Realm of the Night God

"Hehe, this is the place."

Looking at the small house in front of them, Second Boss smiled and said, then waved his hand, and a visible restriction barrier appeared.

The restriction barrier covered the entire small house, and this restriction barrier was completely different from the one that covered the entire Cloud Mist Manor. The latter could sense the existence of power fluctuations, while the former was like the air, unable to sense anything.

This method was not unfamiliar to Yang Haoran. When he was refining the soul-refining cauldron, the barrier he set up had certain similarities to the one covering the small house.

The reason why this restriction barrier was revealed was, of course, because Second Boss deliberately let it be revealed. Otherwise, it would be impossible to see its existence with the naked eye.

Under Second Boss's prompting, the barrier opened a gap, which was not small and could accommodate several people walking side by side.

However, just as the barrier opened a gap, a fluctuation suddenly appeared in the space in front of the four of them, and then the space split open, and a figure walked out of the space rift.

The newcomer was a young man, looking no more than twenty years old, with a delicate and handsome appearance, giving a sense of a fresh young man.

The man's appearance blocked the path of the four of them. He swept his gaze over Yang Haoran, Ye Zhiqiu, and Bai Xue, and when he saw Bai Xue, his expression stiffened, and he stood there dumbfounded.

Seeing the man's loss of composure, and that it was because of his own prey, Second Boss frowned slightly, looking a bit displeased, and then coughed a couple of times.

Hearing Second Boss's cough, the man snapped out of his daze. He turned his gaze to Second Boss and gave an embarrassed smile.

"Second Brother, who are they?" the man asked, and his gaze involuntarily lingered on Bai Xue again while speaking.

"They are all my friends, and as for this one..." Second Boss paused, looked at Bai Xue beside him, and then continued, "She will be your sister-in-law in the future."

Hearing this, Bai Xue's whole body broke out in goosebumps, and she felt a sense of nausea in her heart. But in order to ensure the smooth progress of the plan, she still forced a charming smile on her face, as if to confirm that Second Boss's words were true.

Upon hearing that the beautiful woman in front of him would be his sister-in-law in the future, the man's expression changed, and a look of regret flashed across his eyes.

"Oh, so she's my sister-in-law. I'm sorry, I was rude just now."

The man apologized, not daring to continue looking at Bai Xue, fearing that he would embarrass himself again because of Bai Xue's beauty, so he only glanced at Bai Xue once and then quickly shifted his gaze to Second Boss.

"Second Brother, you've brought them here. Are you planning to do something?" the man asked.

"I'm just taking them in to have a look around. You don't need to worry about it," Second Boss replied.

The man had a troubled expression on his face, and then continued, "But... Big Brother has instructed that we can't let outsiders into this house."

"Outsiders? What outsiders? Is your sister-in-law an outsider?"

Second Boss's expression darkened, and the man's obstruction made him feel embarrassed, which made him feel like he had lost face. Therefore, his tone became harsher, even with a scolding tone. Еnjоying thе stоry? Find mоrе аt МV-LЕМРYR.

"Well, this..." The man was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.

"Alright, you move aside quickly and don't get in our way and waste my time. We'll go in and come out soon." Second Boss said impatiently.

Seeing Second Boss's impatience, the man didn't dare to obstruct them further and stepped aside.

"This is my Fifth Brother, he's young and doesn't understand. Sister, don't take it to heart."

Second Boss was worried that Bai Xue might misunderstand, so he quickly explained with a smile on his face.

Bai Xue shook her head with a smile and said, "It's fine, I'm not that petty."

"Haha! Sister's magnanimity has impressed Second Brother. Come, let me take you in."

Second Boss laughed heartily, then led the three of them towards the gap in the barrier.

Yang Haoran followed closely behind, and when he passed by the man, he apologetically smiled and took out a cigarette to offer him.

"Sorry for the disturbance. We'll just take a look and come out, don't worry."

The man took the cigarette, and Yang Haoran lit it for him with a smile.

Seeing Yang Haoran's enthusiasm, and that he was Second Brother's friend, the man didn't think much of it and lit the cigarette to take a puff.

"Thank you, but you'd better come out quickly. Don't stay in there too long, or else Big Brother will blame me and I'll get into trouble too."

The man had a troubled expression, and it was clear that he was not in a good mood.

Yang Haoran smiled and nodded without saying much, then quickly followed the others as they entered the barrier under Second Boss's lead.

As the four of them entered the barrier, the gap closed up, and the barrier disappeared from sight.

Inside the barrier, Yang Haoran still couldn't sense any demonic qi, and his expression remained unchanged. He didn't ask anything and obediently followed behind Second Boss.

Second Boss chatted with Bai Xue as he opened the door to the house, which was not locked and opened easily with a light push.

The four of them entered the house, but there was no sign of the demonic woman.

From the various facilities in the house, it seemed that this was not a living space, but a small meeting room or a small living room.

"This is the place where we Five Brothers discuss important matters. Although the space is not large, the things here are all high-end and expensive," Second Boss explained with a hint of boastfulness in his tone.

Bai Xue glanced around, but she had no interest in these expensive items, and neither did Yang Haoran and Ye Zhiqiu.

"Second Brother really has impressive skills. Some of the things in this house are so rare that even wealthy people might not be able to buy them."

Bai Xue's words were completely fabricated. She had no idea whether the things in the house were valuable or not, and she only said that to cater to Second Boss.

"Haha! Sister has good discernment. Some of the things here are indeed very precious, and even the wealthy might not be able to buy them. Take this painting for example, it may look like a blank piece of paper, but it was created by a renowned artist. Only those with a high appreciation level can understand this painting. Luckily, your Second Brother has that level of appreciation, and I went through great pains to obtain this painting," Second Boss said proudly as he pointed to the "painting".

Though it was just a blank piece of paper, in Second Boss's eyes, it was as if he could see the beauty undressing herself.

Bai Xue's mouth twitched slightly, and she let out a chuckle, saying, "Only those with refined tastes can appreciate such masterpieces. Second Brother's appreciation level is truly admirable. After we've dealt with my brother's matter, could you lend this painting to me for a few days? I'd like to improve my own appreciation skills."

Bai Xue said this both to flatter Second Boss and to urge him to focus on the main task. However, Second Boss didn't catch the underlying meaning in her words and mistakenly thought that Bai Xue shared his appreciation for the "painting".

"Don't worry, sister. What's mine is yours. You can appreciate it for as long as you like."

Bai Xue smiled awkwardly, seeing that Second Boss hadn't understood the true meaning behind her words, so she decided to make it clearer.

"By the way, Second Brother, where's the demonic woman? Isn't that why we came here?" Bai Xue asked with a smile.

"Hehe, sister, don't be so impatient. The demonic woman is right below us," Second Boss said as he gently turned a vase, and a series of clicking sounds were heard. A passage leading underground appeared in the center of the room.

"This house is not as simple as it appears. There's another world beneath it, but because of the restriction barrier, you couldn't sense it."

As he spoke, Second Boss waved his hand, and a visible barrier of light appeared, sealing the entrance to the underground passage.
