Ye Xin patted the earth, vividly rembering the scene from back then.
The snow was exceptionally heavy that ti, and the Tibetan Mastiff they kept at ho plunged headfirst into the river, completely disappearing from sight, which startled Ye Xin quite a bit.
In the end, the Mastiff leapt out from the snowdrift, and Ye Xin then realized that the snow had accumulated so thickly...
Master Ye continued, "Back then, it was the Sect Master of the Shangqing Sect who approached . He was very direct upon his arrival, getting straight to the point by saying he could cure my illness. Not only could he cure , but he could also grant longevity, making it no problem to live past a hundred years!"
"You know this, too." Master Ye glanced at Yang Chen, "A dying person can exhibit an even stronger desire for survival. So... I agreed. I said I would agree to any terms! Then he told he only wanted Ye Xin. He said to first let Ye Xin go to the mountains with him to learn so skills for a period, and then she could return, until she had to go back after coming of age. However, after returning, she would beco a mber of the Sect for life. But the Sect Master of Shangqing Sect also promised , guaranteeing the prosperity and flourishing of our Ye family..."
"I... agreed. I exchanged Ye Xin’s freedom for my lifespan. As he said, Ye Xin was taken away for a period and then sent back, performing extraordinarily in all sorts of matters, until she went to work in the intelligence departnt after coming of age, eventually becoming the legendary Fire Phoenix... In the blink of an eye, eighteen years have passed. I originally thought everything was fine, or that their Sect had retreated and wouldn’t resurface for fifty years. But I was wrong, I didn’t expect they would want to take Ye Xin away now... I... I really regret it!"
"Grandpa!" Ye Xin held Master Ye’s hand and said, "You don’t need to bla yourself; I willingly did all of this, it has nothing to do with you!"
Back then, upon hearing that those people could save her grandfather, Ye Xin agreed without a second thought.
After listening, Yang Chen frowned deeply.
From Master Ye’s words, Yang Chen gathered so information.
That is, the Sect Master of the Shangqing Sect is incredibly powerful!
He single-handedly infiltrated the Beihai Country, entered the heavily fortified palace of Beihai Country, and ca and went as if it were unguarded, slaughtering the Beihai Country royalty and leaving unscathed.
Most importantly, the royalty of Beihai Country dared only to be angry but not speak out!
Regarding this, Yang Chen could only think of two words: suppression!
Beihai Country is completely suppressed by the Sect Master of the Shangqing Sect alone!
Such strength is truly awe-inspiring.
Additionally, Yang Chen thought that the Shangqing Sect’s attention to the Ye family hadn’t just started recently; they probably noticed Ye Xin a long ti ago, focusing their sights on her.
After Master Ye fell ill, on the brink of death, they decided to act and took Ye Xin away.
But what was their purpose for taking Ye Xin?
Yang Chen looked at Ye Xin and asked, "Xinxin, do you know why they chose you?"
Ye Xin shook her head and softly said, "All I know is, the Sect Leader said I have great potential."
"Great potential?" Yang Chen shook his head, still unable to comprehend.
Seeing Yang Chen frowning in thought, Ye Xin sighed and said to Yang Chen, "Dear, you should stop worrying about this. No matter what, they won’t harm or Grandpa, but you’re different. You crippled Shang Tu, which equals slapping their Sect in the face. Now they want to hold you accountable, and there’s no way you’ll escape. For the fight tomorrow night, you must think of how you’ll handle it!"
Yang Chen nodded, "I understand!"
"What do you need? Tell , and I’ll do everything I can to prepare!" Ye Xin said firmly.
Since she couldn’t change Yang Chen’s decision, she could only help him as much as possible.
Yang Chen thought for a mont and said, "I need detailed maps of the Fla Palace, and clear the area for us to fight!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xin frowned, "Just that?"
Yang Chen nodded, "Just that!"
Ye Xin gave Yang Chen a deep look and sighed, "Alright then!"
Still feeling uneasy, Ye Xin couldn’t help but ask, "What about weapons? What weapons will you use? Whatever you say, I’ll get it for you!"
Yang Chen shook his head and said solemnly, "No need, you don’t have to worry about weapons."
Seeing Ye Xin’s face full of worry, Master Ye said in a deep voice, "Xinxin, don’t worry! I’ll notify my subordinates to be prepared. If these people make any move, I’ll use heavy weaponry to blow them to pieces! I don’t believe heat-seeking weapons can’t take them down!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Chen quickly said, "Master, please hold off! That’s the Fla Palace you’re talking about, would you really destroy our country’s treasure?"
"I don’t care!" Master Ye shouted angrily, "If they want to harm you and Xinxin, they’ll have to get past first!"
Yang Chen reassured, "You don’t need to worry about this, I have it arranged! Xinxin, help Grandpa back to his room to rest. Let’s all rest well today and prepare for the battle tomorrow!"
Ye Xin gave Yang Chen a deep look, nodded, and assisted Master Ye in leaving.
Watching the two of them leave, Yang Chen stood there, unmoving.
Once the two of them were out of sight, Yang Chen turned and walked toward the West Garden.
Arriving at the West Garden, Yang Chen was taken aback.
Because he saw Wei Xueqing and Chen Siyan there.
"What are you two doing here?" Yang Chen frowned and asked.
This was the guest room area, not where the main family lived, and they were supposed to rest with Ye Xin.
Seeing Yang Chen, Chen Siyan and Wei Xueqing imdiately stood up, looking at Yang Chen nervously.
"What’s going on?" Yang Chen stepped forward to ask.
Chen Siyan hugged Yang Chen tightly and asked, "Brother, what happened outside just now? Why did I hear you shouting? The security wouldn’t let us out, so we didn’t see what happened."
Yang Chen smiled and rubbed Chen Siyan’s head, saying, "Silly, this is the Ye family, what could happen here? Do you know what the Ye family’s status is in our Fla Country? Don’t worry needlessly!"
"But... why were the security guards so tense, saying sothing big happened!" Chen Siyan said worriedly.
"It’s nothing, be good! Don’t worry!" Yang Chen comforted.
Wei Xueqing stared at Yang Chen and said, "If you don’t want to say, you don’t have to, but I hope you rember to take care of yourself! You have a lot of responsibilities on your shoulders, your sister and the rector still need your care, and also... Ye Xin! Protect yourself!"
Hearing this, Yang Chen looked deeply at Wei Xueqing and nodded.
He knew he had a lot of responsibilities on his shoulders.
Chen Siyan, the rector, and Ye Xin.
Asura Hall.
Dragon Tooth Squad.
Zhao Shisan, Gao Hong...
Honestly, Yang Chen didn’t think the world would stop without him.
But he was very clear, so things that were his to bear, he must bear them.
Including the families of fallen brothers, Yang Chen hadn’t yet had the opportunity to visit them.
So, in this battle, he must win!
Because he has reasons to win.
For his beloved, for his family, he cannot allow himself to fail!
"Don’t worry!" Yang Chen said solemnly, "I will be fine, don’t worry!"
