Guilongchao: I played the domineering CEO to the bone.

Chapter 112 The Vanishing Little Light

It is said that the Thousand Faces Society is elusive and difficult to investigate, but its members all share one common characteristic—masks.

Meanwhile, in a dimly lit corner of Nakaura Ward.

Changmingsuo removed her gray mask and handed it to the cowardly person who was hiding in the shadows.

Together with the Yu Clan's natal dragon spell taken from Yu Youquan's body.

That was her "examiner".

"I have already handed over the requested 'pawned goods'."

"It really took me a lot of effort to obtain the Yu Clan's natal dragon curse."

"Ho ho..."

A laugh that was neither male nor female, whose gender and voice were indistinguishable, came from the shadows.

"A happy ending with no casualties... Longevity Lock, when did you become so tepid..."

“少罗嗦！”

The longevity lock tapped the concrete wall beside her with her red umbrella in dissatisfaction, leaving a crisp crack that represented her discontent.

"I've already met the promotion targets you set! I'll be promoted once I get the Dragon Spell, are you trying to back out now!?"

Longevity Lock was also exhausted after a busy day, but she was in the den of tigers and wolves at the Thousand Meetings, so she had to show the strongest posture at all times.

She didn't know who her examiner was or what their abilities were, but she had to show her toughness in order to do better in the Thousand Faces Gathering.

She's still too weak... Once she steals enough of Pulao's power and gains enough trust from the Thousand Faces Society...

She wanted to help Min Moyou in the plot to seize the Supreme Dragon Curse—Pulao, and to personally deliver a fatal blow to the mastermind behind it all!

"Ha... How could I dare?"

The man hiding in the shadows took out a yellow mask and handed it to Changmingsuo.

"Deceiving people to the point of death is no big deal... The organization's rules are absolute, and no one dares to joke about them."

Clearly, the power surging from that yellow mask was more than ten times the power from the gray mask that Longevity Lock had previously possessed.

"Congratulations. You've been promoted from a gray-faced trainee to a yellow-faced trainee."

Incidentally, the members of the Thousand Faces Society are divided into two parts: the outer circle and the inner circle.

Most of the peripheral members are those who have made transactions and signed contracts with Qianxianghui or Qianxiangpu, but are not under their control or affected by the contracts, as well as some weak cannon fodder.

Starting with the inner circle members, the lowest level, the apprentice Gray Face—members who possess this mask containing the power of the Pulaolong Mantra—are considered to be in the lower ranks of the Thousand Faces Gathering.

Now that the Longevity Lock has successfully obtained the yellow face, it has entered the mid-level range.

"However... as I see it, your goal shouldn't be just yellow noodles, right?"

The mysterious voice in the shadows speculated arrogantly:

"Green face? Blue face? Or red face?... I have a feeling you'll keep rising through the ranks. So... what is it that you ultimately want?"

Changmingsuo took the yellow face mask, put it in her small handbag, and smiled faintly.

"hehe."

Without saying a word, he simply turned and left.

...

Speaking of the next day... or perhaps it was the next day, but the concept of time in the Dragon Realm was too weak.

Na Yubing woke up in the warm, damp bed and noticed that Min Moyou was fast asleep beside her, a happy and content smile on his face. A surge of pride welled up inside her.

What? So that's all the skill he has?

What do you mean by wanting this time, next time, countless times...? You're just putting on a brave face, aren't you?

Tsk, man.

Then, as if suddenly remembering something, she quietly rummaged through the blankets...

They found a silk handkerchief with lingering fragrance and fallen red plum blossoms; it was something she always carried with her.

I was completely out of my mind last night!

Knowing full well what kind of man Min Moyou was, she still insisted on thanking him in that way...

Or perhaps you actually anticipated this, but still...

Thankfully, she managed to place the silk handkerchief under herself last night, otherwise she would have to cut the sheets this morning... That would be so unladylike!

Huh? Why are there so many holes in the bed sheet?

Oh...maybe it was too intense last night...

Speaking of which, what happened after last night? I can't remember...

Yu Bing silently admired the crimson plum blossoms stained with blood on the silk handkerchief, a complex emotion welling up within her. She inexplicably felt as if another layer of constraint had been added to her life, as if another chain had been added to the chains that already bound her...

It seems... there's also a sense of helplessness at not being able to control or resist fate, and a resentment at becoming someone else's possession...

It deeply wounded her strong-willed heart...

Sigh... there's no turning back now.

After a while, Yubing folded the silk handkerchief in her hand and placed it on the bedside table. Still feeling a bit tired, she didn't care about being naked and just wanted to lie down and rest for a while.

Looking back, she realized that Min Moyou had woken up sometime earlier and was staring intently at her...

Yu Bing shrank deeper into the blanket, pulling it tighter, and a hint of reminiscence could be faintly seen in Min Moyou's eyes.

