"Uncle Liu, why are you injured? What are you doing here?" Jiang Miaoke looked at Liu Wenzhuo with a surprised expression.

Liu Wenzhuo was at a loss for words; he didn't know how to explain it to Jiang Miaoke.

At this moment, Ye Xiao looked at Jiang Miaoke with a smile and said, "Coco, have a seat first."

Jiang Miaoke nodded and then sat down.

Ye Xiao looked at Liu Wenzhuo and said with a smile, "How is it? Feeling better?"

Liu Wenzhuo said, "There are excellent healing medicines here, I'm feeling much better."

Ye Xiao said, "That's good, take care and heal well. Hopefully, you can return to where you belong soon."

Liu Wenzhuo certainly understood what Ye Xiao meant, nodded, and then looked at Fang Jing and Fang Chunzhi.

Fu Donglai looked at Ye Xiao and said with a smile, "Brother Xiao, Miss Fang and Aunt Fang surely have something to say. How about letting them go for a walk? There's a garden in this mansion."

Ye Xiao smiled at Fang Jing and said, "Jinger, what do you think?"

Fang Jing also knew that Ye Xiao and the others had matters to discuss, so she nodded and said, "Okay, um, Coco, let's go together."

Upon hearing Fang Jing's words, Jiang Miaoke, although curious about what Ye Xiao, Fu Donglai, and Liu Wenzhuo were going to discuss, stood up and said, "I won't disturb them here. I'll walk with you. By the way, Fu Donglai, I'm thirsty, and I don't want plain water."

Fu Donglai immediately said to Zhang Quan by his side, "Go and bring some fine fruits and snacks for Aunt Fang, Miss Fang, and Miss Jiang to taste."

"Yes, yes!"

Fang Chunzhi promptly said, "Mr. Fu, there's no need for such formality."

Fu Donglai quickly said, "Aunt Fang, please don't call me Mr. Fu, just call me Donglai."

"Let's go," Jiang Miaoke said.

Subsequently, the three women walked out of the main hall.

As soon as they left, Liu Wenzhuo immediately looked at Ye Xiao and said worriedly, "Ye Xiao, you weren't followed when you came over, were you?"

Ye Xiao immediately smiled and said, "Rest assured, we weren't."

At this moment, Fu Donglai looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Brother Xiao, I heard Liu Wenchao is dead, and now there's talk outside about Uncle Liu's disappearance. There won't be any problems, will there?"

"What problems could there be?" Ye Xiao said with a smile, "They shouldn't be able to quickly guess that the person is at your Fu family."

"That's true. In the past, the Fu and Liu families didn't have much interaction." Fu Donglai then added, "However, I believe there will definitely be more interaction in the future, of course, that is when Uncle Liu takes charge of the Liu family."

Liu Wenzhuo awkwardly said with a bitter smile, "Who knows how long that will be. Liu Shixun must be looking everywhere for my whereabouts, surely thinking that I killed Liu Wenchao."

"Indeed, your Liu family's surveillance capabilities are quite impressive. Just before arriving here, I had to take out a few people who were tailing us," Ye Xiao said with a smile.

"Ah? Could it be that they already know you killed him? You seemed to have killed everyone there yesterday," Liu Wenzhuo said with some surprise.

"Maybe they don't know yet, but with Fang Jing outside, it's indeed a bit dangerous," Ye Xiao said.

Liu Wenzhuo said, "How about this, let Fang Jing stay here and not go anywhere. This way, they won't find out about my whereabouts."

"Haha, should we just kill Fang Jing to settle it once and for all? This way, Liu Shixun wouldn't even dream of finding your whereabouts," Ye Xiao laughed lightly and said.

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Liu Wenzhuo immediately dared not speak.

Ye Xiao glanced at Liu Wenzhuo and said, "Don't forget, all this happened because of you. Should Fang Jing's freedom be restricted because of you? Fang Jing has already sacrificed a lot for you."

"I... I didn't mean anything else. It was also for her safety," Liu Wenzhuo, seeing that Ye Xiao was smiling yet clearly somewhat angry, quickly said.

Ye Xiao glanced at Liu Wenzhuo and then asked, "Liu Shixun's capabilities must be quite good too, right? What rank is he now? Does he have any special techniques?"

"Currently, he should be at the Earth Rank. As for what stage at the Earth Rank, I don't know, but I suppose it's not beyond the Middle Stage." Liu Wenzhuo replied truthfully, "He cultivates the Liu family's inherited Inner Strength. Oh, right, his special technique is the Liu family's inherited Dragon-Splitting Palm."

"Dragon-Splitting Palm?" Fu Donglai looked at Liu Wenzhuo and said, "Liu Shixun has already mastered the Dragon-Splitting Palm? It seems his skills are quite terrifying."

Liu Wenzhuo hurriedly said, "The Dragon-Splitting Palm is very profound, and only martial artists who've reached the Earth Rank can cultivate it. Furthermore, its cultivation is very slow, so although Liu Shixun has practiced the Dragon-Splitting Palm, it should only be at the rudimentary level."

