Life is but a nightmare

Chapter 136 Women are a creature beyond comprehension!

"Very well, since you have consumed the Soul Devouring Pill!

I shall reluctantly accept your surrender!

However, since a mistake has been made, punishment is naturally required!

How about this!

I will give you three days!

No matter what method you employ!

You must reclaim the remaining fifteen percent of the shares of Medicine Treasure Pavilion that are still in circulation!

Furthermore, this matter must be undertaken in the name of your Baili family alone!

It has nothing to do with me!

Finally, after you have reclaimed the remaining fifteen percent of the shares!

I will take fifty-one percent of the shares!

Return thirty percent of the shares to the Xu family!

Add another five percent of the shares to Yuan Qingshan!

The remaining fourteen percent of the shares will then belong to your Baili family!

Do you have any objections to this arrangement?"

After Yuan Qingshan and the others knelt down and swore their allegiance,

Zhou Xuan also slowly issued his first command as the master of the Baili family!

"No objections!"

"Whatever our master commands, we shall do!"

"Everything is according to our master's arrangements!"

Upon hearing Zhou Xuan's question, Baili Yuntian immediately looked up.

He expressed his obedience to Zhou Xuan's instructions.

Although this command from Zhou Xuan still caused their Baili family to lose eleven percent of their shares.

At least, they were still left with fourteen percent.

Moreover, in this way, they no longer had to pay the compensation of two billion.

The Baili family would not have to face the brink of collapse.

The only thing that made Baili Yuntian a little flustered was.

That Zhou Xuan actually asked the Baili family to, in their personal capacity.

To reclaim the fifteen percent of shares that were still in circulation.

This was clearly an intentional ploy to trap them, wanting the Baili family to offend others.

In this way, their Baili family would be completely isolated.

If they genuinely harbored any disloyal thoughts in the future, and wanted to betray Zhou Xuan.

They would have to consider, after truly breaking away from Zhou Xuan.

What their situation would be.

This also completely severed the last bit of self-serving thought in Baili Yuntian's heart.

He truly did not expect that such a young child like Zhou Xuan.

Not only possessed an outrageously high level of strength, but also such profound scheming.

At this moment, he no longer held any ulterior motives in his heart.

He had already decided to follow Zhou Xuan from now on.

Because he had a premonition that if he did not cherish this hard-won opportunity.

And continued to oppose Zhou Xuan, then their Baili family might truly be on the verge of destruction.

Seeing Baili Yuntian so sensible and agreeing to his request.

Zhou Xuan felt very satisfied.

In fact, since he had first entered this hall,

His original intention was to subdue the Baili family to his service!

Otherwise, if he truly intended to kill all these people!

Then he would not have needed to waste so much time talking to these guys.

Acting directly was his nature!

However, since his objective had now been achieved.

Zhou Xuan naturally had no reason to continue intimidating these people!

Although force was indeed the quickest way to solve problems.

But if one always resorted to oppression, it could sometimes be counterproductive.

Controlling the balance was the fundamental way of managing subordinates!

Without further regard for these family members.

After assigning them tasks, Zhou Xuan returned to Xu Ying's room.

Looking at Xu Ying, whose complexion had recovered considerably after her hearty meal.

Zhou Xuan briefly recounted the punishment he had imposed on the Baili family.

And when Xu Ying heard that Zhou Xuan had, in such a short period of time.

Subdued the Baili family, which was on par with their Xu family's influence.

She couldn't help but feel somewhat surprised.

She did not blame Zhou Xuan for not killing all of them to avenge her!

Because she also knew that this was simply unrealistic!

If he had done so, not to mention whether Zhou Xuan had the ability.

Even if he truly had the ability to accomplish it, he would never be able to stay in this country again.

They were currently in Zhonghua, not some free country.

Where there was constant warfare!

If something like killing people and massacring families truly happened!

Then in the future, Zhou Xuan would face the pursuit and arrest of the entire Zhonghua army!

No matter how profound Zhou Xuan's strength was, he could never contend with an entire country.

Zhou Xuan could travel thousands of miles from Cangyun City to Shangjing to rescue her from her predicament.

She was already very grateful.

Naturally, she did not wish for Zhou Xuan to embark on such a path of crime!

"Later, I will treat your injuries!

To help your body recover as quickly as possible!

As for your father, you don't need to worry!

Earlier, I had already instructed them!

To send your father back home first to stabilize your Xu family's situation!

After I have healed your injuries!

You will be able to return home to reunite with him!

And if all goes well, I should be staying in Shangjing City for a while!

If you have any problems later, you can come to the Baili family to find me!

"Yes, okay!"

"Thank you, boss!"

"This time, I owe you a debt of gratitude!"

"If you need anything in the future, I can help you with any problem!"

"Of course, this does not include warming the bed!"

"Otherwise, the boss's wife would probably tear me apart!"

"Hehe!"

"But thank you to the boss's wife as well!"

"Thank you for coming from afar to save me!"

"I will remember your kindness!"

Hearing Zhou Xuan's words, Xu Ying solemnly thanked Zhou Xuan.

However, before Zhou Xuan could exchange pleasantries, she immediately reverted.

To her usual mischievous demeanor and joked with Zhou Xuan.

She even teased Lu Ling'er, who had been standing by without speaking!

Seeing that the little girl had started to "act up" as soon as her body had recovered!

Zhou Xuan immediately felt a lot of black lines appearing on his forehead.

Just as he was about to scold her, he suddenly felt his arm being pulled from the side.

Turning his head, he saw that Lu Ling'er had, at some unknown time, appeared by his side.

Her arms clasped around his, a sweet smile graced Lu Ling'er's face.

A smile that was sweet enough to astonish time.

She then turned and smiled lightly at Xu Ying in front of her.

And slowly said, "Friends face difficulties!

Helping each other is nothing to be thankful for!

After all, that's just how our Brother Xuan is, full of loyalty and righteousness!

But loyalty and righteousness aside!

Let me say this again!

Miss Xu Ying, you should pay more attention to your safety in the future!

Otherwise, we were able to arrive in time this time, but next time it might not be the case!

After all, Brother Xuan and I sometimes have our own private lives to enjoy!

I'm afraid he won't have the time to constantly monitor your whereabouts!

So I think it's best for Miss Xu Ying to find a boyfriend!

After all, it's probably not easy to casually call upon someone else's boyfriend!

"

After speaking, Lu Ling'er once again showed Xu Ying a sweet smile.

Then, holding Zhou Xuan's arm, she turned and walked towards the door.

Now, she had tolerated Xu Ying's behavior because of her injuries.

But she never expected that the other party would become increasingly presumptuous.

Helplessly, Lu Ling'er had to bring out her authority as the rightful one.

Attempting to deter the other party's little schemes.

But unfortunately, this kind of battle that belonged exclusively to women!

As a straight man, Zhou Xuan naturally could not perceive the problem.

He was just a little strange as to why the two of them, who were talking fine just moments ago.

Had suddenly become filled with a sense of gunpowder.

It looked as if they could pick up flintlock guns and start shooting each other at any moment.

"Sigh, women are truly unfathomable creatures!"