"Um... I'm tired, I haven't recovered yet... You... you shouldn't do anything rash..."

Min Moyou simply pulled Yu Bing into his arms, making no further move.

Because he really ate a lot last night.

"I know. Tell me, how come you, a dragon's offspring, are so frail?"

"...When did you wake up?"

"Just now, while you were looking at the handkerchief."

"........"

"Regret it?"

"I regret it so much! I regret it to death..."

"It's too late, it's been too long."

"I know, I knew it a long time ago."

Yu Bing rolled over, her blanket wrapped around her, and turned her back to Min Moyou.

"Hmph... I'm ignoring you."

Min Moyou didn't say much, but gently kissed Yu Bing's hair and got out of bed.

He conjured a neat and smart women's outfit out of thin air and placed it next to Yu Bing, then pulled out a brand-new men's suit from somewhere and walked towards the bathroom not far from the bed.

"Get some rest. I'll have Xiaoguang bring breakfast over later."

"Why don't you send your men? You can't even make phone calls in Dragon Domain?"

"They...have other things to do. They can make a phone call."

"Oh."

Seeing that Yu Bing had no other questions, Min Moyou then went into the bathroom.

In fact, last night's outcome was a lose-lose situation.

So when everything was over, just a few tens of minutes before Yu Bing woke up, Min Moyou's subordinates, each dragging their weary bodies, cut off their own virginity and left first.

They also wanted to be intimate with Min Moyou, and of course they wanted to "become official" with her, but their current status was not suitable for staying by Min Moyou's side when Yu Bing woke up.

Crackle...

Drip, drip, drip...

Within this dragon realm, even the water sprayed from the showerheads is composed of magical energy.

However, the water formed from the cursed power did indeed have a cleansing effect. This cursed power was also very gentle; as it flowed over Min Moyou's well-defined muscles, a small amount would remain and penetrate deep into his body, nourishing his skin and flesh...

The nightingale's tender charm...

The peacock's fiery and exciting...

The griffin's ferocious power...

The turtledove's intellectual elegance...

The parrot's tranquility and serenity...

The oriole's cunning and gentle nature...

The memory of the ink-producing capital of Fujian is still vivid in my mind.

Why do I suddenly feel like I'm a bit of a jerk?

Min Moyou shook his head, trying to shake off this inexplicable thought.

He's a powerful CEO now, why is he still bothered by these trivial matters?

It was even Yu Bing who personally asked him to do so.

While washing, Min Moyou picked up the Little Spirit Eye, found Xiao Guang's contact information, and pressed...

Turn it off with your other hand.

I clicked the wrong button; I accidentally clicked on a video call.

Thankfully, Xiaoguang didn't answer...

Never mind, it won't matter even if she answers.

Switching to dialing, Min Moyou made another call.

Xiao Guang didn't answer the phone for a long time.

"It's only been two days since I started working, how come I can't contact you anymore?"

Min Moyou made several more phone calls, but no one answered.

and many more!

Minmo Youhu's body trembled.

Why does this plot seem so familiar?

Last night, before Min Moyou finished her work, wasn't she checking the latest plot of "Return of the Dragon" with the system?

There are three story segments in total. Min Moyou only had time to watch two of them before Yu Bing sneaked in.

One story is about a little girl named Wuchang in the Lion District. She's an adorable, clueless girl who acts as a soul ferryman, specializing in helping those lingering, resentful souls find peace in the human world. She even discovers that she's not human. Her ultimate goal is to fulfill her own "obsession" and then help herself find peace.

However, Wuchang lost her previous memories, did not know what her obsession was, and even lost the ability to feel emotions. She only had one address in her mind. She was very curious about what this had to do with her background or obsession, so she asked Longchao Pavilion to help her find this address.

After finding her, and following an exploration of the mysterious old house, Wuchang regained her memories and learned that a hundred years ago, during the great flood in the Lion District, her sister, the child adopted by Wuchang's family, sacrificed herself to protect her. Her dying will manifested as a magical power that protected Wuchang, causing her to fall into a deep sleep, only to awaken a century later...

In short, the story is quite convoluted, but we won't discuss the specifics now, because this part of the plot is unrelated to our current situation.

The relevant part is the next plot point – "The Joyful Journey from the Fox's Cry".

This plot revolves around Xiao Guang, who mysteriously disappears after taking the wrong job offer letter instead of a wedding invitation.

At that time, Longchaoge also tried to contact Xiaoguang by phone or other means, but received no response, just like Minmoyou's current situation.

That's why Minmoyou suddenly remembered this.

Then, after an investigation by the Dragon Tide Pavilion, Director Tong prepared a bunch of things according to the requirements on the wedding invitation and successfully summoned the red wedding carriage. Riding on it, the director was vaguely transported to a dragon realm where a wedding was being held.

