Long Tianhao arrived at the abandoned developnt, imdiately gathering the Second Realm War Gods, First Realm War Gods, and so Great Grandmasters from his faction. Ye Xiu simply had too many subordinates in Guoyang, and his own faction didn’t have enough First and Second Realm War Gods, so he had to make do with so Great Grandmasters.
After personally explaining their tasks to each of them, he went straight to the villas at Junlin Mountain.
Standing at the entrance of Villa No. 6, Long Tianhao thought of his imminent capture of Qin Qing and the control he would have over Ye Xiu. His heart surged with emotion, and his blood boiled with excitent.
"The door isn’t even locked. Qin Qing, your situational awareness is seriously lacking, hahaha."
Seeing the villa door ajar, Long Tianhao’s eyebrows shot up in delight. He laughed loudly as he pushed the door open and walked inside.
Qin Qing was sitting on the sofa watching TV. Seeing Long Tianhao enter, she stretched lazily and said, "Bro, you finally made it. Chloe and I were about to wilt away from waiting."
Long Tianhao froze. Judging by Qin Qing’s tone, it seed she knew he was coming.
Just as he was about to ask, he saw Chloe, who had been sitting next to Qin Qing, suddenly vanish. The next mont, his vision blurred, and the foreign woman, Chloe, appeared before him like a specter.
When his gaze t Chloe’s beautiful eyes, whose pupils had turned a deep purple, his consciousness shattered. His entire body went rigid.
So I really do only last three seconds... That was the last thought in Long Tianhao’s mind before he lost consciousness.
"Too weak."
Chloe, looking thoroughly bored, fished a cell phone out of Long Tianhao’s pocket and tossed it to Qin Qing.

"Can you hurry it up, Ye Liangchen?"
The Clan Leader’s patience had run out. He had been watching Ye Xiu perform acupuncture on him for over three hours, and he still wasn’t finished. In that ti, Ye Xiu had treated him like a guinea pig, performing the treatnt while simultaneously teaching Tang Bo the Traveling Dragon Moxibustion Technique. It was a complete humiliation!
"Alright, that’s all for today. We’ll continue tomorrow!" Ye Xiu said as he plucked all the Silver Needles from the Clan Leader’s body.
"Tomorrow won’t work. Huang Quan already gave a two-day beating in one go, so I won’t be injured tomorrow," the Clan Leader said with a smile as he stretched his limbs and hopped off the bed, completely unhard. He had the carefree air of soone with the weekend off.
Ye Xiu chuckled inwardly. Bro, when you get beaten up isn’t your call to make; it’s mine. You think I can’t just move the day-after-tomorrow’s beating to tomorrow?
He simply nodded and said, "Alright then!"
With that, he and Tang Bo left the room.
The Clan Leader quickly pulled out his phone and called Long Tianhao, asking urgently, "Sixth Brother, how did it go? Did you get Qin Qing?"
"Guess who this is," a playful voice ca through the phone. It was Qin Qing.
THUD.
A jolt went through the Clan Leader’s head, as if it had been slamd in a door. His face turned ugly as he asked, "Are you Qin Qing?"
"Congratulations, you guessed right! As a reward, I have so good news for you," Qin Qing’s teasing voice replied. "Long Tianhao and all the n he sent have been captured alive by . The Long Family will have a lot fewer mouths to feed from now on."
"Bastard!" the Clan Leader roared, but Qin Qing had already hung up and didn’t hear him.
The Clan Leader’s face turned green with fury. His original plan was to capture Qin Qing and gain control over Ye Xiu. Instead, Long Tianhao and all the elites of the Long Family’s sixth faction had been captured by Qin Qing.
This was a devastating loss. A truly miserable defeat.
The Long Family’s six major factions had instantly beco five, reducing its strength by one-sixth.
