Chapter 149: Taichu’s Underlings of the Ten Thousand Realms Hall

Chapter 149: Chapter 149: Taichu’s Underlings of the Ten Thousand Realms Hall

Ye Xuanxuan sat on the large, soft bed, her small, snow-white feet propped up, a mischievous smile on her face.

She had the classic spoiled princess attitude. She felt she had already subdued the rebellious man, so she was constantly putting on airs as the lady of the house.

She planned to humiliate Qin Tianxuan to make him submit to her completely.

A twisted mindset!

A glint appeared in Qin Tianxuan’s eyes. He strode over, his right hand clamping down on her foot like an iron vise.

Ye Xuanxuan grimaced in pain. "You—you’re hurting me!"

"Do you want me to cripple your foot?" Qin Tianxuan barked coldly. "Cut out that rotten attitude of yours!"

Ye Xuanxuan let out a cry, on the verge of tears, but the pain in her foot only intensified.

She was genuinely frightened now and began to beg for mercy through her pained sobs.

Qin Tianxuan released her, then picked up a wet wipe in disgust and scrubbed his hands furiously.

"What are you doing?! They’re clean! They don’t stink!"

"Shut up!"

Qin Tianxuan sat down across from her, determined to properly train this sister of Shuanghua’s.

"From now on, you’re going to fix every single one of your bad habits. I’m going to train you like a new recruit! I’ll make you into a capable person, not some parasite living off a rich family!"

"You gave your handprint! You’re going back on your word!" Ye Xuanxuan cursed. "You bastard! You filthy pervert! You’re shameless!"

Qin Tianxuan replied coolly, "How am I going back on my word? What have I failed to do?"

Well...

’Only then did Ye Xuanxuan realize that he had, in fact, done everything he’d promised.’

’He booked the hotel for her, and he massaged her foot when she asked.’

’It was just... his methods were despicable.’

Qin Tianxuan gave a demonic sneer. "I can do things for you, but do you think you’re qualified to decide *how* I do them or what methods I use? That pathetic contract of yours is riddled with loopholes. If you’re not smart enough, don’t play these kinds of games!"

With that, he picked up Ye Xuanxuan’s note, memorized the shopping list with a single glance, and turned to leave.

"Wait! This is my card. I know you don’t have any money. Get me the clothes as soon as possible!"

Qin Tianxuan straightened his clothes. "I’ll decide when and how I buy them. Also, when I get back, you will immediately tell me how to cure Weiwei. Otherwise, don’t blame me for getting nasty."

With that, he walked straight out the door.

Ye Xuanxuan was so furious she could grind her teeth to dust. In a fit of pique, she stripped naked, dove under the large covers, and sobbed while muttering curses.

Qin Tianxuan left the hotel and headed straight for Shenghua Hospital.

Inside the medical vehicle, Weiwei lay peacefully. Even in her coma, she was well cared for and remained just as beautiful.

Qin Tianxuan sat down and gently massaged Weiwei’s arms and calves to prevent muscle atrophy.

"Sir, we’ve arranged for Miss Niannian to attend a private elite school. The schedule is flexible, so she can start studying there for the time being."

"Also, Uncle Han and Aunt Jiang have been settled in the Celestial Joy Villa District, right behind Shenghua Hospital."

Qin Tianxuan nodded. He checked Weiwei’s medical data again, then asked, "Where is Taichu?"

Taichu of the Ten Thousand Realms Hall hadn’t returned to Da Xia in many years.

He had been ordered to venture into the Outer Dark World long ago and had since become one of its Great Demon Kings. As a result, his return this time was very low-key.

"Sir, Taichu is awaiting your orders at the International Hall on Daming Road."

The International Hall was a residence for personnel from outside the region. Taichu’s status was unique; for the sake of his missions, he possessed multiple identities, including one from the Outer world.

Qin Tianxuan nodded. He stayed with the comatose Weiwei for a while longer, his heart heavy with sorrow. He didn’t even touch the meal Lingsu had brought for him.

After leaving Shenghua Hospital, he hailed a cab. He reviewed the background information on the hospital while contacting Taichu.

「International Hall」

A group of people stood within a hidden courtyard.

His black trench coat billowed as Taichu stood proudly at the head of the group.

He was visibly excited. Stroking the stubble on his chin, he turned to the group of followers behind him. "This is the first time any of you have been to Da Xia, and it’s your first time meeting my boss. When he gets here, you’d better be on your best behavior!"

This group of followers were all from the Outer world.

Their identities were anything but simple. They were all major players in the Outer Dark World, as well as agents for powerful family-run financial groups from various nations.

A figure appeared before them.

As Qin Tianxuan strode in, an ecstatic Taichu rushed forward and pulled him into a hug.

Qin Tianxuan pushed him away, speechless. "You go to the Outer world and forget how to salute?"

Taichu immediately snapped to attention, bringing his arm across his chest in a salute. "It’s been too long, Big Bro!"

Qin Tianxuan was also very happy to see him. "When you left, you were still just a kid. Look at you now, all grown up and a Demon King of the Dark World."

Between brothers like them, few words were needed.

’Taichu couldn’t even count how many times Big Bro had saved his life.’

’Every single time, in his moments of greatest peril, Big Bro had come, risking his own life—ready to die to protect his little brother!’

At the thought, Taichu’s eyes grew moist. "Big Bro, I really want to come back to the team... back to working with you. The Outer world is so damn boring."

Qin Tianxuan smiled and glanced at the men behind him. "Are these your people?"

"Yes, sir. C’mon, you bunch of good-for-nothings, hurry up and greet my boss!"

The major players from the Outer world had already formed a line and now came forward one by one to pay their respects.

"William II, agent of the William Clan from Freedom City! It is an honor to meet you, Boss!"

He dropped to one knee, performing the highest Western gesture of reverence: kissing the ground at Qin Tianxuan’s feet.

Then came the next.

"Metropolitan Clark Financial! An honor, Boss!"

"The Bruce Clan of Gotham City! An honor, Boss!"

"Boss, I am your most loyal servant! Agent for the Constantine Clan from the City of Hell!"

...

After they had all paid their respects, Qin Tianxuan’s gaze suddenly fell on a blond man. "You’re the agent for the Bruce Clan?"

"Yes! I’m the number two man in the clan. They all call me the Bruce Godfather!" the man replied, extremely excited as he hastily introduced himself.

"Hm. Is your clan’s capital backing Shenghua Hospital?"

"Yes! We have many investments in Da Xia!"

Qin Tianxuan pulled out his phone and glanced at the file on Shenghua Hospital, confirming that it was indeed the Bruce Clan’s interference that was preventing the acquisition.

He smiled faintly. "I’ll be negotiating with Shenghua Hospital before sunset. Have Bruce be there."
