared to speak to me like this. This is truly fascinating... But do you think you have the ability? Or rather, do you think the Ice Mirror Society's meager resources can really stop the Zhu family? Do you think that with one order from me, those officials in H City will side with whom? Those police officers will side with whom? At that time, your Ice Mirror Society will probably only face the army's annihilation... But since you're so interesting, I'll let you off this time. Hand over those people in your society who have opposed me before, and then... obediently kowtow three times to me, and I'll pretend nothing happened." Zhu Zihao laughed somewhat morbidly.
"Is that so? Mobilize the army? Use the government? Heh, do you think you have the ability?" I said disdainfully. After speaking, I suddenly turned into a gust of wind and instantly arrived beside Zhu Zihao. Before the old man who had been resting with his eyes closed could react, I grabbed his neck and pulled him out of the bathroom. I looked at him disdainfully and said, "Heh, now do you think we'll kill each other first?"
Suddenly, a figure approached from behind, but I turned around with Zhu Zihao in my arms, tightening my grip. I coldly said to the old man who had been resting with his eyes closed, "If you don't want him to die, you'd better not move."
"You...you..." Zhu Zihao was struggling to breathe, his limbs began to struggle desperately, and he looked at me with disbelief in his eyes.
"Me? What do you mean, 'me'? Heh, are you scared now? It doesn't feel good to have your life in someone else's hands, haha. But don't worry, I won't kill you today. I'm just letting you experience what it's like to be played with. Heh, you arrogant fool, do you really think you can do anything to me? Do you really think your Zhu family is the only powerful family in China?" I sneered, looking at Zhu Zihao. Then, I grabbed Zhu Zihao's arm with my other hand and snapped it instantly with a light touch. After two crisp cracking sounds, Zhu Zihao's face turned deathly pale, and he let out a miserable scream.
I looked at him and then threw him to the ground. It wasn't that I didn't want to kill him, but now wasn't the time. Killing him would inevitably cause a fight between the Li family and the Zhu family, which would only allow the Liu family to sit back and watch the tigers fight. This would not benefit me at all. So, I just taught him a lesson and didn't kill him. As long as I didn't kill him, the Zhu family wouldn't become hostile to the Li family because of him.
Seeing that I had put Zhu Zihao down, the old man rushed out and launched a fierce attack on me. He used a pair of eagle claw hands, wielding them with unparalleled skill, capable of splitting gold and iron. He aimed directly at my vital points, attacking my face.

Chapter 093 Recruitment?
The old man moved with lightning speed, attacking me directly. I turned to meet him, and we began to fight each other. We were fast as lightning; onlookers only saw two shadows fighting in the room, unable to see our figures. Just then, we struck each other with a palm strike and retreated. Instantly, countless cracks appeared in the ground around us. A hole appeared where the old man had landed, the cement slabs were crushed, and seven or eight large holes were punched in the walls. It was as if something had swept through the area. The once luxurious room had become a garbage dump, and the surrounding glass turned to ash. Under the influence of the powerful airflow, Zhu Zihao and the naked women beside him were knocked aside, spitting out blood and looking at me with terrified eyes.
The old man and I landed separately. I smiled as I looked at his shoulder, which was now bruised and torn, his clothes ripped. Judging from the swelling, he probably couldn't move his left arm. The old man was also coldly staring at my chest. Following his gaze, I saw that my clothes were torn near my heart, and there were three scratch marks on my chest. It seemed that this was the old man's doing. If my body weren't now as strong as metal, he probably would have already ripped out my heart. It seems that there are countless hidden masters in China. This old man alone is definitely superior to me in terms of martial arts. He must be one of the two grandmasters from the Zhu family who have been famous for decades. He is indeed not someone I, a newcomer to the hall of grandmasters, can compare to. However, I have my advantages: my strong physique and my special ability that I have never shown to others. I will definitely be able to kill him.
The old man looked at his shoulder, sneered, and was about to attack me again. However, I stopped and pointed at Zhu Zihao on the ground, saying, "Heh, if you want him dead, then continue. You should understand that if we fought with our full strength, this club probably wouldn't survive."
"You..." The old man looked at Zhu Zihao, his face immediately changing. He looked at me with extreme embarrassment. This was the first time he spoke to me. His voice was very hoarse and had a cold feel to it. Of course, his martial arts were not like that; instead, they had a righteous air about them.
"Hehe, don't worry. If I wanted to kill him, I would have done it already. I don't want to kill him right now. Take him and get lost. H City isn't your territory. You'd better behave yourselves here, or I won't be polite. I hope you understand that the Zhu family isn't the only one in China, and... Zhu Zihao isn't necessarily the guaranteed heir in the Zhu family, so you'd better be more discreet." I smiled, then glanced at Zhu Zihao disdainfully before turning and leaving through the window.
Watching me disappear, the old man sighed, spitting out a mouthful of blood. He then grabbed his shoulder and yanked hard, a crisp cracking sound echoing. The old man, pale-faced, walked to Zhu Zihao, set his bones, and said, "Young Master, let's go. We can't stay here any longer. That person was too dangerous. This old man is no match for him." "
How could this be..." Zhu Zihao, enduring the pain of his set bones, asked in surprise after hearing the old man's words.
"There's nothing I can't do. It's all because I was too careless. If I hadn't wanted to kill him quickly, I wouldn't have let him hit me. I just didn't expect him to be not only an internal martial arts master, but also a peerless external martial arts master, reaching a level comparable to Vajra. My eagle claws, let alone anything else, could tear even the finest steel if I used my full strength, but I could only leave a few wounds on him. Given time, this person will definitely be able to roam the world freely." The old man said with some emotion after hearing this.
"Hehe, Shanbo, I find this world truly fascinating. So many powerful people; I can no longer wallow in depravity. Since that's the case, I'll play along with them. Judging from what he said earlier, his backer seems quite powerful... Li Tianxie... Li Tianxie... Hehe, if I'm not mistaken, he must be from the Li family... The Li family is indeed extraordinary; no wonder they've been able to contend with the Zhu family for so many years." A flicker of excitement flashed in Zhu Zihao's eyes as he lay on the ground. Wiping the blood from his mouth, a perfect smile appeared on his face, a stark contrast to his previous arrogant and dissolute demeanor.
"Young Master, you..." The old man, hearing Zhu Zihao's words, showed a hint of joy and immediately said happily.
"Shanbo, don't worry, I've come to terms with it. Since there are so many heroes in this world, why should I wallow in depravity? In that case, I'll play along with them, haha... It's time for the three great families to settle things in our generation." A smile, difficult to decipher, appeared on Zhu Zihao's lips.
"Young Master, everyone would be happy if they knew you were like this," the old man Zhu Zihao called Shanbo said happily.
"Heh, happy? Yes, happy, heh, what's the use of being happy? Will being happy get Wanru back? Hmph..." Zhu Zihao showed no joy at these words. Instead, he mentioned a woman's name, his expression darkening, a rare hint of sadness flashing in his eyes.
"Young Master...you...don't think about it anymore, she is, after all, yours..." the old man advised, his tone tinged with helplessness.
"Hmph, I know, but one day I will take her back. I swear, no one can stop me," Zhu Zihao said calmly, a ferocious look appearing on his face, a murderous aura emanating from him.
"Ah... Young Master, I watched you grow up. I don't want you to sink into despair like this, but I also don't want you to be blinded by hatred. You... whatever you do, I will support you. I just hope you can be happy." Shanbo said, looking at Zhu Zihao with complicated eyes. Besides loyalty, Shanbo had deep personal feelings for this second young master, because he was a member of Zhu Zihao's mother's family.
Zhu Zihao's mother's family was a fallen aristocratic family, leaving only her and Shanbo. His mother was practically raised by Shanbo, her loyal servant. Afterwards, Zhu Zihao's mother died prematurely, leaving only Zhu Zihao, whom Shanbo had watched grow up. Therefore, Shanbo's feelings for Zhu Zihao were unparalleled. Although Shanbo was now a member of the Zhu family and had even changed his name, there was no doubt that even the Zhu family's influence was less than Zhu Zihao's.
This was also why Zhu Zihao, the second young master born out of wedlock, hadn't been eliminated by the family. After all, he had a grandmaster-level expert hidden behind him, enough to deter those with ill intentions.
"Uncle Shan, don't worry, I understand what you mean. But I will make those who hurt me pay the price." Zhu Zihao held Uncle Shan, who had watched him and his mother grow up and was unwaveringly loyal to him, in high esteem. Even during his most reckless and decadent times, even when he was arguing fiercely with his father, Uncle Shan could always calm him down with a single word.
