Chapter 260 - 260: They Are Alive?
There was no way the old man could remain calm in this situation. Beiye was in Huaxia!
His body trembled slightly, but he quickly regained a trace of seriousness and asked seriously, “Rakshasa is really Beiye? How is that possible? Given his strength and personality, he would never work for someone else!”
Ye Chen sat down and shrugged.
“This is a fact. As for how or why, 1 can’t tell you. Everyone has their own secrets, right?”
Hearing this, the old man nodded and said, “Alright. However, I need to ask you. Will Beiye listen to your instructions?”
“Yes,” Ye Chen replied.
How shocking!
After recovering from his surprise, the old man revealed a happy expression.
“Ye Chen, can I borrow Beiye?”
The old man did not beat around the bush.
“No problem.”
The old man was delighted. He was about to speak when Ye Chen continued, “But 1 have a condition!”
Ye Chen knew that this was his best chance to obtain information about the Cloud Lake Manor incident, the mystery behind his parents’ deaths, and the whereabouts of Chief Long in Capital City.
This old man definitely had access to this information!
The old man guessed what he was thinking and said, “You want to ask about the Cloud Lake Manor incident, right?”
Ye Chen nodded, his gaze extremely solemn.
“Not only do 1 want to know what happened at Cloud Lake Manor, but 1 also want to know where Chief Long is!”
His cold killing intent filled the room.
Even through the video, the old man could sense that the atmosphere had changed.
After hesitating for a few seconds, the old man sighed and said, “It’s not that 1 don’t want to tell you, but I promised someone that I wouldn’t reveal what happened back then.”
“I gave my promise back then as it did not seem to be a major incident. However, 1 can tell you that this matter involves three martial arts families.”
The old man’s voice rang like thunder, as Ye Chen’s body was engulfed in a monstrous fiendish aura!
As if sensing Ye Chen’s anger, the old man said, “Ye Chen, although I can’t tell you everything about the Cloud Lake Manor incident, there’s one piece of information that will make it worth your while.”
“What?” Ye Chen asked in a low voice.
The old man’s eyes narrowed. He stood up and placed his hands on the table in front of him, and then said, “Your parents are not dead!”
Ye Chen’s heart felt as if it had been hit by a cannonball!
His eyes reddened, and the veins on his body bulged.
Although his investigation into the incident pointed toward there being something fishy about his parents’ deaths, and that they might even be alive, hearing confirmation of this sent waves crashing into his heart.
“Where are they?” Ye Chen asked excitedly. He could barely contain himself.
The old man shook his head.
“I don’t know either. But you might find out soon. Someone is coming to Jiangnan Province to look for you.”
The old man was afraid that Ye Chen would continue asking questions that he should not ask, so he looked at the time and said, “That’s all for today’s video. I’ll get someone to contact Beiye.”
Then, the video call ended.
Ye Chen then left the place, and chose to walk back after being dropped off.
He dialed Ye Lingtian’s number immediately.
“Send me the information you have on the martial arts families in Huaxia immediately!”
Ye Lingtian quickly sorted out the information and sent it to Ye Chen.
However, to Ye Chen’s disappointment, he could not identify the families involved based on the information.
That being said, he was certain that one of them must be the family behind his mother, the Jiang family, in which case, Jiang Jianfeng was his only lead.
The second one should be Chief Long’s family, but he did not know this person’s surname. He had no clues in which to even start investigating the third family.
While Ye Chen was lost in his thoughts, he heard the roar of a powerful engine in the distance. Turning his head, he saw a black Hummer speeding toward him, clearly intent on taking him out!
Ye Chen’s gaze turned cold and murderous. Obviously, some of his enemies were impatient. In the blink of an eye, the Hummer was in front of him, but before it hit him, Ye Chen bent his knees, channeled his true qi to his feet, and leapt up five meters into the air.
Then, he landed on the roof of the Hummer, and his fingers dug into the roof like a steel vice, finding his footing easily.
However, this was far from over. Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed and his arm exploded with true qi. With a fierce pull, he ripped the roof off!
There were five people in the car, and their auras were not weak. One of them even made Ye Chen feel a sense of danger.
Although the five people were surprised, they did not hesitate to release their killing intent, and prepared to jump out to meet him in battle.
Ye Chen snorted coldly. A wind blade shot out from his hand and slashed the driver’s neck, killing him on the spot!
At the same time, the Hummer lost control and crashed into a wall. However, before the collision, the remaining four experts rushed out of the Hummer. Bang! The Hummer erupted into a ball of flames!
The four experts stared warily at Ye Chen, as their killing intent swept out.
“Ye Chen, I wanted to give you a quick death, but it seems you’ve chosen a slow, excruciating death instead.”
A cold voice rang out..
