Once these words were spoken, everyone understood.

Ruan Yu is trying to rob us by force!

After Qian Xing left, another outsider came! He's not even as good as Qian Xing!

At least Qian Xing has the same blood as them!

Seeing the diverse and vibrant expressions on everyone's faces, Ruan Yu asked, "How much of the profit did Qian Xing take from you in the past?"

"Ninety percent," the Qian family member said, annoyed.

Ninety percent? Qian Xing is really cunning!

He was so cruel to his own people, no wonder the Qian family was ecstatic when he died! They had no intention of avenging him whatsoever.

"I'll only take 30% from you."

Ruan Yu offered extremely tempting terms, terms that no one could refuse.

"A 30% profit? Really?"

"Are you sure it's not seven for you and three for us?!"

"If that's the case, it's not impossible..."

The Qian family members asked all sorts of questions at once.

"of course."

Ruan Yu gave an affirmative answer.

The shop was readily available, the staff was readily available, and even the goods sold in the shop were readily available. It could be said that she gained something for nothing, receiving 30% of the profits for no reason at all.

But now it seems like the Qian family's reaction is as if they benefited from it.

If they go solo, or leave the Qian family and reunite to open a shop together, they will get 100% of the profits!

However, there are also smart people in the Qian family.

Being a businessman, he was quick-witted: "We can agree to your conditions, but in exchange, you must lend a helping hand when we encounter insurmountable difficulties."

He didn't directly say that Ruan Yu "didn't contribute," firstly so as not to upset Ruan Yu, and secondly so that he could gain benefits for himself and his clan.

“That’s natural,” Ruan Yu said.

Since she is determined to take over the Qian family's assets, she must be allowed to provide them with protection.

Not only that, she also wanted to rename the Qian family's shop, adding her surname to it.

Although many members of the Qian family were not happy, what could they do when Ruan Yu had the power to back up his guns? They had no choice but to agree.

“Ruan’s Trading Company it is! Sir, should we go and change the signboard now, or…” A few people tried to take the opportunity to slip away.

They've accumulated quite a bit of savings over the years. Wouldn't it be better to escape to the ends of the earth and live a life of luxury? Why do they have to stay here and be treated like slaves?

What good is 70% profit? Why should outsiders take away the shops they've worked so hard to build?

At worst, we can just abandon the shop and run away with the money!

These people's eyes darted around, how could Ruan Yu not see through their thoughts?

"Don't rush, hand over a wisp of your divine consciousness." Ruan Yu's lips curved slightly, her smile so sweet. Yet her words sent a chill down one's spine!

They surrendered their consciousness, and Ruan Yu planted a soul imprint on them. Then, they truly were her servants! No matter where they fled, they would be caught!

She could even take their lives in the blink of an eye!

This sparked resentment and anger among more members of the Qian family: "Sir, if you don't trust us, why use us at all?"

"That's right, sir. We've already agreed to give you a 30% cut, so why are you treating us like this?"

"To hand over, or not to hand over?" Ruan Yu didn't care what these people thought; she secretly put pressure on them.

"Hand it over!" The Qian family members are all spineless.

Before any pressure was even applied, everyone present, from hunched old people to two- or three-year-old infants, surrendered their divine consciousness.

Now, those who wanted to escape had to give up their plans.

Having dealt with the people in the front hall, Rabbit Mulberry and the Dry Land Tiger Python returned home laden with their spoils.

The lobby was packed with people. Ruan Yu sensed their approach and, with a thought, sent them back into her spatial dimension. No one noticed the entire process.

"Shh!"

Ruan Yu summoned the Silver Guardians from the Hundred Ghosts Banner.

The Qian family members stared wide-eyed and craned their necks at the sight of such an ugly and strange-looking "person".

However, Ruan Yu's next sentence shocked everyone!

"Go, kill everyone in the manor who doesn't bear my spiritual imprint."

"Yes." The Silver Guard's voice was hoarse. He turned and flew into the air, and in an instant, dozens or even hundreds of Black Iron Guards appeared behind him.

The guards dispersed and infiltrated the various courtyards. Soon after, the Qian family's pitiful screams rang out: "Ahhhhh! Help!"

Some who had been observing from the shadows for a long time begged for mercy: "Spare me! I'm willing to give up 30% of the profits, and I'm also willing to plant a spiritual imprint! Uh…!"

Unfortunately, it's too late.

Ruan Yu had already given them a chance.

These people are dawdling and not coming out; they're asking for trouble, they can't blame her.

The Black Iron Guards were like machines, with only one thing on their minds—kill!

Wherever they went, not a single survivor was left!

The Silver Guardians were even more terrifying in their destructive power, destroying houses in the process.

A moment.

Of the vast Qian mansion, aside from those who had not yet returned home, only the people in the front hall were still alive.

None of these people dared to utter a sound; they all huddled together, trembling like leaves.

Previously, Ruan Yu had spoken to them in a gentle and courteous manner, leading them to mistakenly believe she was easy to talk to and manipulate. Now it seems... she's simply a devil!

In just a moment, more than a thousand lives of the Qian family were lost at her hands!

"Repair the collapsed house, and also change the signboard at the entrance. I'll be moving in later." Ruan Yu realized she couldn't keep scaring the Qian family like this.

He then softened his tone and spoke to them.

She moved her fingers and retrieved the Silver Guardian back into the Hundred Ghost Banner.

Everyone gasped again.

This woman is too bizarre! She can actually turn people into "puppets"!

Little did they know that these were not puppets at all, but Silver Guardians from the Autumn Phoenix Continent, possessing independent thought.

However, Ruan Yu was indeed proficient in some puppetry techniques.

Ruan Yu is gone.

The Qian family could finally breathe a sigh of relief: "So, should we still run?"

"What are you trying to run for? The soul imprint has already been planted. If we dare to run, she'll kill us!"

"Too many people have already died, so let's just honestly make money for her."

Sadness comes quickly, but goes even faster.

The Qian family sent a group of people to find someone to repair the house, while the rest returned to the shop and continued their daily routine.

As evening approached, Ruan Yu emerged from the space, and the house had already been built.

She casually walked into a courtyard. Although it wasn't spacious, the layout and furnishings inside were to her liking.

"My lord, this courtyard is too small. You are of noble birth, please stay in that courtyard!" As Ruan Yu walked into the house, a member of the Qian family hurriedly jumped out and flattered her.

"I want this one."

"……All right."

Ruan Yu certainly wouldn't stay here; her demand for accommodation was just a pretext.

The door closed, and I entered the space.

Continue refining weapons and medicines.

……

Inside one of the Qian family's restaurants.

Go up to the room.

Xu Lian was meditating when she suddenly coughed up blood. She slowly opened her blue eyes, wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth. "Useless thing, dying so quickly! And even alerting Xiang Long!"
