Mission: Seduce the Master!

The morning in the Xie family starts with the awakening of the heir Xie Hui. He was mostly popular here, but this popularity was negative.

Almost all the servants did not like him because many times he tried to harass them, and most of them were clearly against it. It was saved by the fact that many servants did not have a casual past, so even Xie Hui did not dare to touch them.

And so, his morning should have started as usual, but...

"Wh-what? You're saying that the Bai family from the capital supported our competitors, and our businesses are starting to lose profit?!" exclaimed Xie Hui and looked astonished at the man in front of him: "Is that true, uncle?"

"Mgm... unfortunately, it's true. But I can't understand their reason," the man answered.

This was Xie Hai, the head of the Xie family. He had a rough and ugly appearance, he was skinny. His eyes were gray, and the color of his hair was chestnut.

He was the biological father of Xie Qing, although it was hard to believe, as they differed greatly in appearance. His son did not inherit anything from his father!

"P-why did they even take such a step..." muttered Xie Hui dejectedly, sweat running down his forehead: "Did you send them a letter?"

"Yes. But I haven't received an answer yet. We need to wait a little longer, and in the meantime, we need to deal with staying afloat. The pressure is too strong," muttered Xie Hai, and then sighed: "Sigh, I still can't manage as well as Xie Meilin."

"Again with the old stuff? Stop mentioning that snake already," said Xie Hui angrily, hitting the table. He looked angry and evil: "You already know that to strengthen your power, you had to get rid of her. Fortunately, we were able to convince the elders. In this, there is a contribution of that trash Xie Qing, who became the reason why they decided to support me in this matter.

Have you forgotten our deal?!"

"No, I haven't forgotten," Xie Hai replied in a calm voice: "I'm helping you become the official heir, and you give me another thirty years of rule. After I hand over the position of head of the family, you will give me the position of chief elder."

"That's right! Think about it! The people I'm collaborating with can bring us a ton of money, you understand?!" Xie Hui enthusiastically told with a terrifying smile: "They have a damn cultivator at the Soul Integration level. With such partners, our Xie family can become great!"

Xie Hui looked excited, and when he spoke, he accidentally sprayed his saliva, which flew out of his mouth like a machine gun. It could be said by this how excited he was. Xie Hai's reaction was more calm.

"Hm... I'm still worried," Xie Hai said, frowning, which made him look even uglier: "You said they are reliable people, but I don't believe it much. If it weren't for the fact that you are acting as a guarantor, as well as my brother, I wouldn't have agreed."

"Stop doubting already. We can give them that mysterious cultivation technique of our family in exchange for great power in the capital! Then even the Bai family won't be able to stand against us!" insisted Xie Hui and eventually made Xie Hai nod.

"All right, you're right. I shouldn't have doubted you."

Hearing that Xie Hai agreed with his words, Xie Hui made a flattering smile and praised the head of the sect for his foresight, and mentally cursed him.

"Old bastard! Do you want to spoil my whole plan with your doubts?!"

Five years ago, Xie Hui was able to meet with a mysterious personality who introduced himself as the "Red Wolf". He said that he was interested in the cultivation technique that was under the highest protection of the Xie family.

This technique was incomprehensible to anyone, but apparently, it was extremely ancient and valuable, so it was guarded like the apple of the eye.

However, for Xie Hui, it was just a book that was gathering dust in the safe. Therefore, he agreed to exchange it for the political and financial support of the mysterious person.

Although at first, he doubted it, Xie Hui very soon became convinced that the mysterious person was not lying to him. The help that he provided to the Xie family was amazing. In one fell swoop, they overtook all their competitors!

Even the poison that was injected into Xie Meilin's body through food was passed on by the "Red Wolf". Since that day, Xie Hui has been actively cooperating with them, and today a meeting was scheduled.

He looked at Xie Hai's back, who was leaving the room, and Xie Hui's eyes showed contempt.

"Wow!"

A loud female scream filled with admiration was heard. Fang Lan looked admiringly at her portrait, and her eyes sparkled.

"How did you do it?! I look exactly like I'm looking in the mirror!" she marveled.

"Hehe. Sister Fang, I'm not an amateur. For me, such a thing is a piece of cake," Xie Qing replied, proudly puffing out his chest and smiling.

