I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

Tulip Hotel.

"What kind of mess have you made?!"

"If we had just killed Lin Yuan, would all this have happened?"

Yu Jinghong came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bathrobe, barefoot, with most of her long, shapely, and straight legs exposed.

"You make it sound so easy!" Qin Ge lay on the sofa, playing with the Xuan Yuan Black Jade he had just acquired. While Yu Jinghong was taking a bath, he was pondering whether the spiritual energy of this Xuan Yuan Black Jade was enough for him to break through to the eighth level of the Qi Refining stage.

Let's be on the safe side, with double protection.

"You told me yourself that the two assassins who appeared in Donghai were assassins from the Moyi Hall, but they also admitted that they were sent by Han Xiuyun."

"Is killing Lin Yuan the end of the matter?"

"The matter of Han Xiuyun is still unresolved, and the fact that someone was able to rescue Lin Yuan from the Lin family proves what?"

"And there's Qiao Song, the head of the Jinling Shadow Martial Arts Hall. Lu Qi and Lin Yuan are involved. Whether the Lu family was involved, and what role Qiao Song played, are all unclear."

"I can't possibly kill them all, can I?"

He gently pulled Yu Jinghong's hand, and Yu Jinghong's entire weight pressed down on him, causing her bathrobe to slip down most of the way, revealing her alluring figure.

"We can't kill the people from Shadow Martial Hall!" Yu Jinghong subconsciously tried to pull her bathrobe up, but stopped halfway through.

Oh well, I'll get stripped of my clothes by this bastard sooner or later anyway.

"You know how to say that!" Qin Ge effortlessly climbed to the top with one hand, while still holding the Xuan Yuan Mo Yu in his palm with the other. "I do regret not joining your Shadow Martial Hall."

"If I'd known joining the Shadow Martial Arts Hall meant you could kill people at will, I would have joined!"

"Besides, if I were a member of the Shadow Martial Hall, the Ink Robe Hall would probably have some reservations, right?"

"You're overthinking it. Even murder has its limits!" Yu Jinghong hooked her arm around Qin Ge's neck. "But it's not too late for you to join now!"

"You think you can use the Shadow Martial Hall to intimidate the Ink Robe Hall and make them wary? Your wishful thinking is about to fail!"

"As long as the money is right, there's no one they won't dare to kill!"

"The Shadow Martial Hall can't just kill people indiscriminately. I reported to the Jinling Shadow Martial Hall when I arrived in Jinling, okay?"

"I also need to report what just happened truthfully. The Shadow Martial Arts Hall will send someone to investigate. It seems simple to you if there are no problems, but if there are, it will be a big problem!"

"If the investigation reveals discrepancies between what I reported and what I did, and it's confirmed that I lied, that's a very serious crime!"

"At best, their cultivation will be crippled and they will be expelled from the Shadow Martial Hall; at worst, they will be executed or spend the rest of their lives in prison. Even I am no exception!"

"Enjoying privileges comes with stricter constraints; otherwise, chaos would have ensued long ago, and the Shadow Martial Arts Hall wouldn't even exist."

She glanced at Qin Ge's left hand with displeasure. "What are you doing holding that broken rock?"

"A broken rock?" Qin Ge waved the Xuan Yuan Black Jade in front of Yu Jinghong. "This thing is worth a hundred million!"

"Whether we can break through or not depends entirely on this!"

"Really? Are you just kidding me?" Yu Jinghong wrapped her long, fair legs around Qin Ge's waist, her breath sweet as orchids. "Don't always treat me like a fool. I didn't say I wouldn't give it to you..."

Having been fooled so many times, she didn't believe Qin Ge really had any way to definitely break through.

Relying on a single rock would be even more outrageous!

"So alluring, you've definitely improved!"

"All you do is try to fool me. If you can't break through, I'll eat you alive!"

"If you want to freeload, just say so. Why beat around the bush?"

"..."