"Hmm, it's good that you know. That puts my mind at ease." Uncle Shan nodded in satisfaction, though a hint of worry lingered in his eyes.
At that moment, I gracefully descended from the window and walked to the doorway. I saw the Pink Club in chaos, with many people rushing upstairs. Looking at my tattered clothes—a black silk jacket and a black wool sweater with large tears at the chest and three scratches revealing faint traces of blood—I shook my head. Then I jumped into my convertible and drove away with the roar of the engine.
As I sped towards downtown H city, a large truck suddenly appeared in front of me, blocking the middle of the bridge leading to H city. Then another truck appeared behind me. I realized that this old bridge, about a hundred meters long, was now closed off. A man in his early thirties, with a sharp, capable-looking face, stepped out of one
of the trucks. He was wearing a black leather jacket, short hair, and had strong muscles, along with cool black sunglasses, giving him a cold and aloof air. "Li Tianxie?" the man said coldly after getting out of the truck.
"I am... Who are you? Don't you think blocking my way is very impolite?" I said with a smile.
"Dragon Group of China, Long Yi, is hereby ordered to arrest you. You are suspected of organizing gang crimes and using superhuman strength against ordinary people. A month ago, you killed at least a hundred people alone on Changsheng Street in H City and attacked members of Special Task Force Nine. Therefore, we are arresting you in the name of the Dragon Group. I hereby declare you under arrest." Long Yi said coldly to me.
"Heh, arrest me? What wrong have I done? I'd like to know who sent you? Wang Kaishan? Heh, or that Wu Tai? Heh heh, high-ranking officials from the central government? When did the Dragon Group become someone else's lackeys? Aren't you under the Chairman? Heh heh, you should know that what you're saying is a very serious dereliction of duty." I looked at Long Yi with a half-smile and said with a smile.
"The Dragon Group has the special right to execute anyone deemed a threat to the country. As long as we believe someone is a threat to national interests, then we have the right to kill them, including you. No one has the right to stop us from doing so." Long Yi said coldly.
"However..." Just as I was about to speak, he changed the subject and looked at me calmly.
"But what?" I asked with a smile.
"However, given your immense strength, based on Wu Tai's report last time, we've determined that you possess at least innate-level power. Therefore, if you're willing to atone for your past transgressions, we can approve your joining the Dragon Group as a reserve member. After passing the assessment, you'll enter the most powerful Dragon Group in China as a full member, and your past crimes will be wiped clean. Otherwise, I will inflict devastating damage on you." Dragon Yi said to me with a half-smile.
"Heh, you have that much power to let me into the Dragon Group?" I asked in surprise.
"Yes... If you're willing, I can, in my capacity as the leader of the Chinese Dragon Group, grant you special permission to join." A glint of shrewdness flashed in Dragon Yi's eyes as he spoke.
"Hehe, as far as I know, Long Yi is probably the strongest member of the Dragon Group. No wonder you dared to come and capture me alone. So you're the leader of the Chinese Dragon Group," I
said, somewhat puzzled. "Alright, enough nonsense. You should give me a choice," Long Yi said to me calmly.
"Hehe, it seems the Dragon Group is short-handed right now. Are you in such a hurry to get me to join?" I said with a smile.
"The Dragon Group isn't short of people, but as its leader, I have an obligation to recruit all the talented individuals to serve the country. That's beyond question. You should know that you possess at least innate-level strength, meaning you're a third-rank expert. We won't let someone like that go. I hope you'll seriously consider joining the Dragon Group and serving your country. That would be your best choice." Long Yi said to me calmly, but I could tell he was very serious. When he spoke of the country, a hint of fervor flashed in his eyes. It seemed that Long Yi was a truly loyal person to the country. Frankly speaking, I don't claim to be loyal to the country, nor do I dislike it. However, I have great respect for those who are truly loyal to the country, rather than to any particular individual. And Long Yi happens to be such a person.
"Well, you're right. But I'm not a very responsible person by nature, and I don't like being ordered around. I know that your Dragon Group are all elites and experts, and you've done a lot for the nation. But you're still someone else's subordinates. I think even though you're angry sometimes, you can't take action against those who do evil, right? Hehe, am I right?" I said with a smile.
Sure enough, I seemed to have hit a nerve with Long Yi. I saw a flicker of helplessness in his eyes, but it quickly faded. Long Yi said to me earnestly, "You're right. Some people do evil, but we can't do anything about it because if we were to take action against them, it would inevitably cause chaos in the country. So, for the sake of the greater good, we have to endure it. However... if you join the Dragon Group, then you are serving your country. Although it may be a bit helpless at times, I believe that as a Chinese person, this is what you should do."
"Heh, there's no point in talking when we don't see eye to eye. Our ideologies are different. Let's not waste any more words. If you can defeat me, then I'll join the Dragon Group. Otherwise, you can go back." Hearing this, I shook my head, jumped out of the car, grabbed my already tattered leather jacket and threw it away, revealing my bare upper body. My strong and well-proportioned muscles were on full display. Wearing black leather pants, I stood in the middle of the bridge, my long hair fluttering in the cold wind, looking incredibly handsome.
"Alright, since that's the case, let's have a good fight. I also want to see what kind of person Lin Tiannan keeps praising from Special Task Force Nine is. I hope you won't disappoint me, otherwise, given the crimes you've committed, I'll take care of you on the spot. I hope you won't disappoint me." Long Yi took off his glasses and threw them on the ground
, then gave me a rare smile. "Enough talk, come on." I said coldly, then flashed forward and started fighting with Long Yi. Long Yi suddenly dodged my attack, and my punch landed squarely on the truck behind him. After the punch, a fist-sized hole appeared in the truck's metal container. Long Yi appeared behind me at this moment and punched me in the back. However, I reacted quickly, turned around and retaliated, my punch meeting Long Yi's. Simultaneously retreating, Long Yi staggered back over ten meters, carving two long gashes in the ground. He then steadily retreated, step by step, his foot landing firmly on the bridge, crushing the concrete beneath his weight. It took him dozens of steps to regain his footing. I, on the other hand, was forced back onto the truck, dragging myself and the truck back four or five meters before finally regaining my balance. My arms felt numb. This was the first time I'd encountered someone whose sheer physical strength could rival mine, but I was certain he wouldn't fare any better.
"Advanced genetically enhanced human?" Long Yi said, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.
"Bullshit! I cultivate the most authentic external martial arts combined with body-strengthening techniques. Don't talk nonsense if you don't know what you're talking about. And you, aren't you that so-called advanced genetically enhanced human? You think I don't know that kind of thing only those bored American bastards have?" I swung my arm, cursing at Long Yi.
"External martial arts combined with body-training techniques? It seems you truly are a genius. I've never seen anyone as powerful as you. Yes, you're right. I used to be the sole member of a fallen martial arts family. Later, I joined a special national department, Group Nine. Through fierce battles, I entered the Dragon Group. In five years, I grew from a 15-year-old seventh-rank master to a fifth-rank expert. Every step was earned with my life. Then, 17 years ago, we attacked those Americans. Unfortunately, I was captured. After that, I was taken to a special research institute in the United States and became their test subject. Hehe, but what they didn't expect was that I killed them on the third day after their successful experiment. Then I escaped and returned to the Dragon Group, becoming the current Dragon One." Dragon One seemed to recall something and began to recount his story.

Chapter 94 The Perverted Dragon One
"Those Americans may be bastards, but they gave me strength and a physique that no one else could match. Apart from the two genetically enhanced individuals in their later superpowered units, no one has ever been able to physically contend with me. Until you appeared, haha, I almost thought you were one of those Americans. I never expected you to have cultivated body-strengthening techniques and external martial arts. Reaching this level is truly astonishing." Dragon One said to me with a chorus of amazement.
"Hehe, so you're quite powerful? Hehe, you've seen plenty of things that will surprise you. Enough with the nonsense, let's get to it." Hearing Dragon One's words, a fighting spirit ignited within me. I hadn't felt this way in a long time, at least not since I left the Heavenly Slaughter.
As I spoke, I shook my arm, which had been somewhat numb, then smiled again and charged forward. My movements were as fast as lightning, indistinguishable from the real thing. My punches were like a tiger descending a mountain, captivating and awe-inspiring. Dragon One smiled and met my attack head-on. We fought from the ground up to mid-air and back down. At our level, being innate masters meant we could fly, so this wasn't a problem for us.
