Blood Blade was a special entity within Heavenly Gate Security Company, and even Zhao Dapeng did not have the authority to mobilize it at will.
Yet within Blood Blade, there was an even more special entity, Huo Feng.
It wasn't that there were no women in Blood Blade, however, no woman could enjoy the treatment that Huo Feng received.
In a private room on the second floor of the Blue-tailed Fox Bar.
Huo Feng was sitting cross-legged on the ground, eyes tightly closed, and at that moment, her surroundings were filled with a faint True Qi.
Ever since she had used the Source Life Liquid, Huo Feng had trained even more assiduously—it was almost a day and night cultivation session, and the Source Life Liquid, like multi-fold experience points in a game, made her training more grueling, helping her gain more in return.
At that time, Huo Feng's strength had already neared the Yellow Rank Late Stage.
Suddenly, her phone rang.
While she was cultivating rapidly, Huo Feng slightly frowned, then relaxed and slowly opened her eyes. She looked toward the phone placed not far from her, stood up, and picked it up.
When Huo Feng saw the name displayed on her phone, she immediately straightened her expression and hurriedly answered, saying in a flat tone, "Brother Xiao."
Ye Xiao's voice immediately came from the phone.
"How's your cultivation going?" Ye Xiao asked with a smile.
Huo Feng responded, "Thanks to Brother Xiao's Source Life Liquid, the training effect these past few days has been equivalent to a month or two of cultivation."
Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "It seems you have been training day and night, but you should rest when it's time to rest."
Huo Feng was not pleased with Ye Xiao's caring words and her emotions did not fluctuate. She said, "Brother Xiao, if you are calling me, there must be something you need."
Hearing Huo Feng's words, Ye Xiao laughed again and said, "Indeed, there is something, but it's not my concern, it's yours."
Upon hearing this, Huo Feng was very puzzled because she did not understand what Ye Xiao meant by 'not my concern, but yours'.
"Brother Xiao, I don't understand, please speak plainly," Huo Feng said coldly.
Originally, Ye Xiao had thought about teasing Huo Feng a bit, but she was always so cold.
"Do you want to take Chen Ming down yourself!" Ye Xiao said to Huo Feng.
Huo Feng's eyes lit up upon hearing this and she said to Ye Xiao, "Brother Xiao, can I do it now?"
"Although you don't have any martial arts technique now, with your profound Inner Strength, I think taking down Chen Ming shouldn't be a problem," Ye Xiao said. "However, I need you to take down another person as well when you do it—his name is Han Fei!"
"Yes, Brother Xiao, where is he now?" Huo Feng asked, she couldn't wait to kill Chen Ming.
Ye Xiao smiled slightly and told Huo Feng, "Go to Third Academy now, I'll head there as well, and I'll make it as easy as possible for you to take them down."
"Alright, Brother Xiao, I'll go right away," Huo Feng immediately replied.
Before Ye Xiao could speak again, Huo Feng had already hung up the phone.
Ye Xiao couldn't help but smile wryly; why was Huo Feng always so impetuous? It seemed she was indeed anxious to kill.
Ye Xiao then promptly left Hengyuan Department Store and took a taxi to Third Academy.
The distance between Third Academy and Hengyuan Department Store was relatively far.
During the ride, Ye Xiao called Chen Ming.
Chen Ming, although in class, picked up Ye Xiao's call and quickly ran out.
Chen Ming naturally saw Ye Xiao as the most hateful person, and he would curse whenever he thought of Ye Xiao. But what kind of person was Ye Xiao? He didn't dare to offend him at all.
"Brother Xiao, is there something you need?" Chen Ming asked cautiously.
Ye Xiao said, "There's a bit of business, can you find a secluded place at your school? I need to talk to you and Han Fei about something."
"Me and Han Fei? Brother Xiao, what business?" Chen Ming asked, puzzled.
"Let's talk when we meet," Ye Xiao said.
Chen Ming didn't dare say much else, he could only nod in agreement and said that he and Han Fei would be waiting at the entrance of Third Academy.
It didn't take long for Ye Xiao to arrive at Third Academy.
At the time, it was only around three or four o'clock, so classes were still in session at Third Academy. Oh no, when Ye Xiao arrived, the bell for class dismissal had just rung.
Ye Xiao got out of the car, and Chen Ming and Han Fei immediately came over.
"Brother Xiao!" Chen Ming hurriedly greeted Ye Xiao, but Han Fei didn't say a word, just standing by Chen Ming's side.
Ye Xiao glanced at Chen Ming and then at Han Fei, saying, "Let's find a quiet place."
"There's no need to go anywhere. We can talk here," Han Fei coolly replied.
