Inside a car speeding through Shanzhou City.
For convenience, all three changed into the uniforms of law enforcement officers from the Qingyi Bureau.
However, apart from Ye Li, the other two looked somewhat strange.
The deputy director of the Linhai City who was driving glanced at the handsome young man in the rearview mirror, a sigh appearing on his aged face.
The core student status at Fengyun University is generally only available to students in their third year or above.
Judging from their age, they're mostly under twenty, at most freshmen or sophomores in college...
This talent is truly unparalleled.
The old man felt he could laugh in his sleep if he could join the Linhai City Qingyi Bureau after graduation.
Unfortunately, it's destined to remain just a dream.
After all, even he, who had been guarding Linhai City for decades, had only done such a major thing as raiding homes a few times, and the ones he raided were mostly small, unruly forces.
This person is so young, yet he immediately wants to seize the entire fortune of the Yang Family of Shanzhou. He is clearly not someone to be underestimated in the future...
The old man's mind was in turmoil. He looked ahead again, and after a moment, he said slowly:
"Gentlemen, we'll be at the Yang family's residence in Shanzhou City in ten minutes."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yinyun in the back seat felt a slight stirring in her heart.
She turned her head to look at Ye Li, unable to help but wonder how he planned to organize this operation.
Although they hadn't spent much time together, Lin Yinyun had gained a general understanding of the boy's style of doing things.
He can talk to people who are kind to him, or rather, normal people, in a very polite manner.
But if someone harbors ill intentions towards him...
Even if it's just the slightest bit, the young man will show no mercy when he strikes!
Exceptional talent and unwavering will.
If I could be friends with him, maybe I could actually live a carefree life without any problems...
Thinking of this, Lin Yinyun took a deep breath and carefully chose her words:
"There's one more thing."
Ye Li, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened them. "You speak."
"Martial Arts University and the Qingyi Bureau have a close relationship on a regular basis. You have a gold medal from Fengyun University, and according to the rules of the Qingyi Bureau, they will treat you as one of their own until you graduate."
"Therefore, you have the authority to command this operation. If possible, don't hold back with them."
"Given their attitude towards gold medalists, as long as you don't disappear, they'll remember it as a top-notch achievement."
Lin Yinyun's tone was quite serious, which was a subtle reminder to Ye Li that he must seize the initiative in the operation in order to receive the so-called "first credit" afterward.
This level of merit could probably earn several First-Class Credits at Fengyun University.
For the other party, there are many benefits.
The elderly man driving remained silent, clearly acknowledging Lin Yinyun's words.
"Comparison is the thief of joy; this saying is absolutely true."
Lin Yinyun breathed a sigh of relief, leaned her head against the car window, and said with a bitter smile, "Being able to lead such an operation before even enrolling in school will be beneficial for your future."
"If you perform exceptionally well, you might even get a chance to participate in this year's [Martial Ground Baptism]."
"Martial Ground Baptism?" Ye Li looked up.
"Ah... this is a great perk for outstanding martial artists at Fengyun University. Only the top ten students on the Fengyun Ranking are eligible to receive it."
"As for how precious this opportunity is... let's put it this way, even someone with Senior Sister Chen's personality would fight tooth and nail for a spot in the top ten of the Fengyun Ranking."
"You haven't met Senior Sister Chen yet, but that's alright. All you need to know is that she's a Martial Dao prodigy devoid of emotion."
When Lin Yinyun mentioned the name of that Senior Sister Chen, her words were full of awe and admiration.
"How strong are the top ten on the Fengyun Ranking?"
Ye Li memorized the unfamiliar term. The other party made it sound so tempting, and it seemed to be very effective. If the time was right, he might as well wait and see.
"They can all fight Fourth-Tier Martial Artist."
Lin Yinyun subconsciously replied, then immediately realized that the other party had just killed two Fourth-Tier Martial Artists, and this was as if to say, "They're about the same as the two you just killed."
So she quickly added:
"It's hard to say for the top five, but with your current fighting strength, you can definitely make it into the top ten. Just be patient and wait."
Even if you're in the top ten of the Fengyun Ranking, you're not qualified to receive the [Martial Ground Baptism] without corresponding performance.
Therefore, rather than letting the boy keep thinking about them, it's better to wait for the other side to finish this operation.
"I see."
Ye Li lightly tapped his chin.
He understands the other person's good intentions.
But to be honest, worrying that I'll get stage fright... is really overthinking it.
It's better to worry about whether he'll go too far.
Outside the car window, night was gradually falling.
A moment later, the car carrying the three people slowly came to a stop in front of an enormous mansion of astonishing size.
"Arrive."
The old man exhaled a breath of stale air, looked up at the rearview mirror, and couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.
To be honest, he really wanted to go down and take a look.
However, Linhai City still needs his presence, so he cannot stay here for long.
If the spring breeze has a heart to pity the flowers, could it grant me back my youth?
The elderly man, who served as the deputy director of Linhai City, sighed inwardly, suppressing the impulse in his heart, and gave one last piece of advice:
"Friend, the Family Head is Fifth Tier expert. Although the director and deputy director of Shanzhou City are also Fifth Tier experts, you should still be careful, just in case."
Ye Li politely hummed in agreement, then briskly got up and got out of the car.
Speaking of which, [Soul Controller of Spirits] gave him complete feedback on the physical condition of Yang Mei and the other two without reservation.
This helped Ye Li resolve some of his doubts.
Why would two promising Fourth-Tier Martial Artist risk their lives to Linhai City with Yang Mei to assassinate him?
The answer to this question becomes clear once you see the Blood Contract on their hearts.
With his life and death in the hands of others, and being Fourth-Tier Martial Artist, how could he not obediently obey orders?
In addition, he discovered that this so-called [Blood Contract] could actually draw out a martial artist's precious Heart Blood from their body...
This way of treating his retainers truly opened Ye Li's eyes.
However, this matter might have attracted attention under normal circumstances.
None of that matters now.
Because suppressing rebellions has always only required a list and coordinates.
Alas!--
As night fell, a fierce wind swept in.
Lin Yinyun, inside the car, subconsciously raised her hand to shield her eyes, and then her pupils trembled slightly.
In the gaps between her fingers.
The young man stretched, a terrifying Killing Intent emanating from his body. The gold waist tag at his waist was particularly eye-catching, and his sky-blue coat fluttered in the wind!
Ye Li took a deep breath until a cold sensation filled his entire chest.
That extremely cold true energy, far surpassing that of martial artists of the same level, began to circulate rapidly within his body like a turbocharger.
I could feel the aura emanating from the boy.
Lin Yinyun asked, her voice trembling, "Are you planning to kill the entire Yang family?"
"That depends on their performance."
Ye Li left behind a single sentence, then moved lightly, his figure slowly blending into the enormous mansion shrouded in the night.
