At 8:30 in the morning.
Ye Qiu and the other two arrived in Yangcheng. Under the leadership of Qilin, they finally stopped in front of a luxurious hotel.
”Does the Nine-thousand-year-old live here?” Ye Qiu was a little surprised.
In his opinion, with the status of the Nine-thousand-year-old, he should at least find a villa with a beautiful environment to live in.
Moreover, with enemies lurking everywhere at present, it is even more necessary to find a safe and hidden place.
Qilin pointed to another hotel not far away and said, “Those elders of the Wu God Sect used to live in that hotel.”
Ye Qiu looked up and saw that the two hotels were less than a hundred meters apart. The Nine-thousand-year-old actually lived here. His courage was truly extraordinary.
The Long-browed True Man chuckled: “The darkest place is under the lamp?”
That’s right.” Kirin said, “The Nine-Thousand-Year-Old said that the most dangerous place is also the safest place. Although this place looks very ordinary, relatively speaking, it is safer. We have been operating under the noses of the enemy for so long and they haven’t found us.
Do the people of the Wu God Sect still live there?” Ye Qiu asked.”
Kirin shook his head and said, “They don’t live there anymore. Three out of the four have died, and only the Great Elder is left. Now he is probably with the other several experts.”
Let’s go and meet Cao Yuan.” said the Long-Browed True Man.”
Kirin led the way in front, leading Ye Qiu and the Long-Browed True Man to the second floor, opened a room door, and walked in.
There was no one inside.
Come with me.” Kirin came to the bathroom and gently pressed on the toilet.”
Hua la——
A wall beside suddenly split apart on both sides, and a steel door appeared.
Kirin entered the password on the steel door, and then with a click, the steel door opened.
Ye Qiu and the Long-Browed True Man followed Kirin, passed through a dark aisle, and half a minute later, came to a spacious and bright room.
However, there was still no one in the room.
Come with me.
Kirin continued to lead the way in front and came to the bedroom.
Opened the wardrobe.
Kirin put his hand into the pocket of a suit, and then, saw the wardrobe move aside, and another steel door appeared.
Input the password again.
The steel door slowly opened, and what came into the sight of the three people were two guards holding submachine guns.
“Herald Qi Lin.”
The two guards recognized Qi Lin and immediately bowed to salute.
“Where is the Nine-Thousand-Year-Old?” Qi Lin asked.
“Inside.” One guard replied, and then his eyes fell on Ye Qiu and the Long-Browed True Man, full of vigilance, and asked, “Herald Qi Lin, who are these two?”
“These two are my friends.” Qi Lin said.
The two guards quickly stepped aside.
“Ye Qiu, senior, please come in.”
Qi Lin made a gesture of invitation and entered first.
Ye Qiu and the Long-Browed True Man followed closely behind and passed through a corridor before coming to the living room.
As soon as Ye Qiu walked in, he saw several middle-aged men sitting on the sofas in the living room.
“Herald Qi Lin, you’re finally back!”
“Is Doctor Ye invited?”
“Where is Doctor Ye?”
Immediately, all the middle-aged men stood up and asked eagerly.
Qi Lin introduced Ye Qiu to everyone and said, “This is Doctor Ye Qiu.”
Suddenly, the eyes of several middle-aged men fell on Ye Qiu all at once.
“Doctor Ye, thank you for coming to Yangcheng.”
“The injury of the Nine-Thousand-Year-Old is entrusted to you.”
“As long as you can cure the Nine-Thousand-Year-Old, in the future, if you have any orders, even if it is a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, I, Zhao Hu, will not hesitate.”
A middle-aged man said loudly.
Kirin introduced to Ye Qiu: “Zhao Hu is the boss of Yangcheng.”
”Brother Zhao Hu is too serious. I am also a member of the Dragon Gate. It is my duty to treat the Ninth Thousand-Year-Old.” Ye Qiu said politely.
At this time, Zhao Hu’s eyes fell on the Long-browed True Man and asked doubtfully: “Emissary Kirin, this Taoist priest is…”
”Poor Daoist Long-browed, from Longhu Mountain.”
Hearing this, Zhao Hu and the others became solemn and respectful, and all saluted the Long-browed True Man.
”Greetings to the True Man!”
