Gao Wu: I became the minor villain that the protagonist was about to destroy.

Chu Yu was shocked to hear that such a thing had actually happened; she had absolutely no idea.

"What?! There's such a thing? How come I didn't know about this?!"

At this moment, Chu Yuntian spoke up: "Lin Yue, don't be so hostile. Ye Ming's Black Dragon Society has close ties with our Chu family's Chu Group; we're practically in the same boat."

Seeing that Chu Yuntian had spoken, Lin Yue relaxed his guard a little.

Ye Ming smiled and said in a gentler tone, "You're still a bit too impulsive. Releasing killing intent without understanding the opponent's strength is easy to get into trouble."

He paused, then asked, "Were you a soldier before?"

Lin Yue shook his head: "No, I was taken up the mountain by my master when I was a child, and I have been cultivating on the mountain ever since. This time, my master asked me to come down the mountain to protect the daughter of an old friend, namely Miss Chu Yu."

Ye Ming seemed lost in thought. ("It's not the return of the King of Soldiers, it's the Taoist priest descending the mountain...")

He didn't ask any further questions, only saying, "It's alright, the misunderstanding is cleared up. I'll say it again, are you interested in joining the Black Dragon Society?"

Lin Yue still refused: "My mission is to protect Miss Chu Yu, and I have no plans to join any other organization for the time being."

Chu Yuntian chimed in from the side, "Brother, that's not very fair of you. You're poaching my people right in front of me?"

Ye Ming rolled her eyes at him: "You talk as if you've never done it."

"Hehe, hahaha..."

Shortly after, the vehicle arrived at the Black Dragon Society headquarters. Ye Ming and Baki got out of the car to say goodbye, while Chu Yuntian and his group continued on their way.

As they entered the headquarters lobby, Ye Ming casually asked Baki, "What do you think of Lin Yue?"

Baki's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was calm: "We haven't fought before, but his strength is decent."

"Yes, I'll try to get to know him more often in the future."

Although Baki didn't quite understand the chairman's intentions, he still nodded in agreement: "Yes."

On the way back, with no one else around, Chu Yuntian looked at Lin Yue with a serious expression.

"Lin Yue, don't be so impulsive in the future. Ye Ming is my brother who would risk his life for me, and I trust him completely."

Lin Yue bowed his head and replied, "Understood, Mr. Chu."

Chu Yu also curled her lip and said, "I really don't know if you're really stupid or pretending to be stupid. You've missed a good opportunity."

"That's the Black Dragon Society, you know. So many people want to get in but can't."

Lin Yue was somewhat puzzled: "But judging from the name, isn't the Black Dragon Society an underground organization?"

Chu Yu rolled her eyes at him: "Superficial! The Black Dragon Society is indeed an underground force, but Ye Ming only spent a year unifying the entire underground world of Luoxia City, and strictly prohibited all drug trafficking."

Lin Yue was even more shocked by the young man's actions; what he had done was completely unlike anything a young person could do.

Just as Chu Yu was about to continue, Chu Yuntian interrupted her, "Xiao Yu, what are your plans for the future?"

"Is that even a question? Of course we're going to the secret realm!"

"So you've already decided on your teammates?"

"Of course, it's a team of five: me, Lin Yue, Baki, and Xiao Mo. Xiao Mo also said she'll bring one more person along."

Chu Yuntian raised an eyebrow: "Baki? You'd better not expect that kid to join your team. He's not weak, he'll definitely go with Ye Ming, so don't count on it."

"Hey, how could you do this? That means I'm missing one person!"

Immediately, Chu Yu took out her phone and told her best friend about this, asking her to see if she could find another person to team up with.

At this moment, a cool-looking young woman from the Black Dragon Society headquarters arrived at the location.

The girl looked up and glanced at the Black Dragon Society.

"So this is the Black Dragon Society, a force that never existed in my previous life. Will you be the one to change the future?"

The person who arrived was Leng Ruoxue. She also had another identity: a reborn person. She was reborn from ten years in the future, but she died in an accident when the disaster occurred.

Just as Leng Ruoxue was about to enter, she was stopped by the guards at the entrance.

"Young lady, this is not a place for you. Leave immediately!" The guards, seeing that Leng Ruoxue was wearing a school uniform, tried to drive her away.

"I need to see your president."

The two guards looked at Leng Ruoxue as if she were a fool.

"Judging from your appearance, you probably haven't graduated from high school yet. Go somewhere cool and stay there."

Upon seeing this, Leng Ruoxue walked straight inside, and the guard immediately drew his long sword and placed it across the doorway.

"Black Dragon Society restricted area, strangers are not allowed to enter!"

At that moment, a chilling coldness emanated from Leng Ruoxue's body. She had to see that man today.

The chill came and went quickly; without the support of spiritual energy, even if one awakened ice-related properties, it could only last for a few seconds.

As the guards saw that the other party was about to make a move and tried to forcibly drive him away, a sound of footsteps rang out: "Stop."

Upon seeing that the person who had arrived was Lie, the guards quickly withdrew their hands and respectfully bowed.

Lie Shen looked at Leng Ruoxue with a solemn expression. Leng Ruoxue immediately felt as if she were being stared at by a powerful demon and dared not make the slightest move.

"What brings you to the chairman?"

Leng Ruoxue gritted her teeth and said, "I want your president to take responsibility for me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the doorway fell silent instantly; was this something they could hear?

Lie also looked astonished.

("My own president, a beautiful girl, oh... no... it can't be... it doesn't seem like it... impossible.")

Although Lie was suspicious, he wasn't sure if it was true, so he invited Leng Ruoxue inside.

"Please wait here for a moment, I'll go find our president."

After Leng Ruoxue and the others left, her originally aloof face instantly turned red with embarrassment.

("Leng Ruoxue, what did you say! I'm so embarrassed! I'm so embarrassed!!")

At this moment, Lie quickly arrived at the door of Ye Ming's room on the top floor.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"Enter."

"Oh, it's Lie. What's up?"

"This...emmmm..." Lie didn't know how to start the conversation for a moment. This was the first time he had come to report on his president's romantic escapades.

"President, a young woman has barged in and is saying... she wants you to take responsibility for him."

"Huh? Huh—!!"

Old Guo's glasses slipped off as he stared at Ye Ming in shock.

"The...the president...has grown up!"

Ye Ming was momentarily stunned: "Hey! Lie, I've always treated you well, you can't slander me like this, you know? This is slander!! I've never even held a girl's hand!! You can't do this!!"

Lie broke out in a cold sweat.

"But President, the person is downstairs, why don't you go see him?"
