"You..."
Jiang Linglong was burning with rage, but she understood Tang Bo’s temperant and couldn’t be bothered to argue with this blockhead. She asked, "I heard Ye Liangchen is here. Where is he? Tell him to co out and see ."
Tang Bo was stunned. "You’re here for Ye Liangchen? What do you want with him?"
"Call him out, and you’ll find out!" Jiang Linglong said.
"He is Ye Liangchen." Tang Bo pointed at Ye Xiu and said, "Now you can tell what you want with him."
Only then did Jiang Linglong turn to look at Ye Xiu, sizing him up. "You’re Ye Liangchen?"
"I am," Ye Xiu nodded.
"Co with ," Jiang Linglong said emotionlessly. She intended to take Ye Xiu elsewhere and torture him for information.
"Where to?" Ye Xiu asked.
"Cut the crap. Just co with ," Jiang Linglong scolded, displaying a completely high-handed attitude toward Ye Xiu, treating him as if he were an insignificant ant. In her eyes, Ye Liangchen was just a re doctor. If it weren’t for a specific reason, she wouldn’t even bother with such a minor character.
"Pretty arrogant, huh!" Ye Xiu sneered, then turned to Tang Bo. "She wants to take away. Do you think I should go with her?"
"Ignore her," Tang Bo declared proudly.
Ye Xiu laughed and said to Jiang Linglong, "You heard him. If you want to take away, you’ll have to get his approval first."
This was a very crude and simple attempt to sow discord, and anyone with a bit of experience in the martial world would have seen through it. Unfortunately, both Tang Bo and Jiang Linglong had lived in the deep mountains for so long that they lacked such experience and completely missed the implication.
"Tang Bo, Ye Liangchen is the person my great-grandfather wants. Do you really intend to stop from taking him?" Jiang Linglong asked, staring at him coldly.
"Hmph, Jiang Yuan is nothing. Ye Liangchen is the person my master has his eye on. Forget you, even if Jiang Yuan himself ca, he couldn’t dream of taking him away," Tang Bo said with disdain.
Jiang Linglong’s expression turned ugly. Back in Han Jin City, when Song Yushu told her Ye Liangchen was at the Long Family Manor, she had suspected Ye Liangchen was part of the Long Family and that Jiao Fuping and the Fire-Water Judges had also been killed by them. Now, seeing Tang Bo’s attitude and hearing from him that Ye Liangchen was soone the Long Master himself had taken an interest in, she was certain that the Long Family had killed Jiao Fuping and the Fire-Water Judges.
"The Long Family will pay the price for this," Jiang Linglong snorted coldly and stord off. She needed to get this ssage back to dicine King Valley imdiately. The killer wasn’t Huang Quan, so everyone could relax.
Watching Jiang Linglong’s retreating figure, Ye Xiu was greatly disappointed. He had thought she would fight Tang Bo, but it turned out the girl wasn’t so impulsive. Still, this act had thoroughly provoked a feud between the Long Family and dicine King Valley. Let them fight like dogs.
"How did you offend dicine King Valley?" Tang Bo asked.
"What dicine King Valley?" Ye Xiu feigned ignorance.
Tang Bo narrowed his eyes, a flash of insight striking him. Could it be that dicine King Valley learned of Ye Liangchen’s exquisite dical Skills and wanted to recruit him? No, I have to inform the Long Master right away. If dicine King Valley sends a large force of experts to snatch Ye Liangchen, I won’t be able to hold them off alone. "I have to go out for a bit!" he said before leaving in a hurry.
「On the other side」
After leaving the Long Family Manor, Jiang Linglong got into a taxi parked on the roadside. In the car, besides the driver, were two middle-aged n—the assistants she had brought with her.
One of them asked, "Where is Ye Liangchen? Is he not at the Long Family Manor?"
"He’s there, but..." Jiang Linglong recounted the entire incident and her conclusions in detail, then said, "Li Chuan, Gao Xuan, I’m going back right now to give this news to my great-grandfather. You two stay behind and look for a chance to kill Ye Liangchen."
"Understood!" Li Chuan and Gao Xuan nodded. Jiang Linglong then instructed the driver to leave imdiately.
After the taxi was a good distance away, Li Chuan and Gao Xuan’s eyes lit up when they suddenly saw Tang Bo leaving the Long Family Manor. With Tang Bo gone, their combined strength as War Gods ant they could crush Ye Liangchen however they pleased.
Once Tang Bo was a safe distance away, the two of them ran into the Long Family Manor. Jiang Linglong’s description had been very detailed, so they knew which villa Ye Xiu was staying in. However, when they arrived at the villa, they found Ye Xiu holding a stick and smiling at them, as if he had known they were coming all along.
"Are you Ye Liangchen?" Gao Xuan asked.
"Yes," Ye Xiu nodded.
"Did you know we would co?" Gao Xuan asked.
"The area around the Long Family Manor is filled with my people. Every move you make is under my surveillance," Ye Xiu said with a cold laugh. "Oh, and a friendly reminder: the driver of the taxi you took is also one of my n."
"What?" The faces of Gao Xuan and Li Chuan changed dramatically.
Gao Xuan questioned him, "We got that taxi in Han Jin City. How could you know we would go to Han Jin City, and how could you be sure we would choose the one you arranged?"
"It’s simple. I killed Jiao Fuping and the Fire-Water Judges, and I had my n drop their bodies into dicine King Valley. Unsure if I or Huang Quan was the killer, dicine King Valley was bound to send people to find for confirmation. You only knew of my connection to the Song Family, so you would inevitably go there to ask about my whereabouts. All I needed to do was arrange for a single taxi at the entrance to the Song Family’s neighborhood," Ye Xiu patiently explained.
"This..."
A chill ran down Gao Xuan and Li Chuan’s spines. They had no doubt about Ye Xiu’s words. After all, the incident of a helicopter dropping the bodies of Jiao Fuping and the Fire-Water Judges into dicine King Valley was known only to the killer and the people of dicine King Valley. Ye Xiu’s ability to state it so clearly proved that he was indeed responsible.
"Jiao Fuping said you were the disciple of the Evil Doctor Nangong Lie. Although you completely overpowered him at the Xu Family’s estate, your strength was supposedly that of a War God. Now it seems you’ve fooled everyone. Your strength is not rely at the War God level; you possess the power to easily kill experts far above it," Gao Xuan said gravely.
"Correct," Ye Xiu nodded.
Seeing Ye Xiu admit it, Gao Xuan and Li Chuan exchanged a glance before suddenly bolting in opposite directions. If Ye Liangchen could easily slaughter the Fire-Water Judges, then they, who were rely War Gods and couldn’t even defeat Jiao Fuping, stood no chance against him. Running was their only chance of survival!
"After talking to you for so long, I never planned to let you leave in one piece."
Ye Xiu raised his hand, and two streaks of Dao Mang shot out. Gao Xuan and Li Chuan, having run only a few ters, collapsed to the ground, crying out as they rolled around in agony. The Blade Qi entered their bodies, wreaking havoc on their ridians. In an instant, their Martial Prowess was crippled, and their Eight Extraordinary ridians were left in utter disarray.
"Blade Qi... you used Blade Qi! You... you’re not the disciple of the Evil Doctor Nangong Lie. Who in the world are you?" Gao Xuan asked through gritted teeth, enduring the excruciating pain.