”You’re welcome.” The Long-browed True Man asked, “Where is Cao Yuan?”
”The Ninth Thousand-Year-Old is in the room.” Zhao Hu pointed to the innermost room.
Kirin then asked, “Is the Green Dragon Emissary also there?”
Zhao Hu shook his head and replied, “The Green Dragon Emissary is not here.”
”Not here?” Kirin frowned and asked, “Where did the Green Dragon Emissary go?”
”To deliver a challenge letter.”
Kirin was stunned.
Zhao Hu explained: “The Green Dragon Emissary went to deliver a challenge letter to the enemy, saying that there will be a decisive battle tonight…”
Kirin’s complexion suddenly changed, and he said angrily, “This is simply nonsense!” Those enemies are all masters. Isn’t the Green Dragon Emissary afraid of going and never coming back? Besides, with just a few of us, can we solve so many enemies?
”Can we contact the Green Dragon Emissary?”
”Call him back immediately.”
”I asked him to go.” Suddenly, a weak voice sounded.
The crowd turned their heads and saw that Cao Yuan appeared at the door of the bedroom, looking at everyone with a smile on his face.
Ye Qiu noticed that Cao Yuan’s face was pale, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he was holding the door with one hand, his body trembling slightly.
Youdaoplaceholder0,hewas was in great pain.
However, that green robe somehow made people feel at ease, as if as long as Cao Yuan was there, there was no need to be afraid even if the sky fell.
“Pay respects to His Highness the Ninth Prince.”
Dong!
Qi Lin and Zhao Hu knelt on one knee and saluted Cao Yuan.
Cao Yuan wanted to wave his hand to let everyone get up, but before his hand could be raised, he grinned in pain.
Ye Qiu quickly stepped forward and supported Cao Yuan.
Cao Yuan gave him a grateful look and said to Qi Lin and the others, “Get up.”
“Yes!”
Everyone stood up.
Subsequently, Cao Yuan looked at the Long-browed True Man and smiled, “It has been fifteen years since we parted in the capital. The True Man’s elegance remains the same. Congratulations.”
“Stop talking nonsense. Do you have any wine?” the Long-browed True Man asked impatiently.
“Yes!” Cao Yuan said, “There is thirty-year-old Moutai, fifty-year-old Zhuyeqing, and hundred-year-old Huadiao.”
The Long-browed True Man was overjoyed and said, “It’s not in vain that I came all the way to save you. You still have a conscience.”
Hearing this sentence, Ye Qiu’s heart moved.
Could it be that the Long-browed True Man was the helper invited by His Highness the Ninth Prince?
Cao Yuan said with a smile, “Ye Qiu, help me into the room. Qilin, you come in too.”
Ye Qiu helped Cao Yuan into the room.
This is a suite. The spacious living room is decorated very elegantly. The censer is emitting a faint sandalwood fragrance, making people’s hearts as calm as water.
Ye Qiu helped Cao Yuan sit down on the chair and then pointed to the cabinet and said, “The wine is in there.”
The Long-browed True Man was not at all polite. He directly opened the cabinet and took out two bottles of Moutai from it.
“Is there any food to go with the wine?” the Long-browed True Man asked.
Cao Yuan instructed Qilin, “You go to the kitchen and bring out the dishes.”
“Yes.” Qilin responded and ran into the kitchen and brought out several plates of food to go with the wine.
“Do you want to drink?” the Long-browed True Man asked Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu shook his head. Who drinks alcohol early in the morning?
“Let me tell you, if a man doesn’t drink, he lives like a dog. So, you must drink.” The Long-browed True Man directly poured a full glass of wine and placed it in front of Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu cursed secretly. You’ve already decided to pour wine for me and still ask if I want to drink. What do you mean?
“Thousand-year-old, why did you ask the Green Dragon Envoy to deliver the challenge letter?” Qilin said. “At this time, the enemy is numerous and we are few, and you are seriously injured. We should avoid their sharpness for the time being and plan slowly.”
“There is no need to wait any longer.”
“Tonight, we will have a decisive battle.”
“I want to let them know that the Dragon Gate is not to be trifled with, and I, Cao Yuan, am even less to be trifled with.”
Cao Yuan’s words contained endless killing intent.