Our fight was purely physical, without any fancy moves. In a battle between masters, there's no time for fancy techniques. At our level, it's all about the most basic, direct moves, relying on speed and power – those two absolutes.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" We exchanged hundreds of punches, each landing before we were pushed back. Unconsciously, a trickle of blood appeared at the corner of my mouth. I have to admit, Long Yi was indeed very powerful; his punches were no less powerful than mine, and they hurt a lot. However, Long Yi was in a worse state. At least I wasn't hit in the face, while he took a solid punch and was now bruised and swollen.
"Hey, I haven't been this excited in a long time, haha... You're amazing, even more powerful than most grandmasters. Even those old guys from the three great families would have a hard time killing you. Hehe, you truly deserve respect, and you have every right to be proud. How about it? Join our Dragon Group! I'll make you the deputy leader, a major general rank, much better than being a gangster. You know, in our Dragon Group, officials are ranked one level higher, and murder is legal. If you come, no one will dare mess with you." Long Yi wiped the blood from his mouth and laughed heartily as he spoke to me.
"Hey, you might as well go into sales. Why be the Dragon Group leader? You'd definitely become a tycoon. Alright, enough talk, let's get started." I chuckled, feeling a sense of camaraderie with Long Yi.
"In that case, be careful, I'm getting serious." Long Yi looked like he'd known this all along, then said seriously to me.
"Why so much nonsense? Hurry up." I said impatiently with a smile.
"Alright, here it comes." Long Yi roared and charged forward, incredibly fast—faster than a speeding sports car, covering hundreds of meters in an instant, and attacking me directly.
"Old tricks, useless." I smiled and threw a punch, but as my fist met Long Yi's, I realized something was wrong. "Oh no, afterimage!" That thought flashed through my mind, but it was too late. A small mistake was enough for Long Yi to seize the opportunity and strike. Instantly, Long Yi's fists came whistling from behind, landing dozens of punches on my back, then kicking me into my car. With
a "bang," my Porsche was flattened as I crashed into it, followed by an explosion that sent the bridge surface flying with debris, then a plume of black smoke.
"Don't play dead, I know you're alright," Long Yi said calmly to the surrounding air after seeing the scene.
"Hehe, you really know me well. I must say, your speed is incredible, exceeding the speed of sound in an instant. That's not your natural strength, is it? If I'm not mistaken, you're a wind-type ability user." I emerged from the billowing black smoke, looking at the bluish-red stains on my body, and smiled at Long Yi opposite me.
"That's right, I'm a wind-type ability user." Long Yi nodded in reply.
"Well then, in that case, I won't stand on ceremony." I glanced at Long Yi and smiled. This Long Yi truly deserves to be called the number one expert in the Dragon Group. At nearly forty years old, he already possesses the cultivation level of a Grandmaster, and he has even passed the gene warrior experiment, becoming a rare high-level gene warrior with an incredibly strong physique. What's even more terrifying is that he's also a high-level wind-type ability user. It's truly enviable; almost all the good things have fallen on him. Now, I've even had to use an ability that I haven't used in a long time.
"Then let's go, no need to be polite." Long Yi chuckled lightly at my words.
"Alright, since that's the case, then I won't stand on ceremony." I smiled slightly, and with a wave of my hand, blue flames ignited around me, enveloping me completely. The metal and stone around me began to melt, the lamps shattered from the intense heat, the iron railings began to melt, and the solid cement softened, slowly forming a swamp around me, and this area continued to expand.
"Blue Flame..." Long Yi exclaimed in surprise upon hearing my words, his eyes filled with disbelief, and even a hint of fear.
As we all know, the colors of flames are divided into red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple, each level representing a different color. The temperature of the flame continuously increases. Red flames are ordinary fire, no different from regular flames, with a temperature of around 400 degrees Celsius. Each level increases the temperature, sometimes even doubling it. Blue flames have a temperature of at least 3000 degrees Celsius, enough to melt steel. Legend has it that purple flames can reach the temperature of the sun's surface, enough to melt everything in the world. There is also another legend that in ancient times, there was an inextinguishable flame, the source of the sun, a white flame known as the inextinguishable flame. However, no one has ever been able to cultivate to that level. The most powerful fire-type ability user is said to be Suirenshi from ancient times, who was the possessor of purple flames.
Watching everything around us melt and vanish, Long Yi sighed and said to me, "No need to fight anymore. I'm no match for you. I'd probably melt my arm before I even got a chance to hit you. Sigh... You... I never expected this... The legendary Blue Flame... I'm no match for you. Aside from that guy from Northern Europe, I doubt anyone would want to fight you."
"Heh, if that's how it is, then forget it. But you have to compensate me for my car. That Porsche was brand new." I smiled upon hearing Long Yi's words, and then with a wave of my hand, the flames on my body instantly disappeared.
"Seriously, you little brat, here you go. This is a gift I was planning to give you after you join the team. It's a brand new Ferrari FXX, only 20 in the world, and it's been modified. It's absolutely sturdy, and the speed is top-notch. It's perfect for a cool kid like you. I helped an Arab oil tycoon save his life last month, and he gave it to me privately. I was originally planning to use it to win over the new members of our Dragon Group, but it seems like that's not going to happen now. The car is parked in the underground parking garage of the city government. Go get it yourself." Long Yi tossed a key to me with a smile, then revealed a helpless expression.
"Hehe, don't make that face. It's your own fault for not being able to beat me. But, you know, you're always indebted to someone who gives you a gift. Even though you wasted a lot of my time and damaged my car, this one you gave me is really nice, haha, it's worth more than a dozen of my old cars, and it's even been modified. Hmm, since you're so generous, if the Dragon Group ever needs my help in the future, just send someone to me. An eye for an eye, here you go." I laughed. Although Long Yi was nearly forty, he looked only in his thirties, and I really liked his personality and character, so I tossed him the ring I'd just put in my pocket.
Long Yi caught the ring, paused for a moment, looked at it, and then looked at me for a while before saying, "Thanks, I'll take good care of this."
"Hehe, let's go, you have to take me back." I flew through the air over the dilapidated bridge, dozens of meters long, and walked to Long Yi's side, saying to him.
"No problem, but I need to clean up this place first, just in case someone passes by and it causes trouble." Long Yi smiled, jumped down, and used his inner strength to strike the stone pillar in the center of the bridge. Instantly, the center of the bridge shook, the supporting pillar shattered into pieces, and the fragments scattered into the river. The hundred-meter-long bridge collapsed, and the truck sank.
"That's vandalism of public property, I'll sue you if you don't comply." I said to Long Yi with a half-smile, floating in mid-air.
"You can go, but I don't know if anyone will listen to you." Long Yi glanced at me and said with the same half-smile.
Then Long Yi and I flew to the other side of the bridge. There was a deep red Lamborghini parked there. Long Yi took out two pieces of clothing from the trunk, and after we put them on, he drove towards the city.
"Interested in grabbing a drink?" Long Yi asked me with a smile as he drove, completely different from when we first met. Is this the legendary cold exterior but warm interior? Wait a minute, that's not how someone who's cold on the outside but warm on the inside should be. Could he have some ulterior motive? My mind
raced with wild fantasies. "Drinking? Sure!" I answered without thinking, but then suddenly realized something and looked at Long Yi with suspicion, a fearful expression on my face. "Why are you asking me to drink for no reason? Are you some kind of 'Brokeback Mountain'? Trying to get me drunk and then... you know what?"
Long Yi's face darkened immediately upon hearing my words, and he said angrily, "You little brat, are you trying to drive me crazy? Go or don't, it's up to you."
"Hahaha, I'll go, of course I'll go, but it's your treat." I laughed loudly.
"No problem." Long Yi nodded.
"This car is nice, it must be expensive." Looking at Long Yi's Lamborghini, I patted the car door and asked him.
"Well, not too expensive, a little over a million US dollars. If you want one, I'll give it to you." Long Yi said casually.
"Um...can I ask a question?" I asked Long Yi with a well-behaved expression.
"Sure, go ahead."
"Is everyone in your Dragon Group this corrupt?"
Long Yi...
We soon arrived at a pink rose-themed bar in the city center. Long Yi parked the car at the entrance, and we both got out and went inside. The bar wasn't very big, but it was quite crowded, seemingly doing brisk business. It was already past 10 PM, but the place was packed. Many people were singing loudly, while others were drinking at the bar, including quite a few beautiful women.
