On the third floor of Qinglong Residence, Li Mu looked at the dust on the ground and used a few dust-removing spells to clean the floor spotless.

A few minutes ago, the hall was filled with hundreds of people, but now, apart from a few pools of molten iron left by melting metal, it appears empty and quiet.

Because the main gate was locked, Li Mu didn't want the hassle of breaking it down, and he didn't plan to go downstairs. Instead, he grabbed his second uncle's belt and jumped out of the third-floor window.

After settling Li Hongjun in the back seat, Li Mu first channeled some spiritual energy into Li Hongjun's body to help stabilize his mind, and then casually pressed his sleep acupoint.

A few minutes later, Li Mu skillfully drove the car onto the road home.

When he got home, he didn't wake his second uncle, but instead carried him directly into the bedroom on the west side of the second floor.

As far as I can remember, although Li Hongjun has returned less often in recent years, the bedroom has been kept, and Aunt Xia regularly dusts it.

After settling Li Hongjun in, it was already past midnight.

Li Mu entered the study, activated his spiritual sense to its maximum, and carefully scanned the area around the villa.

They didn't find anything unusual, like being followed, so they turned on the computer on the table to look up information about the Chen family.

.

Meanwhile, in the VIP suite of the Jiangcheng Tianhao Hotel, Wang Jun, who was nearly forty years old, was chatting obsequiously with a young man in his early twenties.

The young man was Chen Jiaxiong, who was less than 1.7 meters tall, weighed 180 pounds, and had a broad back and thick waist.

This guy was born with a sinister appearance and an eccentric personality. He also had a thumb-sized black mole under his eye, shaped like a teardrop, which made him look unusually gloomy.

Wang Jun had no idea that he had escaped a disaster.

Little did they know that all the other leaders and core members of the Four Triads had already died.

If we were to say that the most prestigious member of the Four Triads is the Old Continent, then the continent itself is the most prestigious.

So, right now, the most popular one is Wang Jun. Wherever he goes, people fawn over him and call him Fourth Master.

It's natural to be happy when someone calls you "Grandpa".

How many people like him, who joined the Four Triads midway through their careers and still managed to rise to their current status, are there?

In the underworld, besides being good at fighting, getting things done, and being able to handle things effectively, the most important thing is to be smart.

.

A while ago, the Sihehui, the leading local underground organization, watched a good show.

The fourth young master of the Chen family from Yanjing arrived in Jiangcheng and nearly beat the son of Li Jianjun, the richest man in Jiangcheng, to death.

Then, the brothers Li Jianjun and Li Hongjun used their abilities, both openly and secretly, to find someone to avenge their son.

This kind of battle between gods, where the little devils take a backseat, is something the Four Triads are not even worthy of mention.

As a result, the driver of the fourth young master of the Chen family came looking for him.

Everyone disagreed with taking on this task, but I insisted on doing it myself.

The matter was handled very well. On the same day, the richest couple died in a car accident, and shortly afterward, the driver who caused the accident also died of a heart attack in his cell.

The Chen family was very satisfied, and the fourth young master of the Chen family was even more satisfied. Good things were just coming their way.

The richest man in Jiangcheng died unexpectedly, leaving behind billions of assets, which have now become easy targets.

This large and tempting piece of meat has made various forces envious, especially the local forces who have long coveted it.

Recently, the richest man's car accident was finally determined to be an accident, and the delicious fatty meat has finally reached the best time to be cooked and served.

However, all the forces that coveted and coveted it remained silent, not daring to make a move.

Because the Li family and the Chen family from Yanjing appeared in Jiangcheng at the same time.

The triads and Wang Jun himself were fortunate enough to get a share of the spoils because of their efficient work.

.

"Ding-dong! Ding-dong!"

The two were chatting in the room when they heard the doorbell ring. Wang Jun quickly got up to open the door.

"Oh! Teacher Shu, you've finally arrived! Come in quickly."

