549: Chapter 549 You're the fool!

"Ah?" Wang Tianlong's voice turned sharp the moment he heard this. "Wang Xiue came to Yunnan Province? Mr... Mr. Ye, I had no idea!"

Ye Chen spoke indifferently, "I will give you one more chance. Do you know or not?"

Under normal circumstances, Wang Tianlong, being Wang Xiue's brother, would definitely know her whereabouts!

Wang Tianlong spoke with a crying tone, "Mr. Ye, I swear!"

"I really don't know!"

"After the last incident, we completely severed ties, and we haven't been in contact since!"

"You can ask Gongyang Shou about this!"

"That bastard has been loitering at the Wang Family, doing nothing but eating, drinking, gambling, and visiting foot massage parlors every day!"

"If I were lying, he would definitely know!"

Ye Chen thought for a moment. That old fellow, Gongyang Shou, was indeed a reliable informant. If Wang Tianlong were really up to something, Gongyang Shou wouldn't have failed to report it. Since Gongyang Shou hadn't mentioned anything, what Wang Tianlong said must be the truth.

He pondered for two seconds and said indifferently, "Fine, I'll believe you this once."

"Give you one night to find her. I will arrive tomorrow morning."

Wang Tianlong was completely terrified, his voice filled with panic, "Mr... Mr. Ye, what happened to her?"

"She wants to kill my woman."

Ye Chen's words were shocking, making Wang Tianlong feel a chill run through his entire body.

Heavens! Wang Xiue, are you fucking crazy? Isn't it just a dead husband? If he's dead, he's dead; you can just find another one. Why hang yourself on one tree?

Most importantly... that idiot husband of yours went after his people first!

Wang Tianlong's lips trembled several times before he managed to squeeze out a sentence, "Mr. Ye, perhaps there is a misunderstanding..."

"Are you saying I'm lying?" Ye Chen interrupted what he was about to say next.

Wang Tianlong broke down, "No! Please don't misunderstand! I meant there might be a misunderstanding, but I will definitely find her!"

Ye Chen didn't say anything else and hung up the phone directly.

That night, all of Yunnan Province was in an uproar.

Because... the people of the Wang Family were like madmen, flooding out in full force.

On the streets and alleys, in hotels and inns, at airports and stations, and even in remote mountain villages and wild shops, the figures of the Wang Family's disciples could be seen everywhere.

They held photos of Wang Xiue, asking house by house, not letting go of any corner.

Even... the entire underground world of Yunnan Province was thrown into chaos by this operation of the Wang Family.

Those small factions dared not speak out despite their anger.

After all... the Wang Family was deeply rooted in Yunnan Province; they could not afford to offend them.

The larger factions, however, watched coldly from the sidelines, secretly guessing in their hearts... What happened to the Wang Family that they were searching for someone so desperately?

For a time, various rumors spread throughout the streets and alleys of Yunnan Province.

The next day, early morning.

Yunnan Province, the Wang Family manor.

In the main hall, Wang Tianlong sat on a grand armchair, his face so gloomy it could drip water.

He hadn't been able to sleep for the entire night. The people he had sent out had turned the entire Yunnan Province upside down, yet Wang Xiue seemed as if she didn't exist; not even a shadow was found.

Could it be... that Mr. Ye had the wrong intelligence?

But the problem was, given Ye Chen's identity, status, and ability, such a thing was absolutely impossible!

Unless... Wang Xiue was deliberately hiding from him.

As the grand aunt of the Wang Family, she naturally understood the Wang Family's style of conduct and sphere of influence. It wouldn't be difficult for her to hide.

The more Wang Tianlong thought about it, the angrier he got. Because he hadn't expected that his own sister would ultimately embark on a path of confrontation with Ye Chen.

This was a road of no return, a dead end. He had tried to persuade her.

But Wang Xiue wouldn't listen and had directly severed ties with the Wang Family... From then on, Wang Xiue had never contacted him again.

Wang Tianlong thought she had given up, thought she had come to her senses.

But he never imagined... that not only had she not given up, but she had intensified her efforts to kill Ye Chen's woman!

Wasn't this just asking for death? Given Ye Chen's personality, if you dared to touch his woman, he would dare to exterminate your entire clan.

Wang Tianlong closed his eyes, feeling extremely troubled and restless.

Just then, a lazy voice came from the side.

"I say, Tianlong, why does your face look like you ate shit?"

Gongyang Shou sat on a chair nearby with his legs crossed, holding a cup of tea in his hand, looking at Wang Tianlong with a smile.

Ever since this old fellow was sent by Ye Chen to "assist" Wang Tianlong in destroying the Shenwu Alliance, he had been loitering at the Wang Family and refusing to leave.

Every day he ate and drank well, having delicacies for every meal, and every few days he would go to a foot massage parlor for a massage. He was living a life more comfortable than an immortal.

Wang Tianlong opened his eyes and glared at him irritably, "Shut up."

