Ye Fan nodded, “I have already woken up, but not many people know this secret, and you are one of them. I hope that before I make it public, you can keep this secret for me!”
“Ah?” Zhao Datou was again taken aback, looking at Ye Fan with a face full of astonishment.
In the back of his mind, Zhao Datou felt that he had stumbled across an extraordinary opportunity.
Ye Fan was not foolish, such an important secret, yet Young Master Ye had confided the truth to him, Young Master Ye must have his own plans.
“I will definitely keep the secret!” Zhao Datou shifted his body, not saying much, and quietly waited for Ye Fan’s next arrangement.
Ye Fan was very satisfied with Zhao Datou’s reaction, such a response was befitting of a qualified bodyguard, “You did very well today, you protected my wife with your life! As a reward, I will help you enter the Martial Realm, and I will also give you Elixir Pills to aid your advancement… I hope that when I am not by Yixue’s side, you can still protect her like you did today!” freewēbnoveℓ.com
As he spoke, Ye Fan channeled a stream of Qi Force along his arm, furiously pouring into Zhao Datou’s body.
Zhao Datou was so excited he could barely speak!
Martial Arts Qi?
Young Master Ye was actually going to help him step into the Martial Realm and cultivate Martial Arts?
One must know that along the path of Martial Arts, from Energy Transformation to Control, Grandmaster, Martial Venerable, Martial Emperor… the journey of cultivation is extremely arduous, and 99.99% of people, throughout their lives, cannot cultivate Martial Arts Qi, let alone advance further.
A martial artist of the Martial Realm in Great Xia, even the most basic Energy Transformation Master, is an exceedingly rare and sought-after talent!
And now by some twist of fate, he had acquired this?
Moreover, after that Martial Arts Qi entered his body, Zhao Datou could clearly feel that both his internal and external injuries were healing at the speed visible to the eye.
Is this the advantage of a Martial Dao Cultivator?
“Thank you, Young Master Ye, thank you, Young Master Ye!” Zhao Datou didn’t even know how to thank Ye Fan properly.
“Don’t talk, feel the flow of Qi Force within your body attentively, I will only teach you once! How quickly you can comprehend it depends on your own talent!” After Ye Fan swiftly guided Zhao Datou through a complete cycle of the Martial Arts Qi, he left several Elixir Pills with Zhao Datou and then left the hospital room.
Xia Hao, who was standing guard at the door, although he did not intend to eavesdrop, just happened to overhear Ye Fan’s conversation with Zhao Datou very clearly because he was at the door.
Zhao Datou had received such a huge benefit simply by protecting Su Yixue.
This decision to cooperate with the Su Family was completely the right one.
Under the current situation, the Liu Family had already taken action. It might be that both the Su Corporation and he himself would endure some hardships, but as long as they could withstand them, the days ahead were looking bright!
…
In a villa somewhere in Cloud City, Xu Dong and his father sat on the sofa, anxious.
“Dad! The Zhao Family was suddenly wiped out; we’ve lost our biggest partner in an instant. Without the Zhao Family’s support, our own power may not be enough to take down Ye Corporation!” Xu Dong was worried. Although they had been operating Ye Corporation for many years and had planted a lot of their confidants in the company,
Ye Corporation was, after all, the Ye Family’s business, and the company’s veterans were essentially Ye Changfeng’s staunch supporters.
Without external support, just with Xu Dong and Xu Jian’s power, it would be very difficult to take control of Ye Corporation.
“Why not, we find someone to directly take out that old thing and that fool at home?” Xu Dong was rather impatient, “I found out last night that a Grandmaster named Fan Ye has appeared in Cloud City. As long as the price is right, I think he would definitely make a move.”
Xu Jian pondered for a good while before saying, “What’s the rush? There are others who are more anxious than we are about the current situation of the Ye Family! Those legitimate line disciples of the Ye Family will not rest until they are dead, and neither will the people who have acted against the Ye Family!”
“Besides, don’t forget, although the Ye Family has suffered a great blow now, with Yu Linglong and Su Yixue and others boldly announcing their marriage to Ye Fan, those other families are not to be trifled with! We should just wait patiently!”
“`
The conversation paused momentarily before Xu Jian continued, “However, regarding that grandmaster in Cloud City you mentioned, if we don’t expose ourselves, we can give it a try!”
Xu Dong’s eyes lit up, “Dad! Don’t worry, I already got an account. I’ll post the task immediately. Grandmasters usually have accounts, and if that big shot sees it, he will surely take the job!”
…
At the Cloud City People’s Hospital, Ye Fan had just left Zhao Datou’s ward when his phone suddenly received an encrypted alert.
Upon opening it, it was a task notification.
Five years ago, after breaking through into the Grandmaster Realm, Ye Fan had registered an account and had taken quite a few tasks since then, ranking quite high even now.
Initially, Ye Fan wasn’t concerned about the notification, but he unexpectedly saw both his and Ye Changfeng’s names, causing him to frown.
Someone was putting out a bounty to kill him and his grandfather?
Astonishingly, according to the IP address, the person offering the bounty was in Cloud City?
Furthermore, in the remark section, the employer specifically instructed to meet the person taking up the task and to witness the targets’ deaths with his own eyes.
Hmph!
How bold!
Ye Fan snorted coldly through his nostrils, accepted the task, and sent a message arranging to meet under the Central Bridge of Cloud City at midnight.
Ye Fan was also curious to see who was in such a hurry to put a bounty on his and his grandfather’s heads.
The offered price started at an astonishing two billion!
“Young Master Ye…” Xia Hao respectfully called out upon seeing Ye Fan emerge, observing any changes in his expression.
Ye Fan nodded, looked around, and seeing no one else, he continued, “Come with me, I need you to cover for me!”
“Okay!”
Xia Hao immediately called over Wang Fugui and a group of subordinates, telling them Ye Fan needed to go out to buy something and instructing everyone to pay extra attention to Su Yixue’s condition.
“Find out where Eldest Young Master Wang is right now!” Upon leaving the hospital, Ye Fan immediately gave an order to Xia Hao.
Locating someone’s position wasn’t a difficult task.
…
Inside the Emperor KTV of Cloud City, Eldest Young Master Wang, Wang Chao, was hugging two beauties, his hands restlessly moving about.
Suddenly, he received a report from his subordinate, “Young Master Wang, something’s wrong! Old Wolf Wu took action to assassinate Su Yixue and failed. Li Hu acted, and all of Old Wolf Wu’s men were annihilated. It’s said that Old Wolf Wu died on the spot!”
“What? Old Wolf Wu is dead? Idiots! So many people took action and yet couldn’t deal with one woman, fools…” Wang Chao irritably kicked away the two beauties at his side, “Scram!”
After the women had left, a ruthless gleam flashed in Wang Chao’s eyes, “Manager Liu from Provincial City has given instructions, we must take down Su Corporation at all costs, we need to kill the chicken to scare the monkey! Since Old Wolf Wu has failed, we’ll have to use another method.”
“Hmph! I refuse to believe that Su Yixue’s luck is always that good!”
“Young Master Wang, there’s another situation! According to feedback from our brothers on the scene, Ye Fan’s strength seems…” While talking, he passed a tablet to Wang Chao, the screen showing footage of Ye Fan saving Su Yixue and crushing Old Wolf Wu to death…
Wang Chao took one look and his expression chilled, “That idiot, his kung fu is still intact? What a pity, he’s just a fool!”
