9 a.m., suburban villa area.

Dressed in his finest suit, a new shirt, and a wide, stable-looking tie, Bianyi, holding a white handkerchief over his mouth, walked into Mr. Zhang's villa.

"Stay there; don't come any closer."

Mr. Zhang, sitting on a long wooden bench in the courtyard, looked coldly at Bianyi.

With a smile, Bianyi stood at the door of the villa and said, "Alright, Mr. Zhang, I've come to do business with you sincerely."

Mr. Zhang's expression was very frosty, as two sexy women were kneeling in front of him.

"Your sincerity is taking away my 500 million and letting me be mocked by that bastard Shen Qiang in public?"

"That was an accident." Bianyi took a step forward.

Immediately, two masked cultivators at his side stopped him.

Bianyi raised his eyebrows and said, "Alright, Mr. Zhang, there is indeed a misunderstanding between us, but I hope you understand that it's not because of me, but because of that bastard Shen Qiang. I gave him the money; he played me, and you've seen my account."

Tsk, tsk, tsk." Mr. Zhang on the wooden bench frowned and said, "Are you trying to play the victim in front of me?"

Bianyi let out a helpless sigh and caught sight of the two sexy women kneeling before him, then said, "Mr. Zhang, why not let these two crude subordinates of yours, and those two vulgar women in front of you leave, so we can talk alone?"

"What did you say? They are my carefully trained little darlings." Mr. Zhang's face turned even colder.

Bianyi cut in with a cold voice, "Mr. Zhang, forgive my frankness, but this little game is truly boring. With just a bit of money, I could find a couple of streetwalkers who would act even better, and why do you enjoy playing this game?"

"It's because you can't control everything in the real world, so you can only experience a king-like feeling in such petty games."

Looking at Mr. Zhang, whose expression had turned somewhat unpleasant, Bianyi continued, "You're from the illustrious Zhang Family of the Cultivation World, true, you're a collateral member; you can't touch the core of the Zhang Family, no matter how hard you try. But what if, kneeling before you was a stunningly beautiful Demon Fox?"

"She's pretty, sexy, a Great Demon with overwhelming combat power. Just think, how exhilarating it would be when she kneels before you? Why does the inner circle of the Zhang Family reject you? Isn't it because your cultivation is weak?"

"But once you have that Beautiful Demon Fox, everything would change. She's not just beautiful and thrilling, she's also a formidable force. Trust me, the entire Cultivation World would be envious of you, not to mention the Zhang Family. You would become a superpower!"

Mr. Zhang looked at Bianyi with some interest and said, "Bring a chair for him; he's ill."

Bianyi smiled.

Sitting on the brought-over chair, Bianyi continued, "Mr. Zhang, you're a smart man; you must know very well how awesome it is to own a Great Demon. For instance, the Jing Family, just a third-class Family, but because of that girl from the Jing Family who has a millennium-old Flower Demon, to what extent are they awesome?"

"The fourth young master of the Ji Family wants to marry her, and now it's the Jing Family who's clamoring for an annulment, with the Ji Family refusing. They're fighting back and forth, is it really just for a woman? I'm telling you, no, they want that powerful Flower Demon!"

"And now," a hint of contempt flashed in Bianyi's eyes as he smiled, "if you trust me, I can help you find a Beautiful Demon Fox a hundred times more powerful than that Flower Demon."

Mr. Zhang looked at Bianyi with hope, and just as Bianyi thought he had persuaded him, Mr. Zhang suddenly said coldly, "With such a good thing, why don't you do it yourself? Do you really think I'm a fool? Would I believe that pies fall from the sky?"

"Would I believe that a scumbag like you would be kind enough to give me such a big gift for no reason?" Mr. Zhang sneered at Bianyi, "There's no shortage of swindlers in Big Shanghai; I've seen too many assholes like you. You think you can deceive me? You're far from it."

After hearing this, Bianyi fell silent for a moment before raising his eyebrows and saying, "Yes, it's unbelievable to just offer you benefits. Even I don't believe I would be that kind, but no matter what you think, I must tell you, the reason I'm telling you all this is because I'm dying."

"Yeah, if you don't repay my 500 million, I'll chop you into pieces and feed you to the lobsters," Mr. Zhang said with a laugh. "So you've come to me, trying to deceive me again. Save your breath, Bianyi. Stow your little smarts, stop wasting time, go raise the cash, pay me back, and then you might have a chance at life."

After hesitating for a moment, Bianyi said, "Your 500 million is a small issue, the big issue is I've extorted many people, and now they want to kill me."

Mr. Zhang hesitated for a moment.

A man who looked like a butler whispered something into his ear.

Then, a tablet was handed to Mr. Zhang, who looked at it and laughed, "Oh, this looks like the truth. Someone said the server with your ledger was seized by the Dragon Group, and the best part, this Shen Qiang, he says if he can't bury you, he'll cripple his own martial arts and leave the Cultivation World."

Glancing at Bianyi, who was covering his mouth and coughing, Mr. Zhang laughed and said, "And you post saying, you've confirmed the real identity of the Dragon Group's hundred million-dollar superstar target, now he's out to kill you to keep you quiet? This is too funny. You're implying Shen Qiang is that Nightmare-masked man?"

"Do you believe he is?" Bianyi smiled.

Mr. Zhang laughed, "Of course not. That Nightmare-masked man is a mere Qi Condensation stage trash, while Shen Qiang's cultivation is at the Golden Core Stage. Do you think someone could go from Qi Condensation to Golden Core Stage within a few months? That's impossible."

Bianyi laughed and said, "You can consider this my scheme. But I'm clear, without my ledger, many people will try their best to kill me to keep me quiet. So I won't live for much longer, and I won't have the chance to catch that Beautiful Demon Fox anymore."

"Besides, I'm quite aware that Shen Qiang has recently been eyeing that Beautiful Demon Fox, and if you join forces with me, I can help you catch her."

Mr. Zhang laughed, "What do you want, then?"

"I want Shen Qiang dead," Bianyi said very seriously, "and his Storage Ring, because it holds many valuable things. For instance, the Daluo Heavenly Tribulation Heart Sutra alone is worth a hundred and fifty million, not to mention the Unrivaled Flying Sword Red Cloud, which is also in there. You know, with his current cultivation, he can't use it."

"Besides that, his bank cards, personal Magical Treasures are all inside it; conservatively estimated, they're worth at least several billion. Help me kill him, and I'll take his Storage Ring to escape with."
