273 Chapter 267: Business Alliance
"To tell the truth there are many things that I need to explain, and they are very complicated things" - I sat in front of the three women and made three cups of tea appear for them and a cup of coffee for me.
Kang Xia raised an eyebrow at the objects that appeared out of nowhere, but he decided to remain silent in order to understand the situation.
Lin Ruoxi showed no surprise and calmly drank the tea, she really enjoys this tea that I designed with the help of SystemGoddess.
Tang Wan raised an eyebrow at Lin Ruoxi's calmness as she normally doesn't accept food and drink from strangers because it can be dangerous. This can only mean that Lin Ruoxi knows me.
"Do you two know each other?" – Tang Wan looked at me with seriousness and concern as she is worried that I might choose to support Lin Ruoxi instead of her.
"First try the tea, you'll need to relax" - I smiled kindly.
This tea is made with spiritual herbs that contain Buddhist Dao which calms the mind and gives a pleasant feeling of inner peace.
In addition to the herbs, the tea contains my blood which was refined to create a medicine capable of resisting the negative effects generated by the presence of the Outer Gods and other types of mental attacks such as hypnosis or aphrodisiac skills.
The Outer Gods are like nuclear batteries, even if they mean no harm, their presence deteriorates the minds of those around them.
That effect can be suppressed thanks to my [Anti-Rasen] so the Outer Gods in my party aren't radioactive material, but it's still best to be wary of how volatile and unpredictable Madness is.
Not only does the tea help protect the mind and soul from corrosive energies, there are also several contracts in the tea so a single sip is enough to ensure that both Tang Wan and Kang Xia cannot reveal the secrets I am about to reveal.
By the way, I have given this tea to everyone I know to prevent anyone from taking control of my allies and subordinates, even my sister drinks this tea.
The three women drank the tea so I was able to reveal some secrets without fear of information leaks. That's the wonderful thing about having an entity capable of creating high-level contracts like BB.
"Well, for starters, let me introduce myself" – I changed my appearance. – "My name is Oosuki Luis, I am a member of the Ichijo family in Japan"
"…" – Tang Wan frowned and looked at Lin Ruoxi. - "Did you know?"
Lin Ruoxi calmly nodded. - "He's my husband"
"…" – Tang Wan clenched her teeth angrily, but decided to be patient so she took a deep breath and kept silent.
I like that she is an intelligent woman and knows how to control her feelings.
Kang Xia was just curious. – "The Ichijo family is one of the most important families in Japan and they are the ones who lead the yakuza… If you are here it means that you have some kind of secret mission and if you allow me to hear this it means that I am obliged to cooperate, right?"
"Not exactly" - I sighed. – "Things are a bit, well, complicated… To begin with, do you know about the supernatural world?"
Kang Xia raised an eyebrow. – "Do you mean wizards and demons like in the movies?"
I smiled wryly. – "That's right, only it's all true… Gods, magicians, demons, spirits, cultivators, and even heroes, this world has everything"
"Interesting…" – Kang Xia didn't seem to believe me completely, but she tried to accept all this to analyze all the information.
Again, I like smart women.
"This fool is a magical secret agent" – Lin Ruoxi smiled sarcastically, she is still mad at me.
"So you're a spy?" – Tang Wan frowned.
"No" - I sighed. – "I am not here to collect information or anything similar, I came to this country to take care of my wife while she fixes her problems in her company"
Lin Ruoxi lightly smiled.
"So..." - Tang Wan narrowed her eyes and clenched her fists. – "Why did you approach me?"
"In the first place, I didn't approach you, you were the one who looked for me" - I smiled wryly. – "Secondly, you are not only a beautiful woman, I like your personality and the way you prioritize the welfare of your daughter over your own life, I would sincerely like to establish a relationship with you"
Tang Wan fell silent, although there was a subtle blush on her cheeks.
"This fool goes after any beautiful woman he sees" – Lin Ruoxi snorted disdainfully.
"And that's how we got married." I shrugged.
"…" – My wife looked at me angrily.
"Wait" – Kang Xia cut into the conversation. - "How old are you?"
"17" – I shrugged and drank my coffee.
