“This thing! I’m acting like a thief here, and you’re enjoying yourself!” Ye Tian thought resentfully.
He tiptoed and pried open a room door, just as it opened, the room lit up brightly.
“Ye Tian, I have been waiting for you for a long time.”
“Have I become that famous already?” Ye Tian felt a moment of panic in his heart. He had been so careful, yet he hadn’t heard anyone waiting for him here. Could it be a master?
“I knew you couldn’t find out Xiao Yi’s background, so you must have come back here to investigate Zhang Qiang.” The man was Guo Bin.
“Did you set up a Barrier?” Ye Tian finally felt it and thought he had really embarrassed himself.
“Of course, coming to someone’s house in the middle of the night, I naturally have to be cautious.”
“Are you Xiao Yi’s man?”
“You could say that. Why are you investigating Xiao Yi? Your identity isn’t that simple, is it? Your Sixth Group isn’t just about cleaning, I suppose.” Guo Bin could feel the Gang Qi leaking from Ye Tian’s body.
“We are just cleaners. I just want to ask you one thing, about the incident at Bai Yanwu’s house, was it done by Xiao Yi?” Ye Tian asked sternly.
“No, we just helped things along a bit.”
“That depends on your own skills. Xiao Yi has nothing to do with this matter, you should look elsewhere. I can let bygones be bygones for today.”
“That depends on who gets the last laugh.” Ye Tian smiled, gathering his Gang Qi, ready to have a fierce fight with the man before him, “It seems you are also wary of Zhang Qiang. Isn’t sitting in the big boss’s seat uncomfortable?”
“Let’s try it then.” Guo Bin was quick to gather his energy too.
Now Ye Tian understood why Xiao Yi managed to succeed so quickly; having a master behind him and not just any common master.
Guo Bin practiced the invisible Wood Series, which didn’t quite match his outer appearance. Typically, those who practiced the Wood Series looked somewhat tree-like, but Guo Bin was big and burly, giving off a Mongolian warrior vibe.
Everything wooden in the room quickly formed a net trapping Ye Tian in the middle. Ye Tian picked up a fruit knife from the ground, waving it like a rain of swords, cutting through the surrounding tree net, but the speed of the net forming was faster than he could cut through.
“Ye Tian, you really are formidable; to achieve this extent with just an ordinary fruit knife, I admire that!”
“I admire you too!” Ye Tian, exhausted, managed to keep his composure and spoke to Guo Bin, “Who are you?”
“I’m Guo Bin. From a certain perspective, we’re not really enemies. Continuing this fight doesn’t benefit anyone, after all, we are in someone else’s house.”
“Indeed. But having finally found a worthy opponent, I don’t want to miss this opportunity to exchange moves.” Ye Tian knew he was no match for Guo Bin, but he still clenched his teeth.
“Next time then, my main purpose today was to tell you, we won’t harm Bai Yanwu, but as for Bai Shi, I can’t say.” After finishing his words, Guo Bin ended the match, and everything in the room returned to normal.
Ye Tian looked around in astonishment, almost unable to believe his own eyes.
“Are you serious?” Ye Tian asked Guo Bin earnestly.
“It’s true. After all, Bai Yanwu is not in our world, there’s no point in harming her.”
“However, Xiao Yi’s reputation isn’t that great.” Ye Tian chuckled, expressing his doubts.
“In this place, if you’re not ruthless, someone else will be ruthless to you.”
A phrase that seems to be said by many, but how many actually live by it?
Ye Tian left Zhang Qiang’s house and unexpectedly saw a woman’s figure; it was the same woman who had taken Bai Yanwu that day, emerging from Zhang Qiang’s house covered in bruises.
If Ye Tian had doubts about Guo Bin’s words before, now he believed them completely. It seems not only was Zhang Qiang involved, but this woman was also no easy opponent.
But why was she making things difficult for Bai Yanwu? This puzzled Ye Tian even more. It seems that this matter isn’t as simple as he thought.
Ye Tian realized the more he knew, the more complicated things became. It appears he needs to investigate this woman’s identity tomorrow.
Sun Yue came out of Zhang Qiang’s house covered in bruises, no matter how her man tortured her, he never let her stay the night here.
No matter how late it was, after Zhang Qiang vented, he would always kick her out. Sun Yue stood at the doorway, staring at the villa, her eyes filled with malicious light.
Today, Zhang Qiang was even more perverted. Sun Yue almost thought she would die because he knew she had messed up today’s task and had even begun to doubt Xiao Yi. From this thought, Sun Yue felt a sense of vindictive pleasure.
Ye Tian arrived home, Xiaoqian had already gone to bed. He felt his energy was a bit unstable, falteringly he sat cross-legged on the bed, quietly regulating his breathing.
Originally, Ye Tian easily divided his Gang Qi into five different colored dragons, but today it took a lot of effort, beads of sweat covering his forehead…
Ye Tian forced his mind to stabilize, trying not to let himself go astray. This night was torturous for him.
