Dongning Building!

"He Huawei is obedient this time." Fang Jing and Xia Mingyue walked out while laughing.

"Yes, with the help of Yang Liufei and the others, the company's crisis has basically been resolved."

Fang Jing smiled lightly and said, "To say, this Ye Xiao is really quite wicked, using threats to achieve his goals. It's certain that He Huawei is not happy with it."

"Not only He Huawei won't be happy, but I fear He Yougen would be even more unhappy. After all, He Huawei is the heir of the He Group and was humiliated by Ye Xiao. There's no way he'll just let it go." Xia Mingyue smiled wryly and said, "But it's okay. I believe Ye Xiao can handle it."

Speaking of Ye Xiao, both Xia Mingyue and Fang Jing couldn't help but feel a bit gloomy.

After all, now they don't know where Ye Xiao is. When he left, he was very serious, a seriousness that almost neither of them had ever seen, so there must be a very big issue.

It's already the fourth day now.

But Ye Xiao seems to have disappeared, no phone calls, no contact information at all.

Although Xia Mingyue and Fang Jing both know that Ye Xiao is extraordinarily powerful, to say they're not worried would be a lie. After all, there are always stronger people out there, and in the realm of martial arts, it's hard to say who's number one.

"I wonder where Ye Xiao is now." Fang Jing sighed.

Xia Mingyue looked at Fang Jing, then also sighed. She took out her car keys from her bag, unlocked the car remotely, and got in directly.

"This is much better than that Mercedes." Fang Jing said to Xia Mingyue with a smile.

Xia Mingyue said, "That Mercedes, I really can't get used to it. I prefer the BMW X6."

At this moment, the car Xia Mingyue was driving was a white BMW X6. If you didn't look carefully, you might think it was the BMW X6 that was blown up earlier. In fact, this was the car Xia Mingyue just picked up yesterday.

The Xia family is a very wealthy family. Xia Nanhai's control over the funds is unknown to Xia Mingyue, and she doesn't want to know, but one thing is certain, those rich people on the so-called wealth rankings online are definitely no match for the Xia family.

In this world, there are wealthy people known as hidden wealth, and the Xia family should count as one.

So, for Xia Mingyue, the princess of the Xia family, changing a Maserati every day is no big deal, but Xia Mingyue doesn't like to do that, showing off wealth is not her style.

However, casually changing a BMW is still very casual.

Obviously, in the circle of super-rich people, this BMW X6 really doesn't make much of a statement.

After the BMW X6 started, it quickly left Dongning Building.

At this moment, the two girls didn't notice that there was a man standing nearby Dongning Building. The man was thin, with a joyous smile on his face, and his bright eyes watched the BMW X6 speeding off.

This person was none other than Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao originally planned not to see the two of them today, but he ended up, uncontrollably, coming to Dongning Building, at least to see if these two were safe.

At this moment, a red Ferrari tailed after them.

Ye Xiao just took a glance and secretly laughed.

"Why am I becoming more and more cautious?" Ye Xiao smiled bitterly. After all, previously, he instructed Wang Luoxin and all members of the Seven-colored Lamp to protect Xia Mingyue and Fang Jing. Now it seems, the protection is indeed well done.

After confirming that the two were fine, Ye Xiao turned and disappeared into the night.

Although Jinling District is not the most prosperous area in Bird City, it is still an area with very active nightlife. As night falls on Jinling District, the flow of people becomes even more intense.

However, none of these things mattered to Ye Xiao now.

The Liu family, located between Linhu District and Xinbei District, in the outskirts.

Around eight o'clock, by this time, the vicinity of the Liu family was already quiet. In the vicinity, there is an unwritten rule that no one would wander near the Liu family manor at night because people claimed to have seen ghosts here.

Of course, these are all deceptive stories, tricks by the Liu family to obviously reduce exposure.

After all, a martial arts family likes to keep a low profile.

Near the quiet Liu family manor, a shadow like an agile wildcat flickered with great speed.

Around each martial arts family's estate, there are quite a few guards whose duties are to block capable individuals from intruding into the manor. If they encounter experts, guards generally are prepared to fight to the death. If an enemy enters the manor, these guards would face severe punishment, and this is something at least Ye Xiao knows.

Because when Ye Xiao reached the Liu family manor wall, he already dealt with five Liu family guards. These guards were quite skilled, but compared to Ye Xiao, they fell short.

Since he learned that the Azure Dragon Tripod is at the Liu family, Ye Xiao naturally couldn't afford to delay. After all, if such an artifact were taken by someone else, Ye Xiao would be left with nothing but regret.

