“The Ma Family actually surrendered without putting up any fight?”
In the Capital, within a separate garden in West Mountain, a middle-aged man looked at the report in his hands, his eyebrows tightly furrowed.
“The Qin Family has been wiped out too! What are these trash, these wastes good for?”
Lately, concerning matters related to the Ye Family, one thing after another had not gone well.
Starting from the mysterious annihilation of the three vassal families in Cloud City, to the failed ambush in Penglai Canyon, the murder of Tang Zheng’s grandson, the collapse of the Zhang family, the destruction of the Qin family, and the surrender of the Ma family…
Not a single event had been advantageous for their side!
“Boss, based on our intelligence, Ye Fan should already know about the other families in Flower Capital involved in the operation! Should we notify them now that they’ve been exposed? And inform them about the situation in Penglai Canyon, conveying that Ye Fan has awakened, and advising them to be extra vigilant?”
The man’s assistant, wearing glasses, suggested to him!

But the man waved his hand dismissively, “No need! Let them make noise in Flower Capital as it is! Regarding the news of Ye Fan’s awakening, not only must we not inform others, but we must also contain it… otherwise, if we were to spread the news of Ye Fan’s awakening, would those from the Gu Sect and the ancient martial arts circles continue to push forward?”
A sinister smile appeared on the man’s face, clearly writing off the earlier arrangement in Tiannan Province as a sacrificial play.
He would not care about how much noise they could make!
If they could somehow delay the Ye Family’s progress in seeking revenge, that would be even better!
“Alright! However, I’ve just received news that Ye Changfeng, that old geezer, is already on his way to the Capital, probably wanting to have a direct talk with the royal family for an explanation! What do you think, do we need to do something?” the assistant asked worriedly.
After all, according to their previous plan, the Ye Family should have been thoroughly suppressed by now, and it would have been fortunate if Ye Changfeng had not died from rage. They expected the Ye Family would have become dispirited, but now not only has Ye Fan woken up, he has also acted swiftly to disrupt almost all of their arrangements in Cloud City and Flower Capital.
Now, Ye Changfeng was even heading straight to the Capital, which, if he forced the royal family to take a stand, would be highly disadvantageous for the boss.
“Do something? Of course, we need to do something… however, you don’t need to worry about that. I have my own plans! You just keep a close watch on Flower Capital… Also, coordinate well with Young Master Zhou! With Zhou Ming backed by those enigmatic Holy Envoys, at a critical moment, perhaps only they can deal with Ye Fan!”
“Understood! Zhou Ming has eerily recovered from his serious injuries in Cloud City and has already gone to Flower Capital! I suspect they’re bound for a major battle!”
…
In Flower Capital, within a villa in the Eastern Suburbs, Zhou Ming also held a tablet, looking at the information reported on it, and couldn’t help but curse.
“Damn! Ye Fan has actually become the Deputy Commander of the Xuanwu Region, damn it… This bastard has been hiding his strength all along! Fuck, this is troublesome now…”
“Sigh! The Qin Family is gone, and the Ma Family has surrendered, too. We’re losing more and more of our pieces in Flower Capital!”
Zhou Ming didn’t even feel like eating the apple in his hand anymore; he tossed the apple away, his eyebrows knotted in frustration.
If the battle in Penglai Canyon was anything like what Gu Feng had announced, then Ye Fan’s strength must have reached the Martial Emperor level at least.
Zhou Ming had been quite confident before coming to Flower Capital, especially since Your Highness the Holy Envoy had elevated his strength to Martial Emperor Third Grade.
But now, Zhou Ming was no longer confident.
Just thinking about Ye Fan’s actions towards him and Murano Koji back in Cloud City sent a shiver of fear through his heart.
Ye Fan had used every ounce of his strength just to deal with Martial Venerables. If Ye Fan were to encounter him again, he feared Ye Fan would surely tear him apart, wouldn’t he?
It seemed there wasn’t much use in using force against Ye Fan now!
But if he didn’t take action, he couldn’t explain himself to Your Highness the Holy Envoy above.
“Has Young Master of the Gu Sect, Zhuang Chao, arrived in Flower Capital yet? Contact him for me; tell him I have important matters to discuss with him!” Zhou Ming’s eyes flickered as he quickly devised a plan.
It was certain that they would have to move against Ye Fan, but since Young Master Zhuang had arrived, let him be the one to take the lead!

Flower Capital, within Xia Hao’s large courtyard!
Xia Hao led Ye Fan to a quiet small courtyard entrance and respectfully said, “Lady Chu, I’ve brought the person you asked me to find!”
“Is that so? Then please invite Doctor Ye inside!”
From inside the house, a lazy voice drifted out, its tone seemingly imbued with boundless allure. A fragrance wafted from the room, enchanting to the soul!
“Young Master Ye… if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first!” Xia Hao touched his forehead somewhat sheepishly, “Mr. Xia has reached an age where he truly cannot handle this, cough cough!”
As his words faded, Xia Hao quickly vanished from the doorway like a wisp of smoke.
Ye Fan watched Xia Hao’s retreating figure and curved his lips into a smile.
Is it necessary?
It’s just the world’s leading “Bed Armor,” is it that exaggerated?
Ye Fan stepped into the small courtyard and then swiftly moved towards the main hall.
The moment Ye Fan’s foot entered the great door of the main hall, he was stunned by the sight before him.
Is this too hot to handle?
In the hall, on a vine chair sofa, a charming woman dressed in a white gauze dress reclined lazily. One of her legs was straightened, while the other was slightly bent.
The white gauze dress had slid down from the woman’s waist, revealing her exquisitely curved waistline… Below, her long slender legs were fair and smooth, half-revealed and half-concealed. The black lace panties showed a slim fringe of lace, and the rest was merely the outline of black!
Alluring!
It laid bare the woman’s sensuality and charm!
In Ye Fan’s mind, only one phrase came to mind: more delicate than a flower!
So, this was truly the world’s leading “Bed Armor,” wasn’t it?
Such delicate and alluring weakness, her body full of seduction, seemed to be silently inviting a man… urging you to dominate, conquer, and possess!
Bed Armor, Bed Armor!
Made to keep you from leaving the bed!
Leaning on the wall for support!
It was but a fleeting glimpse, yet even an experienced man like Ye Fan was almost overwhelmed.
This was none other than the late Zhao Cheng’s wife from the Capital, the world’s leading “Bed Armor” – Chu Lanwei!
As Ye Fan entered, Chu Lanwei did not rise, instead, she supported her fair chin with one hand, her eyes hazily sizing up Ye Fan.
Those eyes seemed to have hooks, irresistibly drawing Ye Fan closer to Chu Lanwei.
But at that moment, the Inheritance within Ye Fan’s dantian flickered vigorously, restoring his composure considerably and giving him a secret shock!
Did Chu Lanwei truly possess such charm, or had she employed some form of mental technique?
“Young Master Ye, we finally meet! Allow this humble one to rise and greet Young Master Ye!” Chu Lanwei languidly got up from the vine chair. Whether intentional or not, as she rose, her gauze dress slipped from her shoulder, exposing much of the scenery across her chest right in front of Ye Fan!
Holy moly!