Long Yi seemed very comfortable in the environment. He came in with a big smile and followed me to the bar. He said to the bartender, "Give me a whiskey. As for my friend, you can ask him yourself."
"Bloody Mary," I said casually before the bartender could even ask.
"Hey beautiful, where are you from? I've never seen you before. Would you like me to buy you a drink?" As soon as I sat down, I noticed Long Yi had turned to a girl who looked to be around twenty years old next to him, smiling broadly.
"Holy crap, how could this be?" I almost couldn't take it anymore. The Long Yi I knew just now was cold and upright, and even when he smiled, he still maintained a certain authority. But the Long Yi in front of me now was practically a pervert! Look at his flirting skills... Holy crap, it was practically professional! The huge contrast was almost unbearable.
"Hehe, really? I'm a college student from around here. I've never seen you before. Where are you from? Oh, uncle, what's your purpose in inviting me for drinks? I've heard that many uncles in society are bad, often bullying us girls." The girl looked at Long Yi with a lewd expression. She spoke politely, but if you said you were scared, why were you dressed so revealingly? Wearing a sweater in the dead of winter is fine, but why wear a low-cut one? Wearing it is one thing, but why take off your coat? Taking it off is one thing, but why are you going commando underneath? Even from this seat, I can see those full breasts. Damn, the nipples are barely visible, they're so obvious! What I can't stand the most is that you deliberately bent down and touched Long Yi's shoulder. I mean, it's... really... "Slut."
"Hehe, actually, there's no real purpose. I just think you're so beautiful. A girl as beautiful as you makes me want to chat with you. Of course, I recently bought a Lamborghini, and I'd like to take you for a spin, and then, find a place to chat, talk about life." Long Yi said with a smile, his hand already touching the girl's shoulder.
I kept cursing them for being adulterers. Damn, Long Yi is so blatant! Why don't you just say I'm rich and sleep with me? That would be even more direct... So blatant! God, strike this bastard down! Going for a spin in the dead of winter? More like crazy, and talking about life? " Oh my god, they're probably going to talk in bed. Long Yi is absolutely shameless, he's a completely different person from the one I knew before. I even suspect he was switched out halfway through.
" "Okay, let's go then, I've never ridden in such a high-class car before." The girl happily grabbed Long Yi's arm, her eyes practically sparkling with stars—coin-shaped, of course. She pulled Long Yi out, that heartless guy actually abandoned me and went out with that woman.
As they reached the door, Long Yi said to me, "Tianxie, you go back yourself. I'm going to have a chat with this beauty, I probably won't be back tonight. Don't wait for me, we'll see each other next time."
With that, he walked away. Only then did I realize what was happening. I angrily cursed the adulterous couple as they left, "You two scoundrels!"
"Sir, I'm sorry, you haven't paid your bill yet." After finishing my drink in one gulp, I stood up and was about to leave when a waiter stopped me and said respectfully.
"Pay the bill?" It was only then that I realized I was penniless. This shameless Long Yi had left without paying. I better not see him again, or I'll burn his little pee-pee with Blue Flame and teach him a lesson.
"Give me a phone, I need to call my men." Seeing the waiter's unfriendly gaze, I said helplessly. Damn, this is incredibly embarrassing. The young master of the Ice Mirror Society, unable to pay the bill? People will laugh themselves to death if they find out.
"Sir, if you don't have money, we'll call the police and have you arrested." Ignoring my request, the waiter said with disdain. I was furious. Don't make me angry, or I'll really kill you right here.
"What the hell are you yelling for? Give me the phone now, stop talking nonsense!" I said angrily. ...

Chapter 095 Kidnapping?
"No...no, stop, Tianxie, we can't do this..." A woman's breathy voice cried out in a room shimmering with pink light. The voice belonged to a woman in her early twenties, a stunningly beautiful woman. Her hair was slightly disheveled, and she wore a pink nightgown, which had slipped down to reveal her beautiful figure and prominent breasts. A handsome man was passionately kissing her in his arms.
"Why? I want you." The man, or rather, a boy, about fifteen or sixteen years old, was incredibly handsome, almost like Pan An. His bare upper body revealed well-defined muscles, though his face was somewhat youthful. He whispered in his voice, enough to captivate any woman, to the naked beauty before him, then gently kissed her ear.
Without a doubt, these two people were none other than Qi Mei and me. It's only been a month since Long Yi left. In that time, the Bingjian Society has been focused on consolidation and development. The entire gang's territory has been planned, and the Bingjian Society is gradually encroaching on the surrounding areas, albeit on a small scale. Although they've extended their reach to the suburbs of three surrounding cities, they haven't officially entered the market yet. However, thanks to my ruthless training plan, the Bingjian Society's membership has increased significantly.
In addition, some members were eliminated and others were recruited, stabilizing the Bingjian Society's numbers at around 4,000. As the architect of all this, I've chosen to be a carefree, hands-off manager, leaving Zhang Hu and the others in charge of everything. I've also reassigned Chen Bing to head the Punishment Hall, handing his position over to Li Cheng. Originally, I didn't intend to do this, but unfortunately, I was somewhat dissatisfied with Chen Bing's work, hence the reassignment. I must say, if Chen Bing weren't a veteran, I would have replaced him already.
With everything settled, I found myself with nothing to do. December in Northeast China is already quite cold, and in such weather, I had nothing else to do but go to school while spending time with the women around me. Qin Ziying goes without saying; naturally, we spend every day together, and our bond has deepened. As for Qi Ruobing, that little girl is usually very busy, but during holidays she's always glued to my side, even Qi Mei can't drag her away. To be honest, if it weren't for Qin Ziying's interference, I probably would have already turned Qi Ruobing from a girl into a woman by now. After all, in my opinion, fifteen is already quite old, even though I'm only sixteen. It's a pity I haven't had a chance to make a move; twice, Qin Ziying ruined things at crucial moments, which made me incredibly frustrated.
Of course, speaking of those two, I have to mention Qi Mei. You see, I basically have nothing to do at school. The teachers' teaching is really not very good; I feel like I could teach them myself. So, I don't go to school often, and naturally, I spend my time with Qi Mei. As for their company… well, who dares to say no to the Bingjian Society's services?
Therefore, our relationship can be said to have rapidly progressed. Of course, with the progression of our feelings, there was bound to be some physical friction. So, just now, we sparked a flame. As the saying goes, "Without physical friction, where does the spark of love come from?"
So, after so much friction, our sparks have undoubtedly ignited, erupting like a volcanic eruption, so intense that it's impossible to escape. And that's exactly what's happening now.
"No...no...Tianxie, please listen to me, okay? Bingbing is coming back soon, now's not the time, she'll find out...Let's wait until later, if there's a chance later, I'll definitely do whatever you want." Qi Mei said breathlessly to me. Her words made me, who was already a little lustful, realize that being caught in bed with someone by this little girl was no good. You see, I came here with ulterior motives. If she found out, my boyfriend suddenly became my father, wouldn't she fight me to the death?
"You said it, remember that." I have to say, I was like a child at that moment, saying to Qi Mei. After saying that, I couldn't help but touch Qi Mei's full, huge breasts a couple of times. Finally, after checking the time, I reluctantly stood up and straightened my clothes.
Just as I finished tidying up, the little girl returned. She opened the door and, seeing me there, excitedly rushed over, grabbing my arm and saying, "Brother, what brings you here? Hehe... Did you come to see me? I'm so happy!"
"Uh...yes..." I replied slightly awkwardly, but quickly put on a smile, though I felt a little uneasy. After all, while I might be a rogue, I wasn't shameless. I was a cultured, well-mannered, idealistic, and ambitious new-era rogue—how could I compare to ordinary scoundrels? If I was going to be a scoundrel, I wanted to be the best of the worst. So, I was still a little embarrassed, especially since I had just been intimate with Qi Mei in bed. Hearing the little girl's words made me feel awkward.
"What's wrong, brother? You don't seem very happy?" Although the little girl was naive, she was undeniably perceptive and immediately noticed my unease.
"No, how could that be? Hehe, I'm just so happy to see you. Come on, let your brother see if our little girl has gotten even prettier since I haven't seen her for two days?" After hearing the little girl's words, I immediately got into character and smiled at Qi Ruobing, gently stroking her smooth face.
"You're so mean, brother, you're teasing me again." The little girl blushed instantly. Although it wasn't the first time I'd touched her face, she seemed to have matured a lot recently, probably because of her good teacher, Qin Ziying. She'd learned quite a bit, so now she was a little shy and gave me a playful scolding.
