Chapter 145: Chapter 145: Still Think Ye Fan Doesn't Have Enough Wives?
Could this be a coincidence?
Zhou Ming died and just happened to forget everything about the battle, even whom he had fought against?
"I just got the news this morning that Sun Desheng, arranged by Tang Zheng, has failed. Even the generals of Myanmar and Ye Fan are acquainted. How many more cards does this Ye Fan hold?"
Elder Zhang rubbed his head with some headache, now very suspicious that Ye Fan had already awakened.
Elder Zhang, in alliance with Elder Tang Zheng, had marshaled so many forces to eliminate the Ye Family, to suppress both the Su Corporation and the Qing Family, but all their efforts were invisibly resolved.
There must be a mastermind operating behind the Ye Family!
But Ye Changfeng is already on the brink of death; is he capable?
"Elder, should we notify the young master? The young master has just returned from his studies in the Four Great Holy Lands and The Nether, reputed to have become the Nether Holy Master's closed-door disciple, and his strength has even broken through to Martial Venerable... Perhaps we should have the young master personally visit Tiannan Province to find out Ye Fan's actual situation," the secretary beside Elder Zhang tentatively inquired.
Dealing with the other ten core disciples of Ye Fan had gone smoothly, but only that old fool from the Ye Family was so troublesome to handle.
And the most critical issue was that there was absolutely no firsthand information about Ye Fan's true circumstances.
Those who had contact with Ye Fan were either all dead or, like Zhou Ming, had their memories of that time completely forgotten.
The details of Ye Fan must be thoroughly investigated!
After pondering for a few seconds, Elder Zhang spoke with some gravity, "Let's wait until Xiao Feng returns! However, indeed we need someone to go to Tiannan to clarify the situation."
Elder Zhang heaved a sigh, feeling somewhat worried!
Chu Feng and Zhou Ming, two great experts, had suffered setbacks in Cloud City one after another; the Ye Family was becoming increasingly difficult to handle.
But if they didn't take down the Ye Family, he feared that as the Ye Family continued their in-depth investigation, they would eventually trace it back to him. The Holy Envoy Organization had said that if there was actual evidence, they would not hesitate to abandon him as a dispensable pawn.
"Elder, there's a call from the Gu Sect, should I take it?" While Elder Zhang was contemplating, the secretary's mobile phone suddenly rang.
"Answer it!" Elder Zhang knew that all the experts of the Gu Sect had been wiped out, even Third Elder Ling Yun had died; the Gu Sect must have learned the news.
"Elder Zhang, what's going on? Why is the Life-Death Medallion of Third Elder Ling Yun shattered on our end? Is Ling Yun dead? And the other Gu Sect experts, their Lifebound Gu Worms are also dead, what exactly happened?" The voice on the phone was that of the Gu Sect's Patriarch Zhuang Bifan, sounding somewhat anxious.
Although Third Elder Ling Yun had always been a threat to Zhuang Bifan's position, Ling Yun's Gu Techniques and strength had been very beneficial to the development of the Gu Sect.
At least, with Third Elder present, some external forces contemplating moves against the Gu Sect would have to weigh their options carefully.
But with the death of Third Elder, it signified a weakening of the Gu Sect's power.
The Gu Sect's bargaining power in negotiations with allies would undoubtedly diminish in the future.
"Yes! Patriarch Zhuang, the experts you sent this time, along with the men I arranged, have all perished in Cloud City. We're investigating the exact cause of death... but one thing is certain, this matter is undoubtedly related to Ye Fan!"
Elder Zhang continued with a detailed description of the situation, "According to Jin Yang's arrangement, they had already kidnapped Su Yixue, Xuan Yufei, Ye Fan, Qing Ruolan, and led them to the cement factory. However, in the end, the cement factory exploded. Jin Yang and all the members of the Gu Sect were wiped out, but Ye Fan and his three wives were unharmed..."
"Damn it!"
Zhuang Bifan cursed on the phone, "It must've been Ye Fan's doing! Five years ago, Ye Fan was such a monstrous genius, you all kept saying he was an idiot, I seriously suspect that he has already awakened!"
"Elder Zhang, we have all suffered such great losses, the matter can't just end like this, right? We haven't even found those treasures of the Ye Family. If they fall into other people's hands, won't everything you did before be a great loss?"
Elder Zhang snorted coldly, "Of course, we can't just let this go! My grandson is about to return from Nether at one of the Four Great Holy Lands. I've already notified him to ask for the experts of the holy land to come out, and your Gu Sect should also send a group of strong fighters. We must exterminate Ye Fan in his cradle!"
"Good!"
...
In the Eastern Suburbs of Cloud City, Su Yixue was driving with Ye Fan towards the new factory, while saying, "Xiao Fan! Actually, Princess Yu's intentions are not that bad... She could have chosen not to come today, but when she saw that I was captured, she followed to rescue me and got caught herself. Aren't you being a bit too cold toward her?"
Ye Fan's mouth twitched slightly upon hearing Su Yixue's words.
Xuan Yufei's presence at the site today had indeed surprised Ye Fan. On the day of the funeral, she had resolutely broken off their engagement, only to later regret it and pursue him time and time again.
Today at the cement factory, when Xuan Yufei was threatened by Jin Yang, she was even willing to sacrifice herself to save Su Yixue.
Ye Fan couldn't help but think of the Soul Capturing Demonic Technique that afflicted Xuan Yufei. Could it be that she was really under control at that time?
"It was Princess Yu who first rejected me! Hmph... Yixue wife, what do you think I should do?" Of course, Ye Fan was lucid, but he decided to leave this difficult problem to Su Yixue to deal with.
Su Yixue hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Actually, it's quite simple! You two were originally the perfect couple. Why don't you give her another chance, Xiao Fan? Since you already have seven wives, one more wouldn't matter, right?"
Having said that, Su Yixue's face turned a shade of red!
What was she doing?
Did she think that Ye Fan didn't have enough wives already?
Ye Fan felt a mix of emotions internally. It seemed that Sister Su Yixue genuinely had his best interests at heart. However, Ye Fan added to himself that if Xuan Yufei joined them, it would likely be more than just seven wives... Ren Xueying from Provincial City had used her Great Phoenix to warm him up for an entire night six years ago, saving his life.
To repay her, he could only offer himself in return, right?
"Hehe! I already have many wives, we'll talk about this later... Yixue wife, we should be arriving soon, right?" Ye Fan's powerful Perception was released, and he had already sensed a very sinister evil aura stirring nearby, which bore a similar essence to that of Su Yixue.
"Yes, just a turn ahead!" Su Yixue replied. Seeing the simple look on Ye Fan's face, she couldn't figure out what he was really thinking and decided to drop the subject, focusing on driving towards the factory.
At this time, in the new factory selected by Su Corporation, several construction workers were organizing a few locust trees in the factory yard.
Beside the workers, a middle-aged man dressed in a long gown was burying several plastic bags filled with fresh blood beneath the trees.
"Priest Yan, hurry and evacuate... Su Yixue suddenly came to the factory again. If you are discovered, it will still be troublesome..." A voice suddenly came through the earpiece of the man in the robe. Without any hesitation, Priest Yan grabbed the bags he hadn't buried yet and swiftly flashed towards the side building...
