Chapter 529: Chapter 532 Late Night Visitor_1

"Absolutely not!" Gu Xiaorou declared decisively.

However, she did indeed have a little scheme in mind.

After her withdrawal, the only one who could disrupt the relationship between Yang Gang and Su Xiaoxi was Yang Fei.

For the sake of her good friend Su Xiaoxi’s happiness, Gu Xiaorou certainly hoped that Yang Fei could start dating other men.

"Although I’ve envied those loving couples, the moment I think about having a boyfriend, I always feel a bit lost." Yang Fei also looked up to the ceiling, speaking lightly.

"Still, a woman always needs to fall in love, get married, and have children."

Yang Fei paused for a moment, and then laughed, "I’ll seriously consider it."

Room three.

Zhang Miao came out of the shower, saw Su Xiaoxi staring blankly at a box of cigarettes on the table, and asked, "Little Xi, are you still upset about Gangzi and Xiaorou kissing?"

"Uh, no, it’s just that I..."

"It was a goodbye kiss." Zhang Miao responded, wiping her damp hair with a towel.

Su Xiaoxi was startled: "A goodbye kiss?"

"That’s right, that little minx Xiaorou has backed out." Zhang Miao stated flatly.

"Why?"

Zhang Miao didn’t speak.

Su Xiaoxi seemed to understand, a self-deprecating smile emerged: "Is it because of the pity I received in the Xiao family?"

Zhang Miao glanced at Su Xiaoxi, and uttered, "It’s not about pity. Xiaorou just lost her nerve and cowardly backed out."

Zhang Miao paused slightly, then laughed and said, "Moreover, Miao Miao, don’t think that now that Xiaorou is out, you can be at ease. You still have a bunch of rival tigresses glaring at you."

"I didn’t think that way! I..I don’t care. There are so many good men in the world, why does this lady have to marry Yang Gang?"

"Oh, aren’t we being haughty?"

"Of course not!"

Just then, a figure flashed past the window.

Su Xiaoxi and Zhang Miao both felt a chill in their eyes.

"Hmm, I didn’t expect them to come this early." Su Xiaoxi stated coolly.

"They really are eager." Zhang Miao also chimed in.

"Miao Miao, you stay in the room, I can go out by myself." Said Su Xiaoxi.

Zhang Miao shook his head: "It’s better to be cautious, I’ll come with you. Your curse ability has great power in a one-on-one situation. But if there are more people on the other side, it will be trouble."

After thinking for a moment, Su Xiaoxi nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, the two women left the villa together, heading into a nearby dense forest.

"Come out." Su Xiaoxi said lightly.

At this moment, there was some rustling, then about four or five figures emerged from the woods. They were all dressed in black with their faces covered.

"Miss, it appears that you already know who we are. So, I’ll get straight to the point." One of the men in black masks paused, then continued, "We hope that you can join us in seizing Crow Feather Island. The main line of the Xiao family has been gradually declining since Xiao Yuanshan succeeded as Family Head. Those two, Mr. and Mrs. Xiao Yuanshan, neglect their duties and cling to superstitions, causing enormous losses for the entire Xiao family. For instance, about five years ago, Xiao Yuanshan foolishly trusted some nonsensical words of an old Daoist. He disregarded the opposition of other clans and spent nearly 50 billion US dollars to extract seabed oil in a certain area in the West Pacific Ocean. As a result, no oil was encountered, causing a tremendous loss to the Xiao family. Because of this, the Xiao family is still a laughingstock. Under Xiao Yuanshan’s management, the reputation of the Xiao family, built over three centuries, is on the brink of ruin."

The man in black paused, then continued, "Miss, need I mention how the main Xiao family has treated you? Mr. and Mrs. Xiao Yuanshan not only abandoned their own daughter but even arranged for an assassin to eradicate potential future threats. It’s simply inhumane! Miss, let me be frank with you. The Elder Council has already tacitly approved our actions. They too have completely lost hope in Mr. and Mrs. Xiao Yuanshan."

