When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 198 Secret Plan
Three minutes later, only Yun Shu remained in the tea room.

The special guest has left, leaving behind an empty cup of tea.

—Tea for toasting.

He eventually agreed to Yun Shu's conditions, confident that Yun Shu would not go back on her word.

Just as Yun Shu said, the title of Lord of Baiyujing is no longer important to him. As long as it is not Bai Ze who gets it, it doesn't matter who gets it.

Furthermore, the other party's background made it impossible for Yun Shu to break the contract.

In this way, Bai Ze gained an opponent, and Yun Shu gained an ally.

"I actually hope Bai Ze kills you, that would make Bai Ze an enemy of great importance," Yun Shu chuckled.

As she said this, Yun Shu tapped her smart bracelet and dialed a number.

The light screen projection lit up again, revealing a middle-aged man wearing a long robe and with his hair in a bun.

"Uncle Qu, I've finished here," Yun Shu said.

Qu Jingxuan, visible on the screen, nodded slightly and said, "The betting odds on Wanyi Zhiji have changed. Bai Ze's bet has now reached 300 million. However, your bet is not low either, almost 200 million."

What Bai Ze could think of, others could also think of.

There are still quite a few smart people in this world, especially those who frequent Wanyizhiji.

Because those who aren't smart might lose their lives in a single transaction.

While WanYiZhiJi guarantees fair transactions, it is not responsible if someone leaks their private information and is subsequently contacted by the company.

Ultimately, this is an online black market, teeming with people willing to sell their kidneys; there are hardly any kind-hearted people here.

The odds for Bai Ze have changed dramatically. Some people are following the betting odds, while others suspect that it's a scheme orchestrated by capital to exploit Yun Shuga.

Therefore, Yun Shu's odds were not too far off from Bai Ze's.

Yun Shu had clearly anticipated this, saying, "Then, I'll trouble Uncle Qu to organize a match. I've already won over the target; he's the biggest winner. With this inside information, it's enough to attract some important figures to get involved."

Whether you're following Bai Ze's lead or guessing that capital is setting a trap, you're just stepping stones.

The more they plant, the more they will ultimately reap.

The lower the odds for Bai Ze and Yun Shu, the higher the odds for the underdog.

Such profits are enough to attract some people to join in and organize the game.

Now it really turns out that capital is orchestrating this whole thing.

And those who orchestrated this scheme have unwittingly sided with Yun Shu.

At least in this martial arts competition in Yujing, they stood on the same side as Yun Shu.

At that time, these will all be helpful.

A cold glint appeared in Yun Shu's eyes.

"it is good."

Qu Jingxuan readily agreed, secretly thinking, 'If only my son had half of his abilities.'

A son should be like Yun Shu.

Of course, having a son like Bai Ze is not impossible.

A somewhat absurd thought crossed his mind, and Qu Jingxuan continued, "Nephew, how did your mother fare after her fight with Mu Yaoguang last night?"

News of Lin Suying being slapped had already spread online. Although Qu Jingxuan wanted to inquire about the situation, he chose to take a roundabout approach to avoid provoking Lin Suying's anger. Lin Suying was an extremely arrogant woman who considered Mu Yaoguang a formidable enemy; she couldn't accept being wronged by Mu Yaoguang, let alone being slapped.

"Mu Yaoguang is meticulous and her bottom line cannot be forced out. It is difficult to see any clues about her."

Yun Shu gave a bitter smile as he said, "My mother was slapped by her. The yin and yang energy seeped into the skin of her face like a maggot clinging to a bone, and she could never get rid of it. Now my mother has to wear a veil."

The yin and yang energies have already seeped into the skin texture of the cheeks. If you forcibly dispel them, it's like cutting off flesh, removing the part of the flesh that has been infused with them.

Even though Lin Suying's cultivation level was such that she could recover even if she cut off her flesh, what woman would be willing to accept such a method?

Therefore, the only way is to gradually wear away the Yin and Yang energies.

However, the Yin and Yang energy cultivated through the "General Introduction to the Great Yi" is infinitely varied. Even if Lin Suying herself has a high level of cultivation, it would be a long and arduous task to eradicate it.

During this process, Lin Suyi could only have the slap mark on her face.

Upon hearing this, Qu Jingxuan was also very glad that he had made the decision, thankfully he hadn't gone looking for trouble.

At the same time, he said with regret, "It's a pity that we couldn't force out Mu Yaoguang's true nature and see if she had really fallen into demonic possession."

Based on the previous inferences, Qu Jingxuan was about 60-70% certain that Mu Yaoguang had become possessed by a demon. However, no matter how reasonable his inferences were, they were useless without evidence.

Mu Yaoguang is no ordinary person; it's impossible to investigate her based on speculation.

"Yes."

Yun Shu was also quite disappointed, but he added, "After fighting with Mu Yaoguang, my mother is certain that she was indeed holding back a great deal. My mother is by no means weak among eight-star martial artists. Mu Yaoguang wasted five years, and even if she is exceptionally talented, she could not have held back that much."

Lin Suying was of course a chosen one, a genius girl. Although the term "girl" has expired, the term "genius" has definitely not expired.

Mu Yaoguang wasted five years; theoretically, even if she had surpassed Lin Suyi, the gap shouldn't have been that large.

unless······
"She didn't waste five years at all, or rather, less than five years."

Qu Jingxuan added to what Yun Shu hadn't said, "If we add the physical supernatural powers brought by the Great Freedom Demon Blood, Mu Yaoguang would absolutely be able to surpass your mother."

Only in this way can Mu Yaoguang's current strength be explained.

As for Mu Yaoguang, who has wasted five years and still far surpasses Lin Suying...
Lin Suyi said it was impossible, absolutely impossible!

In any case, she would never accept this absurd guess, and even Qu Jingxuan thought it was completely illogical.

"If we want to deal with Mu Yaoguang, we have to start by investigating her hidden secrets," Qu Jingxuan concluded.

"However, for now, we must first eliminate any possibility of Bai Ze taking over. Don't worry, my dear nephew, in this martial arts competition in Yujing, Bai Ze will definitely not be the one who has the last laugh."

The two reached an understanding and began their first collaboration after officially joining forces.

······
······
Qu Jingxuan hung up the communication and watched the light screen slowly press down, a thoughtful look appearing in his eyes.

Just then, a middle-aged man knocked on the door and entered Qu Jingxuan's study, saying, "Dean Qu, the results of Young Master Mingfeng's medical examination are in. Everything is normal. Bai Ze really wouldn't dare to take any dirty tricks against Young Master Mingfeng."

Upon hearing this, Qu Jingxuan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

"Have you done the mental strength test?" he asked again.

The middle-aged man didn't have time to answer, but his hesitation had already provided the answer.

“Let’s do it. Bai Ze used the Fist Intent before, and his awakened ability should also be related to this. We must make sure that Ming Feng has not done anything to him.”

Qujing Xuandao.

Although this method of focusing the mind is not widely practiced, it should not be underestimated, as many have fallen victim to it throughout history.
