“Of course, you’ve been too eager. Seventy or eighty million isn’t much, but for you, it’s quite a pressure, right? Everything you’re doing now can be described as sparing no expense. If you can’t buy it, I think you’ll resort to some unconventional methods.”
Ye Chenfeng said seriously.
Wang Mingkun nodded: “Yes, the ancient scroll is indeed very significant. Through my connections, I’ve uncovered some information about the Undying Legion. Another faction of the Undying Legion mysteriously disappeared, with only a few people leaving. The records show they reached some corner of Earth, as if they’d entered another world, and more fascinatingly, the people there use the Ayapanek language.”
After glancing at Ye Chenfeng, Wang Mingkun continued: “But over the past few hundred years, only two people are known to speak this language. Nevertheless, the Undying Legion invaded a tribe resembling a country, where most mysteriously vanished, and those who returned alive became classified as top secret. It puzzled me greatly; upon seeing the ancient scroll in your hand, I was certain there’s a huge secret because the writing is identical.”
Ye Chenfeng grinned: “Don’t worry, Mr. Wang, once the ancient scroll is translated, I’ll find you.”
Wang Mingkun’s eyes suddenly brightened: “Could it be that Mr. Ye has a solution?”
“As it happens, I have friends who know the last two speakers!”
Wang Mingkun was overjoyed, exclaiming excitedly: “I knew I wasn’t mistaken; Mr. Ye is even more mysterious and stronger than I imagined.”
“Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, you never thought I’d know more than you, right? It seems I’ll have to use Wang Mingkun, to uncover the secret before the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion does. Now I have the complete map, let’s send the Ghost Special Forces over first.”
Ye Chenfeng’s lips curled into a smile.
“Huh? There’s someone tracking me! Here’s something interesting!”
Ye Chenfeng ambled leisurely on the street, suddenly smiling.
Ye Chenfeng soon arrived at the villa’s foot, but in the next instant, he vanished into thin air.
“Huh? Where’s he gone?”
But then a shadow appeared, dressed in a night suit, its face entirely obscured.
Searching the area, this person’s expression suddenly changed, instinctively retreating backward.
“Trying to escape? Not happening!”
As the voice sounded, a shadow dashed around the person, spinning swiftly, leaving trailing afterimages.
“Ugh, blech…”
Seconds later, the person staggered, vomiting.
Ye Chenfeng had bafflingly caused him dizziness…
“Did you realize I was there?”
The man asked in disbelief.
Ye Chenfeng lit a cigarette, took a drag, and said, “What do you think?”
“To be honest, my following skills are top-notch; I’ve tracked in Divine Land without being noticed. You’re the first.”
The man said with arrogance.
Ye Chenfeng nodded indifferently: “Indeed, the tracking techniques are excellent; it took me quite a while to detect.”
“Can you tell me how you spotted me?”
The man asked curiously.
“Temperature!”
Ye Chenfeng replied with just two words.
The man nodded: “I understand.”
“Explain your identity and purpose…”
Ye Chenfeng stared at him.
“I heard you’ve become the Sect Leader of Northern Faction Hongmen?”
Ye Chenfeng nodded instinctively: “Correct, hold on, is there a Southern Faction Hongmen?”
“Yes, I’m Wu Xiaotian from Southern Faction Hongmen! The Hongmen Northern Faction Sect Leader didn’t let people down!”
Wu Xiaotian laughed, though cold and arrogant, clearly not taking Ye Chenfeng seriously.
Ye Chenfeng extinguished the cigarette: “Go on, what does your Southern Faction Hongmen want?”
“Our Southern Faction Hongmen’s ultimate aim has always been to unify Hongmen. Recently, I heard Northern Faction Hongmen is divided and chaotic, so our Southern Faction Hongmen decided to recapture Northern Faction Hongmen and unite Divine Land Hongmen!”
Wu Xiaotian exalted arrogantly.
Ye Chenfeng smiled: “Then come directly, why come to me?”
Wu Xiaotian said: “We’ve thoroughly investigated. Now, in Northern Faction Hongmen, you hold the main power, so I came to find you. The purpose is simple: to have you voluntarily join our Southern Faction Hongmen.”
“Oh? You mean to say surrender? That’s what you’re getting at?”
Ye Chenfeng asked curiously.
“Rest assured, you won’t be treated unfairly! If Southern and Northern factions merge, you’ll be the Vice Sect Leader of Hongmen, one rank below the top. Eventually, merging overseas Hongmen will elevate your position. Countless wealth and beauties await, surpassing your Forbidden God King role. You needn’t decide immediately; we’ll give you time to consider!”
Seeing Ye Chenfeng deep in thought, Wu Xiaotian’s lips formed a smile.
“No need to consider, I’ll reply directly!”
Ye Chenfeng stated.
Wu Xiaotian showed joy: “Looks like you’re pragmatic; I have confidence in you!”
“Actually, let me share a secret: I’m from the countryside, accustomed to hardship; I prefer a tough life. Your luxurious lifestyle doesn’t suit me!”
Ye Chenfeng’s words left Wu Xiaotian stunned for several seconds.
“You’re messing with me?”
Realizing, Wu Xiaotian glared at Ye Chenfeng.
“Get lost, go tell your Southern Hongmen Sect Leader, if he’s got the guts, come himself!”
“Smack!”
Wu Xiaotian attempted to speak but saw Ye Chenfeng slap his face, flinging him sideways.
“Ye Chenfeng, wait for it, three days later there will be a tea meeting between Southern and Northern Hongmen factions; hope to see you there!”
Wu Xiaotian glared at Ye Chenfeng, fuming.
“Sure, I won’t miss such tea gatherings!” Ye Chenfeng confidently confirmed.
“You…”
Wu Xiaotian was furious nearly to the point of spitting blood, yet he could only leave in frustration.
Shortly after, Wu Xiaotian arrived at a hotel.
In the presidential suite, there were five or six people.
A middle-aged man sat on a leather sofa, wearing a suit with gold-rimmed glasses, resembling a businessman.
A glass of red wine swirled in his hand, his gaze fixed on the sparkling goblet, as if contemplating life.
Across him was a lama, along with two junior lamas.
The elder lama’s face resembled steel, with eyes that gleamed and set nerves on edge.
The two junior lamas emitted a terrifying aura, like ticking time bombs threatening lives.
“How did it go?”
The suited man suddenly spoke.
With the sound of footsteps, Wu Xiaotian appeared in the room.
“Reporting to Vice Sect Leader, Ye Chenfeng discovered me. I had a direct confrontation with him…”
Wu Xiaotian recounted the encounter to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man noticed the slap mark on Wu Xiaotian’s face, asking: “Was it his doing?”
