To be honest, this so-called cousin Ge Sang really gave Ye Xuan a problem!
He wasn’t satisfied with just watching Ye Xuan and the Wang Family reignite their conflict; he even dragged the Southern Border’s Elder Xuan into it.
This person’s scheming is truly deep.
But he doesn’t realize that Ye Xuan already knows there’s another mastermind behind the scenes, or at least, even if it’s just Wang Xiaoyan, it won’t provoke a fight between the Wang Family and Ye Xuan, because the Wang Family also fears Ye Xuan’s strength, or rather, the power behind Ye Xuan.
Although they are the top family in Yanjing, apart from Elder Mo, no one is a match for Ye Xuan, and Wang Chaoyang is not a match for Ye Xuan’s master.
Understanding this, the Wang Family has started ignoring Ye Xuan.
And the only ones Ye Xuan has to deal with are the Wang Family’s mistress, Madam Mo—Nangong Lifen, and Wang Shaoyang’s sister, that woman Wang Xiaoyan! But how can these two won match Ye Xuan’s scheming?
And soone as powerful as Ge Sang is not soone soone like Liu Haoyang could summon.
So Ye Xuan had long suspected there was another person behind Ge Sang. But who it was remained unknown. Originally, it could have been easy to uproot them all, but with the disappearance of that Spiritual Energy Mark, or rather, the disappearance of Ge Sang, the entire clear situation has once again beco complicated.
The focus returns to the serene stairwell in the hospital.
"I placed a mark on Ge Sang, but... now I can’t sense it."
Ye Xuan’s expression was sowhat unpleasant, but he still offered an explanation.
"So..."
Liu Ying’s eyes glittered, instantly understanding.
"Yes, that Gu Master... which ans Ge Sang is dead." Ye Xuan said in a low voice.
"What?"
Though Liu Ying had already understood so things, she was still inevitably startled.
"It seems the enemy is more terrifying than we imagined."
Ye Xuan was lost in thought, muttering to himself.
anwhile, he took Liu Ying’s hand and started walking downstairs.
During this not-so-long journey, Ye Xuan’s mind went through countless twists and turns.
First of all, the person behind all of this wouldn’t kill Ge Sang out of fear of Ye Xuan, because at that ti Ge Sang was like a lone wolf, with all his poisons and sches destroyed by Ye Xuan.
Secondly, Ge Sang’s formidable skills, especially hypnosis and Gu technique, were essential and terrifying abilities for a powerful family to establish itself in the underworld. Physical strength might be important, but it could never impose the sa level of pressure that these invisible killing thods could!
Of course, lastly, although Ye Xuan had many enemies, in his mory, none of those who have attacked him so far could possibly employ such a skilled Gu Master, at least, not in Hai City.
So where did the problem arise?
"Honey, don’t overthink it. Maybe the other side has a bigger plot! I believe in your strength!"
Liu Ying tugged at Ye Xuan’s hand, speaking softly with deep concern.
Seeing Ye Xuan like this made her uncomfortable, as it was because of her that a chain of events had unfolded.
"A bigger plot... dear wife! I think I understand! Hahahahaha, all thanks to you!"
It was a casual remark from Liu Ying that enlightened Ye Xuan.
Initially, Ye Xuan thought he was working for a big family like Old Wine back then, but what if he wasn’t!
Ye Xuan’s mind suddenly beca clear; then there was only one possibility: the opposing party was not as unified as they seed, and Ge Sang was not alone; there was soone else behind him, and they were even more powerful than Ge Sang!
This mastermind wanted to spark a conflict between the Wang Family, Ye Xuan, and the powers behind Ge Sang!
"Hiss... what a sinister mind."
Realizing this, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but gasp.
But fortunately, things were still under control. Since soone would make a move against him, everything would be easier to manage, after all, the Wang Family wouldn’t be involved in his matters any longer and might even help him at the right ti.
Ye Xuan thought calmly and didn’t share these thoughts with Liu Ying; this kind of pressure he bore alone since Liu Ying’s abilities couldn’t offer him any help.
"Honey, are you okay... have you figured sothing out again?"
Liu Ying looked at the man in front of her gesticulating and thought he had gone mad, asking nervously in a low voice.
"Nothing, nothing, you reminded !"
Ye Xuan excitedly held Liu Ying’s hand as he spoke.
"How did I remind you of sothing? What’s with you today, acting like a madman?"
Liu Ying noticed Ye Xuan didn’t seem as repressed as before, and her mood improved.
"You silly girl, calling your man that! You’ll regret that tonight!"
Ye Xuan said, playfully tapping Liu Ying.
"Hey! We’re in public!" Liu Ying protested in dissatisfaction.
Yet she still let Ye Xuan lead her to the parking lot.
With the roar of the car engine, the two of them soon returned to the hotel.
Along this journey, Ye Xuan figured things out; since it’s certain soone would make a move against him, why bother contemplating?
When soldiers co, you use generals to hold them off; when water cos, earth dams it!
This is the best solution.
Besides, his dical technique provides solutions against poisonous insects, and with his combat skills, hmm, just let anyone who dares co and try.
Ye Xuan parked the car and led Liu Ying back into the room.
Over at the Southern Border Airport.
The flight at 10:40 AM was preparing for boarding.
An old man and a young woman waited in the hall, both dressed in Miao Clan attire.
The elder was over sixty, yet his body was exceptionally vigorous, wearing a short gown with a left gusset and simple trousers below, a broad belt, and a cyan scarf wrapped around his head, with long hair tied into a topknot, a long wooden hairpin inserted—upon closer inspection, it bore several small holes.
The young woman beside him also wore traditional Miao clothing, exuding a cold aura that sharply contrasted with her appearance.
A once innocent and spirited little girl, her heart now clouded by hatred. After all, soone had killed her most beloved senior brother.
Soon, the boarding announcent ca on.
"Attention passengers heading to Hai City: Flight CH5648 is now boarding. Please proceed to counter 18 to check-in, thank you."
Following that, a string of Federation language followed, signaling the start of their trip to Hai City, or rather... to exact revenge there.
The two were Elder Xuan and his young apprentice, Xiao Ying.
"Master, this is the flight we need to take." Xiao Ying spoke to Elder Xuan.
"Let’s go, it’s been too long since we went out, I’m becoming useless,"
The old man murmured, it was unclear if he spoke to his apprentice or himself, revealing an old man’s helplessness.
But for his disciple, he would brave even the deepest abyss!
