55: Chapter 55 Temple of the God of War

"I already saw them, aren't they just a few unwashed undergarments?"

Ye Mo stood outside the door and teased her.

About five minutes later, Zhu Leyao opened the door.

"Did you really see them?" Zhu Leyao's face flushed.

"There, aren't they on the nightstand?" Ye Mo pointed to the nightstand on the left and continued, "It's normal to have been single for a long time."

"Ah, stop talking!" Zhu Leyao's little fists pounded hard against Ye Mo's chest.

"Let's talk business. How long do your parents usually take to go grocery shopping?" Ye Mo grabbed Zhu Leyao's small hand and blinked.

"The market is nearby. If they're quick, it takes half an hour; if they're slow, an hour," Zhu Leyao replied.

"That fast? I'm afraid there isn't enough time," Ye Mo shook his head slightly.

"Half an hour isn't enough? You're just bragging," Zhu Leyao said, not believing him.

"It's not enough. If I teach you to Cultivate now, I'm afraid your parents will be back before you even enter meditation. Oh, that's right, what were you referring to?" Ye Mo asked seriously.

"Ah, I'll fight you! Take my invincible girl punch..."

Zhu Leyao buried her head and attacked frantically.

After playing around for a while, they returned to the living room.

Not long after, Li Yuan called.

Ye Mo stood up to answer the phone, while Zhu Leyao picked up her phone to scroll through Douyin.

Li Yuan: "Brother Ye, I've spoken with the HR department, but you need to come in to handle the onboarding procedures and provide a bank card number."

Ye Mo: "Forget the bank card number. Are you actually planning to pay me a salary?"

Li Yuan: "It's hard to pay pension insurance without a salary."

Ye Mo: "Alright then, I'll go tomorrow."

Li Yuan: "Also, Brother Ye, the armed helicopter we discussed earlier… I'm afraid it really can't be done. I'm truly sorry."

Ye Mo: "It's fine. If you can't get it, forget it. I don't necessarily need it anyway."

Li Yuan: "Understood. Then Brother Ye, remember to go to Oriental Bay Mansion tomorrow to transfer the property deed first."

Ye Mo: "Alright, thanks."

After hanging up, Ye Mo turned around, intending to ask Zhu Leyao to go to Oriental Bay Mansion with him tomorrow so he could transfer the property directly into her name.

The reason for transferring it to Zhu Leyao was, firstly, because of property purchase restrictions.

Secondly, as there would be more and more children in the future, it would be impossible to register them all under his own household registration; the household register wouldn't even hold them all.

However, just as Ye Mo was about to speak, he saw Zhu Leyao looking at her phone with a terrified expression.

"What's wrong?" Ye Mo walked over to look.

Zhu Leyao suddenly screamed: "Ye Mo, is the person in this video you?"

Zhu Leyao happened to be scrolling through the video of Ye Mo killing Zhang Haoyu, which had been posted by a truck driver.

"Are the people from the Ninth Bureau this unreliable?"

Ye Mo was speechless, then explained it to Zhu Leyao.

Zhu Leyao was very worried; this was murder, after all. Wouldn't Ye Mo be arrested and executed?

Only after Ye Mo said he was executing a mission did Zhu Leyao feel relieved.

...The Lin family.

Butler Uncle Lian rushed to Lin Xiangqian's study and handed the phone to Lin Xiangqian.

"Zhang Haoyu actually died at the hands of Ye Mo? No, this is Fist Intent. Zhang Haoyu had reached a Breakthrough to the Heaven Level!"

When Lin Xiangqian saw Zhang Haoyu's golden fist, a look of shock appeared on his face.

"Sir, Ye Mo's background must be significant. There must be a powerful force behind him."

Ye Mo is only twenty-six, yet he was able to kill a Heaven Level expert.

This is definitely not something an ordinary person could be trained to do.

"He should be a Disciple of some Sect. However, this Zhang Haoyu also has a significant background. I'm afraid Ye Mo will have trouble after killing him."

Lin Xiangqian frowned slightly, looking thoughtful.

"Sir, Director Song thinks highly of Ye Mo and has intended to recruit him for a long time. This time, Ye Mo must have acted to help the Ninth Bureau. The Ninth Bureau cannot sit idly by."

Uncle Lian said.

"I'm just worried about others making moves in the shadows… Oh well, let's see just how much this kid is still hiding."

Ye Mo killing Zhang Haoyu was indeed beyond his expectations.

At this moment, he became even more curious about Ye Mo's identity and even gained some confidence in the beauty-preserving pill, so he asked: "How is the research on the beauty-preserving pill going?"

"There is no news from the Third Master yet," Uncle Lian shook his head.

"Notify me immediately once there is news."

...In the Heshu District, an old office building served as the base for the Yong City branch.

Although the building was old on the outside, the interior was quite luxurious.

At this moment, Director Song Bowen was furious.

"How many times have I said it? You must check the phones! Why do you always make such low-level mistakes!"

Although the comments section of Ye Mo's video claimed it was staged and used special effects.

That could only fool laypeople.

Those who know would naturally be able to tell at a glance that the video was not faked in any way.

This was the reason for Song Bowen's anger.

At this moment, the three team members all hung their heads, saying nothing.

"Liao Qing, contact Ye Mo immediately and arrange a guest consultant status for him. Zhang Haoyu's background is not simple, and now that the video has leaked, I'm afraid someone will target him."

Song Bowen shook his head, looking clearly annoyed.

It was probably too late to arrange an identity now.

He wondered whether he should report this directly to Zhonghai.

"Director, are you worried about people from the War God Temple?" Liao Qing's expression immediately sank.

"That's right. Zhang Haoyu has an older brother who broke through to the Heaven Level five years ago. If he finds out about this, he will likely come looking for Ye Mo," Song Bowen said grimly.

"Director, are we, the Ministry of State Security, not going to do anything about this? After all, Ye Mo killed Zhang Haoyu for our sake," Liao Qing's voice raised a little.

"We will definitely manage it, but it's easy to dodge an open spear, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow. If the War God Temple sends people to assassinate Ye Mo, it will be difficult for us to protect his safety with our strength. Besides, we can protect Ye Mo for a while, but not for a lifetime."

The country has an unwritten rule.

Jianghu grievances are settled in the Jianghu; as long as ordinary people are not harmed, it is fine.

Previously, the Ninth Bureau only pursued Zhang Haoyu because he killed three ordinary people. If Zhang Haoyu had died at the hands of the Ninth Bureau, it would have been justifiable, and he would have deserved it.

But it just so happened that he was killed by Ye Mo.

This became a private grievance.

If Zhang Haoyu had no background, it would be fine.

But Zhang Haoyu happened to come from the War God Temple, one of the three major overseas powers.

"Then restrict the people from the War God Temple from entering the country." Liao Qing said in a deep voice.

"How to restrict them? Can't they sneak in? Forget it, I will report to Zhonghai later. If anyone from the War God Temple enters the country, Zhonghai should send people over."

Song Bowen thought for a moment, deciding it was better to play it safe.

Ye Mo saved his life back then, after all; he couldn't just watch Ye Mo get killed.

Moreover, as long as Ye Mo joins the Ninth Bureau now, with this status, whoever comes will have to be cautious.

"Director, in my opinion, if any expert comes to Yong City to kill Ye Mo, no matter who it is, our Ninth Bureau should take action directly."

Captain Yang Ding said with Killing Intent.

"Put away your already meager intelligence. Take action directly? Do you want to cause turmoil throughout the entire Jianghu?"
