The moment you step through the gate, the lights inside the villa instantly turn on, transforming the entire hall into a dreamlike, dazzling spectacle.
A magnificent chandelier hung from the grand ceiling, casting a soft and warm glow.
The priceless vase stood quietly at the entrance, its exquisite patterns vividly dancing under the light.
The murals unfold with the grand Aura, depicting a scene as poetic and picturesque as a painting.
Compared to this villa, Shrek's double room, which didn't even have a toilet, was like comparing dog shit to heaven.
Bai Zhou had heard of the extravagant lifestyles of some top nobles, but had never seen them.
Now, I've certainly broadened my horizons...
If he hadn't said anything, probably no one would have guessed that this was just a student dormitory...
Damn rich people!
This is absolutely outrageous!
Bai Zhou considers himself a nouveau riche, but now it seems he probably can't even afford the hallway of this villa...
After all, he was at most a landowner, far inferior to a powerful capitalist.
"There are many rooms downstairs, you can choose any one you like. Each room is cleaned regularly by a professional, so they should all be clean."
Orange pointed to several large rooms downstairs and said, "Dao. "
"Alright, this one will do." Bai Zhou didn't dawdle and randomly picked a small room in the middle, then went straight in.
"Alright, it's getting late. Remember to get up early tomorrow morning to prepare breakfast for me. Goodnight~" Orange smiled sweetly at Bai Zhou, then took light steps and went straight upstairs.
...
"Phew~ At least I have a place to stay~"
Bai Zhou lay in bed, smelling the faint fragrance in the room, feeling completely relaxed.
While staying in a hotel is fine, having a place to stay long-term always feels more comfortable and cozy.
Moreover, he doesn't live alone; he has a young and beautiful roommate.
Bai Zhou's feelings at this moment can be summarized in six words: "My 18-Year-Old Female Tenant"
In short, the future is promising.
"I thought Xu Tianran would be a problem, but I didn't expect that Ju Zi would take care of him so easily…" Bai Zhou lay on the bed, a slight smile playing on his lips.
When Ju Zi left, Bai Zhou naturally left a mental imprint on her.
With Bai Zhou's current mental force, mental imprints not only have the function of location tracking, but also the ability to eavesdrop.
Bai Zhou heard everything Ju Zi and Xu Tianran said.
Bai Zhou never expected that Xu Tianran would be so easily dealt with by Ju Zi.
As an outsider, Bai Zhou could clearly perceive the various abnormalities and loopholes in Ju Zi's words, but Xu Tianran ignored all these unusual points and instead believed Ju Zi's words without a doubt.
It's not that Xu Tianran is too stupid, but rather that Ju Zi is too clever.
Over the years, Ju Zi has been extremely loyal to Xu Tianran, even risking her life to protect him, which has earned her Xu Tianran's complete trust.
So no matter what Ju Zi says, as long as it makes some sense, Xu Tianran will believe it unconditionally.
Of course, Ju Zi's loyalty to Xu Tianran is genuine.
Orange felt only loyalty and gratitude towards Xu Tianran, without any other additional feelings.
In Orange's view, Xu Tianran was simply a tool to achieve her revenge.
"By the way, with Orange taking such good care of me, is she also thinking of using me as a tool?"
At this thought, Bai Zhou suddenly realized something that was chilling to the bone...
However, even if that were the case, Bai Zhou wouldn't mind.
After all, with the goodwill factor, Orange might make a small profit, but he could definitely make a fortune that would make his scalp tingle.
Putting aside these distracting thoughts, Bai Zhou immediately activated the Wish System, intending to do a simple lottery draw.
After all, we've accumulated enough chances to participate in the lottery.
Even if the luck bestowed upon him by the Three-Eyed Golden Lion doesn't return to Peak, you'll eventually get something good if you keep trying.
Although Orange temporarily convinced Xu Tianran, it could only buy him a short time.
After all, a lie is still a lie. With Xu Tianran's intelligence, he might soon discover something amiss and be furious.
Therefore, Bai Zhou couldn't just sit idly by and wait for his fate; he had to prepare some things...
To become the mastermind behind everything, one naturally needs a method to control others.
Although the hypnotic Spirit Ability is effective, it cannot last.
As the Wish System slowly appeared, Bai Zhou closed his eyes and made a wish, silently reciting the Cultivation Technique he desired, and then immediately started a ten-pull:
[Ding~ Congratulations, host, you have gained mental force +300%]
[...Charm +100]
[… Comprehension Ability +500%]
[...]
[...acquired the arcane ability " Darkness Enslavement "]
[ Darkness Enslavement: Using powerful mental force to forcibly enslave targets...]
...
"A guaranteed reward after ten consecutive pulls, that seems pretty good!" Bai Zhou was overjoyed when he saw the last reward.
Darkness enslavement can be described as a Cultivation Technique, or more accurately, a secret art, an evil "secret art" based on powerful mental force.
Although this secret technique is very powerful, it requires a prerequisite: a strong mental force, one's own mental force must far exceed that of the target.
Of course, you can also injure the target to the point of near death and use this secret technique when the opponent has no ability to resist, which will greatly increase the success rate.
As for the number of slaves, there are only nine slots, which isn't very impressive, but it's still worth the guaranteed reward for a ten-pull.
Besides, this evil skill also has some drawbacks.
For example, although the enslaved person will be loyal to him, due to the secret technique, the person's lifespan will be reduced by 90%, and he will not be able to live for long.
Of course, this has no impact on Bai Zhou, the "master." He can simply replace him with another enslaved person when needed.
"I just wanted a method to control people, but I never expected to get such an evil cultivation technique..." Bai Zhou said with a wry smile as he began cultivating " Darkness Enslavement ".
Hypnosis, enslavement...
These are all 100% evil practices.
Bai Zhou realized that he seemed to be unknowingly going further and further down the path of becoming a villain.
Fortunately, he didn't consider himself a good person, so he didn't have any psychological burden and just wanted to have fun.
In just half an hour.
Bai Zhou quickly and easily cultivated the secret technique " Darkness Enslavement " to Major Achievement.
On one hand, it's due to his immense strength; on the other hand, it's because of his terrifying Comprehension Ability, which is comparable to having a cheat code, allowing him to achieve mastery almost instantly.
Although there are only 9 spots available for Darkness Enslavement, it's more than enough for Bai Zhou.
It can be said to be an essential technique for "behind-the-scenes manipulators".
Bai Zhou My mental force slightly dissipated, and after sensing the surroundings, I discovered that Orange was taking a shower upstairs...
Um...
Bai Zhou swore he absolutely didn't do it on purpose; he just wanted to see if Ju Zi was asleep...
Seeing that Ju Zi hadn't noticed him, Bai Zhou opened the window and, under the cover of night, secretly slipped out.
