Realm of the Night God

Yang Haoran knew that Xu Meijing was also an ambitious person, and it could be said that Xu Meijing's ambition was not inferior to his own.

However, as fellow ambitious individuals, Xu Meijing and he were different. Xu Meijing had a pride that he didn't possess, while he had a smoothness that Xu Meijing lacked, or rather, a cunning.

He didn't deny Xu Meijing's decisions, nor did he force his own thoughts onto her. Instead, he supported every decision she made.

So, he didn't try to persuade Xu Meijing, but rather encouraged her with open arms, which could also be seen as flattery.

"Heh heh, I know your abilities, and since you want it, you'll definitely get it. There's nothing in this world that can stop your progress."

Xu Meijing knew that Yang Haoran was flattering her, but she was still very happy. She didn't particularly like people flattering her, but it depended on the person.

"If your flattery skills were as good as your lying skills, I'd be even happier."

Xu Meijing teased with a smile, while Yang Haoran responded with a straight face, without batting an eyelid.

"What's flattery? I'm telling the truth. If I lied too much, wouldn't it be hard for people to believe me?"

"Heh heh, what do you think?"

Yang Haoran thought for a moment before responding.

"I think that others may not believe me, Yang Haoran, but you must believe me."

Xu Meijing smiled and gave Yang Haoran a white eye, then waved her hand.

"Okay, let's not talk about this useless stuff. I have a lot of things to handle in Ancheng, and I won't linger here. You can deal with those things yourself. You can give them to that demon hunter or feed them to your white snake, it's up to you. I won't ask." Enjoy the story by reading on M|V|LE%MPYR.

When Xu Meijing said this, she started off well, but her tone suddenly changed when she mentioned the white snake, giving off a strange and eerie feeling.

The white snake she mentioned was naturally Bai Xue, and Yang Haoran knew that these two women didn't get along. He felt helpless about it and wanted to explain, but was afraid that the more he explained, the more complicated it would become, and he would end up getting himself into trouble. So, he simply changed the subject.

"No need to divide the spoils. Don't you want to know what the second soul weapon is after I opened the earth soul?" Yang Haoran asked with a smile.

"I'm not interested in knowing. I'll see it eventually anyway."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Meijing gently put down her teacup and tore through space to leave, without any hesitation or lingering. She left behind Yang Haoran with a frozen smile on his face.

Yang Haoran watched Xu Meijing leave until the spatial rift completely healed, and then his frozen expression returned to normal. However, he couldn't help but shake his head and let out a sigh.

"Sigh, women..."

This time, Xu Meijing still didn't take anything with her, and Yang Haoran didn't try to persuade her. One reason was that he was clear about Xu Meijing's personality, and even if he persuaded her, it wouldn't change the final outcome, unless one day Xu Meijing's personality changed and she was no longer as proud as she was now.

Moreover, he had a grand gift to give to Xu Meijing, and compared to this gift, the spoils of war this time were not worth mentioning. Instead of wasting time on these trivial things, he might as well use the time to push forward his plan and deliver the grand gift to Xu Meijing's hands as soon as possible.

As for Xu Meijing saying that the spoils of war were of no use to her, that was just an excuse. Even if she couldn't use them herself, she could exchange them with other demon hunters for what she wanted. The reason she refused was partly due to her personality and partly because she knew that Yang Haoran needed these things more than she did.

With Feng Xiao's help and Yang Haoran's own efforts, Yang Haoran's injuries had recovered significantly, but the soul crystal in his body could not be fully refined in a short period of time.

Although the soul crystal had brought Yang Haoran some harm, the benefits he gained were astonishing. Currently, the soul crystal in his body had not been fully refined, but his strength had already increased tremendously, far surpassing the Underworld Envoy who had just opened the earth soul.

If he could refine the remaining soul crystal in his body, his strength would increase even more.

When Yang Haoran returned to the villa, the pure yin qi in his body surged out continuously, but these pure yin qi were not wasted. Instead, they spread throughout the entire Mountain and Water Formation. After he spent some time successfully suppressing the soul crystal in his body, these pure yin qi were quickly absorbed and refined by him.

Of course, during this period, other people in the villa also gained significant benefits, such as Master Wu, Xiu Juan, Xiaokang, the Wu Family brothers, and Wu Xiaoxiao. They had absorbed a considerable amount of pure yin qi into their bodies.

They dared to absorb these pure yin qi only because Yang Haoran had explicitly permitted it. If not, they would not have dared to recklessly absorb these pure yin qi.

As Yang Haoran absorbed more and more pure yin qi, his control over the soul crystal in his body became relatively easier. Until now, there had been no more instances of pure yin qi erupting from his body.

After successfully controlling the soul crystal in his body, he let Feng Xiao treat his injuries. Although he had not yet fully recovered, he had at least recovered about 50-60%, and all his wounds had healed.

After Xu Meijing left, Yang Haoran did not plan to stay in the study room anymore, as there were many things he needed to attend to. The most urgent matter to be handled was Master Wu's family affairs.

Since returning to the villa, Yang Haoran had been busy dealing with his own problems and had no time to handle Master Wu's family matters. He could only temporarily arrange for Master Wu's remaining family members to stay in the villa.

Now that his injuries were under control and the soul crystal in his body had been successfully suppressed, he could spare some time to handle other matters. Therefore, he decided to handle Master Wu's affairs first.

The villa had many rooms, and even with three more people moving in, it did not pose a burden. When Master Wu built the villa, he not only built it to be large and majestic but also left many rooms. The rooms were more than enough, and even if they were not enough, some unused activity rooms could be converted into living quarters.

The arrival of the three people did not burden the villa, but it did add some burden to Xiu Juan, who had to take care of their daily needs and was busier than before.

When Yang Haoran arrived at the living room, Master Wu was sitting alone, drinking tea. His face was calm, showing no signs of joy or anger, but Yang Haoran still saw a hint of irrepressible sadness in his eyes.

Yang Haoran knew that Master Wu had not yet fully recovered from his grief, even though he tried to suppress it and not let his inner sadness erupt. But he could not deceive Yang Haoran's eyes.

Seeing Yang Haoran walking towards him, Master Wu came out of his reverie, put down his teacup, and stood up, bowing slightly to Yang Haoran.

"Boss."

Master Wu asked about his well-being and then did not say much, quietly waiting for Yang Haoran's instructions.

"We don't need to be so polite, Old Wu. Let's sit down."

Although Yang Haoran said this every time, Master Wu did not follow his words because he knew what should be done and what should not be done. There were some things that, even if Yang Haoran said they were not necessary, he still had to do. And there were some things that, if Yang Haoran said they could not be done, then they absolutely could not be done.

Master Wu was an old hand, and he understood the reasoning behind this. He naturally knew what should be done and what should not be done, and what should be done at what time.

Seeing that Master Wu did not intend to sit down, Yang Haoran smiled and said, "Sit down, there's no one else here, and it's not a big deal."

Hearing Yang Haoran say this, Master Wu finally sat down opposite Yang Haoran.

He sat upright, while Yang Haoran leaned back slightly into the sofa, letting out a sigh.

"Sigh, Old Wu, do you regret it?"
