The business counterattack of a wretched man: the temptation of two goddesses

The night is dark and the lights are dim. I walked alone on the street and looked at the heart of the empire, slowly waking up. This is a city full of contradictions. The poor live in the streets and the rich lead the country from high palaces. They weave ugly conspiracies in their struggle for power, while the deceived people are still struggling for a bite to eat.

I stopped and looked at one of the lighted windows. There were bursts of laughter and laughter coming from the window. This was a big family night. The husband, wife, and children sat around the table and enjoyed an ordinary but happy dinner. The light is so warm that it drives away the coldness and shadows of the streets.

I stopped for a long time, but was interrupted by an old man."Young man, would you like to read your palm?" He held a shabby book in his hand and looked kind.

My heart moved and I couldn't help but ask:"Is your palmistry accurate?」

「Hahaha," the old man smiled,"I have been setting up a stall on this street corner for decades, and I have to be sure to spot it when I want to see it."

I stretched out my hand doubtfully, and the old man looked at it carefully, and suddenly his expression changed,"Young man, you will spend your whole life here. , I am destined to be extraordinary."

I was shocked in my heart, but my face remained calm,"Oh? Old man, tell me, why am I extraordinary?」

「The lines on your palms are deep," the old man said mysteriously,"and there is a hurdle in your destiny. If you cross it, you will have a smooth career and a bright future." I couldn't help but move in my heart. Isn't that hurdle the only way to defeat Luo? Young Courtyard? It seems that my luck is really good

「Old man," I said with a smile,"then I have to thank you for my fate."

Before I finished speaking, I took out a few pieces of silver from my pocket and threw them into his hat. He nodded to me gently, and I turned and left.

There are still countless secrets in this empire waiting for me to uncover. And this time, I will no longer be a lone explorer. Because, I have found my partner.

Ai Bu Xing, this young man who was once plotted against, framed by, and abandoned by others, now holds the key to changing his destiny. And all he has to do is use this key to open the door to the truth.

The night is still dark, but my steps have not stopped. After leaving the old man, I thought to myself, although the matter of Luo Shaoyuan has been settled, I cannot stop if I want to gain a foothold in this imperial capital. I cast my eyes on the towering city walls in the distance, thinking to myself that I must find out the secrets of the palace.

Just when I was about to look for the next clue, I heard hurried footsteps. As soon as I turned around, I saw a young man running towards me with a face full of panic, holding a dagger with a cold light in his hand.

「Ai Bu Xing, hide quickly!"The boy shouted breathlessly.

I raised my eyebrows,"Boy, why are you panicking? You don't need to be so nervous when dealing with one or two scoundrels, right?"」

「No, no, no, this time is different! He said eagerly,"They are from the Thousand Faces Sect!"

The Thousand Faces Sect is the most mysterious killer organization in the imperial capital. It seems that that guy from Luo Shaoyuan is really determined to die with his eyes open, and he actually sent people to hunt him down.

「The show is coming."A cold light flashed in my eyes,"Since they are here, let them see what Ai Buxing can do."

The young man was stunned for a moment, and then he saw the smile on the corner of my mouth, and seemed to have been infected by my confidence. His hand holding the dagger relaxed slightly, and his breathing became calmer.

Not long after, dull footsteps were heard in the dark night, and many killers wearing night clothes appeared like ghosts. They all wear masks, and each mask has a different face, just like a thousand-faced opera god, making it difficult for people to distinguish their true faces.

「Want to play hide and seek?"I whispered and took out a marble-like object from my arms.

The young man looked at me twisting the utensil and asked doubtfully,"What is this?"」

「Explosive Arrow Beads, my own improved gadget." I smiled,"Just a slight throw——」

Before I finished speaking, I threw the explosive arrow balls at the masked killers. In an instant, dozens of arrows flew out from inside, and the killers were forced to flee in all directions.

「There are quite a few weird props."The young man showed admiration.

I withdrew my gaze and said,"Let's leave these clowns to the city guards. We still have serious things to do."」

「Where to go?"The boy followed, curious and excited

「royal palace."I looked at the approaching dawn on the horizon,"There is a big secret there that can change the situation. As for what it is, hey, follow closely, and you will know." The horns of the city guards gradually sounded, and our figures It had disappeared into the hazy morning light and was quietly approaching its next target - the seemingly indestructible depths of the palace.

This operation may be more dangerous than any previous expedition. But I know that it is these unknowns and dangers that make the will to survive in desperate situations shine the most dazzlingly. Ai Buxing has never been afraid of challenges. In fact, it is this kind of adventure that can keep life fresh and exciting.

How many more disturbances are waiting for us in this small imperial capital? I chuckled, the ambition in my chest gradually rising like the rising sun.
