Ye Xiao immediately said, "Group Leader Ouyang, can you not speak to me using official language? I really don't like it!"

Ouyang Hua was slightly taken aback and sighed. His subordinate was indeed not easy to manage, and besides, Ye Xiao was no ordinary team member!

Ouyang Hua said, "So you've wiped out the entire Mountain Wolf Group in Minghai City, huh?"

Ye Xiao said, "Group Leader Ouyang, your information network is really impressive, yes, I've completely wiped them out. What about it? Isn't this the result you wanted most?"

"Wiping out those bastards is indeed not a bad thing, but Songzhu Jianyi also died!" Ouyang Hua sighed and said, "His public identity was as the boss of the Songzhu Group, which has always abided by the laws of the country during the day."

"Abided by the laws of the country?" Ye Xiao couldn't help but laugh and said, "Abided by what kind of laws? Eliminating the Mountain Wolf Group was your idea!"

"I know, but now it's kind of tricky. Beihai Country is demanding an explanation from us, saying that a businessman from their legitimate enterprise has disappeared in Yan Country and they want a reasonable explanation!"

"What a twist of truth!" Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "What do you suggest?"

"The country now needs someone to take the blame for murder and be executed," Ouyang Hua stated!

Upon hearing this from Ouyang Hua, Ye Xiao immediately frowned and said, "Are you suggesting that I should come forward?"

If Ouyang Hua really thought so, Ye Xiao might lose his temper. If it were just to protect Ling Shuya, there was absolutely no need for Ye Xiao to eliminate the Mountain Wolf Group. After all, the biggest reason was that the Mountain Wolf Group posed a threat to Yan Country. But now, was Ouyang Hua trying to sacrifice a pawn after its use?

"Of course not, you were recruited by me into the Flame Dragon Team. Besides, the affairs in Minghai City were also directed by me, so don't overthink it!" Ouyang Hua seemed worried Ye Xiao might misunderstand, and he quickly explained.

Ye Xiao also knew that Ouyang Hua probably didn't mean to hand him over. After all, his ability wasn't weak. If one had to execute a martial artist of Late-stage Xuan Rank over so-called diplomatic issues, that would mean killing off so many people.

Ye Xiao said, "So what do you mean?"

"Find someone else, have the state execute him, and then the country can also give an explanation in the diplomatic arena to these bastards," said Ouyang Hua.

Hearing Ouyang Hua's words, Ye Xiao immediately gave a wry smile and said, "That might not be easy. Who would be willing to be dragged out and executed?"

"This is something someone has to take responsibility for, but it definitely cannot be you!" Ouyang Hua stated very firmly!

Ye Xiao was no fool. A matter that Ouyang Hua took so seriously couldn't be taken lightly!

Ye Xiao thought for a moment and said, "I can't give you an immediate response. I need some time!"

Ouyang Hua said, "Give me an answer within three days."

"No problem!"

Ouyang Hua immediately said, "Alright, there's nothing else then. Oh, by the way, you've moved pretty fast in Minghai City, huh? That Heavenly Gate Security Company is yours, right?"

Ye Xiao said, "That belongs to the state."

Hearing this, Ouyang Hua immediately became puzzled and said, "How so?"

Ye Xiao chuckled softly and said, "They take orders from me, and don't I take orders from the state?"

"Ha ha, good, having a heart to serve the country is very good!" Ouyang Hua said, "Ye Xiao, I think highly of you. Now that Minghai City has basically stabilized, have you ever thought about going abroad?"

"Go abroad?" Ye Xiao said, "You should know, I have tasks in Minghai City!"

"Ha ha, that kind of bodyguard stuff, your Heavenly Gate Security Company can handle that for you. Our country is vast, and so, we have pests in this city and in that city too!" Ouyang Hua said with a smile to Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao stepped out of the car, stretched a bit, and chuckled, "You're not planning to still have me clean up some national enemies for you, are you? Haven't I already cleaned up the Mountain Wolf Group in Minghai City for you?"

"That's not 'for me'; it's clearing obstacles for the country. I hope you can go to Bird City," Ouyang Hua said. "That is an even more bustling city than Minghai City, and of course, there are more beauties there too!" Ouyang Hua seemed to intentionally add the last sentence!

"Group Leader Ouyang, you might have some misconceptions about my character. I am one who resists temptations, so beauties hardly attract me!" Ye Xiao replied seriously.

