Late at night!
Ye Xuan was alone in the house, looking at the moonlight outside the window with a straight face. He knew that Ye Ping's return must have been the Ye Family's idea.
However, no matter what the Ye Family's agenda was, it was not something that Ye Xuan was worried about. If they didn't know when to back off, Ye Xuan would only have death waiting for them.
Ye Xuan's thoughts were simple. If Ye Ping really came back to be filial to his mother, he couldn't stop him. After all, Ye Ping was his mother's son, and as long as he followed the rules, he would still be Ye Ping's elder brother.
However, if Ye Ping was ambitious, even if he was Ye Xuan's biological brother, Ye Xuan would be ruthless and make him disappear completely from this world.
…
Time passed very quickly, and it had been a month since Ye Ping returned home. During this period, nothing much happened and Mrs. Ye looked radiant every day, as if she had become ten years younger. That made Ye Xuan feel a little gratified.
During this period, Xia Qingzhu visited Mrs. Ye to give her a New Year's greeting while Yun Mengyao also visited several times in the name of a home visit. However, Ye Xuan didn't show up when the two women visited. Clearly, he didn't want to have anything to do with the two women.
During this period, strange phenomena frequently appeared all over the world. Although there were no news reports, there were various rumors on the Internet.
There were foreign netizens who left comments saying that they had seen a thousand-feet-long strange snake swimming in the Amazon River and even swallowing a crocodile. Although the photo posted by the netizen was extremely blurry, it was indeed a snake-like creature.
There were also netizens from other countries who left comments saying that they had seen some terrifying things, but no one believed them. When these comments were gathered together, the netizens were very certain that the terrifying things they saw did exist, causing a huge uproar.
There were frequent murders all over the world, but the murderer couldn't be found. Many livestock and humans died without a corpse, causing great panic in some places.
Mysterious organizations of various countries showed up one after another to investigate these strange phenomena, but in the end, they didn't get the results they wanted.
…
The cold winter passed and the spring breeze blew.
In March, it was the season of spring and flowers bloomed. A patch of tender green grew from the branches and the sounds of birds chirping could be heard. Everything was slowly recovering, giving off a feeling of vitality.
In the botanical garden of the Biyun Pavilion.
Although there was still some coldness in the air, the various flowers and plants in the botanical garden had already shown some tender shoots, proving that the cold winter had passed and spring was coming.
Ye Xuan walked alone in the botanical garden until he chose an empty area before stopping.
Ye Xuan waved his fists and feet, causing ripples to blossom in the air. A wisp of hazy and illusory blood light slowly blossomed around his body.
"Phew!"
Ye Xuan spat out a mouthful of turbid air, and a muffled sound came from the other side. Only then did Ye Xuan's dancing fists and feet stop.
"Are you still not coming out after watching for so long?" Ye Xuan stood with his hands behind his back.
"Mr. Ye, please avenge me!"
A disheveled woman walked out from a hidden pile of grass. Her face was covered in dirt, making it impossible to see her appearance. However, her eyes were bloodshot as she excitedly looked at Ye Xuan in front of her.
Zhuo Junting!
Her once graceful and luxurious temperament was no longer present on her body. Her dirty clothes and disheveled appearance proved that this woman had suffered a lot in the past few months.
"Why should I help you?" Ye Xuan asked calmly.
"My grandfather is dead. My father is also dead. My second uncle, Zhuo Wenbin, did all these things. If you don't help me, I don't know who else in Jiangnan City can!" Zhuo Junting smiled sadly.
"But what does that have to do with me?" Ye Xuan shook his head slowly. His voice was emotionless.
"Mr. Ye, I beg of you!"
Bang!
Zhuo Junting suddenly knelt down and kept kowtowing to Ye Xuan. Her forehead hit the ground and blood flowed out. Tears gushed out of her eyes and her voice was trembling.
Ye Xuan spared her life at the Bohai Hotel. Later, the Zhuo family sent his information to the Leng family. Although it was Old Master Zhuo's idea and had nothing to do with Zhuo Junting, Ye Xuan was not merciful enough to repay evil with good.
"Your Zhuo family's matter has nothing to do with me. If you want revenge, it's your own business. You can leave now." Ye Xuan said calmly and turned to walk home.
"Mr. Ye, I beg of you. Please help me." Zhuo Junting cried bitterly as she looked at Ye Xuan's back.
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan was already far away. He was not soft-hearted at all.
Zhuo Junting staggered to her feet and quickly chased after Ye Xuan. However, when Ye Xuan entered the house, Zhuo Junting's eyes were filled with despair. She then knelt weakly in front of Ye Xuan's house and never got up again.
…
At the same time, in the Zhuo family's villa.
Zhuo Wenbin's expression was gloomy and cold as he leaned against the sofa. Opposite him was a haggard old man with a deathly pale complexion. His ten fingers were like ghost claws, and when his eyes opened and closed, two ghostly flames would appear. It was an extremely terrifying sight.
"Elder Ghost, we've found that damned girl. She's now in front of Mr. Ye's house. What should we do?" Zhuo Wenbin's face was gloomy and there was a hint of panic in his eyes. It was obvious that Ye Xuan had given him a lot of pressure.
"This person is not simple. We can't act rashly." Elder Ghost said solemnly.
"But if we don't kill this girl, how can I obtain the essence blood in her body to cultivate the Netherworld True Scripture?" Zhuo Wenbin said unwillingly.
"Hmph!"
Looking at the unwillingness in Zhuo Wenbin's eyes, Elder Ghost snorted coldly. "If what you said is true and this person is the one who destroyed the Leng family, I might not be his match even though I'm cultivating the Ghost Dao."
"But Elder Ghost, you're a Ghost Dao Master. You're not a true ancient martial artist. With your unpredictable methods, can't you deal with this Ye Xuan?" Zhuo Wenbin said in surprise.
"Are you an idiot?"
Elder Ghost's face was gloomy as he rebuked him directly. "Back then, when I used the ghost infant to devour your father's Qi and blood, it was broken by this person. This Ye Xuan is not simple. Without full confidence, I definitely won't go against him."
When Elder Ghost said this, fear flashed through his eyes. He actually did not tell Zhuo Wenbin the truth. Back then, when his ghost infant was broken, he was heavily injured. It took him several months to recover, and this was under the condition that he had not met Ye Xuan. If he went against Ye Xuan head-on, he probably would not be his match.
"If I didn't know that your father had joined the Leng family and completely cut ties with Ye Xuan, do you think I would so easily make a move and help you obtain the position of family head?" Elder Ghost said unhappily.
Looking at Elder Ghost's gloomy expression, Zhuo Wenbin instantly came to a realization. He said, "Are … are we just going to let this damned girl go?"
"Ha!"
Elder Ghost smiled sinisterly. A strange look flashed through his eyes. He said, "You're overthinking things. You've always put this Ye Xuan on the opposite side. From the way he does things, he's definitely not a good person. If we can become friends with him, it will be of great benefit to us. Moreover, this niece of yours might not be able to beg this expert."
Zhuo Wenbin came to a realization. That's right. He had never offended this Mr. Ye, so why couldn't he become friends with him?
"Then … then what do you mean?" Zhuo Wenbin asked carefully.
"Bring a great gift. We'll visit him personally." Elder Ghost's gaze was serious as he directly made a decision.
