Jiang Linfeng was truly startled by the demon that suddenly appeared beside Zhou Fan.
"Wh-what is that thing? Why does it have four eyes?"
Upon seeing this lowly human dare to call her "what thing," Meng Li immediately spoke in human tongue, unceremoniously retorting,
"Lowly human, you truly are short-sighted. This Venerable One is from the ancient exotic beast — Desire Demon race. What are you? How dare you speak disrespectfully to This Venerable One?"
Jiang Linfeng had originally wanted to get angry, but as soon as his eyes met Meng Li's four eyes, he felt a shiver.
Not long after, layers of illusions appeared before Jiang Linfeng's eyes. Just as Jiang Linfeng's mind was about to be controlled by Meng Li, Zhou Fan calmly said,
"Meng Li, that's enough, stop."
"Yes, Master." Meng Li heard Zhou Fan's words, immediately withdrew her Divine Ability, and then obediently stood to the side.
After a good while, Jiang Linfeng finally came to his senses. He looked at Zhou Fan and said in shock, "Brother, this demon... this Desire Demon actually has means to control people's minds. It truly is impossible to guard against."
"However, why do I always have a sense of déjà vu about this controlled situation?"
"It seems... it seems I was controlled around half a year ago when I married Murong Qing." Jiang Linfeng rubbed his head, recalling.
"During that time, I was muddle-headed every day, and like one possessed, I married that songstress Murong Qing. Although she truly is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, it's impossible for me to marry a songstress."
"Brother, do you know what connection the evil demon that controlled me has with this Desire Demon?"
"Linfeng Xiong, this is a long story. I only learned the inside story not long ago."
"Actually, the demon that controlled you is Meng Li's older sister. It is also a Desire Demon..."
After listening to Zhou Fan's detailed explanation, Jiang Linfeng suddenly realized, "So Murong Qing was just a pawn casually found by that Desire Demon Mengxue. Its purpose was to catalyze and amplify the various desires within my Kang Wang Residence, and incidentally, to effortlessly acquire the resources of my Kang Wang Residence."
"No wonder strange things have been happening in the Kang Wang Residence lately. Alas, so that's how it is."
Jiang Linfeng knew that Zhou Fan had no need to lie to him, after all, Zhou Fan had already controlled a Desire Demon.
So Jiang Linfeng relaxed and said, "Brother, it seems you already have a candidate for the position of Kang Wang of the Kang Wang Residence."
Zhou Fan nodded and said, "I think Jiang Shiliu is a good choice."
"You mean Old Six, ah? Alright, then it's him." Jiang Linfeng knew that after his death, who the Kang Wang was didn't matter at all.
Because no matter which of his sons became the new Kang Wang, they were destined to become a Puppet after taking the position. Only the child in Jiang Qingzhi's womb would be the true master of the Kang Wang Residence in the future.
Of course, from the moment Zhou Fan gained control of the Desire Demon, the entire Kang Wang Residence was essentially his to command.
"Alas, I never thought I would live to see such... a creature with inconceivable abilities. It truly is a long life indeed."
Jiang Linfeng sighed with great emotion, suddenly feeling a bit tired.
What good was a Mortal spending a lifetime in intrigue and power struggles?
In the face of power that transcended the mundane and defied logic, his so-called Kang Wang was truly not much stronger than an ant on the ground.
"Alas, Brother, I am old. I entrust Qingzhi to you. As for Murong Qing and my good-for-nothing sons, you may deal with them as you please."
After Jiang Linfeng finished speaking, as if finally unburdening himself of a heavy load, he slowly turned and walked away.
"Linfeng Xiong..."
Zhou Fan looked at Jiang Linfeng's somewhat desolate back. He knew that, stimulated by the extraordinary event, Jiang Linfeng had completely handed over the Kang Wang Residence to him.
Linfeng Xiong, rest assured and go.
I will definitely take good care of your wife and daughter for you.
I will also leave you a few Bloodlines of your descendants.
Just as Zhou Fan was making a solemn promise in his heart, Meng Li's voice suddenly rang in Zhou Fan's ear.
"Master, the desire seed I buried in Ye Fan has reacted."
"Ye Fan, he truly is, as you expected, preparing to do that kind of thing."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Fan's face immediately broke into a bright, sunny smile.
When he had previously read parts of Ye Fan's plot, he had determined that Ye Fan was a selfish and immoral protagonist.
So, after learning Ye Fan's location through Jiang Shi San, Zhou Fan sent Meng Li to find Ye Fan, and then had Meng Li bury a desire seed in him.
The desire seed is colorless and formless, a Bloodline secret art from Meng Li's Bloodline Legacy. This spell can only be used on creatures whose cultivation Realm is lower than one's own.
Its effect is that the observer can constantly perceive the changes in desire of the creature with the buried desire seed, and when needed, the observer can also observe every action of that creature through the desire seed.
Zhou Fan had been in the Kang Wang Residence for so many days, so he had naturally met Kang Wang Consort Murong Qing.
Upon seeing Murong Qing's inhuman figure and top-tier beauty, Zhou Fan guessed that the Son of Destiny Ye Fan would definitely not let go of this original Consort.
Moreover, by interrogating Jiang Shi San, Zhou Fan also confirmed that Ye Fan indeed had strong thoughts about the Kang Wang Consort.
However, Zhou Fan had originally thought that Ye Fan would wait until Jiang Linfeng's death before making a move, but he didn't expect Ye Fan to be so impatient, planning to do that kind of thing in broad daylight.
As a true gentleman, Zhou Fan naturally could not stand to see such a thing happen.
Moreover, I just promised Linfeng Xiong that I would take good care of his wife, ah.
Thinking of Murong Qing's eyes, which held disdain and contempt for every man she looked at, and her alluring figure that almost only appeared in comics (the proper kind).
Zhou Fan felt his Nine Yang Body suddenly heat up.
At the same time, inside Kang Wang Consort Murong Qing's small courtyard.
Murong Qing was currently lying languidly and casually on a mat covered with a thin quilt, her voluptuous figure outlining curves that made one's Bloodline surge.
"Madam, your maid recently heard that Young Master Jiang and Young Master Jiang Shi San encountered a wolf pack attack while out for a stroll. All the First-Rate masters protecting them died in battle, and Young Master Jiang and the others were also completely annihilated."
The maid Xiao Huan said, feeding Murong Qing fruit.
"Heh, good riddance." Murong Qing said with disdain, "Filthy creatures like men should all die, every single one of them."
"Madam, you're speaking too absolutely."
"Disgusting people like Young Master Jiang certainly deserve to die, but there are still good men in this world."
"There isn't a single good man!" Murong Qing's pearly teeth parted slightly, and after swallowing the grape Xiao Huan fed her, she said through gritted teeth.
"Xiao Huan, you've been by my side since I studied at the White Jade Pavilion. Don't you know what kind of creatures men are?"
"There really weren't any good men in the Kang Wang Residence before, but..." Xiao Huan said, her face slightly red.
"A few days ago, I went to see Young Miss Jiang Qingzhi's wedding banquet. The groom on that high platform was truly like an immortal."
"I think a handsome man like him must be the good man of legend."
