179: Chapter 171 Chapter 168: Tea Art 179: Chapter 171 Chapter 168: Tea Art Elder Dian kept silent and began to make tea seriously.

Ye Chen watched Elder Dian’s every move intently, noting that none of his actions were superfluous, and each was infused with the essence of Tai Chi.

Through Elder Dian’s movements, Ye Chen seemed to see a figure dressed in white practicing the Tai Chi Bagua movements.

It was clear that Elder Dian’s actions were the result of years of practice, which ordinary people could hardly achieve.

After a while, a pot of tea was ready.

The teapot was Elder Dian’s personal Purple Sand Teapot, accompanied by five Purple Sand Cups.

Elder Dian pinched a cup, rinsed it with boiling water, and then poured tea for Ye Chen.

Elder Dian let out a breath of turbid air and said, “Come, give it a try.”

Without hesitation, Ye Chen picked up the cup, took an initial sip, and the tea delicately slid across his tongue like a burst of fresh spring water, making him tilt his head back to drink more.

Instantly, he felt as if his whole body was immersed in that spring.

Subsequently, a boiling power surged within him, calming down only after a long while.

“How does it feel?” Elder Dian asked with a chuckle.

Ye Chen let out his breath, took a deep breath, and said, “It’s truly a miraculous work.”

“Haha, praise be, praise be!” Elder Dian laughed heartily.

After a short exchange, Elder Dian cut to the chase, still smiling as he asked Ye Chen, “Ye Chen, do you know there’s a Hidden Family in this world called the Luo Sijue family?”

“Luo Sijue?!” Ye Chen was startled and immediately shook his head, saying, “I’ve never heard of them.”

“Oh, is that so…” Elder Dian looked up at the ceiling for a while and said, “It doesn’t matter if you haven’t heard of them, but let me tell you, you have a very important connection with the Luo Sijue family.”

“Really?!” Ye Chen, hearing about his origins for the first time, seemed somewhat excited.

He eagerly asked, “Elder Dian, do you know who I used to be, what I did?

Since I lost my memory three years ago, I can’t remember anything.

Can you tell me something about my identity?”

“Haha, some things need to be revealed in due course.

If I told you everything at once, I’m afraid you might not accept it!” Elder Dian laughed and said, “But I can assure you that you have a very important connection with Luo Sijue.

Moreover, I also know that the Clan Leader of the Luo Sijue family must be aware of your current situation.

As for why he hasn’t come to find you, he must have his reasons.

So, don’t be too anxious; when the time comes, everything will become clear.”

“Ah…” Ye Chen sighed helplessly.

“Young man, don’t sigh,” Elder Dian chuckled, having weathered many storms and endured numerous hardships.

No matter how big the issue, there would be a day when it would pass.

After chatting with Elder Dian, Ye Chen finally gained some understanding of the Luo Sijue family.

The Luo Sijue family was not the only Hidden Family in the world; there were three other great Hidden Families.

These four great Hidden Families covertly controlled the world’s resources and power.

Each Hidden Family had a rule: when the Clan Leader aged, they needed to select a qualified successor from all over the world.

The struggle for succession was a fierce slaughter and persecution.

Ye Chen felt vaguely as if he had grasped some understanding, yet it eluded him, as if a fog clouded the situation before him, obscuring his vision.

When he left Elder Dian’s room, it was already ten o’clock at night.

The party was still in full swing, everyone drinking, playing, and discussing matters of great importance.

Li Ruo was anxiously waiting for Ye Chen downstairs because the race was set to start at half-past ten.

If Ye Chen didn’t show up soon, she might have to leave alone.

“Ye Chen!” As soon as Li Ruo saw Ye Chen coming downstairs, she rushed up to him, grabbed his arm, and escorted him outside.

In this haze, Li Ruo pushed Ye Chen into the passenger seat, and they sped towards Xiangming Mountain.

After a recent typhoon, the relevant authorities had refurbished the mountain, and the overall situation was still very good.

There were no obstacles on the road, and as they ascended, they encountered a “little brother” exploring the racing conditions.

Upon seeing Li Ruo’s Ferrari 599, those people immediately informed Young Master Wei via walkie-talkie.

Young Master Wei was very influential in this part of Xiangming Mountain, indulging in the joys of racing daily with his group.

Besides, Young Master Wei also managed several auto repair shops, entertainment cities, and bars in this extensive area of the mountain.

The engine of the Ferrari 599 roared, swiftly reaching the platform on Xiangming Mountain where a large crowd had already gathered.

