放荡娇妻肉交换闺蜜

What amused many people even more was that Elder Jiang Qingcang personally visited a hotpot restaurant called Pei’s Dalhae Lao. The elder usually lived a secluded life, so his sudden visit inevitably surprised many.

Of course, it only surprised certain individuals.

City Hall.

Upon hearing the news, the first thing that Governor Zhou Weiren thought was, “Does that old fox of the Jiang family also know about the relationship between the Pei family kid and Mr. Han?”

“This…” Secretary Lin hesitated.

He hadn’t heard about this at all.

Besides, not many people knew about the relationship between Pei Jinye and Mr. Han.

No one knew what the two had discussed that day.

“That person from the Jiang family is nothing but an old fox…” Zhou Weiren fell into thought.

In a low voice, Secretary Lin said, “Governor, looking at it from another angle, if Elder Jiang truly intends to invest in Student Pei, then in a sense, he could be your ally. With his support, your future anti-corruption efforts might face less resistance.”

Zhou Weiren looked up at him.

“Let’s wait and see.”

He was somewhat tempted.

…

Behind the back mountain of the Jiang family.

“Do you mean to take care of that store?” The middle-aged butler carefully confirmed the intentions of the elder.

“Just take routine care of it. It’s the person from his family that is the truly outstanding talent worth investing in…” Pei Jinye didn’t skimp on praising himself.

He knew he had a bunch of heavyweights standing behind him.

He was also worried that his secondary identity was too conspicuous, lest the big shots behind him decided to get rid of him.

By revealing a friendly signal, even without contact with those behind him… the other party would have some hesitation and would not want to cause offense.

He wasn’t worried about his senior sister; she was not of the mortal world and wouldn’t bother with the human relationships in Da Peng City.

The one he cared about was Zhou Weiren.

Before his first rebirth, Zhou Weiren had used the opportunity to purge the Jiang family’s main branch to sweep clean the City Hall in one fell swoop.

Now, he had personally paved another path for Zhou Weiren because he didn’t want the governor to have any inappropriate thoughts because of the internal strife within the Jiang family.

He still had some fondness for the governor.

…

Succeeding Jiang Pinghe’s car accident, even before the shock and rage of the Jiang family’s main branch had subsided, Jiang Xinrun personally led a team and dealt with all the individuals on the list who colluded with the Wu Family.

Those with the Jiang surname had one leg disabled, and those without were killed outright.

During the whole process, not a single person from the Jiang family’s main branch dared to appear and stop it.

Later, Jiang Xinrun appeared before the elder of the Jiang family’s main branch. Despite the elder’s spirit being far less than half of Jiang Qingcang’s, Jiang Xinrun still showed some respect… at least in his tone.

Stepping on one of the younger generation of the Jiang family, he calmly said, “Elder, to live a life, harmony brings prosperity to all, don’t you agree?”

The elder of the Jiang family’s main branch kept a cold face and didn’t speak.

Jiang Xinrun smiled and said, “Please don’t be cross with me. Someone from our family said that it’s not the place for outsiders to interfere in our family’s affairs. It’s one thing for Jiang Pinghe to have some crooked thoughts, but to go so far as to provoke openly, anyone who doesn’t know any better might think that the Jiang’s are dogs and the Wu’s the true masters. You’ve lived a long life, don’t make it unpleasant for yourself towards the end. You know better than I do what kind of person Elder Jiang is; this time is a warning, next time we may not be as lenient.”

Having said that.

He led his team and turned to leave.

The younger member of the Jiang family that was stepped on couldn’t contain his anger and rushed to launch a sneak attack, only to have one of his arms severed by Jiang Xinrun’s sword.

Amid the screams of agony, the faces of the Jiang family’s main branch were filled with shock and rage.

Jiang Xinrun looked around, seeing Jiang Lingsu trembling in fear—a stark contrast to her usually charming demeanor.

With a disdainful smile.

Jiang Xinrun led his team away.

…

Inside the main house of the Jiang family, dust billowed.

The elder waved his hand weakly: “Go and save the injured.”

“Father, this time the second house of the Jiang family has gone too far!” Jiang Lingsu’s father exclaimed angrily.

The elder looked at him calmly, “If you’re so upset, you should have acted just now.”

Jiang Lingsu’s father instantly flushed with embarrassment.

The elder sighed as if he finally saw through everything: “All these years, Jiang Qingcang has let us develop, but in the end… he has never taken us seriously. Let’s put an end to this farce.”

Having said that, he turned and went into the secluded part of the back mountain.

The people in the main house looked at each other in bewilderment.

…

By the time Jiang Xinrun returned to the ancestral home to make his report, the middle-aged butler dared not even breathe too loudly.

After so many years, this time the elder’s methods were exceptionally decisive and ruthless.

He glanced furtively.

The elder was calmly flipping through a cultivation manual.

After Jiang Xinrun finished his report, he bowed and stepped back.

Waiting for about ten minutes, Pei Jinye finally slowly raised his head: “Order a medicinal meal to be prepared.”

“Yes, Elder,” the middle-aged man went to give the order.

Pei Jinye put down the manual, half-closed his eyes, and continued to mentally model the technique.

“Buzz buzz.”

Suddenly his phone vibrated.

Pei Jinye didn’t open his eyes.

He directly checked the message using his talent in the spiritual network.

Silver Art: [Did you really butcher the Luo Jinhua brothers?]

