When the Lights Are Out, She's the Same

"Is everything I've done completely within his grasp?"

Fang Chang was truly terrified. He hadn't been this scared even when Da Zhuang died right in front of him.

It was this feeling of being completely foreseen, of being spied upon, that made him feel like every secret and perversion of his was laid bare.

"Fortunately, I still have some conscience left, otherwise..."

Fang Chang felt a sense of relief. Otherwise, the next person to handle his corpse would be someone else.

Another half a month passed like this. Xiao Lang had directly robbed over a dozen assassins, all of them Dou Masters. Their net worth ranged mostly from two hundred thousand to five hundred thousand.

This also allowed Xiao Lang to directly earn about five million gold coins!

Although it was much less than the money he made selling medicine, this feeling of mugging people felt so satisfying!

Those who wanted to kill him were now robbed by him. This kind of reversal and slap in the face made Xiao Lang revel in it.

But after playing for over ten days, he was getting a little tired of it.

More importantly, he hadn't triggered a single system choice.

Then, this day was finally different.

Liu Yemei was preparing to make his move.

The reason he waited so long was because the assassin organization and the Jia Lie Family seemed to have also sensed something was wrong. He could no longer use Xiao Lang to rob other assassins of their money.

After all, the assassin organization had explicit rules: members of the same organization were not allowed to bully the weak or randomly kill low-level assassins. Doing so meant death!

The purpose of this was to protect low-level assassins so they could grow smoothly, rather than being slaughtered by their own people!

They also needed fresh blood.

Xiao Lang's level had also increased by more than one. With just one more Dou Master, he would be enough to break through to a Five-Star Dou Master again!

But he still felt it was too slow.

Over a dozen Dou Masters had only raised his level by two. It would be better to just make a choice.

Xiao Lang, as usual, slipped into an alley. But unlike usual, someone was already there before him.

"Kid, you're finally here."

Liu Yemei looked at Xiao Lang, a smile appearing at the corner of his lips, as if a pig he had raised for many years could finally be slaughtered.

"Fang Chang, you betrayed me?!"

Xiao Lang reacted immediately, looking at Fang Chang with a furious expression. Just as he was about to run back, two people were already blocking the entrance of the alley.

"Young Master Liu, as agreed beforehand, my wife and I will take two million!" One of the burly men with a full beard at the alley entrance took out two large axes from his Storage Ring, looking at Xiao Lang ferociously, as if he were looking at two million.

"Little brother, you're quite handsome. What a shame..." said a shapely woman next to the burly man.

The woman had a pleasant voice and a good figure, but her appearance was somewhat hard to compliment.

Seeing the woman's appearance, Xiao Lang looked at the burly man with admiration. He was truly a warrior!

He had completely embodied that saying.

When the lights are off, she's all the same...

"Heh, I'll skin him later and use his hide to make a mask!"

The burly man's jealousy flared when his woman praised another man's handsomeness. He glared fiercely at Xiao Lang, clearly having done such things before.

"Is everyone here?"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Lang's expression changed, and he revealed a smile, scanning everyone. "If everyone is here, then let's begin the feast."

"..."

Seeing Xiao Lang's nonchalant smile, Liu Yemei had felt a little flustered. But when he heard the latter half of the sentence, his cheek twitched. Did this kid have a screw loose?

"Kid, you have two choices. Choice one: you honestly hand over everything you have, and I'll give you a dignified death."

"Choice two: you can try to resist. The more you resist, the more excited I get, but the consequence will be being tortured to death by me. What do you choose?"

Liu Yemei said excitedly, looking at Xiao Lang. If he wasn't afraid of prolonged complications, he would have preferred the second option because he enjoyed the perverted pleasure of torturing people.

At the same time, system choices also appeared before Xiao Lang's eyes.

[Choice One: All three are wicked individuals. You choose to bury them. Upon completion, your level will increase by one, and the effect of Earth attribute Dou Technique will increase by ten percent!]

[Choice Two: All three are wicked individuals. You choose to cremate them. Upon completion, your level will increase by one, and the effect of Fire attribute Dou Technique will increase by ten percent!]

[Choice Three: All three are wicked individuals. You choose to give them a water burial. Upon completion, your level will increase by one, and the effect of Water attribute Dou Technique will increase by ten percent!]

[Choice Four: All three are wicked individuals. You choose to acknowledge them as your father and join them. Upon completion, your level will increase by one, and you will gain the title "Great Villain," with a one hundred percent chance of being caught!]

After a brief glance at the four options, Xiao Lang knew which one to choose.

He also couldn't help but complain about the ridiculous "Great Villain" title and the one hundred percent chance of being caught. Was it trying to tell him not to do evil, that his reach would always be caught?

What a positive energy system.

Xiao Lang was speechless. As for the first three options, he would definitely choose the third one, increasing the effect of Water attribute Dou Technique by ten percent!

Because I don't have fire or earth Dou Qi at all.

"Kid, stop trying to stall for time, and don't even think about escaping from here. I paid a great price to kill you."

Liu Yemei looked at Xiao Lang and said, "It's quite an honor for you to die at the hands of two 3-star Dou Masters and one 5-star Dou Master."

"Escape? You jest. How could I possibly escape? I'm just thinking about how to bury you all." Xiao Lang chuckled.

"Stubborn as a dead duck!"

Seeing this, Liu Yemei attacked first, drawing the soft sword at his waist and thrusting it at Xiao Lang!

"You think you can kill my brother with just your 5-star Dou Master cultivation? You're not taking me, Xiao Li, seriously at all, are you?"

Just then, a figure flashed by like lightning. With a thwack, a spear pierced Liu Yemei's heart, pinning him to the wall behind him.

"7-star Dou Master!?"

Upon sensing Xiao Li's aura, the bearded man and the woman's eyes widened. They turned to flee, only to find a man already standing behind them, gazing at them coldly as if they were already corpses.

"You want to kill my brother? I'll slaughter your entire organization along with you!" Xiao Ding's hands had petrified into a pair of wooden fists shimmering with metallic luster, clearly incredibly hard. His 8-star Dou Master aura filled the bearded man and the woman with despair.

"It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding. We were just hired."

As the bearded man spoke, he shoved the woman in front of him towards Xiao Ding. Simultaneously, he swallowed a blood-red pill, his aura and speed surging. He charged straight at Xiao Ding, believing that if he could escape this place, no one would ever find him.

"Profound Tier High-grade Dou Skill: Wave Treading Slash!"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Lang's figure surged forward, appearing behind the bearded man as if he had teleported. Then, the Thumping Stick in his hand struck the back of the man's head.

It was unclear whether it was due to Xiao Lang's immense strength or the activation of a 55% stun effect, but the bearded man immediately fell unconscious.

Of course, the most crucial reason was that the bearded man had no intention of fighting, and Xiao Lang possessed a Dou Skill that allowed for rapid advancement. This attack succeeded because of these factors.

Otherwise, in a head-on confrontation, Xiao Lang would be no match for the bearded man, as they were separated by a major cultivation level, unless he possessed more unique water.
