So satisfying! The Great Demon King wiped out everyone equally!

Wang Shaodong had no time to dodge and was slammed into the door. The axe in his hand was knocked out of his grasp, arcing through the air before crashing into the wall.

Wang Shaodong screamed as he was slammed heavily onto the table, groaning in pain. The items on the table were scattered all over the floor with a clatter.

Wang Shaodong struggled to his feet, angrily shouting, "Who the hell are you? You kicked down my door!"

At this moment, Chen Lihua forgot her fear and quickly jumped off the bed, ran to Wang Shaodong's side, and helped him up.

When she saw that the person standing at the door was Wang Zhaodi, a hint of surprise appeared on her face, but it was quickly replaced by disdain.

"The lady of the house, Wang Zhaodi, has returned."

Upon hearing that it was Wang Zhaodi, Wang Shaodong immediately felt his confidence return. He stood up, supporting his back, spat at Cang Lan's clone, and cursed viciously, "Wang Zhaodi, you think you're so tough, huh? How did you get in here so late at night? You think you can scare people? Tell me! Were you kicked out by the Zhou family?"

Chen Lihua chimed in, "I think so too. How could the Zhou family possibly want a girl like you who is uneducated, ignorant, and has never even been to school?"

"Our Manyun is so cultured! She's proficient in everything from music and chess to calligraphy and painting. She even won a major prize in the last piano competition, and she's one of the best dancers in school. Unlike you, you're just a country bumpkin who can't stand up to anyone. You can't compare to our Manyun at all. If I were a member of the Zhou family, I wouldn't even give you a second glance!"

Canglan's clone stood silently at the door, a chilling smile on his face that sent shivers down one's spine.

"You're asking for it, hahahahahaha!"

Immediately afterwards, she pulled out a spiked club and, before Chen Lihua and Wang Shaodong inside the house could react, swung it violently, smashing it straight at Chen Lihua's face.

With a series of muffled thuds, Chen Lihua was instantly sent flying, crashing heavily into the wall. The powerful impact created a human-shaped dent in the wall before she fell to the ground like a lump of mud.

At this moment, Chen Lihua's face was a bloody mess. Her eyes were pierced by the spikes of the spiked club, and the flesh around the bloody holes was rolled outwards. Her mouth was pierced by the tip of the spiked club, and her teeth mixed with blood fell to the ground. She was rolling on the ground in pain and howling. Her voice was extremely miserable.

Wang Shaodong was terrified by what he saw and desperately retreated until he reached the table.

He frantically reached out and pulled the axe that had just been nailed to the table. His hands trembled as he pointed the axe at Canglan's clone and asked in a trembling voice, "Wang Zhaodi, what... what are you trying to do? We've raised you for 15 years, how could you do such a cruel thing?"

However, Canglan's clone remained unmoved, raising his spiked club and charging towards Wang Shaodong.

He swung the axe, sending it flying so that it embedded itself deeply into the wall not far away.

Immediately afterwards, the spiked club mercilessly slammed down on Wang Shaodong's body, each blow drawing blood. Wang Shaodong's upper body was instantly pierced through, and he screamed and howled in pain, his body twisting and struggling incessantly, trying to evade the attack, but all in vain.

"Don't worry, your whole family will be reunited with you soon!"

With a loud bang, Wang Shaodong's head exploded like a smashed watermelon, his brains and blood splattering everywhere, hitting the surrounding walls and the ground, and even splashing onto Cang Lan's face.

Although Chen Lihua was blind, she heard the terrifying sound and trembled all over, making whimpering sounds as she desperately shrank towards the corner of the wall.

"Back then...it wasn't us who replaced you, it was that...that old hag, if you want revenge, go find her..."

Canglan's clone snorted coldly and said in an icy voice, "Don't worry, she'll be joining you in a few days."

After saying that, he swung the spiked club again and smashed it down on Chen Lihua's head.

With a dull thud, Chen Lihua fell silent. Only two unrecognizable corpses remained on the ground, their blood pooling around them in a dark red stench.

Then, Canglan's clone summoned two balls of dark blue demonic flames, which landed precisely on the corpses of Chen Lihua and Wang Shaodong with a gentle toss.

The demonic flames instantly blazed fiercely, and in no time, the two corpses were burned to ashes, leaving only a thin layer of ash.

Immediately afterwards, Canglan threw their souls directly into the Judgment Furnace, erasing the traces on the ground.

Without any hesitation, he walked into Wang Tucheng's room and lay down on the bed for a nap.

……

On the other side, the Zhou family had breakfast together downstairs, a rare occasion for them.

Zhou Qiming ate absentmindedly, glancing at his mother from time to time, and barely touched his breakfast.

After Zhou Yanli and Zhou Yulan left, Zhou Qiming coughed lightly, put down his cutlery, leaned forward slightly, and looked at Cang Lan.

"Mom, wasn't it a bit too hasty for you to announce last night that Yu Lan is the next heir of the Zhou family? Why didn't you discuss it with us first?"

Cang Lan stopped what she was doing, looked up, and gave him a sharp look. "Who are you consulting with? You?"

Zhou Qiming was slightly taken aback, a hint of embarrassment flashing across his face, but he still forced himself to continue, "Even if you don't give me this opportunity, what about Yanli? He is your own grandson, who has received a good education by your side since he was a child. No matter how you look at it, he is more suitable than Yulan."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yue's face instantly darkened. She turned to look at Zhou Qiming, her eyes filled with anger, and said loudly, "Zhou Qiming, what are you saying? Are you implying that our daughter can't inherit the company? Zhou Yanli is fine, but Zhou Yulan isn't?"

Zhou Qiming was surprised by his wife's sudden outburst and quickly waved his hand, "Wife, you don't understand. Things in this company are complicated. In this business world, women face far more difficulties than men if they want to inherit a company."

Yu Lan is still too young and inexperienced. I'm doing this for the company's good.

“I am now the person in charge of the company, and I have my reasons for handing it over to whomever I want. If you really want me to change my mind, increase the profits of the company I entrusted to you by 30% this month. Otherwise, stop talking nonsense here.”

Canglan's eyes revealed an undeniable majesty as he stared directly at Zhou Qiming.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Qiming deflated like a punctured balloon, muttering under his breath, "If I could earn this much, why would I need to inherit your company?" His eyes were filled with helplessness and frustration, and he leaned back slightly in his chair.

"Alright, honey, Mom's right. Let's get this over with first. Besides, as the father, you know absolutely nothing about banquet etiquette. He told me long ago that he's not interested in managing the Zhou Group and feels he doesn't have the ability."

Now that Mom is willing to support Yanli's business venture and will also mentor Yulan, isn't this a win-win situation? We'll have two such outstanding children in the future; we should be secretly happy. Even if each of them gives you a little, you won't be able to spend it all.”

Shen Yue's tone carried a hint of persuasion, yet also seemed somewhat smug. She gently patted Zhou Qiming's hand, trying to calm him down.
