Realm of the Night God

Chapter 97: Plan

Although the news was somewhat overwhelming, Master Wu learned from it that Yang Haoran and his two companions were in trouble, and he also learned of their whereabouts.

Therefore, he immediately took action. With his status and position, dealing with such matters was as simple as making a phone call. Besides, Yang Haoran and his companions hadn't done anything wrong to begin with.

"Three, during this time, Old Man has invited you several times, but you haven't been willing to come over. Is it because I've offended you in some way?" Master Wu looked at Yang Haoran and his companions, smiling as he asked.

Indeed, Master Wu had invited Yang Haoran and his companions several times during this period, but none of them had accepted. Especially Ma Ling, who wasn't a local in Lecheng, but was invited by Master Wu. Yet Ma Ling wasn't even willing to stay at Master Wu's house, preferring to stay at a hotel instead, which was quite a headache for him.

"Master Wu, it's not what you think. My injuries haven't healed yet, so I haven't been able to go out during this time. Tonight is actually the first time," Yang Haoran explained with a smile.

"It's uncomfortable for me to stay at your place. I prefer to stay outside alone. As for why I haven't visited your home, you're just an ordinary person, we don't have much in common. Sitting together would be awkward for you, and I'd feel uncomfortable," Ma Ling said bluntly, leaving no face for Master Wu.

Master Wu didn't get angry, just smiled kindly.

"I have to accompany my girlfriend, so I'm busy. After tonight, I might not even have a girlfriend anymore," Wang Yiming shook his head, feeling frustrated.

His words piqued the interest of Yang Haoran and Ma Ling.

Ma Ling suddenly became spirited, excitedly asking, "The woman named Chen Ying just now is your girlfriend?"

Wang Yiming nodded, not denying it.

Ma Ling burst into laughter, saying, "Just a moment ago, someone was joking about being okay with having a girlfriend who treats him well, but it turns out he's been slapped in the face so quickly. It's like karma comes like a tornado!"

Wang Yiming, who had been wearing a serious expression, darkened at Ma Ling's words.

"Are you even qualified to talk about me? When you were mocking Brother Yang, you were much harsher than me. Let me ask you, where's your karma?" Wang Yiming asked with a straight face.

"Hehe, my karma is probably still on its way. But it's quite poor, it can't afford a car, so it has to walk to find me. As for how long it will take to find me, honestly, I don't know either," Ma Ling chuckled.

Wang Yiming glared at Ma Ling, unable to utter a word for a long time, while Master Wu chose the perfect moment to speak up.

"Now that everyone's gathered, let's change the venue and continue our gathering. After all, it's still early tonight, and Ma Ling will be leaving Lecheng soon. It's a good opportunity to give her a farewell," Master Wu suggested with a smile.

Ma Ling's spirits lifted at these words. "I haven't had enough to drink yet. I like Old Man Wu's proposal!"

Yang Haoran didn't refuse either. His problem with Yin Qi hadn't been resolved yet. Sitting somewhere else might yield results, whether they were what he wanted or not, he was eager to find out.

"Let's go! Let's find another place to drink! Since our shoes are already wet, I'm not afraid to wet the cuffs of my pants again!" Wang Yiming was filled with frustration and wanted to drown his sorrows in alcohol, so he didn't refuse either.

"In that case, let's go to my place. In my opinion, welcoming guests at home is the highest standard. Moreover, our chef's skills at home are pretty good, and most importantly, we have a lot of fine wines I've collected. Haha!" Master Wu said with a laugh.

Upon hearing about returning to the villa, Ma Ling was initially unwilling, but upon learning about the many fine wines in the villa, her reluctance turned into eagerness.

"What are we waiting for then? Let's hurry up and not waste any more time here!"

With Ma Ling urging them on, Master Wu led the three out of the hotel, got into Master Wu's luxury car, and headed towards the villa they had visited before.

Returning to the Wu Family villa once again, the chilly atmosphere had disappeared. Yang Haoran sensed that the villa was still very clean.

The arrival of Yang Haoran and his companions brought liveliness to the Wu Family villa. Wu Xiaoxiao, who had already been preparing to go to bed, changed her plans, put on some clothes she found pretty, and joined in the fun.

Eldest son Wu was originally entertaining guests outside tonight, but with just one phone call from Master Wu, he hurried back to the villa immediately.

The guests he was entertaining outside tonight were important to Eldest son Wu, but compared to Yang Haoran and his companions, they were secondary. Eldest son Wu had witnessed the abilities of these three firsthand, so he understood why his father valued them so much.

