After the Protagonist Ascended, I Set My Eyes on His Woman - Chapter 33:
Chapter 33: Slaughtering the Canglong Members
“This pink JK uniform is nice, and that Lolita outfit too—take it down for me… A hundred pairs of white stockings, please. This swimsuit is pretty—get ten sets of this three-piece one. We’ll soak in the spirit pool together when there’s time.”
Li Wanji went on a shopping spree inside the clothing store.
Guoguo’s face flushed red. “I’m not wearing those!”
She never wore these types of outfits. Online, it was only borderline influencers who wore such things.
“It’s fine. Just wear them at home for me. I’m not asking you to wear them outside.” Li Wanji patted her little head.
After buying the clothes, they bought some electronics—especially kitchen appliances.
Then, the three of them prepared to head home.
“Huh? There’s a new club opening over there. One Dragon Club? That name sounds so shady,” Guoguo commented after spotting a newly opened club through the car window.
This world was really getting messier. These kinds of clubs were now opening publicly.
“Guoguo, don’t say that,” Chen Lanyi leaned close and whispered in her ear.
“Ah—sorry!” Guoguo covered her mouth. She just realized that club was opened by Sister Gu.
Oh my god… why would Sister Gu run such a business?
Li Wanji chuckled. That woman… she really managed to flip her life around.
He released his spiritual sense to probe the area. Inside the club, there wasn’t a single person yet—part of the renovation wasn’t even complete. It seemed the grand opening would take a few more days.
The sports car soon returned to the villa area.
The moment they entered, Li Wanji sensed a wave of murderous intent. He extended his spiritual sense and quickly spotted someone hiding in a large tree 50 meters away. Another one was stationed on the rooftop of Villa #2, watching him. Someone was also hiding beneath a manhole cover, and the fourth was lying in a doghouse by the wall of Villa #3.
Four people.
Three of them were armed with pistols. The one on Villa #2’s rooftop was even holding a sniper rifle.
“Why did you stop?” Chen Lanyi asked.
“I’m going to kill a few people. You two wait here in the car.” Li Wanji stepped out.
“Target acquired,” the man on Villa #2’s rooftop murmured into his earpiece as he locked onto Li Wanji through the scope. His finger slowly tightened on the trigger…
Shhk
The next moment, a flying sword silently slashed through his neck. Thud, thud, thud—his head rolled to the ground, eyes wide open in disbelief.
“Unit 2, Unit 2, what’s going on?” came the voice from his earpiece. The head’s mouth twitched slightly, as if trying to speak, but no sound came. The eyes slowly closed.
“Daring to ambush me in secret? Courting death!” Li Wanji pointed his fingers toward the tree and fired a streak of condensed Qi.
“Ah!” A miserable scream came from the tree. A black-clad figure fell to the ground with a thud.
Li Wanji walked over and stepped onto the manhole cover. He glanced down at the corpse—his heart had been pierced through. Blood flowed out, seeping through the metal cover and dripping into the underground drain.
Beneath the cover, a man crouched along the drain wall, forehead sweating, holding his breath, not daring to make a sound. Blood dripped onto his head—he could even feel its warmth. He knew his teammate was dead.
This opponent… was extremely dangerous!
Shing, shing
In a flash of sword light, the manhole cover was sliced open.
Li Wanji leaned his head in and looked down. “Is it fun hiding down here?”
The man’s scalp went numb. “You!”
“Hehe, trying to kill me? Do you people even qualify?”
Li Wanji gathered a ball of true Qi and blasted it down.
BOOM!
The fiery Qi struck the man directly, instantly igniting into roaring flames. In a blink, the man turned into ashes.
With a light leap, Li Wanji soared into the air and landed silently on Villa #3’s wall. He moved like a ghost, silent and swift.
The man hiding inside the doghouse was completely unaware that someone had appeared right beside him.
“Units 2, 3, and 4, respond,” he whispered. “Damn it!”
Receiving no reply, he finally realized something was wrong.
“Received,” a voice suddenly came from his earpiece.
His pupils shrank as he swiftly drew a dagger and stabbed outward!
“Quick reaction. You must be the squad leader, huh?” Li Wanji flicked his fingers.
Clang! The dagger snapped clean in half.
“What?!” the man gasped in horror.
“Too bad. You picked the wrong target. Now talk—who sent you?”
Li Wanji stood with his hands behind his back.
“You… you’re a martial artist!” the man stuttered.
“Calling me that isn’t wrong,” Li Wanji smiled slightly.
Upon hearing this, the man quickly pressed a button on his earpiece. Then, without hesitation, he pulled out his pistol and fired—at himself.
Bang!
“Che, actually chose suicide.” Li Wanji snorted, flicking another streak of true Qi.
It exploded into flames, engulfing the body and reducing it to ashes in seconds.
…
Canglong Headquarters.
Rong Jiuxiao listened to the recording from his agent.
“Martial artist?” His expression shifted.
“Three years ago, this guy was just a spoiled rich brat. How did he suddenly become a martial artist? Did he encounter some fortuitous opportunity during those two and a half years he disappeared?”
“If you’re a martial artist… then I’ll have to handle this personally. I haven’t been home in a year anyway.”
“Prepare a plane. I’m returning to Mingyun tonight.”
“Yes, Captain!” the subordinate replied immediately.
“By the way, any news on Xiao Miao?” Rong Jiuxiao asked.
“Still nothing. Her last known signal vanished in the Alps. But with her abilities, taking down those enemies shouldn’t be a problem.”
“Hmm.” Rong Jiuxiao didn’t say more. A while ago, Qin Ruoyun had called to seek help from Xiao Miao. As Master Chen’s direct disciple, Xiao Miao now held one of the top positions in Canglong. She was often dispatched for high-level missions.
Like the current incident involving the Lock of Espers—Yanhuang had sent Xiao Miao.
…
That night, Rong Jiuxiao returned to the Rong family.
“Jiuxiao, you’re finally back! Your sister was taken and hasn’t been allowed to return. He’s completely occupying her! What do we do?” Rong Zucheng shouted angrily.
Beside him, Rong Haitao and his wife looked equally anxious.
“Mom, Dad, second brother, don’t worry. Tomorrow morning, I’ll go there myself. With my strength, defeating him shouldn’t be a problem.” Rong Jiuxiao repressed his fury and reassured his family before heading off to rest.
…
The next morning.
Li Wanji was still wrapped in blankets, unwilling to get up, hugging Chen Lanyi in bed. The girl was still sound asleep.
Li Wanji gently brushed aside the stray hairs from her face, revealing her delicate ear and snow-white profile.
Such a perfect side profile—how many people had fallen for that face?
Yet now… she was his.
“This life… was worth it,” Li Wanji thought. Being transmigrated to this world was the greatest gift heaven could have given him.
This was exactly the kind of life he’d dreamed of in his previous life.
“Stop! You can’t come in here!”
Suddenly, Hong Yue’s voice came from downstairs.
“Move!” BANG!
A loud thud followed.
“Ah!” Then came Hong Yue’s pained scream.
