Du Junlin resigned from Lingnan and went to Sijiu. The night after she left, Li Wujiang gave her a notebook.
That notebook—
It was Li Wujiang's summary of his insights on speed, a "martial arts secret manual" that was hard to come by!
Du Junlin's comprehension in martial arts was indeed remarkable.
Originally.
For more than ten years, four top-tier masters had laid the most solid foundation for her.
Moreover, ever since she "bit the dry wood to make it bloom," her perspective and mindset had been greatly elevated.
Therefore.
When she received Sister Wujiang's speed insights notebook, she instantly felt an epiphany, as if she had been enlightened.
Her combat power increased significantly.
She felt confident that she could handle Li Qianfan.
Although after this guy's original 209 was activated, he easily gained the speed and strength that made "Yao Yao" envious and jealous, he lacked too much practical combat experience. He was like a seven-year-old child worth billions, completely unaware of how to spend money to enjoy himself.
So.
When Li Qianfan trespassed into her bedroom, what would happen after Du Yao Yao, who believed her combat power had reached the super-first-class realm, kicked out?
It would absolutely be "the person flies with the kick!!"
Ironclad facts proved—
Du Junlin was wrong.
Her lightning-fast right kick was seemingly caught with extreme ease by Li Qianfan as he reached out and grabbed her heel.
Before she could change her move, Li Qianfan, following the momentum, raised his hand high.
Instantly, he made Du Yao Yao do a "standing on one's head like a joss stick!"
He then raised his right knee and pressed it against Yao Yao's abdomen, "wall-bumping" her against the wall behind the door.
This was a situation Yao Yao had never dreamed of.
She was a little flustered.
Though flustered, she was not chaotic!
Du Junlin bent her right elbow and was about to heavily strike Li Qianfan's face.
But just as she was about to exert force—
For some inexplicable reason, she couldn't bring herself to use serious force.
She just looked at him with a face full of shame and anger, her cold eyes wide open, glaring fiercely at him.
However, Mr. Li didn't meet her gaze at all.
Just as Yao Yao lowered her right elbow, he leaned his head over and blocked her mouth.
Had they kissed before?
Du Junlin couldn't remember—
But now, with her mouth blocked, her mind went blank with a "buzz."
After an unknown amount of time, she vaguely sensed something was wrong.
Her chest hurt.
Did her chest hurt?
Anyway, that area hurt—
Du Junlin's body trembled violently, and she instantly woke up, looking down.
She had made it very clear to him that once she moved into Li Family Village, she would give herself to him completely.
But now he was like a beast, losing all reason and acting impatiently.
His movements were rough, and yet skillfully done.
"How could he treat me like this?"
"Especially after he spent the whole night fooling around with another woman last night!"
"Such a sacred thing can only happen in the bridal chamber of Li Family Village."
"But he—"
A tide of grievance instantly engulfed Yao Yao, making her unable to control herself, and tears began to stream down her face as if there was no stopping them.
"Why does my mouth taste bitter?"
When Li Qianfan realized what was happening, he stopped.
He slowly looked up.
He saw Yao Yao with the back of her head against the wall, looking at the ceiling, biting her lip hard. Tears were flowing down her cheeks like a string of pearls.
"What am I doing?"
Li Qianfan was filled with bewilderment.
Because Yao Yao had deliberately shown off her "playful" feet in front of him, her lewd 209 became extremely active.
This caused Li Qianfan, who had had a satisfying night last night, to fall into a certain scene out of habit and lose control of himself.
Li Qianfan regained his senses.
The overly active 209 quickly quieted down.
"From now on, don't show off your smelly feet to me. Otherwise, you'll face the consequences!"
Li Qianfan put down the leg on his shoulder, twisted Yao Yao's nose with his hand, and left as if nothing had happened.
A smart man—
At such a time, one must never apologize to a girl!
Otherwise, the more you apologize, the more guilty you will appear, and you will be punished.
You should stand your ground, or even turn the tables, making the girl think it's her fault. This is an effective way to avoid being dealt with.
"He just left like that?"
Du Junlin blinked and mumbled, suddenly feeling an inexplicable disappointment.
She really wanted to chase after him, step on his face with her foot, and grind it fiercely, asking, "I showed them off, and I showed them off! What are you going to do about it?"
Alas.
Yao Yao didn't know why she had become so sentimental now.
Ten o'clock in the morning.
