Chapter 655: Chapter 655: Submission!

The so-called Silver Fox Alluring Heart Physique is a very unique type of physique.

It is said that thousands of years ago, a woman named Daji also possessed this physique. Over the centuries, she became well known for charming emperors and causing the downfall of nations.

Zhou Yu had also seen this in an ancient text treasured by the old man. He had always thought it was just a legend, yet today, he actually encountered someone with the Silver Fox Alluring Heart Physique.

Of course, He Xu’s Silver Fox Alluring Heart Physique was not fully developed, so her charm only affected ordinary people and some low-level martial artists.

If it were fully developed in the future, even the masters of the Saint Realm would likely find it irresistible.

Regrettably, he did not know how to develop this physique.

However, the old man probably knew.

If he could subdue her, she might become a significant asset in the future.

Thinking this, Zhou Yu decided to agree to He Xu’s request.

"I can agree to your request," he said.

Hearing Zhou Yu’s agreement, He Xu showed a look of excitement.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou."

"However, before that, there is something I must tell you."

"Go ahead."

"The reason my second uncle, He Tianyu, could become the family head, aside from old grandfather’s coercion, was also significantly tied to the support he received from an elder in the He Family."

"The elder?"

"Yes, they are some of our He Family’s elders. They may not be in the Saint Realm, but they are highly respected."

"Of course, the elders supported him partly because of old grandfather, but more importantly, He Tianyu must have gained the backing of a major force in Hucheng."

"Thus, if you decide to support us, you will inevitably offend that major force behind my second uncle in Hucheng."

He Xu nervously informed Zhou Yu of this fact.

She did not know if this revelation would scare Zhou Yu away from supporting her.

But she also chose not to hide it.

Because if she didn’t say it now, should that major force behind He Tianyu attack later, Zhou Yu might be the first to kill them.

Yet when Zhou Yu heard this, he simply smiled faintly.

"The major force you mentioned is the Zhu Family of Hucheng, isn’t it?"

"No worries; if he dares to come, I don’t mind dealing with them again."

Upon hearing this, He Xu was stunned.

"Mr. Zhou, how... how did you know?"

Before coming, Zhao Jianlong had helped Zhou Yu investigate the Zhu Family, so Zhou Yu naturally knew a bit about them.

"Don’t worry about it. Just know that you needn’t worry about the Zhu Family," he assured her.

He Xu’s face lit up with excitement.

"Mr. Zhou, then is it settled?"

"Yes," he confirmed.

He Xu glanced at Chu Zheng and the others in the distance and then whispered a few words to Zhou Yu, who nodded in agreement.

A few minutes later, Zhou Yu and He Xu returned to where Chu Zheng and his two companions stood.

He Xu looked at Chu Zheng and said,

"Master Chu, I have pleaded with Mr. Zhou to spare you all, but there is one condition."

Chu Zheng and the others exchanged glances.

"Miss, what is the condition?"

"Master Chu, I need the three of you, as well as the guards under your command, to take orders only from my father and me," she elaborated.

The faces of Chu Zheng and his companions changed.

They understood all too well what this meant.

It was a power grab.

Chu Zheng said with a grim expression.

"What if we three are unwilling?"

A resolute flash crossed He Xu’s eyes.

"Master Chu, then I apologize."

"I won’t stop Mr. Zhou," she said, every word heavy with implication: their fate would be sealed.

Chu Zheng and his companions looked at each other, and then all heaved a sigh.

Finding themselves in a difficult position, they struggled to their feet and knelt on one knee.

"Miss Xu, from this day forward, we will only follow your command."

A smile finally spread across He Xu’s face.

"Good," she said.

Then, she turned to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu nodded, stepping behind the three men and then, with a wave of his hand, he sent a stream of Yi Wood True Qi into each of their bodies.

The three men were stunned to find that their injuries were healing at a rate visible to the naked eye.

They had lived long lives yet had never witnessed such a miraculous sight.

Within less than five minutes, their injuries were nearly completely healed.

"This..."

All three were dumbstruck.

Just then, they all felt a burning sensation inside their bodies.

As Semi-Saints, they immediately sensed something unusual about this True Qi.

All three turned to face Zhou Yu.

"What was that just now?" they asked.

Zhou Yu calmly explained,

"I’ve left a little something inside your bodies."

"I have the power to heal you quickly but also to take your lives just as fast."

"If you are truly loyal to He Xu, you will be safe," he continued.

"But if you harbor any second thoughts, your fate will be grim."

Upon hearing this, Chu Zheng and the others’ faces instantly turned sour.

Deep anger roiled within them. Despite being Semi-Saints, they had to submit to someone else’s control.

But the thought of Zhou Yu’s formidable presence quickly deflated their defiance.

After a long time, their anger subsided and they respectfully lowered their heads.

"We vow never to betray Miss Xu," they swore.

At this moment, He Xu was filled with excitement.

With Chu Zheng and the guards under her command, her father’s plan to reclaim the position of Family Head was well underway.

As for He Tianyu, Zhou Yu had already agreed to help her deal with him.

He Xu looked to Zhou Yu:

"Mr. Zhou, I will take them to find my father and handle the family elders."

"If you have any other instructions, just contact me directly," she said.

Zhou Yu nodded.

"Understood," he replied.

Zhou Yu did not linger at the He Family. He went straight back to the hotel.

Familiar with the route, he headed directly to his room, about to enter, when suddenly, he froze.

Instinctively using his Divine Sense, he discovered that the door to his room had been tampered with and was merely left ajar.

Zhou Yu’s expression darkened as he rushed into Mi Lan’s room.

Mi Lan was gone...
