After receiving the Grand Elder's approval, Tang Yu took the pass and left the Nine Heavens Alliance without any hindrance.

After leaping out of the waterfall at the entrance, Tang Yu quickly traversed the mountain forest.

After leaving the forest, he took out his phone and checked it; finally, there was a signal.

Although I had already informed everyone before coming here.

But after being out of contact for so long this time, my phone received a ton of messages and immediately crashed.

"Damn it!"

Seeing her phone remain unresponsive for so long, Tang Yu was so frustrated she felt like she was going to vomit blood.

Fortunately, I had put tens of thousands of yuan in cash in my wallet before I came.

After hailing a taxi, Tang Yu asked the driver to take her home.

Taxi drivers are generally reluctant to take these kinds of troublesome fares.

This trip will take several hours, and I'm planning to sneak off to a foot massage parlor after dinner.

Tang Yu simply gave too much.

By the time Tang Yu was taken back to her apartment complex, it was almost dark.

After paying five times the fare as agreed, Tang Yu smiled and took out ten hundred-yuan bills, handing them over.

"You've worked hard, brother. Let me treat you to something relaxing."

The driver accepted the tip and smiled gratefully, saying, "Thank you, boss. But you don't know the market rate; prices have gone up now."

"Fine then, we must resolutely resist malicious price gouging and not tolerate it."

Tang Yu grabbed the money back, put it in her wallet, and turned to leave.

The driver was left bewildered and on the verge of tears in the car.

After unlocking the door with the fingerprint lock, the villa was empty and all the lights were off.

Upon returning, I didn't immediately see Ling Han and Chi Yin, the two girls.

Tang Yu was a little disappointed. Sitting on the sofa like an empty-nest old lecher, she swiped her phone a few times and finally the lag was gone.

There were seventy or eighty missed calls, all from family, friends, and business partners.

As for WeChat messages, they've reached 999+.

Seeing that there were too many messages, Tang Yu first replied to a group message, and then replied to each of the girls individually.

Just as Tang Yu was about to get up to pour herself a glass of red wine, the villa door suddenly opened.

Chi Yin and Ling Han walked in from outside, carrying two large bags. They had obviously just finished shopping at the supermarket and were returning home.

The two women were stunned for a moment after seeing Tang Yu.

He immediately dropped what he was holding and ran quickly to Tang Yu Tang Yu, jumping up like a koala and giving her a big hug.

"Young Master Tang, it's been a long time. How have you been over there?"

We miss you so much.

The two women asked with smiles,

Tang Yu sat on the sofa and chatted with the two women about the Nine Heavens Alliance.

After resting for a while, Tang Yu's phone rang again.

He picked up his phone and glanced at it; it was a call from Lu Junzhuo.

One of the first people he contacted after returning was Lu Junzhuo, asking him to help bring Old He over.

After answering the phone, Tang Yu asked with a smile, "Jun Zhuo, Old He with you now?"

"Yes, I've already put him in the car. Young Master Tang, are you at home or somewhere else? I'd like to bring him over."

"I'm at home, come on over."

After a brief exchange, Lu Junzhuo hung up the phone and, accompanied by Old He, headed straight for Tang Yu's villa.

Old He was sitting obediently in the car, playing Plants vs. Zombies on a tablet.

Before Tang Yu went to the Nine Heavens Alliance, he left Old He with Lu Junzhuo.

With Tang Yu's guidance, Lu Junzhuo naturally learned how to deal with the eccentric old man.

After spending some time together, their relationship turned out to be quite harmonious.

After the car arrived at the entrance of Tang Yu's villa.

After Lu Junzhuo opened the car door and got out, he opened the passenger door and urged him on.

"Dragon-Subduing Celestial Venerable, get off the vehicle."

"No, I haven't finished playing yet."

Old He shook his head and stared intently at the tablet computer.

Lu Junzhuo glanced at it and saw that the old guy had planted the wall-nuts, which were meant to block zombies, at the very back, and put the pea shooters in the front row. No wonder he hadn't been able to pass many levels after playing for several days.

"Your brother, the Tiger-Subduing Celestial Venerable, is waiting for you inside. You're such a loyal person, you wouldn't think that a game is more important than your brother, would you?"

Lu Junzhuo started using the concept of brotherhood as a daily topic.

After pondering for a moment Old He muttered to himself, "The game is important."

"Go ahead and play. I won't charge it for you when it runs out of power. Anyway, you're the one who was disloyal first."

Lu Junzhuo sneered and turned to leave.

Old He heard that they wouldn't help him charge his phone.

He quickly jumped out of the car and caught up with Lu Junzhuo, smiling obsequiously.

"Of course my brothers are more important. I'm just kidding. I'm a very loyal person. Remember to charge my phone later."

Lu Junzhuo rolled his eyes, led the old man into the house, and then looked at Tang Yu.

"Young Master Tang, the person has been brought."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Tang Yu walked over, shook hands with Lu Junzhuo, and said with a smile, "I've almost finished investigating Old Loach's plan with the Nine Heavens Alliance these past few days."

Where is Ye Qiu?

"Still alive for now."

When asked if he was still alive, Lu Junzhuo smiled but said nothing.

He had already realized that Tang Yu had broken through to the Celestial Realm.

With such strength, killing a mere Ye Qiu would be a piece of cake.

Old He saw Tang Yu, he stood there without saying hello, his cheeks puffed out and he looked very angry.

This guy is so unfair! He hasn't come to see me in ages. What kind of brother is this?

Seeing Tang Yu walking towards him, he turned his back to Tang Yu as a form of protest.

Then, Tang Yu knocked him unconscious with a chop to the neck.

Seeing that Tang Yu had knocked Old He unconscious, all three people in the room stared at Tang Yu with wide eyes.

"We need to cure this old man's illness."

Tang Yu, supporting the unconscious Old He, explained with a smile.

"Weren't we refusing to treat him?"

Lu Junzhuo remembered that he had discussed this topic with Tang Yu before.

"There's no way around it, he's involved in a lot of things."

Tang Yu gave a wry smile.

After meeting the tomb-guarding elder last time, he made a special trip to investigate and discovered that the elder actually had a brother.

That is, Old He.

Old He's true identity is that of the tomb-guarding elder of the Nine Heavens Alliance, as are his brother.

After the battle between the Ye Family and the Nine Heavens Alliance, Old He mysteriously disappeared.

The Nine Heavens Alliance has already regarded him as a traitor, believing that he is colluding with the Ye Family.

But everyone has disappeared, so the Nine Heavens Alliance can't eliminate the traitors even if they want to.
