Qiao Mu couldn’t help pursing her lips at this information.

  They put in so much effort to take care of just four stalks of spiritual medicine. If she did the same with the thousand or so spiritual medicines in Paradise Planet’s medicinal garden, then wouldn’t that mean she would have to squat in the field night and day without eating or drinking?

  Everybody did not know what she was thinking about, but they could guess from the disdain in her bright gaze.

  “Make way, make way. Don’t block the path.”


  A loud ruckus came from the floor below. The people inside the room hadn’t paid much attention at the beginning.

  They only exchanged glances when they heard disorderly footsteps heading for their room.

  *Bam!* Someone kicked open Qiao Mu’s door, which then only pitifully swung open sideways on a single hinge.

  Qiao Mu’s gaze turned cold as she looked toward the doorway.

  They saw Kou Hongzhen leading a group of burly and thickset henchmen inside to block the doorway.

  “Kou Hongzhen, why did you come again??” The little fatty Kou Hongwen promptly jumped up from his chair and glared at Kou Hongzhen angrily.

  “Seize them all!” Kou Hongzhen didn’t waste time talking to the little fatty and just pointed at Qiao Mu and company with two fingers.

  The twenty or so burly henchmen who immediately swarmed in showed off their bulging trademark muscles.

  “What are you guys doing??” The little fatty shouted, “Kou Hongzhen, you still dare to mess with us?”


  “So what if I came to mess with you today. What can you guys do about it?” Kou Hongzhen retorted.

  He had spent two weeks as a pumpkin head! He remembered every single instance that he got mocked and ridiculed during this period of time.

  The main culprit was this Kou Hongwen. He was going to make this country bumpkin regret ever offending the young sir of the Kou Clan!

  “Kou Hongzhen!!” Just as the little fatty was going to lunge over, Qi Xuanxuan grabbed him.

  Qiao Mu waved her hand, directing twenty plus immobilization talismans over to immobilize those intruding henchmen on the spot!

  Kou Hongzhen gave a shudder and hastily backed away. Yet just as he was about to flee out the door, he fell to the floor after getting hit in the back of his head.

  Kou Hongzhen felt a splitting pain in his head and kept rolling back and forth on the floor. He painfully turned around but could see no one outside in the hallway.

  Kou Hongzhen’s heart gave a jolt, and he couldn’t help but panic.

  The thing that hit the back of his head just now obviously came from someone outside in the hallway.

  Yet how come he didn’t see anyone?

  Duanmu Qing’s gaze flickered, and he looked at Qiao Mu.

  He had been standing next to her the entire time, so he saw it when Qiao Mu’s eyes flashed red just now.

  This was… from a superpower?

  Qiao Mu kicked aside someone in the way and walked up to Kou Hongzhen, who was rolling back and forth. She frowned in displeasure. “The beating last time wasn’t enough?”


  How come this person was like a fly that wouldn’t stop buzzing around?

  Kou Hongzhen glared at her while clutching his head as he rolled about. “You dare touch me? If you dare hit me again this time, I’ll make sure that the d*mn fatso’s parents die miserably.”


  Qiao Mu’s gaze instantly turned sharp.

  The little fatty also charged over with a shout and gave Kou Hongwen a hard kick. “You took my parents hostage?”
