Villains in Film and Television: Starting with Yang Ke in "The Golden Age"

"I see. Since you are guests of Baijian Manor, why not stay at my Tianxia Society for a couple more days so that I can do my best to be a good host?"

Xiong Ba wanted to find out Yang Ke's true situation and also wanted to keep this helper, so he invited Yang Ke to stay.

“Very well, I’ve long heard that under Chief Xiong’s leadership, the Tianxia Society has become the number one society in the world. Then I’ll accept the honor without hesitation.”

Yang Ke wanted to see if Xiong Ba knew what was good for him. If he really let You Ruo get close to him, things would be much easier.

"Sure, this way please."

Upon hearing that Yang Ke had agreed to stay as a guest, Xiong Ba immediately led him to the banquet hall of the World Society.

"Boss, what brings you here?"

Wen Chou Chou is a steward in the World Society. When he saw Xiong Ba leading a young man into the banquet hall, he quickly came over to inquire about the situation.

"Yes, this is a guest from Baijian Manor. You can call him Senior Yang."

"Go arrange a banquet; I want to have a good drink with Senior Yang."

Xiong Ba usually acts like he's second to none, but when he addresses Yang Ke as "senior" in front of Wen Chou Chou, he naturally knows what to do.

"Yes, sir."

Although Wen Chou Chou was shocked, she still politely bowed to Yang Ke and then went to make the arrangements.

But when he arrived at the kitchen of the World Society, his heart was still pounding.

Before he became the ruler of the world, Xiong Ba was already arrogant. Now, he actually calls a young man "senior." How could this not surprise Wen Chou Chou?

Before the dishes were even served, Yang Ke started chatting with Xiong Ba about everyday things.

Xiong Ba's idea was simple: since they were not enemies, they should treat each other with courtesy.

Yang Ke wanted to demonstrate his strength and goodwill, hoping that Xiong Ba would give him You Ruo in order to win him over. Or, if all else failed, he could at least give him Kong Ci first.

Upon learning that Yang Ke had just emerged from seclusion after many years and had come to visit out of curiosity about the World Society, Xiong Ba immediately had a plan.

Predictions are just that—predictions. But ultimately, it's up to us to make things happen.

If Yang Ke could lend him a hand, it wouldn't be long before he conquered the world. With this in mind, Xiong Ba suspended his attempts to probe in this regard.

"Senior Yang, this way please."

"This is where Chief Xiong usually cultivates. This is the VIP pavilion next to us, which has been built for a long time but has never been occupied. Your arrival today has truly made this place shine."

After Yang Ke finished his meal with Xiong Ba, Xiong Ba asked Wen Chou Chou to take Yang Ke to rest, and that Wen Chou Chou would show him around the World Society the next day.

"You're welcome. It's fine to leave it here. I prefer a quieter place."

Yang Ke waved his hand, not wanting to see Wen Chou Chou.

"Okay, then I'll take my leave."

Wen Chou Chou had seen all sorts of people over the years, and many disliked him, so he naturally didn't show any anger. He cheerfully arranged for a few maids to wait downstairs for Yang Ke's instructions, while he went back to see Xiong Ba.

However, at this time, Xiong Ba was not in his usual training room, but in the forbidden area of ​​the World Society, the Lakeside Pavilion.

This is where Xiong Ba's only daughter, You Ruo, lives. Xiong Ba usually keeps her here and doesn't allow her to run around.

The reason is that she is the daughter of Xiong Ba. Although Xiong Ba doesn't seem to care much about her, he actually cares about her a lot.

Xiong Ba has been fighting in the martial arts world. If his daughter were to show her face in public, she would definitely become his weakness. That's why Xiong Ba has always let her live here.

"Dad, I want to go out for a walk."

When You Ruo saw Xiong Ba arrive, she immediately expressed her thoughts.

Over the years, she has watched her father, Xiong Ba, rise to his current position step by step, while she has been imprisoned here. She has long wanted to regain her freedom and go out to see the world.

"can."

Xiong Ba readily agreed.

"kindness?"

"Father, you agreed?"

You Ruo originally thought that Xiong Ba would refuse, because it was almost ten years since the Mud Bodhisattva had predicted his fate, and Xiong Ba should not make any mistakes at this time, so why would he agree to her request?

"You can go out, but you must stay with someone. If there are any special circumstances, report to me. After a while, I will give you your freedom."

Xiong Ba then shared his thoughts.

He felt that with Yang Ke's temperament and strength, he could easily control his daughter, and it would be best to get news about Yang Ke from You Ruo.

As for whether You Ruo would betray him, Xiong Ba was very confident in himself.

Since the fortune telling from the clay Buddha ten years ago, everything has gone smoothly for him, so he naturally has no worries about this.

"Who?"

You Ruo was very curious.

"He's an unparalleled master. Don't have too many thoughts about him while you're around. Just see how he wants to treat you."

"Anyway, you just need to stay by his side and report to me what he's doing from time to time. When the time is right, you can live the life you want."

Xiong Ba didn't mention Yang Ke's situation, but instead planned to take You Ruo to see Yang Ke the next day.

The next day, when Xiong Ba brought You Ruo to Yang Ke, both You Ruo and Yang Ke were pleasantly surprised.

You Ruo thought she would have to serve someone the same age as her father, but after being imprisoned for so many years, she had resigned herself to her fate. But it turned out to be a young man like Yang Ke.

Yang Ke was quite pleased with Xiong Ba's understanding, as he no longer needed to go through the trouble of winning him over.

"Looks like you two have hit it off."

"Yang Ke, let me introduce you. This is my daughter, Youruo."

“You Ruo, this is Yang Ke, the master of Baijian Manor.”

Last night, Yang Ke told Xiong Ba to just call him by his name, and at the same time revealed that he was actually not that old. He had just emerged from years of seclusion with extremely high martial arts talent and came to the World Society out of curiosity.

"Alright, you young people can chat as you like. I still have some things to take care of within the gang. Let's have dinner together tonight."

Xiong Ba knew that Yang Ke, though young, was not easily fooled, so he decided it would be better to have You Ruo investigate his situation and left.

Today, the peerless city lord, Dugu Yifang, is visiting the World Alliance, and Xiong Ba is going to see what's going on.

Duan Lang is now just a handyman in the World Society. While serving wine, he thought about what he had talked about with Yang Ke yesterday. Lost in thought, he accidentally spilled wine on Xiong Ba's sleeve, which made Xiong Ba furious and want to kill him.

Fortunately, Nie Feng hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, which made Xiong Ba let Duan Lang go.

Thinking about how he had worked hard for the World Society for many years but was not valued by Xiong Ba, Duan Lang made up his mind to find Yang Ke and practice martial arts properly.

That night, Dugu Yifang came to persuade Duan Lang to leave, promising to help him restore the Duan family's reputation, but Duan Lang resolutely refused.

There were actually two reasons why Duan Lang refused. One was to stay because of Nie Feng's friendship. The other was that he discovered Yang Ke had become a distinguished guest of the World Society, and considering Yang Ke's strength, he naturally wouldn't go to such lengths to follow Dugu Yifang.

That evening, when Xiong Ba saw Yang Ke and You Ruo again, the two were chatting intimately together in the pavilion. Seeing this, Xiong Ba felt that destiny was on his side.

After all, even a master like Yang Ke was captivated by his daughter, so what in this world couldn't he control?
