Top-tier Unruly Master

"Elder, you haven't forgotten about the destruction of the Ding Family, have you?" Wang Zeyu said.

"The destruction of the Ding Family?" Wang Tingxu pondered for a moment.

At that time, Ding Fan had accidentally entered Ye Ning's dressing room. This angered the Ye Family, and as a result, Ding Fan was beaten half to death and thrown into the police station. Consequently, the Ding Family was implicated because of Ding Fan's incident, ultimately leading to their complete ruin.

At this moment, Wang Tingxu's eyes brightened as if he had also thought of what Wang Zeyu was implying. "What do you mean?"

Wang Zeyu nodded and said, "Although it was Wang Luohao who initially planned for Ding Fan to enter Ye Ningqing's bathroom, it was the Ye Family who destroyed the Ding Family. If we could subtly stir things up between them..."

A satisfied smile crossed Wang Tingxu's lips upon hearing this.

Wang Zeyu continued, "If we can turn the heat on the Ye Family, then even if Ding Fan survives, his life won't be peaceful. As both parties clash, one will surely get hurt, and by then, we can benefit from their dispute."

"Very well," Wang Tingxu said. "You go ahead and arrange this matter. Once it's accomplished, you will handle the Wang Family's business in Jiangbei."

Wang Zeyu's eyes lit up.

Among the Four Great Families, the Wang Family's enterprise was flourishing, especially in Jiangbei, a wealthy region of Huaxia Country. Within the family, many coveted the business in Jiangbei.

"Thank you, Elder. I will dedicate myself completely!"

Wang Tingxu then stood up and slowly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. He stared out into the dark night outside.

"Ding Fan… Luohao will not have died in vain!

…

The next morning, after Ding Fan and Mei Li had just finished breakfast, Xiao Wu came over.

Xiao Wu was only in his early twenties, but his cultivation had already reached Grade Eight of the Human Level. Since his rebirth, in terms of talent, Xiao Wu was indeed the best.

"Young Master Ding, Elder Mu is now waiting in the storeroom. Please come with me," he said.

Ding Fan nodded.

The previous day, while treating Elder Shen's illness, Elder Shen had mentioned that he wanted Ding Fan to visit their storeroom—a special forces unit directly under the central government, surely filled with treasures.

Ding Fan's help in treating Elder Shen's illness warranted some reward.

Leading the way, Xiao Wu went ahead, with Mei Li following along with Ding Fan as they exited the guest house. Meanwhile, a military Hummer was already parked outside.

The driver of the Hummer was none other than Xue Gang, who had brought Ding Fan and the others the day before.

Besides the Hummer, a camouflaged SUV was parked nearby. The window rolled down, revealing Mu Zi's pretty and playful face to Ding Fan.

Although Ding Fan intended to get into the Hummer, Mu Zi insisted from the side, leaving Ding Fan with no choice but to get into her camouflaged SUV instead.

After getting into the vehicle, Ding Fan released Zi Zi. Mu Zi and Zi Zi seemed to have a connection, and upon being freed, Zi Zi joyfully jumped onto Mu Zi's head, then nestled into her hair.

Zi Zi's endearing antics drew laughter from everyone.

Xiao Wu led the way in their Hummer, with Ding Fan's group following behind.

Ding Fan was surprised to see his vehicle leaving the military compound.

In his mind, the storeroom, filled with treasures, should have been strictly guarded inside the military compound, but unexpectedly, it was not located there.

After leaving the military compound, they drove on.

Surprisingly, they left Yanjing City and finally arrived at a hotel.

The hotel was not small in scale, possibly having over ten stories and a very modern design—it must be at least a five-star hotel.

Finally, their vehicles stopped outside the hotel.

With Xiao Wu and Xue Gang leading the way, Ding Fan and the others followed behind. Ding Fan was curious at this point; it was hard for him to imagine that this place housed the secret storeroom of Unit 3567.

As Ding Fan probed with his Divine Sense, he was astonished to find that the five-star hotel indeed had many secrets. Beneath the hotel was a secret passage.

The passage was long and he was unsure where it led; additionally, it was surrounded by formations, making it impossible for Ding Fan's Divine Sense to fully discern what was inside.

After entering the hotel, Xiao Wu and Xue Gang acted as though they had important business and opened a private room. Soon, a lobby manager led them to that room.

To Ding Fan's amazement, the lobby manager had a cultivation at least at Fifth Grade of the Human Level.

Such cultivation made him a cornerstone within any sect. From this, it was clear that the manager must also be a member of their Unit 3567.

Ding Fan followed them into the private room.