Each race, organized by Young Master Wei, was either a challenge from others to Jianghuai City or an invitation by Young Master Wei for a race.

In any case, the joy of racing was all about speed and excitement.

“Xiao Ruo, you made it!” Young Master Wei still sported fiery red hair, several earrings, and a professional racing outfit, making him look like a professional racer.

Li Ruo turned her head, pretending not to see him.

Young Master Wei smiled awkwardly and looked at Ye Chen, saying, “Security, you’re here too?”

“Screw your security, I’ve been promoted to deputy director now!” Ye Chen adjusted the badge on his chest and said, “Open your damn eyes and see clearly!”

Pfft…

The crowd around burst into laughter, and some immediately laughed and said, “This pretty boy is really something, look how he has seduced Mr.

Li, from a mere security guard to a deputy director, tsk, his skills in bed must be quite impressive…”

Before he could finish speaking, the kid felt a flash of light before his eyes.

Then, back he went, head over heels, the back of his skull cracking against the ground hard, sending a sharp pain through his head.

In a rage, he shouted, “Damn it, who hit me?

Who the hell hit me!”

Staggering to his feet, the kid was so dizzy he could barely tell which way was up.

Flailing his fists about, Ye Chen walked over and steadied him, saying, “It was me who hit you.

Next time, try not to talk crap!”

Everyone burst into laughter at this.

The kid got furious, grabbed a wrench, and swung it at Ye Chen.

Li Ruo covered her mouth in shock, “Ye Chen, watch out!”

Ye Chen grinned, suddenly kicked backward, and landed a fierce kick in the guy’s gut, causing him to vomit out bile.

The surrounding youngsters closed in, wanting to take revenge, but Young Master Wei immediately stepped forward, waving them off, “Stop it!”

“Young Master, this guy bullied our man!” The youngsters glared at Ye Chen.

“Heh, forget it.

If anyone’s to blame, it’s Ah San for his dirty mouth!” Young Master Wei waved his hand and announced, “Break it up.

I’ll get revenge for Ah San on the race track!”

This time, the race was proposed by the son of a Hong Kong tycoon, Ahao.

Having not been satisfied with the last race, Ahao came to Jianghuai City this time, specifically asking Li Ruo to join the race.

With Young Master Wei’s invitation, Li Ruo naturally stepped forward.

“Miss Li, how about we add a bit of fun to this race?” Ahao approached with a big group, splitting into two: one led by Young Master Wei from Jianghuai City, the other by Ahao from Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan.

“How do you want to compete?” Li Ruo scoffed.

“This time, let’s have a relay race!” Ahao grinned, “Four cars each side, two laps, how about it?”

“No way!” Young Master Wei interrupted before Li Ruo could respond, “You’re well-prepared, we’re not.”

“Young Master, you’re the hosts; you have no reason to refuse our challenge!” Ahao smiled.

“What are the stakes then?” Li Ruo asked coldly.

“The stakes…,” Ahao laughed, “If we win, then Miss Li becomes my girlfriend.

Of course, as a girlfriend, she would have to fulfill her girlfriend duties.”

“And if you lose?” Li Ruo gritted her teeth in anger, feeling utterly insulted.

“How could we lose?

We won’t lose!” Ahao laughed.

“But if, by some chance, we do, then we’ll give you four luxury cars.

How about it?”

“Fine, you have a deal!” Li Ruo quickly agreed, causing Young Master Wei’s eyes to bulge in surprise, exclaiming, “Are you crazy?”

“You’re the crazy one!” Li Ruo huffed, “Young Master, today, whether we fight for the honor of Jianghuai City or for the honor of Xiangming Mountain, you have to give it your all!”

“Even if it kills me, I’m willing!” Young Master Wei was instantly fired up by Li Ruo’s spirit.

Meanwhile, Ye Chen coolly analyzed both sides’ strengths and weaknesses.

The opponents had good cars but were stupid and not familiar with the terrain, while his own side knew the terrain well, with the only drawback being inferior cars.

“Ye Chen, you’re running solo this time!” Li Ruo looked at Ye Chen seriously, “I suppose you wouldn’t want me to be taken away by them, would you?”

“Honestly, I really dislike women who are all looks and no brains!” After saying this, Ye Chen casually took a drag on his cigarette, didn’t even glance at Li Ruo, and walked away.

Li Ruo was so angry she kicked at the air behind him multiple times.

Young Master Wei approached Ye Chen, then very politely said, “Mr.

Ye, I apologize for my earlier mistakes, and this time, I hope Mr.

Ye can put in his best effort.

I believe none of us want Xiao Ruo to be humiliated, right?”
