"Miss Yu Linling, time is almost up. Have you made up your mind?"
While Wang Yuyan was secretly contemplating how to get rid of her two romantic rivals, Gu Qinghan and Ye Shishi, Shen Lang looked at Yu Linling and smiled.
Shen Lang insisted that Yu Linling kiss him not because he was a pervert, but because Yu Linling was a difficult woman to deal with if her mindset wasn't disrupted.
"Shen Lang, you are a shameless man. I admit defeat."
After weighing the pros and cons, Yu Linling walked up to Shen Lang and said coldly.
With that, Yu Linling tiptoed and planted a kiss on Shen Lang's left cheek.
However, Yu Linling never expected that just before her lips touched Shen Lang's cheek, Shen Lang's head suddenly moved.
The next second, Yu Linling's red lips landed on Shen Lang's lips.
"What?"
This sudden turn of events not only startled everyone present but also left Yu Linling bewildered.
Meanwhile, far outside Longdu, a man of 1.89 meters, strong and powerful, saw this scene, his pupils dilated, and he crushed the iPad in his hand with force.
"Shen Lang, I will kill you. No, I will kill your entire family."
The strong and powerful man was none other than Kong Wudao, the young master of the Kong family in Longdu, and one of the four famous young masters of Longdu, Young Master Kong.
Yu Linling was an orphan, adopted by the Kong family from a young age. She grew up by Kong Wudao's side. To Kong Wudao, she was his forbidden pleasure.
Kong Wudao had never touched Yu Linling, but in his heart, he had already considered her his woman. Seeing his woman being manipulated by Shen Lang like this, how could Kong Wudao not be enraged, how could he not want to kill?
"What's wrong? Young Master Kong, are you angry?"
As Kong Wudao angrily threw the iPad on the ground, a refined man in white sitting next to him asked with a smile.
"I've investigated Shen Lang. He's from Qiulong Mountain, an orphan with no background, but he possesses powerful medical skills and martial arts. His methods are ruthless and decisive."
"His eyes hold no reverence for this world. He kills and harms people based on his mood; he is an untamed beast."
"Therefore, don't be too shocked by anything he does."
"Qiulong Mountain?"
Upon hearing the refined man in white mention these three words, Kong Wudao frowned and said, "I heard my grandfather say that a ferocious dragon is imprisoned on Qiulong Mountain. This dragon once severely injured the five great families. Do you think Shen Lang might be related to that person?"
"Haha, impossible."
The refined man in white chuckled gently and said, "The person you're talking about is arrogant and unruly, looking down on everyone in this world, and has never taken disciples. How could Shen Lang be related to him?"
"Besides, even if they are related, so what? If the five great families could confine that dragon on Qiulong Mountain twenty years ago, can't they deal with an immature Shen Lang twenty years later?"
Hearing the refined man in white's words, Kong Wudao was slightly relieved. He then sat on the sofa, picked up a wine glass, poured himself half a glass of whiskey, and then used tongs to add a few ice cubes to the glass.
After swirling the glass, Kong Wudao downed the wine in one gulp and said, "What do you plan to do?"
"Young Master Kong, there's no shortage of audacious people like Shen Lang in this world. For such people, we must let them know what rules are and who makes them."
"A fierce tiger?"
The refined man in white smiled and said, "We don't allow fierce tigers here. They are either tamed and taken as dogs, or they are beheaded."
"Have you figured out what to do?"
Kong Wudao chuckled upon hearing the refined man in white's words.
"Young Master Kong, my engagement with Gu Qinghan is about to expire. I'll be heading to Nanling tomorrow. Interested in being my best man?"
The refined man in white looked in the direction of Nanling and said with a smile.
"Of course, we are brothers."
Kong Wudao laughed. "I heard Gu Qinghan is not only a beauty but also decisive and resolute, having apprehended hundreds of criminals. Her personality is even fiercer than your thoroughbred horse. Do you think you can tame her?"
"In this world, there is no beast I, Qi Tuojiang, cannot tame, nor is there any woman I, Qi Tuojiang, cannot tame."
The refined man in white was none other than Qi Tuojiang, the young master of the Qi family in Longdu, a man of elegant appearance, gentle demeanor, and refined manners.
However, only people like Kong Wudao knew that this gentle scholar hid himself deeper than anyone else.
Nanling was a good place, coveted by many, and Qi Tuojiang was no exception.
Therefore, Qi Tuojiang had taken Yuan Bubai as his subordinate and invested a lot of resources in him, making Yuan Bubai use the "Blissful Feast" at "Heaven on Earth" to win over and corrupt the powerful figures in Nanling, turning everyone into dogs.
Qi Tuojiang's plan was already halfway realized when, unexpectedly, Shen Lang stormed Heaven on Earth, not only killing Yuan Bubai's subordinates but also beheading Yuan Bubai himself after a phone call with Qi Tuojiang.
Because of this incident, Qi Tuojiang held a deep grudge against Shen Lang.
What angered Qi Tuojiang even more was that after the incident, Shen Lang should have been arrested as a criminal. However, to Qi Tuojiang's surprise, his fiancée, Gu Qinghan, had been constantly bailing Shen Lang out, leading to Shen Lang remaining at large.
Qi Tuojiang was naturally cold and detached. Towards family, friends, and even himself, he was outwardly benevolent but inwardly sharp.
However, Qi Tuojiang did have a soft spot, and that was Gu Qinghan.
Ten years ago, during a chance encounter, Qi Tuojiang had fallen in love with the cold and aloof Gu Qinghan with her flowing hair.
However, over the years, Qi Tuojiang had been busy expanding the territory for the Qi family, suppressing this affection deep within his heart.
What made Qi Tuojiang anxious was the appearance of an unknown young man around Gu Qinghan, with whom she was very close.
Qi Tuojiang investigated and discovered that this young man was Shen Lang, the killer of Yuan Bubai.
Whether for revenge for Yuan Bubai or for Gu Qinghan, Qi Tuojiang could not let Shen Lang live freely.
Especially when it concerned Gu Qinghan, no one knew that Gu Qinghan was Qi Tuojiang's unattainable love, his white moonlight, but also his inverse scale. Anyone who touched it would die.
Therefore, Qi Tuojiang was going to Nanling as his engagement approached. This trip to Nanling was not only for Qi Tuojiang to marry Gu Qinghan and gain a capable wife, but also to kill Shen Lang and eliminate a formidable enemy.
For some reason, although Qi Tuojiang had never met Shen Lang, he had a feeling that Shen Lang would be his greatest adversary.
Therefore, whether for Gu Qinghan or for himself, Qi Tuojiang was determined to kill Shen Lang this time.
