I Dreamed of You

Lu Dongchun, Lu Maoxian's daughter.

Monkey Qiu was in his early forties, while Lu Dongchun was two years older than Monkey Qiu. However, in terms of appearance, Lu Dongchun looked like a woman in her twenties, with delicate skin and exquisite features. She was a rare beauty.

She was dressed in a dark Western-style long dress, holding a parasol, and waiting quietly at the entrance of the Lu Mansion. There was no noise, no complaints, and she didn't even bring any attendants. Such a beautiful and well-behaved woman, how could she have offended Duan Shaoxia and made Lu Family so disgusted with her?

"I won't see her, let her leave!" Duan Shaoxia still refused to let Lu Dongchun in.

Monkey Qiu said, "Madam, she has come to find someone to avenge the old master."

Duan Shaoxia gritted her teeth and said, "She still has the nerve to come looking for me? I'm being lenient by not going to settle accounts with them!"

Monkey Qiu shook his head and said, "Madam, this is the rule of the house."

Duan Shaoxia's face was very gloomy.

She understood the rules of large Lineage.

If Lu Maoxian was injured by the Lu Family, then the various branches of the Lu Family should ignore him and let him fend for himself.

But Lu Maoxian was injured by an outsider. As long as he was seriously injured, knew who did it, and took the initiative to ask for revenge, all branches of the Lu Family would have to respond.

If any family does not respond, they will be isolated by the Lineage, especially the Direct Lineage of the Lu Family. They should set an example at this time. Whether they will actually contribute is another matter, but they must be present.

Duan Shaoxia moment, then said to Monkey Qiu, "Zhiheng, Yuanhai is in this situation. Huaiyi hasn't even entered our family yet. I'm just a woman; I don't have the skills to fight on the battlefield."

"I'm leaving this matter to you. You must be extremely careful. Lu Maoxian's place to make a good impression. If anything happens to you, our family will be in deep trouble."

Qiu Zhiheng nodded and said, "Miss Dongchun is still outside. We should invite her in and say a few words to her in person."

"No way!" Duan Shaoxia waved her hands repeatedly. "Host her in your little building. I don't want to see her. Seeing her gives me the creeps!"

Qiu Zhiheng went outside and personally welcomed Lu Dongchun into the small building.

Lu Dongchun rarely went out. The servants in the small building were new and unfamiliar with her. When they saw the guest arrive, they quickly made tea for her.

Lu Dongchun picked up his teacup, took a sip, and asked, "Zhiheng, does your sister-in-law not want to see me?"

Monkey Qiu nodded.

"It's fine if she doesn't want to see me, but she has to give me an answer: are you going to get involved in my father's matter or not?"

"I'll take care of it!" Monkey Qiu answered decisively. "Once you've decided on the date and place, let me know and I'll go there myself."

"You're going?" Lu Dongchun blinked, his clear eyes reflecting Monkey Qiu's face. "Are you considered part of the maternal family or the main family?"

"Is this a serious matter?"

"Of course, this is my father's order. This time, in our pursuit of revenge against the Ling family, we must distinguish between those inside and those outside!"

Old Master Lu distinguishes between insiders and outsiders, but this time the rules are different.

This family refers to the Lu Family.

"Outer family" refers to the various forces under the protection of the Lu Family.

The previous two, Si Wennian and Fengxiu Tan Fucheng, were both from outside the family.

But Monkey Qiu's situation is somewhat special.

If he were to represent his family, he would at least have to bring a member of his family. Even if the family member didn't participate, just watching from the sidelines would still be perfectly legitimate.

If he went on behalf of his maternal family, it would save a lot of trouble, but it would mean that Lu Dongliang's Direct Lineage didn't send anyone, thus failing to solve the actual problem.

Without hesitation, Monkey Qiu replied, "From the same clan."

"Alright!" Lu Dongchun picked up his teacup, took another sip, and said, "You must let us see the real family members then."

The Monkey Qiu served tea to the guests as they left.

Lu Dongchun got up to take his leave.

No matter how his body moved, Lu Dongchun's eyes remained fixed on the monkey.

Monkey Qiu escorted Lu Dongchun to the door, and a servant came to clear away the tea, only to find that Lu Dongchun's teacup was still full.

