Su Yingxin hasn’t returned for a while, and Du Bingxin is also a little worried, so she runs toward the pool.
When she reaches a spot not far from the pool, Du Bingxin sees Su Yingxin. She’s collapsed on the grass, her smooth skin showing a hint of flush, with the grass soaked in water.
...
The next day.
Qingxun Mountain.
Qingxun Mountain is a famous tourist spot in Xiangjiang, and during the peak tourist season, many people co to visit.
However, this morning, Qingxun Mountain was blocked off. Dozens of police cars were parked at the base of the mountain, and a group of police officers had set up a security line, completely sealing off Qingxun Mountain.
"Why can’t we go up? I ca all the way to Xiangjiang just to see Qingxun Mountain,"
Soone complained discontentedly.
"Sorry, please leave imdiately!"
A policeman with live ammunition replied, looking serious.
anwhile, on Qingxun Mountain, a large group of people had already gathered. They weren’t ordinary people, but big figures from Xiangjiang’s high society.
Any one of them could shock people, each being a renowned tycoon.
"Why isn’t anyone here? Didn’t the Su Family say the person is on Qingxun Mountain? Why don’t we see them?" a stout man imdiately shouted.
"Don’t worry, the Su Family and Mr. Pan are here, aren’t they? The deal is supposed to go down at the top of Qingxun Mountain; if the person wants the money, they have to show up."
A middle-aged man with gold wire glasses said calmly.
It’s true, Pan Longjiang’s fa in Xiangjiang is imnse, attracting such upper-crust figures who specifically ca to Qingxun Mountain just to see Pan Longjiang take action again.
This old man who once fought against the Huaxia War God Ge Min holds a reputation so illustrious that everyone is eagerly waiting to see what realm Pan Longjiang has reached after years of painstaking effort.
"The Su Family has arrived," soone called out.
Indeed, a group of people began walking up from the foot of the mountain, with their path cleared by dedicated bodyguards in black, as a majestic procession of the Su Family made their way to Qingxun Mountain.
"Wow, Su Tianhui, Su Tianqing have shown up, Su Yunhe is here too, along with a bunch of Su Family juniors. The Su Family’s core has turned out en masse."
"Twenty billion! That’s no small amount; it’s pivotal to the Su Family’s rise and fall. Of course, they’d take it seriously."
The group of Xiangjiang tycoons imdiately began discussing.
"Haha, six months ago I visited Su Yunhe, at that ti he was already paralyzed in bed, his blood frozen stagnantly, barely flowing, practically on the brink of death. I didn’t expect him to co back to life looking so vibrant."
"Haha, I must admit, Ye Qingfeng is truly a Divine Doctor. Su Yunhe being so full of life now is largely thanks to his elixir. Su Yunhe’s life, even parting with thirty billion in funds, is worth it!"
The Xiangjiang tycoons, even though their financial backgrounds at ho aren’t as strong as the Su Family, aren’t too far off either, so they comnt without restraint.
Then, the middle-aged man with gold wire glasses took off his glasses, wiping them gently, and said: "This is human nature. If back when Su Yunhe was dying, the Divine Doctor offered the elixir and asked Su Yunhe to pay twenty billion to buy it, he would most likely agree without hesitation."
"But now, it’s different. Su Yunhe is recovered, having forgotten the fear of death; asking him to pay now, twenty billion, how could he not feel the pain?"
The middle-aged man with gold wire glasses finished speaking, and everyone nodded; indeed, that’s how human nature works.

"Xiao Yan, why is this place blocked? Maybe we should head back." Du Tianyang said to Liu Feiyan on Qingxun Mountain, looking at the police line in dissatisfaction.
"No way, Ye Qingfeng and the others haven’t co down yet; they must still be up the mountain. Didn’t you say one of the won is your cousin? We must go and see."
Liu Feiyan imdiately denied resolutely.
Actually, she also doesn’t know why she’s determined to go up; she doesn’t really have much connection to Ye Qingfeng.
In fact, Ye Qingfeng had even caused quite a commotion at their Liu Family.
"But now there are so many SWAT officers, the mountain is completely sealed off, and we can’t get up there!" Du Tianyang said helplessly.
"Aren’t you from the northeast Du family? Can’t you handle such a small matter?"
Liu Feiyan replied, slightly disdainful.
Being disdained by a beauty, Du Tianyang naturally felt quite displeased, and he imdiately ran to the group of SWAT officers, ready to reveal his identity. No matter what, he couldn’t let Liu Feiyan look down on him.
"Sorry, no matter what your identity is, Qingxun Mountain is off-limits right now. We’re doing this for your safety," said a SWAT team captain seriously, refusing.
The SWAT team captain doesn’t believe this person is from so prominent family. You see, the big shots qualified to go up the mountain had already gone up earlier.
He assud this guy is at most an ignorant and low-status upstart, the SWAT captain speculated.
Now the orders they’ve received are to let no one pass, regardless of identity.
"Xiao Yan, forget it, it seems we really can’t go up; maybe there’s a landslide up there, and it could be dangerous to go on." Du Tianyang said helplessly to Liu Feiyan.
Xiangjiang isn’t his territory, he’s not free to do as he pleases. Truth be told, Du Tianyang isn’t unprincipled like so rich kid; compared to other families’ rich offspring, he’s far better.
Just then, an old man walked over alone, dressed in white Tang attire, possessing an ethereal aura, giving off the vibe of an out-of-world master.
"Hey, old man, best go back, Qingxun Mountain’s had a landslide, you can’t go up to tour," Du Tianyang shouted to the old man.
The old man glanced at Du Tianyang, smiled faintly, and without replying, continued walking toward the mountain.
What surprised Du Tianyang was that when the old man approached, the SWAT officers not only didn’t stop him, but respectfully cleared the security line and saluted him.
The old man, calm and unhurried, walked step by step toward Qingxun Mountain.
"Why can he go up?" Du Tianyang was suddenly angry; he is at least a direct lineage of a prominent family, yet receiving less attention than an old man.
Though his family’s influence is in the northeast, given the Du family’s strength, he should receive VIP treatnt anywhere in Huaxia.
"How could you even compare to Mr. Pan? You don’t even know who Mr. Pan is, dare claiming to be from a prestigious family?"
The SWAT team captain imdiately replied disdainfully, becoming even more convinced Du Tianyang is just an upstart.
Du Tianyang was left speechless, being disdained in front of Liu Feiyan. If it weren’t so embarrassing, he truly wanted to shout: I’m genuinely direct lineage from a prestigious family!
