The girl took out a photo from her pocket and waved at a middle-aged man walking toward her.
âYou⌠Yes, you. Come here for a moment. I have something to ask you.â
The bespectacled middle-aged man was a little confused. However, seeing that it was late, and that the other party was a child, he went over with a look of concern on his face.
âLittle girl, are you lost?â
The girl shook her head and pointed at the person in the photo.
âHave you seen the guy in the photo?â
If Ye Chen was here, he would definitely realize that the young man in the photo was him!
The middle-aged man glanced at the photo and shook his head.
âIâm sorry, Iâm not a local here, so youâll have to ask someone else.â
The girlâs face looked a little disappointed, but suddenly, she sensed something and instantly disappeared, leaving the middle-aged man behind.
All he felt was a gust of windâŚ
He looked around, but there was not even a shadow of the girl!
The middle-aged man took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes.
âCould that have been an illusion? It looks like Iâve been working overtime too much these past few daysâŚâ
The next morning, Ye Chen had just opened his eyes and subconsciously wanted to hug Xia Ruoxue, but suddenly realized that no one was beside him.
He put on his clothes and washed up. When he went downstairs, he realized that Xia Ruoxue and Sun Yi were already having breakfast.
Sun Yi rolled her eyes at Ye Chen and said, âYou sure know how to sleep. Itâs almost nine oâclock. You usually wake up so early, but you slept like a pig last night.â
âForget it. We have to make the final preparations today. Shen Haihua and 1 attach great importance to this press conference. Seeing that weâve worked so hard, shouldnât you, the big boss, give us a bigger year-end bonus?â Sun Yi said jokingly.
Ye Chen nodded.
âOf course. 1 can give you the entire Heavenly Justice Group.â
Sun Yi rolled her eyes at Ye Chen, grabbed her bag, and turned to leave.
âThe press conference is at 11 oâclock. After this press conference is over, I should be able to rest for a few days.â
After saying that, Sun Yi disappeared from the villa, leaving Xia Ruoxue behind.
Ye Chen pulled out the chair beside Xia Ruoxue and asked, âShouldnât you tell me what happened now?â
âAfter all, yesterday, you said you were my woman.â
Xia Ruoxue blushed, but just as she was about to speak, Ye Chenâs phone vibrated.
It was a text message that read. âMr. Ye, we received news that the Qin family is on their way back to Jiangnan Province.â
Ye Chen was stunned when he saw the message.
Then, he looked at Xia Ruoxue and said, âItâs related to the Qin familyâs return, isnât it?â
Xia Ruoxue was stunned. She did not expect Ye Chen to find out about it.
âYouâre worried about your engagement with Qin Zhengyang, right?â Ye Chen continued calmly.
A few seconds later, Xia Ruoxue said, âYe Chen, thank you for everything you did for me yesterday. I donât regret it.â
âHowever. I hope that you wonât interfere in the Qin familyâs matters. This time, not only has the Qin family returned, but an expert from the Kunlun Mountains has also come.â
Ye Chenâs eyes narrowed when he heard this.
Ah! So that was the reason why the Qin family was so confident. If his guess was correct, this expert from the Kunlun Mountains was very likely to be the same kind of person as him, a cultivator!
He might even be someone that was expelled from the Kunlun Mountains.
Even so, he was not afraid.
Ye Chen held Xia Ruoxueâs hand and said seriously, âSince youâre now my woman, no one in this world has the right to touch you!â
âAre you willing to believe in me?â
Xia Ruoxueâs eyes stared intently at Ye Chen. After a few seconds, she nodded and replied, âI⌠Iâm willing.â
âAlright, stay in the villa for the next two days. Leave the rest to me.â
âOkay.â
Xia Ruoxue did not say anything. For once, she wanted to trust someone to save her from this situation. If there was anyone she could believe in, it was Ye Chen.
After all, he had never stopped performing miracles ever since he resurfaced in River City.
Ye Chen stood up and went straight to the balcony on the second floor. The first call he made was to Rakshasa.
âGuard the villa 24/7!â
âYes, Master!â
Ye Chen then made a second call.
âThe Qin family is coming back. Ye Lingtian, how strong are you and how strong is the Dark Hall?â
âThere are no worries on our end, Hall Master!â
âAlright.â
Jordan wanted to make a third call, but after thinking for a long time, he gave up. This last phone number should not be used for the time being.
He did not know if the person the old man was talking about was still alive.
However, when he left the Kunlun Mountains, the old man had only said to him, âWhen you are outside, remember that you are my disciple. No one has the right to touch you. If they donât have eyes and you canât deal with them, call this number. He will help you settle everything.â
âIf the call doesnât go through, it means that the person is dead and you have no fate with him.â
âRemember, this call can only be made once. Donât use it unless itâs a matter of life and death.â
Ye Chen put his phone back in his pocket and closed his eyes, holding the black stone in his hand.
The Samsara Graveyard appeared in front of him, and the third tombstone shone brighter and brighter. However, it still had not reached the point where it could be fully activated.
The Dragonslayer Sword appeared in Ye Chenâs hand.
Looking at the sky, his cold killing intent swept out, as he said indifferently, âAn expert from the Kunlun Mountains? 1 hope you wonât disappoint me!â
Jiangnan Provinceâs Airport.
A private jet slowly made its descent and landed.
At this moment, the airport was quite crowded, which was unusual. Furthermore, the majority of the crowd here exuded strong martial auras.
These people had long received the news that the Qin family had returned, and were also aware that the Qin family had successfully brought back a top-notch expert from the Kunlun Mountains this time!
