"Oh!" When Ye Xiao heard Song Jiamin's words, he simply uttered an "Oh" and then fell silent.

Song Jiamin found it strange that Ye Xiao had only said one word, and immediately asked him, "What do you mean by that? Is this matter related to you or not?"

"Do you hope it's related to me or not?" Ye Xiao said cheerfully.

Song Jiamin was at a loss for words upon hearing Ye Xiao's question. If she were to answer, she genuinely wouldn't know how to respond, as she naturally did not want Ye Xiao to be involved in such matters.

"You... never mind what I think, just tell me whether you're involved or not!" Song Jiamin demanded, looking at Ye Xiao.

"What if I am involved?" Ye Xiao asked.

"If you are, then I'll arrest you!" Song Jiamin said somewhat rudely.

Ye Xiao laughed and responded, "Alright then, I'm involved. Come arrest me. It's like a lifetime apart if I don't see you for just one day. If I get locked up again, I should be able to see you every day."

Ye Xiao's words left Song Jiamin not knowing what to say, and she immediately retorted angrily, "What... what are you saying? Are you really not involved? I want the truth!"

Ye Xiao chuckled and replied, "It's unrelated!"

"That's good then. Because of last night's incident, Chen Maozhong personally visited the Guard Bureau and severely reprimanded Yang Ming. Although my father wanted to defend him, he found himself speechless. If this isn't related to you, that's good. If it were, Chen Maozhong definitely wouldn't let you off, as Chen Maozhong is a very petty man. Moreover, it's not just Chen Maozhong; Han Zhimin's wife's family is from Bird City, and it seems they have quite the strong influence there," Song Jiamin warned Ye Xiao.

"Strong influence? Heh, ok, I understand. But this has nothing to do with me. Let Chen Maozhong investigate if he wants. After all, the pain of losing a son is enough to make him lose his nature!" Ye Xiao said.

"I won't speak anymore since this matter doesn't concern you. I have to go; the police work these days is just too much," Song Jiamin sighed.

But Ye Xiao immediately said, "Wait a second!"

"What's the matter?" Song Jiamin asked curiously.

Ye Xiao queried, "What if, I mean if, Chen Ming and Han Fei were both killed by me? What would you do then? Would you really arrest me?"

Upon hearing Ye Xiao touch on this most extreme and sensitive issue, Song Jiamin fell silent.

When Song Jiamin had first joined the Guard Bureau as a police officer, she told her father that she must be a law-abiding good cop.

She had never thought that she would bend the law for a man.

Song Jiamin had not ruled out the possibility of marrying a man in the future, but her sole principle was that it must be a man of integrity, who strictly abides by the law.

But Ye Xiao and the words 'integrity, law-abiding' were not remotely related.

In fact, Ye Xiao had not had a single day of genuinely abiding by the law.

In the past, given Song Jiamin's way of working, if asked this question by Ye Xiao, she would definitely have said she would make the arrest.

However, now Song Jiamin was unable to say a word because she truly did not know what to say. Deep down, she subconsciously did not want to arrest Ye Xiao, but as a police officer, and currently the head of the Criminal Police Team, her position required her to draw a clear line with someone as unscrupulous as Ye Xiao.

Yet, the human heart is made of flesh, and Song Jiamin really couldn't bear to sever ties with Ye Xiao!

"I'm a bit busy, I have to go!" Song Jiamin's voice was soft, almost buzzing.

Ye Xiao, hearing the phone hang up, had a deep smile on his face.

The question he had asked was indeed very tough to answer. If Song Jiamin had answered that she wouldn't make the arrest, then Ye Xiao would really start to doubt her principles. Of course, Ye Xiao did not want to hear Song Jiamin say that she would arrest him.

Now that Song Jiamin had not answered, she had, in fact, given Ye Xiao her answer.

Song Jiamin was now caught in a dilemma, and this was precisely because her heart now harbored a person named Ye Xiao.

However, Ye Xiao did not tell Song Jiamin the truth today, not because he wanted to hide something from her but because he did not want to make things difficult for her.

If Song Jiamin knew that the deaths of Chen Ming and Han Fei were related to Ye Xiao, she would definitely hesitate, which would undoubtedly create many obstacles in her work. Making the woman he admired face such difficulties was something Ye Xiao was absolutely unwilling to see.

Putting down his phone, Ye Xiao immediately closed his eyes, and at almost the same time, the Nine Yang True Qi in his body, combined with the Mad God Skill, began to operate.

Because his eyes were closed, although Ye Xiao could sense some of the things around him, he couldn't see the changes in his own appearance; his hair slowly turned from black to red, until it was finally blood-red.

