A sound like a sudden clap of thunder erupted in the room, and even though the hotel's soundproofing was excellent, Gu Xiyan and the others heard it in the bathroom.
So, they quickly wiped themselves dry in their respective bedroom bathrooms, put on bathrobes, and rushed out.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Xiyan stepped out of the bedroom and came to the living room. As soon as she asked the question, she saw a headless corpse lying at Mu Jinyu's feet.
As well as the dismembered body staining the carpet crimson, she couldn't help but be startled.
Soon, she calmed down, took a closer look at the corpse, and recognized the body. Wasn't it Zhao Yingshu, whom they had just run into at the hotel's entrance?
Why did she come to their room?
And why was she struck down by Mu Jinyu?
Gu Xiyan had many doubts swirling in her mind.
Mu Jinyu completed his soul search of Zhao Yingshu and slowly opened his eyes. Then, with a flick of his fingers, a spark flew from his fingertip.
"Sizzle!"
The spark landed on Zhao Yingshu's headless corpse, instantly igniting a raging fire.
But strangely, the blazing fire only burned Zhao Yingshu's body, not spreading to the carpet beneath.
Quickly, Zhao Yingshu's headless body and the scattered blood-covered skull were all consumed by the fire, with the carpet remaining intact, not even showing a burn mark.
It seemed as if Zhao Yingshu had never been in the room.
Mu Jinyu did this not to destroy the evidence.
He simply didn't want to frighten Gu Xiyan and the others, and with the service staff set to bring ice cream soon, he deliberately burned Zhao Yingshu's corpse.
After incinerating the body, Mu Jinyu slowly turned back and looked at Wen Rou, Lin Qiaoxia, and the others who had come out of the room.
Seeing Mu Jinyu's grim expression and killing intent in his eyes, everyone felt a bit bewildered and worried.
"What's wrong?" Gu Xiyan asked again with concern.
Mu Jinyu slowly spoke, "This woman just came over to pimp, and advised me that if I want to rise again, I should take you all over to entertain some big shots..."
Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's cold words, Gu Xiyan and the others immediately understood why Mu Jinyu had killed Zhao Yingshu.
They knew Mu Jinyu liked them.
And Zhao Yingshu dared to directly approach Mu Jinyu with such talk, it's like going to a poverty-stricken filial son and persuading him to kill his mother, claiming she was a burden!
Wasn't this a death wish?!
"Heh heh..."
At this moment, Mu Jinyu suddenly laughed, his eyes cold, then said to them, "Come, I'll take you to meet these young lords and see how they plan to help me rise again... hehehe..."
Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Gu Xiyan and the others couldn't help but roll their eyes at him and then said, "Let's change clothes first."
After that, they returned to the bedroom, quickly changed clothes, and applied light makeup, looking stunningly beautiful.
...
On the other side.
In another presidential suite.
The young generation of Heaven's Pride from various famous mountains had gathered in this room.
The monk-robed youth was not in the living room chatting with others but was sitting cross-legged on the floor of the secondary bedroom, gently twirling Buddha Beads, chanting with eyes closed, ignoring the outside world.
The Taoist-robed youth sat by the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the night view of the Pearl River, smiling contentedly.
While the suited youth and Hanfu youth, among others, were holding a map, discussing something.
The Hanfu youth absent-mindedly added a sentence before turning to glance at the door, whispering, "Why aren't they here yet, what the hell are they doing..."
The suited youth noticed this, frowned, and said, "Wang Ye, are you still thinking about women? We are out here looking for Dragon Nest, the mission is heavy. If you mess it up, your old man won't spare you, he'll skin you alive!"
"Yeah, it's just because the pressure is too great, that's why," Wang Ye smiled casually, not taking it seriously.
In his view, their mission out here this time was somewhat absurd, with too little chance of finding Dragon Nest.
Why not take this rare opportunity to have some fun instead.
"Boom!"
Suddenly.
The room door exploded unexpectedly.
Countless fragments burst out, wrapped in fierce energy, shooting toward everyone in the room.
"Who is it?!"
Wang Ye and the others, all fixed their eyes sharply, the brilliance flashing, simultaneously waving their sleeves to intercept the shot remnants of the door using True Yuan.
Amidst the swirling dust.
Mu Jinyu entered the room with Gu Xiyan and the six women, hands behind back, walking in slowly.
"It's you guys?!"
Wang Ye didn't recognize Mu Jinyu but did recognize the six behind him, Gu Xiyan and the others. His eyes narrowed, his heart skipped a beat, silently thinking things had gone awry.
When they entered the hotel earlier, he had only glimpsed Gu Xiyan and the six women's beauty, instructing Zhao Yingshu to give them a greeting, without paying attention to their cultivation level.
Now, he realized that their cultivation wasn't weaker than the seven of them, likely also young Heaven's Pride from famous mountains, which was a real problem.
However, Wang Ye wasn't overly worried.
After all, he too was a young Heaven's Pride from famous mountains, and although Zhao Yingshu's greeting wasn't ideal, it wouldn't necessarily lead to a life-and-death conflict between them, at most an apology or two.
And as they say, fighting leads to acquainted, although tonight he couldn't get closer to the six women's beauty, knowing them would be quite enough.
Mu Jinyu entered the room calmly, his gaze sweeping over the five shocked faces in the living room, then locking onto Wang Ye in Hanfu.
With a sly smile twisting at the corners of his mouth, Mu Jinyu coldly laughed, "Young lords from famous mountains, I've personally brought them to you. Are you satisfied?"
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, haha... don't take it too seriously."
The shock on Wang Ye's face disappeared; he glanced at Mu Jinyu. Though he couldn't perceive his cultivation level, he realized Mu Jinyu's relationship with the six women was not shallow, likely their brother, and hence apologetically laughed.
"Oh? Just a misunderstanding?"
Mu Jinyu slowly approached, lowering his voice, "Then I've brought them here, do you not want them?"
Wang Ye saw Mu Jinyu's somewhat aggressive manner, his smile stiffened, thinking even if you're their brother, talking to me without much cultivation like this is a bit too much, isn't it?
With a wry smile, Wang Ye shook his head, "Dare not... dare not... it's just a misunderstanding, I'll apologize to you..."
Upon hearing, Mu Jinyu chuckled, stepping closer to Wang Ye, casually saying, "Since you don't want them, then call your mother and let her come over to serve me!"
"You?!"
Wang Ye's face turned utterly dark at Mu Jinyu's words, his expression grim enough to drip water, killing intent flashed fleetingly in his eyes, barely containing himself, and said in a deep voice, "Young man, you went too far with your words!"
"Too far?" Mu Jinyu turned his head slightly to regard Wang Ye, with an innocent and puzzled look in his eyes, asking, "My words, aren't they almost the same as yours? I've brought the people you wanted; you don't want them. Now I ask your mom to come play with me, how do you say it's too much?"
"Seeking death!"
Wang Ye couldn't contain his killing intent anymore at Mu Jinyu's mockery, roared angrily, and suddenly swung a fierce punch toward Mu Jinyu's face!
"Boom!!"
Mu Jinyu's expression remained unchanged, standing with his hands behind his back, watching Wang Ye's fist approach with a faint smile, "Can't endure anymore, huh? Hehe..."
The laughter ceased, and Wang Ye's punch, capable of shattering mountains, abruptly halted just an inch away from Mu Jinyu's face.
Then, Mu Jinyu slowly reached over, snapped Wang Ye's arm with a crunch, and gently gripped Wang Ye's neck.