That shouldn't be the case; I clearly saw her take two sips just now.

Just as the servant was wondering what was going on, Monkey Qiu instructed him, "If she comes again in the future, don't serve her tea."

Ma Wu was preparing for the premiere of "Blood Spear Detective 4". The theater was half-decorated when a group of reporters barged in.

Ma Wu planned to have Cao Zhida take his men to deal with them, but he discovered that these were not ordinary reporters; they were very skilled.

This is someone who's here to cause trouble.

A man and a woman followed the reporter into the cinema and walked directly toward Ma Wu.

Who is this?

Ling Miaoying and actress Tu Yinghong?

Why are the two of them here?

This was beyond the capabilities of his subordinates, Ma Wu personally went to meet them, with Zuo Wugang following closely behind.

Ling Miaoying took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep drag, and blew the smoke into Ma Wu's face. "Boss Ma, may your business prosper!"

Ma Wu wasn't angry. He lit a cigarette and said, "Boss Ling, you're too kind. This is just a small matter. It's nothing to you."

"No need to be modest. I admire you from the bottom of my heart. I've come here today to discuss a collaboration with you."

I have a few new films about to start shooting. If you think highly of me, come to my set, help me look at the scripts, give me some ideas, and let's make some serious movies and make money together.

Ling Miaoying's meaning was clear: she wanted to take over Ma Wu's business.

Previously, Ma Wu had the Lu Family's protection, but now the Lu Family's Direct Lineage has fallen, Lu Maoxian injured.

Even if Lu Maoxian hadn't been injured, he wouldn't have been able to take care of Ma Wu.

Ma Wu has lost his backer; now is the best time to take Ma Wu down.

If we can take this opportunity to get rid of Li Qi and get our hands on that item, we might not have to put up with He Jiaqing's attitude anymore.

Ma Wu smiled and lowered his head, "Boss Ling, you're joking. My little business is hardly worthy of your attention."

Ling Miaoying looked at Ma Wu: "I just want to ask you whether you agree or not?"

Ma Wu shook his head slightly and said, "I think we'd better go our separate ways."

Ling Miaoying held the cigarette in her hand and twirled it between her fingers. "That means you don't agree."

Zuo Wugang sensed something was wrong and immediately shielded Ma Wu behind him.

Ling Miaoying smiled calmly, "It's just a business deal, why make such a fuss? If Fifth Young Master isn't willing, we can just leave."

That's what she said, but Ling Miaoying had no intention of leaving.

He didn't intend to kill Ma Wu, but he had to teach Ma Wu a lesson. Taking advantage of Ma Wu's inattention, Tu Yinghong prepared to kill Zuo Wugang.

She reached her right hand into her red skirt, about to draw her weapon, when Ling Miaoying suddenly reached out and stopped Tu Yinghong.

What's going on?

Why did Ling Miaoying suddenly change her mind about everything that had been discussed before we came?

It wasn't that they changed their minds; it's that Ling Miaoying saw someone coming.

After waiting for a while, Tu Yinghong finally realized that there was another person standing next to them.

The man was wearing a black suit and a top hat, the brim pulled low so that his face was almost completely obscured.

"Ms. Ling, can I borrow a cigarette?" Li Banfeng took Ling Miaoying's tin cigarette case at some point, took out a cigarette, lit it, and then returned the cigarette case to Ling Miaoying.

Ling Miaoying was sweating profusely.

With so many things happening to the Lu Family, Li Banfeng had long anticipated that Ling Miaoying would pull such a move and had taken precautions in advance.

"I just heard you talking about business, Mr. Ling. Do you have some good ways to make money? Tell me, and we can make money together."

Ling Miaoying was silent for a moment, then smiled at Li Banfeng, "Seventh Master, your business is always packed, while mine can't even get 60% of what it should. I still need your guidance on how to make money."

Li Banfeng was very modest. "I wouldn't call it giving pointers, but we can find a place to have a good chat."

Ling Miaoying glanced at the theater's setup. "You two are both quite busy today, let's talk another day."

He left the cinema with a group of reporters. Zuo Wugang wiped his sweat and said, "None of those people were good people!"

He's right, those so-called reporters are all ruthless people under Ling Miaoying's command.

