Chapter 332: Killing Intent from the Imperial Capital
"Sis, who is Ye Fan exactly, and how come he made the world-class Chris Family bow and scrape just by showing a ring?"
After Young Master Justin and the negotiator had left immediately, Xu Haoran couldn't hold back his curiosity any longer and asked. Your next journey awaits at My Virtual Library Empire
Xu Ruoxuan, with a serious expression said, "I don't know the details, but I'm aware that Ye Fan has a mysterious background and is extraordinary! Haoran, remember, you must keep everything that happened today to yourself, especially Young Master Justin's unusual reaction to that ring!"
"Sis, I'm not a fool, don't worry, I definitely won't talk about it!" Xu Haoran patted his chest as he assured her.
Thinking back to his previous disdain for Ye Fan, Xu Haoran's face turned red with embarrassment, knowing that he had misjudged the situation and that Ye Fan was far more impressive than he had imagined.
How many people in the world could make a world-class tycoon bow and scrape and call themselves servants?
This time, the shock Ye Fan brought to Xu Haoran was unprecedented. From then on, he dared not show any disrespect to Ye Fan and finally understood why his sister, Xu Ruoxuan, had an ambiguous relationship with Ye Fan and had even risked offending the Zheng family of Jinling's Young Master, Zheng Shuheng, to offer the exhibition hall in the Silver Base Tower to Su Zhanyun for free.
It all became clear to him after seeing Young Master Justin's extreme reaction.
Xu Ruoxuan was also immensely shocked, never having imagined that Ye Fan could wield such tremendous influence.
Looking at the time, it was already nine in the morning.
Xu Ruoxuan found Ye Fan's phone number, hesitated for a moment, but still decided to make the call.
At this moment Ye Fan had just dropped Ling'er off at school and was on his way back when he saw Xu Ruoxuan's incoming call, he wondered, "Why is Xu Ruoxuan calling me at this hour? Could it be that the Chris Family deal hasn't gone through? That shouldn't be the case, I've given them my personal token!"
"Miss Xu, what's so important to call me early in the morning?" Ye Fan eventually picked up the phone.
Teasingly, Xu Ruoxuan said, "Tsk, Mr. Ye, you really keep a low profile! I've always felt you were not simple, but it turns out I had only seen the tip of the iceberg. Tell me, Mr. Ye, who exactly are you to make the Chris Family even call themselves your servants?"
"Servants?"
Ye Fan was taken aback, then he chuckled lightly, "Those are just old stories from years ago, it's not worth mentioning!"
Back when he left the mountains to travel, he happened to be near the Chris Family overseas, and unexpectedly, that night the Chris Family was attacked by three world-class tycoons. The Chris Family was breached, and Patriarch David was fleeing with his last son, Justin, when they came to the Lanyin River Bank.
Ye Fan was night fishing at the Rhein River Bank at the time when those from the three world-class tycoons mistook him for an ally of David and Justin and wanted to kill him as well.
Ye Fan became enraged and killed all the pursuers from the three world-class families in less than ten minutes. Afterwards, he was moved by Patriarch David and helped the Chris Family wipe out the three malicious world-class tycoons within three days.
Unexpectedly, Patriarch David was so grateful that he insisted on becoming Ye Fan's servant. Ye Fan didn't think much of it at the time, not expecting that the Chris Family would still be insisting on this.
"Mr. Ye indeed is no ordinary man!" There was a sparkle in Xu Ruoxuan's eyes.
Ye Fan joked, "It seems Miss Xu is in a good mood. If I'm not mistaken, Miss Xu must have secured the Chris Family by now? If that's the case, I've repaid one of my debts to Miss Xu!"
"You're right, Mr. Ye, we have indeed secured the Chris Family, and it's all thanks to Mr. Ye. I've always said that a favor from Mr. Ye is very valuable!" Xu Ruoxuan smiled meaningfully.
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan laughed, "That's great! Miss Xu, I'm riding an electric bike right now, so I won't talk any longer!"
"Alright, in any case, I truly need to thank Mr. Ye for today!" Xu Ruoxuan expressed her heartfelt gratitude.
"You're welcome! If you need anything, just let me know, since I still owe you two favors!"
Ye Fan laughed heartily and then hung up the phone and continued to ride his electric bike towards the Century Sky City Villa Complex.
"Sis, how did it go?"
Seeing his sister Xu Ruoxuan finish the call with Ye Fan, Xu Haoran couldn't contain his curiosity and asked.
Xu Ruoxuan replied gravely, "Ye Fan is very secretive, truly a hidden dragon. Haoran, if you have the chance, try to interact more with Ye Fan. Getting closer to him might not make our Xu Family soar to great heights overnight, but I can assure you, befriending Ye Fan will guarantee our family's security for decades to come!"
"Yes, Sister, I understand!" Xu Haoran responded earnestly.
...
Meanwhile, in the Imperial Capital of Heavenly Abode Country.
