“A flower looked somewhat embarrassed and glanced at Nie Wuming, saying, ‘Captain… um, about the Nie family… actually, weren’t they the head of the Four Great Aristocratic Families?’
Nie Wuming replied, ‘So what? In my eyes, the Shen family is the true leader of the Four Great Aristocratic Families!’
Upon hearing this, Ye Wanwan rolled her eyes at Nie Wuming. It seemed that in his eyes, whoever had the money was the leader.
If Nie Wuming had his way, the Shen family would not be the leader of the Four Great Aristocratic Families; they would be the leader of the Independent State.
Nie Wuming continued, ‘The Undaunted Alliance, the Asura, the Martial Arts Union Guild, those nonsense ancient clans, when they see the Shen family, they must kneel down and call them grandfathers.’
‘Captain…’ Shenxu Daoist looked at Nie Wuming, his lips twitching slightly, as if he wanted to say something.
But when Nie Wuming gave him a stern look, Shenxu Daoist shook his head with a smile and said, ‘It’s alright, with the captain’s abilities, the Nie family will surely rise to dominance in the Independent State!’
‘Our motto is!’ Nie Wuming clapped his hands.
‘Captain of Divine Annihilation, elegant and heroic!’
‘Handsome handsome handsome handsome! Strong strong strong strong!’
Foreign friends and A Flower shouted the slogan in unison.
Ye Wanwan thought, ‘Can we change this embarrassing slogan?’
‘Little sister, how can I make my parents abandon Nie Wuyou and give up their position for me? Of course, I’m not eyeing the position of the Nie family’s head. You know my abilities; I can easily establish a few branches of the Nie family. The main point is to prevent my brainless sister from becoming a perpetual sinner of the Nie family.’
Ye Wanwan turned to Nie Wuming, who looked serious and said, ‘As long as we set a trap, Nie Wuyou will fall right into it.’
She proceeded to explain the detailed plan to him.
About half an hour later, Nie Wuming, A Flower, and Shenxu Daoist left the Fearless Alliance, ready to execute Ye Wanwan’s plan.
Once they were gone, Ye Wanwan snapped her fingers and said, ‘Come out.’
Following her command, Feng Xuan ignited a cigarette and casually sat in a nearby conference chair.
‘Behave yourself,’ Ye Wanwan pointed to the “No Smoking” sign.
Feng Xuan sighed and put out the cigarette he had just lit.
‘Our plan succeeded. What’s your next step?’ Ye Wanwan asked, looking at Feng Xuan.
‘Wait for something to happen,’ Feng Xuan smiled faintly. ‘Aside from the captain, I’ve planted bugs in the phones of the others. If anyone contacts the fake Nie Wuyou, we’ll know.’
Ye Wanwan raised an eyebrow. ‘Are you sure… What if they talk in person? What if they use secret codes or nonverbal communication? Your plan isn’t foolproof.’
Feng Xuan continued to smile. ‘My bugs have recording capabilities, so your worries are unnecessary.’
In that moment, Ye Wanwan found herself speechless.”
