I manage female characters in all the heavens.

The fire at Plum Manor ruins has been extinguished; it's time to go see if the adorable Star-Absorbing Technique is still there.

If it is also destroyed in the explosion, then the only hope is to return to the world of Peerless Twins, find the randomly appearing Liu happy to obtain the Absorption Technique, or the Six Ren Divine Dice whose existence is unknown, and then embark on the path of devouring.

When she arrived at the ruins of Meizhuang and saw the scene, her eyelids twitched.

There were no fewer than a thousand people moving in and out of the ruins of Meizhuang, climbing up and down, searching everywhere, as lively as a market.

Two constables stopped her, saying that the place had been sealed off by the government and that if she wanted to go in to search for treasure, she had to pay 500 coins to buy a treasure hunting token. Each token allowed her to search for treasure for one hour, and if she didn't renew it after it expired, she would be kicked out.

Wow, the local government really knows how to make money. They can seize such business opportunities and make money in a timely manner. It's admirable.

Yue Lingshan had no change, so she paid 100 taels of silver directly to recharge 200 hours.

This large sum of money directly upgraded her to a diamond member, bestowing upon her countless honors and making her dazzling and awe-inspiring. She stepped into the treasure land amidst the respectful gazes of the officials who bowed and scraped.

Our esteemed VIP deserves our utmost respect and veneration.

They were clearly too optimistic. They certainly couldn't accept being taken advantage of like Yue Lingshan. Once she returned from her treasure hunt, she could easily reclaim her wealth with a flick of her finger, without giving the government any money.

The two might even get into a fight over a large sum of money that has disappeared, each suspecting the other of hiding it, which could lead to a fight and them both dying.

Not long after, Yue Lingshan dug out the collapsed dungeon, and upon seeing the situation inside, she sighed.

Not to mention the stone bed engraved with the Star Absorbing Technique, the entire dungeon has become a meteorite crater. All traces of human intervention have disappeared, leaving only scars of pure power, telling the story of the horror of that explosion.

There is absolutely no possibility of a corpse.

However, it seems the explosion originated from the dungeon.

……

The fact that they were able to break in and plant explosives here shows that Huang Zhonggong and the others are no longer a problem. If their only goal was to kill Ren Woxing, there would be no need to make such a big fuss.

What exactly happened that required such a thorough approach?

Are they worried that the damage won't be enough and that Ren Woxing will be resurrected?

Too cautious.

With the Star Absorbing Skill gone, Yue Lingshan's dream of a dramatic increase in power was temporarily thwarted, leaving her somewhat disappointed.

Upon reaching the checkpoint, the two officers who had been there earlier, seeing the VIP looking so dejected, actually came over to comfort him.

"Treasure hunting is a long-term project, and it depends on fate. It's unrealistic to expect results in such a short time, but you can always grasp the joy in life. Smile, girl, it's no big deal."

"Yes, yes, I find the young lady to be exceptionally beautiful and charming, and her family background is also quite impressive. She is truly an outstanding person. As long as she perseveres and remains steadfast in her determination, she will surely succeed. There is no need to worry about temporary gains or losses."

Yue Lingshan was somewhat moved. She had thought these two were greedy and wicked, but she hadn't expected them to have this side to them. She had misunderstood them.

"So, young lady, how about you... oh right, top up your account, top up even more, and spend a few dozen days searching for treasure? You're sure to find something!"

"If you recharge 300 taels, we can give you a 5% discount!"

"Yue Lingshan" walked past them expressionlessly and headed into the distance.

You might as well just kill each other.

Of course, she had already secretly and successfully refunded the 100 taels she had previously topped up.

I had just returned to Qingyun Tower when another piece of bad news came.

Dongfang Bubai has been kidnapped by bad guys!

And the bad guys even ate her food!

Her horse was also taken away by bad guys!

This is outrageous!

Chapter 85 The Invincible Method

Outside Hangzhou, several people were pulling a horse-drawn carriage at high speed.

The man at the head was dressed in black, with a long sword at his waist, and riding a tall, golden horse, stroking its mane with great affection.

Although the horse showed obvious resistance to his caresses, it was unable to resist under the man's superior martial arts skills.

"Hehe, what a fine horse. You could never ride such a fine horse even if you worked hard in the church your whole life. It seems you have to sell out your master to gain such wealth and honor."

If we don't come to catch Dongfang Bubai today, we won't encounter this horse, and naturally we won't be able to ride it. So the horse has betrayed its master for personal gain.

The cause and effect are clear and the logic is rigorous.

The man chuckled, making no attempt to suppress his voice, seemingly not ashamed of it, but rather feeling honored.

This is normal, because he is also a member of the Demonic Sect, a branch leader under Tong Baixiong of the Wind and Thunder Hall, named Han Jingde.

As the leader of the incense hall, he had reached almost the pinnacle of the Demonic Sect's rank. Above him were only the Ten Elders, the Four Hall Masters, the Left and Right Envoys, and the Sect Leader.

People who can reach this level in the Demonic Cult are generally not very moral, and they all have their own understanding of the Demonic Cult's corporate culture, enough to write a book on it.

Selling out one's master for personal gain is not considered bad in the cult; on the contrary, it should be highly praised and rewarded for his profound understanding and practice of the corporate culture.

His subordinates thought so too, and immediately began to flatter him, trying to improve their standing in his eyes so that they could easily betray him later.

Inside the carriage, Dongfang Bubai, dressed in bright red, mocked himself: "I thought Fenglei Hall was a place I could absolutely control, but I never expected there would still be such rebellious people. I was truly blind."

The corporate culture of the Demonic Cult is, of course, ruthless and heartless, but as its leader, she has always advocated loyalty.