"You're right! Damn, what a genius you are! Younger brother, I admit, you're cool!" Fang Lan exclaimed loudly. She was in a good mood.

Xie Qing smiled and folded his arms behind his back, looking like an old Daoist. He enjoyed being praised and shamelessly accepted it, without even thinking of being modest.

He worked a little on the portrait and made Fang Lan's facial features look much more beautiful.

...At the moment, it can be said that he used the magic of filters.

"Can I advertise you to my sisters? They will be glad to use your services! I'm in shock at how you can draw something so good?!" Fang Lan enthusiastically said, not forgetting to flatter him, completely forgetting that Xie Qing was her younger brother by sect.

"Hehe, if you do that, I'm even ready to draw for free once! It doesn't matter if it's a portrait or a full body!"

"Hooray!"

Fang Lan joyfully exclaimed and barely restrained herself from hugging Xie Qing! This young man was too pleasant to the eyes!

Looking at her portrait, Fang Lan felt satisfied. She decided that she would put it in her room.

After a few minutes, the girl transferred 2500 Contribution Points to Xie Qing and paid 150,000 Huang.

"Sister Fang," Xie Qing said, who was allowed to call her that. He looked a little surprised, pointing to the bag of money: "This wasn't written in the task."

"Hm? Are you talking about this tip?" Fang Lan asked in response, puzzled, and waved her hand: "It's nothing. Your portrait is worth millions of Huang, but since I don't have that much money because of the recently acquired artifact, I can't pay you... I'm sorry."

Xie Qing briefly lost his speech. She so easily brushed off such an amount of money, which would be enough for a family of ordinary people to live carefree for a month... this was indeed the aura of a rich mommy!

"Sister Fang Lan, your beauty was already enough payment for me..." Xie Qing said with a smile took the bag of money from her hands, and then added, not paying attention to the girl's embarrassment: "But since you decided to give me such a gift, who am I to refuse?"

"...Pff"

Fang Lan smiled and felt that this young man was very funny. He was not only handsome but acting so shamelessly, he looked even more handsome and cute.

"Of course. I insist," she played along with him with a smile.

***

Bai Bai, with bloodshot eyes, watched as Xie Qing smiled and walked out of Fang Lan's house, and the girl waved goodbye to him. Her face looked happy.

"She should have smiled only at me... this son of a bitch," he growled, clenching his teeth. But then a smile appeared on his face – his emotions were such that he seemed to be a psycho: "But your family will feel my wrath. And let them not blame me, Bai Bai, for breaking the egg with a stone."

After he found out about Xie Qing's family, his first step was to find out potential weak points, of which this family had many. One of them was their competitor, who was currently suppressed because the Xie family took away their businesses.

And so, as soon as Bai Bai asked his family to help with this issue, they responded and arranged things so that the Xie family had a bellyful of bitter cucumbers.

"Blame your bastard offspring, who set his sights on the future wife of this young master," Bai Bai thought with a smile, not understanding that he was only helping Xie Qing.

***

Xie Hui was panicking and walking around the whole room. Xie Hai held an envelope with a letter in his hand, where there was only one word: "war"!

"Psychos... they're psychos!" exclaimed Xie Hui after a long silence. His face was pale: "Why are these freaks targeting us? The Bai family shouldn't give a damn about such small businessmen like us!"

"..."

Xie Hai said nothing. He was also shocked by the determination of the Bai family to put pressure on them. They were already beginning to feel how money was flowing out of their pocket. It was too terrible.

Many partners and allied families were breaking agreements as if a lizard was getting rid of its tail to avoid danger.

The bridge, which served as their alliance with other partners, was over an abyss. And their allies cut all the ropes, leaving their lives hanging over the abyss, from where only hopeless darkness stretched.

Most of their businesses were in decline. Many enterprises were simply attacked by robbers, and Xie Hai could swear that they were experts from the Bai family! But even if they knew about it, they couldn't do anything as a result! It was terrible!

"Who is this bastard who doomed us to such a fate?" complained Xie Hai.

***

"Apchoo! I'm starting to sneeze a lot lately," muttered Xie Qing, wiping his nose with a napkin.

"Did you catch a cold, disciple Xie?" a female voice sounded.

The young man smiled and shook his head, looking at the beautiful woman in front of him.

"Of course not, Sect Master Lian."
