Ye Xiao felt a bit ashamed at this moment, truly because he hadn't even carefully looked at the old lady's face. If he had looked carefully, his mindset would surely have calmed down.

Ye Xiao was also an ordinary person. Although he had more experiences than the average person, after all, he was only nineteen years old. At this age, most people are still relying on their parents' salary cards, casually flirting with girls, and skipping classes.

If they are lucky, attend a university, that would be even more enjoyable.

Ye Xiao returned to the driver's seat, looked into the rearview mirror, and found that the old lady was bowing her head.

Ye Xiao quickly said, "Old lady, why don't we go to the hospital and have a look?"

"No need, I'm hale and hearty. Head to the highway entrance; my house is right there," the old lady said without lifting her head.

Ye Xiao was going to Bird University and wanted to get there quickly, which also required the highway, so it was on the way, he said, "Alright."

The Audi started once again, but this time, Ye Xiao didn't drive fast, keeping a steady speed. However, he didn't notice that a commercial van was also following the Audi.

Along the way, Ye Xiao didn't dare to speak and soon reached the highway entrance.

Ye Xiao then said to the old lady in the back, "Old lady, we've arrived."

The old lady said, "There's a small road if you go west. Just stop at the entrance of the small road. Although there's still quite a distance inside, I can walk myself."

Ye Xiao hurriedly said, "Old lady, let me take you a bit further."

"If you're willing, that would certainly be the best."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiao immediately drove the Audi into the small road. After entering, there was an endless wilderness on both sides. They were already at the very edge of Bird City, essentially the outer suburb of the entire Bird City.

Ye Xiao was driving the Audi, initially feeling nothing, but over time, he suddenly noticed something was wrong. Because after running on this small road for about two kilometers, they hadn't seen any villages; instead, they saw a river in the distance.

Not only that, Ye Xiao saw through the rearview mirror that a black commercial van was approaching from far behind.

Before, Ye Xiao had seen it but hadn't paid attention. Now, this van had also followed.

"Old lady!" Ye Xiao's smile froze, and he calmly said, "How much farther is it?"

"How far do you hope it is?" The old lady suddenly chuckled, and suddenly, she threw a black object to where Ye Xiao was sitting.

Ye Xiao was already mentally prepared at this moment, so when the black shadow flashed, he looked carefully and was surprised to find that it was a bomb, and a timed one at that, with clearly only 3 seconds left.

At the same time, the old lady shot out of the back door like a ghost.

That speed, let alone an old lady over fifty, even a lively young person probably couldn't have such speed, and after shooting out, the whole person was like an arrow leaving the bowstring, shooting away quickly.

Ye Xiao was also very sharp, opened the car door, and moved like a flash of lightning, appearing at a position about ten meters away from the Audi car in an instant.

It was also when Ye Xiao steadied himself, only to see the originally sleek and shiny Audi car make a thunderous 'boom,' exploding, engulfing the whole car in a mass of fire.

Martial Artists are indeed very powerful, but no matter how powerful, their bodies are still flesh and blood, and no matter what, they can't withstand the damage of a bomb.

Ye Xiao crouched down at this moment, his gaze fell on the business van, from which six or seven people quickly got out. Adding the previous old lady, there were eight people at this moment, looking at Ye Xiao.

Oh no, it can't be called an old lady. Ye Xiao realized at this moment that the old lady had been disguised all along, and after peeling off some materials from her face, she was a woman in her thirties.

At this moment, the woman's face bore a smug smile, looking at Ye Xiao and said, "Kid, you survived the explosion. It looks like you do have some skills."

Ye Xiao looked at these eight people, silently smiling bitterly to himself, he should have thought of it before.

If today, it was really an accident, that would be normal, an old lady almost being hit but acting as if it was nothing.

This simply doesn't conform to logic.

However, Ye Xiao hadn't thought so much just now, he was merely feeling guilty.

Ye Xiao, with a cold face, looked at the eight people who were walking towards him and said, "We've never met, why are you targeting me?"

"Because you're too annoying, and many people want your life, so you must die," the woman laughed heartily.

Ye Xiao looked at the woman, feeling even more displeased. It was this woman who had just betrayed his kind-hearted nature.

"Yes, many people want my life, but I don't know if you eight can really kill me," Ye Xiao said coldly as he looked at the eight in front of him.

"Humph, what an arrogant boy. Today I'll show you how you die." One of the men shouted, rushing directly towards Ye Xiao swiftly.