"By the way, where's Mommy?" The little girl glanced at me shyly, then suddenly seemed to remember something and asked me with a lively, energetic air.
"Uh..."
Just as I was about to lie again, Qi Mei came out of the room. She had changed into a casual home outfit and appeared before us, saying to the little girl, "I'm here."
"Mommy, brother's here! Can we have him eat at our house today?" The little girl excitedly ran over, grabbed Qi Mei's hand, and shook it, clearly showing her considerable dependence on Qi Mei, her "fake mom.
" "Okay," Qi Mei said affectionately to Qi Ruobing, then rolled her eyes at me.
Afterwards, I ate at their house and played until after ten o'clock before leaving. On my way home, I kept plotting how to win over these two beautiful women. You see, I'd been planning this all-encompassing scheme for a long time, but I just hadn't had the chance to make a move. Sigh, the feeling of being able to look but not touch is just... so frustrating.
"No... It's not just Qi Mei and that little girl, but also Qin Ziying. I have to get them all, otherwise when will I ever be able to handle all three of them and enjoy all the beauties? You know, I've always dreamed of seducing all the beauties in the world. How can three be enough? I need at least three hundred, no... three thousand! Ancient emperors had three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines, three thousand beauties in their harem, why can't I? There's no reason I'm inferior to them... Hehe, when that time comes, I'll change one every day, be a groom every day, and a bride every night, hehe, 3P, 4P?" Lewd images flashed through my mind, and I thought evilly. In the end, I even laughed extremely lewdly, disregarding my status.
"Damn it, just you wait, I don't believe I, Li Tianxie, can't even handle a few of you little women," I muttered to myself.
Three days later, on a sunny Sunday, the weather was fine and the breeze was gentle. Although it was a bit chilly, the sun was shining brightly. Qin Ziying and Qi Ruobing had arranged to go out together. They strolled along the streets, their laughter echoing through the bustling city.
"Sister Ziying, did you and big brother... you know...?" As they were enjoying their stroll, they happened to see a couple being intimate on the television screen. Suddenly, the little girl turned to Qin Ziying beside her and asked innocently.
"No, how could that be? Who told you that, little girl? Honestly, what are you thinking about all day?" Qin Ziying blushed instantly at the little girl's sudden question and denied it, tapping the little girl's head with her finger as she spoke.
"Hmph, you're lying! I know everything! I saw it that time, Sister Ziying didn't tell me the truth, it made me so angry! Hmph, I'm not a child anymore, you're only sixteen, and I'm almost fifteen! You're only a year older than me, yet you always call me a child!" Qi Ruobing pouted after hearing Qin Ziying's words and said angrily.
"You... how did you know?" Qin Ziying blushed after hearing the little girl's words and asked. A picture had already formed in her mind—the picture showed her and the little girl, both naked in bed. As for what they were doing... well, that goes without saying...
"Did that guy make a move on you?" Qin Ziying asked the little girl tentatively.
"No, no! It's just that last time I was at my older brother's house, I heard you and him doing 'that' in the room. I didn't know at first, but I found out from my classmates. Humph, Sister Ziying promised to compete fairly with me, and now you're doing that with my older brother..." The little girl blushed instantly upon hearing Qin Ziying's words, her face as red as an apple being combed. She pouted as she spoke. Although she looked angry, she didn't seem genuinely upset; it was more like a joke.
"Hehe, little girl, I think you're in love. If you want, don't go home tonight. I'll let that pervert stay with you. I think he'll be eager, hehe." Seeing the little girl's expression, Qin Ziying covered her mouth and said with a smile.
"You're so annoying!" the little girl said sweetly to Qin Ziying, but her expression didn't show any objection; it was more like she was shy. She then chased after Qin Ziying, tickling her. If I were here, I would be overjoyed, but unfortunately, I'm not.
The two started playfully chasing each other down the street, immediately attracting the attention of many. Undeniably, both were very beautiful and had stunning figures, drawing many onlookers. However, the two seemed oblivious, continuing their chase with smiles on their faces.
Suddenly, as they reached a secluded street, a white van pulled up beside them. A burly man in a black jacket, wearing stockings over his head, jumped out. Almost simultaneously, he grabbed Qin Ziying and the young girl from either side, grabbing them before they could even scream. Although many witnessed this, no one dared to intervene; most simply watched the spectacle as the men dragged the struggling Qin Ziying and the young girl into the van, which sped away and disappeared from sight.
"Hello? Is this Qi Mei?" As evening fell, Qi Mei's phone rang. When she picked it up, a voice that sounded neither male nor female spoke to her in a sinister tone. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell the voice had been altered; clearly, the caller was prepared.
"Yes, this is me. Who are you?" Sitting on her pale yellow sofa, Qi Mei frowned slightly upon hearing the voice. Although she didn't know the caller's identity, the voice was clearly not benevolent.
"Hehe, has your daughter, Qi Ruobing, returned home?" The androgynous voice on the other end of the line asked with a chilling smile.
"No... wait, who are you? Why are you asking about my daughter?" Qi Mei answered instinctively, but then suddenly sensed something was amiss and tensed up, asking the phone urgently and angrily.
"Hehe, you don't need to know who I am. All you need to know is that your daughter and that girl named Qin Ziying are in my hands now. So you better behave yourself. It's six o'clock now. Come to the Yindu Hotel, room 703, at eight o'clock. I'll be waiting for you here. Remember, don't tell anyone, don't let anyone know, otherwise, hmph... you can just wait to collect their corpses." The person on the phone chuckled, their voice incredibly sinister. However, their tone changed towards the end, becoming serious, and they hung up before Qi Mei could react.
"Who are you people? Hello... hello?" Qi Mei said urgently into the phone, but could only hear a busy tone. Helpless, Qi Mei could only hang up. At this moment, she was extremely anxious and panicked. She was about to pick up the phone to call the police, but then put it down. However, she still seemed a little uneasy and was about to call me, but in the end, she reluctantly put it down again.
After sitting there for a long time, he seemed to have finally made a decision, stood up, went into his room, changed his clothes a little while later, came out, and walked towards the door.
A knock sounded at the door. Looking at her watch, it was exactly eight o'clock. Qi Mei took a deep breath and knocked on the door of room 703 of the Yindu Hotel. A moment later, a burly man opened the door. The man was about thirty-four or thirty-five years old, with a scar on his face and a fierce air about him. After opening the door, he looked around and, finding no one there, gave Qi Mei a serious look, then a lewd smile appeared on his lips. He said to Qi Mei, "You're right on time. Come in, we've been waiting for you."
Qi Mei walked in expressionlessly. When she entered, she found about four or five men in the room, all burly and strong, but they didn't look like good people. One of them seemed to be the leader; everyone else was standing, but he was sitting. This man had a very lewd appearance, with triangular eyes and a mustache, and looked to be around forty years old. When he saw Qi Mei enter, his lewd eyes scanned her body incessantly, making Qi Mei feel uneasy.
"Where are my daughter and Ziying?" Qi Mei asked the men after taking a deep breath.
"Hehe, let her see them." The man with the triangular eyes gave Qi Mei a lewd look and then chuckled, before speaking to his subordinate. The subordinate understood and opened the door to the adjacent bedroom for Qi Mei. Upon opening the door, Qi Mei found Qin Ziying and the young girl tightly bound, their expressions somewhat dazed; it seemed they had been drugged.
Qi Mei rushed towards them, but was stopped halfway by a burly man who slammed the door shut. The man with the triangular eyes lewdly said to Qi Mei, "What, Miss Qi, so eager to save them? Hehe, you truly are a great mother."
"What did you do to my daughter?" Qi Mei glared at the men, especially the lewd man with the triangular eyes, her chest heaving with anger, her eyes burning with hatred as if she wanted to kill them.
"Hehe, it's nothing. We just gave them a little something to drink two minutes before you arrived, and they're reacting now," the triangular-eyed man said lewdly.
"What?! You despicable bastards!" Qi Mei shouted angrily upon hearing this. If it weren't for the safety of the little girl and Qin Ziying, she probably would have already rushed up and fought these people to the death.

Chapter 096 I Discovered, I'm Really Too Evil!
"Hehe, Miss Qi, don't worry, we didn't do anything. Our target wasn't them, so we didn't touch a single hair on their heads before this."
"What do you want?" After hearing this, Qi Mei calmed down and looked at the men in front of her coldly, making no attempt to hide the hatred in her eyes.
