Chapter 473 Night Raid

"Yeah, isn’t it pretty?" Nangong Yue asked, doing a little twirl to show off.

Gu Meng and Bai Xi also flaunted their new acquisitions in front of Wen Rubing.

Wen Rubing felt a pang of jealous regret. She should have gone shopping with Ye Liangchen as well. Now, Gu Meng and the others had beautiful clothes, shoes, expensive jewelry, and even lipstick, while she had nothing.

Just then, Ye Xiu and Tang Bo walked in. "Let’s go!" Ye Xiu said.

"Let’s go, let’s go! I can’t wait," Nangong Yue urged eagerly.

"I’m so excited," Gu Meng said.

"Then, let’s hurry," Bai Xi added timidly.

Seeing how eager the three of them were, Wen Rubing asked curiously, "Where are you guys going?"

"What’s it to you?" Ye Xiu retorted bluntly. When dealing with an arrogant girl like Wen Rubing, you couldn’t give her an inch.

"You..." Wen Rubing’s cheeks puffed out with anger.

"We’re going to eat delicious food, watch a movie, and hit the nightclubs," Nangong Yue said coquettishly.

Wen Rubing’s interest was piqued. She didn’t care much for food, but she had read about "movies" and "nightclubs" in books and had never experienced them herself. She was extremely curious.

She stood up and declared, "I want to go too."

"Do you have any money?" Ye Xiu asked.

"No!" Wen Rubing shook her head. Having lived in the deep mountains since childhood, she had no concept of money. She had only ever heard of it but had never even seen it. "Gu Meng and the other two don’t have any either."

"I’m treating them," Ye Xiu said.

"Then why can’t you treat me?" Wen Rubing demanded.

"Why should I treat you?" Ye Xiu countered.

Wen Rubing took a deep, irritated breath. Her pretty face went pale with rage as she pouted, "I don’t care. I’m going."

Ye Xiu neither refused nor agreed. He simply turned and left with Tang Bo, Gu Meng, Nangong Yue, and Bai Xi.

Wen Rubing shamelessly tagged along.

In the parking lot, Ye Xiu chose a minivan, since a regular car wouldn’t be big enough for everyone. After Tang Bo, Gu Meng, Nangong Yue, and Bai Xi were inside, Wen Rubing moved to get in, but Ye Xiu slammed the door shut.

"I’m not in yet!" Wen Rubing huffed.

"Did I say I was taking you?" Ye Xiu sneered before getting into the driver’s seat and closing his own door.

As she watched the minivan start up and drive away, Wen Rubing was on the verge of tears from the sheer frustration. How could someone be so mean?

"Hmph, I’ll follow you anyway!"

With a single leap, she landed squarely on the roof of the minivan and sat down cross-legged. With her level of strength, Ye Xiu couldn’t shake her off even if he tried drifting.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Ye Xiu had booked a private room with only five seats, just enough for himself, Tang Bo, Gu Meng, Nangong Yue, and Bai Xi.

Seeing this, Wen Rubing felt another surge of anger, but she was determined to stick to Ye Xiu like glue. If there was no seat, she would stand.

Soon, the food arrived. Ye Xiu had ordered extravagantly, filling the entire table. None of them—not Tang Bo, Gu Meng, Nangong Yue, Bai Xi, or Wen Rubing—had ever seen such a spectacular spread of dishes that looked, smelled, and tasted so divine. Tang Bo, Gu Meng, Nangong Yue, and Bai Xi immediately began to eat voraciously, without a care for their image.

With no seat and no utensils, Wen Rubing simply started grabbing food with her bare hands.

No one stopped her, and no one paid her any mind.

With every bite, however, Wen Rubing felt more and more wronged and regretful. If she had known there were so many benefits to following Ye Xiu, she never would have treated him so poorly.

After dinner, Ye Xiu led the group to see a movie, deliberately not buying a ticket for Wen Rubing. This time, she couldn’t freeload and had no choice but to wait outside, feeling sorry for herself.

"Was the movie good?" she asked Gu Meng pitifully when Ye Xiu’s group finally came out.

Gu Meng, Nangong Yue, and Bai Xi launched into an enthusiastic description. It was their first movie, and the novelty of it was thrilling.

Wen Rubing felt another wave of envy and self-pity. She was so close to apologizing to Ye Xiu, but her pride and dignity wouldn’t let her back down.

Next, Ye Xiu took them to a bar.

As soon as they entered, Tang Bo’s eyes scanned the room like radar and quickly locked onto a target. "I see Fangfang! You guys have fun, I’m going to go chat her up." With that, he dashed off toward Fangfang.

Cao Ting and Fangfang also saw Ye Xiu. Cao Ting was about to greet him, but then she saw Gu Meng, Nangong Yue, Bai Xi, and Wen Rubing with him and instantly lost her nerve. Compared to those four, her looks weren’t even in the same league; greeting him would only be asking for humiliation. At that moment, Cao Ting felt another sharp pang of regret.

Ye Xiu found a table and ordered a huge assortment of liquors. Gu Meng, Nangong Yue, Bai Xi, and Wen Rubing had only ever had homemade spirits and had never seen so many colorful, fancy drinks before. The four beauties began eagerly toasting one another, each trying to drink as much as possible, afraid of missing out.

Especially Wen Rubing. My god, she chugged an entire bottle of XO on her own.

「In the wee hours of the morning!」

More than a dozen men in black masks were racing through the darkness at an astonishing speed. Soon, they arrived outside the Long Family Manor.

"Linglong, should we really charge in like this? What if the Long Family Manor is full of masters?" one of the masked men asked.

"Maybe we should wait for news from Gao Xuan and Li Chuan," another suggested.

"When we returned, Gao Xuan and Li Chuan weren’t at the rendezvous point. I fear they’ve already met with disaster," Jiang Linglong said gravely. "There are sixteen of us: five masters above the War God rank and eleven War Gods. Even if the Long Family Manor has many people, we have nothing to fear. The Long Family dared to kill Jiao Fuping, the Fire-Water Judges, Gao Xuan, and Li Chuan. They must pay the price."

"If that’s the case, then let’s storm them!" a nearby masked man declared, his voice thick with killing intent.

"Remember," Jiang Linglong commanded, her killing intent boiling, "once we’re inside, kill everyone you see. No mercy." With a wave of her small hand, she shouted, "Attack!"

She was the first to charge into the Long Family Manor, with the fifteen other masked men right behind her.

"Enemy attack!"

The group of sixteen had barely rushed in before they were spotted by the Long Family’s hidden sentries. An explosive roar echoed throughout the entire estate.

Instantly, all 482 people in the Long Family Manor rushed out from their quarters, with the exception of Ye Xiu, Tang Bo, Gu Meng, Nangong Yue, Bai Xi, and Wen Rubing, who were not present.

Upon hearing the alarm, the four severely wounded men living in a dilapidated house in the breeding area—Long Yifei, Wei Tingxuan, Wei Maoyuan, and Wei Guangyu—hurried outside.

"Is it Huang Quan’s people, or Ye Xiu’s?" Long Yifei asked in a low voice, watching the sixteen masked men already clashing with the Long family members.

"Huang Quan’s power is overwhelming, and they are invincible throughout the world; they wouldn’t launch a night raid. It must be Ye Xiu’s men," Wei Tingxuan deduced.

Long Yifei’s eyes lit up as he bellowed, "Wipe them out!"

That shout was like poking a hornet’s nest.

Jiang Linglong looked toward the source of the sound, recognized Long Yifei at a glance, and immediately charged at him, sword raised.