If someone were to walk in at this moment, they would probably be scared half to death!

However, at this time, the Nine Yang True Qi inside Ye Xiao also began to circulate rapidly.

The masculine Nine Yang True Qi and the chaotic Mad God Skill fused together, and Ye Xiao felt waves of powerful force emanating from all around his body.

That afternoon, Ye Xiao had originally planned to practice the Mad God Skill properly. However, in reality, that afternoon Ye Xiao received many phone calls. The first was from Li Cangjie, who said that the Axe Company was attacking the Black Dragon Company like mad and hoped that the Heavenly Gate Security Company could provide support.

Thinking about it, since Li Cangjie had already spoken up, it seemed somewhat improper not to support them, so Ye Xiao prepared to call Zhao Dapeng.

But before he could call Zhao Dapeng, Ye Xiao's phone rang; it was exactly Zhao Dapeng calling.

Ye Xiao was very surprised at the moment, wondering why Zhao Dapeng would call then, and immediately picked up.

As soon as the call connected, Zhao Dapeng said urgently to Ye Xiao, "Brother Xiao, it's bad, the Axe Company has gone mad."

"What do you mean?" Ye Xiao asked, quite puzzled hearing Zhao Dapeng's words.

Zhao Dapeng immediately said, "Brother Xiao, just twenty minutes ago, the Axe Company attacked territories of our Heavenly Gate Security Company. At first, we thought it was just normal friction, but now we've realized it's not that simple. For some reason, everyone from the Axe Company seems incredibly strong. One person is taking on several at once. In just twenty minutes, several of our territories have been snatched away by the Axe Company, and, according to reports from our brothers, it's the same with the Black Dragon Company."

One person taking on several?

Even ordinary people, when fighting, absolutely don't display such abilities—one against many. There could only be one reason.

Could it be that among the people of the Axe Company there were Martial Artists?

Although the incident last time at the Ling family villa had deterred many Martial Artists, after all, there were too many Martial Artists wandering around in Minghai City, but how could they possibly be working for a social company? That was something Ye Xiao couldn't understand.

Ye Xiao told Zhao Dapeng, "Don't panic, fight slowly, and I will inform Yang Ming to coordinate with the Heavenly Gate Security Company."

"Okay, Brother Xiao, but now the weather outside is bad, it's been raining continuously, the police deployment is low, it's bad, and if deployed in large numbers, it could potentially cause panic among the citizens!" Zhao Dapeng said.

Hearing Zhao Dapeng's words, Ye Xiao immediately looked out the window, only to see a gloomy sky. Although it was only three or four o'clock, the sky was very dark, and it was still continuously raining, not heavily, but incessantly.

With such weather, there wouldn't be many people on the streets, as it seemed like it could start pouring heavily at any moment.

Ye Xiao said, "Focus on defense, let Yang Ming handle it!"

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Zhao Dapeng responded, "Yes, Brother Xiao!"

After hanging up the phone, Ye Xiao felt very strange. If the Axe Company was making a fierce attack on the Black Dragon Company, that was still understandable, but now they were also attacking the Heavenly Gate Security Company together—what did this mean? Did they really think that with the power of the Axe Company, they could wage a two-front battle?

Looking at the overcast sky, a worrying thought suddenly flashed through Ye Xiao's mind, although it was fleeting.

Subsequently, Ye Xiao called Yang Ming. No matter why the Axe Company was attacking both the Heavenly Gate Security Company and the Black Dragon Company, it was essential to curb them now. The Heavenly Gate Security Company had not easy reached its current level and if it suddenly regressed back to its former state, wouldn't all their previous efforts have been in vain?

It wasn't long before Yang Ming's voice came through the phone.

"Brother Xiao!"

Ye Xiao first smiled, then said to Yang Ming, "Chen Maozhong made you feel wronged today."

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Yang Ming quickly said, "It can't be helped, after all, he's now the second-in-command, and his son has just been killed; it's inevitable that he's not in a good mood. Brother Xiao, did you call for something?"

"Do you know about the Axe Company's large-scale attack on various companies?" Ye Xiao asked.

Yang Ming immediately said, "I just heard about it. I was about to send police forces to see what was going on."

"Send in the special units directly and suppress them," Ye Xiao said.

"Special units?"Yang Ming, somewhat surprised by Ye Xiao's words, said, "Brother Xiao, is that necessary? They will probably run off as soon as they see the police."

"This time it might not be the case; it's better to use the special units," Ye Xiao said, "Not only deploy police forces in the territories of Heavenly Gate Security Company, but also provide support to the Black Dragon Company's territories, or maybe you and Sun Bin can team up to see if a crackdown can be organized."
