“Do you know? I’m quite rich.” Gu Nan persuaded, “Come with me. I can give you endless drugs.”
Perhaps because she’d just sated her craving, Lin Yunyun seemed very calm. “I… no longer need those.”
“Oh? Why?”
“So many people died. This can’t be hidden from the police.” Lin Yunyun seemed dejected. “It won’t be long before they find me, and father and older sister will also find out…”
Gu Nan stared at her in a daze. To be honest, he thought of many possible answers she could give, but he never thought it would be this.
Police?
At least a hundred people died yesterday during the attack on the Long family. Even he himself slaughtered so many people in the Long family’s club that blood flowed like a river, yet he didn’t see any trace of the police.
It could only be said that from the beginning, his position was already too high. But in reality, for civilians, the government was still the most authoritative institution.
Gu Nan didn’t know how to explain this to Lin Yunyun.
“You may not know who I am.” He threw the plastic bag aside. “But I’m not afraid of the police. If you’re willing to follow me, I guarantee that no one will dare to investigate you.”
Lin Yunyun raised her head and looked at him with a gaze full of disbelief.
Gu Nan shook his head helplessly and suddenly punched the wall next to him. The wall, which was already riddled with scars, suddenly collapsed, revealing the stunned family behind the wall.
A middle-aged couple and a boy who was seven or eight years old—a normal family of three.
“Who are you guys?” The man asked with a dark expression. Anyone whose house wall was broken down by someone wouldn’t be in a good mood.
Gu Nan gently waved his hand, and three pitch-black arrows shot out, directly piercing the three people’s foreheads.
“See that?” Gu Nan helped Lin Yunyun up, not caring in the slightest about her sorry appearance. “Murder isn’t a big deal. As long as you’re strong enough, no one will dare to trouble you.”
“But the police…”
“If there are, then kill them.”
Lin Yunyun looked down at her bloody hands and didn’t speak.
“You can no longer go back,” Gu Nan summarized everything with this sentence.
Thus, the girl who lived only thirteen years but spent thirteen years like hell on earth knew that she had indeed been forced into a desperate situation.
“What price do I need to pay?”
“I need your talent. Serve me for three years after you reach Prodigious Realm. Then I’ll set you free.”
……
Gu Nan sat alone in the room. Instead of bringing Lin Yunyun back, he asked her to go back to practice as if nothing had happened.
As for the corpses of those gangsters and the family, naturally someone would take care of them.
“Young Master Nan, the appraisal results have come out,” Wang Dong’s voice sounded more respectful than before.
Gu Nan gave a slight nod. He knew that as the fuse for the Long family’s collapse, his fight last night would be widely publicized, and the “fact” that he entered Infinitesimal Stage would be known to those in high positions.
To have Gu Nan become the target so that people wouldn’t think this was the Gu family’s plot—this was Gu Nian’s scheme.
Gu Nan didn’t mind this. As long as he can properly finish this event, he doesn’t care how many people are hostile to him or scheme him.
Now, Gu Nan had just obtained the detailed analysis of the powder Lin Yunyun ate earlier—the results were no different from his guess: gray powder, a very common addictive drug. To call it a “narcotic” would be speaking too highly of it.
“Without considering the side effects, how many more drugs have stronger effects than this one?” Gu Nan asked as he turned to Wang Dong.
“Four kinds, one of which is a specialty of Heavenly Enterprise Star. It takes cypress snow grass as the raw material and is not addictive,” Wang Dong obviously did his homework and replied without hesitation.
“Not addictive? Then that’s out.” Gu Nan waved his hand.
Wang Dong was a little surprised, but he still replied quickly, “There is another kind called ‘red powder’, which is very effective if highly concentrated. It’s just that the side effects are also very serious… It was originally used to artificially bring beasts into heat.”
“As long as it’s effective, it’s good. Side effects… Oh, aphrodisiac.” Gu Nan answered casually and only realized the side effect halfway through his sentence. “Just send her some gray powder periodically. Keep the red powder for now.”
It was one thing for Lin Yunyun to take drugs. She could simply find a deserted place and get high, but if the drug was switched to an aphrodisiac, then they wouldn’t be able to hide the results.
Besides, the previous matter concerning Shi Miao’er made him suspect something, but he still needed further verification… ‘Lin Yunyun is a good way to test that conjecture.’
Gu Nan lifted the corners of his mouth, and Gu Nian’s calm and indifferent face appeared in his mind.
“Yes.” Wang Dong bowed.
……
After Wang Dong left, Gu Nan stayed in the Gu family’s residence and didn’t go out again. He was waiting for evening to reincarnate with Lu Zhanyu and complete a mission.
As for the chain event, he felt that he had almost finished the preparatory work.
The Martial Arts Competition was basically in his control now. The more obvious key figures had also been controlled, so all he had to do was wait for the event to start.
At night, Gu Nan came to a desolate wilderness, where Lu Zhanyu was already waiting for him—of course they wouldn’t reincarnate in the Gu residence, so they had to choose a place no one would notice.
As a reincarnator, Lu Zhanyu looked particularly capable and indifferent. Seeing Gu Nan’s arrival, she immediately said, “Let’s go. The Astral Gate array is ready.”
Gu Nan nodded. They had to connect to Astral Gate first so that Lu Zhanyu could share the mission with him. Only then would he be able to get the plane’s coordinates.
Plane coordinates were very special existences that couldn’t be described with words and could only be used during reincarnation.
“Why do you still have zero stars?” When Lu Zhanyu saw Gu Nan’s Astral Gate profile, she couldn’t help wondering, “After the last mission, you should at least be one star now!”
“Oh, I forgot to collect the reward,” Gu Nan replied casually.
Lu Zhanyu’s expression turned dark. She worked herself to death to monopolize the rewards by killing two teammates, yet this person didn’t even care about the rewards at all?
Gu Nan really didn’t care about the rewards from Astral Gate. After all, his purpose was Evil Value, not some stupid stars.
After receiving the coordinates of the mission plane, Gu Nan said directly, “Let’s go. It’s almost time.”
……
It was still the familiar reincarnation process. The body was entrusted to the endless void, and the soul was constantly pulled towards the coordinate until it slowly fell to an established location.
Then it split into two parts, half of which was integrated with the origin of the world, while the other half became the mark of the soul.
‘So this is actually reincarnation with half of the soul?’ They couldn’t communicate in spirit form, so Gu Nan could only wonder in his heart.
His consciousness sank slowly into the new body. When he woke up again, he and Lu Zhanyu were lying on a grassland, while there were shouts and the sound of battle around them.
This seemed to be a battle between pursuers and fugitives, and Gu Nan was on the fugitive side.
“This is a little troublesome.” Lu Zhanyu also woke up and frowned. “This body’s karma is to kill a leader from the pursuing army.”
“Then kill them,” Gu Nan didn’t care at all and replied casually. At the same time, he also began to check his body’s memory.
Although he didn’t care about karma, he still needed to understand the world he just reincarnated into. However, he was stunned after scanning the body’s memories.
“This world…”
Just then, a burst of laughter came from a distance.
“Our Azure Dragon Hall has reigned over the world for twenty years. How can foreigners like you oppose it?”
