The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Tang Rao blanked for a second, then saw Lu Tianhao in the crowd.

Seeing Lu Tianhao, Tang Rao felt at ease. Dealing with this dimwit with limited brain capacity was quite simple.

As for Zhou Wenmo, his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Lord Dongfang, why are you barging into my room?" Zhou Wenmo asked. Of course, Zhou Wenmo was well aware that Dongfang Lu was with the Lu Family, and it was only logical for Lu Tianhao to bring Dongfang Lu here.

Dongfang Lu was someone with whom Zhou Wenmo had little interaction, only knowing him to be rather sly.

"Apologies, if there has been any offense, I ask for Lord Wen Mo's understanding. However, the matter is urgent, and I cannot concern myself with niceties," Dongfang Lu said coldly, his gaze lingering on Tang Rao's face.

"Urgent matters, huh? Now, I am indeed curious, Lord Dongfang, what matter is so urgent that it cannot wait?" Zhou Wenmo asked.

"Arresting someone!" Dongfang Lu reached out a hand, pointing directly at Tang Rao, "This person is suspected of selling confidential information of our Bounty Hall, hence, he must be captured."

Zhou Wenmo's frown deepened.

Dongfang Lu held a high position in the Bounty Hall, responsible for its safety affairs, including information security.

If Dongfang Lu insisted that Tang Rao was selling Bounty Hall's secrets, then the problem would not be easily resolved.

Such matters could either be a big deal or trivial.

"Mr. Dongfang, do you have evidence?" Zhou Wenmo asked.

"Of course, there is evidence. However, Lord Wen Mo oversees reception affairs, so there's no need for you to intervene with the security of the Bounty Hall," Dongfang Lu said, his gaze dark and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

What a joke. How many times have I used this tactic? When has it not been successful?

First, I'll arrest the person and take him back. Once back, he'll be a rabbit on the chopping board, ready to be handled at will.

Even if he's killed, it wouldn't be a big issue. This is the Land of Immortals, who cares if you live or die!

Naturally, Lu Tianhao was the one who grinned most gleefully at this moment, looking provocatively at Tang Rao.

You think you're rich? You think you're impressive? Come on, let's see you act tough now.

"This just got interesting," Tang Rao stepped forward, looking at Dongfang Lu.

"Interesting? You're selling Bounty Hall's secrets. I'll see how interesting you find it in a while!" Dongfang Lu snorted coldly, then waved his hand, "Come, take control of him, take him away!"

"Holy shit, everyone stop right there!" Tang Rao suddenly roared.

Tang Rao's voice was loud, and everyone in the room was stunned, obviously taken aback by his shout.

"Xiao Yun, whoever dares to come at me, I'll knock them dead!" Tang Rao pulled out some chocolates and placed them in Xiao Yun's hands.

"Alright!" Xiao Yun grabbed the chocolates and stood in front of Tang Rao, arms akimbo, with an explosive aura.

Ninth Level Immortal Energy surged tumultuously.

"What the…" Zhou Yunmo cursed under his breath. What the hell is this? This little girl is barely fourteen or fifteen, right? Ninth Level Immortal? What a joke!

Of course, Zhou Yunmo wasn't the only one with widened eyes; Dongfang Lu was shocked too.

Dongfang Lu even felt a headache coming on. Fourteen years old, Ninth Level Immortal, damn it, what kind of monster are you? Where in the world did this freak come from?

Lu Tianhao said that bastard was rubbish, huh? This is what he calls rubbish? A fourteen or fifteen-year-old at the ninth level of Luo Xian popping out, such a monster would only possibly exist within the top-tier powerful forces.

A fourteen-year-old Luo Xian of the ninth level, with this kind of talent, might reach Immortal Monarch before twenty.

An Immortal Monarch before twenty, just the thought of it sends shivers down the spine.

"Come on, come up here! I'm not in a great mood, killing two would cheer me up!" Xiao Yun said.

Tang Rao: "..."

"I really must be barking mad, Bounty Hall is damn outrageous. Had I known, I wouldn't have bothered getting a card, not to mention spending a billion, what a dump! Talking about selling Bounty Hall's secrets, how much could that junk fetch? Don't say I didn't show respect to Bounty Hall, if I wanted to, I could buy the entire Bounty Hall." Tang Rao spoke with disdain, of course, it was all about acting tough at this moment.

Dongfanglu was genuinely a bit intimidated, casting a wicked eye toward Lu Tianhao.

What kind of person have you provoked? Do you have to be such a screw-up?

"Lord Dongfang, I think there might be some misunderstanding. Just now, Mr. Tang Rao issued a bounty worth a billion. Do you think he would engage in the trade of selling secrets?" Zhou Wenmo added.

A billion for a job?

Dongfanglu swallowed hard, damn it, Lu Tianhao, you idiot, don't you check backgrounds?

The person who issues such a task, could they be simple?

"Tang Rao, stop yapping with them, I'll just wipe this place out. If I can't handle it, let my sister do it, and annihilate this so-called Bounty City with a single slap. What kind of place is this, always yapping on and on, it's so annoying I could die." Xiao Yun said irritably.

"Let's not bother with that. Sister Ming Yue is too busy. Besides, these people are all mediocre at best; you alone are enough, Xiao Yun." Tang Rao waved his hand, inwardly giving Xiao Yun a thumbs up for the assist.

...

"Well then, Mr. Tang Rao, this might indeed be a misunderstanding, I should investigate further." Dongfanglu directly chickened out, how could he not? Just this girl named Xiao Yun wasn't someone they could handle.

The strongest in the entire Bounty City seems to be the City Lord, but even the City Lord is just an eighth-level Luo Xian.

Which is to say, there's no one in the entire Bounty City who could be a match for Xiao Yun.

"It's probably a misunderstanding between us, but there's no misunderstanding between him and me." Tang Rao stretched out his hand, pointing directly at Lu Tianhao, who was ready to slip away.

Seeing Tang Rao pointing at him, Lu Tianhao suddenly panicked.

A ninth-level Luo Xian has appeared, this time he might have really screwed up big time.

"Mr. Lu Tianhao, come here, let's get things straight. I didn't provoke or bother you, but you keep coming at me. Alright, since you're so keen to butt heads with me, I'll indulge you," Tang Rao said, grinning.

"It's a misunderstanding, truly a misunderstanding. Tang Rao, I was just following to have a look. It's all Dongfanglu who said you were the problem. I really didn't know anything." Lu Tianhao instantly threw Dongfanglu under the bus.

Dongfanglu clenched his teeth, even though he's from the Lu Family, being thrown under the bus like this really irked him.

I, Dongfanglu, don't mind taking the fall for the Lu Family, but for Lu Tianhao, forget it. Carrying the can for an idiot makes you look like one too.

"Is that so?"

"Yes, yes, that's exactly it. It was all Dongfanglu trying to deal with you. I was completely clueless. Well, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving." Lu Tianhao said as he tried to leave.

"Whoosh!" Before Tang Rao could issue an order, Xiao Yun dashed out and in a blink was back in front of Tang Rao, and of course, she brought Lu Tianhao back with her.

Looking at Tang Rao so close by, Lu Tianhao was entirely petrified.
