Imperial henchmen? Never been struck by the sword of the Six Doors (a secret police agency).

Nighttime, six doors, the hall.

"Is everything taken care of?" Li Junsu raised an eyebrow as he looked at the two people who walked in.

“It’s all taken care of. I’ve also mobilized all the remaining personnel,” He Chang said.

Li Junsu nodded upon hearing this, "They really have to be locals."

"You're quite talented," Li Junsu said, praising He Chang.

"You flatter me, you flatter me." He Chang cupped his hands in a somewhat modest manner.

Li Junsu didn't realize that He Chang was also a master at creating melodramatic plot twists.

......

Sure enough, in the days that followed, the woman and her bizarre "relatives" opened the door to a new world for Fang Wen and Shi Huai.

To Fang Wen, this woman was pitiful, yet possessed a tenacious vitality that deeply moved him.

"Her relatives are all mentally ill, so why doesn't she just run away?" Su An said, looking at He Chang's script with a somewhat cringe-worthy expression.

"What do you know? Fang Wen saved the woman like a god descending to earth. The power of love made him feel reborn. That's love," He Chang said exaggeratedly.

"Isn't this love story a bit too outrageous?" Su An said speechlessly.

Su An was speechless. Is this what love is like?

"If your boss were in this situation, what would he do?" He Chang suddenly asked with great interest.

“Kill all her relatives and tell the outside world it was an accident,” Su An said casually.

He Chang's interest waned; he felt that Li Junsu was more likely to break the woman's neck.

“I think your boss would just snap this woman’s neck,” Su An offered the opposite opinion.

“You’re right.” Su An nodded in deep agreement.

"Won't Fang Dayi and the others have any doubts?" Su An asked in turn.

"No, they also started from humble beginnings, and they probably all deeply understand these eccentric relatives," He Chang explained smugly, stroking his chin.

Otherwise, why would he do this?

"Alright, tonight's scene is... being harassed by a drunkard." He Chang took out a small notebook and muttered to himself.

Su An scratched his head; he had lost even more interest in love.

"It's still best to follow the boss," Su sighed.

.......

Nighttime in the bustling city.

The woman who had been harassed by the drunkard thanked Shi Huai, who had come to her rescue, in a somewhat weak voice.

He even advised Shi Huai not to kill the drunkard. (His accomplice couldn't die.)

For Shi Huai, this woman, though frail, was kind-hearted and compassionate towards everyone, bringing a glimmer of light to his heart amidst the darkness.

"It has to be you. This guy surnamed Shi... will probably fall for her even faster than Fang Wen." Su An said, watching the hero save the beauty below from the teahouse.

"Most people are like this: the more something is the opposite of themselves, the newer and more they like it, and then they end up getting pricked all over."

Then... he became a complete mess, and then went on to harm others, all while justifying himself by saying, "I wasn't like this before." It was as if he had an excuse for being so rotten. He Chang looked down at the teahouse below, a long-lost trace of melancholy appearing in his eyes, and slowly began to speak.

"You used to be like this too?" Su An asked curiously, looking down at the crowd.

"No, that's not true. I used to be a chivalrous person, protecting the peace of the people. Now I'm just planning to take a good rest. Do you believe me?" He Chang put away his emotions and said with a smile.

"I believe you, you're pretty amazing." Su An nodded with some surprise and praised him.

"?" He Chang froze for a moment.

“My boss is quick to kill entire families, but he’s very good to me. He’s definitely not a good person outside, but he’s my… boss.” Su An stretched and said.

He knew, of course, that Li Junsu would continue to do this, and would only become more radical, but so what? No matter how many lives were lost outside, in Su An's eyes, none of them were as valuable as his own boss's life.

He Chang used to be a hero, but now he's a coward. That doesn't mean he was a coward before. Su An was surprisingly good at distinguishing between these things.

"The Six Doors... how interesting." He Chang murmured to himself.

"Let's go, I'll treat you to a late-night snack." He Chang stood up and said.

"Really?"

"Fidelity."

"Welcome Building".

"Damn it, you're robbing me!"

"You can't even afford this?"

"Okay, eat up, I'll eat you until you die."

.......

In the days that followed, Fang Wen's relationship with the woman quickly blossomed.

Just when Fang Wen was about to marry the woman, she said that she was not worthy of him and was willing to be his concubine to accompany him, which moved Fang Wen to tears.

Fang Dayi also learned about his son's romantic escapades and was quite proud to say that he was indeed his son, having bewitched girls at such a young age.

In particular, Shi Sheng's adopted son was also interested in this woman, but the woman clearly preferred her own son.

Fang Dayi can be said to have really kicked Shi Sheng hard.

Because of this incident, Shi Huai's conflict with Fang Wen intensified.

Juyilou also began to show cracks due to the struggle between Fang Wen and Shi Huai.

The elite forces of the Fang family and the Shi family also began to enter Juyi Tower, and Juyi Tower descended into chaos.

But the real upheaval was... Fang Wen died.

Shi Huai and the woman have disappeared without a trace. All Fang Dayi saw was Fang Wen's corpse.

Fang Wen died the day before New Year's Eve.

Fang Dayi has gone mad.

That was his only son.

Shi Sheng's vision went black. He would immediately cut off any proxy wars that occurred.

But Shi Huai acted too quickly, without any warning, just like when he worked for Shi Sheng, leaving no trace.

Using the most convenient tool, he turned the tables and stabbed himself in the back.

The tool has devoured its master.

"Have everyone set up in the suburbs. I'll be there right away," Shi Sheng ordered, biting his tongue and spitting out a mouthful of blood.

There is no possibility of reconciliation in this matter. Fang Dayi said that Fang Wen was spoiled and took it extremely seriously.

Once this happens, it's a fight to the death; there's no room for brotherhood.

I cannot possibly give Fang Dayi a child in return.

"Useless!" Shi Sheng slammed his fist on the table in anger, cursing.

Then, Shi Sheng immediately left and headed to the outskirts of the city.

It's better to set traps in the suburbs; we need to hurry.

.......

"Huan'er?" Shi Huai asked, somewhat puzzled, as this was different from the route he had originally planned.

Then, Shi Huai seemed to see something.

"Why is the person Huan'er is pulling...headless?" Shi Huai's last thought ended there.

"Master He, the reward." Huan'er released her grip, not even glancing at the corpse, and spoke with a smile.

“Go to the Six Doors. After tonight, you’ll have a courtyard in Lingnan,” He Chang said.

He knew that Huan'er must have a backup plan.

Just as he also had a backup plan to cause Huan'er's sudden death.

This is why He Chang sought out Huan'er; she knew the consequences, yet still accepted the task with a smile.

This is a lunatic.

"Okay." Huan'er replied with a smile and walked towards the Six Doors.

"Let's go." Su An also turned and left.

"Go ahead, I have something to attend to." He Chang looked towards the outskirts of the city and took out a talisman.

It's time to call in reinforcements.

......

Six doors, a large hall.

As Huan'er entered the hall, the man sitting in the main seat opened his eyes.

Huan'er was momentarily dazed; she seemed to see an evil dragon...laughing.

Li Junsu stood up and picked up the long sword beside him.

"I hope you're a smart person. I won't mistreat smart people," Li Junsu said calmly as he walked past Huan'er.

"I know the gravity of the matter," Huan'er said softly, suppressing her trembling body.

"That would be best." A cold glint flashed, and Li Junsu walked out the door.

Huan'er stretched out her hand, looked at the strands of hair in her palm, and collapsed to the ground.

She thought she was going to die.

"monster."
