Chapter 204: Chapter 204: The Ye Family Calls

After hearing so much from He Jinzhou, Qin Chuan had finally completely understood the mode of the Ye Family’s inheritance struggle.

Even with the Xuan Wu Order in his hands, it had no value unless the Ye Family granted the token the authority to appoint any candidate as the Xuan Wu Envoy.

But clearly, Qin Chuan couldn’t do that.

After a moment of silence, Qin Chuan said, "In that case, I might as well give this Xuan Wu Order to Ye Qingwan. It should be of great help to her, right?"

However, He Jinzhou shook his head, speaking gravely, "Although the Ye Family supports internal strife, they prohibit internal killings. Once it’s investigated, the lightest punishment is expulsion from the Ye Family; the heaviest is death!"

"The same applies to the forces under the Ye Family’s banner. As the White Tiger Envoy, yet you killed the Xuan Wu Envoy."

"According to the Ye Family’s rules, this is a capital offense!"

Qin Chuan frowned, "Does this mean that I can only stand in opposition to the Ye Family now?"

He Jinzhou nodded, "As much as I don’t want to admit it, that is indeed the case. Once the Ye Family finds the evidence of you killing Xuan Qing, the Ye Family’s law enforcement hall will inevitably act against you."

"For you, the most important thing now is to erase the evidence that you killed Xuan Qing. Zhang Longwang and Hua Xiong are already dead, and Xuan Qing is dead too. The Song Family won’t harm you; it’s only those Jiangcheng City Black Dragon Commerce Guild martial artists who were let go that might reveal the truth."

Qin Chuan finally realized how great the trouble was this time. Although he did not fear the Ye Family, the Song Family was by no means a match for the Ye Family.

Even if the Ye Family, due to concerns for their reputation, would not destroy the Song Family, they would certainly not let them off easily.

"What a hassle!"

Suddenly, Qin Chuan said, then he looked at He Jinzhou and continued, "If the Ye Family decides to suppress this issue, so be it. Otherwise, I don’t mind making a personal visit to the Ye Family!"

He Jinzhou’s body shuddered, and he quickly said, "My dear ancestor, please don’t go to the Ye Family, otherwise you’ll really stir up heaven itself."

He could not imagine how terrible things could become if Qin Chuan personally visited the Ye Family.

In his view, Qin Chuan was a King Realm Strong, but the Ye Family also had multiple King Realm Strong individuals.

If a great battle were to break out between the two sides, with Qin Chuan’s relationship with Ye Qingwan, she would definitely protect Qin Chuan.

Ye Tiannan and Ye Tiancheng were already on opposing sides, and with Xuan Qing having died at the hands of Qin Chuan, if Ye Qingwan protected Qin Chuan, it would surely ignite conflict between the two leading candidates for succession within the Ye Family.

Suddenly, Qin Chuan said, "I need you to look into something for me!"

He Jinzhou’s expression was bitter; he truly did not dare to help Qin Chuan at this point, but he also knew that he had no way to refuse.

He Jinzhou said, "Tell me!"

Qin Chuan said, "Find out about Ye Qingwan’s current situation as soon as possible for me."

He Jinzhou heaved a sigh of relief in secret. If it was only such a small matter, it could be easily handled.

"Give me ten minutes!"

After speaking, He Jinzhou began making calls.

Meanwhile, Qin Chuan was waiting on the side, his heart indeed filled with some unease.

Previously, when Xuan Qing was threatening and tempting He Jinzhou, he had mentioned that Ye Qingwan was placed under house arrest, and the whereabouts of Ye Tiannan were also unknown.

He could ignore the life and death of Ye Tiannan, but he couldn’t ignore Ye Qingwan’s.

No matter what, Ye Qingwan also raised Xiao Rou for five years. What would happen to Xiao Rou if something happened to her?

After several phone calls, He Jinzhou said with a grave face, "Miss has gone missing shortly after arriving in Yandu, and it’s highly likely that she has been put under house arrest by Ye Tiancheng."

"The situation with the Second Master is very grim, and even the Saintly Hand from the National Medical Hall, who’s most skilled at treating gunshot wounds, is powerless to help. They say he won’t survive tonight!"

Qin Chuan’s gaze immediately darkened.

Before Ye Qingwan returned to Yandu, he had given her a Minor Rejuvenation Pill that could sustain Ye Tiannan’s life for three days.

But Ye Qingwan has disappeared now.

Previously, Xuan Qing had mentioned that Ye Qingwan was placed under soft imprisonment, and it now seems to be true.

"What should we do?"

He Jinzhou became incredibly panicked, for he was already a supporter of Ye Tiannan, yet the National Medical Saint Hand said Ye Tiannan would not survive the night.

Once Ye Tiannan died, Ye Tiancheng definitely wouldn’t let him off easily.

Qin Chuan didn’t say a word, but his heart was struggling.

According to his plan, he would not step into Yandu until he had fully recovered his memory.

Yandu was a place with the highest concentration of top experts in Shen Zhou, and any commotion there could greatly increase the chances of being discovered by a strong practitioner from Kunlun Divine Prison.

Even at his peak, he had almost been killed by a strong practitioner from the Kunlun Divine Prison, let alone now.

But with Ye Qingwan under soft imprisonment, there was no way to get the Minor Rejuvenation Pill to Ye Tiannan.

And Ye Tiannan’s injuries were clearly very grave, so severe that even the top medical expert in Shen Zhou, the Saintly Hand, had said he wouldn’t survive the night.

It could be said that under the heavens, only he could save Ye Tiannan.

However, he had just killed Xuan Qing, and it wouldn’t be long before this news would reach the Ye Family.

Even if the Ye Family didn’t know it was he who had killed Xuan Qing, they might not necessarily allow him to treat Ye Tiannan.

As he was caught between a rock and a hard place, his cellphone suddenly rang—it was a call from Ye Qingwan.

Qin Chuan was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly answered, "Qingwan, are you alright?"

However, there was no response from Ye Qingwan, but instead an aged voice said, "Are you Qin Chuan?"

"Who are you?"

Qin Chuan’s expression instantly darkened.

The other party said, "I am Ye Tiancheng!"

Qin Chuan’s face froze, he never expected that Ye Tiancheng would make a call to him.

Clearly, Ye Qingwan was in the hands of the other party.

"Your killing of Xuan Qing was a real surprise to me."

The sudden statement shocked Qin Chuan—had Ye Tiancheng found out so quickly?

"I don’t care whether you killed Xuan Qing with your own strength or with some unknown method; it doesn’t matter anymore."

"Now, I’m giving you a choice. As long as you agree, from today onward, you will still be the White Tiger Envoy of the Black Dragon Commerce Guild."

"Not only that, but once I become the heir of the Ye Family, the position of the guild’s president will be vacant. Then, I will appoint you to be the president."

Ye Tiancheng’s tone was very calm, seemingly negotiating, but beneath that calm, he was clearly issuing a command.

"Young man, I know you have a very good relationship with Ye Qingwan, but I must remind you, ’Those who see the wind are wise.’"

After saying this, Ye Tiancheng stopped, apparently waiting for Qin Chuan’s response.

Qin Chuan frowned and asked coldly, "Are you threatening me?"

Ye Tiancheng suddenly chuckled calmly and said, "You are not yet worthy of being threatened by me."

"I merely value talent and can’t bear to see such a promising youth pay with his life for making the wrong choice."

"Next, you don’t need to say any more, just tell me whether you are willing to accept my proposal."
