Chapter 258: Chapter 258 Empress Madam (1st Update)

“Your Excellency, Empress, you’ve gone to such great lengths to deal with this Xue An, what exactly is the reason?”

Along with the voice, a man dressed in a proper suit, his hair meticulously combed, slowly emerged from the darkness.

The man’s face seemed to always carry a fitting smile, and his voice was so gentle and refined, just like a gentleman’s.

But if anyone else had been present, they would have certainly cried out in alarm.

For this man was none other than Griffin, known as the Bone Picker!

One of the dark triumvirate of the City of Sin.

The reason he was called the Bone Picker was that he had a profound love for human bones and regarded them as the most splendid trophies in the world.

His most brilliant feat was to completely strip a person of their bones while ensuring that the person remained alive until the very end.

This was a name that could cause countless people to have nightmares.

A demonic red glint flashed in Fan Mengxue’s eyes as she spoke indifferently, “Do I need to explain my actions to you?”

“Of course not, but Your Excellency, Empress, I hope that after I help you kill Xue An, you will keep your promise to help me return to the City of Sin and take the Fountain of Youth!”

“The Fountain of Youth…” A strange glimmer appeared on Fan Mengxue’s face.

“Does this thing of legend truly exist?”

Griffin smiled, “Of course it exists, and it will appear in the City of Sin sooner rather than later!”

As he said this, a look of resentment flashed in his eyes.

“Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been driven out of the City of Sin by old Beir and that bitch of a poisonous scorpion!”

Fan Mengxue nodded, “Understood! I will keep my promise. I hope you will too, as you said. Now leave!”

Griffin did not move from his spot.

Fan Mengxue frowned slightly, then extended her leg from beneath her cheongsam with some disgust.

Seeing this long and straight leg, Griffin was excitedly prostrated on the ground, yet as if he dared not defile it, he only dared kiss the high heels of Fan Mengxue and the floor she had walked upon.

He said, enthralled, “Your Excellency, Empress, you possess a pair of legs that are unmatched in this world; I am willing to be your devoted minion!”

“Get lost!” Fan Mengxue said coldly.

After Griffin left.

Han Yao walked in, the once high-spirited top agent, now completely submissive, with a light in her eyes that lacked human emotion.

“My lord, why do you accommodate that Griffin?”

Fan Mengxue looked out the window.

This was Hollywood in M Country, the most prosperous film capital. Even though it was late at night, the lights outside were still shining brightly.

“I’ve changed my mind; this body is simply too perfect, even more so than the bodies I’ve possessed before. I’ve decided to use it for cultivation! But this person’s soul is very strong; I’ve been unable to destroy it!”

“Due to the limitations of the rules, my true body can’t leave Kunlun, so I have to resort to using secular forces to deal with Xue An!”

“And as for the Fountain of Youth mentioned by Griffin, if obtained, it will greatly benefit the cultivation of my true body!”

As she spoke, Fan Mengxue’s eyes shimmered with greed.

Han Yao respectfully lowered her head.

Xue An, you killed my disciples in Night Demon Valley, you destroyed Moonwatching Pavilion, but did you expect… that was nothing more than a peripheral branch of the secular world!

The true strong are all within Kunlun.

If it weren’t for the constraints of the laws, my true body could have come down and crushed you to dust in an instant.

But this is also good… it allowed me to possess such a perfect body.

Heh heh!

When the time comes, I will kill you myself!

To be killed by someone who likes you, just thinking about it excites me!

Fan Mengxue looked out at the bustling scene outside the window, a smug curve appearing on her lips.

At this moment.

Xue An and An Yan were just settling into the plane heading to M Country.

An Yan was very excited.

This was her first time going to M Country.

As for Xue An, he was non-committal about the trip.

When An Yan first mentioned Fan Mengxue’s invitation to him, Xue An felt that something was off.

Why hadn’t he heard anything about it before?

But as long as his wife was happy, it didn’t matter where they went.

Moreover, Xue An did indeed want to congratulate his former deskmate.

Xue An was seated in first class, which was very elegant.

Their two young daughters were wearing headphones, each engrossed in a tablet.

People continued to board the plane.

Suddenly, a surprised voice came through.

“Sir?”

Xue An turned his head to see the girl he had encountered yesterday in Xiangshan looking at him with a face full of surprise.

“Is it really you! Are you traveling with your family?” Shen Nan said excitedly.

Xue An smiled and nodded.

“You left in such a hurry yesterday, I didn’t get a chance to introduce myself, my name is Shen Nan!” Shen Nan said as she extended her hand generously, her heart pounding.

Xue An’s flight into the sky the day before had shocked the girl immensely.

She had thought they would never meet again, but unexpectedly, they encountered each other on the plane, which naturally excited her greatly.

Xue An paused briefly, then glanced at An Yan beside him.

An Yan, of course, would not be jealous over this, as she saw the young girl as just a child.

“My name is An Yan, and this is my husband… Xue An!” An Yan introduced with a smile.

Shen Nan nodded, and her seat happened to be right beside An Yan.

After sitting down, the two women began to chat.

It was only from their conversation that Xue An understood.

Shen Nan turned out to be a low-profile rich second-generation.

Her father was a Chinese producer in Hollywood, M Country, and this time she was rushing back home because of some family matters.

At that point, Xue An felt some sympathy for the guy who had proposed the day before.

He thought he could show off and deceive with a diamond ring, unaware of the superior family background of the girl.

At least taking a casual trip home, she had to travel first class, and being able to stand her ground in Hollywood as a Chinese was not something an ordinary family could manage.

When Shen Nan heard that Xue An and his family were also going to Hollywood, she became even more delighted and insisted they visit her home.

An Yan had a good impression of the young girl, so in the end, she even nodded in agreement.

“Sister An, what are you going to Hollywood for?” Shen Nan asked curiously.

An Yan smiled and glanced at Xue An beside her, “We have a friend who is going to the Oscars in a few days, and we’re just going along for the fun!”

Shen Nan suddenly understood.

In recent years, the Oscars had been gaining more and more influence.

Many people from the country would go and watch when the time came.

As for the friend that An Yan mentioned who could attend the Oscars, it might be some female internet celebrity who had paid to walk the red carpet!

Shen Nan thought to herself and didn’t take it seriously.

When the plane slowly landed at the M Country airport, and the group walked out of the terminal,

an overly enthusiastic man speaking English with an exaggerated accent came forward,

“NanNan! You’re here?”
