"Brother Ye, you're finally back! You've really made me wait!" Zhang Jincheng entered Zhao Dapeng's room and, upon seeing Ye Xiao sitting there, immediately walked over, his face filled with excitement as he looked at Ye Xiao!

Zhao Dapeng smiled and looked towards Zhang Jincheng, saying, "Mr. Zhang, I'm truly sorry."

Zhang Jincheng initially wanted to complain to Zhao Dapeng, but Ye Xiao simply smiled lightly and said, "Dapeng, being cautious in your actions is not a bad thing. I think Mr. Zhang won't mind such a trivial matter, so don't doubt Mr. Zhang's magnanimity!"

After saying this, Ye Xiao immediately looked towards Zhang Jincheng.

The complaint that had originally reached Zhang Jincheng's lips had to be forcibly swallowed.

"Brother Ye's words are quite right!" Zhang Jincheng quickly put on a magnanimous expression and said to Zhao Dapeng, "Boss Zhao, being cautious is very commendable, something Zhang here should learn from indeed. How could I possibly blame you?"

Ye Xiao pointed to a sofa nearby, smiling as he spoke to Zhang Jincheng, "Mr. Zhang, don't just stand there, have a seat."

Zhang Jincheng quickly sat down on a sofa next to Ye Xiao, looked at him, and said, "Brother Ye, when did you get back? Weren't you supposed to be in the Northern Territory?"

"It's nothing big; I suddenly thought in the Northern Territory that I had forgotten to exchange phone numbers with you, and also, I had forgotten to inform Boss Zhao about this, so, I came back."

Ye Xiao was certainly apt at lying, his face not turning red and his heart not skipping a beat as he spoke the blatant lie as if it were the most natural thing!

Zhang Jincheng was instantly flattered and quickly said to Ye Xiao, "Brother Ye, actually you could have just called, I think Boss Zhao would have certainly helped eagerly; there was no need to come back all this way."

Yet, Ye Xiao was very serious as he told Zhang Jincheng, "That's not right. How would it show my sincerity if I didn't come running back? Haha, Mr. Zhang must really want to discuss how we should proceed with our plans now."

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Zhang Jincheng chuckled and said, "If we could proceed as soon as possible, that would of course be best."

Ye Xiao looked toward Zhao Dapeng, who was sitting nearby, and said, "Dapeng, this matter is yours to handle. The first priority is to ensure Mr. Zhang's safety, and only then deal with matters concerning the Zhang Company."

Zhao Dapeng immediately nodded and said to Ye Xiao, "Yes, Brother Xiao!"

Seeing Ye Xiao treating him with such importance, Zhang Jincheng was moved.

"Brother Ye, you truly are like my own brother. Although we've only met a couple of times... ah, nevermind, I won't say more, empty formalities aside, Brother Ye, rest assured, whatever Zhang commits to, he will accomplish," Zhang Jincheng said earnestly as he looked at Ye Xiao!

Ye Xiao laughed heartily and said, "Mr. Zhang, oh no, Chairman Zhang, I wish you a happy collaboration with Dapeng and may you quickly bring the villains to justice."

"Of course!" Zhang Jincheng said very seriously!

Ye Xiao said, "I've got other matters, so I won't get involved in the details. Discuss well with Dapeng; I'll be leaving now!"

What Zhang Jincheng now needed was the dark power of the Heavenly Gate Security Company, so whether Ye Xiao was involved or not really didn't concern him. In fact, if Ye Xiao were involved, Zhang Jincheng might actually be displeased since he wanted to wield the powerful sword of the Heavenly Gate Security Company to deal with his enemies personally.

Stepping out of the Blue-tailed Fox Bar, the sun was already high in the sky. However, it being golden October, the sun wasn't as harsh, rather, its warmth felt quite pleasant as it shone on him!

Ye Xiao slowly looked up, gazing at the dazzling sunlight, and smiled faintly. What exactly is a superior being? Ancient emperors were superior beings, but what is a superior being now? Ye Xiao just smiled and didn't continue looking.

As he slowly walked toward Minghai Academy, his heart was turbulent. Nie Zhen had died, so his family must have died as well. Who could have done this? Obviously, since Wang Xianzhong belonged to someone, Nie Zhen must have been killed by that person—undoubtedly Xiong Daoliang!

It turned out that Xiong Daoliang, on the one day he wasn't in Minghai City, had taken control of the Axe Company and hadn't immediately taken control of the Black Dragon Company. Instead, he chose to fight for it, clearly showing some apprehension!

What exactly was he apprehensive about? Ye Xiao felt it shouldn't be him.

How strong Xiong Daoliang actually was, Ye Xiao didn't know. At least for now, he didn't think he was a match for Xiong Daoliang, but now he had the Mad God Skill in his hands. However, would practicing the Mad God Skill definitely make him a match for Xiong Daoliang?

This, Ye Xiao really wasn't sure of, as the power of the Mad God Skill was still only legendary.

"Let nature take its course!" Ye Xiao sighed and stopped thinking about it.

Upon entering Minghai Academy, Blood Blade members were on guard duty and immediately greeted him when they saw Ye Xiao!

"Brother Xiao!" The guards smiled as they greeted Ye Xiao!

Ye Xiao nodded, about to head inside when he heard one guard say, "Brother Xiao, a great beauty visited the school today."

"A beauty?" Hearing that, Ye Xiao's interest was immediately piqued, and he hurriedly asked, "Really? What kind of beauty? Is she exceptional?"

"Yes, very exceptional. It seems she is Miss Ling's cousin, who personally came out to meet her!" the guard said.

Ling Shuya's cousin?

Ye Xiao couldn't help but smile slightly. When did Ling Shuya suddenly have a cousin? More importantly, why hadn't he known about this? He hadn't heard Ling Shuya mention anything about it!

"Oh, I see!" Ye Xiao then proceeded into the school.

Nevertheless, how could Ye Xiao not be curious about Ling Shuya's cousin, especially since she was described as a great beauty?

It was coincidence that as Ye Xiao climbed the academic building, the class bell rang.

Ye Xiao quickened his pace, effectively taking two steps at a time, soon reaching the classroom where Class 1 was located. At that moment, students from various classes were pouring out, eager to relax as the class ended.

"Brother Xiao, you're back!" When Ye Xiao reached the classroom door, Weii Yang and Zhan Bo walked out and immediately said upon seeing him.

Ye Xiao replied, "Yeah, I'm back. I heard a great beauty visited; is that true?"

Zhan Bo immediately grinned and said, "Brother Xiao always has a knack for finding out about beauties. Indeed, a great beauty visited our class today to sit in on the classes. I heard she's Ling Shuya's cousin."

"Heh heh, since she's a beauty, I really should go say hello. Otherwise, it might seem like we don't know how to behave properly," Ye Xiao chuckled and walked straight into the classroom.

Zhan Bo and Weii Yang exchanged glances and smiled as they then discussed heading to the internet café to play League of Legends.