Silver Art: [Froggy bullfrog.]

Silver Art: [When did you become so skilled, so awesome.]

Silver Art: [Oh right, almost forgot something important, Lou Hai is here, he says the Elder is waiting for you to come over.]

Pei Jinye: “…”

“Elder…” The middle-aged butler had just appeared with the medicinal meal when Pei Jinye got up to leave.

“Leave it to me, all of you may leave,” Pei Jinye took the ceramic steamer with the meal.

The middle-aged butler led the others away.

With a thought, the ceramic steamer was collected into his personal storage.

After fastening his mask, Pei Jinye’s figure vanished into the back mountain of Jiang’s family at an even swifter speed than usual.

…

Inside a bar.

Startled by how quickly Pei Jinye had appeared, Silver Art gasped, “You got here so fast?”

“Just happened to be nearby,” Pei Jinye responded, concisely maintaining his aloof Demon King persona.

A head filled with curiosity poked through the door. Hong Luo sized up Pei Jinye, then leaned in and whispered, “Big Brother Demon King, can I come with you to gain some experience? I heard the Western Fire League Master is offering five million for your head.”

Hearing this, Pei Jinye looked over and asked in a kind tone, “Do you want it then?”

Hong Luo shook her head decisively.

At that moment, Lou Hai approached, “Hong Luo, stop messing around. There are more pressing matters to attend to with the Elder…”

Hong Luo stuck out her tongue.

Lou Hai turned to the Demon King, “With the Western Fire League suddenly challenging us, the Elder thinks you should take this opportunity to practice.”

Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow, “Weapons?”

Lou Hai smiled, “The Elder guessed you would ask that, so your sword is already prepared. As soon as you’re ready, we can leave immediately.”

Pei Jinye nodded, “Then let’s make it quick. I need to get back and take my medicine.”

“Huh??” Lou Hai chuckled dryly but acted as if he hadn’t heard anything.

The spacetime tunnel opened, and just as Pei Jinye was about to step through, Silver Art whispered from behind, “Good luck.”

Pei Jinye looked back at her and silently smiled, then disappeared on the spot with Lou Hai.

…

“Where’s the Elder?”

Upon arriving at the courtyard again, Pei Jinye noticed the Elder wasn’t there, and couldn’t help but wonder.

“We dare not inquire about the Elder’s whereabouts,” Lou Hai shook his head as he led Pei Jinye to a pond where a sword stood by a stone table.

It was Demon Abyss.

Pei Jinye took the sword with a smile in his eyes, “The Elder is quite thoughtful.”

Lou Hai forced a smile, not daring to agree.

Sheathing Demon Abyss, Pei Jinye looked up at the whirlwind of sand and dust hovering over the courtyard.

“Let’s go, time for a kill.”

…

A desert storm raged.

The caravan Pei Jinye traveled with meandered through the endless sea of sand.

Suddenly, Pei Jinye’s eyes snapped open as if he’d heard something.

Then—

Boom!

An explosive roar erupted, and a fiercely bright sea of fire burst from the desert sands in an instant.

Accompanied by an earth-shattering blast, countless waves of dust rolled with the towering flames, becoming a devastating sandstorm that seemed to churn with boundless fury.

At that moment, even Lou Hai, ten kilometers away, couldn’t help but look up, gazing at the crimson blaze soaring into the sky. His face turned completely pale.

He screamed, “Quick, we need to rescue them!”

He couldn’t bear to think of the consequences…

But one thing was certain; if the Demon King truly perished, they would all undoubtedly meet their demise alongside him!

…

After the fiery maelstrom’s last burst of heat subsided, it still left a faint warmth in the air.

Pei Jinye slowly lifted his head, staring at the flames in the sky blooming like flowers from the Other Shore, as his bangs fluttered in the fiery gale.

Someone wanted him dead!

Had it not been for his strong sense and timely evasion, that blast would have done more than merely scorched his skin.

Underneath Flesh Rebirth.

Pei Jinye’s body swiftly regenerated.

Tearing off his tattered clothes to reveal his muscular upper body, he donned the Flame Spirit Dragon Armor.

Behind the mask.

Murderous intent filled Pei Jinye’s eyes.

With a “whoosh,” Demon Abyss leapt back into his hand from the ground.

He slowly lifted his head.

“Madman or not, what if I slay you all?”

…

Three kilometers away.

Within a sand dune amid the storm, two figures covered with dust masks peered through binoculars, occasionally whispering to each other.

“Is he dead?”

“With such force, how could he not be!”

“No idea who was in that caravan… but if it’s a top member of the Old Gods Association, we’d be making a major contribution this time.”

“Such a big commotion, it must be some high-ranking figure. Let’s check the corpses afterward.”

“Finally encountered such a big fish after all this waiting!”

“Let’s go.”

Facing a blast of hot air, one of them had just stood up and was brushing the sand off the binoculars when his throat guard was pierced, and blood splattered forth.

“Slash!”

The body was sent flying.

Startled, his companion hastily retreated, blocking Pei Jinye’s grasping hand with a short blade concealed in his sleeve.

But he hadn’t anticipated the overwhelming strength of his adversary.

The arm holding the short blade broke as soon as Pei Jinye touched it.

The scream was cut short.

With one hand, the approaching figure savagely grasped down, the fierce Gang Qi exploding the headguard, and his domineering grip pressed onto the man’s face.

Two words sealed his doom.

“Enter dream.”
