Long Piaoying suddenly lost contact, and Long Xiaotian had already sent many subordinates to search for her, but the news returned was all the sa: she couldn’t be found.
Ye Haochuan was terribly anxious and decided to go search for her himself.
The distance from the Imperial Capital to Guilin isn’t short, but Ye Haochuan only spent less than an hour flying there.
The landscape of Guilin is indeed renowned worldwide, and well-deserved. Its clear mountains and waters, strange caves, and beautiful stones make one linger and forget to return.
This was Ye Haochuan’s first ti visiting Guilin, and seeing these scenic views, he couldn’t help but marvel.
However, at this mont, he really didn’t have the mood to stroll around.
He swiftly traversed these peculiar mountains and winding waters, his Perspective Eyes scanning around, capturing everything in the mountains and waters in his sight.
But unfortunately, he searched every cavern in the mountains and every hidden path in the waters, yet still found no trace of Long Piaoying.
Could it be that sothing had really happened to Long Piaoying?
Ye Haochuan furrowed his brows deeply, his heart suspended in mid-air.
Still, he wouldn’t give up. If his eyes couldn’t find her, he decided to use his mouth to search.
He went to a place with a dense crowd, took out a photo of Long Piaoying, and asked so vendors.
But after asking around, no one had seen her.
Just when Ye Haochuan’s eyes showed despair, a man dressed in a suit suddenly ca over, glanced at Ye Haochuan’s phone, and said, "I’ve seen this girl, she seems to be called..."
"Long Piaoying!" Ye Haochuan showed surprise and asked eagerly, "Have you seen her?"
"Yes, it’s Long Piaoying! She ca here a few days ago. Such a beautiful woman, it’s the first ti in my life I’ve seen one, truly unforgettable!" the man said with a gleam of admiration.
Upon hearing this, Ye Haochuan was overjoyed and quickly asked, "Where is she now?"
"I seed to hear her asking about Dongyang Canyon, so she should have gone there!" the man replied.
"Dongyang Canyon?" Ye Haochuan said with a frown, "I’ve never heard of this place!"
The man laughed, "Dongyang Canyon is called a canyon, but it’s actually just a small ravine. As an outsider, it’s normal you haven’t heard of it. Even locals here might not know this place!"
Ye Haochuan dismissed it carelessly, saying, "Since you know this place, you probably know how to get there, right?"
"Of course I do. From here, head west over a hundred miles, then east, turn west, pass through a tunnel..."
The man said a series of left and right turns, making Ye Haochuan furrow his brows tightly.
Noticing this, the man smiled wryly, "That place is really remote. It’s not easy for to explain it simply!"
He then suddenly thought of sothing and smiled, "How about this: I’m off today anyway, so I’ll take you there. You can give so fare as if hiring a taxi, what do you think?"
"Oh? That’s great, then I’ll trouble you, Brother!" Ye Haochuan laughed and casually took out ten thousand yuan, handing it to the man.
"This..." The man’s eyes suddenly brightened, but quickly concealed his amazent, "This is too much, five hundred is enough!"
"No problem, this useless paper is no use to anyway!" Ye Haochuan remarked casually.
He wasn’t bluffing; RMB really didn’t an much to him now. Yet earlier, he had stored tens of billions in a ring, which was cumberso.
He thought that if this man could really help him find Long Piaoying, he might just give all those billions to him.
But his casual remark hit the man’s ears like magic, making him restless.
Oh my, saying RMB is just waste paper, how wealthy must one be?
Thinking this, a cunning and cold gleam suddenly flashed in the man’s eyes.
Ye Haochuan followed the man and got into a nearby Volkswagen. For so reason, the man drove very fast, quickly leaving the city and speeding down rural roads.
Ye Haochuan didn’t pay too much attention to this speed, because it was far slower than his flying speed. If he knew the way, he wouldn’t have needed to have the man drive him.
Squeak~
The sound of unpleasant braking echoed on the country road.
Ye Haochuan glanced around and found himself between a desolate mountain and wilderness.
"Is this Dongyang Canyon?" Ye Haochuan looked at the small hills on either side, not even twenty ters tall, and frowned.
The man indeed ntioned this was a small place, but could these small hills really be called a canyon?
"This place is indeed called Dongyang Canyon, but it’s a na I made up!" The man suddenly took out a pistol, pointed it at Ye Haochuan’s head, and grinned wickedly.
The man was quite handso, but with this nacing smile, he appeared sinister.
"Are you trying to kidnap ?" Ye Haochuan looked at the man expressionlessly.
"Kidnap you? No, no, no!" The man laughed, "Though kidnapping you would surely fetch more money, it’s too risky. I just want what’s on you."
While the man spoke, several cars suddenly erged from behind the small hills, rapidly stopping beside the Volkswagen. Out stepped a dozen people, all ard.
A short man with blonde hair but dark skin stepped out from the crowd, scrutinizing Ye Haochuan, and frowned at the man, "Old Three, is this the so-called big shot? Dressed in less than two hundred yuan, how does he look like a big shot?"
The man laughed taking out the ten thousand RMB Ye Haochuan had given earlier, "He casually handed out ten thousand yuan and called it waste paper. Could he be short on cash?"
"Boss, look, though this guy’s dressed plainly, the golden coffin around his neck is pure gold, and quite in quality. Also, his ring, this kind of black gemstone I’ve never seen before, it seems deep and mystical, certainly valuable!"
Upon hearing the explanation, the short man again scrutinized Ye Haochuan and found it to be exactly as the man described, his eyes lighting up.
"Chop this guy’s hand off and take the ring," the short man sneered coldly.
To take the ring doesn’t an you have to chop the hand. But when he said this, no one questioned him; instead, everyone’s eyes glead fiercely.
"Boss, how should we take off that necklace?" The man asked with a smirk.
"Of course, chop off the head to take it, do I have to remind you?" the short man said begrudgingly.
"Alright!" A vulgar-looking guy grabbed an axe and approached Ye Haochuan.
"Kid, you have guts, huh? At this point, you’re not even trembling!" The vulgar guy sneered at Ye Haochuan’s expression, "But I hate kids like you pretending to be calm. If my axe goes down and you can still remain calm, I’ll be impressed!"
With that, he raised the axe towards Ye Haochuan’s right hand.