Money was abundant in the Wu Family, but even if they were wealthy, they were unwilling to offend people like Yang Haoran and his companions. In their view, the more of these people they befriended, the better it was for themselves and for the entire Wu Family.

If... if they could make one person from the Wu Family become one of these people, then the help to the Wu Family would be even greater!

Therefore, upon learning of the arrival of Yang Haoran and his companions, Eldest son Wu immediately set aside his entertainment outside and rushed back to the villa at the fastest speed possible.

With others around, Yang Haoran and his companions didn't chat as freely as before. There were some reservations, but overall, they still got along quite pleasantly.

When they left the Wu Family villa, it was already past eleven at night. Normally, Master Wu would have been asleep by this time, but tonight he not only stayed awake but also personally escorted Yang Haoran back to the grocery store. This showed just how important Yang Haoran was in Master Wu's heart.

Unable to refuse Master Wu's warmth, Yang Haoran could only accept his offer. However, he understood why Master Wu valued him so much, although he didn't express his emotions outwardly when facing Master Wu. It was only after Master Wu left that his smile gradually faded, replaced by a look of melancholy.

Wang Yiming was able to lock the fluctuations of his power within his body to prevent any leakage of aura because he had previously used a sealing talisman.

Talisman masters of the Fu Sect usually didn't use sealing talismans, but Wang Yiming had used one before entering the Wu Family villa because he was worried that the fluctuation of his power might be sensed by the spirits in the villa. If the spirits fled as a result, things would become much more troublesome.

So, in order not to startle the grass and alert the snakes, he had used a sealing talisman in advance to lock all the fluctuations of his power within his body.

What disappointed Yang Haoran was that this sealing talisman was only effective for talisman masters and had no effect on the Yin Qi on his body. Even if Wang Yiming gave him a sealing talisman, it wouldn't achieve the desired result.

Wang Yiming had no way to deal with the Yin Qi on his body, so he placed his hopes on Ma Ling. After all, Ma Ling's strength was not bad either. However, Ma Ling was also powerless against the Yin Qi on him. As long as there was Yin spirit power, his Yin Qi would continue to linger.

Upon receiving this result, Yang Haoran couldn't help but feel disappointed. Ma Ling seemed to sense his disappointment and promised to ask the elders in her family after they returned home to see if they had any solutions.

According to Ma Ling, there were many capable people in her Ma family. She was just a junior in the family, and her inability to deal with the Yin Qi on Yang Haoran didn't mean that her family elders couldn't either.

Yang Haoran was very grateful to Ma Ling for this, and his heart held a glimmer of hope, although it wasn't very strong.

"I can't rely all my hopes on Ma Ling. It seems I must find another way."

With this thought in mind, Yang Haoran suddenly remembered someone: Divine Envoy Deng Feng!

"How could I forget about him? Deng Feng oversees all the Night Watch in Lecheng. He might be able to give me the result I want. But... how can I get close to him?"

After thinking for a while and coming up with no immediate ideas, he had to temporarily put this matter aside. After paying his respects to the Death God, he left the grocery store.

Although he had drunk quite a bit tonight, he didn't plan to go to sleep immediately. He hadn't collected many souls during this period, and if he didn't hurry, he would be embarrassed by the end of the month, inevitably subjected to ridicule from Xu Meijing.

Whether to ridicule or be ridiculed, Yang Haoran naturally chose the former. He didn't have a masochistic tendency.

So, in order not to appear passive in front of Xu Meijing and to make himself stronger, he needed to collect more souls.

Under the cold moonlight, Yang Haoran walked seemingly aimlessly with his hands in his pockets, but in reality, he was sensing the presence of nearby undead. At the same time, he was thinking about how to get close to Divine Envoy Deng Feng.

If he could get close to Divine Envoy Deng Feng, the benefits to him would be countless. After all, Deng Feng was his boss. Getting close to one's own boss would surely bring many benefits. Even if Deng Feng couldn't handle the Yin Qi on him, he could still gain other benefits.

But how to get close to Deng Feng was the problem.

To get close to a person, one must start with their hobbies. Only by doing so would the approach be more effective. However, he was not familiar with Deng Feng and naturally didn't know what Deng Feng's hobbies were.

Approaching someone without knowing their preferences wasn't impossible, but it was time-consuming and required extreme caution. Otherwise, it was easy to backfire.

After walking for who knew how long, Yang Haoran suddenly stopped not because he sensed the presence of undead, but because he thought of a way to get close to Deng Feng.

"Hobbies... I don't know his specific hobbies, but there's one thing he definitely likes!"

With this thought in mind, Yang Haoran looked at the soul gathering bead embedded in his ring!

Under the moonlight, his shadow stretched long. He once again put his hands in his pockets and started walking.
