Super War God in the City

Chiyou Altar, outside the grand hall.

"Zihan, have you fallen for this young man!" Lan Xingyuan glanced at the distracted woman beside him and suddenly spoke.

"Ah~"

Lan Zihan was startled, letting out a cry of surprise and almost failing to react in time.

As the saying goes, no one knows a daughter better than her father; her daughter was of marriageable age—how could he not see the little thoughts of Lan Zihan's young daughter!

Regaining her composure, Lan Zihan, with a flushed face, looked down and said, "Dad, what nonsense are you talking about, we are just very good friends!"

Seeing this, Lan Xingyuan gave a wry smile, "Hehe, why feel embarrassed in front of me? Ling Fan is indeed a rare young talent!

However, it seems he doesn't have those sorts of feelings for you!"

Lan Zihan, with her head lowered, heard this and couldn't help but feel a shadow fall over her spirits, a hint of disappointment seeping through her heart.

"Hehe, you needn't be sad; such an outstanding boy, I don't believe he hasn't got women outside. Perhaps it's because of this reason that he doesn't accept others!" Lan Xingyuan said lightly, his gaze sharp.

Hearing this, Lan Zihan felt a surge of inexplicable sadness, feeling as if she had met him too late.

"Overthinking is of no use; just let it be. However, you can still try to strive for what should be fought for!

Today, I made an exception by bringing him into the altar, and I believe he will surely appreciate this favor in the future. Even if you and he cannot form a perfect union, at least you can become good friends!

I can see that he is not someone who forgets favors and violates justice!" Lan Xingyuan said earnestly.

Lan Zihan suddenly realized upon hearing this—her father brought him into the altar not just out of gratitude, but also for her sake. Such is the heart of parents across the world!

...

Half a day later, Shaolin.

The disciple who had been sent to deliver the invitation to the Witchcraft Sect had already hurried back and reported the situation to Chief Priest Jing Kong.

"You went all the way there; how is the situation with the Witchcraft Sect!" Master Jing Kong asked in the Daxiong Hall.

Years ago, the Witchcraft Sect was thriving, deeply causing the Eight Major Sects to be wary. However, that great battle back then must have significantly drained their vital energy.

It was even heard later that there were internal disputes and heavy conflicts within the Witchcraft Sect. Afterward, the Eight Major Sects no longer paid attention to the affairs of the Witchcraft Sect.

Because they themselves had also suffered losses and took several years to recover.

"Replying to the Chief Priest, as I headed there, I discovered that the Witchcraft Sect was well-ordered from top to bottom, seemingly not as debilitated as the rumors suggested—perhaps the rumors were mistaken!" the messaging disciple reported.

The timing of his arrival was quite precise, coinciding with a recent internal pacification by Lan Xingyuan's thunderous methods, which cleansed the sect of traitorous villains, certainly restoring order.

Master Jing Kong nodded slightly upon hearing this, "Hm, you may go rest!"

Regarding the matter of the Witchcraft Sect Saintess infiltrating Lost Valley, he wasn't too perturbed; what really concerned him was the lower half of the Gushe Scroll.

However, because of the Witchcraft Sect's actions, which led to the killing of disciples from Wudang, Emei, and others, these accounts likely demanded a reckoning with the Witchcraft Sect!

Master Jing Kong chanted a Buddhist mantra and tapped the wooden fish, entering meditation.

...

Outside in the secular world, Binzhou, Tianyun Group.

Before Ling Fan entered the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, Xia Ying had received a call from him, during which he had entrusted many matters to her.

Not long after, a distinguished guest arrived at Tianyun Group, none other than the protagonist's friend, the Golden Wolf King, Aoma!

Upon arriving at Tianyun, Aoma had a confidential talk with Xia Ying and introduced five of the world's top financial experts.

At the same time, Aoma and the five top economic and financial experts outlined to Xia Ying the entire world's structure and the shocking plan that was about to be implemented.

In the confidential office, Xia Ying was stunned by the grand blueprint drawn by Aoma, to the point of fainting.

"Aoma... Mr. Aoma, this is too crazy, I have a surreal feeling as if I'm dreaming!" Xia Ying took a deep breath, muttering in disbelief.

From Aoma's mouth, she learned about the world's superpowers and the basic structure, gaining insights into higher-level people and matters.

It turned out that this Earth's power was held in the hands of a few of the world's most top-tier, hidden financial magnates and families.

Among them, the most prominent were the World's Number One Family, the L family, and the Federal Consortium of Ais Duchy, Freedom Island!

With Aoma's help, what Tianyun was set to do next was to become the third major consortium, like the L family and the Federal Consortium, the Tianyun Consortium!

In plain words, it was about contending equally with the other two major consortia, partitioning the world into three!

Xia Ying's mind was somewhat dizzy as she frantically digested and absorbed the information she had just received.

Who would have thought that she, who had once been just a small bar owner, would one day compete with the world's elite!

In the past, she could never have dreamed of such a scenario, but later, because of Ling Fan, she gradually had the opportunity to take over Tianyun Group and become a well-known strong woman within Huaxia's business circles.

From a small bar owner to her current position, she was frantically making herself grow, never daring to pause.

The hardships she had incurred were known only to herself; she studied late into every night, never daring to fall behind.

Even she did not know what it was that invisibly sustained her determination to strive tirelessly.

Money? No, she had already achieved financial freedom. For her dreams? No, her goal had merely been to live without worries about food and clothing!

So what was it? Later, she vaguely found the answer in her heart.

It was because of Ling Fan. Everything that Ling Fan tasked her with, everything related to Ling Fan, she pursued without hesitation, without reason.

Although she now controlled Tianyun Group and was gradually expanding more businesses, she had never thought of taking such a huge step all at once!

It felt as if she had suddenly boarded a rocket, heading straight for Mars.

"Miss Xia, this is Ling Fan's intention, it holds great significance for us. We will assist you with all the resources and preparations!" Aoma said earnestly.

Xia Ying's expression eased slightly, she muttered to herself,"Is this Ling Fan's intention? Who exactly is he? From the moment he expanded Tianyun, has he been planning such a shocking ambitious plan?"

At that moment, she realized just how powerful and ambitious Ling Fan was; he was beyond her ability to measure, truly an enigmatic man!

"Miss Xia, you don't need to feel too much pressure. We will do our utmost to help you. However, if you feel you do not want to do this or cannot handle it, we are open to supporting someone else to take over," Aoma spoke calmly.

Upon hearing this, Xia Ying was instantly shocked, fully regaining her composure, "Is... is this also Ling Fan's intention?"

Aoma paused for a moment, hesitated, then said, "All you need to know is that this matter is crucial for us, it must be accomplished. Ling Fan has always been at the forefront, facing countless dangers for all this!"

"In this world, when you stand at a high enough position and wish to remain unharmed, you need the power of a strong backing!"

Xia Ying took a deep breath, struggled to calm herself, and finally, her gaze resolute, said, "I will do my best to execute it, tell me your detailed plan!"

Upon hearing this, Aoma smiled and nodded, "The woman chosen by Ling Beiming indeed does not disappoint. Next, we need a lever and a fulcrum to pry the Earth's financial market!"

Aoma began to explain to Xia Ying the several key points in the plan and the important steps that needed to be implemented!