"Shut up? Why should I shut up?"

Gongyang Shou took a sip of tea and smacked his lips.

"I told you long ago that your sister is not someone to be trifled with, but you wouldn't believe me."

"Now it's done; she has provoked Mr. Ye. What do you plan to do?"

Wang Tianlong's face turned even uglier, "Gongyang Shou! That's enough! Stop making sarcastic remarks here!"

Gongyang Shou held his teacup, watching him with a smile.

"What? Did I say something wrong?"

"Your sister wants to kill his woman, and he in turn wants to kill your sister. Isn't that a matter of course?"

"If you're not convinced, you can protect her."

"Anyway, your Wang Family is large and powerful, the hegemon of Yunnan Province; are you afraid of Mr. Ye?"

These words were clearly mockery! And it was a direct, heavy hit! Who didn't know that both of them had been taught a lesson by Ye Chen and were both like stray dogs?

Wang Tianlong's face turned the color of a pig's liver, and the veins on his forehead were throbbing. Just as he was about to burst into curses, a young disciple of the Wang Family ran into the main hall.

"Master! The situation is a bit serious!"

Wang Tianlong frowned fiercely, "What is it?"

The young disciple stammered, "The... the grand aunt has brought a group of people to the door, dozens of them, they are all at the main gate!"

Both Wang Tianlong and Gongyang Shou were stunned.

Wait... the Wang Family was searching the whole world for her, and she actually showed up herself???

Upon hearing this, Wang Tianlong stood up from his grand armchair with a jolt, his expression changing repeatedly. He hadn't expected that the sister he had spent all night searching for throughout the world would actually deliver herself to his doorstep.

And... she even brought a group of people?

Gongyang Shou also put down his teacup and narrowed his eyes, "Interesting, truly interesting."

Wang Tianlong ignored his sarcastic remarks and strode out of the main hall. Gongyang Shou followed him unhurriedly, looking as if he were watching a good show.

The two passed through the front courtyard and arrived at the gate of the Wang Family mansion. They saw that on the bluestone road outside the gate, a large crowd of people stood, dark and dense. Leading them was a middle-aged woman around forty years old.

She wore a deep purple qipao, her hair coiled in the back, adorned with a jade hairpin. Her facial features were somewhat similar to Wang Tianlong's, but there was an air of sharpness and harshness between her brows. It was Wang Xiue.

Behind her stood dozens of people, all uniformly dressed in black martial attire. The few old men in the lead had deep auras, their gazes like lightning; one look was enough to tell they were not ordinary people.

Wang Tianlong's footsteps halted, his expression sinking completely, "Wang Xiue, what is the meaning of this?"

Wang Xiue stood at the gate, arms crossed, and gave a cold laugh.

"Big brother, I heard you were searching the whole world for me. Is there something the matter?"

That tone, that demeanor—did it look like siblings meeting? It was clearly enemies meeting face-to-face.

Wang Tianlong's brows knitted into a knot, "Wang Xiue, I am asking you, did you send people to kill Mr. Ye's woman?"

Wang Xiue's face suddenly became ferocious, her eyes filled with hatred.

"So what if I kill his woman?"

"He killed my husband; I want him to pay with blood!"

Wang Tianlong was trembling all over with anger, pointing his finger at Wang Xiue, his voice shaking.

"You... you are confused!"

"Do you know what you are doing?"

"Who is Mr. Ye? Can you afford to provoke him?"

Wang Xiue sneered, her chin held high.

"The one who is confused is you, big brother!"

"A boy from outside the Kunlun Ruins has scared you into acting like a grandson?"

"Are you still the Wang Tianlong I know? Are you still the head of my Wang Family?"

"You..." Wang Tianlong's face turned the color of a pig's liver, the veins on his forehead throbbing, but he was choked into silence.

Gongyang Shou stood to the side, holding a cup of tea, watching this scene with a smile, looking just like an audience member watching a grand play.

Wang Xiue's gaze passed over Wang Tianlong and landed on him, a flash of disgust appearing in her eyes.

"Gongyang Shou, you old immortal, you betrayed your own alliance, and now you are still loitering at the Wang Family?"

Gongyang Shou spoke with a smile.

"Oh my, grand aunt of the Wang Family, what you said..."

"My betrayal of my own organization is called a wise man submits to circumstances!"

"And... I'm not loitering at the Wang Family; I was sent by Mr. Ye to assist the Wang Family."

"If you're not convinced, you can go argue with Mr. Ye."

Wang Xiue's face turned even uglier. She took a deep breath, ignored Gongyang Shou, and looked back at Wang Tianlong.

"Wang Tianlong, I will give you one chance today."

Her voice was as cold as ice, and she said word by word, "Hand over the Wang Family. The Wang Family will never submit to that beast Ye Chen."

"Or else..." She paused, a flash of ruthlessness appearing in her eyes, "I will take it myself."
