Chapter 678: Chapter 678: Contest of Identities
“Do you dare to bet with one more ti?”
Upon hearing this, Hua Tian imdiately furrowed his brows and scoffed, “What do you want to bet on?”
He thought Ye Xuan was pretending to be mysterious, and once he lost the protection of Liu Ying, he didn’t believe the other party could turn the tables in front of this group of police detectives!
Ye Xuan gave a calm smile and said, “I bet that they don’t have the ability to catch ! Not only will they not catch , but they’ll also apologize for their mistake! Of course, provided that I won’t use force or rely on the Liu Family’s power, and all this within ten minutes. What do you think?”
Upon hearing Ye Xuan’s conditions, Hua Tian was startled, then sneered more scornfully in his mind, convinced that the other party was courting death!
Seeing Ye Xuan so eager to court death, he naturally wouldn’t oppose. He imdiately asked, “What is at stake?”
“If you win, you can do as you wish with ! If I win, you’ll have to slap yourself twice in front of !”
Ye Xuan replied nonchalantly, “How about it? Do you dare to bet with ?”
Hua Tian furrowed his brows again, his gaze towards Ye Xuan beca slightly suspicious.
The other party’s terms were so extre that he either must have lost his mind or he was absolutely confident of winning! But did he have the power to win?
After a mont of silence, Hua Tian’s expression beca uncertain.
Finally, he gritted his teeth, looked up at Ye Xuan, and said, “Fine! I’ll take your bet!”
He didn’t believe Ye Xuan could win. Now, the biggest obstacle was Liu Ying; as long as Liu Ying didn’t intervene, Ye Xuan was no match for him, and he could crush his opponent however he wanted!
Besides, with him holding an absolute advantage in such a public setting, and being provoked by Ye Xuan this way, if he didn’t agree, he’d lose face.
Especially since everyone present were top societal elites, if he backed down in front of Ye Xuan, his reputation as Huayun’s number one Young Master would beco a complete joke.
So, no matter what, he couldn’t back down!
Moreover, if he didn’t agree, it ant Liu Ying would continue protecting Ye Xuan, leaving him with no way to touch Ye Xuan. It was better to agree, at least there was a chance to win.
“Alright, then let the bet officially begin! You’d better start timing now, to prevent reneging later.”
Seeing that Hua Tian had agreed, Ye Xuan imdiately grinned and snapped his fingers, saying.
After speaking, he paid no further attention to the others, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and flipped to the contacts page.
From the many contacts, he found a number called Wei Hongjun, and dialed it.
The call was answered in less than three rings, and a hearty, robust voice ca from the other side, laughing, “Ye Xuan, is that you, kid?”
“Uncle Wei, it’s .” Ye Xuan also laughed.
“Haha! It really is you, kid. It’s been a long ti since our last encounter; I thought you had forgotten about , old Wei!”
Wei Hongjun’s robust laughter showed he was very pleased.
Ye Xuan modestly replied, “Uncle Wei, how could I possibly forget you? I’ve just been really busy lately, so I didn’t think to call you.”
“Alright, quit that pretense with ! I know you, kid; you only visit the temple when you’re in need. Tell , what do you want this ti?”
Wei Hongjun imdiately pinpointed Ye Xuan’s purpose.
Ye Xuan was straightforward, as he indeed needed the other’s help. After a mont of thought, he spoke truthfully, “Uncle Wei, here’s the situation. I’m back in Yan Country, on a business trip here in Huayun City, Jianghai Province. Last night, two assassins snuck into my room, attempting to assassinate my friend, but I killed them directly. However, the police here are clinging to the matter, insisting that I’ve committed murder and want to arrest to serve ti! I need you to intervene and settle this.”
“There’s such a matter?”
On the phone, Wei Hongjun frowned, then said nonchalantly:
“But killing two assassins doesn’t count as a sin. Here’s what I’ll do—I’ll give a heads-up to old Zhao at the Huadong Military Region to sort this out for you.”
“Thank you, Uncle Wei! I’m in a bit of a hurry here; it’d be great if it can be resolved within ten minutes.”
Ye Xuan nodded in response.
“No problem! You don’t need to tell ; I wouldn’t delay your matters! That’s all for now; I’m going to call old Zhao.”
After finishing, Wei Hongjun hung up the phone.
Seeing this scene, all those present exchanged glances!
Clearly, they recognized that Ye Xuan was pulling in external support, a simple yet most effective thod currently.
If the external support was strong enough and had enough backing, it wouldn’t require much effort; a simple phone call could easily resolve the matter!
Up to this point, the key to winning the bet lay in whether Ye Xuan could secure a powerful ally.
Put simply, this was also a competition of identities!
Could Ye Xuan’s identity exceed that of Hua Tian? Because, whoever had a higher status would ultimately win.
Comparatively, everyone was more familiar with Hua Tian, the affluent young master of the Hua Family, the top young master of Huayun City!
His fa had already echoed throughout Huayun City and even among the wealthy circles of Jianghai, he was quite renowned. Only a few young masters from top-tier families could possibly surpass him!
As for Ye Xuan, his exact identity was unclear; even from the few words revealed by Liu Ying, no accurate judgnt could be made. However, given that Liu Ying had taken notice of him, his identity should be not low!
Moreover, judging from Ye Xuan’s piano skills demonstrated earlier and the aura he exuded, along with his calm deanor after killing the two n, his background must also be extraordinary! And it seed his identity was even more mysterious.
One was the well-known number one young master of Huayun, the other, the enigmatic Ye Xuan!
Thus, who was stronger, who was weaker, could Ye Xuan truly suppress Hua Tian?
At this mont, everyone present pondered this thought and speculated in their own minds.
However, most of them were pessimistic about Ye Xuan, feeling he likely could not surpass Hua Tian!
After all, the latter’s identity spoke for itself, belonging to the top tier in Jianghai Province! Even if Ye Xuan was a distinguished youth from other provinces and cities, he could at best match him in terms of status.
Unless Ye Xuan’s background was remarkably significant, maybe from top-tier families in places like Shangjing or East Capital, possibly relying on family power and connections, he might overco Hua Tian!
However, this possibility was not highly considered; only a few believed this, and betting played a greater role.
Because, influential families from Shangjing or East Capital weren’t so easily encountered.
This group of elite young masters would hardly co to such places, let alone make an appearance.
Ye Xuan’s identity had already been deed by them as unable to surpass Hua Tian, so the probability of Ye Xuan losing the bet was high!