The door opened, and two stunningly beautiful women stood outside. Wang Jun reached out and pulled the two reluctant people into the room.

"Come on! Let me introduce you. This is Xiong Shao from Yanjing, and these two are Teacher Shu and his student from our Zhongyuan Art School."

After Wang Jun finished his introduction, he glared at the two beautiful women with a strong sense of warning.

They only put on a smiling face after Teacher Shu and her students greeted Xiong Shao.

"Alright, my introduction is complete, it's time to go. Teacher Shu, Young Master Xiong has some unique insights into the development and research of human body art, could you please help clarify some of his doubts? I'm going to take my leave now."

After Wang Jun finished speaking, he walked out and gently closed the door behind him.

It must be said that Wang Jun is quite a talent to be able to describe pimping in such a fresh and elegant way.

.

Li Mu had already learned from Lu Dazhou that the Li family's assets were being targeted.

However, some people haven't come forward yet, so he can't just offer them up voluntarily.

Li Mu, sitting in front of his computer scrolling through his screen, found that there was very little information available about the Chen family; most of it consisted of historical accounts praising and glorifying them.

So, I turned off the computer and prepared to practice.

To his dismay, due to the improved version of the health-preserving soup, although he quickly advanced to the third level of Qi Refining, he also drained the spiritual energy within a ten-mile radius.

If a cultivator cannot even continue their cultivation, it becomes extremely boring.

In my previous life, when there were no resources or environment for cultivation, I could do other things.

For example, he has dabbled in alchemy, weapon crafting, talisman making, array formation, and even physiognomy.

Now, having been reborn into this world for less than a month, I lack the conditions for such comprehensive exploration due to limitations in cultivation and resources.

Li Mu was somewhat nostalgic for the days he spent hiking in Longmo Mountain. If it weren't for his second uncle being at home, he would have really wanted to go to some great mountains and marshes to seek opportunities.

Bored, Li Mu suddenly thought of the bead in his sea of ​​consciousness.

Previously, I couldn't retrieve it because my cultivation level wasn't high enough, but now that I have the strength of the third level of Qi Refining, I can give it a try.

With just a thought, a golden bead the size of a sesame seed appeared in his palm.

.

Looking at the bead in his palm, Li Mu felt a connection to it, and sensed its extraordinary nature.

Another thought struck, and the bead, like a magical artifact, shrank to the size of a fingertip.

Li Mu could sense that as his cultivation level increased, the bead would grow larger, without any limit.

If the bead can grow infinitely large, then it is far more than just a magical artifact.

Could it become a small world? The thought of this possibility made Li Mu's heart burn with excitement.

Then, he opened his divine sense to the fullest and scanned the bead, discovering that its surface was covered with restrictions.

This kind of restriction was a high-level restriction that Li Mu had never seen before. Having lived two lives, Li Mu felt that no one could set up such a restriction.

So, could it be a natural restriction on the bead? If it is a natural restriction, then we can be sure that this bead is a small world.

I carry my own little world with me! Just thinking about it makes me so excited.

Li Mu's current mood can no longer be described as joyful or excited; he's practically bursting with excitement.

After calming his mind, Li Mu held the golden bead in his hands and placed it in his dantian, beginning to meditate and refine it.

If he could refine even just one percent of it, he would be able to enter the bead and explore its interior.

Who knows, a naturally formed bead might contain a cosmic treasure.

Two hours later, it was broad daylight outside.

Li Mu, who was originally full of motivation, had to give up refining.

He knew that with his current cultivation level, even if he refined it for thousands of years, he would not be able to refine even one-thousandth of the bead.

The will follows the heart, and the pearl is absorbed into the body.

Li Mu put the bead back into his sea of ​​consciousness and tried to refine it with his divine sense. To his surprise, it actually worked.

A quarter of an hour later, Li Mu once again gave up on refining his divine sense.

Because he sensed movement in the second-floor room; his second uncle had woken up.
