Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 740 740: Abnormal Hobby

A dragon soared among the mountains, riding the clouds and navigating the mist. This was either a figment of someone's imagination or a genuinely strange occurrence in the mountains. The land of Yu State had been remarkable since ancient times. Now that Spiritual Energy was recovering, the emergence of a dragon might indeed be possible.

"Good." Qin Heng nodded slightly. "Once we reach Yu State, I'll go see what's really going on."

Song Ningran thanked Qin Heng.

The two talked for a while longer, discussing both Qin Yun and their personal matters.

Late into the quiet night, Song Ningran returned to her room.

Qin Heng also returned to his room, his eyes slowly closing. His divine soul sank into a meditative state, and he began to nurture and refine it—at his level of cultivation, he had long since outgrown the need for sleep.

「Three days later」

Qin Heng accompanied Qin Yun to school.

The school was bustling that day due to a unified check-up, with many parents accompanying their children. All sorts of vehicles nearly clogged the school entrance.

"Wow! So many people!" Qin Yun exclaimed in surprise. She hadn't anticipated such a crowd and whispered to Qin Heng, "Brother, should we go back? I'm actually a bit scared."

"There's nothing to be afraid of; I'm right here with you," Qin Heng said with a smile. "It's just a simple test. After it's over, I'll take you out for some tasty food!"

"Okay!" Qin Yun was a little foodie. Whenever Qin Heng promised her good food, most problems could be solved. But just as she agreed, she looked around and whispered, "But I heard the check-up involves drawing blood. I'm really a bit scared."

"Don't worry, they don't need to draw blood." Qin Heng waved his hand, smiling. "I've already contacted their leaders. This test uses a new method; no blood draw is needed."

"Really?" Qin Yun's eyes instantly lit up, and she relaxed considerably. She wasn't actually afraid of the test, just of drawing blood and the pain. "That's truly great!"

Now that she knew the test wouldn't involve a blood draw, the weight instantly lifted from Qin Yun's heart. She became excited and cheerful, already planning what she would eat later.

Just then, a cold laugh suddenly sounded. "Heh, coaxing a young girl requires some skill, doesn't it?"

It was from a tall, thin young man in his twenties, with a distinguished and rather handsome appearance. His gaze towards Qin Heng was filled with disdain as he sneered, "A good-for-nothing like you can probably only deceive your own sister with lies. Do you realize? When she learns the truth, she'll be even more disappointed and frightened."

This young man clearly despised Qin Heng, looking at him as if he were trash. His tone was filled with scorn.

"What do you mean by that?!" Qin Yun immediately became angry upon hearing the young man's words. She turned her head to glare at him and said, "Who are you anyway? What right do you have to talk about my brother like that?"

"Heh, little sister, you sure are protective of your worthless brother," the young man said with a smirk. "Do you know? When your brother just claimed the test wouldn't involve drawing blood, he was lying to you. This test *does* involve drawing blood—four full vials of it!"

"What?!" Qin Yun was taken aback, a look of shock on her face. Then she shook her head and said, "Impossible. My brother never lies to me. If he says they won't be drawing blood, then they definitely won't be!"

"It seems your talent for fooling your own sister is quite strong. Trash like you can probably only resort to such things. Waste!" the young man sneered at Qin Heng. "A piece of trash like you doesn't even deserve to be her brother."

After speaking, he moved closer to Qin Yun, revealing a gentle smile. He said, "Little sister, what's your name? I am Gao Wenyuan, the founder and CEO of Future Film Technology Co., Ltd. Your brother is full of lies and utterly shameless. He's a complete waste and has no right to be your brother at all. Why don't you let me be your brother instead? If you agree, I'll definitely..."

SLAP!!

A crisp slapping sound interrupted Gao Wenyuan, cutting his words short.

"Be *my* brother?" Qin Yun snorted coldly. "You're not worthy!"

Then, she turned and looped her arm through Qin Heng's. Pointing at Gao Wenyuan, she said, "Bro, is this guy sick in the head or something? Daring to look down on you—who does he think he is!"

"Probably because he's living in a dream." Qin Heng smiled, unconcerned. He started walking with Qin Yun towards the school's inspection site and said, "Come on, I'll take you to see what this inspection test is really all about." Although that Gao Wenyuan seemed a bit unhinged, his words didn't sound like a complete fabrication. Xue Qinan had indeed instructed the various parties to use new testing methods, but it's not certain all locations will comply. After all, the new methods I previously provided significantly improved safety and accuracy, but they also increased costs somewhat. If local authorities want to cut costs, or even line their own pockets, they might not implement the procedures Xue Qinan mandated. Even if investigated later, they could always use the excuse of insufficient time.

Watching Qin Heng and Qin Yun walk away, Gao Wenyuan trembled with anger, his teeth gritted and his face ashen.

"Damn it! Damn it! I, Gao Wenyuan, graced you by noticing you, offering to be your brother! That's a blessing you couldn't even beg for! Yet you'd forsake someone like me, a CEO with a net worth in the billions, for that worthless loser! You're blind! You'll definitely regret this!"

"And your brother—he's too arrogant! Way too arrogant! Who does he think he is, daring to defy me? He's just courting death. I'll make sure you both pay!!"

Gao Wenyuan was twenty-eight years old. He had founded Future Film Technology Co., Ltd., a company now valued at over five billion. With personal assets exceeding three billion, he was undoubtedly a successful man.

However, his hobby was extremely perverse.

He enjoyed 'adopting' beautiful girls who had brothers, becoming their new 'brother.' He would then emotionally destroy their real brothers and, finally, take the girls sexually, often right in front of their devastated older brothers.

Extremely malicious!

Qin Yun was sweet and adorable. The moment Gao Wenyuan saw her, he locked onto her as his next target, determined to conquer her. Naturally, Qin Heng became a thorn in his side, an obstacle he had to remove.

"Heh, you loser, you have no idea who's conducting the inspection this time!" Gao Wenyuan sneered. Watching Qin Heng and Qin Yun's retreating backs, a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he followed them. He thought, If you dare to be arrogant in front of *them*, just wait for death, you loser! Your sister... I'll take *very* good care of her! Heh heh heh, HAHAHAHA!!
