Xu Nian hadn''t expected Wang Siyu to appear here.

    Since that incident at Qinglin Academy, where Xu Nian had severely beaten Qin Tian, he had lost sight of Wang Siyu. As his prominence at the Academy had grown, the distance between him and Wang Siyu had widened as well.

    He had thought their paths were unlikely to cross again, but unexpectedly, he had run into her here.

    However, Xu Nian was puzzled. Shouldn''t Wang Siyu be studying at Qinglin Academy? How had she ended up in this place?

    "Haha, I heard there was a show put on by the two Gang Leaders today, so naturally, I had to come and see for myself," Xu Nian said, looking past Wang Siyu to where Lin Ji and Qian Cheng were seated.

    "Young Master Ouyang truly lives up to his reputation as a master of the Flower Picking World, able to catch even the faintest scent of our Heavenly Slash Gang''s flowers. But you''re in luck today, Young Master Ouyang; we''ve captured a group of upper-class prey for you to feast your eyes upon," Qian Cheng said, laughing heartily.

    Although they both had higher cultivation than Ouyang Long and looked down on him, since he had become the adopted son of Ouyang Tian, he was destined to inherit the position of Family Head Ouyang one day. Out of respect for Ouyang Tian, they naturally treated him courteously.

    "Is that so? Then I''d better take a good look," Xu Nian replied with a slight smile, then headed towards the six young women.

    As the six women saw Xu Nian approaching, their beautiful faces showed signs of nervousness and fear, and they instinctively stepped back.

    Xu Nian sized up the six women; all appeared to be around twenty years old, each with fair looks. Of course, the most beautiful among them was naturally Wang Siyu.

    "Not bad, not bad. These are indeed fine prey compared to the vulgar and commonplace," Xu Nian said, pretending to look depraved.

    Your journey continues with empire

    "Haha, since Young Master Ouyang says so, why don''t you pick one first, Young Master? After all, our big brother has recently acquired a stunning beauty and now regards other women as nothing," Lin Ji said with a bellow of laughter.

    "Oh? A stunning beauty? What kind of stunning beauty?" Xu Nian inquired.

    "It''s quite strange. This beauty came to us of her own accord, surrounded by a mist of Immortal Qi, and is unspeakably gorgeous. Her graceful figure is the most perfect I''ve ever seen among women. No wonder our big brother has been in secluded cultivation, spending all his time cultivating with her," Lin Ji explained.

    Xu Nian furrowed his brow subconsciously.

    A stunning beauty with Immortal Qi?

    Could it be her?

    Xu Nian shivered at the thought. If it was indeed her, then the Heavenly Slash Gang was in for a turbulent time.

    "Alright, Young Master Ouyang, stop fantasizing about that beauty. Time to make your choice," Qian Cheng said with a laugh.

    Even though Wang Siyu later chose to marry Qin Tiann, she still kept her own boundaries in this respect.

    Wang Siyu''s body was rigid, allowing Xu Nian to hold her, her eyes revealing a hint of fear and confusion.

    She had heard of Ouyang Long''s reputation and knew that the young man before her was a quintessential playboy.

    However, although Ouyang Long was embracing her waist, he kept his hands very proper, and on him, she felt a strangely familiar aura, especially those eyes, clear and seemingly recognizable from somewhere.

    "Ah!"

    Suddenly, Wang Siyu felt a pinch and let out a coquettish yelp, her pretty face flushing red.

    "What are you dazing for, hurry up and pour me a drink," Xu Nian ordered Wang Siyu harshly.

    Wang Siyu quickly picked up the cup and gently brought it to Xu Nian''s lips.

    Xu Nian gave an evil smile and downed the drink in one gulp.

    "Haha, Young Master Ouyang really knows how to enjoy life. When it comes to dealing with women, we really should learn from you," Lin Ji laughed loudly.

    Xu Nian smiled faintly, looking like a charlatan as he spoke, "Master Lin, this way of treating women is actually very simple. Women are made of water, and it''s no use to just hit them; they need to be cherished. Only when you treasure them like jade can women willingly open their hearts to you."

    "Haha, Young Master Ouyang is indeed a master; we admire you. Come on, let''s drink," Qian Cheng laughed heartily, toasting and finishing his drink in one gulp.

    Xu Nian smiled silently, quietly drinking.

    Afterward, Xu Nian took the opportunity to inquire about the Xuan Iron Vein while drinking.

    Although these men were all very tight-lipped, Xu Nian still managed to learn that the Xuan Iron Vein was located behind Qingliang Mountain.

    After half a binge, Qian Cheng and the others one after another took their women back to their rooms to rest, and naturally, Xu Nian brought Wang Siyu to the guest room assigned to him.

    "What are you standing there for, take off your clothes!" Xu Nian sat on the bed and coldly said to Wang Siyu, who stood there stiff as a board.

    Wang Siyu bit her red lips, her face pale, and after a moment''s hesitation, she began to undress.

    Step by step, she moved toward Xu Nian.

    Seeing this, a touch of disappointment flashed in Xu Nian''s eyes.
