Ruler (3)

Ye Yi nodded and replied, "I know! You built that place; it's now a holy land of medicine on the mainland. It's said that patients there recover faster, which makes many patients want to stay there. Wait, could it be that what these patients say about recovering faster isn't just an illusion, but actually true?"

In other places, people would think the patient's statements were psychological, but in this context, it seems everyone understands that it's not psychological, not an illusion, but something Ye Lang did without anyone knowing.

"Yes, there's a Spirit Gathering Array there too! It can increase a person's physique, but the effect is very slow. If you don't stay in that place for a long time, there won't be much change," Ye Lang said casually.

"No wonder! Back when I was in the Muddleheaded Hall, I felt refreshed and my meditation was more effective..." Ye Lanyu and the Seventh Princess recalled this moment and realized that it really was true.

"Seventh Brother..."

After everyone received confirmation, all eyes turned to Seventh Brother, and those eyes were anything but friendly; they were more like those of someone who wanted to kill.

They knew that because of Seventh Brother's changes, they had wasted several years of good training grounds, which was unforgivable for them, as martial artists and mages.

"Hehe, I'll go change it right away..." Seventh Brother cleverly ran away, knowing that if he stayed here, he would definitely be resented to death.

"Little Thirteen, you too! Why didn't you say so sooner when you had such a good thing!" Ye Yi shook his head as he watched Seventh Brother leave, blaming Ye Lang for not explaining things clearly.

"This is a secret, I didn't want to say it! Alright, let's not discuss this anymore. I have a big project to do, which will be held near Haoyue Lake. Don't go near there unless you have to. By the way, I have a student who is coming here. Has she arrived yet?" When Ye Lang finished speaking, he thought of the student he had arranged to come. He wondered if his student would be upset if she knew that Ye Lang was so heartless.

"Your students? Who are they?" Ye Yi and the others were unaware of this matter and had not heard that Ye Lang had any students coming over.

Actually, it wasn't that the student didn't come, nor that no one knew about it. Rather, those who did know assumed that the student was an imposter, and since countless people were using their own fabricated connections to approach the Ye Clan, this student was categorized as one of them.

Ye Lang's student had absolutely no social experience, so she didn't know how to handle the situation.

Who is this student? Ye Lang only has one student, and that is Little Zero from the Cold-Blooded Group. She is a complete novice who doesn't even know she's been sold out.

"No way, she didn't come? Little Five said she arrived early, she should have been here a long time ago. Could this little girl have been kidnapped again? No, I have to go and inform Little Five and the others!" Ye Lang immediately got up and wanted to leave to inform the Cold-Blooded Group to find Little Zero.

"Who do you need to notify? We'll do it for you. You can continue here for now," Ye Yi called out to Ye Lang.

"Father, he needs to inform them himself; there's nothing we can do for him. The Little Five's he's talking about is Cold-Blooded Fifth, from the Cold-Blooded Group," Ye Chengtian said.

"..." Ye Yi paused for a moment. He naturally knew about the Cold- Cold-Blooded Group and its strength, which was no weaker than his own secret force.

And so, Ye Lang ran out, but he ran back in very quickly.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going to inform them?" Ye Yi and the others were a little surprised that Ye Lang had come back so soon after going out.

"What? I've already notified them. They said Little Zero is nearby and will be here soon," Ye Lang replied, a response that left everyone a little surprised.

"What did you say? You've already notified them? And you even know they're nearby?" Ye Yi and the others were stunned. Although they knew the Cold-Blooded Group was mysterious and that they had special ways of contacting each other, Ye Lang was in the New Ye Residence, on their territory.

According to their thinking, even if the method is special, someone needs to be nearby. And this is their territory. If they can make contact here, does that mean there are members of the Cold-Blooded Group here?

"Yes, Little Zero will be here soon. I've already notified them to let us through." Ye Lang nodded, seemingly unaware that anything was amiss, and simply answered Ye Yi and the others' questions.

"How exactly did you notify them? Did you let the Cold-Blooded Group into your house?" Ye Yi frowned. He guessed that Ye Lang might have allowed the Cold-Blooded Group to enter, which would be tantamount to putting his life in someone else's hands.

"It's just a notification, yeah, I let her in, is there a problem?" Ye Lang asked, a little puzzled. He was referring to Little Zero alone, and Little Zero was from the Cold-Blooded Group.

Thus, the misunderstanding arose, with Ye Yi and the others believing that Ye Lang had arranged for the Cold-Blooded Group to infiltrate the Ye Clan.

"Ye Lang, you need to be careful about some things. I don't know what your relationship is with the Cold-Blooded Group, but how can we let them into our house? What if they have Cold-Blooded Group motives?" Ye Yi said solemnly.

"It's just one person. Never mind. Since that's the case, I'll go pick up Little Zero. I'll stay at the teahouse tonight!" Ye Lang frowned, then turned and left.

"Hey, you little bastard, where are you going?! This is your home! You come back but don't stay at home, you go to stay at the teahouse, what kind of behavior is this?!" Long Anqi immediately grabbed Ye Lang.

"But Grandpa said we can't let the Cold-Blooded Group in. I have a lot to say to Little Zero, so we can only talk outside. Actually, I also want to stay at home. This is such a hassle..." Ye Lang frowned.

"...You idiot, you let your Little Zero in, you weren't talking about her!" Long Anqi said irritably, knowing that Ye Lang had misunderstood.

"Not her? Grandpa said she was from the Cold-Blooded Group, right?" Ye Lang asked doubtfully.

"Your grandfather was referring to the people you just contacted," Long Anqi said.

"The people I contacted? They're not home; they won't get in here," Ye Lang replied, increasingly confused.

"Where did they contact you just now?" Long Anqi asked.

"Of course, it's at their stronghold!" Ye Lang replied casually.

"Where exactly is it?" Long Anqi continued to ask.

"I can't tell you the specifics. This is internal information of the Cold-Blooded Group, and you're not members of the Cold-Blooded Group." Ye Lang shook his head. This was something he had promised. The Cold-Blooded Group granted him all the necessary permissions, but he also had to abide by the Cold-Blooded Group's rules.

"I'm your mother!" Long Anqi said irritably.

"You can't tell your mother either, it's a matter of principle! You should understand that." Ye Lang shook his head.