I love Colombian coffee…
"…" – Tang Wan blinked several times and then looked at Lin Ruoxi. – "I did not think you are an old cow who enjoys young grass"
"Who are you calling old cow?!" – Lin Ruoxi's face turned red with fury. – "This year I will be 24 while you are approaching 40! You are the old cow!"
"Uuuuhh that must have hurt~" – BB is having fun.
"What did you say?!" – Tang Wan seemed to want to fight.
I sighed. – "I have medication to achieve eternal youth so age is irrelevant"
Both women stopped fighting and looked at me strangely.
"Is there really such a thing?" – Tang Wan was excited since she is worried about her age, but in my opinion, she is a sexy milf.
Lin Ruoxi was not so anxious because of age, but the thought of retaining her beauty forever was somewhat tempting.
Lastly, Kang Xia seemed to be thinking about the business aspects of this class of medicine. Quite a businesswoman.
"Later let's talk about this, for now, there is something more important" - I sighed.
"Beauty is important…" – Tang Wan pouted like a child whose parents take away her toys.
I smiled wryly. – "The safety of humanity is more important"
All three women frowned.
"The full explanation is very long and tedious so I'll summarize it" - I sighed. – "I am something known as a Hero, an entity that exists to preserve the stability of a world…"
"Are there other worlds?!" – Kang Xia was excited.
"Please, questions at the end" - I smiled at her enthusiasm. – "Anyway, we Heroes have an instinct to detect when a World is in danger, and according to my instinct, something very dangerous is developing in this country"
This is not a lie, that instinct is one of the things that helps true Heroes detect world threats, and even though I don't have that instinct, [Paranoia] is more effective.
Lin Ruoxi frowned because this is the first time she has heard this.
"Actually" - I sighed and looked at my wife. – "I met your grandfather and he told me that something very strange is happening in this city and even the whole country seems to be in a difficult moment… You two don't know it, but Lin Ruoxi's grandfather has a position in the army so he has inside information"
Kang Xia held her chin. – "Recently there are riots and according to social networks people with superhuman abilities have appeared like in the movies, there are also rumors of a pandemic that started in the south and in less than a day has spread to several cities… Is this related to what you mention?"
"It's likely" - I sighed. – "Recently an extremely dangerous entity appeared that is famous for having caused the destruction of thousands of worlds, so it is possible that this entity is the cause of this chaos, although it is also likely that everything is part of the plan of some dark cult… The information is insufficient so I cannot specify what the problem is, but it is certainly something very dangerous"
Lin Ruoxi frowned. - "Why did not you tell me?"
"I only have superficial information and I don't want to obstruct your business" - I sighed heavily. – "I wanted to find a solution without you getting involved, but the situation is more dangerous than I thought, so I need you to make a decision"
Lin Ruoxi knows that I'm a manipulative idiot, but she doesn't know that I'm a complete hypocrite, so seeing my tired expression made her worry while it touched her heart since my expression shows that I've tried hard so that she can focus on the company she loves.
"Now the options are limited and I will offer my help" – I sighed. – "The most appropriate option is to take the companies to Japan since the danger seems to focus on China, and in case you want to continue here, I would like you three to cooperate to establish an economic pillar that supports this country since in situations of crisis the great families will be the first to sacrifice the citizens"
Tang Wan and Kang Xia were shocked by my words and didn't know what to say, only Lin Ruoxi raised an eyebrow. – "Since when do you care about innocent citizens?"
"It's true that I'm not a good person" - I shrugged. – "But it would be a tragedy to let beautiful women die"
"…" – My wife looked at me blankly. – "Lustful idiot"
"I am" - I nodded.
The reason why I revealed all this is simple, I got tired of acting like a stupid system user, simple as that.
If the fucking author wants to spread the stupidity where I'm a complete asshole, that's not my problem. Now Nyaruko will play the role of a brainless idiot.
Tang Wan and Kang Xia started asking me questions and I answered all of them, although I didn't tell the whole truth.
My proposal to take the business to Japan means that the women will be able to go to a safe place, but I will stay in China because I am a Hero and even if I don't want to get involved in trouble, I will be forced to save the world since that is the purpose why Heroes exist.
"I will stay in China" – Lin Ruoxi took a sip of her tea. – "I am your wife so I will stay, in the worst case we will simply die"
Even though I'm worried about how little importance she puts on her life, it's cute when she shows the more sensitive side of her.
