Chapter 102 Big Brother, Why Do I Feel Like I'm Being Stalked by a Poisonous Snake?
"Lift a finger? Are you out of your mind? Don't you know that lately, families in Cloud City who have moved against the Ye Family have met with bad ends? If you want to die early, don't drag us into it!"
Inside the van, several men in black suits were arguing with each other.
"But the task handed down from above has today as its final deadline, doesn't it? We're supposed to test out Princess Yu's true strength. If we can't complete the task, how will we explain ourselves to the higher-ups?"
"Wait until tonight. That idiot from the Ye Family won't always be with Princess Yu. Once she's alone, that's when we'll make our move! Hurry up and follow them, don't lose track!"
The men whispered among themselves, unaware that Ye Fan in the car ahead could hear their conversation loud and clear.
Ye Fan had invited Xuan Yufei not only out of a soft heart but more importantly, because he had noticed that she was being followed.
It seemed that someone was planning harm against Xuan Yufei! .net
Although there were problems between them now, Ye Fan did not want to see anything happen to Xuan Yufei!
Hence, inviting Xuan Yufei was a way of indirectly protecting her.
At the same time, Ye Fan also wanted to find out who exactly was trying to make a move on her.
After all, on the day of the funeral, the Xuan Family had severed ties with the Ye Family, so in theory, the opponents behind the Ye Family shouldn't target the Xuan Family, right?
But if it wasn't those behind the Ye Family, who else had the Xuan Family in their sights?
Ye Fan chose a hotpot restaurant and sat with Xuan Yufei, Wang Fugui, and a few others at a window seat on the second floor. While they ate, they had a clear view of the actions of the suit-clad young men in the van below.
Although Ye Fan only glanced down casually, the young men in the van below still felt their hairs stand on end.
"Big brother, what's going on? Why do I keep feeling like someone's watching us? Like we're being targeted by a venomous snake, it's uncomfortable!" murmured one of the young men with glasses to the middle-aged man leading them. "Big brother, do you think that idiot upstairs has already spotted us?"
The middle-aged man himself was at the peak of the Grandmaster level, just shy of the Martial Venerable level.
He too was aware of that barely perceptible presence.
But now, even if she were to go back, she could only be one-eighth or maybe even one-tenth.
However, even so, Xuan Yufei had no complaints.
All the outcomes were the result of her own actions; there was nothing left to say.
...
After finishing the meal, Ye Fan insisted on taking Xuan Yufei home first. After watching her enter her room, he left with Wang Fugui.
Two minutes after Ye Fan's vehicle departed, the several black-clothed men hiding in the shadows finally appeared, muttering with annoyance, "Damn it! That fool from the Ye Family has finally left... With Wang Fugui and Ye Fan here, it really wasn't a good time to make a move! That idiot, he's not someone we can kill!"
Although the Jin Family wanted to keep the news of Jin Yang's attack on Ye Fan under wraps,
the news spread like it had wings, quickly circulating throughout Cloud City, Tiannan Province, and the Great Xia Martial Arts Circle.
The news of Jin Yang's attack on Ye Fan, Su Yixue's failure, the heavy losses of his own fleet, and the compelled compensation of one billion to Su Corporation for emotional damages,
these pieces of news seemed to be spreading inadvertently, but only those at a certain level of influence knew that someone was deliberately fanning the flames, letting the news ferment within the Martial Arts Circle.
It was a warning to others, urging everyone to be careful not to mess with Ye Fan or the Su Family, otherwise, they might end up like Jin Yang.
This time, those who moved against Xuan Yufei were just a private team within the Martial Arts Circle, Bounty Hunters, who normally took on some assignments.
They had no deep-rooted hatred with Xuan Yufei, naturally, they wouldn't be reckless with their lives!
"Make it quick, the probing is over! If there's a chance to strike it rich, seize it, if not, retreat immediately! I have a feeling that something is off tonight!" The middle-aged man instructed his subordinates, and the group swiftly climbed into Xuan Yufei's villa courtyard.
Two minutes after Ye Fan's vehicle had left, Ye Fan suddenly asked Wang Fugui to stop, "Old Wang, turn back immediately! I just remembered, I left something at Xuan Yufei's house, I need to go get it!"
Although Wang Fugui was puzzled about what Ye Fan could have left at Xuan Yufei's place, he always carried out Ye Fan's instructions without question.
"Okay!"
With that, Wang Fugui responded and immediately turned around, heading back to Xuan Yufei's residence...
