Pfft!


    Tang Zheng felt as if a knife was ruthlessly plunged into his heart!


    On purpose!


    Ye Changfeng was definitely doing it on purpose!


    "Elder Ye, you must be joking! It''s just a prank those young people played, please don''t take it seriously..." Although Tang Zheng wished a thousand times over in his heart that he could kill Ye Changfeng, as long as Ye Changfeng was still alive, in all of Great Xia, no Elder, including those of the royal family, dared to act brazenly in front of Elder Ye.


    "No! I''m serious this time, I''ll be waiting for you to come to my house to scrub the toilet! Otherwise, I''ll also release a video, claiming that you, Tang Zheng, are untrustworthy, a shameless cur... Haha..." Ye Changfeng laughed especially heartily over the phone, "Also, those eight wolf dogs are really fierce in combat, and your grandson has an exceptional constitution, if your grandson has another son, it should surely be a son of a bitch, haha!"


    Just before hanging up the phone, Ye Changfeng did not forget to plunge a knife fiercely into Tang Zheng''s heart once more.


    Pfft!


    Ahhh!


    Tang Zheng was nearly driven insane with rage, defeated by his own grandson and his great-grandson bullied by a pack of wolves.


    Where could the Tang Family and Shen Family put their faces?


    The key issue was, such an incident would definitely have a domino effect.


    As one of the Nine Great Elders, representing the face of Great Xia, it seemed likely that the royal family, under public opinion pressure, would also take action against him, right?


    Smack!


    Out of fury, Tang Zheng suddenly smashed his phone on the ground, shattering it, "Ye Fan, Ye Changfeng, you two dog bastards, I swear I will send you to the Western Paradise!"


    Tang Zheng and the others had never expected that because of a fleeting thought at that time, not taking action against Ye Fan and Ye Changfeng would cause them such troubles now!


    Before Tang Zheng''s fury could subside, another call came in from a subordinate on the other end. "Elder Tang, there is a call from the royal family!"


    "Elder Tang, you''ve seen the situation online. As one of the Nine Great Elders, you''ve suffered a loss of face, dishonoring the majesty of the Royal Family! We''ve just had an internal discussion within the royal family, and given the current focus of public opinion, we advise you to lay low for now. So we''ve decided to temporarily suspend your Elder position, and you should rest at home for a while!"


    The official of the royal family personally made the call, not to discuss, but to issue a direct command.


    Just as Ye Fan stepped out of the gate, he suddenly received a secret report from Wandering Soul Captain Niu Er, "Young Master Ye, our Wandering Soul''s intelligence department just received news that the Second Young Master of the Ye Family is being chased, the last stop of his flight was a slum area in the Southern Suburb of Flower Capital; he had a brief stay there! But the exact location is still under investigation, and moreover, according to what we know, the Ye Family''s archenemies have also been searching the slums lately, seemingly looking for something..."


    The slums of the Southern Suburb of Flower Capital?


    Looking for what?


    A shiver went down Ye Fan''s spine, and he immediately thought of the map fragment from his grandfather''s second brother.


    Those archenemies of the Ye Family had gone to great lengths against the Ye Family, partly because of the Ye Family''s strong influence, but more importantly, they were after the map.


    So, what they were looking for must be the map fragment!


    The Ye Family disciples had been getting killed for a long time now, and they certainly should have checked all the places where the second brother lived and battled; since the slums were the last stop, there''s a very high chance that clues to the map were in the slums.


    There was no time to delay, he was already in Flower Capital, and he needed to hurry and explore.


    "Wife Ruolan, you go home first! I need to meet a few old friends and will come to find you later!" Ye Fan turned and called out to Qing Ruolan.


    "Okay! Xiao Fan... I''ll wait for you to come back tonight!" A hint of shyness appeared on Qing Ruolan''s face, "Thank you for today, and tonight... I have a surprise for you!"


    Before returning from Cloud City, Qing Ruolan had made up her mind to become Ye Fan''s woman as soon as possible.


    And after what had happened today, Qing Ruolan was even more resolute in her decision.


    Ye Fan''s periods of wakefulness were getting longer, and the combat strength, strategy, and methods he displayed... all were monstrously exceptional.


    The monstrous genius from five years ago was back, and she had made the right decision to marry Ye Fan.

    The key was that every time she had close contact with Ye Fan, she could receive that mysterious warmth, which significantly enhanced her strength!


    If she became Ye Fan''s woman, she might be able to advance directly to the Grandmaster Realm.


    By then, she would have the ability to protect herself and wouldn''t be just a vase by Ye Fan''s side!


    However, the thought of her former identity and the prospect of being so intimate with Ye Fan that night... If Ye Fan was in a foolish state, Qing Ruolan would not mind, but if he suddenly woke up in the middle of it, she would be mortified to the extreme...
