Chapter 74: The Night Demon Demands a Life

aughed heartily, adding, "Remember also, 'To cultivate one's character, first nurture one's heart. Be neither hurried nor flustered, neither anxious nor agitated, only then can you attain the blessing...Ten minutes later, Zhou Qi and Wang Lin sat facing each other. Zhou Qi was beaming with joy and kept congratulating Wang Lin.

Wang Lin helplessly looked at Zhou Qi, "Brother, do you have to be so happy From the moment you entered until now, your laughter hasn't stopped."

"Haha, little brother, from now on we're family! Isn't that something to be happy about"

"Since you're so happy, big bro, let me tell you something that will sober you up."

Zhou Qi immediately retracted his smile and nervously looked at Wang Lin, "I'm saying, little brother, the contract has already been signed, so you can't go back on your word!"

"Don't worry, it's not on this side."

Then it's fine, other things are minor matters.

"What if I said that someone in your family wants to usurp the throne"

"Well, that's alright then. Our family.... what Us usurping the throne You're joking, little brother, right!"

Zhou Qi's original nonchalant expression immediately became one of surprise, followed by an air of unusual seriousness.

No matter what, one must maintain the current order now that they have achieved their current status.

“I heard it with my own ears.”

After finishing, Wang Lin repeated what Zhou Rong and his uncle had said.

"Little brother, are you sure you didn't hear wrong" Zhou Qi was still a bit disbelieving that Zhou Rong and his uncle would have such courage.

"I've told you everything they said, word for word. I only heard it by chance because I got lost. They probably didn't mean for me to hear them!"

"This is a big deal, I need to report it to the chief immediately. Thank you for the information."

Zhou Qi hurriedly got up, waved his hand at Wang Lin, and sped away.

Wang Lin sat on the chair for a while, then tried to lie down on the bed and rest. But as soon as he closed his eyes, the horrifying scene appeared again.

"Grass!"

He sat up angrily, muttering curses as he pulled out his phone and began another one-sided chat with Xiaoyue.

Zhou Qi rushed over, speeding all the way to the headman's study. After reporting, he ran inside.

"Flustered and disheveled, what a spectacle! You are now the leader of the younger generation, maturity and composure are essential!"

Hearing the sound of running, the chieftain's angry voice rose.

Zhou Qi followed the sound and saw that the chieftain wasn't looking at him. He was still staring at an unknown book.

He hurried over and stood before the chief.

"Chief! Wang Lin just told me something!"

"Oh He just left here not long ago. Is it news about him joining the family"

"No, I wouldn't have rushed over in such a hurry for just that news. It's about Zhou Rong and my uncle."

He cautiously looked around, finding no one was present. He then leaned forward, lowering his voice and carefully said to the chieftain.

Hearing about Zhou Rong and his uncle, the village head showed a slight interest for the first time, lifting his head to look directly at Zhou Qi.

Zhou Qi relayed Wang Lin's words to the chief once more. The chief, upon hearing this, merely smiled faintly.

"This is something I know about, and it's not a big problem."

"Chief, did you know about this all along Are you prepared"

"Well, I know everything that happened in the family. Besides, Zhou Rong and Zhou Kai have always been ambitious. I paid special attention to them."

Zhou Qi let out a deep breath after hearing this, and his heart finally settled down.

"That's good, I overthought it. The chieftain truly is a master strategist."

"Don't flatter me, you did a good job on this. I appreciate you coming to tell me as soon as you heard the news. There's a reward, what do you want"

“Chief of the Hui people, I don't want anything. If possible, could you please let my parents go I miss them.”

When the chieftain heard Zhou Qi's request, he was taken aback. Then, he sighed and looked at Zhou Qi with a complex expression. Anger, guilt, sadness, and relief flashed in his eyes.

"Well! That's right, it's been over ten years, it's time for your family to reunite."

"Go back first! Wait until all the outsiders in the estate have left before you go pick them up."

Zhou Qiwu heard this and was overjoyed. He immediately knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

The chieftain, seeing this, made no attempt to stop them. He could only sigh in his heart, "Thank goodness you have such excellent sons! Otherwise, I would have had to keep you locked up for life!"

Until his head was bloodied, the chieftain stopped Zhou Qi. "That's enough, how sincere are you If you want to thank me, just work hard for the development of the family!"

Zhou Qihong's eyes were red-rimmed, but she nodded resolutely.

"This is within my capabilities, I will definitely help the family develop and grow again!"

"Well, get out of here!"

"Yes"

After Zhou Qi left, the head of the Zhou family also sighed, "Xiao Kai! Even such important matters could be leaked, how can I rest assured to hand over the Zhou family to you!"

"If you are incompetent, then there is no need to keep you!"

His eyes gradually became firm, and the fates of Zhou Kai and Zhou Rong were also simultaneously determined.

"Chief! Chief!"

Another flustered figure ran out from outside the door. It was the middle-aged man who had just brought Wang Lin here.

The chief frowned. Today everyone seemed to be like this.

"Xiaojun, what's the matter that you're so hurried It made you run all the way."

"Chieftain! A visitor claiming to be a Night Demon has arrived at the estate!"

What Daredevil

The chieftain sprang to his feet, his face paling. "What is he doing here We've never had anything to do with him."

"I don't know, he only said he wanted to see you."

"Bring him here!"

He sat back down, forcing himself to calm down, and thought to himself, "The Zhou family shouldn't have anyone who could provoke the Night Demon. Could it be a business proposition It's impossible, even if it was a partnership they wouldn't come over in the middle of the night!"

"Well, whether it's good fortune or bad luck is something we can't escape. Let's just wait and see! On the safe side, I'd better call Lao Wang over."

He took out his phone, made a call, and then sat upright, waiting quietly for the arrival of the Night Demon.

Soon after, Zhou Jun brought a sinister-looking man into the study. The Zhou family head immediately stood up, his face full of smiles as he spoke.

"Lord Daredevil, your esteemed presence honors us. We deeply regret our lack of proper welcome and humbly ask for your forgiveness."

"Hmph, cut the crap. I'm here to take someone. Give me the person, and I'll leave immediately. Otherwise, some unpleasant things will happen, and I won't be responsible!"

He started threatening before he even finished his sentence, that's how domineering the Night Devil is.

The patriarch of the Zhou family did not dare to neglect, hurriedly inquiring, "I wonder which beast in my Zhou family has offended Lord Night Demon"

"You're not from the Zhou family, so what brings you to participate in your boring martial arts competition I think his name is Wang Lin"

The head of the Zhou family was stunned, his heart conflicted. Wang Lin was already a guest of the Zhou family. Should he risk offending the Night Demon to protect him

He was racking his brains, but still kept saying, "I wonder how that person offended you"

Daredevil was clearly getting impatient, muttering under his breath constantly.

"Damn it, stop wasting my time! Where is he!"

"Well, Lord Daredevil, our family martial arts tournament ended this afternoon. They're all gone now."

"Damn it, since I came here to find you looking for someone, I'm sure he's still here. Hurry up, my patience is limited, don't push me to explode!"

"Don't worry, don't worry. As long as he is still here with me, I will definitely bring him over. Please wait a moment, I'll go and invite him personally."

"Okay! I'll go with you! When I find him, I'll take him directly!"n and prepared to find a place for a nap. But just after lying down for not long, the phone rang."Hello Who is this" Wang Lin asked after answering the phone.“Hello, is this Mr. Wang Lin” A serious vo...
