Chen Maocai and Zhao Guangyi, along with four others, spoke in the main hall for a while, and then Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Hong stood up to take their leave.

"As soon as there's news about Liuyue, I'll immediately inform Brother Zhao," Chen Maocai said to Zhao Guangyi, walking outside.

Zhao Guangyi said, "Thank you, Brother Chen. We need to handle this matter with caution."

The group walked out of the villa, and Zhao Guangyi quickly got into a commercial vehicle with Zhao Hong and left the Chen family estate.

"Father, this Zhao Guangyi is really being polite now, quite different from the times he used to show off his power," Chen Zeming said with a cold smile, watching the departing commercial vehicle, addressing Chen Maocai.

Chen Maocai said, "Zhao Guangyi has decent capabilities, but no matter how strong, it can't be compared to the Flame Dragon Team. No one can openly challenge the Flame Dragon Team, as that would be akin to challenging the nation, which is just asking for destruction. Zhao Guangyi is a smart man."

Chen Zeming added, "Indeed, Zhao Guangyi is clever, knowing that to take revenge, he must collaborate with our Chen family. However, Ye Xiao's methods are indeed ruthless, cutting off the Zhao family's line. As far as I know, although Zhao Guangyi has two sons, the responsibility of carrying on the family line was given to Zhao Sheng, because although Zhao Hong also has a son, the child is weak and frail, not to mention practicing martial arts; there's even a question if he can have heirs. Now that Zhao Pu, who was the Zhao family's hope, was cut off by Ye Xiao, no wonder Zhao Guangyi is eager to skin Ye Xiao alive."

Chen Maocai chuckled and said, "As long as Zhao Guangyi is alive, the Zhao family still remains dominant. If Zhao Guangyi dies one day, the Zhao family is finished."

Meanwhile, in a hidden spot in the Chen family estate, Ye Xiao carefully stood there, eyeing Chen Maocai and Chen Zeming, listening clearly to their conversation.

"What an unexpected gain!" Ye Xiao smirked inwardly. If he hadn't come to the Chen family, he might have been unaware that the Chen and Zhao families are currently in an alliance. Although they are united, these two families still harbor their own schemes.

Actually, Ye Xiao's biggest gain today was eavesdropping and learning that these people already know he is a member of the Flame Dragon Team, hence they wouldn't dare to make rash moves against him. Moreover, Liuyue was merely their pawn, aimed to use Liuyue to kill him.

"Enough eavesdropping, right?"

As Ye Xiao continued to spy on Chen Maocai and Chen Zeming, a mocking voice suddenly reached Ye Xiao's ears, startling him. He quickly turned around and saw, about ten meters away, stood a young man who seemed to be a bit older than him, around twenty-five or six, who was looking at him with a playful expression.

Chen Cangyu!

When Chen Cangyu emerged earlier, Ye Xiao saw him, so he knew the person before him was Chen Cangyu, the one arrogantly wanting to confront him.

Ye Xiao looked at Chen Cangyu and said, "Hello!"

Chen Cangyu looked at Ye Xiao with disdain, completely indifferent to Ye Xiao's friendly greeting, and said coldly, "Daring to trespass in the Chen family estate in broad daylight, it seems you're not an ordinary person. But now that I've caught you, you'll just have to accept your bad luck."

Arrogant!

Indeed, quite arrogant!

At this moment, Chen Maocai and Chen Zeming, who were speaking back by the villa, also heard Chen Cangyu's voice and immediately looked over.

Ye Xiao was behind a cover, so they couldn't see Ye Xiao's appearance.

"You mean I have to leave my life here?" Ye Xiao looked at Chen Cangyu and said with a smile.

Chen Cangyu said, "You're perceptive. Fine, I'll leave you a whole corpse."

"Is that so?" Ye Xiao smiled faintly, saying, "It seems you've reached about the late-stage Xuan Rank. Achieving such strength isn't easy. You have talent and might become a great expert someday. Don't make things difficult for me, and maybe you will indeed become a master. Otherwise, there's no guarantee that you won't die."

Chen Cangyu's arrogance was overt, but Ye Xiao's was understated.

His expression showed no hint of arrogance, but as soon as he finished speaking, Chen Cangyu's face turned livid.

From birth until now, he was full of pride, with few people stronger than him among his peers, and no one dared to disdain him. Anyone who dared would be crippled by his fists.

Yet today, Ye Xiao expressed disdainful contempt toward him.

Ye Xiao completely disregarded Chen Cangyu.

"I want to see whether it's my death or yours today!" Chen Cangyu's face changed with anger, and he dashed towards Ye Xiao like an arrow, with his violent inner power true qi sweeping along with him.

