"Are all the classmates here?" Ye Fan glanced at Qi Jun and noticed the aura on his body, his brows furrowed involuntarily!
Gu worm aura?
Had Qi Jun allied with the people from the Gu Sect?
For a long time before, Ye Fan had received news that the Ye Family's adversaries had already contacted the Gu Sect's experts, planning to secretly strike against him and his grandfather. Was it finally happening now?
Once he understood what was really going on behind today's class reunion, everything instantly became clear in Ye Fan's mind.
The Miaojiang Gu Cult, those terrifying Poison Gus, killing without a trace... in the eyes of others, they were an utterly horrifying force. Once those Poison Gus entered one's body, even an expert at the Martial Venerable Realm could have their brains devoured clean, but Ye Fan was not afraid!
Because among the legacies of the Tianji Pavilion, there was a supreme treasure of the Gu Sect... the Myriad Gu Cauldron!
That most sacred object of the Gu Sect, which was also the source of all Gu worms.
All of the Gu Sect's Poison Gus originated from the Myriad Gu Cauldron, which contained a golden Gu Emperor that could command all Poison Gus and Gu Masters, an authority even more potent than the Gu Sect leader himself.
Once the Gu Emperor emerged, all Poison Gus would have to submit!
Today, Ye Fan wanted to see who exactly was pulling the strings behind Qi Jun and the others.
The Ye Family's adversaries who had placed their undercover agents in Cloud City, this should be the last batch, right? After dealing with this, his grandfather should set off for the Capital, and Ye Fan should also continue his investigation into the truth in the Provincial City!
"They're all here, in the private room upstairs! Ye Fan, after so many years, I didn't expect you'd be in such a serious car accident and turned into...sigh..." Qi Jun was a rich second generation after all. Although initially intimidated by Ye Fan's demeanor, he swiftly regained composure and, while leading Ye Fan towards the private room, probed tentatively.
"I turned into a fool? Who says I'm a fool? I'm clearly not a fool at all!"
Slap!
As Ye Fan argued, he simultaneously raised his hand and slapped Qi Jun across the face, "Wife Ruolan and Yixue said whoever calls me a fool gets slapped!"
"Ah... I..." Qi Jun staggered from the slap, almost crashing into the wall, verging on frustration, "Ye Fan, I was just concerned about you... you... motherf..."
Qi Jun stopped mid-sentence, suddenly deflating.
Was he crazy, arguing with a fool?
Today, Qi Jun's main task was to bring Ye Fan here, and afterwards, people from Young Master Jin and Young Master Zhou would take action.
So this time, Jin Yang hid directly in the room, hoping no one would target him again, right?
But this Ye Fan, although he had become a fool, his martial skills were still so strong; now that even the Gu Sect's people couldn't do anything to him, how were they going to kill him?
"Elder Ling, could there be something wrong with your Poison Gu?" Jin Yang's brows were knitted tightly, Elder Zhang gave him such great authority this time, even allowing him to mobilize all the undercover forces in Tiannan Province, and Young Master Zhou came personally to supervise the battle. If they couldn't show some results, it would be hard to explain to Elder Zhang and Young Master Zhou.
"Impossible! It wasn't just me who took action; our Young Master did too... Both of our Poison Gu cannot penetrate Ye Fan's body!" Ling Yun's expression grew graver, if direct invasion wouldn't work, then they could only hope that Qi Jun and his team would tamper with the drinks.
Jin Yang nodded, instructing a few subordinates disguised as waiters, "Later, work with Qi Jun to make sure Ye Fan and Qing Ruolan drink the beverages they have prepared!"
"Understood!"
...
Inside the private room, when Ye Fan and Qing Ruolan arrived, there were already about three tables seated.
Seeing Ye Fan's arrival, nearly everyone stood up, warmly welcoming him.
"Young Master Ye is as handsome as ever!"
"Sister-in-law is so beautiful, congratulations to Young Master Ye!"
Most of the classmates harbored great goodwill, enthusiastically greeting Ye Fan and Qing Ruolan.
Qing Ruolan, following close by Ye Fan's side, started to feel a little embarrassed.
But today's class reunion was essentially the trap Qi Jun had laid, the feast at Hongmen, so it definitely wouldn't go smoothly.
Seizing the moment when the conversation among the classmates lulled, Wang Tao, Qi Jun's lackey, spoke up, "Sister-in-law Ruolan, I remember that before, Sister-in-law Ruolan was the wife of the Ye Family's Liu Lang, right? Hehe, now having married Ye Fan as well, what does it feel like to serve two brothers at the same time? Why not share with everyone, Sister-in-law Ruolan?"
Qing Ruolan and Yu Linglong, along with the seven sisters-in-law, had announced their marriage to Ye Fan at the funeral; this was common knowledge to everyone.
Moreover, the main purpose of those seven sisters-in-law in marrying Ye Fan was to protect the Ye Family, which was also clear to everyone.
However, everyone tactfully refrained from bringing up the subject, yet Wang Tao had not hesitated to raise the most pointed question, openly challenging and provoking Ye Fan...
Of course, this was also the mission given by Young Master Zhou to deliberately create conflict, to probe into what exactly the situation with Ye Fan was!
