Chapter 23
Half a minute later, an unusual pulsating aura condensed around Li Mubai's body which dispersed in an instant.
Xia He, who was driving, didn't seem to notice it.
He now became an Innate Realm Master!
Li Mubai's eyes flashed, and an attribute panel appeared before him.
[Host]: Li Mubai
[Villain Luck]: 1800
[Charm]: 100+
[Combat Prowess]: Early stages of Innate Realm
[Skills]: Exploring Eyes
[Cheats]: Villain Halo (Suppressing the Protagonist's Halo)
[Role]: Junior Villain (Upgradeable)
[Items]: Substitute Talisman Seal (in use), Attacking Talisman Seal (at Master-Level), Attacking Talisman Seal (at Innate Level), Advanced Beauty formula.
[Villain Points]: 17000
As he felt the subtle Innate Qi in his body, Li Mubai felt incredibly comfortable.
This feeling of mastering power was simply amazing!
Neither his wealth nor status gave him the sense of security that his own power now brought him.
After all, he, Li Mubai was a Villain. Not just an ordinary villain but a villain who was destined to become a Heavenly Villain!
If he didn't have strong combat prowess to back him up, even if he had such a noble identity, he would be no different from a plaything.
Maybe he would be eventually ruined by the protagonist!
Because according to what his system told him, there would be more than just a protagonist like Ye Xuan in this world.
Return of the Soldier King, Cultivation Genius Descending down the Mountain, Superfluous War God...
Which of these protagonists weren't strong?!
These were novels with immortal cultivation, immortals, and so on...
Compared to cultivating immortality, him now mastering martial power wasn't noteworthy.
Ah!
He still had a long path ahead of him before he could become the Heavenly Destiny Villain...
"Welcome home, Young Master!"
As the car drove up to the entrance of the manor, the guards immediately welcomed him.
"En."
Li Mubai gave a nod.
Previously, when he drove by himself, he wouldn't be pulled up.
He drove out by himself in the morning. But later he had to go to the police station with Murong Bing in her police car. His car was still parked at the hotel as he didn't drive back.
So when Xia He, a housekeeper, drove her car, certainly they need to pull it up and examine it.
But as the guards saw Li Mubai sitting in the car, they skipped their check.
It was clear that Li Mubai garners a certain amount of respect with his identity of being the only Young Master of the Li family.

In the villa.
Leng Qianxue could still be seen hanging in the living room.
On the other hand, he didn't know where Xiao Qingcheng had run off to.
Li Mubai couldn't help but frown.
He, the Master had returned.
His little maid, however, did not come to greet him.
It seems like some punishment had to be given...
"Young Master!"
Seeing Li Mubai return, Dong Xue who had been in the living room hurriedly welcomed him.
"En."
Li Mubai gave a nod and looked at her and asked, "Where is Xiao Qingcheng?"
"Miss Xiao is in the study room on the second floor." Dong Xue answered.
"She's in the study room on the second floor?"
Li Mubai frowned and made his way towards the second floor.
In the study room on the second floor at this moment.
Xiao Qingcheng dressed in the same white cheongsam was sitting before the laptop which was on the desk working on it.
Before Li Mubai himself gave her permission, she didn't dare to free Leng Qianxue. So, she could only borrow a laptop from Dong Xue to deal with her company's affairs.
Her Qingcheng Group was now in a period of rapid growth and was in a lot of business.
She, as a President, had many matters that need her personal assistance!
Even though she had promised to be Li Mubai's personal maid for a week, Xiao Qingcheng didn't forget her task to make the Qingcheng Group develop into a hundred billion-dollar company.
Deep in her heart, she was still persistent.
She wanted to lead her Qingcheng Group to become a hundred billion-dollar company and then withdraw her marriage contract with Li Mubai!
If Li Mubai knew of what she had been planning, he'd want to scold her calling her an idiot, and tell her she, a toad wanted to eat swan meat!
Because, even if Li Mubai was allowed to marry Xiao Qingcheng, he wouldn't even consider it!
She was such a dumb woman who hadn't come to understand her present situation!
The door of the study room wasn't closed.
Li Mubai appeared behind Xiao Qingcheng without making any sound.
When he saw her so busy focussing on the laptop, busy going through her Qingcheng Group's Project plan without even taking a notice of his return, he couldn't help but smile coldly.
Snap.
Li Mubai closed the laptop.
Xiao Qingcheng felt angry and turned back to see who it was. When she saw it was Li Mubai, she couldn't help but say in a cold voice: "You're back."
"What should you call me?"
Li Mubai reminded her.
"Master..."
Xiao Qingcheng's voice was cold and whimsical. Her words carried a hint of tease with full of care.
Even a maid-like artificial smile crept onto her face again.
Hehe...
Li Mubai was amused.
Staring at Xiao Qingcheng's beautiful face that looked cold yet beautiful, he couldn't help himself from sneering at her.
It was no doubt that an Ice-cold Lady President indeed couldn't be the same as other weak little girls.
Last night, even if he had torn her pride and dignity and tossed her to the ground, in the blink of an eye, Xiao Qingcheng had put on a mask of disguise again.
It seems like he also had to tear her other disguise mask open...
As he thought to himself, Li Mubai lifted his hand, turned Xiao Qingcheng around making her back facing him, pressing her body on top of the closed laptop...
