Not long after Ye Chen returned home, Yang Tian came.
Yang Tian came and kept apologizing to Ye Chen for the class reunion. Ye Chen let him go after comforting him for a while.
In reality, he did not care about that at all. To put it in a song, the memories would fade as time went by. Some people were destined to never be together.
The little girl fell asleep after playing in his embrace for a while. Ye Chen got his mother to carry her into the house.
Just when he was going back to his room to cultivate, the Patriarch of Hell ran in.
The first thing the patriarch said when he entered was, "Master, err, I'm missing a woman again."
Ye Chen was speechless.
…
In the middle of the night, Ye Chen arrived at a club that was owned by Lin Tai. The Patriarch of Hell walked into the room like he was familiar with it. He ordered two women at once and said that he would not come out for two hours.
Ye Chen had nothing to say to its weird cultivation method. He entered a separate room with Lin Tai and said expressionlessly, "Is there any news from Beijing?"
Lin Tai's expression turned serious and he said in his deep voice, "My lord, the people I sent have bribed the Su family's security. They only found out that the madam has been secretly locked up. There's still no news on where she's being locked up."
"Locked up?"
Ye Chen frowned. Although he had guessed that would be the case, he was still furious.
"Anything else?"
Lin Tai nodded and said, "Apart from that, we also found out about the Su family's basic situation. The madam has two brothers. The eldest is Su Qilin while the second is Su Tao.
Rumor has it that when Su Qilin was born, there was a phenomenon of a qilin stepping on clouds above the Su family's residence. Therefore, he was named Su Qilin, the Su family's qilin son.
Theoretically, as the eldest son, he should have inherited the family's business and joined the military or politics. However, it was said that he was taken away by a traveling Taoist when he was five years old. Since then, he has disappeared from the public's sight.
On the other hand, his younger brother, Su Tao, shone and became the new rich man in Beijing. He even took over most of the Su family's affairs. "
Ye Chen's expression turned serious slightly upon hearing that.
He was born with a qilin phenomenon?
Qilin was the symbol of a saint. Those who were not wise or wise did not deserve to be called a qilin.
Perhaps that was just a rumor.
If that was the case, it should be Su Tao who stepped on him and humiliated him back then.
Ye Chen secretly scoffed as he thought to this point.
Su Family, just you wait!
Two more months!
He got up and walked to Lin Tai. He extended his arm and patted Lin Tai's shoulder lightly. "You've done great. Send more people to keep an eye on him. Let me know if there's any movement."
Lin Tai responded respectfully, but there was a storm stirred in his heart.
The reason being, he realized that Ye Chen had only patted him a few times, and the internal injuries that were left behind by hard work in his body healed instantly.
At that moment, there was even more respect in his eyes when he looked at Ye Chen. There was a hint of excitement in his respect.
The High Lord was indeed not a mortal!
…
Half an hour later, Patriarch Yellow Spring came out. He was trembling as he walked, looking like he would fall at any time.
Ye Chen glanced at him and chuckled.
What happened to the promised two hours?
As if sensing someone's disdain, the Patriarch of Hell said awkwardly, "Erm, Master, I've finally broken through to the middle stage of the Spirit Gathering State."
Speaking of which …
However, the Patriarch was overjoyed.
Little Yezi, ah, Little Yezi.
'I'm on the middle stage of the Spirit Gathering State now.
I've recorded everything you've done to me in my notebook. Sooner or later, I'm going to sit on your head and shit and piss on you.
'My cultivation speed is faster than yours. Just you wait. When my cultivation base surpasses yours, I'll think of a way to trick that silly girl, Mengmeng, to break the blood contract with me. Then, I'll turn you into a dog.'
"You're on the middle stage of the Spirit Gathering State now?" Ye Chen had no idea what he was thinking, but he was rather shocked.
"That's right. I was playing with two phoenixes earlier, and I broke through in the end."
The Patriarch of Hell chuckled. "Don't be envious, Master. I have a Heavenly Yin Harvesting Divine Method here. You can definitely get to the Foundation Building after you harvest all those beautiful teachers and cold female CEOs that you know."
Ye Chen was speechless.