At the back of a golf course, a young man bearing a striking resemblance to Ye Fan was playing golf.
"Just received a message, I'm sure the Young Master will be extremely interested!"
At that moment, a middle-aged man with a face full of subservience approached the young man.
Upon hearing this, the young man inquired with surprise, "What message?"
"Your brother Ye Fan has been spotted!" the middle-aged man said teasingly.
"What? Ye Fan? That bastard isn't dead yet?"
Upon hearing this, the young man put down the golf club in his hand, his handsome face suddenly became very serious.
The middle-aged man affirmed solemnly, "Yes, Young Master, the message is absolutely true!"
"How is that possible? When that bastard was exiled by the Ye family, didn't I send a large number of experts? So many masters actually failed to kill him?" the young man asked with a dark expression.
His name was Ye Xunhuan; he was the Young Master of the Imperial Capital Ye Family.
The Ye Family of the Imperial Capital was a Super Family Clan with a hundred-year heritage in the Heavenly Abode Country, possessing an extremely profound foundation. Their comprehensive strength ranked among the top three in the country, even overshadowing the Zheng family of Jinling and the East Sea Chen Family.
His father, Ye Nantian, was peerless in his youth and was hailed as the top person of the new generation in the imperial capital. Numerous beautiful women held affection for Ye Nantian.
Who could have imagined that Ye Nantian would fall in love with a country girl of unknown origin and intend to marry her, creating a huge sensation in the imperial capital.
Upon hearing this, the higher-ups of the Ye family opposed it in full and arranged a business marriage. Ye Nantian was forced to marry Ye Xunhuan's mother, Madame Han.
Not long after, Madame Han became pregnant, and ten months later, Ye Xunhuan was born into the world without complications. It was believed that Ye Nantian would now settle down, but unexpectedly, when Ye Xunhuan was one year old, Ye Nantian brought back a child from outside who greatly resembled Ye Xunhuan. Despite the family's objections, Ye Nantian named the child Ye Fan.
It wasn't difficult to guess that Ye Fan was the child of Ye Nantian and that unknown country girl.
From a young age, the upper echelons of the Ye family disliked Ye Fan, but with Ye Nantian's protection, many high-level members of the Ye family were unable to exile him, despite wanting to.
However, when Ye Xunhuan was eight years old, his father, Ye Nantian, went abroad and encountered danger on the way. He never returned.
After losing Ye Nantian's protection, Ye Fan instantly became a target. Almost all high-level executives of the Ye family grew to detest Ye Fan.
Following discussions, the high-ranking members of the Ye family decided to exile Ye Fan from the Imperial Capital Ye Family.
Ye Xunhuan remembered that evening, more than a decade ago, very clearly. As the snow fell heavily outside, the thinly clad Ye Fan was forcibly thrown out of the Imperial Capital Ye Family by several servants.
Ye Xunhuan knew that as long as his half-brother remained alive, he could pose a great threat to him if he were to return one day.
Therefore, at the mere age of eight, Ye Xunhuan dispatched dozens of Ancient Martial Artists to hunt down and kill Ye Fan.
To Ye Xunhuan's astonishment, the numerous Ancient Martial Artists who pursued Ye Fan disappeared without a trace from then on, and Ye Fan never returned.
Ye Xunhuan had assumed Ye Fan was gone for good, but unexpectedly, after many years, he received news that Ye Fan was still alive.
Realizing Ye Xunhuan's anger, the middle-aged man tried to pacify him, "Young Master, please calm your anger. Currently, this Ye Fan doesn't amount to much, and besides, the Young Master's position within the Imperial Capital Ye Family has been secured over the years. Even if Ye Fan comes back, he couldn't possibly shake your supreme status!"
"You don't understand! As long as Ye Fan is alive for one more day, he will pose a huge threat to me!" Ye Xunhuan stated solemnly.
The middle-aged man asked with surprise, "What does the Young Master plan to do then? Shall I send a few Martial Arts Grandmasters to Central Plains to eliminate him?"
"If we are to act, it must be like thunder, delivering a devastating blow to Ye Fan in one fell swoop. In that case, have Ah Bing take action; he must annihilate Ye Fan!" Ye Xunhuan commanded with a chilling killing intent.
The middle-aged man appeared shocked, "What? Young Master, are you really going to send Ah Bing? Ah Bing is a bona fide Martial King, isn't this a bit of overkill?"
"What of a Martial King? So long as it can kill Ye Fan, everything is worth it!" Ye Xunhuan said icily.
Seeing the murderous aura emanating from Ye Xunhuan, the middle-aged man didn't dare delay. He responded respectfully, "Yes, Young Master, I will make arrangements immediately!"
Unbeknownst to Ye Fan, his whereabouts had been exposed. He was not only faced with threats from the East Sea Chen Family but also with the challenge from the Imperial Capital Ye Family.
In the unseen world, the winds of change were stirring, and a storm was about to break.
