My game even includes ancient times

Behind He Shi, He Yu slowly withdrew her hand, looking at the back of the child's thick black hair, and suddenly, for no reason, she had an urge to flick him on the head.

Fortunately, the system's interface suddenly flashed, interrupting her wicked idea.

He Yu stared blankly at the red glowing [Homeland] for a moment before realizing that it was A Leng calling her.

She abandoned any thought of staying to watch the spectacle and went straight in.

At the same time, in the courtyard where the Chu family lived, a wooden door that was invisible to ordinary people appeared out of thin air.

Immediately afterwards, the door was pushed open, and He Yu, who had been invisible, stepped out and landed on the ground.

Unlike the brightly lit front yard, only one lantern was lit in this small courtyard, hanging under the eaves and swaying in the cold wind.

It could only illuminate a small area, making it seem rather cold and desolate.

He Yu glanced at Xia Yuan and Chu Yunsi's room.

The room was lit, and a dim yellow light shone through the window. It was quiet, as if nothing had happened.

He Yu heard the sound of birds flapping their wings overhead. She looked up and saw A Leng spread her wings and gently land on her shoulder, beginning to preen her feathers.

He Yu turned her head to look at it: 'Where's Xiao He?'

Ah Leng's red eyes gleamed with an eerie dark light in the darkness.

It tilted its head to think, and after understanding its owner's meaning, it flew up again and flew out of the yard.

He Yu followed it.

A person and a bird darted swiftly along the path in the backyard, eventually stopping in front of a secluded courtyard.

A Leng fluttered her wings and landed on the courtyard wall. She first looked at the courtyard, then turned to look at He Yu, and then lowered her head and remained still.

Upon seeing this, He Yu knew they had arrived at their destination. Without hesitation, he went straight into the courtyard.

Push open the door and come out—

The moment He Yu landed, he came face to face with a masked man in black.

The two were at most half a meter apart, and He Yu could even see the white frost on his eyebrows.

! !

She barely managed to keep herself from making a sound, glanced at the bright red light shining through the main room window, immediately threw the door over, and flashed to the window, only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

There were no lights on inside. He Yu quietly peered through the window, but couldn't see anything.

You can faintly hear people talking, but they are deliberately lowering their voices, so it's hard to make out what they are saying.

He Yu blinked and exited the [Immersive] mode.

in reality.

He Yu opened her eyes, and after a couple of seconds of reaction, she looked down at her phone.

Tap the window on the screen, and the scene changes, revealing the interior of the room in full view.

There were three people in the dark room, one standing and two sitting. One of the two sitting was Zhong Heshan.

He changed his clothes and sat down in a chair with a sullen face.

Beside him, across a table, sat a man who looked to be in his thirties.

The man was handsome with narrow eyes. He wore a dark red robe, but despite it being the dead of winter, he held a closed white jade folding fan in his hand and tapped it absently in his palm.

Xiao He, dressed as a maid, stood in front of the two men, quietly reporting something.

[Xiao He: ...Chu Yunsi didn't drink the hangover soup. She fell into a deep sleep after returning to the room. Xia Yuan poured the soup out the window and put it behind the house. She gave Chu Yunsi a white pill, about the size of a soybean. I don't know what it is...]

Before Xiaohe could finish speaking, the man with the fan raised his hand to interrupt her.

Lou Jinyue: Sect Leader Zhong, my time is precious; I'm not here to listen to nonsense.

Zhong Heshan waved his hand, and Xiao He quickly left the room, closing the door tightly behind her.

[Zhong Heshan: I orchestrated the separation of Xia Yuan from Bai Yushen and Chu He. Now is the perfect opportunity to eliminate her. Sect Leader Lou, aren't you going to make your move? This banquet is about to end.]

Lou Jinyue: My targets are He Shi and Chu He. As for Xia Yuan… well, killing her would be a thankless task.

Lou Jinyue narrowed her eyes slightly and turned to look at Zhong Heshan.

Lou Jinyue: Besides, I didn't send many people this time, so it's difficult to spare any more manpower to deal with Xia Yuan. Why don't you ask Sect Leader Zhong for other help?

Zhong Heshan gritted his teeth in secret.

[Zhong Heshan: After the matter is accomplished, I am willing to give another 10% of the profits to Master Lou.]

[Lou Jinyue: One and a half percent. 】

Zhong Heshan: Sect Leader Lou, one-tenth is already the limit. You'd better know when to stop. If it weren't for the fact that this is my Heyang Sect's territory, and my sect's experts couldn't easily take action, we wouldn't need to trouble your sect at all...

In the darkness, he looked at Lou Jinyue, his face gradually turning grim, and he pressed his right hand against his abdomen.

He Yu, sitting in front of the screen, suddenly brightened up.

Oh ho, Lao Zhong is getting into it again!

Lou Jinyue: Oh dear, I was just saying. One success is one success, whatever Sect Leader Zhong says... Sect Leader Zhong, are you feeling unwell?

Zhong Heshan broke out in a cold sweat and stood up, clutching his abdomen.

[Zhong Heshan: I have urgent business to attend to and must take my leave first. Sect Leader Lou, you may handle the matter yourself. My men will be there to rescue the person in three quarters of an hour. Please be mindful of the time, Sect Leader Lou...]

He had barely finished speaking when he walked to the door, pushed it open, stepped out, and disappeared into the darkness.

Lou Jinyue unfolded her fan and fanned herself, looking at the door that hadn't been closed properly in her haste.

Lou Jinyue: What's the rush? Why didn't you close the door? Did you get your tail caught in the fox's tail?

He got up, walked to the door, and waved to the yard.

A masked man in black appeared in front of him and knelt down on one knee.

He Yu then discovered that there were actually more than a dozen men in black hiding in this small courtyard!

Lou Jinyue: Take five skilled fighters and go kill Xia Yuan. Someone will come to her aid in three quarters of an hour. Do not linger in the fight; escape immediately.

The man in black took the order and retreated.

Lou Jinyue waved again, and another man in black appeared.

Lou Jinyue: Two quarters of an hour later, she secretly sent someone to inform Bai Yushen, Chu He, and Xia Yuan of the attack. An ambush was set up on their inevitable route, and He Shi and Chu He were killed.

The man in black clasped his hands in a fist salute and retreated.

He Yu originally wanted to go and support Xia Yuan, but when he heard that he was going to ambush He Shi and the others, his raised finger paused.

The images on the screen continued to play.

Lou Jinyue fanned herself with a fan, gazing at the dim crescent moon in the sky.

A slender figure emerged from the darkness and stood quietly behind him.

Lou Jinyue: Chu He can die tonight, are you satisfied?

The shadowy figure behind him stirred, and a beautiful, snow-white hand emerged from the gap in the cloak, lifting the wide hood to reveal a charming and alluring face.

is her?

He Yu's eyes widened in surprise.

[Wei Buyu: Thank you, Sect Leader, for avenging me. I am deeply grateful.]

Lou Jinyue: You've been very obedient lately, this is a reward for you.

He withdrew his gaze from the moon, turned to face Wei Buyu, and lifted her chin with a finger, a hint of amusement flashing in his narrow eyes.

Lou Jinyue: It's cold outside, let's go back inside.