"Hehe... What do you think we want? Miss Qi is so beautiful, to be honest, I've admired her for a long time, but I've never had the chance. So I had no choice but to use this method to invite you here. I'm truly sorry." The man with triangular eyes stood up, leering as he walked to Qi Mei's side. He looked her up and down with a lewd gaze, then placed a hand on her shoulder.
"You... what do you want to do?" Qi Mei's face paled as she looked at the man, her body involuntarily shifting away from him.
"Hehe, it's nothing really. I'm quite interested in your body. I wonder if I could spend the night with Miss Qi?" the man said with a lewd grin.
"You... you're dreaming," Qi Mei said angrily.
"Is that so? I don't think so. However, I don't like to force people. If Miss Qi is unwilling, hehe, then forget it. But, I'll just have to let those two beautiful ladies inside do it for me." The man with triangular eyes said lewdly to Qi Mei, then his tone shifted to a lewd glance at the inner room.
"You... shameless." Qi Mei's face paled even more upon hearing this. She glanced at the inner room and angrily cursed, but a hint of despair flashed in her eyes.
"Hehe, what's wrong with being shameless once in order to get such a beautiful body like yours?" The man with triangular eyes said nonchalantly.
"You... fine, I agree, but you have to release them first. Otherwise, I'd rather die than let you succeed." Qi Mei looked at him, her eyes filled with determination. At this moment, she had decided that as long as he released the little girl and Qin Ziying, she would absolutely not let him succeed and would commit suicide immediately.
"Hehe, Miss Qi is indeed a smart person, but I can't agree to that. I can only promise to release them after it's over. Otherwise, what if you change your mind and want to die? Wouldn't I be the one who suffers? So this is the only way." The man with triangular eyes said with a smile.
"You..." Qi Mei pointed at him angrily, her eyes filled with even more despair. There was no doubt that he had shattered even her last hope.
"What? I'm not afraid to tell you, you have no choice." The man with triangular eyes laughed lewdly.
"Alright, come on." At this moment, Qi Mei's eyes were filled with despair, a tear welled up in the corner of her eye, and she closed her eyes, as if waiting for the torture to begin.
"Tianxie... I'm sorry." Qi Mei thought to herself.
"Hehe, good, good, Miss Qi is indeed a smart person, haha, great maternal love, truly great, but I don't want to play with a dead body. Drink it." The man with triangular eyes showed a hint of impatience, but still took out a bottle and laughed lewdly at Qi Mei.
"You... what is this?" Qi Mei opened her eyes and looked at the black glass bottle in front of her, asking lewdly.
"An aphrodisiac, a strong aphrodisiac, haha, I guarantee you'll be in ecstasy, that'll give us passion, come on, drink it." The triangular-eyed man said lewdly.
Qi Mei glanced at the medicine bottle, then at the door to the inner room. Tears streamed down her face. Finally, with no other choice, she drank the contents of the bottle in one gulp. Just as the man had said, it was an aphrodisiac, a powerful one. Moments after drinking it, Qi Mei felt a burning heat within her body, extremely uncomfortable and shameful, her face flushing slightly.
The triangular-eyed man didn't make a move, only watching Qi Mei with a lewd grin. After about two or three minutes, Qi Mei felt her consciousness blurring, the heat and desire within her intensifying. She even felt an irresistible urge to take off her clothes and release her pent-up desire, but she held on with her willpower, though her expression grew increasingly dazed.
As her senses continued to fade, Qi Mei felt even more desperate. At this moment, she was filled with regret, regretting that she hadn't given her virginity to the man she loved. But now, it was clearly too late; she was about to be defiled by someone else. Thinking of this, Qi Mei's eyes blurred with tears. Just as Qi Mei's consciousness was about to collapse, the door was suddenly kicked open, and a handsome young man stormed in, followed by more than a dozen burly men in suits. After rushing in, they quickly pointed guns at the men's heads. Upon seeing the young man, a joyful smile appeared on Qi Mei's lips, after which her mind became hazy.
No need to ask, this person was none other than myself. I rushed in, angrily shouting at the men whose heads were already pointed at by my men, "You bastards dare to touch my woman! I think you've had enough of living! Men, arrest them all and take them to the next room. I want to kill them with my own hands!"
As I spoke, I glanced at the somewhat dazed Qi Mei, then led my men to arrest the group and leave, then closed the door.
"Tell me honestly, did you see anything you shouldn't have seen, or touch anything you shouldn't have touched?" After arriving next door, my expression calmed, and my men released the group. I spoke to them indifferently.
"No, Young Master Xie, those are your women! We wouldn't dare touch a hair on those ladies' heads, even if we had the guts of a lion! I swear we only grabbed their shoulders, nothing else!" The man with the triangular eyes looked at me obsequiously.
"Hmm, you guys know what's good for you. You did a decent job, but your acting was terrible. If Qi Mei hadn't been nervous, you'd probably have been found out. Here's a check for $10,000 and five passports. Go to Manila. I've made arrangements for you here. You'll be taken care of once you get there. Don't come back. Also, I don't want any rumors about this. Otherwise, I'll make sure you suffer a terrible fate even abroad." I nodded in satisfaction at them, then tossed them a check and several passports. Later on, I naturally had to give them a little warning. As for the people next to me, I wasn't worried about what they would say. These were elites trained by the family, unlike Li Cheng and the others. These people were essentially death squads trained from childhood, complete killing machines. They couldn't do anything but obey orders. These were the most loyal and terrifying force in the Li family, and they were recently sent to protect me. After all, the matter of Long Yi couldn't be kept from the old man.
"Yes...yes, Young Master Xie, don't worry, we absolutely won't say a word. If anyone tells anyone about this, I'll kill them without you even having to say a word." The man with the triangular eyes immediately put away the check and passport with a smile and said respectfully to me.
"Well, you can go now. Don't stay any longer. Leave tonight. I've already made arrangements for you. Remember, tonight, if any of you are still in H City tomorrow morning, then I guarantee you'll never be able to leave." I said coldly to them, and left without waiting for their reply.
After leaving the room, I unconsciously touched my nose and muttered to myself, "Sigh, I've noticed I'm getting more and more wicked lately."
I went back inside, pushed open the door, and saw Qi Mei lying there, her expression dazed, her clothes disheveled, most of her snow-white skin exposed. She was even touching her own large, snow-white breasts, occasionally letting out alluring moans.
She was currently pulling down her pink bra, her short skirt had slipped down, revealing her full buttocks, and her white panties were damp with moisture. One hand unconsciously touched her genitals.
"Damn, how is this guy so good? That Xiao Bai guy is really shameless. Next time, I'll want more." Seeing Qi Mei's appearance, I immediately felt a surge of desire.
Despite my thoughts, I didn't hesitate. I walked over to Qi Mei and helped her up. Qi Mei, her eyes glazed, looked at me and rushed towards me, embracing me and kissing me incessantly. One of her delicate hands caressed my body, passionately tearing at my clothes, her full breasts rubbing against my skin, sending waves of pleasure through me.
Although I desperately wanted to rush over and take her right there, it wasn't the right time yet, because there were two other people inside.
I carried the already disoriented Qi Mei into the inner room. Qin Ziying and the little girl were still tied up there, but the ropes weren't very tight; they had mostly broken free. After all, those guys didn't dare tie them up too tightly. So, like Qi Mei, their clothes were disheveled. And to my utter astonishment, Qin Ziying and the little girl were already kissing.
"Damn it, stealing my wife's first kiss?" This absurd thought popped into my head, but then I thought, well, it's all mine anyway, so it's all the same. I didn't care anymore. After placing Qi Mei, who was groping me, on the bed, I kissed her without hesitation, burying my head in her full breasts.
Two girls with dazed expressions surrounded me when they saw me come in, and the three of us enveloped me, kissing me incessantly. We quickly became unruly, and soon we were both naked. After a scream from Qi Mei, I entered her body. First a scream, then I heard Qi Mei's comfortable moans.
At that moment, it felt less like sex and more like rape. Of course, this time it wasn't me raping someone else, but them raping me. I lay on the bed, spread-eagled, while Qi Mei thrust against me relentlessly. Her full breasts swayed around me with each movement, while the young girl next to me grabbed me, one hand caressing her tender yet full breasts. Qin Ziying, on the other hand, directly placed my hand on her lower body. The room was
filled with the vibrant energy of spring, the moans of the young girls echoing throughout. To be honest, the tightness was incredible. After Qi Mei let out a high-pitched cry and went limp, the young girl took her place. Completely blinded by desire, she sat down without hesitation, letting out a cry of pain, followed by a groan.
