Chapter 722: Liu Zixuan's Solo Foray into the Demon Cave

Liu Zixuan said casually, "No need, is this little business worth celebrating? If I hadn't come personally this time, I'm afraid you, General Manager Wang, wouldn't show up. Stay honestly in the hotel; I'm going out to gauge the public sentiment."

"Arrange the opening of the farmers' market in the next two days, with only one requirement: the goods must be genuine and reasonably priced, ensuring benefits to the people, and the entry speed must be fast. I give you three days; in three days you must support the supply of daily necessities and hardware goods for the whole Lieshan County."

The somewhat thin General Manager Wang said, "As you say, being able to do business with you is my good fortune."

Liu Zixuan was about to leave, heard this, and stopped: "But don't call it good fortune; in Lieshan County, it's probably not that easy."

"I believe you know something about the situation here; there's a Local Tyrant, and if we're unlucky, our market could be ruined before it even opens."

"In the past, some owners thought of doing business in Lieshan County; they all returned looking disheveled, and some almost lost their fortunes and lives here. Do you know why?"

General Manager Wang flashed two big white teeth, chuckled, and said, "As you put it, they are they, we are we. Your investment here is a blessing for the Common People, and if I can provide some service with the Common People here, my ancestral tomb would even emit green smoke."

"As for those unsavory thug methods that can't be shown publicly, they're outdated; I stopped using that approach long ago. If they want to play, I'll go along."

Liu Zixuan finally nodded. Though she seemed like a chaotic little witch who acts without thinking, she's actually meticulous. The last time she handled the Xiushui Mountain scenery in Xiushui Township, she had a top expert in neck‑vertebra development with her.

"This time, it specifically selected the socially connected General Manager Wang, who also has people above him, to undertake this petty business that both of them disregard."

"General Liu, the environment here in Lieshan County isn't great; shall I have someone accompany you? Even if something happens, they can protect you," General Manager Wang said from behind when Liu Zixuan was about to go out alone.

Liu Zixuan said, "Lieshan County may be unstable, but we have allies. I arranged for Su Yang to go out with me; would they dare mess with the Vice County Magistrate? Not only in this tiny Lieshan County, even in the famous Jingcheng Club, Su Yang might not suffer losses."

"Ah, never mind, I won't discuss such high‑level matters with you. I know what you're thinking; when the chance comes, I'll introduce County Magistrate Su to you."

General Manager Wang, still smiling, said, "Alright, alright, alright."

General Manager Wang was one of the few in their circle who knew Su Yang's background; of course, even if he didn't, Liu Zixuan's reputation alone would make him eagerly come.

As soon as Liu Zixuan stepped out, she called Su Yang, saying she was going to a nightclub called Night Color to dance.

Su Yang immediately felt very troubled; all such venues in Lieshan County are run by Geng Miao and his group. As a Vice County Magistrate, going to such a place would be intolerable in public opinion. But Liu Zixuan insisted, so he had no choice but to let her go with him.

After hanging up, just as he was about to leave, he received a call from Zhou Ruohan. Zhou Ruohan called him every night, which had become part of his routine; no matter how busy he was, he would patiently chat with her.

Although they aren't married yet, they already treat each other as partners; while he's in Lieshan County and can't be with the pregnant Zhou Ruohan, a long phone call is a mutual comfort.

But Zhou Ruohan was in an especially good mood today, chatting nonstop about everything. Su Yang could only listen patiently, since it was all about today's hospital check‑up, which is important for both of them and their families.

Then Su Yang recounted what had just happened.

Zhou Ruohan said, "It seems you've made great progress, numb the opponent, let them lower their guard, then strike back. This White Iron Army is no mere individual; in any era, it would be torn apart."

The call went on for over ten minutes without ending. Liu Zixuan, who had been waiting in the hotel lobby for a long time, grew impatient; while Su Yang was still on the call, she simply hailed a taxi and headed straight to the nightclub.

Deep down, he had seen every kind of scene. In a small place like Lieshan County, even legendary ones don't bother him. No one in Jingcheng dares to touch him easily now; even if there are frictions, it's just a loss of some money, never something more outrageous.

Su Yang's last incident at the Jingcheng Club was a massive accident, essentially trampling on personal dignity. In his view, that's as bad as it gets; how malicious can humanity become?

Coincidentally, as soon as he stepped out, a taxi arrived; after he gave the address, the taxi took him straight to the Night Color nightclub.

Inside the nightclub, smoke swirled, the lights were dim, and the cheap perfume on the women almost made him retch and leave.

But he held back; he wasn't just there to soak in the cheap atmosphere—his main goal was to see if these audacious scoundrels were also conducting unsavory deeds openly. If possible, he'd act chivalrously and stand up for the abused women.

She just found a seat when two non‑conformists wearing ripped jeans, big iron chains, one with dyed yellow hair and the other green, approached.

"Miss, alone?"

"You look like you're from out of town; want to dance a couple of songs? But you're too shy to invite me."

"How about this: the two of us volunteer ourselves; you pick whichever you like, and we won't fight over it."

The taller one with yellow hair tried to reach for Liu Zixuan's hand, but she dodged and scolded, "What are you two? Stay as far away as possible; you trash think you can dance with me?"

The yellow‑haired thug snarled, "On this stage in Lieshan County, no one dares to deny us face. You'd better dance obediently with us and have fun, or don't blame us for being rude."

"Fine, don't think you can threaten us, because threats mean nothing in Lieshan County. Follow our instructions, or you'll regret being human."

The yellow‑haired thug's vicious threat would have terrified any normal girl, but he faced the little witch Liu Zixuan.

Liu Zixuan, without a word, grabbed a bottle from the table and, with a bang, smashed it onto the yellow‑haired man's head.