Tong charged through the Dragon Realm, finally finding Xiao Guang at its end and successfully rescuing her.

But Xiao Guang's clumsy talent kicked in! She secretly brought a fox out of the Dragon Realm—

No! It's not just a simple fox! It's a fox spirit that has been corrupted by cursed power for a long time and has successfully taken human form!

Then she learned that the fox spirit was rejected by humans because she was a demon, and longed for a companion to stay with her forever. However, she discovered that Tong seemed to be an anomaly, just like herself, so she sent Tong a marriage invitation, thinking that marriage was a mysterious ceremony to be together for life...

However, she was deceived, manipulated, and controlled by the Dragon Lord of the Dragon Realm who transformed her from a little fox into a fox spirit.

The Dragon Realm's ruler—the Ghost Mother—tricked the fox spirit—Zhu Sha—in order to use her to hunt humans. She tricked her into sending out marriage invitations, using her curses to lure people into marriage, and then brought them to the Dragon Realm where the Ghost Mother drained their life force.

Zhu Sha waited for several years without finding someone to marry, so the Ghost Mother lied to her, saying they weren't suitable for each other. Thus, Zhu Sha sought out Tong, an anomaly with golden eyes. (But it wasn't specified how she was an anomaly.)

In the final episode, Hitomi and Zhusha join forces to defeat the Demon Mother. Zhusha breaks free from control and lives happily ever after with Hitomi...

The recollection ended there, and Min Moyou turned off the shower and wiped the remaining water droplets off her body with a towel.

'I never imagined that my arrival would advance this part of the story so much?'

Min Moyou recalled that, as far as she remembered, there were at least three or four other scenes before this one.

"That makes sense, how can a game compare to reality?"

Min Moyou, fully dressed, stepped out of the bathroom and looked at Yu Bing, who was still fast asleep on the bed, and instructed her:

"Bing, Xiaoguang might be in some trouble. I'll go take care of it. You rest here and wait for me to come back."

"I see... How come your new servant hasn't even done any work yet... and you're already being sent to solve her problems..."

Although Yu Bing didn't say it aloud, she certainly wanted Min Moyou to stay and spend more time with her.

He just got the position of clan head and he's already leaving...? That despicable man...

"It's about showing consideration for our employees; that's the spirit of the Min family!"

Minmo Youxiao made a joke to Yubing.

"Really? Then... go ahead. Come back soon, be careful, and take all your men with you."

"Ah."

..............

The strongest griffin was undoubtedly the main force in last night's battle against Min Moyou, absorbing the most of Min Moyou's firepower.

When everything was over, only she could still force herself to lean against the outside of Minmo You's house, her muscles aching, ready to stand by at any moment.

After all, there always needs to be someone to serve the master.

Nightingale and the others... were really out of sorts. After discussing it, they decided to take turns resting, with Griffin volunteering to take the first shift.

I just didn't expect...

"What about them? They've gone out on business and need someone to accompany them."

Ever since Min Moyou heard about the Lady of the Golden Rank and witnessed the Caged Bird that was infinitely close to the Golden Rank, he has felt somewhat insecure.

Take the caged bird for example. Apart from the griffin, even one of the nightingales or the others alone would be no match for it—of course, two would be enough.

"...I'm too tired, everyone go and rest, Master."

"It's okay, you're enough. By the way, aren't you tired? You were the most..."

"......tired."

The griffin went from leaning against the wall to standing up, her steps unsteady. Compared to usual, her weak thighs made her sway before she could stand still.

She is a martial arts practitioner!

"........"

"Isn't Master tired? Shouldn't you rest a little longer?"

"Fortunately, I've almost fully recovered."

Looking at the griffin's state, Min Moyou felt a pang of pity.

Although she was his subordinate, she was still his woman after all.

Sigh... I shouldn't have done that last night... Who could have imagined this would happen?

But Hikaru might be in danger right now... If his arrival disrupted the timeline and caused Hitomi to not notice Hikaru's disappearance, then wouldn't that be...?

Although he was not weak as he possessed the Supreme Dragon Curse, this world was still too dangerous.

Moreover, Min Moyou discovered that the Tong in this world was far weaker than the protagonist Tong in the game, who could fight anything.

Seeing a hint of pity in Min Moyou's eyes, the griffin stubbornly maintained its majestic posture and calmly said to Min Moyou:

"Master, please feel free to give me any instructions."

Seeing the determination in the griffin's eyes, Min Moyou was about to agree when a thought struck him, as if he sensed something.

He patted the griffin on the back, rejecting her.

"It's okay, you don't need to. You're not feeling well either, go back and get some rest."

The griffin could sense the certainty and affirmation in Min Moyou's tone, so it didn't force itself. It nodded and walked back to the small attic it had chosen the night before, feeling somewhat awkward.

Because, I suddenly woke up.