Honestly, the feeling was amazing. All night long, the four of us were engaged in the most primal acts, the three of us constantly and tightly intertwined, never stopping for a moment. The captivating moans carried throughout the entire room; I even suspected they could be heard outside.
It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that everything ended. The four of us fell asleep, exhausted, in that messy room. To be honest, if I weren't exceptionally strong, I probably would have been crippled or even dead by now. I guarantee that any other man would have died from exhaustion.
The energy within my body was constantly flowing. The two women's virginity undeniably increased my strength considerably. Through this flow of energy, I could clearly feel that gentle, yin-like internal force circulating within my body, passing through my limbs and bones, and finally spreading throughout my entire being. My strength had broken through many barriers again.
The process was complete, and dawn had broken. Bright sunlight streamed in through the window, bathing us in its glow. Judging by the sun's altitude, it was at least ten o'clock, already high in the sky. Turning to look at the three completely naked bodies before me, I felt a mix of desire and worry. Explaining things to them would be troublesome, even though I had prepared myself and found a plausible reason, and they all liked me. It still wouldn't be easy, especially… Qi Mei and the little girl. Even if they weren't mother and daughter, they were relatives—an aunt and a niece, sigh… It didn't seem easy. But there was no other way; for my grand dream, for my future sexual happiness, I had to temporarily apologize to them.
The first to open her eyes was none other than Qin Ziying. Having been with me a few times before, Qin Ziying had some experience, and her body naturally adjusted, making her the first to wake up. When she opened her eyes, the first thing she noticed was her naked body, and she screamed in surprise. However, she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw me beside her. But her scream woke up the two people next to her.
"Ah...ah...ah..." The screams in the room were deafening, making the henchmen guarding outside the door gasp in astonishment. If they weren't absolute loyalists of the Li family, they would probably be chattering away by now.
"Can you guys stop screaming?" I said helplessly, seeing their continuous screaming.
After hearing my words, they stopped, but looking at our naked bodies, they felt more surprise and confusion than shame. Qin Ziying looked at me with a hint of sadness, her eyes saying, "Give me an explanation."
Qi Mei seemed to understand a little, and besides a hint of shyness, there was also a hint of helplessness, but she didn't say anything, just looked at Qi Ruobing with some concern.
Compared to the two girls, the one in the worst situation was undoubtedly the little girl, Qi Ruobing. Her eyes were filled with confusion as she looked around at the people, unsure what to say, just staring blankly at me and her fake mother, Qi Mei.
"Well, actually, I didn't mean to. Yesterday you were kidnapped by bad guys. I rushed over as soon as I got the news, only to find you'd been drugged with aphrodisiacs. Qi Mei was here too. I fought them off, but then... to be honest, I'm really innocent. You were the ones who initiated it. I was held down by the three of you, I had no choice." I said helplessly, my expression seeming to say, "I didn't mean to, you were the ones who initiated it, you raped me, I'm the victim."
Hearing this, Qi Mei and Qin Ziying looked at me with a knowing expression, their gazes filled with gratitude, and of course, even more shyness. The tears in Qin Ziying's eyes turned into helplessness. After all, she understood that in that situation, it might really be as I said. In her eyes, although I was lecherous, my character was still good.
"Waaah... Waaah..." While the two girls were dealt with, the little girl Qi Ruobing wasn't so easy to handle. She was crying so hard that the room was filled with her sobs.
"Don't cry, don't cry, Ruobing, be good, don't cry. It's your big brother's fault, please don't cry, okay?" I quickly comforted her, since she was the most difficult one to deal with and the one I felt most guilty about.
"Waaah, how could this happen... How could Mommy and big brother do that... What am I going to do now?" the little girl sobbed. Even so, I knew the biggest problem probably wasn't that, but rather Qi Mei's identity. After all, no matter what, she was now the little girl's mother, which was something the little girl couldn't accept.
"Uh... Don't worry, I'll take responsibility for you..." I said helplessly, shamelessly addressing them.
"Bingbing, don't be sad. Actually... actually, I'm not your mother, I'm your aunt. Your mother died a long time ago. Think about it, I'm only 24 this year, how could I be your mother? Don't cry, sweetie..." Seeing this situation, Qi Mei gritted her teeth and finally made up her mind to tell the truth. After all, she understood that if she didn't clarify things now, this matter would probably become a dead end.

Chapter 097
"Mom, what did you say? You're not lying to me, are you?" The little girl was stunned after hearing this, staring blankly at Qi Mei, tears streaming down her face, her expression full of surprise and confusion.
"Yes... back then..." Qi Mei choked up and cried as she told the little girl about what happened back then. Qin Ziying listened attentively beside her, while I took this opportunity to get dressed. After I finished dressing, I turned around and saw that the three of them were already sobbing uncontrollably.
Faced with this situation, although as a man I should comfort them, as someone directly involved, my rational mind told me it was best not to linger. After all, once they've dealt with this, they'll definitely target me, and things will get complicated then. I don't believe that these three, having turned against their families, would be crying and begging me to give them a threesome…
I've only seen that kind of scene twice on TV, and only Wei Xiaobao could handle them perfectly. I don't think I have that ability. Originally, my plan was to deal with them all at once, and then take them down one by one. So I decided to leave.
"Come back, Li Tianxie, where are you going?" Qi Mei's voice rang out behind me as soon as I reached the door. Her voice was a little angry and a little coquettish. It seems she's a mature woman after all, much better than Qin Ziying and the little girl. She was the first to grab me when I tried to run away.
"Uh, actually, I saw you guys crying so hard, and you were exhausted from last night, so I was going to get you some water and something to eat." After being caught, I immediately put on a smile and said to the three of them, glancing at their nearly perfect bodies as I spoke.
"You... get out... we have something to say, don't come in without our permission." My words undoubtedly made the three of them blush. Qin Ziying glared at me fiercely before speaking, her words giving me a convenient excuse.
"Do you think I want to be here?" After thinking it over, I immediately walked out, disappearing from their sight before they even had a chance to say anything.
I went outside and sat down in the room, turning on the hotel TV to watch. But my eyes kept wandering inside, my mind racing, trying to figure out how to handle those women. I wondered what they were saying. They say two women make a drama, and with three of them, plus me, we could have a mahjong game. It must be incredibly lively inside. Normally, with my skills, finding out what was going on wouldn't be difficult, but even though I'm a rogue, I would never do something so vulgar. Besides, listening too much might not be a good thing; it could ruin all the lies I'd planned. So I decided not to eavesdrop.
"Tianxie, come in." About half an hour later, the door to the inner room suddenly opened, and Qin Ziying, dressed, came out. She spoke softly to me from the doorway, her tone incredibly gentle, her eyes utterly alluring.
"There must be a conspiracy." The thought immediately flashed through my mind. I looked towards the door with a suspicious look, but unfortunately, Qin Ziying had already gone inside. Looking at the empty doorway, although I was a million times unwilling, I still gritted my teeth and walked over.
"Uh, I wonder what brings you three beauties here?" I walked in and saw that all three were already dressed. They looked at me gently. Qin Ziying's eyes were full of tenderness, the little girl looked expectant and innocent, and Qi Mei was... well, how to put it... undeniably seductive. I don't know if it was intentional, but she was only wearing a semi-transparent nightgown, looking at me with a charming expression, her eyes constantly flashing me alluring glances. To be honest, the scene was truly tempting; I believe any man would be captivated. However, I felt a chill run down my spine. Looking at the three of them, I had a bad feeling.
"Tianxie, tell me, who's prettier?" Qin Ziying asked me with a smile.
"Uh, all three of you are very beautiful, each with your own unique charm and stunning looks. You all have your own special talents, and I think you're all equally beautiful. So, I think you're all different, and I can't tell who's prettier. You're all gorgeous." I answered them without hesitation. To be honest, Qin Ziying is the prettiest, the little girl is the cutest, and Qi Mei is the most mature and charming. They do seem to be evenly matched, but... even if I could tell, I wouldn't say anything more. After all, it's not good to offend anyone. This answer is undoubtedly the best in my opinion.
"Then isn't there one of you who you think is particularly pretty?" Qin Ziying couldn't help but ask.
"Uh, I can't tell." I paused for a moment but still answered in the same way.