The two were reunited after a short separation, and their relationship was like a collision of planets. Meanwhile, Lu Qi was suffering.

After Yu Jinghong killed those people, Qin Ge didn't give Lu Qi any room to discuss it and left with Yu Jinghong.

When Qin Ge was around, Lu Qi felt it was barely acceptable, but when he was all alone, looking at the corpses all over the ground, he felt a chill run down his spine.

Who knows if there are any survivors, or if a few more people will suddenly appear from somewhere!

He didn't dare linger at the scene, so he randomly got into a police car and fled.

On the way, he called his maternal grandfather, Qiao Song, to explain the situation and ask him to handle the follow-up matters.

When Qin Ge and Yu Jinghong arrived at the Tulip Hotel, Lu Qi also returned to the Lu family home. However, as soon as he entered the door, his mother, Qiao Peishan, chased him around with a feather duster.

"You spendthrift! You really dare to spend money like this?"

"You're throwing around a hundred million like that! Even the Lu family, with all their wealth, can't afford to waste it like that!"

Qiao Peishan hit and cursed, causing chaos.

"Mom, I didn't spend it, Qin Ge did!"

Before long, the mother and son were panting heavily.

"Alright!" Lu Xiuyuan looked at the scene of motherly love and filial piety with great helplessness.

"Tell me what happened, what did you film that cost so much money?"

Upon hearing that his son said it was Qin Ge who spent the money, he immediately became interested, and his expression softened considerably.

I was just wondering why Qin Ge didn't come back with me.

"I bought a rock!" Lu Qi exhaled a breath of stale air and rubbed his buttocks, which had been slapped a few times.

"Stone?!"

Lu Xiuyuan and his wife spoke almost simultaneously, then looked at each other in bewilderment.

"It's just a stone!" Lu Qi then recounted the events of the auction.

The events that followed the auction were also recounted.

"You're not making up a story to fool us, are you?"

"Is someone really that bold as to impersonate police officers?"

Lu Xiuyuan's first reaction was disbelief. This was too absurd, and he knew his son's character all too well!

"What do you mean by 'real' or 'fake'? Don't you even know how to care about your son?"

Qiao Peishan tossed the feather duster aside and quickly stepped forward, turning around to check if her son was injured. She only breathed a sigh of relief after checking him two or three times.

"Of course it's true! Why would I lie to you!" Lu Qi was furious that even something like this was being doubted. "I even drove back in one of those fake police cars! My own car is still in the auction parking lot!"

"I called my grandfather on the way back."

Lu Xiuyuan and Qiao Peishan both fell silent.

"You mean, Qin Ge is actively trying to help you get revenge?" Lu Xiuyuan pondered for a long time before speaking.

"Tell me again about the circumstances of Qin Ge saving you that day. Think carefully to see if you've missed anything!"

"This is really too strange. You and Qin Ge don't have a deep relationship. You only met once in Donghai, and it wasn't a very friendly meeting."

"Why would he risk his life to save you, and be so eager to help you get revenge on the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce?"

"I've had people investigating for the past two days, but we still haven't been able to confirm that the Dongyang men who kidnapped you are from the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce. What makes Qin Ge so sure?"

"Didn't I already say that?" Lu Qi pursed his lips. "Qin Ge thinks I'm a handsome and talented man, a pillar of the nation. I guess it's a case of heroes recognizing each other!"

"You utterly worthless 'pillar of society'!" Lu Xiuyuan's anger was barely contained. "Don't you even look in the mirror? You believe everything people say?"

"Qin Ge is no simple character!"

"Putting everything else aside, just look at what happened at your auction. How did someone from Donghai know that Wu Nanzhi, the president of the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce, would attend that auction?"

"How could he be so sure that Wu Nanzhi would bid against him at any cost for that samurai sword?"

"What about that expert woman you mentioned who suddenly appeared? Haven't you thought about these things carefully?"
