Martial Arts Master in the City

"Did I say you must follow me?" Ye Xiao smiled mysteriously.

Su Yun heard this and became even more confused, saying, "What do you mean?"

Clearly, Su Yun really didn't understand what Ye Xiao meant. Could it be that he's already decided to give up? But then, why did he just say such strange things?

Ye Xiao naturally had his own ideas, or rather, no one could change Ye Xiao's ideas, just as no one could change his decisions.

Ye Xiao did not answer Su Yun's question, but instead smiled and said, "Huo Wensong is the only son of the Huo family of the Linghuo Sect, isn't he? By the way, does Huo Wensong's father, Huo Qinglong, have any brothers or anything?"

"No, Huo Wensong is the third-generation successor!" Su Yun replied.

"A fine third-generation successor!" Ye Xiao laughed and said, "That's exactly what I want, a third-generation successor!"

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Su Yun became even more puzzled. What does Huo Wensong being a third-generation successor have to do with Ye Xiao? Could it be that Ye Xiao thinks that because Huo Wensong is a third-generation successor, he should give up on this matter?

Although Su Yun verbally told Ye Xiao to give up, in reality, she truly didn't want to surrender. After all, once Ye Xiao gives up, it would mean she has to marry that jerk Huo Wensong.

Su Yun really couldn't imagine how she would live the rest of her life. If she were unlucky and lived a long time, and if Huo Wensong were also a long-living person, wouldn't that mean enduring a long period of torment?

The future was simply unimaginable!

Although Su Yun had these thoughts in her heart, she understood that Ye Xiao being able to give up was the best choice, because the Linghuo Sect was simply too powerful.

"I've said what I needed to say, now you should leave the Northern Territory." Su Yun looked at Ye Xiao and said.

In fact, Su Yun was just saying it, knowing full well that based on Ye Xiao's personality, he certainly wouldn't agree so readily.

Yet, this time Su Yun was really mistaken because, after Su Yun finished speaking, Ye Xiao actually nodded, stood up, and said, "I should leave. Before you are free, I won't see you."

After finishing speaking, Ye Xiao directly prepared to leave!

Su Yun was truly taken aback. What exactly is Ye Xiao planning? Is he really giving up like this? To Su Yun, this doesn't seem like the Ye Xiao she's familiar with.

Su Yun did not stand up but continued to sit on the sofa, her heart like an overturned bottle of mixed emotions: sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty!

Ye Xiao did not hesitate, but instead walked out of Su Yun's residence with large strides!

When Ye Xiao went outside, there were quite a few people standing at the door, including three people Ye Xiao hadn't seen before, dressed differently from the other guards.

Liuu Nong was standing to the side of those three people, clearly of lower status than them. Seeing Ye Xiao come out, Liuu Nong immediately looked at Ye Xiao with caution.

"Can you leave now?" Liuu Nong looked at Ye Xiao.

Actually, even Liuu Nong felt a bit silly asking these questions, because he knew that Ye Xiao certainly wouldn't leave, after all, if Ye Xiao were to leave, there wouldn't have been a need for a fight earlier.

"Alright!" Ye Xiao replied with a smile.

Liuu Nong was instantly shocked!

He really didn't expect Ye Xiao to agree so directly.

And those three new people were also very puzzled; clearly, the information they received before coming was that the person in front of them should be particularly arrogant and wouldn't be so amiable.

However, Ye Xiao was surprisingly amiable, walking directly along the small path in the manor, heading toward the Su family gate.

Liuu Nong and the others looked at each other, then Liuu Nong looked at Ye Xiao and personally led the group to follow Ye Xiao, evidently wanting to see what trick Ye Xiao was up to today!

But in fact, Ye Xiao played no tricks and directly left the Su family manor.

Standing at the Su family manor gate, Liuu Nong and the Su family guards were very surprised, watching Ye Xiao's departing figure with a sense of curiosity about what made this previously formidable guy suddenly so obedient?

"Surely the young lady broke up with him," muttered one guard.

Other guards immediately nodded in agreement, evidently thinking there seemed to be no other possibility.

"Trying to compete with Young Master Huo is simply asking for trouble; surely the young lady told him his opponent is Young Master Huo, and he decided to wisely retreat." Liuu Nong mocked, "People like him are simply unworthy to enter the Su family door, and I think he won't be coming in the future either."

"But I think this guy must be quite capable too, considering he was holding the young lady just now," said the previous guard.

Hearing this, Liuu Nong frowned at the guard, and said, "You sure know a lot, don't you? But do you know you're on night duty tonight?"

"Brother Liuu, I was on night duty last night!"

Liuu Nong did not even glance at the guy and said, "Find someone to prove it!"

"My name is on the sign-in sheet."

"I signed for you, do you believe it? Get someone to prove otherwise!" Liuu Nong's unhappy gaze fell on the guard's face, who wanted to continue debating.

The guard immediately fell silent.

Rank trumps ability; continuing to talk might bring more headaches.

Now shifting focus!

Ye Xiao left the Su family, without looking back, knowing he didn't need to return because he was definitely coming back, as his beloved woman was here.

How could he let others snore beside his bed?

Likewise, how could he let others touch his woman?

Ye Xiao was absolutely petty about such things.

Thus, he would definitely return to take Su Yun away, of course, he could forcibly do it today, but that would bring great danger to the Su family—such danger, unimaginable, was certainly beyond his imagination, and Su Yun wouldn't go with him.

Wanting to take Su Yun away, he first had to resolve Su Yun's worries.

Su Yun's current worry was clearly the future of the Su family.

Although an old saying goes, 'a married daughter is like spilled water,' Su Yun hasn't married yet; thus, as a member of the Su family, she has a duty to consider the family's future.

After Ye Xiao left the Su family, he walked for a long time before he managed to hail a taxi, then directly called Zhou Hao.

After asking where Zhou Hao's hotel was, Ye Xiao immediately took the taxi there.

Shengtian Hotel is located near the city center of Han City, boasting a decent four-star rating.

Since Ye Xiao had called ahead, both Zhou Hao and Wangg Yin were already at the entrance waiting for him when he arrived.
