Chapter 120 - 120 120 The Invitation of Martial Arts Heavenly Mansion
120: Chapter 120: The Invitation of Martial Arts Heavenly Mansion 120: Chapter 120: The Invitation of Martial Arts Heavenly Mansion Three days had passed in the blink of an eye.
Ye Xuan’s return to the Capital City spread swiftly and was also known by some transcendent forces,
However, in this new world, with the emergence of strong global powers, Ye Xuan’s achievement of defeating Li Huantian did not attract much attention amidst the brilliance of these stronger individuals.
After all, the terror of the Blood Soul Strange Beasts had deeply penetrated the hearts of people, and when global powers burst forth with terrifying strength, taking to various places to battle these horrifying creatures, some opportunistically helped spread this through videos uploaded online for all humanity to watch, thereby making these mighty individuals well-known to the world.
In chaotic times!
Strength is what people worship.
Undoubtedly, these global powers were the hope of mankind, and under their dazzling light, Ye Xuan’s fame did pale in comparison.
Capital City, a quadrangle dwelling, the residence of Ye Xuan.
It must be said, the Wu’an Office’s efficiency was extremely high.
In just three days, under the leadership of Tian Yu and the assistance of the seven group leaders, a series of clues were laid out in front of Ye Xuan.
“Mr.
Ye, after our relentless investigation, the true mastermind behind this seems to be a foreign male who has constantly been wearing a Ghost Face Mask, covertly lurking within Xia Country,”
Tian Yu pushed a photo toward Ye Xuan, in which there was clearly a man wearing a Ghost Face Mask, but the photo was somewhat blurred, apparently due to significant shaking during the capture.
Although Ye Xuan had a hunch that this matter might have been done by the man with the Ghost Face Mask, when he saw the photo before him, he was finally certain.
After all, the man who could produce so many high-tech weapons, when looking across the entire Capital City, could only be the one with the Ghost Face Mask.
However, what Ye Xuan didn’t expect was that after the incident with the Nangong Family, the man with the Ghost Face Mask had not left Xia Country.
Instead, he had been hiding in the Capital City and had even dared to attack his relatives half a year ago.
“Where is the person who took this photo now, and is his true identity known?” Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Tian Yu shook his head with a bitter smile, “The person who took the photo is already dead.
When our people got there, the place was deserted, but they did find a large number of high-tech weapons.”
“So, does that mean we still have no clues?” Ye Xuan frowned.
Seeing Ye Xuan’s obviously dissatisfied expression, Tian Yu tensed up and quickly explained, “Even though this person is dead, we have found a major clue.”
“That is, all these high-tech weapons were smuggled from abroad.
To secretly transport such a large quantity of weapons to the Capital City, the man with the Ghost Face Mask must be someone of significance.”
“You mean to say that the public identity of this man with the Ghost Face Mask is that of an international businessman, and that’s how he has the ability to bring these weapons into the Capital City?” Ye Xuan said.
“Exactly, and based on this clue, we have investigated dozens of well-known foreign businessmen in the Capital City.
Here is all the information and background on them,”
Tian Yu quickly pushed a folder to Ye Xuan; each page had a photo of a foreign male, prompting Ye Xuan to start flipping through.
A full hour passed by, and when Ye Xuan closed the folder, a cold light flashed through his eyes as he opened and closed them, and he fell deep into thought.
“Mr.
Ye, although these foreign businessmen are all highly suspect, every one of them has a complex identity.
If we were to privately detain them, it would certainly lead to a great deal of public criticism,” Tian Yu said cautiously.
Knock, knock, knock!
A series of knocks sounded, and in walked a chubby man at a brisk pace, holding a gold invitation in his hand.
He bowed and said, “Sir, Martial Arts Heavenly Mansion has sent an invitation, asking you to attend a charity banquet tomorrow.”
“I don’t have time.”
As Ye Xuan made his refusal known, the chubby man’s face twitched in surprise, and he spoke in a tentative whisper, “Sir, the Martial Arts Heavenly Mansion wields immense power and was founded by the Heavenly Blade God himself.
Might you reconsider…”
“Hmm?”
Ye Xuan’s brow furrowed, immediately silencing the chubby man, who hurriedly turned and left.
It was obvious that he had perceived Ye Xuan’s dissatisfaction; any further prattling would surely have resulted in a reprimand from Ye Xuan.
“Mr.
Ye, the Martial Arts Heavenly Mansion is thriving, seemingly poised to surpass the Wu’an Office.
By not giving face to Martial Arts Heavenly Mansion, I’m afraid the Heavenly Blade God…” Tian Yu began to speak but hesitated, clearly probing.
“These matters are not your concern.” Ye Xuan let out a cold laugh, causing Tian Yu’s face to turn awkward, after which he remained silent.
Tap—Tap—Tap!
Ye Xuan’s fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, filling the air with a rhythmic sound.
After more than a dozen breaths, he paused his tapping and looked up at Tian Yu.
“Organize a business dinner in the name of the Wu’an Office.
Invite these foreign merchants to come.
I want to meet them myself.”
“Yes, Mr.
Ye.”
Tian Yu bowed in acknowledgment and then took his leave.
From beginning to end, he maintained a respectful demeanor.
It was evident from this that Ye Xuan had become the foremost person in the Wu’an Office, with no one daring to defy his orders.
Following Tian Yu’s departure, Ye Xuan’s expression turned dark.
The fact that the man in the Ghost Face Mask had dared to lay a hand on his relative had sealed his fate in Ye Xuan’s eyes.
Crack!
Suddenly, as Ye Xuan was deep in thought, a sound of jade breaking from outside was accompanied by a voice filled with utter disdain.
This caused Ye Xuan’s expression to grow even darker.
“Don’t think that just because your master has defeated Li Huantian, you’re truly invincible.
In front of our Martial Arts Heavenly Mansion, no one dares to refuse our invitation.”
Within the courtyard,
a haughty young man loudly berated the chubby man, while the chubby man smiled obsequiously, nodding and bowing incessantly.
Meanwhile, the Death God’s personal guards looked on with cold detachment, not expressing any opinion.
Creak!
The door opened and Ye Xuan walked out.
Upon seeing Ye Xuan emerge, the young man didn’t show any sign of respect but instead sneered contemptuously, “So this is Mr.
Ye?
You do have quite the nerve, refusing an invitation from Martial Arts Heavenly Mansion.
Don’t you know who founded it?”
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan simply ignored him.
With a slightly icy countenance, he said, “Chubby, if you can’t even handle this, what use do I have for you?”
After finishing his statement, Ye Xuan turned and headed back into the house, leaving the chubby man’s face to contort dramatically.
His normally sycophantic face instantly turned sinister, and the look in his eyes when he gazed at the young man was filled with venomous malice.
Watching Ye Xuan disregard him completely, the young man felt as though he had suffered a great insult and bellowed, “Hey, I’m talking to you, are you deaf?”
Bang!
A muffled crash, and the sound of breaking bones.
Before the young man could react, he was flung through the air like a kite with a severed string, spewing a torrent of fresh blood from his mouth, completely unconscious on the ground.
The chubby man’s face was filled with cruelty as he instructed the Death God’s personal guards, “Break his limbs, cripple his cultivation, and throw him out.”
“Yes, leader,” the Death God’s personal guards answered with a ferocious smile, taking their leave to carry out the order.
Inside the house!
Ye Xuan sat cross-legged, breathing in and out.
Strands of blood qi could be seen flowing in and out of his nostrils as he deeply immersed himself in his cultivation.
As for the so-called Martial Arts Heavenly Mansion, how could Ye Xuan ever consider them worth his attention?
