"The Dragon Lord clearly doesn’t see us as human beings," Nangong Yue said, unable to hold back her anger any longer after they got into the comrcial van.
Gu ng, Bai Xi, Yue Xiaofeng, Xue Zhiyuan, Deng Xifeng, and Li Muyang were also fuming.
"That food was bought by Brother Ye for us. Why should the Long Family get to eat first?" Gu ng said indignantly.
"Heh, there are so many people in the Long Family. That food isn’t nearly enough for them, so there’s no way there will be any leftovers."
"Even if there were leftovers, how could our families stomach food the Long Family picked over?"
"Sigh, Brother Ye, an outsider, treats us so well, yet the Clan Leader, as the head of the Long Family and the thirteen patronymic families, treats us like livestock."
Listening to the seven of them complain, Ye Xiu, who was driving, was secretly delighted. The deeper the resentnt the thirteen patronymic families held toward the Dragon Lord, the easier it would be for him to subvert and recruit them.
He said, "I’ll call the restaurant and have them prepare another al for your families and deliver it. As for your relatives in the unfinished residential district, I’ll contact multiple restaurants tomorrow to have food delivered to them."
Upon hearing this, Nangong Yue’s group was deeply touched, endlessly praising Brother Ye for his kindness and for treating them so well.
Nangong Yue’s eyes sparkled with adoration. My man is so kind-hearted.
Taking advantage of their distraction, Ye Xiu sent a text to Mo Luo: "Take Qin Qing to Du Long’s place."
Mo Luo replied, "Understood!"
「In a farmhouse courtyard.」
Ergouzi was having dinner at a stone table in the yard. It consisted of a bowl of white rice, a plate of stir-fried greens, and a glass of cooled boiled water.
This was his dinner.
"By now, Jiao Fuping should have already told Long Tianba that Ye Liangchen is Ye Xiu."
As Ergouzi ate, he smiled and asked, "Wu Yiping, what do you think that old bastard Long Tianba will do about Ye Xiu?"
Wu Yiping, standing respectfully to the side, said, "He might try to kill Ye Xiu directly, but he’s no match for him and would likely be killed by Ye Xiu in return."
"No, no, no, you don’t understand Long Tianba," Ergouzi said with a smile. "Long Tianba is getting beaten up by Huang Quan every day. He needs Ye Xiu to heal him, so even if he finds out that Ye Liangchen is Ye Xiu, he won’t turn on him for the ti being."
"Master is wise!"
Wu Yiping casually offered so praise. "Then wasn’t it pointless for Master to have Jiao Fuping leak Ye Xiu’s identity?"
"Of course, it was useful. At the very least, Long Tianba will be wary of Ye Xiu, and Ye Xiu’s plan to tornt the Long Family will be hindered."
Ergouzi’s smile faded. He narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "What Ye Xiu endured ten years ago was horrific. He wants the Long Family and all his enemies to experience what he went through, so he won’t kill them outright. But I won’t let him have his way."
Wu Yiping didn’t understand. "What does Master intend to do?"
Ergouzi gritted his teeth and said, "Jiang Yuan has already taken people to Guoyang and started offering free dical treatnt. Arrange for soone to kill a few of Jiang Yuan’s dicine Slaves."
"Also, the unfinished residential district houses the families of all the First and Second Realm War Gods from both the Long Family and the thirteen patronymic families. Send people to carry out a massacre. The more they kill, the better."
Wu Yiping was confused. "What is the purpose of this, Master?"
"Jiang Yuan will think the Long Family killed his dicine Slaves, and he will vent all his anger on the Long Family’s mountain. If I’m correct, Jiang Yuan will launch a night raid on the Long Family Manor tonight," Ergouzi said viciously.
Wu Yiping finally understood Ergouzi’s intention. Ergouzi wanted to use Jiang Yuan to slaughter the Long Family mbers. This way, when Ye Xiu found out, he would surely explode with anger. With the Long Family dead, his plan to tornt them would be ruined.
"I will make the arrangents right now," he said.
"Mm," Ergouzi nodded and continued to eat.
Ye Xiu arrived at the Crowne Plaza Hotel with Nangong Yue and the six others.
After parking in the lot, Ye Xiu said, "It’s not yet ti for you to et the people from the Fire Seed Company. All of you wait for in the car."
Nangong Yue and the others readily agreed.
Ye Xiu went to the presidential suite, where Qin Qing, Chloe, and Mo Luo were already waiting for him. Du Long and Jiao Fuping were also in the room.
Seeing Ye Xiu arrive, Qin Qing imdiately got into character, pretending they were still in a cold war, even as she wondered, But why did he have Mo Luo bring here?
Ye Xiu sat on the sofa and eyed Jiao Fuping. "Jiao Fuping," he said teasingly, "I never thought I’d see you again in this lifeti."
Jiao Fuping shrugged. "So what if you see again? Go ahead, kill one more ti." His Totem Power had awakened, so he wasn’t afraid of Ye Xiu in the slightest. Even if Ye Xiu killed him, he would just co back to life.
Ye Xiu chuckled. "Quite confident, aren’t you? Do you really think I can’t kill you just because your Totem Power has awakened?"
The term "Totem Power" was completely foreign to Qin Qing, Mo Luo, Chloe, and Du Long, and they were all taken aback.
"Young Master, what is Totem Power?" Chloe inquired.
"Like your Purple Pupils, it’s an inherited trait that grants special abilities upon awakening," Ye Xiu explained succinctly.
"What special ability does Jiao Fuping have?" Chloe asked.
"Rapid self-healing. He can even co back from the dead," Ye Xiu said.
Qin Qing, Chloe, Mo Luo, and Du Long were shocked. To think such an incredible power existed in the world. For a mont, they all envied Jiao Fuping. Out of the billions of people on the planet, who wouldn’t want an ability like that?
"Hmph. You seem to know quite a bit about my Totem Power," Jiao Fuping stated arrogantly. "In that case, you should also know you can’t kill ."
Ye Xiu replied, "It’s not that I know so much about your Totem Power; it’s that you know so little about it yourself."
"What do you an by that?" Jiao Fuping asked.
"I an, I have ways to kill you," Ye Xiu said with a smile. "For example, I could chop off your head. I could cut you into pieces. I could burn you to ashes... I have plenty of ways to end your life for good."
Hearing this, the confident expression on Jiao Fuping’s face turned to terror. He truly didn’t understand the full extent of the dicine King Valley’s Totem Power, but he could easily imagine that if Ye Xiu cut off his head and kept it far from his body, his Totem Power, no matter how bizarre or powerful, could not resurrect a headless person. As for being cut to pieces or burned to ashes, Jiao Fuping had even less confidence that his Totem Power could bring him back.
"Of course, I have an even better way to kill you," Ye Xiu said, the corners of his mouth lifting in a cold smile.
"What way?" Jiao Fuping asked instinctively.
"By stripping the Totem Power from your body."
As Ye Xiu finished speaking, he suddenly struck out with his palm. A golden aura erupted from his hand, enveloping Jiao Fuping.
The next mont, Jiao Fuping felt as if every cell in his body was being electrocuted. The pain was so intense that he collapsed to the ground, rolling and screaming like a pig being slaughtered.
