No one knew that this Restaurant was the secret base of the Eldest Young Master An Wushuang.
Soon.
A Middle-aged Man walked in and sat down in front of An Ye. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the bloody, mangled fingers on the table.
The next moment, he suddenly stood up.
"Has something happened to An Ruoxuan?"
An Ye nodded, then said coldly, "I believe the Eldest Young Master wouldn't do such a thing, so it can only be the Second Young Master or Third Young Master."
"I only have one question now: does the Eldest Young Master still stand by his promise from back then?"
The Middle-aged Man in front of him was not An Wushuang; he was merely An Wushuang's confidant. Upon hearing this, he immediately said with a solemn expression:
"An Ruoxuan saved my young master's life back then, and my young master said that he will always remember this kindness. Whenever Miss Ruoxuan needs anything, please just give the word."
An Ye immediately nodded. "Okay, I believe you Eldest Young Master."
After speaking, he hesitated for a moment, then spoke again, recounting everything that had happened to An Ruoxuan in the Black Gold Domain.
This includes the Divine Court, An Ruoxuan selling 130 million top-grade Immortal Crystal, and an order for 1 billion top-grade Immortal Crystal.
An Ye knew very well that An Ruoxuan's background made it impossible for her to survive the conflicts within the An Family.
The three young masters were almost all aided by Immortal King powerhouse, but what about An Ruoxuan?
Therefore, she definitely couldn't hold onto this opportunity!
Rather than letting the Second Young Master or Third Young Master seize the opportunity, it's better to give it to the Eldest Young Master, since he currently has the strongest overall strength.
After this matter was over, he took An Ruoxuan and left the An Family, never to return.
He had promised An Ruoxuan's parents that he would protect An Ruoxuan even if it meant his own death, so he absolutely could not allow anything to happen to An Ruoxuan.
After hearing An Ye's words, the Middle-aged Man's expression changed drastically, and he looked at An Ye with an extremely serious expression.
Is this really true?
An Ye nodded.
"No wonder An Ruoxuan got into trouble!"
The Middle-aged Man didn't waste any more words, turned around and left the Restaurant, while An Ye leisurely headed towards the Eastern Suburbs Haishan Forest.
This is the only way he can stall for time now.
Soon.
In another luxurious mansion, a young man dressed in white sat cross-legged on the ground, closing his eyes to rest.
Beside him was the person who had just spoken with An Ye. After listening to the Middle-aged Man's words, An Wushuang suddenly opened his eyes, his face utterly calm.
"I know what happened. It was the Third Elder who did it."
An Wushuang smiled faintly, "This Third Elder is really impatient, but An Ruoxuan has done me a great favor again."
Everyone says that the Eldest Young Master An Wushuang, is mediocre at best. Whether it's business acumen or talent, he is inferior to the Second Young Master and Third Young Master. But this is just because outsiders don't understand him.
These were all personas he deliberately created in the early stages to keep a low profile and avoid being attacked.
He had many informants within the Treasure Seeking Merchant Guild, and almost nothing the Third Elder did escaped his notice.
So he already knew that An Ruoxuan had been captured by the Third Elder, but he didn't know what had happened.
An Wushuang's expression remained utterly calm, but his voice was icy as he said, "This second brother still doesn't understand what the Clan Competition means. This isn't about vying for Steward or competing on sales figures."
"This is a fight to the death!"
"And the Third Elder, those two idiots really did go together."
"Go and send a message to the Great Elder, asking him to rescue An Ruoxuan. After all, Uncle Thirteen saved my life, An Ruoxuan cannot be abandoned."
"As for this Third Elder, let me go and meet him myself."
Upon hearing this, the Middle-aged Man's face immediately showed anxiety. "The Third Elder is only at the Early Immortal King. Young Master, wouldn't it be too rash for you to Past like this?"
After saying that, he seemed to realize he had misspoke, so he quickly Righteous Path.
"Young master, I am only worried about your safety, not that I don't trust you."
An Wushuang waved her hand and said calmly, "It's alright, just focus on your own business."
Then, he stood up and vanished from the spot in an instant.
The Middle-aged Man's face was full of anxiety, but he had to do as he was told.
In an instant, the once peaceful Tianhe Domain was filled with undercurrents.
Eastern Suburbs Haishan Forest.
As Primordial Golden Immortal cultivator, An Ye deliberately slowed down, but he still arrived here in an hour. He looked around with a solemn expression.
An Ye knew very well that whoever summoned him here was definitely trying to silence him.
It wasn't just to stop him from causing trouble, but also to shut him up, because I definitely knew about the situation in the Black Gold Domain.
Haishan Forest is an underwater ruin, originally constructed by a powerful water-attribute expert, but that was a long time ago.
The current Haishan Forest only resembles the seabed, but there is no seawater left.
Just then, two figures slowly appeared from a distance.
The moment An Ye saw them, she tensed up completely.
Two peak Primordial Golden Immortal!
"Town!"
With a loud shout, a terrifying pressure instantly enveloped An Ye, and the two attacked without saying a word, which was exactly what An Ye expected.
They really came to silence us.
In an instant, a terrifying aura swept outwards, and boundless Power of Destruction rained down from the sky, as if to annihilate everything in the world.
An Ye was peak Primordial Golden Immortal, and had been at this level for quite some time. Naturally, they dared not be careless and immediately unleashed their ultimate moves, preparing to launch a surprise attack.
An Ye released an aura that made her incredibly sinister and cold, like a demon from hell, sending chills down one's spine.
After being taken in by An Ruoxuan's parents, he was trained to be an assassin, specializing in handling shady matters.
However, ever since his parents died, he has always stayed by An Ruoxuan's side to protect her, and has never done those things again.
Now, his bloodthirsty instincts have been unleashed once again.
The next moment.
An Ye charged towards the two men, her figure disappearing in the blink of an eye like a ghost, only to reappear just as quickly.
However, just as he reappeared, a terrifying attack suddenly came hurtling towards him.
"Hmph, the Heavenly Shadow Maze Steps is indeed impressive, but that's all it is. Do you really think we were unprepared?"
An Ye narrowed her eyes, preparing to dodge, but her body seemed to be stuck in mud, her speed becoming extremely slow, and she had no way to dodge at all.
What's going on?
Array Formation!?
"Bang!"
The next moment, a huge impact sound rang out, An Ye was sent flying backward, crashing to the ground. His head looked as if it had been split open, with a hideous wound showing, and milky white brain matter was flowing out.
Fortunately, for cultivators like this, the soul is their essence, and the physical body is irrelevant.
Even so, An Ye's aura became unsteady.
This attack was a combined effort from two peak Primordial Golden Immortal, and it was their full power. He was immediately hit hard; it would be strange if he felt any relief.
An Ye's eyes were calm and collected as he slowly stood up.
He can die today, but An Ruoxuan absolutely cannot.
Therefore, he was willing to risk his life to give the Eldest Young Master enough time to be rescued.
