Just as Murong Qing and her maid Xiao Huan were chatting, three uninvited guests had already snuck into the courtyard.
Zhou Fan, covered by Mengli's Demonic Qi, leaned casually against the wall, watching the furtive figure not far away with a playful expression.
That figure, in broad daylight, wore a black night suit and a black mask, as if afraid others wouldn't know he was there to do bad things.
This person was Ye Fan.
Ye Fan was cautiously and stealthily crawling towards the wall of Murong Qing's room, constantly glancing around, appearing extremely careful.
Unfortunately, Ye Fan's current strength was only at the Martial Dao Grandmaster level; Mengli's previous cultivation was already a major Realm higher than his, not to mention Mengli had now Broken Through to the Qi Ling Realm Middle Stage.
Speaking of which, the reason Mengli was able to Break Through to the Qi Ling Realm Middle Stage was due to Zhou Fan's high-quality and abundant desires.
Mengli was already on the verge of Breaking Through to the Qi Ling Realm Middle Stage, and during the ten-plus days of carriage travel, Zhou Fan directly helped it pierce that layer of window paper.
So, after Ye Fan looked around a few times and saw that the surroundings were indeed empty, he quickly pulled out a packet of pre-prepared medicinal powder and an extremely thin bamboo tube from his clothes' inner pocket.
As a poison master, Ye Fan could not only heal people but also poison them.
And the packet of medicinal powder in his hand now was a super-effective poison he had meticulously prepared these past few days.
No matter how aloof Murong Qing was before, after sniffing my secret medicinal powder a few times, her thoughts would change in no time.
Hehehe, you rejected me before, Murong Qing, today I'll let you experience this young master's power.
Through the window paper, Zhou Fan slowly sent the medicinal powder into Murong Qing's room, then waited excitedly.
Watching the scene unfolding before him, the System sister actually spoke up in Zhou Fan's mind.
"Host, why aren't you stopping Ye Fan's disgusting behavior?"
Zhou Fan: "? System, please, I'm a villain, okay? What that Son of Destiny, Ye Fan, is doing is exactly what I want, why should I stop him?"
"Perfect, let him do the bad deeds, and later I'll go enjoy the fruits of his labor."
"But Host, this behavior isn't conducive to winning Murong Qing's heart."
Upon hearing the System's words, Zhou Fan replied to the System in his mind with a hint of coolness: "I never intended to expend effort to win Murong Qing's heart; I just need to give her a future."
"System, there are many beautiful women in this world, but very few who can truly move my heart."
"One's time is limited; if I were to have a sweet romance with every friend, when would I ever finish?"
"Qingzhi is already eighteen now, and I only have thirty to forty years. Within this time, I must find a way to acquire enough resources in the Cultivation World to help Qingzhi also reach the Foundation Establishment Stage."
"This is my promise to Qingzhi."
"If Qingzhi has a Spiritual Root, that's good, but I'm afraid she doesn't have a Spiritual Root, and that probability is quite high, so I must plan early."
"Besides, even though I'm distracted and not emotionally invested, as long as Murong Qing is willing to follow me and obediently bear children, I will still treat her well."
"Roughly, about one-tenth of how I treat Qingzhi and Yaya."
"Oh my goodness, Host, how can you be so bad, yet so affectionate and emotionless?"
"This System, this System now… admires you even more~ Host."
"Ding, reporting to Host, because your kind behavior has made this System very pleased, this System has decided to create a unique Physique for you."
"Ding, congratulations to Host for obtaining the Extreme Overlord Body (Elementary)."
"What the heck?"
Zhou Fan looked at the long string of words that appeared in his Physique column, a new Physique, and asked the System in confusion.
"System, what's the use of this… Extreme Overlord Body (Elementary)?"
"Ding, reporting to Host, this Physique is a unique type of Physique; throughout the Three Thousand Worlds and endless Chaos, only Host possesses this Physique."
"Regardless of the method, any friendly interaction between the owner of this Physique and any living creature or intelligent non-living entity will cause that entity's favorability towards the Physique owner to gradually increase."
"As the number of friendly interactions increases, that entity will gradually fall deeply in love with Host, to the point of dedicating everything, and will never betray you."
"As for 'Elementary', it means that this Physique can currently only affect living creatures and non-living entities below the Foundation Establishment Stage."
"Host can consume 100,000 Luck points to upgrade this Physique, or do more things in the future that please this System."
Zhou Fan pondered for a moment and then said, "System, do you count as an intelligent non-living entity?"
"Hmph hmph, Host, this System advises you not to indulge in wishful thinking."
"Although this System currently admires you greatly, at least before Immortal Ascension, Host cannot have intimate relations with this System."
"System, why are you so narcissistic?" Zhou Fan said, somewhat speechless: "I was just asking if you count as an intelligent non-living entity."
"Huh? This System was actually tricked into using a big move by a normal attack." The System said, a bit sulkily: "Host, you're such a big bad guy."
Ignoring the System, which had suddenly become Yaya-like, Zhou Fan used his True Qi to sense that Murong Qing and Xiao Huan in the room had already begun to detoxify each other.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Zhou Fan strode directly over.
Ye Fan, who was stirring restlessly at the base of the wall, suddenly sensed someone behind him and was instantly startled.
But before he could even turn his head, he was knocked unconscious by Zhou Fan's hand blade, which was entwined with Yin and Yang Qi.
Leaving Mengli to watch over Ye Fan, who was unconscious on the ground like a dead dog, and to stand guard outside for Zhou Fan, Zhou Fan slowly pushed open Kang Wang's concubine's room door and entered the small room, which was now filled with the scent of medicine.
Inside the small room, the two women were startled to suddenly see a large man enter.
But when Zhou Fan subtly revealed his profound strength, Xiao Huan immediately felt that the poison had deeply penetrated her bones.
Especially when she saw Zhou Fan's world-class handsome face, Xiao Huan immediately asked with a trembling voice.
"Son-in-law, are you here to help Xiao Huan?"
