Jun Mengyao's beautiful face contorted.
She widened her eyes in pain, attempting to use a secret art.
The three experts opposite her sneered, "Still trying to use manipulation to hypnotize? Bitch, we're not afraid of this trick of yours, because the old man never taught you the true art of mind control!"
They proceeded to beat and kick her until Jun Mengyao fainted.
The three then dragged Jun Mengyao into a car and headed straight for Longhe Town, north of Wanchun Lake.
Longhe was only twenty li from Chu City. It was originally a small village town. Later, this area underwent urban renovation and was acquired by a mysterious group for ten billion yuan.
Now, the place was filled with high-rise buildings, and construction materials were piled everywhere.
Upon closer inspection, these unfinished buildings, arranged according to the patterns of heaven, earth, wind, and thunder, vaguely formed a great formation.
Using the buildings as the formation, protecting the formation's core.
And at the formation's core was the manor of the Huanglong family.
Jun Mengyao was thrown onto the lawn of the manor. An old man with white hair, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, walked out slowly, frowning as he looked.
Behind him followed Chen Baidi, his face pale.
"Baidi, it's my fault. I didn't teach this daughter well, and you suffered such great grievance!" the white-haired old man shook his head.
Chen Baidi's eyes were bloodshot, "Where is that man?"
The old man stroked his beard, "That fellow named Qin Aichen has disappeared. China is looking for him. I reckon he's either dead or hiding in the wilderness. In any case, he won't have a good end."
Chen Baidi, unable to vent his anger, turned and poured a bucket of ice water over Jun Mengyao's head.
Stimulated by the ice water, Jun Mengyao woke up.
Seeing the two people in front of her, she felt a sense of relief, knowing that she was destined to die today.
"Godfather, I want to speak with you alone," Jun Mengyao wiped the blood from her face, slowly stood up, still graceful and dignified.
"Bitch!" Chen Baidi lunged forward, roughly grabbing her hair, "Haven't I been good enough to you? Anything that flies in the sky or runs on the ground, whatever you want, I'll get it for you. Even if you wanted the moon, I, Chen, wouldn't say no. And this is how you repay me?" Su Dan Novel Network.
Chen Baidi's roar echoed, "You bribed my personal guard captain. You took my men and helped that idiot man with his business, and even went on vacation together, living like a pair of lovers? What the hell did I ever do wrong to you? Huh?!"
Jun Mengyao's eyes turned cold, "Chen Baidi, don't make it sound so noble, as if you're some kind of love saint. Ever since you personally killed your lover in the Western Territory, and in order to get me, the adopted daughter of the Huanglong family, I knew what kind of person you are!"
Chen Baidi's eyes trembled.
When he was a young soldier in the Western Territory, he had been injured and hid in a civilian home for three months. He had developed feelings for the young daughter of that house.
That ordinary girl from the Western Territory was willing to break ties with her family for him.
As he rose through the ranks and became a renowned general in the Western Territory, a marriage proposal from the Huanglong family appeared.
On one side, a common border girl willing to sacrifice for him.
On the other, a beautiful woman with the background of the Huanglong family.
Chen Baidi might have hesitated, but to further his career, he eventually poisoned the border girl and turned to dote on Jun Mengyao.
Chen Baidi believed he had handled this matter cleanly, even eliminating the personal guard who had administered the poison.
Who knew that Jun Mengyao was fully aware of it.
Chen Baidi seemed to see the terrifying image of the dead girl, her green face, her disbelieving eyes, blood flowing from her seven orifices, trembling.
Ah!!!
Chen Baidi struck out with his palm.
With a bang, the white-haired old man intercepted him, arriving just before him.
Their energies surged, the impact alone creating shockwaves that lifted large patches of grass from the lawn.
"Baidi, don't rush. I'll have a chat with Mengyao, after all, she's the daughter I raised with my own hands."
Chen Baidi's heart trembled.
He didn't want his shameful secret known to anyone. He was already madly considering silencing her.
However, the white-haired old man's aura was comparable to his own. If they truly fought, it was hard to say who would win.
After a moment's thought, Chen Baidi withdrew his hand and smiled, "I'll give face to Uncle Huang." He then turned and stepped back from the grass.
The white-haired old man retracted his hand, his expression shaken, "As expected of someone who has cultivated the White Dragon in his palm. My combat ability can barely resist him."
He coughed, and the surrounding guards immediately cleared the area.
Then, the white-haired old man looked coldly at Jun Mengyao, "You nearly ruined the family's grand plan!"
Jun Mengyao swallowed the blood in her mouth and said calmly, "Over the years, I've done many things for my godfather, dealing with all sorts of men, even petty thugs. Was it all for Chen Baidi's words that I should die?"
The white-haired old man chuckled, "Since we've come this far, Jun Mengyao, you should know what you are. When I took you from the orphanage, I gave you the most noble life in the world. Your role was to be a tool, to help me win over talented individuals the family needed. It was a good deal."
His gaze suddenly softened, "And among the girls I adopted, you had the best aptitude and the highest talent. Now, I can still give you a chance to persuade Chen Baidi to marry you again, and let him join the family through marriage..."
Before he could finish, Jun Mengyao let out a mournful laugh, "One mistake, a lifetime of regret. If I hadn't met Mr. Qin, I might have listened to you. But alas, I'm no longer that female spy!"
The white-haired old man's expression grew colder and colder, finally snorting, "The family has plenty of women. I have hundreds of adopted daughters. Since you're seeking death, don't blame me for being heartless."
He turned and said to the area outside the lawn, "Baidi, you can deal with this bitch!"
Chen Baidi approached step by step, his eyes filled with bloodlust.
He raised his hand ferociously and directly choked Jun Mengyao's neck, "Don't play coy. Who is that person surnamed Qin?"
"He... he is actually the person you fear the most!" Jun Mengyao showed a mocking smile.
Damn it!
Chen Baidi's palm, manifesting the White Dragon, struck Jun Mengyao's head with the sound of thunder.
Jun Mengyao lost her breath on the spot.
Only a wisp of strange energy within her body trembled for a moment, then quietly concealed itself.
"Throw her into Wanchun Lake, feed the fish!" Chen Baidi dropped the woman in his hand with a smack. "You must throw her into Wanchun Lake. Wasn't she very happy there? Let her find no peace even in death!"