However, it is clear that her advocacy was useless. We, the evil cultists, will never be loyal to you!

Fenglei Hall is a branch controlled by Tong Baixiong. They have always been loyal to Dongfang Bubai, and each of their underlings has undergone rigorous screening to ensure their loyalty to Dongfang Bubai.

For more than a decade, she had also frequently bestowed various rewards upon Fenglei Hall to solidify this loyalty, believing there would be no problem.

As it turned out, a high-ranking and powerful leader of the Fenglei Hall chose to betray her without hesitation at this critical moment, which was indeed somewhat unexpected.

She had thought it would be Shangguan Yun's White Tiger Hall, or at the very least, one of the two relatively low-profile Azure Dragon Hall and Vermilion Bird Hall, which would help whoever became the leader. She never expected it to be the Wind and Thunder Hall.

However, considering that everyone is a member of the Demonic Sect, it becomes understandable.

This is how we, the villains of the Demonic Cult, must be!

Since being injured a few days ago, Dongfang Bubai has contacted Fenglei Hall using a secret code, asking them to send people to protect him.

She had considered whether this contact might lead to a traitor, but since "Yue Lingshan" was present, nothing bad would happen, so she took the opportunity to test the waters.

There was no movement for several days. I thought that the previous bombing had wiped out the entire organizational structure of the cult in Hangzhou, and that I could no longer contact anyone.

Unexpectedly, not long after Yue Lingshan left Qingyun Tower today, Han Jingde arrived with his men.

At first, he was incredulous when he saw Dongfang Bubai's female appearance. After various tests, he confirmed that this was the number one leader in the world. He immediately revealed his true identity and directly subdued the helpless Dongfang Bubai.

Then he heard that Dongfang Bubai's maid had ordered a large table of fine wine and food to enjoy, and he sat down without saying a word to show off.

When he was about to leave after a satisfying meal, he saw a magnificent, golden Akhal-Teke horse in the stable. Without asking whose it was, he killed the two grooms who tried to stop him and rode off.

Although the horse resisted him and kept trying to throw him off, he didn't care and liked it even more.

If it were your own horse, of course it would be best if it were docile. But this is someone else's horse. If it is led in without training, it will be very obedient, and you will not get the thrill of conquering it.

For NTR (Network Response Technology), the process is more important than the result, and this is exactly what's happening now.

I love the stubborn expression on your face when you look down on me but have no choice but to submit to me, yet you never admit defeat.

"Since you're selling yourself for personal gain, there must be a buyer. Now that you have some free time, why don't you tell me who you're going to sell me to?"

Han Jingde was still outwitting the horse when Dongfang Bubai's calm voice came from inside the carriage.

He paused for a moment, then sneered, "Would I tell you? Great Master, you don't still think you're the invincible Grand Master who can still boss people around, do you?"

"Now that you are a prisoner, you'd better watch your words. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind using this precious sword that you personally bestowed upon me to slash your unexpectedly beautiful face."

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a fair and exquisite face, a masterpiece of craftsmanship! You take such good care of it, you must cherish it very much, right? You certainly wouldn't want to see it suffer any damage, would you?"

Dongfang Bubai narrowed his eyes, finding it laughable.

Han Jingde must have lost his mind, actually thinking that a domineering figure like her, who is invincible and rises in the east, would care about looks.

The so-called maintenance is utter nonsense. She simply mastered the Sunflower Manual to its peak, reaching a state of divine transformation, reversing her innate constitution and eliminating all acquired impurities, returning to her purest state.

She doesn't need any skincare; she's naturally beautiful!

"Why don't you take your sword and try it now, see if you can threaten me?" Dongfang Bubai was extremely strong. Her physical weakness was one thing, but her spirit was unyielding!

At the same time, a needle quietly appeared in her hand, held back but not yet drawn.

Given her current severe injuries, she should theoretically not use martial arts, otherwise there is a possibility that her injuries will flare up and she will die instantly.

But this only depends on whether she is willing, not whether she has the ability.

When the time comes, she will risk her life to unleash a devastating attack and show the enemy what true invincibility is.

No one can defeat me or kill me; I will die before I am defeated, and I will never be defeated.

Invincible!

Han Jingde hesitated for a moment, but still didn't actually take the sword up to test it.

Despite betraying his master for personal gain, Dongfang Bubai's invincible prestige from the past decade or so remains undiminished.

Even if it seems that there is no way to resist now, the fear that has been ingrained in one's heart for more than a decade is difficult to dissipate in a short time.

Moreover, since his capture, Dongfang Bubai has not shown any signs of breaking down, losing his temper, or losing his composure. On the contrary, he remains calm and composed, and his domineering aura is still intact. This makes it hard not to think about the implications.

Han Jingde was suddenly startled. Had he fallen into a trap?

Dongfang Bubai was actually not the problem; the real intention was to use him to find the mastermind behind the scenes, and then use his incredible martial prowess to eliminate them together.

Even the strongest person, a hero who disregards life and death, should show some signs of abnormality at such a time, but Dongfang Bubai was too composed, as if everything was still under control.

This was quite a shock; it startled him so much that he was thrown off the horse's back before he could react.

He adjusted his posture in time and landed steadily. Watching the BMW, now free, speed away at breakneck speed, his lips twitched.

My horse...

There's no way to catch up now; we can only suffer a painful loss. Today's NTR has suffered a crushing defeat.

At the same moment Han Jingde fell from his horse, his well-trained men reined in their horses and slowed them down, stopping them in front of him in a dramatic fashion, thus avoiding a fatal accident.

He glanced one last time at the BMW that had sped away, then turned back to look at the carriage with resentment.

It's all your fault, Dongfang Bubai!

Since that's the case, let's eliminate any potential problems while we're at it!
