Chapter 631: Rules Announced! The Whole Nest Besieged!
Inside the villa.
Su Yang stepped out of the Portal and glanced at the clock on the wall.
He discovered it was already 3 a. m., and the friends had all already fallen asleep.
"I'm tired too; I'll take a bath tomorrow," Su Yang said, taking off his Cloak and Mask and tossing them onto the sofa.
As he headed toward the bedroom, a corner of his eye caught a pair of sneaky eyes.
Su Yang's tiger frame shivered, and he said irritably, "What are you doing hanging around the doorway at this hour of the night?"
"Squeak—"
The door opened, and Lin Yang, wrapped in an air‑conditioned blanket, tiptoed out, carefully scanning the surroundings to confirm no one was there before asking:
"Did you just get back?"
"Yeah, I just finished the meeting. Why aren't you asleep yet?" Su Yang yawned.
"I couldn't fall asleep because you weren't back; I was afraid something might happen to you."
"... Could you be a bit considerate and hurry back to your room? There's a big announcement tomorrow."
Lin Yang wanted to speak but held back, his face tangled with conflict.
Su Yang halted his steps, puzzled, "What's wrong? Anything else?"
Lin Yang thought it over, gritted his teeth and said, "I've found that Jiang Chengyu is problematic."
"What problem?"
"He seems to think with his lower half. Isn't Yan Ke supposed to be away? Tonight he slipped into Yu Ning's room while you were gone," Lin Yang whispered a little report.
"Is that really happening?"
"Of course!" Lin Yang's energy surged, "Yu Ning is pure as ice, beautiful, and gentle; we can't let that pig trample her."
"So what precaution did you take?"
"I thought of a hero rescuing a beauty; I couldn't let this bouquet sit on cow dung, so I grabbed a bowl of soup and went to knock on the door."
"Then guess what? As soon as I entered, I saw that Jiang Chengyu guy sitting on the bedside with Yu Ning, his hand improperly draped over her shoulder. I immediately guessed he was up to no good," Lin Yang recounted.
Su Yang imagined the scene, blinked, "If it's mutually willing, what's it got to do with you?"
"The problem is she's inexperienced; girls like her are most easily deceived by Huang Mao, and you know her character," Lin Yang said with a hint of reluctance.
"Do you treat this like a moral tribunal? Those created dolls have nothing to do with you, stop worrying about them."
"Besides, Yu Ning may have eaten more salt than you've ever eaten rice; she has an internal scale, knowing what she should and shouldn't do."
"You seem so concerned about her; do you have feelings for her?" Su Yang raised an eyebrow.
Lin Yang, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, roared, "When I speak seriously you just ignore it; why is your mind so odd that you can drag this onto me?"
"Fine, I won't talk with you. Go to sleep, seriously..."
As he said so, he shook his head, swayed his brain, and went back to his room, shutting the door.
Su Yang's gaze turned odd, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Stop making noise, I want to sleep!"
From inside the room came Lin Yang's protest.
Su Yang chuckled dumbly, taking off his clothes as he said, "Some people just have a hard mouth; they clearly care but never admit it."
———
The next day.
Because Su Yang stayed up too late last night, he didn't get up for the scheduled training time.
Lin Yang and Qin Weiyang didn't call him either; the two proceeded with the plan as usual.
It wasn't until noon, at twelve o'clock, that the Screen suddenly lit up.
The New Rule was announced, and the whole villa erupted like a boiling pot.
"Su Yang! Su Yang!"
Lin Yang, frantic, rushed into the room and yanked the still‑sleeping Su Yang up.
The sudden awakening sparked an unnamed anger in Su Yang's heart.
Before he could react, Lin Yang, looking panicked, said, "Something's wrong, the New Rule has come out!"
Hearing that, Su Yang instantly became more alert, hurriedly dressed, and climbed down to the living room.
On the Screen appeared many lines of small text, which were the proposal he and Tiger had drafted.
The rule's details were much more refined, orderly, and clear at a glance.
"This is..." Jiang Chengyu's pupils suddenly contracted, then a strong excitement flushed his face.
"Has Heaven opened its eyes? This rule feels tailor‑made for us!" Ximen Zhirou exclaimed in shock.
"Wait!" Qin Weiyang suddenly thought of something, snapped her head around and leaned close to Su Yang.
A suddenly close, stunningly beautiful face approached, and Su Yang instinctively tilted his head back a few degrees.
Qin Weiyang examined closely and asked, "You went to the meeting yesterday; could these two rules..."
Su Yang touched his nose, nodded, and said, "One of them concerns me."
Hiss!
Everyone inhaled a sharp breath of cold air at his words.
They knew Su Yang's character well.
He's definitely not the type who opens his mouth and lies.
Only...
Yet after learning this, they were still extremely surprised.
Their top superior actually participated in drafting the rule?!
And it succeeded!?
"Su Yang, you're really coming?" Lin Yang widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.
"Boss, you're awesome." Xi Jun couldn't help but raise his thumb.
"Indeed, this new rule was tailor‑made for me, and strictly speaking it also includes everyone." Su Yang nodded slightly.
"So the rule you advocate is—looting dependents?" Luo Shuangshuang asked.
"That's right." Su Yang nodded.
"You want Wan Shi Tong?" Qin Weiyang saw through his thoughts at a glance.
"The first step, of course, is to start with Wan Shi Tong; the importance of this guy is self‑evident, and I believe everyone has already grasped the terrifying nature of his Innate Talent."
"As for the next steps… I intend to recruit talented and extraordinary people from across the world to form an All‑Purpose Team!" Su Yang said.
Forming…
Team?
Imagining hundreds, even thousands of squads, everyone couldn't help but feel their blood boil.
They had just lost two companions, and their hearts remained heavy.
At the same time, they might also face the possibility of continued attrition.
Therefore, the proposal Su Yang put forward can greatly reduce losses, and even profit from it!
For a powerful team, the benefits are boundless while the drawbacks are imperceptibly slight.
"So… the targets we select for this gamble are still…" Lin Yang's mouth curved into a sinister arc.
"That's right, still them!" Su Yang nodded.
Jiang Chengyu flexed his fists, sneering, "I want to see just how capable Wan Shi Tong is, and whether it can survive our encirclement."
"The proposal‑passed reward is now being distributed; player Su Yang, please collect it."
"Reward Faith Value 500."
"Because player Su Yang has the Double Reward Mechanism, the Faith Value changes to 1000."
A series of messages floated in his brain.
Now his Faith Value has reached 2360!
"A single proposal only worth 500?" Su Yang thought to himself, feeling a slight disappointment.
But on further thought, he felt relieved.
After all, this is merely superficial profit; the real gain is the rule that has been promulgated!
Thinking this, Su Yang couldn't help but look toward the Villa across the street, a flash of Cold Light flashing in his eyes,
"I want to see…"
"Just how much wealth you actually have!"
