At the peak of Purple Gold Mountain, besides this Cloud Mountain Villa, there were no other households.

Huang Chongyue was frantically rolling on the ground, letting out heart-wrenching screams, while Xu Fan wasn't worried about anyone hearing it.

He silently counted down in his heart, and after the time in his mind exceeded three minutes, the tormented Huang Chongyue began to surrender.

"Xu Fan... spare me, I... I was wrong, please, spare me..."

Like falling into an ice cave, Huang Chongyue was curled up on the ground, his teeth chattering, looking up at Xu Fan with a pleading expression.

He truly regretted it. If he were given another chance, he would never act this way again.

The young man before him was absolutely a madman. What was wrong with his brain to provoke him...

To resist the rampaging Cold Jade Poison in his body, his spiritual power was already exhausted.

If the Jade Silkworm continued to suck, in just a few minutes, he would turn into a dried corpse.

Huang Chongyue was truly not someone unafraid of death. He put down all his dignity at this point, desperately clutching Xu Fan's leg, begging for mercy.

"Quick… get this thing off me, I won't act tough anymore, I won't for the rest of my life..."

Reaping the consequences of his actions, if it weren't for his previous behavior, why would I need to punish him like this?

All of this, he brought upon himself.

Xu Fan looked at him expressionlessly and sneered, "Huang Chongyue, can't even last three minutes?"

"You're really not very manly."

"..."

Not finding Xu Fan's mockery humorous, tears streamed down Huang Chongyue's face as he listened.

Manliness, what's the point, he would rather be a coward just to stay alive.

"Xu Daddy, Xu Grandpa, it was all my fault before, just... just spare me, I really can't take it."

The venom, akin to extracting bone marrow, was spreading throughout his body, and Huang Chongyue began to cry even harder.

The crying was unbearably loud; Xu Fan frowned, cleaning his ears, and retrieved the Jade Silkworm.

Despite being tempted to kill this guy directly and make him pay for his past sins, reason told Xu Fan that he needed to be moderate, not impulsive.

"How do you feel? Better?"

Recovering the Jade Silkworm, Xu Fan squinted his eyes and looked at the nearly-dead Huang Chongyue.

After experiencing the Jade Silkworm's Cold Jade Poison, there was no longer any arrogance in Huang Chongyue's eyes.

Only fear remained.

Fear was the best condition to manipulate him.

Xu Fan estimated that if he wanted Huang Chongyue to be his dog, he wouldn't hesitate.

"Huang Chongyue, do you know why I didn't kill you?"

Xu Fan glanced down at Huang Chongyue and asked casually.

"Because… because I still have value to you..."

Trembling, Huang Chongyue replied.

The methods Xu Fan just used had already made him completely honest.

He dared not show even a hint of dishonesty, as the young man before him was both a madman and a demon!

What right did he have to play tricks with him?

The only way to survive now was to behave and listen!

Huang Chongyue wasn't stupid; he was well aware that the green worm most likely carried deadly poison!

Even though it had left his body, the poison had likely already been planted within him.

To survive, he had no choice but to obey Xu Fan.

"Exactly, you do have some value left; otherwise, I wouldn't spare your dog life."

Looking at Huang Chongyue's obeisant demeanor, Xu Fan snorted coldly.

Now that Xia Family's Xiao Die was taken by the Huang Family, to secure her safety while there, he needed an insider.

The Huang Family was a Hidden World Family; their members were hard to bribe with money.

Even if he could buy someone, Xu Fan couldn't find the right candidate.

Now, with Huang Chongyue swaggering over here, he was undoubtedly the best choice for a mole.

"Huang Chongyue, I don't need you to do much for me, just a small task."

"Seven days from now, there's a wedding at your Huang Family. I need you to ensure that before this wedding, Xiao Die isn't harmed in any way."

"If you can achieve that, I, Xu Fan, promise to give you the antidote then and never trouble you again."

"Rea... really?"

Hearing Xu Fan's instructions, Huang Chongyue's eyes lit up, almost leaping up with excitement!

It seemed that he was lucky enough, thanks to that Xia Family girl, to escape death.

Ensuring Xia Xiao Die is unharmed was not a difficult task for Huang Chongyue.

His family's young master, always very proud, wouldn't resort to force except under extreme circumstances.

So, following Xu Fan's instructions, he just needed to deal with some brats from the Huang Family.

This was no big deal for him.

Such a trade, exchanging it for his life, was a jackpot in his eyes. Deciding in his heart, Huang Chongyue asked, "And what about after seven days?"

Xu Fan only needed him to protect Xia Xiao Die for seven days.

Huang Chongyue couldn't help but be curious about what Xu Fan planned to do next.

"Very curious?"

Seeing Huang Chongyue's eager eyes, Xu Fan squinted and smiled.

His smile was evidently full of confidence.

Looking down at Huang Chongyue, he said, "My princess needs to be brought back by me personally."

"You think I was joking when I said I'm attending this wedding?"

"This..."

Unable to fathom Xu Fan's thoughts, Huang Chongyue grimaced, afraid to speak.

He wasn't sure if he should admire Xu Fan's confidence or remind him of how terrifying the Huang Family's power was.

No matter how strong he was, so what?

He was just one person.

Could it be that there really are fairy tales in this world about an ant shaking a tree?

Impossible.

"Huang Chongyue."

With his fate now tied to Xu Fan, Huang Chongyue was contemplating whether to caution Xu Fan about his dangerous plan when Xu Fan called his name.

Huang Chongyue looked up, puzzled, at Xu Fan.

"In seven days, won't there be many big figures attending your Huang Family's wedding?"

"Uh, this... of course..."

As a Hidden World Family, the wedding would certainly gather numerous dignitaries.

Huang Chongyue looked at Xu Fan, perplexed as to why he suddenly asked this.

"Hmm, how do you think your family's young master would feel if his fiancée were taken away in front of so many people?"
