In this way, Lu Heng can gain a firm foothold in the land under the sun and calmly resolve the crisis of imbalance between yin and yang.

I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but the concept of time in this world is similar to that in Lu Heng’s hometown, with 24 hours in a day.

This means that Lu Heng needs to find a living girl within 24 hours and replenish his Yin energy by connecting to them like connecting to a wireless network.

The effect is best within 6 meters, and the effect is weaker between 6 and 24 meters;

If the distance exceeds 24 meters, it will become ineffective.

However, the memories of the high elves were of great help.

It was from his memory that Lu Heng discovered that William's stepmother had just acquired 10 stunning maids and was about to auction their virginity.

Isn't this a good way to reconcile them?

The high elves also let Lu Heng know another important piece of news:

William's stepmother gave the high elf a commission and wanted him to assassinate William in the crypt.

As for why the 23-year-old lady of the lord wanted to kill her stepson, it's actually not that difficult to guess.

She herself has a 6-year-old son, and unless something unexpected happens to William, it will be difficult for her son to take the throne.

But the opportunity to murder the first heir to a territory is rare.

The high elves secretly helped the lord's wife do dirty work for three years before they finally received the order to take action against William.

However, the high elves also have their own interests to consider.

He planned to cheat the lord's wife of her money, earn some more commission from William, and then run away alone.

As for how William and his stepmother loved and hated each other, he didn't care.

I can only say that this plot is really difficult to sustain.

However, this also shows that the empire itself is not a monolithic entity. Every noble or adventurer tends to look at the problem from his own perspective.

For Lu Heng, since he wanted to use William's identity, he had to inherit William's enemies as well.

This dangerous stepmother will definitely be the target of his next counterattack.

As for the specific method of dealing with her, Lu Heng planned to observe the situation first before making a decision.

Well, watch it now.

Lu Heng can freely choose the landing point before teleporting, and in the process of choosing the landing point, he can use the landing point vision to scout the surrounding situation.

Compared to opening a portal, the process of choosing a landing point is much easier and will not cause too much psychic energy burden.

So Lu Heng raised his landing point vision to mid-air, just like the perspective of the real-time strategy games he played in his hometown, overlooking the vast land.

He saw that outside the cave where he was, the midday sun was gently caressing the lush forest.

The gentle stream flows slowly downwards, nourishing the grass at the foot of the mountain.

This vast expanse of wilderness is exactly the fiefdom of William's father - the Mountain Territory.

Everything here is so natural, there is almost no agricultural pollution, only pure green.

It was not until several kilometers away near the lord's mansion that there were finally more people and industries.

Perhaps it was because of his high experience level, Lu Heng had almost mastered the use of the landing point vision as soon as he used it for reconnaissance.

He let his eyes quickly pass over the mountains and headed straight for the lord's mansion, looking for the figure of the lord's wife.

She wasn't in the chamber... or in the bathroom... but in bed.

Lu Heng then opened a hidden window in the lord's wife's room.

The lady of the lord was completely unaware of Lu Heng's gaze. She was lying on the bed unscrupulously, plotting loudly:

"Ahaha...ah, I've done it the way you said!"

"Wait for the elf to come back and claim the bounty, then kill him. No one will know about it then!"

The middle-aged man who was involved in the conspiracy behind the lord's wife was the lord's younger brother, William's uncle.

He had a physique as big as an ox, and he was full of energy when he was plotting:

"Fuck! You! Vicious! Woman! Who! Killed! My! Step-son! You! Must! Say! That! It! Was! Me! Who! Taught! You!"

Seeing how skillfully they cooperated, Lu Heng was sure that this was not the first time they had conspired.

As for the lord himself, he is currently on the front lines of the war.

The Overlord's forces suffered heavy losses as the Empire encountered "little difficulty" in its attack on some "beastmen" remnants.

This forced him to stay at the front line to regroup his troops, giving the lord's wife an opportunity to plot.

She thought her plan was accomplished, and raised her head excitedly and plotted:

"Ah, ah...ah ha, me too, ah! For...our child! Aha ha-ah ah!"

But the uncle was obviously full of doubts about the lady's words. He straightened his back and plotted hard while accelerating:

"Fuck! You! Bitch! You! Didn't even discuss with me when you were looking for someone? And you failed and got discovered by others?"

3. Maids? I want 10!

Amid the intense plotting, the lady of the lord fell into an intellectually suppressed state of repeated “Ahhhhh!”

My uncle was completely the opposite. As the conspiracy came to an end, a flood of reason instantly filled his mind!

The uncle understood the interests involved in an instant and slapped him.

"I told you how to harm someone, but I didn't ask you to actually harm someone!"

Before the lord's wife could react, there was another loud "pop" sound.

This time it was a slap in the face!