In the conference room of Rhodes Castle!
Following the international Ruixue executive Parad's mutation into a vampire, the Rhodes family received reports of nine more such cases.
What did this prove?
It proved that Parad's vampire mutation was not accidental!
It proved that more mutated vampires would appear one after another!!
This matter had thoroughly attracted the Rhodes family's high attention.
They had to take it seriously.
Mutated vampires, the "Lightbringers" were ineffective!!
Then all the efforts made by the international Ruixue (Rhodes family) would be in vain.
The core members of the Rhodes family, including nine elders, had to suspend other work and discuss this matter.
Biochemical geneticist Dr. Price was also honored to be invited to participate in this meeting.
Of course, he was seated in the chair closest to the door.
As it was his first time attending such an important meeting, the doctor was very nervous, constantly glancing at his wife Jessica from the corner of his eye.
At today's meeting—
He had to cooperate with his wife to "lure the wolf into the house!"
"Count, Madam, esteemed elders."
Mason spoke first: "Half an hour ago, we received the latest news from the East. This kind of mutated vampire patient has also appeared in the East. Chinese experts have named this mutated vampire case 'Guanyin Worm'."
Guanyin Worm?
What kind of worm was a Guanyin Worm?
Everyone present instinctively exchanged glances.
Mason explained: "Perhaps the proud Chinese people do not like our naming vampires. So, they took the opportunity of vampire mutation to name the mutated case 'Guanyin Worm'."
"Mm."
Lu Rhodes nodded: "This is nothing. Whether it's a mutated vampire or a Guanyin Worm, it's still a disease. Actually, I quite agree with calling the mutated vampire a Guanyin Worm. This way, we can effectively distinguish between vampires and mutated vampires."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Indeed.
What this virus, which rendered the Lightbringers ineffective, was called was not important.
The key was that the West must develop a special medicine to treat this mutated disease as quickly as possible!
Ronnie spoke: "We have put pressure on the dark web again (by offering great benefits). We must ensure that Li Qianfan is captured alive in Blackwater Forest. Only then can we extract his bone marrow and other core cells to develop a special medicine for Guanyin Worm."
Everyone knew about this.
And they also knew that the dark web had already given assurances that they would do their best to bring Li Qianfan into the outer defense circle of Blackwater Forest.
Ronnie continued: "As we predicted, Li Qianfan is staying in Las Town. This is enough to prove that he is buying time for the dozens of experts who disappeared there to reach the west line."
An elder said: "Notify Rhodes to focus the main force on the west line. However, the east line cannot be neglected either. We must prevent the enemy from playing a trick of feinting in the east and attacking in the west."
"We don't need to worry too much about this."
An elder spoke: "To ensure Li Qianfan is captured alive, we have cooperated with the War Demon Temple through the Moses family. The War Demon Temple has also dispatched eight top-tier melee experts to assist Rhodes in guarding the east and west defense lines."
War Demon Temple—
As everyone knew.
The East had places like Lieyan Valley and Loulan, which represented the pinnacle of martial arts.
And the West had the War Emperor Temple of ancient Athens!!
But what was the War Demon Temple?
Dr. Price, sitting at the back, thought of this and subconsciously glanced at Jessica again.
Jessica immediately frowned.
Price quickly lowered his head—
"Dr. Price, you don't need to be nervous."
Lu Rhodes saw that Price was nervous and said in a gentle tone: "You are invited to this meeting because you are a top expert in biochemical genetics. We just want you to, from the most professional perspective, state your views on the failure of the Lightbringer's special medicine after vampire mutation."
Those who were discussing how to capture Li Qianfan alive, after hearing Lu Rhodes change the topic, also focused their attention on Price.
"Thank, thank you, esteemed Count."
Price stood up, placed his right hand on his chest, bowed, and then said, "I have also carefully considered this matter. I have an immature plan, and I hope for the Count's guidance."
"Oh?"
Lu Rhodes said "oh?" and then: "Then tell us."
"To understand the reasons for vampire mutation and drug resistance as much as possible. The most direct method is to study more patients."
Price said with his head slightly bowed: "I suggest selecting vampire patients from society. We can offer them payment to come to the castle laboratory to cooperate with our research."
Select vampire patients from society to cooperate with our research?
This was a feasible method.
After all, our castle laboratory was no less advanced than International Ruixue.
We can do this—
Lu Rhodes and the others exchanged glances, and all nodded.