Aotian nodded approvingly, she has the same mindset.
Tang Wan looked worried. She seems willing to stay in China, but there is something that is her highest priority.
I looked at the beautiful mature woman. – "I can talk to the Ichijo family so that your daughter is protected in Japan, I guarantee that she will be safe"
Tang Wan thought deeply.
"Don't worry about the Tang family, I'll take care of it" – I smiled slightly.
"Are you going to face one of the Four Great Families?!" – Tang Wan looked horrified and expectant.
"Well, that depends" - I smiled casually. – "Are you still willing to be my lover?"
Tang Wan smiled without regret. – "Finally you told me your real name and you revealed many shocking things to me, I am willing to be your woman"
BB is right, women in cultivation stories are easy to charm using plot armor.
This bores me a bit… Oh well, I have another sexy milf so I'm not complaining.
I looked at Kang Xia. – "I heard that you have a great talent for business and that is why I hope you can support these two women since they will start fighting at the slightest provocation, so a mediator will be necessary"
Tang Wan and Lin Ruoxi glared at me and spoke at the same time. – "Don't treat us like brats!"
"You see it?" - I smiled ironically.
Kang Xia also smiled wryly and then sighed. – "I imagine that I do not have the option of refusing after hearing this information…"
"Oh, of course, you can refuse" - I nodded. – "You can sign a magical contract to guarantee that you will keep this a secret and live your life as if this talk had not happened, but if you agree to cooperate with us, I will personally do you a favor."
"A favor?" – Kang Xia was curious, but at the same time, she was careful not to fall for a scam.
"I have some money in case you need it, I can get you some kind of magical artifact or something similar... Although the truth is, my specialty is eliminating problematic people" - I spoke clearly.
"A hit man…" - Kang Xia frowned.
"Heroes succeed by eliminating enemies" - I shrugged. – "The only difference is that I ask for a payment… You can say that I am a mercenary"
"And what? Am I supposed to be your lover for you to help me?" – Kang Xia smiled bitterly.
She hates jerks who use threats to get women so I need a softer approach.
"I don't see my women as accessories or toys, they are my family and I respect their decisions" – I spoke seriously to show that this is my mentality. – "If you only want professional and monetary cooperation, there is no problem, I will guarantee your safety while you help my wives"
Tang Wan blushed again since I technically called her my wife.
Kang Xia thought about it for a moment and nodded. – "If it is a formal job then I will cooperate to the best of my abilities"
"Excellent" – I smiled and stood up, then pointed at Aotian and Xiao Bai. – "I will be busy investigating the situation in this country so I hope you can stay together for a while, the two of them can protect you"
Tang Wan raised an eyebrow. – "Are you saying that we should live together?"
"It will be easier to protect you if you live together" - I sighed. – "Things can become a global disaster and I cannot take risks"
The three women looked at each other and then nodded, it's good that they know when to give in.
"I'm not going to intervene in business issues so you will have to organize the collaboration between both companies" - I smiled slightly. – "I will see you at night, for now, I have to continue investigating the situation in the city"
Tang Wan looked at Lin Ruoxi. – "Does he always leave after causing a problem?"
"You'll get used to it" – Lin Ruoxi sighed. – "Don't be surprised if this fool brings a new woman every time he goes out"
Tang Wan looked at me blankly. – "Do you know what self-control is?"
I shrugged. – "I am young and impulsive, it is the fault of the hormones"
"…" – Tang Wan sighed. – "I cannot believe that now I have a relationship with a boy younger than my daughter…"
"Hey Listen! That is the smell of oyakodon!" - Navi yelled in my mind.
Technically the idiot is right.
Anyway, now I must conquer some sects to solidify my future control of this country.
With [Reader's Perspective] I was able to find out the sects that were bribed by Koyanskaya so I'll take control of one of those sects, then have Luo De become the sect leader.
As for running a sect for only female cultivators, that's stupid.
Male cultivators are the best cannon fodder…

Author's Note:
Sometimes I plan development for the plot, but the ease with which I disperse makes me take the plot to turns that I myself did not expect...
It is difficult to write in such a way that it makes any sense.
Anyway, I just wanted to express my feelings as an author, a hug <3