Sometimes, regret truly serves no purpose.

According to Liu Wenzhuo, the Azure Dragon Tripod is presently used as the incense burner in the Liu Clan Ancestral Hall. Clearly, this is a disguise.

The location of the Liu Clan Ancestral Hall is behind the Liu family's estate.

Although it was nighttime, martial arts enhanced Ye Xiao's senses. Ye Xiao's eyes could see everything in the dark that an ordinary person couldn't.

Ye Xiao's journey was rather smooth; it wasn't long before he arrived at the Liu Clan Ancestral Hall mentioned by Liu Wenzhuo. To Ye Xiao's dismay, the hall was lit, indicating there were people inside. As he approached, he even heard faint sobbing.

Someone was crying?

Ye Xiao found it curious, who would be crying here? Could it be someone from the Liu family?

Nonetheless, Ye Xiao believed he had to take the Azure Dragon Tripod today, regardless of who it was. Thus, he leapt from the roof and stealthily approached the hall.

However, when he was within four or five meters of the hall, suddenly, a sharp object flew quickly towards him. Ye Xiao dared not move forward, swiftly dodging to avoid the incoming projectile.

Upon closer inspection, Ye Xiao realized it was a crossbow arrow.

Ye Xiao muttered in anxiety and immediately looked back. At that moment, he saw a gleaming weapon stabbing in his direction, prompting him to quickly retreat. The person wielding the weapon was also advancing rapidly.

Only then did Ye Xiao see clearly; there were two people attacking him—one on the roof with a crossbow and the other advancing with a long sword.

Ye Xiao remembered Liu Wenzhuo mentioning that there were two Guardians in the Liu Clan Ancestral Hall. Their strength was approximately at the Mid-stage Xuan Rank, but if they attacked together, their power was not to be underestimated.

Ye Xiao retreated several steps, almost colliding with the wall, then suddenly leapt. The swordsman missed, but just then, another crossbow arrow accurately shot towards him.

Being mid-air, Ye Xiao found dodging rather inconvenient.

The speed of the crossbow arrow was too fast, offering Ye Xiao no chance to evade.

Clearly, these two were intent on taking his life.

Ye Xiao secretly smiled, with a hint of helplessness.

Suddenly, one of Ye Xiao's hands transformed into a dragon claw, and with a dragon's roar, the claw fiercely struck the crossbow arrow.

Immediately, the steel crossbow arrow was snapped into two by the dragon claw.

The man with the crossbow was shocked, clearly having not anticipated Ye Xiao's immense strength.

Ye Xiao jumped to the center of the two, returning his dragon claw to its normal state.

"Who are you!" The swordsman didn't immediately continue his attack.

Martial Artists generally have self-awareness. When encountering a powerful Martial Artist, it's best not to fight impulsively as losing one's cultivation is not ideal.

Ye Xiao smiled slightly, looking at the swordsman: "I'm a friend of your Family Head. I'm here to retrieve something for him."

"Something?" The swordsman said coldly: "The Family Head is in the clan. How could he let an outsider retrieve something? This is the Liu Clan Ancestral Hall, so please leave immediately. Otherwise, when Liu Wenzhuo the Clan Leader arrives, you won't be able to leave."

"Liu Wenzhuo?" Ye Xiao chuckled upon hearing the swordsman's words: "Then tell me, where is Liu Wenzhuo now?"

"What do you mean?"

"There's been an internal change in the Liu family, perhaps you aren't aware?" Ye Xiao thought these two had good potential, given their strength. If he could persuade them to join him, that would be ideal. Of course, as long as they're not loyal to Liu Shixun, that's the best outcome. He then laughed: "Liu Wenzhuo was driven out by Liu Shixun. In other words, Liu Shixun ascended the throne."

"Impossible!"

Ye Xiao smiled and said: "Whether it's possible or not, I don't need to explain to you. However, I'm here to retrieve something today. For the sake of Liu Wenzhuo, let's remain harmonious."

After saying that, Ye Xiao walked directly towards the hall.

Yet, how could the two allow Ye Xiao entry based just on a few words?

As he said, this was the Liu Clan Ancestral Hall, a sacred place in the eyes of the Liu family.

The two Liu family Martial Artists guarding the hall promptly launched another attack on Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao didn't intend to engage in a prolonged battle with them. Indeed, if the duel lasted too long, Liu Shixun might discover what was happening. If Liu Shixun came, although Ye Xiao in Mad God State might be able to fight him, what if he couldn't win? Wouldn't that mean his defeat?
