Chapter 386: Another Treasure Map
Wang Jiao sent Young Master Zheng from the Zheng Family to Chinatown Hospital.
At this moment, Chinatown Hospital was already in chaos.
"Daring to injure my grandson, I’ll make you pay in blood!"
Patriarch Zheng, Zheng Canglan, shouted angrily.
"Father, don’t be angry; be careful of your health."
Father Zheng, Zheng Zhonghai, advised, then turned to Wang Jiao.
"Ah Jiao, you say the one who hurt my son is a woman and a Martial Master, right?"
"Yes, Uncle, I was on the scene and saw with my own eyes that it was the woman who injured Ah Feng. Ah Feng is at a Half-step Martial Master level, to be able to harm him, she must be a Martial Master."
"Right, she was also with a servant named Ye Qingtian."
Wang Jiao felt somewhat anxious facing the Zheng Family.
"Good, very good, to have a servant and injure Ah Feng, she seems to have some skills, but you’ve provoked the Zheng Family, your death is near! Just a Martial Master, we, the Zheng Family, do not consider them worth anything."
Zheng Zhonghai’s eyes were full of harshness.
Seeing this, Wang Jiao said nothing further.
She didn’t mention anything about being related to Ye Qingtian.
Afraid that the Zheng Family would blame them, as Zheng Family’s power surpasses Wang Family’s.
That night, Zheng Zhonghai issued orders to find Shen Huamo and Ye Qingtian and bring them to the Zheng Family.
If they resist, kill them directly!
Afterwards, Wang Jiao returned to Wang Family, exhausted in both body and mind.
Du Yun saw her daughter returning home so late and in such a state, and couldn’t help but ask: "Ah Jiao, what’s the matter?"
Ah Jiao complained: "Mom, I told you not to help those poor relatives, but you didn’t listen. Now it’s a mess, Mr. Ye’s master hurt Young Master Zheng, and the Zheng Family is sending people everywhere looking for them. This may implicate our Wang Family!"
"What, what exactly happened?"
Du Yun looked shocked.
"Isn’t it because Ye Qingtian tried to play hero but didn’t have the skill, his master couldn’t stand it and helped him, hurting Da Qiang? I went to argue, his master and he both insulted me, so I called Young Master Zheng."
"But unexpectedly, his master was an expert, disabled Young Master Zheng’s subordinates, and even injured Young Master Zheng himself seriously."
"That guy is trouble; he came to rely on our Wang Family but made trouble. I think it’s mostly because his master doesn’t want him to be a servant anymore, so he brought him to Iceland to seek us out."
"Our Wang Family cannot take this hot potato! Otherwise, it will bring trouble!"
Wang Jiao complained.
At this time, Wang Jiao’s father, Wang Zhenshan, came down from upstairs, and hearing the conversation between mother and daughter, couldn’t help but shout: "Du Yun, how many times have I told you not to care about those beggars! But you just don’t listen!"
"Years ago, when your Du Family was kicked out of the Ye Family, wasn’t it me who foresaw it, and brought you abroad? Look at the Du Family in Huaxia, they’re almost begging to eat."
"You have no blood relation with Ye Qingtian’s aunt; she calls you sister because our Wang Family is doing well now!"
"Originally, I wanted Ah Jiao to marry Young Master Zheng, but now if the Zheng Family finds out that brat has ties with us, the marriage will likely fall through, and they might even come after our Wang Family!"
Wang Jiao’s father, Wang Zhenshan, kept on complaining.
Du Yun bit her red lips and said nothing.
She was an orphan from childhood, taken in by the Du Family. She’s always referred to Ye Qingtian’s mother and aunt as sisters.
Later, when Du Family was expelled from the Ye Family, with no other option, she moved with her boyfriend to faraway Iceland.
Over the years, she’s known the Du Family has been declining and becoming poorer.