Ye Xiao smiled slightly and moved as well, matching Chen Cangyu's speed perfectly.

Once they clashed, fists and kicks flew, and bursts of explosive sounds made onlookers wary.

"Surround them, don't let this person get away." Chen Zeming looked at the young man who was matching his son and immediately ordered the Chen family's guards to encircle Ye Xiao and Chen Cangyu.

At this moment, the battle between Ye Xiao and Chen Cangyu attracted quite a few spectators.

"This young man isn't very old, but his strength is extraordinary," Chen Maocai remarked as he watched Ye Xiao fighting with his grandson.

As an exceptionally powerful martial artist elder, Chen Maocai hadn't taken action in a long time. In his view, there were few people in Bird City worth his effort nowadays.

Just like a commander leading an army, who rarely lowers himself to duel with an enemy soldier, Ye Xiao seemed like just a small soldier in Chen Maocai's eyes.

"Yes, he seems to be a highly talented young man, but how did he end up in our Chen family? I wonder if he overheard our conversation just now," Chen Zeming said worriedly.

Chen Maocai replied, "He definitely heard it, but with Cang Yu's strength, taking him down shouldn't be a problem."

Chen Maocai had great confidence in his exceptionally gifted grandson. Despite being only twenty-five or twenty-six, Cang Yu's strength was already nearing the peak of Xuan Rank. He could fully break through to Earth Rank before he's thirty. It's important to note that, back in his day, reaching Earth Rank by nearly fifty was considered quite good. Martial arts cultivation is no simple path.

Chen Zeming watched Ye Xiao battle his son without blinking. Suddenly, a notion flashed through his mind, and his expression turned slightly surprised as he immediately said to Chen Maocai, "Father, doesn't this person look like the Ye Xiao from the photo we saw earlier?"

"Ye Xiao?" Hearing Chen Zeming's words, Chen Maocai was a bit surprised and looked again at Ye Xiao, who was fighting.

Though Ye Xiao and Chen Cangyu moved swiftly and those around could hardly see their faces, who is Chen Maocai? As an Earth Rank martial artist watching their fight, it seemed slow to him, so he could naturally see Ye Xiao's face clearly.

"It really is him!" Chen Maocai's expression changed at once. If it was Ye Xiao, then wouldn't his grandson be in significant danger now?

Hearing Chen Maocai's certainty, Chen Zeming was also taken aback because, if his father confirmed it, then this person must be Ye Xiao.

Meanwhile, Ye Xiao fought Chen Cangyu swiftly with a smile, and in a few moments, they exchanged over a dozen rounds. Initially, Chen Cangyu fought quite easily, but soon he realized something was off. No matter how he boosted his strength, Ye Xiao could match his level, maintaining an even battle throughout.

Of course, this balance was only in the eyes of others. In Chen Cangyu's perception, this was very troubling.

Chen Cangyu was proud and keen-minded, realizing the person before him was far more complex than he appeared. Throughout, he kept a smile which, to Chen Cangyu, was pure disdain.

The thing Chen Cangyu hated most was being underestimated, yet the more he loathed it, the broader Ye Xiao's smile became, intensifying Chen Cangyu's rage.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In continuous exchanges, Chen Cangyu unleashed his ultimate moves, but he couldn't gain any advantage, and the battle with Ye Xiao reached a deadlock, making it hard to even separate.

Just as they fought rapidly, Chen Maocai, standing beside Chen Zeming, noticed a spot where Ye Xiao was closest to him and immediately saw an opportunity. With a swift movement, he charged towards Ye Xiao, channeling a substantial amount of true qi to strike Ye Xiao down with one palm.

However, he did not foresee Ye Xiao's full capability. When Chen Maocai moved, Ye Xiao had already sensed it, so when he noticed Chen Maocai's movement, his speed suddenly surged. Originally, Chen Cangyu was about to land a punch on Ye Xiao, but when he thrust, he realized Ye Xiao was gone, and standing before him was his grandfather, Chen Maocai.

When Chen Maocai's palm was about to land, he discovered Ye Xiao had vanished, replaced by his grandson.

Chen Maocai knew full well the power of his palm. If it was to strike Ye Xiao, it would be expected, but if it landed on Chen Cangyu, wouldn't he be heartbroken? The Zhao family had already been extinguished by Ye Xiao, and Chen Maocai didn't want the same fate for the Chen family.

Chen Maocai quickly pulled back his palm and leapt backward.

At this moment, Ye Xiao had already moved behind Chen Cangyu.

"Cang Yu, watch out!" Chen Maocai shouted in shock.