At the same time, the others also charged at Ye Xiao, all moving at extreme speeds.

Ye Xiao dared not be careless, yet he also did not flee.

Because Ye Xiao knew that running was useless.

"Die!" The man quickly rushed in front of Ye Xiao, throwing a punch directly at him.

Ye Xiao's hands immediately transformed into eagle claws, and he grabbed the man's wrist with a grappling technique. Initially, Ye Xiao intended to break the man's wrist directly.

However, just at that moment, two people soared in from the left and right, each attacking Ye Xiao's fatal points in the most tricky and vicious manner.

Ye Xiao had no choice but to leap backward in an attempt to retreat explosively.

Just as Ye Xiao leaped, two martial artists appeared in front of him. They jumped into the air, each leg infused with strong inner power true qi, kicking toward Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao gritted his teeth, summoning Nine Yang True Qi with both hands, countering a leg with his fist.

When Ye Xiao collided with the two, with a 'swoosh,' Ye Xiao was sent flying backward.

One round!

Ye Xiao retreated.

"Haha, and we still need to come together? This kid is nothing special." One of the eight martial artists laughed heartily and charged at Ye Xiao again.

The movement and attack speed of these eight people were swift, even Ye Xiao did not dare to be careless. Ye Xiao, possessing Wind Shadow Steps, didn't suffer in terms of speed, but these eight people attacked him in an elusive manner, forcing Ye Xiao to counter with the speed-focused Eagle Claw Skill.

Although he could manage for a short time, it was evident that the Eagle Claw Skill couldn't fully unleash the true power of Ye Xiao's Nine Yang Divine Skill.

'Boom'!

With an explosion, Ye Xiao was again sent flying backward, flipping before finally steadying himself.

"Blood Shura!" At this time, the woman laughed and said, "No big deal, it seems others have overestimated you."

His opponent knew he was Blood Shura.

Ye Xiao looked up at the woman as they were all approaching him.

Ye Xiao said, "You have to at least tell me who sent you. Even if it's unpleasant, I should know who wants my life."

"Haha, kid, weren't you just overly arrogant? What? Not so arrogant now? Didn't you say the eight of us couldn't kill you?" The woman laughed and said, "Want to know who sent us? Actually, telling you doesn't matter since you're going to die anyway."

"Eight Sister, why bother talking nonsense with him?" Then, a brutish-looking guy glanced at Ye Xiao, speaking to the woman.

The woman looked disdainfully at Ye Xiao, saying, "Do you really think he has any chance of recovery?"

"Indeed!"

Ye Xiao took a deep breath.

The woman looked at Ye Xiao with contempt and said, "I really don't understand how you killed Xiong Daoliang. Forget it; that's not important now. You want to know who sent us? Listen carefully, the ones who want you dead are the Eight Demons of the Plum Blossom Group, and the one who directed us here is Zhao Guangyi, ha, you should know that name, right?"

"Zhao Guangyi!" Ye Xiao murmured, then said, "I just gelded his grandson, didn't expect him to invest so much in revenge, haha, but this makes sense. If you didn't come here today, I would have hesitated to act against the Zhao family. Now you've given me ample reason, I have decided, I must kill Zhao Guangyi and overthrow the Zhao family."

When Ye Xiao uttered these words, everyone present felt that Ye Xiao might have lost his mind. Thinking about the future in such a situation—was he joking? Did Ye Xiao even have a future?

"Now that you know, someone must die here today." The woman sneered.

Ye Xiao lowered his head, smiled slightly, and said, "You're right, someone must die. You pretended to be an old woman to deceive me. Do you know who deserves to die?"

The woman felt some annoyance at Ye Xiao's inexplicable words and shouted angrily, "Kill him!"

Those six or seven men instantly rushed toward Ye Xiao.

The woman stood still, thinking she didn't even need to lift a finger to kill Ye Xiao.

But then...

Originally standing opposite the Eight Demons, Ye Xiao suddenly moved. Almost in a flash, he swept past one of the men.

The man then saw a strange sight; Ye Xiao's eyes were red.

The seven men immediately turned to look, but at that moment, they were amazed to discover that Eight Sister, who had been with them moments ago, was now lying motionless on the ground. And the Ye Xiao, whom they all thought could only defend against them, had bloodstains on his fingers. What was even more shocking, Ye Xiao was entirely different from a moment ago, with red eyes, red hair, and some inexplicable patterns on his face. But this was enough to startle those present.