Ma Wu gritted his teeth and said, "The Lu Family has fallen. I didn't expect Ling Miaoying to be so arrogant. Ling Miaoying and her brother are really different in temperament."

"A mountain to lean on is ultimately unreliable." Li Banfeng was very calm. With six levels of Travel Cultivator and five levels of House Cultivator, he knew that he could rely on someone now.

The premiere was left to Ma Wu to handle, and Li Banfeng returned to Portable Abode.

This trip was very fruitful.

Ling Miaoying is a seventh-level cultivator at the Observation Realm. Although Li Banfeng has a unique characteristic that is often overlooked and possesses extraordinary speed, it is ultimately not an easy task for him to escape Ling Miaoying's notice.

He was able to get the cigarette case from Ling Miaoying entirely thanks to the yarn gloves. Of course, the gloves couldn't have only taken one cigarette case in one go; he also stole Ling Miaoying's pistol.

Li Banfeng had seen this pistol before. He had encountered Ling Miaoying on the platform and was almost crippled by it.

"How can such a large pistol fit inside?" Li Banfeng gained a new understanding of the glove's capacity.

The Wife also had some knowledge of firearms. She picked up the pistol with a needle and observed it for a moment before saying, "This gun is a Spiritual Object. As long as the bullet can fire, it will definitely hit the enemy. If it hits a vital spot, cultivators below the third level will definitely die, and cultivators above the third level will also be injured. The lower the cultivation level, the more severe the injury."

This is great stuff!

The glove then spat out another wallet, which also belonged to Ling Miaoying.

Li Banfeng opened his wallet and saw that it contained dozens of Huan Country Notes.

"Not bad, you've done a great job today!" Li Banfeng praised the gloves, then took all the banknotes out of his wallet and stuffed them into the gloves as a reward.

After accepting the money, the man with the gloves sincerely said, "Thanks, boss!"

Li Banfeng continued his research on handguns.

The gloves went into the third room to rest.

Ling Miaoying returned to the film company, still shaken.

Tu Yinghong sat down next to Ling Miaoying and asked, "Who was that person in the top hat just now?"

"Li Qi is a very difficult person to deal with."

Tu Yinghong said, "You said you were going to deal with Ma Wu, so why is Li Qi suddenly appearing?"

"Ma Wu only cares about doing business; he's the one who's really in charge."

"This person is incredibly fast."

"He's Travel Cultivator. I've fought him before, and he's even faster than before."

Ling Miaoying wondered whether she should tell He Jiaqing what had happened. She touched the buttons on her chest and suddenly felt that something was missing from her clothes.

"Where's my gun? Where's my gun!" Ling Miaoying exclaimed in shock. This Spiritual Object was very valuable and important to him as well.

Seeing that Ling Miaoying had lost something, Tu Yinghong subconsciously touched her skirt.

"Oh no! My Iron Ruler is gone!"

Ling Miaoying's eyes widened. "The Iron Ruler is gone! Does that mean the building can't be moved?"

Tu Yinghong gritted her teeth and said, "It must have been stolen by that Li Qi. We have to get it back no matter what!"

Portable Abode with three rooms.

Seeing that there were no other magical artifacts in the room, he silently spat out a pair of Iron Ruler.

It's amazing that these gloves can swallow such a large pair of Iron Ruler!

"Hehehe!" Gloves chuckled in a low voice.

You idiot, you really think that pistol is something special?

These weapons are the real gems.

Although I don't know how to use it yet, this thing is worth many times more than a pistol.

He placed the Iron Ruler on the ground, preparing to examine it carefully.

The Iron Ruler melted upon contact with the ground, quickly seeped through, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The glove exclaimed in surprise, "My darling..."

Li Banfeng pushed open the door and angrily shouted, "What are you yelling about? What treasure?"

After a long pause, the gloves, feeling a pang of heartache, almost burst into tears, and replied in a trembling voice, "My dearest husband, I just fell asleep and dreamed about you."

PS: Thank you Unicorn Dragon for the Silver Alliance, thank you Yu Sheng Qiu Meng for the Alliance Leader, and thank you for your encouragement and support for Salad.

There will definitely be an extra chapter, but let's give Salad a break.