"You think you can fool me? Do you really believe I'm unaware of your ambiguous relationships with girls from the Ling family and the Zhou family? And it's not just that, there's also..." Ouyang Hua knew all too well about Ye Xiao's private life and seemed eager to list every detail!

Ye Xiao immediately interrupted Ouyang Hua, asking, "How do you know so much?"

"Of course I know, did you think the Flame Dragon Team is vegetarian?" Ouyang Hua said proudly.

"But, I can't go to Bird City right now. Besides, I need to find Ling Hengyu for something important. Until I figure everything out, I won't leave Minghai City!" Ye Xiao said earnestly.

"Oh?" Although Ouyang Hua did not ask what it was about, from the tone of Ye Xiao's voice, he could tell it must have been something significant. He said casually, "Well, if you get the chance, you should visit Bird City. Besides, you barely used the ID card I gave you, which is commendable. I'll make sure to praise you at the Flame Dragon Team headquarters. You're definitely getting an internal commendation by the end of the year."

"Anything else?" Ye Xiao, feeling these words were trifling, now just wanted to find some food, drive to Han City, and then catch a plane back to Minghai City. He didn't want to waste any more words with Ouyang Hua.

Seemingly sensing Ye Xiao's impatience, Ouyang Hua chuckled and said, "Alright, alright, I won't take up any more of your time. Still, I must say, I'm very pleased with your performance in Minghai City!"

Ye Xiao didn't even listen to the last part of the sentence and hung up the phone immediately.

Since when had Ouyang Hua become so nagging, no wonder he was only in charge of a small group!

After putting away the phone, Ye Xiao stretched again and quickly jumped into his car, speeding away from Zhu City.

Driving non-stop to Han City, Ye Xiao didn't bother to freshen up and went straight into the airport!

Keep in mind, Ye Xiao was quite dirty at the moment, and sweating from the brawls had left him with a faint odor. So, when he entered the airport, it drew quite a few sidelong glances!

However, Ye Xiao didn't mind these odd stares; after all, it wasn't the first time he had been looked at this way!

The staff at Han City Airport, surprised to see Ye Xiao approach to handle his procedure, could smell a faint unusual scent as he got closer, which made them quite uncomfortable. However, they were in the service industry, and anyone entering the airport was their concern.

These days, high-quality service was a trend, so even though they felt like kicking Ye Xiao out, they didn't dare to actually do it!

"What service do you need?" a patient staff member asked.

But Ye Xiao could see dislike in this woman's eyes, pure dislike!

Yet, Ye Xiao really had no interest in this staff member, and absolutely none, so he took his documents from his clothes and handed them over, saying, "Please, book me a ticket to Minghai City in Chu City."

"The flight to Minghai City in Chu City tonight at 20:00, economy class, is 1500 yuan," the female staff member said.

But Ye Xiao shook his head, stating, "I don't want to sit in economy class. Are there any other seats available?"

Misunderstanding Ye Xiao's statement, thinking he was concerned about the high price, the staff member glanced at him indifferently and said, "Sorry, this is the cheapest available, there are no cheaper options."

Ye Xiao knew the staff member would think he found it too expensive, but that didn't bother him. He smiled at the woman and insisted, "I was asking about other seating classes."

The female staff member instantly liked Ye Xiao even less, thinking him pretentious and troublesome.

"There are, three first-class seats left!" she said, intending to embarrass him.

Her intention was simple, to make Ye Xiao feel awkward. However, Ye Xiao's response completely surprised her.

"Alright then, I'll take first class," Ye Xiao replied.

"First class?" the female staff member was taken aback, unable to hide her surprise, "First class is twice the price of economy—are you sure you want first class?"

The staff member thought Ye Xiao didn't understand what first-class meant. After all, people who fly first class are typically well-off, and here was Ye Xiao, wearing knock-off brand clothes that were slightly smelly and dirty, which could easily lead to misunderstandings!

With a slight smile hearing her doubts, Ye Xiao pointed to the computer in front of the staff member and asserted, "I want first class!"

The staff member was stunned by Ye Xiao's insistence. This man, looking like he just came from a dump, insisted on first class—could he be a down-on-his-luck tycoon? Yet, his lean figure didn't fit the image of a chubby, wealthy magnate at all.

"Please... please wait a moment!" said the staff member.

At that moment, a light voice came from behind Ye Xiao.
