171: Section 171

“But… everything is different now.”

Su Yuan murmured, then his figure vanished from the spot…

“Dad, do you want wealth? Just say the word, and I’ll send it to you immediately.”

“You brat, I’m the top leader in Jiang Province now, what are you boasting about to me?”

Upon hearing Xiao Fan’s words, Xiao Taian’s first reaction was doubt. Although Xiao Fan’s strength was indeed much greater than his, some things weren’t about strength. Otherwise, wouldn’t the world be in chaos?

Of course, if you have the power to overturn the table, that’s another matter entirely.

“Sigh, don’t you trust me? You just need to follow my arrangements then, and I guarantee your political achievements will be significantly enhanced.”

“Really? Okay, then just tell me directly when you need my cooperation.”

Hearing Xiao Fan speak so confidently, Xiao Taian agreed, half-believing, half-doubting.

“Have you heard of demons?”

“What!?”

Xiao Taian exclaimed, standing up and slamming the table.

At the Standing Committee meeting, the various committee members looked at Xiao Taian with different expressions, wondering why the top leader, who usually remained unfazed by collapsing mountains, was so surprised.

“Heh heh, it seems you know. What if I told you about killing a Great Demon?”

“Fan’er, I know your strength is formidable now, but a Great Demon is a powerhouse comparable to a Martial Saint. Let’s be a bit more cautious. When the sky falls, there are taller people to hold it up.”

Xiao Taian ignored the expressions of the others, picked up his phone, and walked to a secluded corner, speaking in a low voice.

“Don’t worry, I’m not that foolish. That Great Demon isn’t at its peak, and I’m confident I can take it down.”

At this time, Xiao Fan was already strong enough to contend with a Martial Emperor, not to mention having a little fox girl protecting him.

One must know that Xi Yu was a Peak Martial Emperor powerhouse. If she consumed the Sacred Pill, she would become a true Martial Saint, capable of moving freely within the Great Xia Kingdom without any issues.

“Alright, but you should still be cautious. It’s possible the Great Demon has some unexpected tricks.”

“Okay, I understand.”

Xiao Fan nodded, then explained his plan to Xiao Taian.

“You brat, you’re becoming more and more like me in my younger days.”

After hearing Xiao Fan’s plan, Xiao Taian excitedly slapped his thigh. If Xiao Fan’s plan was successfully implemented, their Xiao Family would monopolize all the credit.

Perhaps he would be promoted in a few months. However, this plan was indeed not very friendly to others, though these considerations were not within the scope of their discussion.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Fan drove to the [Four Seasons Spring] Hotel.

“I wonder what this little fox is doing now?”

Upon arriving at the hotel, Xiao Fan took a spare card from the front desk and went to the door of room 1909.

“Ding-a-ling, Four Seasons Spring Hotel welcomes you.”

As the door opened, the announcement sounded.

“Ee-yah, Master, you’re here! Come in quickly.”

As soon as Xiao Fan opened the door, Xi Yu stood before him, her cheeks flushed crimson.

Xiao Fan frowned slightly, fanning the air with his hand, “How much have you had to drink?”

“Not much… not much.” Xi Yu swayed slightly, muttering, “Just this many.”

Xi Yu extended her delicate hands, showing six fingers.

“Six bottles?”

“What are you talking about? This servant can drink a lot, of course it’s sixty bottles!”

Xi Yu proudly puffed out her chest, almost tearing the new clothes Xiao Fan had bought her.

“Heh heh, then you’re quite impressive.” Xiao Fan’s gaze was completely captivated. As for such tests, Xiao Fan only wanted to say: bring more!

It’s precisely to let the unhealthy trends of society blow in. I might not be able to withstand the test, but you must test me.

“That’s… Master~ You drink with me, it’s no fun drinking alone.”

Xi Yu shook Xiao Fan’s hand, her eyes full of pleading.

“I’ve already quit drinking… Isn’t that inappropriate?”

Feeling the touch on his arm, Xiao Fan swallowed. At this moment, he didn’t dare to look down, but his gaze would ‘inadvertently’ glance at it for a moment.

“Ah? But the wine here is so delicious. No one in my hometown brews such good wine.”

“How about this, I’ll drink with you tonight, but right now I have something I need you to help me with?”

“What is it?”

Xi Yu blinked her innocent eyes, looking at Xiao Fan.

“Someone wants to kill me, what do you think I should do?”

“Kill!”

Xi Yu’s tone instantly turned cold, two delicate fangs inadvertently exposed, and the initial drunkenness on her face vanished.

Xiao Fan was so kind to her; he neither forced her nor gave her money so she could buy so much delicious wine. Naturally, she would not allow anyone to harm Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan touched the ears that had suddenly appeared on Xi Yu’s head. Not to mention, the sensation was really good.

“Master~”

Chapter 161: Clever Little Fox?

Xi Yu affectionately rubbed against Xiao Fan’s hand. She didn’t know why, but she always felt very comfortable doing so.

Pink-furred fox, indeed, is very good to pet. This was Xiao Fan’s only thought at the moment.

However, this was limited to him. After all, as Xi Yu’s Master, Xi Yu had a natural fondness for him, plus her impression of him was very good when they first met.

If it were anyone else, they would probably be lying on the ground, lifeless, by now.

“Xi Yu, let’s go. I’ll drink with you tonight. First, come out with me for a bit.”

Xi Yu obediently nodded, then retracted her fluffy pink ears.

“It’s truly amazing, she can retract them at will.”

Just then, Xiao Fan’s phone rang. Xiao Fan picked up his phone and glanced at it, his eyebrows slightly raised.

“Uncle Xiao, is there a result from the last matter?”

“That’s right, Young Master. I’ve thoroughly investigated the woman you asked me to look into. Originally, she was…”

“Stop, stop. Uncle Xiao, please get to the point.”

Xiao Fan rubbed his forehead, a little headache. At Xiao Yun’s reporting speed, he wouldn’t have to do anything today. Xiao Yun almost reported how many steps Ji Ningshuang took each day.

“Cough cough…”

Xiao Yun seemed to realize he had been a bit verbose, cleared his throat awkwardly, then continued.

“It’s like this: two days ago, she suddenly fell out with her relatives, then she started living a reclusive life, and yesterday she offended the Second Young Master of the Xia Family…”

“Alright, I understand. I’ll inform you if there are any further actions.”

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Fan felt a little melancholy. Judging by Ji Ningshuang’s situation, she was probably a reborn powerhouse, which made things quite tricky.

“It seems I must find a way to limit her cultivation improvement. Heheheh.”

Xiao Fan pondered countermeasures, letting out an eerie laugh, completely oblivious to Xi Yu’s gaze gradually becoming fearful…

“Mmm~”

At this moment, Ji Ningshuang had just woken up, sitting up groggily and gently rubbing her sleepy eyes.

“It seems this Emperor has been a bit lax. I definitely can’t sleep anymore today!”

Ji Ningshuang stretched, her impressive figure fully revealed.

Cultivation!

Her goal was to cultivate to the peak as quickly as possible, then find a way to return to her original world for revenge!

“Ding-a-ling-a-ling…”

Just as Ji Ningshuang finished breakfast and was about to cultivate, her phone rang.

Ji Ningshuang picked up her phone, her brows slightly furrowed at the information displayed on the screen.

Hesitating for a moment, Ji Ningshuang still answered the call.

“Ji Ningshuang, good morning.”

“What is it?”

Ji Ningshuang’s tone was somewhat cold. If it weren’t for Xiao Fan last night, she wouldn’t have been so indulgent, sleeping almost until noon.