"The Dragon-Splitting Palm can cleave even a dragon, so even at the rudimentary level, it's incredibly powerful." Fu Donglai said with a smile, "As the Clan Leader of the Liu family, Uncle Liu must know some weaknesses of the Dragon-Splitting Palm. Why not share those weaknesses with Brother Xiao, giving him more confidence if he encounters Liu Shixun?"

Liu Wenzhuo hesitated a bit upon hearing Fu Donglai's words.

Obviously, the Dragon-Splitting Palm is an exclusive secret of the Liu family, only direct descendants could cultivate it. Initially, Liu Wenzhuo did intend to cultivate the Dragon-Splitting Palm, but later an accident allowed Liu Shixun to discover it, who then forcibly took it away. Since then, the Dragon-Splitting Palm has been under Liu Shixun's control. However, every Cultivation Technique has its flaws. Although the Dragon-Splitting Palm is an Earth Rank Martial Arts, it also has its flaws, its weakness. However, Liu Wenzhuo truly didn't want to reveal the Dragon-Splitting Palm's weakness in public.

How could Ye Xiao not know Fu Donglai's intentions? To know oneself and to know the enemy, understanding the weakness of the Dragon-Splitting Palm would give him more chances of victory if he ever faced the Liu family as an enemy. Therefore, naturally, Fu Donglai's intentions were not for Ye Xiao but for himself.

Though Ye Xiao saw it clearly, he chose not to expose it, smiling he said, "Isn't it not time to fight yet? We can talk about it when the fight comes."

Liu Wenzhuo and Fu Donglai, being astute individuals, naturally understood Ye Xiao's implication.

Liu Wenzhuo immediately said, "Alright."

Of course, although Ye Xiao said this, he was still a bit curious about the Dragon-Splitting Palm, which could only be cultivated at the Earth Rank. He thought, if he ever had the chance, he would still consult Liu Wenzhuo about it.

The three of them chatted here for a while until those three women returned.

When Jiang Miaoke returned, her face was full of surprise. Evidently, she might have learned of something sufficiently shocking.

"Mr. Ye, I still have to thank you for taking care of Jing," Fang Chunzhi said gratefully to Ye Xiao upon entering.

Ye Xiao quickly said to Fang Chunzhi, "Aunt Fang, no need to be so courteous. Jing and I are friends, so it's only right to help out. Here, treat it as your own home. Donglai is also a very hospitable person, feel free to ask if you need anything."

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Fu Donglai quickly added, "Yes, Aunt Fang, if there is anything lacking in hospitality, feel free to point it out. I am the junior here, and naturally, I will heed what you say."

Fang Chunzhi, somewhat moved, said, "Thank you all, you are good people."

Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "Aunt Fang, we are not really good people, but sometimes, there is no difference between good and bad. After all, there is no inherent distinction between good and evil in people. It's getting late, we must leave now. I will bring Jing to see you often."

"Alright, anyway, I entrust Jing to you." Fang Chunzhi said to Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao smiled and said, "I might not be a good person, but respecting elders is something I barely manage to pass, so I certainly won't let anyone bully Jing."

"What about you then?" At this moment, Jiang Miaoke laughed and said, "Would you bully Sister Jing?"

Ye Xiao suddenly felt a bit awkward and quickly said with a smile, "How could I?"

"What wouldn't you dare to do?" Jiang Miaoke bluntly replied without giving Ye Xiao any face.

Ye Xiao awkwardly smiled.

However, everyone knew Jiang Miaoke was doing it on purpose, and everyone also understood that Ye Xiao wouldn't get angry at Jiang Miaoke.

"Mom, you and..." Fang Jing began, looking towards Liu Wenzhuo.

At the same time, Liu Wenzhuo was also looking at Fang Jing, obviously seeming to expect something.

However, Fang Jing turned her gaze onto Fang Chunzhi and said, "Take care of yourself. I'll visit you often with Ye Xiao."

"Alright, alright!" Fang Chunzhi nodded.

Afterward, Ye Xiao, Fang Jing, and Jiang Miaoke walked out of the main hall and got directly into the Porsche.

At this moment, Fang Jing had a somewhat sorrowful expression, her eyes red. Fu Donglai quickly said, "Miss Fang, rest assured, your parents will be very comfortable here."

Fang Jing didn't speak, obviously displeased by others referring to Liu Wenzhuo as her father.

The Porsche slowly drove away from the Fu Mansion.

Liu Wenzhuo and Fang Chunzhi watched the Porsche leave the Fu Mansion, unable to help feeling a bit lost. No matter how well they lived or ate in someone else's home, it was still someone else's home.

Besides, in the room inside the Porsche, no one looked back, but tears quietly streamed down.

Ye Xiao gestured to Jiang Miaoke.

Only then did Jiang Miaoke notice, quickly taking out a tissue for Fang Jing.

Jiang Miaoke said, "Sister Jing, first of all, rest assured, I won't tell anyone about your matters, not even my cousin. Secondly, there's no need to feel sad or upset. Believe in Ye Xiao; he will surely make all this turn out wonderfully."

Hearing Jiang Miaoke's words, Ye Xiao was truly pleased, smiling he said, "You actually have so much confidence in me."

"It's not about having confidence in you, but these things are what you should do. Did I say anything wrong?" Jiang Miaoke looked at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao heard Jiang Miaoke's words and forced a bitter smile, saying, "Alright, alright, you have a point."