Han Fei harbored no good feelings towards Ye Xiao. His father was about to be cleared, but for some unknown reason, a major incriminating evidence from three years ago surfaced again. Han Fei was convinced that this had something to do with Ye Xiao and was thinking about how to take revenge.
"We can't!" Ye Xiao looked at Han Fei and said, "There's something I want to ask you guys, and it's too crowded here."
"Alright, Brother Xiao, let's go inside the school then. There are a few unused lecture buildings there; we can talk there," Chen Ming suggested to Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao nodded and said, "Let's go there then."
So, Ye Xiao, Chen Ming, and Han Fei walked together into the Third Academy.
At that time, there were quite a few people around the campus since classes had just ended, so their presence didn't attract much attention.
It didn't take them long to reach those unused lecture buildings.
Ye Xiao looked towards the back of these buildings, noticing an extensive barren area that seemed to have been a sports ground before, but it was no longer in use.
"This area behind isn't small, huh?" Ye Xiao commented while observing the wasteland behind the buildings.
Chen Ming hurriedly explained, "The Third Academy was famous for a while back then, but after several brawls and a few deaths, it declined. Brother Xiao, you said you wanted to ask us something—what is it exactly?"
Ye Xiao responded with a smile, "Yes, indeed, there's something, and it's regarding Qin Yulu."
"Qin Yulu?" Chen Ming said, slightly puzzled. "I haven't seen Qin Yulu for days now, and we... we don't really dare to…"
Chen Ming didn't finish his sentence, but his implication was clear.
Ye Xiao said, "No? Hehe, you guys should be familiar with Zhang Zilong, right?"
Upon hearing the name 'Zhang Zilong,' Chen Ming and Han Fei momentarily froze, exchanging looks of fear, then quickly said, "No... don't know him!"
"Oh, you don't know him. How about Li Dachong?" Ye Xiao's gaze pierced the two like sharp rays of light.
Chen Ming and Han Fei were even more shocked, their hearts pounding wildly. They could have feigned ignorance with Zhang Zilong's name, but when Ye Xiao mentioned 'Li Dachong,' their breathing became ragged.
Ye Xiao, observing their extremely nervous expressions, chuckled softly. "Shall I continue?"
"Brother Xiao, what are you talking about? We... we don't understand," Han Fei said, no longer icy as he forced a smile, looking at Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao replied, "Don't understand? Really don't understand? You might not know my character yet—with friends, I share glory; but with enemies, hehe, nothing but shattered, broken, bodies!"
Ye Xiao's words struck deep into their hearts, especially the last four words "shattered, broken, bodies," which made the two tremble, their faces pale and legs weak.
"Brother Xiao, we admit our mistake!" Chen Ming actually knelt down before Ye Xiao, his expression truly pitiful.
However, Ye Xiao well knew that those deserving of pity often have detestable sides.
And these two in front of him had very substantial detestable sides.
"If you don't act wrong, you won't end up dead!" Ye Xiao smiled softly and continued, "However, I never said I'd kill you, so there's no need to be so afraid. Look, Han Fei is still standing tall like a man."
"Brother Xiao, give us a way to live!" Han Fei pleaded, while his hand surreptitiously moved towards his lower back.
Ye Xiao saw Han Fei's movement clearly but didn't expose it. Instead, he chuckled, "What if I don't?"
"Then... die!" As Han Fei finished speaking, he drew a black pistol from his lower back.
Ye Xiao merely glanced and saw the real gun.
The dark muzzle was aimed at Ye Xiao's head, clearly signaling that if Ye Xiao dared to refuse, he would shoot.
Ye Xiao, staring at the pistol in Han Fei's hand, laughed and said, "You should know the principle of playing with fire and getting burned."
"Enough talk. I'm going to kill you right now. Do you believe me?" Han Fei's expression was ferocious, believing firmly in the saying that no matter how skilled in martial arts, a bullet could still bring someone down.
But then...
Bang!
The harsh sound of a gun instantly rang out. Han Fei thought Ye Xiao was done for, but to his shock, Ye Xiao had vanished from the front.
Where was he?
Han Fei felt bewildered, looking around in disbelief, wondering if he had somehow blown Ye Xiao away with that shot. Could the gun have that much power?
But at that moment, someone tapped Han Fei's head. Han Fei immediately turned to see who had tapped him.
Who but Ye Xiao could it be?
"Ah?" Han Fei was taken aback and tried to aim his pistol at Ye Xiao again, but he no longer had the chance.
Ye Xiao's fingers moved lightning-fast to jam the trigger of Han Fei's gun, rendering it immovable.