Seeing that he was silent, the patriarch thought that he was tempted. He rolled his eyes and instigated again, "You don't want it? Sure, I have a Yin-Yang Integration Method here. It's gentle. I guarantee that all women will fall in love with you … "
"I suddenly feel like eating dog meat again." Ye Chen chuckled and interrupted his long-winded speech.
The patriarch was speechless.
"Let's go."
Ye Chen walked out of the clubhouse after saying that. He did not care about what the patriarch said.
He was an Immortal Emperor, so he did not care about such an evil method to strengthen himself.
Moreover, the Emperor Scripture, the Emperor Cauldron, and the Earth Emperor's Book that he cultivated were known as the Three Ultimate Treasures of Heaven, Earth, and Man. They were above everything, so no evil method could compare to them.
He got into the car with the patriarch. Just when he was going home, he received a call from Gu Yingying. "Master Ye, are you free now?"
"What's up?" Ye Chen was stunned.
Gu Yingying took a deep breath in and said in her deep voice, "My grandpa has something important to tell you. I'll pick you up if you're free."
"No need. I happen to be outside. How about this? I'll come over."
Ye Chen hung up the phone after saying that and drove to the Gu residence.
The old master treated him well. It was rare for him to have something to trouble him, so it was impossible for him to ignore it.
Over half an hour later, the car arrived at the Gu residence successfully. Gu Yingying was waiting at the gate.
Ye Chen got the Patriarch of Hell to wait for him in the car. He then got out of the car and walked in with Gu Yingying.
As soon as he walked in, the Old Master Gu walked up to him in his coat. "I'm ashamed that I have to trouble Master Ye to visit me at night."
"You're being too polite, Old Master. Just tell me what you want to say." Ye Chen smiled and subsequently sat down.
Gu Yingying stood aside and made him tea.
The old master hesitated and said in his deep voice, "I wonder if Master Ye has heard of the Tiannan Martial Arts Competition?"
Ye Chen shook his head.
The old master paused and said, "There are three provinces in Tiannan. Each province has its own organization that's complicated. Meanwhile, each organization has power in the military, politics, and business world.
As the saying goes, there will be fights wherever there are people. Due to the conflict of interests, many conflicts have accumulated over the years.
To resolve such conflicts, the bosses of each organization will privately agree to resolve the conflicts in a relatively peaceful way. They might even divide the benefits. "
Ye Chen smiled lightly when he heard that. He roughly understood the old master's intention. "To put it simply, both parties will resolve their conflicts in private without outsiders knowing."
"That's right. The Martial Arts Competition means that there's a martial arts competition once a year!" Gu Yingying interrupted.
Ye Chen was surprised. "What's a martial arts competition?"
The old master nodded and said, "It's a competition where both parties sit down and resolve the conflicts in the most primitive and brutal way by fighting in the ring. Not only will the one who wins be proud, but the one who wins will also get the desired benefits."
"Don't you guys have your own power? Why don't you use the cards in your hands to compete and gamble? "Ye Chen asked.
"Although everyone has a deck of cards, we have to follow the rules of the cards."
The old master forced a smile and said, "All parties have power in the military, politics, and business. If all of them are involved, it'll definitely stir up a huge commotion. Moreover, the higher-ups won't allow that to happen."
The higher-ups?
Ye Chen was slightly stunned. Subsequently, he understood what the old master meant. He said calmly, "So, Old Master, are you asking me to participate in this martial arts competition? To fight to the death for you guys? "
The old master seemed to have noticed his displeasure, so he explained immediately, "In the past, my family has always hired external help. However, I heard that Qiannan's Liu Chuang hired a very powerful external help this year. His target is our family."
"Liu Chuang? Isn't that the guy who lost to me in stone gambling at the antique city and had his finger severed? "Ye Chen frowned.
Gu Yingying could not stop nodding. "That's right. That's him. Liu Chuang hired an expert to spread the news. Not only is he going to take revenge on my family, but he's also going to take revenge on you, Master Ye. He even said …"
"What else did he say?"
"He even said that he's going to kill your entire family!"
As soon as Gu Yingying was done speaking, the temperature in the entire living room dropped all of a sudden.
Ye Chen laughed out of rage. "Kill my entire family? He's just a dog who's down in the water. How dare he say that? I shouldn't have let him go that day. Forget it. Old Master, I'll accept the martial arts competition. "
"I'd like to see what kind of expert he hired to give him such confidence!"
