Chapter 9

Thump thump…

A group of men in black rushed up the stairs, all of them were under Mo Yunlong's command.

When they pushed open the door, they all froze in shock.

Everyone drew a sharp breath. The leader of Tranquil Sea, their big brother, was actually kneeling before a young man?

The young man was peeling a grape, its skin glistening and translucent.

"Brother Long, what happened?" one of them couldn't help but ask.

Mo Yunlong's body trembled slightly. Qin Xuan hadn't spoken, so how could he dare to say anything, let alone stand up?

"You don't need to kneel anymore, get up!"

Qin Xuan said calmly, slowly standing up from the chair.

Mo Yunlong felt as if he had been granted a reprieve. He stood up, expressing his gratitude, and bowed respectfully to Qin Xuan.

"What are you all standing there for? Quickly call... Mr. Qin!" Mo Yunlong roared, giving the group of men in black a cold glare.

"Mr. Qin!"

They didn't know what had happened, but since Mo Yunlong said it, they had to follow his lead.

A row of men in black bowed, and Qin Xuan remained calm and composed.

It was as if he could remain unperturbed even if Mount Tai were to collapse before him.

"Put away your usual arrogance, I don't need it!"

Qin Xuan said calmly, turning to leave the room. "Remember what you said, or else..."

His eyes turned cold, and he swung his hand backward.

In the shocked gazes of the crowd, the three-meter-wide rosewood table in the room cracked and collapsed to both sides.

The cut was as smooth as a mirror, scaring everyone to death.

When they looked again, they found that Qin Xuan had already disappeared.

"Mr. Qin, shall I see you back?" Mo Yunyi asked cautiously, his heart sincerely convinced.

Pinching a bullet between two fingers, Qin Xuan had made the stubborn Mo Yunlong willing to be his dog. This kind of authority was even more impressive than that of Old Mo.

"Sure!" Qin Xuan nodded, stepping into a BMW X6 and driving toward Moonlight Lake.

As the Green Emperor, Qin Xuan naturally understood the principle that evil must be met with greater evil. If he didn't deal harshly with a Tranquil Sea leader like Mo Yunlong, it might cause him trouble in the future.

If Mo Yunlong truly remained obstinate, Qin Xuan wouldn't hesitate to eliminate him.

At the Pearl of Tranquil Sea, Qin Xuan entered the villa, which had already been prepared for him.

"Go back to Old Mo." Qin Xuan said calmly to Mo Yunyi. "Tell him that in three days, I will deliver the complete cultivation technique, so he doesn't need to be anxious."

"Yes!" Mo Yunyi bowed his head, slowly stepping back before turning to leave.

Qin Xuan chose a room and began meditating and cultivating.

The spiritual energy on Moonlight Mountain was even more abundant than at Moonheart Lake, and the Pearl of Tranquil Sea was at the peak of Moonlight Mountain, making it one of the best places for cultivation in the entire Tranquil Sea.

"Setting up a spirit array here would make it a fine place for cultivation!"

Qin Xuan closed his eyes and cultivated the Eternal Green Technique. A faint green light enveloped him, slowly flowing around him.

That night, Qin Xuan woke up and called He Yun, telling her he wouldn't be coming back that day.

He Yun didn't object, as she seemed to be quite busy with work. However, Qin Xuan could hear He Yu's disdainful rebuke through the phone.

"Idler!"

Qin Xuan smiled, not taking it to heart.

He Yu was actually quite nice, but due to some prejudices, she acted more like a child.

After that, Qin Xuan immersed himself in cultivation.

This time, he cultivated for a long time. When he woke up from his cultivation, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

His inner spirit sea had solidified, and his progress was slight, but it was better than nothing.

"It seems I should find some heavenly treasures when I have the time. Otherwise, it will take a while to reach the middle stage of the Qi Condensation realm!"

Qin Xuan sighed, stepping out of the room. As soon as he walked out, his phone rang.

Mu Xuer?

He answered the call, and Mu Xuer's voice came from the other end.

"Qin Xuan, we'll be waiting for you at Juyun轩 at five o'clock this afternoon!" Mu Xuer's voice was gentle, with a hint of joy.

"Got it!" Qin Xuan replied calmly.

After hanging up, a cold glint flashed in Qin Xuan's eyes.

What a coincidence, it's actually at Juyun轩?

Qin Xuan remembered that in his previous life, the location wasn't Juyun轩 but a hotel.

At that birthday party, Mu Xuer publicly proposed a breakup in front of everyone, mocking Qin Xuan for being a toad lusting after a swan.

The cold ridicule and mocking laughter from everyone present almost drove him mad.

In the end, he left in humiliation, like a drowned dog, amidst everyone's laughter.

For the rest of his senior year, Qin Xuan lived in the ridicule of the entire school, a period he could only describe as hell.

The feeling of being pointed at and whispered about wherever he went was something only the person involved could truly understand.

Hurtful words cut deep into the heart!

Qin Xuan would never forget, and even now, thinking about it made his heart turn cold.

…

On the other end of the phone, Mu Xuer was in a clothing store, picking out an outfit for her birthday dinner.

"Xuer, did you call that guy?" Zhao Xiaoyu said with some disgust. "I really don't understand how that guy can have such a thick skin, chasing after you for two whole years without considering his own status."

"Xiaoyu!" Mu Xuer smiled helplessly.

"A penniless, background-less, and unattractive guy dares to pursue our Miss Mu. It's like a toad lusting after a swan," Zhao Xiaoyu said matter-of-factly. "If you ask me, Xuer, if you're going to find a boyfriend, he should at least have a few million in assets, like my Li Feng!"

Li Feng, Zhao Xiaoyu's boyfriend, came from a family that owned a five-star restaurant in Tranquil Water City, which was very famous. He was also quite handsome and very popular among the girls at school. Zhao Xiaoyu had put in a lot of effort to win him over.

"You're so lucky!" Mu Xuer shook her head. Her family ran a small company with assets worth a few million, but she appeared calm on the surface while being very proud inside.

Qin Xuan was just a bet she lost to Xiao Wu, and she had never taken him seriously.

"Of course!" Zhao Xiaoyu said proudly, raising her head.

A cold and quiet girl nearby smiled faintly but didn't speak.

She quietly observed Zhao Xiaoyu and Mu Xuer, like a pure white snow lotus, standing apart from the world.

Soon, Zhao Xiaoyu and Mu Xuer picked out their favorite dresses and tried them on, feeling very satisfied.

Zhao Xiaoyu had her eye on a French cer dress, costing about 8,000 yuan.

Mu Xuer, on the other hand, chose a white Chanel dress with delicate accessories, making her look like a princess.

After they picked out their dresses, everyone in the store couldn't help but focus their attention on them.

Although they were young, in the eyes of those around them, they were like two blossoming buds, and with their temperament and appearance, they outshone the mature women in the store.

They seemed very pleased with this effect and smiled brightly.

"Xiao Wu, aren't you going to pick one?" Mu Xuer suddenly turned and asked the girl who looked like a lotus.

"No need!" Xiao Wu said softly, closing the book in her hand.

"Let's go!"

The three of them left the clothing store and headed to Juyun轩.
