172: Ye Fan’s origin!

Chapter 172: Ye Fan's Origins!

"You little brat, what serious business could you possibly be doing all day?"

Huang Tianhe completely disbelieved Huang Yu's statement.

"I want to ask about Yuhan's engagement," Huang Yu slowly raised his head, a glint flashing in his eyes, and posed the question.

"How did you know about Yuhan's engagement?" Huang Tianhe was slightly taken aback, not expecting him to ask this question.

After all, this matter had passed a long time ago.

"My engagement?" At this moment, Huang Yuhan, who was outside the door, froze upon hearing this, and began to stand by the door, listening intently.

She had rushed over, wanting to see her brother after learning of his return.

She never expected to hear such explosive news.

[Damn it, I thought having a Xiao Zhan was annoying enough, but now there's another Ye Fan.]

[If my sister really marries this kind of person, won't she be ruined?]

[I absolutely cannot let Yuhan marry him!]

[I hope the White-haired one can be more effective and prevent that guy from arriving so quickly.]

Ye Fan, who is that? Huang Yuhan was slightly stunned; she didn't recognize this person, so how could she have an engagement with him?

"Huang Yu, this matter..." Huang Tianhe's tone paused, then he sighed.

"This matter has passed for a long time; it's better you don't know."

"It was all arranged by the older generation, and now it probably isn't necessary anymore."

Huang Yu, however, directly interrupted his father.

"This matter isn't as simple as you think. If you don't tell me, Yuhan might be pushed into a pit of fire by you!"

"What does that mean?" Huang Tianhe was somewhat stunned.

"That guy named Ye Fan has already come knocking!"

"What did you say?" At the mention of Ye Fan's name, Huang Tianhe suddenly stood up. "Those two old geezers are still alive!"

Old geezers? Hearing his father's furious reaction, Huang Yu was also taken aback. He had originally intended to persuade his father not to marry Yuhan to that Protagonist of Destiny.

If that were the case, wouldn't he, as a villain, be destined to be cannon fodder?

He had been wondering how to stir up hatred, but now it seemed they already had a feud?

"You know them?" Huang Yu hastily added.

"Of course I know them. I'd recognize them even if they were turned to ash!" Huang Tianhe sneered, then began to recall past events.

Back then, when he went to the northwest region to guard the border for the Dragon Kingdom, he coincidentally encountered local unrest. Due to insufficient local support, they fell into a bitter struggle.

But help couldn't arrive immediately.

So, at this time, he had no choice but to invite some extraordinary individuals to intervene.

Among them were Wang Feng, known as the 'Proud Divine Sword,' and He Ku, acclaimed as having peerless medical skills.

However, after securing their benefits, these two did not help him suppress the rebellion as agreed. Instead, they secretly colluded with the enemy, playing both sides to gain greater profits.

This resulted in heavy losses for him.

Even so, Huang Tianhe knew that now was absolutely not the time to turn hostile. To suppress the local rebellion, he could only falsely claim that the central government had already dispatched a large army.

It was under such circumstances that these two finally felt fear, and then swore wholeheartedly that they had not betrayed him and were willing to help him with all their might.

But Huang Tianhe absolutely did not believe such lies.

However, as it was the time when help was most needed, he could not refuse.

But these two took the opportunity to propose a condition.

That was to have the child they brought with them marry the current Huang Yuhan in the future.

In other words, to arrange a childhood engagement.

Although Huang Yuhan's father's position was not high, he was on good terms with many people.

He had saved countless lives in that great war, which resulted in many people owing him favors.

All of these favors would fall upon Huang Yuhan.

It could be said that Huang Yuhan garnered the attention of nearly half of the military's high-ranking officials.

This was also why Huang Tianhe had doted on his daughter so much since childhood—not only because of the love he poured into her, but also because of the attention from others.

If this girl were to suffer even a little grievance, he would undoubtedly be severely reprimanded.

Fortunately, even so, this daughter had always been well-behaved since childhood, with no particularly bad qualities.

Except for excessively shielding her brother.

After hearing his father recount these events, Huang Yu's expression gradually became solemn.

If that was the case, then the two people behind Ye Fan were likely the true masterminds behind everything.

However, as the Protagonist of Destiny, Ye Fan must have learned the most powerful skills from these two and would be able to surpass them.

"What kind of methods do those two possess?" Huang Yu continued to ask. Regarding Ye Fan, he naturally wanted to learn as much as he could, as this was the only way to effectively deal with him.

Xiao Zhan's death made him realize that these Protagonists of Destiny were not omnipotent.

Yes, Xiao Zhan was dead, having died in prison.

And everyone, from the very first investigation, found no results, until the Head of the Mo Family arrived and noticed a clue.

Xiao Zhan had died of poisoning.

But only this conclusion could be drawn; beyond that, there were no further clues.

But Huang Yu would not let this matter go so easily.

After all, who was Xiao Zhan? He was the Dragon King of the Dragon King Palace and a Protagonist of Destiny; how could he die so easily?

All the clues pointed to Ye Fan as the only possible culprit.

Half an hour later, Huang Yu left his home.

After hearing everything his father said, he had a pretty good understanding.

Not only did those two make his father hate them, but a group of military bigwigs in Yandu and Tianhai City also held extreme dissatisfaction towards them.

If those two dared to show up, they would probably be instantly pulverized.

This should also be why those two old geezers didn't dare to appear, wanting to use Ye Fan to secure Huang Yuhan, eliminate everyone's hatred, and bind these two juniors tightly together.

"But since I've figured it out, it won't be that easy," Huang Yu sneered, then directly pulled out his phone.

"There's no need to keep any of those people from the Dragon King Palace; get rid of Xuanwu too."

Because Xiao Zhan was now dead, he was no longer of any use.

As for Nalan Yanran, who was held captive in the villa, that could be discussed later.

"How is Ye Fan doing?" Upon hearing his question, the excited voice of the White-haired one came from the other end of the phone.

However, after their intervention, Ye Fan not only lost all the prize money he had received from the police station but was also severely beaten.

He was covered in injuries and spent half a day wandering the medicinal herb market.

No matter what medicinal herbs he saw, they were all intercepted first by the people they had arranged.
