Cold-Blooded Fifth (1)

"Oh, then tell me quickly what method you'll use!" Ye Lang nodded. His method did indeed fall into the category of coercion and enticement, so he remained silent.

"I know you pursued Li Yue, but you gave up on her halfway through. Now I'm giving you a chance to pursue her again, get closer to her, and find a way to get her Heavenly Mechanism Armor!" Athena said.

"... As for me pursuing her, I'd better not. You should find someone else." Ye Lang was a little resistant to this idea because he had pursued her before and was completely ignored.

"If you were to choose someone else, would you want someone else to deceive Li Yue's feelings?" Athena asked.

"No!" Ye Lang shook his head.

"That settles it then. It's better if you do this!" Athena yawned nonchalantly.

Ye Lang nodded blankly and said, "Okay... wait, that's not right. If I go after her, wouldn't I be lying to her too?"

"That's right, you're just deceiving her feelings, but you've already done it once, so one more time won't hurt! Okay, I'm going to sleep now. Get ready, and once I have more information about Li Yue, I'll help you pursue her..." Athena said as she went into the room and went to sleep.

"Prepare what?" Ye Lang didn't know what he needed to prepare, so he decided to wait until Athena woke up and deal with Little Zero's matter first.

"Little Zero, come on, I'll take you to the Cold-Blooded Group. It seems they've already sent word!" Ye Lang still has some connection with the Cold-Blooded Group. The relationship between the entire Cold-Blooded Group and him is still quite delicate; they don't treat him as an outsider.

This is not only due to the Vermilion Bird Empire, but also because the Cold-Blooded Group itself values Ye Lang quite a bit, especially Cold-Blooded Fifth and Cold-Blooded Seventh, as well as Little Zero.

Ye Lang might not know that the Cold-Blooded Group is now under his name, and he is the new Cold-Blooded First!

Well, it's just registered under his name; the real control still rests with the emperor himself. Because of previous lessons, he doesn't want the Cold-Blooded Group to be controlled by others.

However, the Cold-Blooded Group is not usually directly under the Emperor's control, so he used Ye Lang, his nephew, as a figurehead.

However, although he was just a figurehead, it made his relationship with the Cold-Blooded Group more delicate. He could even order the Cold-Blooded Group to do things, as long as it did not violate the Cold-Blooded Group's original intentions or harm the interests of the Vermilion Bird Empire.

"Teacher, I still have many questions I want to ask you when we go back to the Cold-Blooded Group later..." Little Zero was a little reluctant to go back. She had finally met Ye Lang, so how could she let this opportunity pass?

"Ask any questions at the Cold-Blooded Group, it's not convenient here!" Ye Lang said. "I can't stand being here during the day!"

Don't forget, Ye Lang doesn't want anyone to know about his relationship with Athena and the others, because if something happens, he'll have to take care of them!

He came here last night because it was so late that no one would see him!

"Young Master, you need to leave a contact address, otherwise how will we find you?!" Just as Ye Lang was about to leave, Athena, who had just entered, suddenly returned. She knew Ye Lang would leave, and she also knew that Ye Lang would definitely forget to leave his contact information.

"I'll be staying at the Bamboo Heart Pavilion tonight!" Ye Lang replied, and then left.

Bamboo Heart Pavilion is currently the largest restaurant in the capital, and it also provides hotel services, just like a modern large hotel. It was rebuilt after Xiao Ya Xuan went bankrupt, and it seems to have some connection with Ye Lang.

"Don't be too arrogant. Have some self-control. After all, everyone here knows you!" Athena instructed after receiving the reply.

Judging from Ye Lang's choice, he still only chooses the best and most expensive items as always. He continues his extravagant spending habits, and such Prodigal Son is truly unique. In the place where he grew up, Athena is afraid that others will recognize him.

However, Athena felt that Ye Lang's current attire made it difficult for people to believe he was Human Race, thus dispelling everyone's suspicions!

However, given Ye Lang's alchemy skills, some people might have doubts about this. Although they are not sure, if Ye Lang shows a familiar side to everyone, it will undoubtedly deepen everyone's confidence.

Who knows what might happen then!

"I know, how could I be arrogant? I've always been very low-key!" Ye Lang waved his hand and left without caring much.

"Keep a low profile..." Athena shook her head. Having come this far, she already understood what Ye Lang meant by keeping a low profile.

"Heavenly King covers the Earth Tiger!"

"The Jade Emperor loves the Queen Mother!"

After exchanging the code, Ye Lang and Little Zero arrived at the Cold-Blooded Group's location in the Imperial City. The location was, as always, in the bustling city center. It was unclear whether this was a habit of the Cold-Blooded Group or a coincidence.

When Ye Lang entered the hall, he discovered something that surprised him—

"Silly boy!" A beautiful and familiar voice rang out in the hall.

"... How did you all end up here?" Ye Lang was taken aback.

You?

This means that there isn't just one person here, but at least two, and both of them are people Ye Lang knows!

Among this Cold-Blooded Group, who are the Ye Lang knows, and most importantly, who he can remember? It seems there are only two or three, and one of them is already by his side.

In other words, there can only be those two people here: Cold-Blooded Fifth and Cold-Blooded Seventh!

"... Cold-Blooded Fifth, are you sure he's that little bastard?"

Ye Lang was somewhat surprised to see Cold-Blooded Fifth and the other two, while Cold-Blooded Seventh was extremely surprised to see Ye Lang. She could hardly believe that the person in front of her was Ye Lang.

"Yes, that's him. Although his appearance has changed, his scent hasn't." Cold-Blooded Fifth nodded, speaking somewhat indifferently.

"That doesn't make sense. Even though he was still a little kid back then, he shouldn't look like this. He's not Fox Tribe, is he?" Cold-Blooded Seventh looked at Ye Lang from head to toe, his face full of doubt.

Cold-Blooded Fifth shook his head and said, "He's not Fox Tribe, you little idiot. What's with your outfit?"

"It's to cover my tracks! I can't be seen in the light here; it would be troublesome if someone found out," Ye Lang answered truthfully. He believed that everyone knew and understood this.

"Yes, that's true. It's dangerous for you here..." Cold-Blooded Fifth, then walked to Ye Lang's side and gave him a hard tap with Ye Lang small hand.

"Ah..."

"Since you know it's dangerous, what are you doing here?!"

Hmph, who told you to abandon me and bully me all the time? Now I'm going to get my revenge!