"Hmm, so what is it you want me to do?" Su Xiaoxi inquired lightly.

"Miss, do you know why the main Xiao family has been declining for a long time, and why, despite various branches seething with restlessness, no one has dared to move against the main family?" the man in black asked.

"Was it hindered by the Elder Council?"

The man in black shook his head, "The Elder Council is not convenient to intervene in this matter, but they can’t wait for the branches to act against the main family."

"Then why?" Su Xiaoxi asked.

The man in black took a deep breath, then solemnly said, "Because of Li Qing."

"Li Qing? Are you referring to the long-standing Guardian God of Crow Feather Island, the so-called Immortal Warrior Li Qing?" Zhang Miao suddenly asked. She seemed to have heard of Li Qing.

The man in black glanced at Zhang Miao and quietly said, "Yes. But Li Qing is not just a legendary figure. He truly exists and is still alive to this day."

Hiss~

Su Xiaoxi drew a cold breath: "The ’Immortal Warrior’ Li Qing is said to be an influential figure from the last century. Is he still alive?? Isn’t he at least 130 years old?"

The man in black’s expression was serious, "That old fellow is not only alive, but he’s also extremely robust."

"Even if he is still alive, he would be nothing more than an old man. A hundred years ago, his martial arts skills were divine, earning him the title of Guardian Warrior of Crow Feather Island. But now, with the advent of genetic modification and the emergence of Superpower Users, wouldn’t someone like him, an antique level martial artist, be killed in an instant?" Su Xiaoxi queried.

The man in black sighed, "That old fellow Li Qing also underwent genetic modification about 20 years ago, just when genetic modification was starting to rise."

"No way? More than 20 years ago, he must have been 110 years old, right? And the technology of genetic modification was immature back then, the risk of death was extremely high.."

"But he still underwent a genetic modification operation, and it was successful. What’s more, he also activated the Seventh Brain Domain and gained the Superpower ’Frost the World.’ ’Frost the World’ is a fairly common type of icy attack Superpower. But!"

The man in black paused, then continued, "However, the power of ’Frost the World’ as executed by Li Qing is beyond imagination! Approximately 10 years ago, all the branches were secretly planning to attack Crow Feather Island together. But the main family found out. Xiao Yuanshan invited representatives from all branches to attend Coco’s 10th birthday party on Crow Feather Island. During the party, Xiao Yuanshan had Li Qing, who hadn’t appeared in public for many years, perform to ’liven up the party.’ Then, under the shocked gaze of the branch representatives, Li Qing directly froze the sea area within a thousand-kilometer radius around Crow Feather Island."

"One thousand kilometers?!" Both Zhang Miao and Su Xiaoxi were greatly shocked: "That would require an immense amount of spiritual power and physical strength! Is it humanly possible?!"

"It seems unlikely. I never heard about that incident." Su Xiaoxi regained her composure and replied.

The man in black just said calmly, "Media control. Don’t underestimate the power accumulated by the Xiao family over three centuries."

He slightly hesitated, and continued, "Li Qing has been following and defending the main family line since our ancestor’s time. When the ancestor passed away, he continued to protect the main family, showing unyielding loyalty. It is only because of Li Qing’s support that Xiao Yuanshan has dared to squander and trample on the accumulated wealth and glory of the Xiao family over three centuries."

The man in black paused, looking at Su Xiaoxi, and then continued, "Over the past ten years, we have always been fearful of Li Qing’s destructive power and have not dared to act rashly towards Crow Feather Island. But Mr. and Mrs. Xiao Yuanshan have become increasingly outrageous. With the main family’s accumulated wealth about to run out, they have begun to forcibly collect fees from the branches. We have reached our limit. We had initially intended to battle it out with Li Qing, even if it cost us our lives. However, you appeared just when we needed you the most. Your cursing ability can ignore distance, ignore defense. With just a photo, you can accomplish the curse. To you, killing Li Qing would be a piece of cake."

The man in black pulled a photo from his breast pocket, "This is a photo of Li Qing himself. Miss, we are looking forward to your rescuing the Xiao family."
