"This kid is becoming more and more interesting, previously Xiao Yiyun was ordered to capture him, and it’s said that they fought each other to a draw!"
"Xiao Yiyun has been taught by that person from the Golden Dragon Pavilion, his strength is no less than those young talents of the Martial Arts World, it was unexpected that he still couldn’t defeat him, and now he has even returned directly to his master’s side for seclusion, this kid is indeed getting more and more intriguing!"
Situ Yuntian let out an amused smile.
"In my eyes, he will always be a useless person!"
Situ Qian said with an icy and disdainful snort, exuding a sense of superiority like a cold and glamorous queen.
Shu Capital, Tang Sect.
Inside a living room of Tang Sect, Sect Leader Tang Shihai was talking to Tang Shihe when suddenly his face changed, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he let out a pained cry.
Tang Shihai quickly covered his head, his face filled with an agonized expression.
"Big brother, what’s wrong?"
Tang Shihe quickly asked.
"Father, does your head hurt again?"
Tang Shengyi walked in, saw his father’s expression, and quickly supported him.
After a full ten seconds or so, the headache symptoms of Tang Shihai finally subsided, his complexion turned slightly pale, and his forehead was sweating profusely.
"Father, this won’t do, there must be something wrong with your body, shall I go find my friend to have a look at you?"
Tang Shengyi said in a deep voice.
"Shengyi, what friend are you talking about? I think it’s better to just invite Young Master Yao over, with his ability a mere headache would be effortlessly resolved."
Tang Shihe said spontaneously.
"If he were so capable, my father wouldn’t have this headache anymore!"
Tang Shengyi snorted with disdain, then said, "Uncle, please take good care of my father, I’ll go find my friend."
After speaking, Tang Shengyi left the place.
"Big brother, who is this friend Shengyi mentioned? Is he really that impressive?"
Tang Shihe looked at Tang Shihai with a flicker in his eyes.
"I’m not clear on that, this friend is a young man she met when she went down the mountain, supposedly skilled in medical arts, and also understands alchemy, but I don’t know the specifics," Tang Shihai shook his head.
An hour later, Tang Shihe and the Young Master of Medicine King Valley, Yao Haoran, gathered together.
"Tang Shengyi must have gone to find that kid!"
Yao Haoran’s eyes flashed with an obscure light, his expression slightly cold.
"Young Master Yao, what should we do now? Could that person Shengyi mentioned see through anything?"
Tang Shihe said with some concern.
"Don’t worry, what can a greenhorn possibly find out? Plus, it’s good that he comes this time; we couldn’t act against him openly in the secular world before, this time I’ll make sure he arrives but can’t leave!"
Yao Haoran’s mouth curved into a cold smile, his eyes glinting with a chilly light.
Meanwhile, outside Tianhai Ye Corporation, the figure of Shen Yuting’s mother, Mei Fangting, appeared, and Xiao Yifeng quickly walked out from inside.
"Aunt, what brings you here?"
Xiao Yifeng looked at Mei Fangting with puzzlement.
"This is something Yuting left for you, she asked me to pass it on to you!"
Mei Fangting handed a letter to Xiao Yifeng.
"Yuting left it for me? Where has she gone?"
Xiao Yifeng looked startled.
"She has already gone abroad, to Europe to study!"
"Why did she suddenly decide to go study in Europe?"
Xiao Yifeng’s expression changed.
"Too many things have happened recently, and her second uncle has passed away, so she wants to leave this place to relax abroad and take the opportunity to study!"
Xiao Yifeng nodded his head.
"Actually, if you weren’t already engaged, I really would have hoped you two could be a couple. I can tell that Yuting has feelings for you, and that’s why she chose to leave—to forget this affection!"
Mei Fangting said, then left the place.
Xiao Yifeng opened the letter. On it was a drawing of a man and a woman holding hands, the man was naturally him, and the woman appeared to be Shen Yuting.
"To love does not mean to be together; as long as the other person is happy, being apart doesn’t matter!"
Beneath this drawing was a passage of text, clearly written by Shen Yuting.
Looking at the drawing and the words, Xiao Yifeng knew that he was already in Shen Yuting’s heart. But due to his own status, she had chosen to give up and thus decided to leave the country, hoping to forget it all.
"Ah... debts of love are hard to repay!"
Xiao Yifeng let out a sigh, with a touch of apology.
Just then, his phone suddenly rang, a call from Song Zhiyuan of the Suhang Song Family.
Instead of Song Zhiyuan’s voice, the chilling voice of Bai Zixiong came through from the other end.
Xiao Yifeng immediately recognized the voice, his eyebrows furrowed and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
"Didn’t expect this, did you? Now, all the people of the Song Family are in my hands. I wonder if you’d like to see them being killed?"
Bai Zixiong said with a sinister tone.
"You’ve gone through quite the trouble to deal with me. But do you think by capturing these people, who have nothing to do with me, you can threaten me?"
Xiao Yifeng said disdainfully.
"If you don’t feel threatened, that’s fine. I’ll just have to kill them all and send their bodies to the Ye Corporation. Hope you won’t regret it!"
Bai Zixiong said with a frosty voice.
Xiao Yifeng’s eyes hardened.
"Come to the Bai Family, and don’t notify anyone!"
Bai Zixiong snorted coldly, then hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Bai Zixiong’s mouth curved into a chilling grimace as he looked at Song Zhiyuan, who was tied up in front of him.
"That kid really values loyalty. He’s not entirely a ruthless person, which means he’s doomed to die in the end!"
"Bai Zixiong, you’ve gone completely mad. Do you realize what you’re doing? Do you truly believe the Bai Family can cover the sky with one hand in Suhang?"
Song Zhiyuan shouted in anger.
"No need to be so angry. I won’t do anything to you. You’re just a tool I’m using to lure that kid here to his death. Once he’s dead, I will take over the entire Song Family, and then your Song Family will be spared."
Bai Zixiong sneered, his eyes filled with a bone-chilling coldness.
Time ticked by and night gradually fell. After several hours, darkness enveloped the land of China completely.
At this moment, all the lights were on in the Bai Family mansion. In the hall, Elder Xu sat at the highest seat with Bai Zixiong, who had a cold expression, and Bai Qingmu standing beside him.
"Zixiong, are you sure he will come?"
"He’s a man of loyalty. The Song Family has helped him, so he will definitely come. When he does, not only will I revenge the previous humiliation, but with him in our hands, we will get everything—Ye Corporation, the new energy, and Ye Yaxin."
Bai Zixiong’s eyes twinkled like those of a venomous snake, sending a shiver down the spine of anyone who looked at him.