Could Ye Xiu have known all along that I’d discovered his identity? Impossible. Sixth Brother went to capture Qin Qing and Ye Xiu’s subordinates right after texting that mysterious person. Ye Xiu couldn’t possibly have found out that quickly and prepared for it. Besides, if Ye Xiu knew I saw through his disguise and that Sixth Brother was after Qin Qing and his people, he would never have treated my injuries. There’s only one possibility: the person who texted Sixth Brother played us both. They knew Qin Qing and Ye Xiu’s subordinates were cautious and strong, so they deliberately guided to send Sixth Brother after them. This was a ploy to use Ye Xiu to weaken the Long Family. The person who sent that text must be from dicine King Valley.
The Clan Leader’s imagination ran wild. After a long analysis, his reasoning had gone completely off track, leaving dicine King Valley to take the bla for no reason.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Co in!" the Clan Leader said, trying to suppress his irritation.
Nangong Yue pushed the door open and reported, "Clan Leader, while my people were out searching for Ye Liangchen today, they discovered many mbers of dicine King Valley’s reformist faction. They’ve set up stalls at the entrances of major hospitals and in crowded areas throughout Guoyang, offering free dical treatnt."
Hearing this, the Clan Leader was instantly certain of his conclusion. The person who texted Sixth Brother was definitely from dicine King Valley.
Anger flared in his heart, and rage burned in his chest.
"Relay my order!" he commanded. "Summon all War Gods and masters of a higher realm from the Long Family and the thirteen external families to the Long Family Manor. We must guard against a night raid from dicine King Valley."
"Understood!" Nangong Yue replied with a solemn expression, turning to carry out the order.
"Wait," the Clan Leader stopped her. "Go tell Ye Liangchen not to go anywhere tonight."
He was worried that with Sixth Brother’s capture, Ye Xiu might guess that his identity had been exposed. Giving such an order through Nangong Yue was a way to test him. If Ye Xiu insisted on leaving the Long Family Manor tonight, it ant he realized he was exposed and was trying to flee. In that case, the Clan Leader would have no choice but to act against him.
"Ye Liangchen is back?" Nangong Yue’s eyes instantly lit up.
The Clan Leader narrowed his eyes. With a century of experience, he could easily tell that Nangong Yue had developed genuine feelings for Ye Xiu. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so visibly thrilled to hear of his return.
He nodded. "Yes."
"I’ll go find him!" Nangong Yue exclaid, then scurried out of the room gleefully.
The Clan Leader slapped his forehead. He had instructed Nangong Yue, Gu ng, Bai Xi, and Wen Rubing to pursue Ye Liangchen to bind him securely to the Long Family. But Ye Liangchen was Ye Xiu, and now Nangong Yue had fallen in love with him.
Damn it all... I tried to steal a chicken, but ended up losing the bait. It’s a devastating double loss.

Ye Xiu didn’t leave the Long Family Manor. He returned to his villa and checked a text ssage from Du Long. He had been busy treating the Clan Leader and teaching Tang Bo the Traveling Dragon Moxibustion Technique earlier, so he hadn’t had a chance to read it.
This is bizarre. I shattered Dog Two’s heart ridian years ago, but he didn’t die. Now Jiao Fuping, whom I killed, is also not dead. And to top it off, Jiao Fuping and Dog Two have tead up? What in the world is going on?
Ye Xiu’s mind was a complete ss.
"Brother, um, hehe..."
Tang Bo walked in at that mont, rubbing his hands together and snickering. "Uh, I’m out of money again."
Ye Xiu was speechless. "You need to get a girlfriend. You can’t keep spending money like this."
He took out his wallet, counted out 2,000 yuan, and handed it to Tang Bo.
"You’re absolutely right, Brother! I’ll go find a girlfriend right after I spend this 2,000," Tang Bo said, grabbing the money and running off.
Just then, Ye Xiu’s phone rang. It was Du Long.
"Holy shit, this is so spooky business! Jiao Fuping ca back from the dead!"