"Then... brother, which one of us do you like?" A hint of frustration flashed across the three of them, and then the little girl looked at me innocently, her eyes revealing no trace of eagerness.
"Let me tell you the truth?" I asked tentatively.
"Of course!" the three of them said in unison.
"Uh... I like all three of them." Looking at their expressions, I immediately replied. Damn it, I absolutely couldn't tell the truth now, absolutely couldn't show the slightest bias, or I'd be in big trouble.
"You... so if you had to choose one of us, who would you choose?" Qin Ziying glanced at me angrily and said.
"Choose one? Can I choose all three?" I asked tentatively again.
"No way!" Almost immediately, all three of them said rudely to me.
"Fine then, I don't want any of you three, I'll go find someone else." I rolled my eyes at them and said, then made a move to leave.
"Wait... what are you trying to do?" the three of them said in unison again. Seriously, when did these three become so united?
"Come on, I like all three of you, but since you're forcing me to choose, I can't decide who I truly love. So I've decided I don't want any of you, and I'll find someone else and pour all my feelings into her. That way, I won't feel it's unfair to you three. After I leave, you three must take good care of yourselves." I said to the three of them, my face filled with heartbreak. I was about to leave, having already opened the door.
"No... Brother, don't go!" The little girl was the most impatient. Just as I was about to move, she immediately jumped off the bed, grabbed my clothes, and said sweetly to me.
After the little girl grabbed me, I immediately stopped and turned around. Looking at her, I heard her crying and saying, "Brother, I don't want you to leave! I don't mind at all! I already told Mom and Sister Qin Ziying that we didn't give you a choice right now. We just wanted to know your thoughts, that's why we said that. We've already said that as long as you don't get married, we won't force you to choose. Please don't be angry, waaaaah..."
Hearing her words, I suddenly understood and couldn't help but chuckle to myself. It seems this little girl is really good. It was a mistake not to eavesdrop earlier; I must eavesdrop next time! Really, I absolutely must eavesdrop next time!
"Oh, is that so? Then I'll let it go. Actually, I like all three of you, without any sense of superiority or inferiority. As for the future marriage, I think there's no need to discuss it. Don't worry, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer then." Although I was overjoyed, I still managed to maintain a serious expression as I spoke to the three people in front of me.
As for the future arrangements? I can just marry them all. It's not a problem for me at all. Can anyone in all of China object? And even if someone objects, what good will their objections do? Obviously not, so I'm not worried at all.
"Hmph, remember what you said. The three of us will only tolerate you until you get married. You have to choose one then. Also, you're not allowed to touch any of the three of us after that." Qin Ziying rolled her eyes at the little girl, as if to say that she was stupid, then turned to me and pouted.
"I know, I know I won't do anything I shouldn't do to you again." I said with a smile to Qin Ziying, and as I spoke, I walked over to the three women, sat in the center, and put my arms around the two on either side of me, while Bu Yatou sat behind me.
"Tianxie, what are you doing touching me like that... Didn't you just say you wouldn't do anything inappropriate?" My hands unconsciously wandered over Qin Ziying's body after a moment, and Qin Ziying's slightly panting voice came out.
"Hehe, yeah... I said I wouldn't do anything I shouldn't do, but... you are my women, and what we are doing is the most appropriate thing to do..." I chuckled and said.
"Tianxie..."
Qin Ziying groaned, and then the room was filled with heavy breathing. None of the three women escaped.
Three days later, my phone rang again one morning. I glanced at Qin Ziying sleeping beside me. I'd been spending every night with her these past few days, and last night it was undoubtedly Qin Ziying I was with. I picked up the phone, and Li Cheng's respectful voice immediately came through, saying, "Young Master Xie, I just received news that the Japanese Yamaguchi-gumi has made its move in our area. Last night, they took over the underworld in HC City and have now officially landed in H Province. They've now unified the HC underworld, and they're increasing their manpower here." "
What? How many of them have come?" I sat up abruptly upon hearing this. This was no small matter. While I was satisfied with Li Cheng's work, I was more surprised than shocked, because the Japanese actions were indeed unexpected. Although they had ambitions towards China and controlled many people and gangs both openly and secretly, they had never openly invaded before. This time, it was clearly not so simple.
"2700 men, but they seem to have been prepared for this for a while. It seems the Japanese have big ambitions this time. After unifying the underworld in HC City through an inside man last night, they immediately started stabilizing their forces and are now increasing their numbers here. Just now, they increased their forces to 8000. It seems they were fully prepared long ago," Li Cheng said respectfully to me.
"How are their firearms? What's the reaction from the people over there?" After the initial surprise, I had calmed down and asked Li Cheng carefully.
"The reaction over there was huge, with many people resisting, but all those who resisted were killed. HC City was occupied by the Japanese before, but that was during the invasion of China. Many elderly people there still hate those bastards, especially the older generation. Although they've taken over the underworld this time, there's still a lot of resistance. Just last night, those Japanese killed over 100 people who refused to submit, and their methods were extremely cruel. They even raided some tribes. It's said they have at least five truckloads of weapons, and everyone has a gun. But this is our territory after all, so they didn't dare use too many weapons. Yesterday, they used samurai swords, and only a few people used guns." Li Cheng became quite angry when he spoke of the Japanese methods. Clearly, the Japanese methods were anything but ordinary, otherwise Li Cheng wouldn't be so angry.
"How's the situation with the legitimate authorities over there?" I asked, trying to maintain a calm demeanor and suppressing my anger.
"All the officials there have been bribed. The Japanese have gone all out; it seems they're planning to establish themselves there. After all, it's a coastal city, and smuggling there would be a huge business opportunity. The Japanese won't let this opportunity pass them by; they've been wanting to dump their smuggled goods here for a long time," Li Cheng replied respectfully.
"Smuggling? Hmph, smuggling requires eight thousand people? And they're still increasing. Hmph, the entire Yamaguchi-gumi only has one hundred thousand people. They've only transferred one-tenth of them. Hmph, their ambitions are quite large. Five truckloads of weapons, good... good. I want to see what they're capable of. Spread this news; we need to create some trouble for those Japanese. Also, have our men prepare for war, prepare to expand eastward, and try to open a road to fight the Japanese head-on as soon as possible," I said calmly, but a hint of murderous intent flashed in my eyes. The Japanese dared to steal my territory; if I let them leave China peacefully, I'll change my surname to theirs.
"Yes, Young Master Xie, we'll spread this news immediately and make sure everyone knows," Li Cheng said respectfully.
"What's wrong, Tianxie? What happened?" At this moment, Qin Ziying stretched lazily and hugged me from behind. She leaned her beautiful face against my back and whispered to me. Her voice was so gentle. Qin Ziying was always like this. This little girl was always like a gentle kitten in bed, but of course, she was a bit wild when she got out of bed.
"It's nothing, just a little something. You know, dear Ziying, you know I started a company, but they just called and said there's some trouble, so I had to talk to them for a bit." I turned around and pulled the naked Qin Ziying into my arms, saying this to her. To be honest, Qin Ziying knew a little about my situation, and knew I wasn't exactly a respectable person. Of course, she didn't know the specifics. She had asked me, but I hadn't explained in detail. I only said that my family gave me money to start a company with someone else, and coincidentally, it had some close ties with the Bingjian Society. Of course, that was a lie. When I told her that, Qin Ziying looked completely skeptical, but she didn't ask any further questions. After all, Qin Ziying was a smart woman; she knew what she should and shouldn't ask. Since I didn't say anything, she didn't press the matter.
"But I just heard you mention something about Japanese people?" Qin Ziying looked at me suspiciously, her eyes already misting over. Her expression seemed to say, "You have to tell me the truth, or I'll cry."
"Well, it's like this. My company has had some friction with the Japanese, and you know how annoying those Japanese are," I said with a smile, my lips already pressed against hers.
"Okay, I know, that's how it is. To be honest, those Japanese are really annoying," Qin Ziying gave me a seductive look, then said languidly.
Then… the room erupted in a flurry of activity, the sounds of lovemaking filling the air. More than an hour later, a high-pitched groan escaped, and we both gasped for breath. A thought flashed through my mind: "This feels so good after getting these women."
In my opinion, what is the purpose of life? To pursue something. And what is that pursuit? Money, beauty, power—these are pursuits, but people's pursuits are different. What I pursue is beauty. I have plenty of money and power, so my current pursuit is beauty. Holding Qin Ziying, who was naked and clinging to me like a koala, I roared inwardly, "Beauties, just you wait, I will definitely hold you all in my arms!"