Facing the bewildered lady, the uncle only left one sentence:

"If you dare to frame me in front of my brother, I will let you know whether my brother believes me or you, a bitch!"

After saying that, the uncle quickly packed up his clothes and strode out of the lord's wife's bedroom...

Lu Heng then looked away, and after watching his uncle flee in the carriage, he quietly teleported to an empty corner of the lord's mansion.

Then, under the watchful eyes of servants of all sizes, he leisurely walked to the courtyard.

Not long after, the news of her stepson's safe return reached the ears of the lord's wife.

This made her rage like a sow!

Why is my eyeliner telling me now?

Have they betrayed me?

Why isn’t that guy dead yet? Was that elf killed?

In addition to being shocked, the lord's wife felt deeply frightened.

How did that stupid stepson suddenly become such a tough opponent?

However, the lord's wife could not just hide from Lu Heng like this, as that would only increase her suspicion.

At this moment, she was still thinking, fortunately there was no evidence to prove that I asked that loser to kill him, I might still have a chance...

So Lu Heng didn't have to wait too long before he saw the lord's wife, with a ruddy complexion, coming to him with her painful body supported by her maid.

"My child, I'm so glad you came back safely..."

To outsiders, she really looks like a young mother who cares about her son.

Watching the performance of the Lord's wife, Lu Heng just teased calmly:

"Did you have a good time with your uncle? How about I tell Dad and give him a big surprise?"

The lady's face was almost distorted, but she still tried to play dumb and said:

"What are you thinking, kid? Your uncle and I are family. What's so strange about discussing countermeasures together?"

Seeing the lord's wife calling him "child" all the time, Lu Heng still played it down.

"It's okay. I can tell my father about you and my uncle and let him guess for himself."

We are all smart people, and the lord's wife also knows that her affairs cannot withstand investigation.

Whenever the lord asked his servants to help him understand the situation, there would always be someone to translate for him what a surprise was.

The lady of the lord might be able to bribe some of the servants, but it would not be so easy to bribe all the servants in the lord's mansion.

In fact, among the aristocratic circles of the empire, appreciating each other's spouses...may not be so unacceptable.

But the lady of the lord also knew very well that once the issue of the bloodline of the heir was involved, it would easily ruin her son's future.

With her son gone, her future as the wife of a lord would only become bleaker.

Therefore, the lord's wife must show enough sincerity to convince Lu Heng that she has no ambition to murder the heir.

Otherwise, Lu Heng would definitely continue to study her son's bloodline.

The lady of the lord had no choice but to look around.

The servants on the scene were not stupid either, and they all went away to do their own things.

Then the lady of the lord lowered her voice.

"What do you want? Do you want to kill me?"

Lu Heng also got to the point:

"The good killer you recommended almost took my life. This was a huge blow to my spirit!"

"In order to compensate for my spiritual loss, you must pay me 7 Imperial Coins within 10 days."

The purchasing power of these 10 imperial coins is not low. They can buy 10000 serfs a pair of cheap cloth shoes that can be worn for 10 years.

The lady of the lord pretended to be surprised and said:

"What are you talking about! Our entire territory doesn't earn that much, how can you ask me to get it for you?"

Regarding the latter sentence, the lady of the lord was indeed selectively telling the truth.

After all, the lord had only had the fiefdom for more than two months, and he had always been gentle to his subjects, so he really hadn't squeezed much money out of them.

But Lu Heng obviously didn't intend to let her off like this:

"Hasn't your family's sex industry always been thriving? How come you can't afford 10 Imperial Coins?"

There is not much mutual love in the world of aristocrats. The fact that she was able to marry the lord as his wife was actually because the family behind her wanted to arrange a marriage.

The lady of the lord did not want to easily harm the interests of her family. She looked very embarrassed, as if she was the victim:

"But I am already a member of your family, how can I..."

Lu Heng smiled and said:

"That's your business. But I advise you to think positively. My father has always been kind-hearted. Even if he really finds out something, he will definitely not take it out on your child."

"After all, your son is also the blood of our Burios family. Even if father doesn't have time to find him a stepmother, I will take good care of him..."

Before Lu Heng could finish, the lady of the lord was already furious:

"You...you devil!"

Lu Heng was still so gentle:

"How can I be a monster? I am just a traumatized wretch negotiating business with you."

"How about my father talk to you instead?"

Looking at her stepson who was becoming more and more unfamiliar, inexplicable fear kept rising in the heart of the lord's wife.

No, no, this kid is beyond vicious.

I can’t let him stand in my son’s way any longer!

Mom, I have to strike hard!

But I can't reveal my cards now. I have to pretend to agree to his conditions first and then find an opportunity to kill him later.

After thinking this through, the lord's wife finally seemed to soften.