The decoration inside the private room was exceedingly luxurious, though from the outside, there appeared to be no difference.

Before Ding Fan and his group had entered, someone had already been waiting inside the room.

The person waiting was none other than Mu Wuhui.

"Young Master Ding, please forgive me," Mu Wuhui finished speaking, and the hall manager beside him immediately took a black hood and directly put it on both Ding Fan and Mei Li.

Ding Fan and Mei Li were quite cooperative, considering the secret warehouse stored Heaven and Earth Treasures. It was normal for the inspection to be strict.

At that moment, the hall manager came over, took a detector, and checked Ding Fan and Mei Li before stopping.

A moment later, a rustling, faint sound directly arose.

Ding Fan's Divine Sense was clear; the hall manager had turned a hidden stone on the wall, and then an entrance to a secret passage appeared inside the fireplace.

Several people immediately bent their bodies and entered the secret passage together.

After entering the secret passage, the mechanism outside closed again.

Ding Fan and Mei Li followed behind Elder Mu and others, continuously walking along the path, which gradually became steeper, feeling as though it was heading towards the center of the earth.

After walking for another ten minutes or so, they finally arrived inside a stone chamber about the size of a basketball court.

Along the way, Ding Fan's Divine Sense was fully alert. Although there were no sentries or guards along the way, his Divine Sense could distinctly detect that inside the secret passage, there were infrared sensors and some cameras.

Beyond that, many hidden compartments were tucked in the corners of the passage.

These compartments hid many weapons. It seemed that if someone secretly entered this passage and was discovered, they would be immediately shot dead on the spot.

Thinking of this, Ding Fan couldn't help but admire the designer's thoughtfulness.

The passage was extremely narrow, and the surveillance equipment was so precise that sneaking in undetected was impossible. Once discovered, the hidden weapons, when fired, would ensure that even Earth Level martial artists had no chance of survival.

At this moment, Xue Gang took off the black hoods from the faces of Ding Fan and Mei Li.

Ding Fan glanced around, noting the area was exceptionally clean, and the stones inside the stone chamber were neatly arranged. It seemed that just setting up this underground secret warehouse had taken a lot of thought and effort.

Then, Elder Mu walked to the side of a Mysterious Iron gate, where Xiao Wu had already taken out a key and inserted it gently into the lock. A small display on the Mysterious Iron gate then began to show a countdown.

Xiao Wu inserted the key and did not fiddle around further. Elder Mu took the key, inserted it into another keyhole below the first, and then twisted both keys simultaneously. The Mysterious Iron gate emitted a series of creaking, dull sounds.

After hearing this sound, Elder Mu then collected the keys.

As Elder Mu retrieved the keys, the hall manager beside him walked over, also pulling out a key, and directly inserted it into the lock of the gate.

After a series of twists, the Mysterious Iron gate emitted a succession of creaking sounds.

Following the grating noise, the display on the Mysterious Iron gate stopped. Subsequently, the gate slowly opened.

Mei Li, witnessing this scene, slightly furrowed her brow. Having been in the Assassin realm for many years, she was worldly.

The Mysterious Iron gate was clearly designed by a master, with three keys involved. The countdown display was likely connected to a bomb, which would explode if the gate was not opened within the set time.

If the three keys were not inserted in the correct order, it would probably also trigger an explosion.

"Young Master Ding, please..." Elder Mu then gestured to Ding Fan.

Ding Fan did not hesitate and walked boldly into the warehouse.

Ding Fan had nothing to feel shy about; first, he was in search of materials to refine the Divine Origin Pill, and second, although he had helped Elder Shen with his healing, it was not a mere act of charity—he naturally had to collect some medical fees.

Upon entering the warehouse, a thick Spiritual Energy immediately assailed his nostrils, invigorating Ding Fan. He felt deeply moved.

Cultivation resources were extremely scarce on Earth, but here in this secret stockpile, there seemed to be no small amount. It indeed was a grand gesture.

Inside the main gate, there were actually three smaller doors.

The doors were labeled. The first door read "Spiritual Materials," the second "Magic Artifacts," and the third "Ore Materials."

Ding Fan did not hesitate and directly pushed open the iron door of the first small room.

Behind the door was a small room of about one hundred square meters with racks that held various pills and dried Spirit Grasses.

Ding Fan walked from the beginning to the end of the room and did not find anything of use. The room mostly contained Wild Ginseng and Lingzhi, which were abundant; however, with a courtyard full of three-hundred-year-old Wild Ginseng in Honggang City, these items were of no use to him now.

Thus, having no alternative, Ding Fan could only proceed to the second cave....