She secretly sent money to the Du Family, but was discovered by Wang Zhenshan, who cut off her financial source, warning her many times not to be in contact with the Du Family.
This made her unable to receive any news from the Du Family!
The Du Family suddenly called her to take care of Ye Qingtian.
Thinking of past ties, she agreed.
And hoped her daughter could marry Ye Qingtian to repay the kindness of the Du Family for taking her in.
Unexpectedly, such a thing would happen.
"Ah Jiao, from now on, you just need to remember one thing, you don’t know that Ye kid! Don’t admit anything no matter what happens!"
Wang Zhenshan instructed Ah Jiao.
"Understood, Dad. That useless servant, I don’t want anything to do with him!"
"But what if the Zheng Family asks him and he says he’s related to us?"
Wang Jiao frowned slightly, looking at Wang Zhenshan.
"Make a call to that kid, arrange to meet him for a meal tomorrow. If he’s sensible, fine. If not, huh, no need for the Zheng Family to act, I’ll deal with him first!"
Wang Zhenshan snorted coldly.
Du Yun sighed beside them.
Meanwhile, Ye Qingtian and Shen Huamo escorted Luo Wenrou out of the bar, heading towards the little inn.
The sky was already dark, with a strange atmosphere surrounding them.
"Show yourself."
Ye Qingtian suddenly halted.
"What’s wrong, Master? Is someone following us?"
Shen Huamo asked vigilantly.
"Haha, surprised you discovered me."
As the words fell, a man appeared in front of Ye Qingtian.
It was Xiao Jianting.
"Nothing but petty tricks."
Ye Qingtian said indifferently.
"The matter that Mr. Ye instructed me to investigate is confirmed; that symbol indeed appeared in this small country more than once."
"Moreover, I’ve found that people from the Hidden Sect Realm have come to Iceland; they, like the Weiting Clan’s branch, are searching for Mr. Ye. They have two goals: one is to deal with Mr. Ye, and the other is to obtain the treasure map from him."
Xiao Jianting explained.
"Are you also calling him ’Mr. Ye’?"
Ye Qingtian raised an eyebrow, the coldness flashing forth.
"S-sorry, Master."
Xiao Jianting felt a chill inside and quickly corrected himself.
He initially thought he was on the same level as Ye Qingtian...
"Even if they obtain the treasure map, it is useless; it’s been applied with some kind of forbidden technique and is merely a fragment. The treasure map in my hand is only one-third of the full map."
Pausing, Ye Qingtian continued, "First, I need to know the precise location the symbol appeared, and also for you to collect information on the remaining fragments of the treasure map. Leave the small sects’ ants to dance for a few more days."
Ye Qingtian instructed.
"Understood, Master, and oh Master, I encountered the Mercenary Realm’s King upon arriving in Iceland; that man was overwhelmingly strong, almost killed me."
Xiao Jianting said with lingering fear.
"Oh? They’re getting restless too? Well, it is time to avenge that old brat Satan."
The ’old brat’ Ye Qingtian referred to was none other than Satan, the former number one mercenary in prison, titled as Mercenary King!
Old... old brat?
Satan, renowned across Europe, the strongest in the mercenary realm!
Xiao Jianting wiped the cold sweat from his brow, feeling more curious about Ye Qingtian’s mysterious identity.
At this moment, Ye Qingtian calmly asked: "Is there anything else to report?"
"One last thing, Master, Prince William of Iceland has submitted to me, and gifted me his Heaven-tier Gambling House."
"I intend to offer it to you, Master. You can play a few rounds in your leisure time for relaxation and its mixed clientele makes it useful for gathering intelligence."
Xiao Jianting reported honestly.
"You are gifting me my own possession?"
Ye Qingtian chuckled and left with Shen Huamo.
Xiao Jianting stood there stunned, contemplating the earlier words.
Then he realized, broke into a cold sweat.
"Could it be... everything in the world belongs to him?"
Xiao Jianting murmured, but he was too mysterious.
