”The Right Protector conspired with Xu Cunxiao last time, set us up at Sha Men, wanting us to pit ourselves against the Shen Family Manor until both sides are heavily injured. This matter was done very mysteriously.” Cui Yu said in a deep voice, ”I really can’t understand what benefit this brings him. I haven’t seen him in ten years, so I don’t know if something happened during these ten years!”

The Ghost King Li Ruoyuan quietly said from the side, ”Do you think, could the Right Protector also be one of Ning Qianshu’s people?”

This remark caused everyone’s expressions to change. Ning Qianshu has indeed planted quite a few people among various forces, just like Wang Tian’an. No one expected beforehand that he could actually be Ning Qianshu’s disciple. As a result, he created havoc in the Western Province, cultivating so much strength for Ning Qianshu. Now, looking at it, could the Right Protector’s actions also be for Ning Qianshu?

”Probably not, right?” Cui Yu said, ”Don’t forget, last time at Shen Family Manor, the Right Protector helped Wang Tian’an, but in the end, Wang Tian’an still tried to kill him. If he were Ning Qianshu’s man, why would Wang Tian’an kill him?”

”If he isn’t Ning Qianshu’s man, then why did he kidnap Miss Huangfu?” Li Ruoyuan was puzzled, looking at the Netherworld Taoist standing at the back, suddenly said: ”Hey, bull-nose, don’t you always boast about your calculating skills? This is your chance, calculate and see what’s going on!”

Everyone looked towards the Netherworld Taoist. Though many didn’t really believe in fortune-telling, at this moment, even if they didn’t believe, they wanted to hear the Netherworld Taoist say a few comforting words.

The Netherworld Taoist was silent for a moment, then said: ”Firstly, I am not that old fellow Old Wang Ba, so don’t expect me to calculate very clearly. Secondly, as the saying goes, the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed. I can only tell you, Miss Huangfu will be fine, but everything is left to fate!”

”Damn!” The Ghost King Li Ruoyuan raised his middle finger at the Netherworld Taoist, expressing his displeasure.

What the Netherworld Taoist said triggered Ye Qing, who immediately stood up and said in a deep voice, ”That’s right, Old Wang Ba can definitely calculate where Zi Yu went!”

Others hadn’t seen Old Wang Ba’s fortune-telling skills, but Ye Qing had, he saw with his own eyes Old Wang Ba foretold Liu Changping’s daughter was in Xishan City. So he was very convinced of Old Wang Ba’s fortune-telling skills.

Liu Mubai said: ”But, that old fellow hasn’t been seen recently, where should we find him?”

Ye Qing also frowned, indeed, Old Wang Ba, an old fellow, can’t be found when you need him. When you don’t need him, he’s always hanging around in front of you, which is really annoying. Now that he’s needed so urgently, where should we find him?

Just then, beside him, Black Bear suddenly came over with a phone and said, ”Captain, Li’s call says Old Wang Ba sent something for you, it’s now with Li.”

”Old Wang Ba!” Everyone simultaneously turned their heads to Black Bear, Ye Qing went directly over, grabbed the phone anxiously and said, ”Where’s Old Wang Ba? Where’s Old Wang Ba? Where’s Old Wang Ba?”

”Damn, do you have to have echo in your speech?” Li Lianshan’s surprised voice came from the other side of the phone, saying, ”Ye Zi, what’s going on, why are you so anxious?”

”Let’s not talk about this, where is Old Wang Ba?” Ye Qing said anxiously.

”He just handed the thing to me, just left.” Li Lianshan said, ”What’s up? Are you looking for him for something?”

Ye Qing said urgently, ”Hurry up, get someone to stop him for me, by all means, don’t let him run!”

Listening to Ye Qing’s tone, Li Lianshan knew something wasn’t right, quickly got up and shouted loudly, ”Hey, you guys, go out immediately, stop that sneaky guy who looks like a scammer, by all means, don’t let him run.”

”Ye Zi, it’s arranged, they’ve gone out to chase him!” Li Lianshan said over the phone.

Ye Qing felt a bit more at ease in his heart, then said, ”Old Li, stop him, keep him in Shenchuan City, don’t let him run anywhere, wait for me to come back and discuss!”

Li Lianshan said, ”Alright, no problem. Don’t worry, he just left shortly, surely in Shenchuan City. If we can’t catch him, I’ll work with Cheng Shuang, wrap up the whole Shenchuan City, by all means get that old fellow out for you!”

Li Lianshan is now undoubtedly the underground king of Shenchuan City, while Zhao Chengshuang controls the police force of Shenchuan City. If these two join hands, no matter who it is, even with wings, they won’t escape Shenchuan City, so Ye Qing was much more relieved.

After hanging up the phone, a few of Huangfu Ziyu’s subordinates quickly gathered around, and said urgently, ”Mr. Ye, has Old Wang Ba been found?”

”He can’t run!” Ye Qing said after a moment of silence, then said in a deep voice, ”But, I have to go back personally, force this old fellow to calculate Zi Yu’s whereabouts. However, someone needs to stay here, in case Zi Yu hasn’t left, maybe we can still find her.”

Cui Yulong immediately said, ”Ye Zi, you go back first, we’ll watch here for you!”

”Yes, we’ll have Sha Men people help you keep watch!” The Ghost King Li Ruoyuan laughed, ”Just as we’ve been bored these days, it’s nice to have something to do too!”

The lives of Sha Men people were saved by Ye Qing, so Ye Qing’s matters are also theirs. Now that Ye Qing needs help, the people of Sha Men are of course coming forward without hesitation to help him.

”Everyone, thank you!” Ye Qing said sincerely.

The members of Sha Men all smiled, and Cui Yu patted Ye Qing on the shoulder, speaking in a deep voice, ”Ye brothers, you must be careful. That man is extremely likely to go to Shenchuan City to deal with you. His powers are truly unfathomable; if you encounter him, be extremely cautious!”

”I know!” Ye Qing nodded vigorously.

The members of Sha Men said no more and followed Cui Yulong to stay at a nearby small town. They would remain there to assist Ye Qing in finding Huangfu Ziyu.

Over here, Ye Qing and his companions quickly packed up and also rushed back towards Shenchuan City. Ye Qing’s greatest concern at the moment was finding out Huangfu Ziyu’s whereabouts, so he was eager to return to Shenchuan City immediately, locate Old Wang Ba, and force him to disclose Huangfu Ziyu’s whereabouts.

The convoy returned along the same route and halfway through, Ye Qing received a phone call from White Wolf in the vehicle behind. It turned out that the previously unconscious Tianfu had woken up, and he wanted to see Ye Qing.

Ye Qing promptly switched vehicles to sit with Tianfu. Tianfu was severely injured with a large wound on his forehead, now bandaged, but the wound continued to bleed, looking very pitiable.

Seeing Tianfu in such a state, Ye Qing was also infuriated. Although he hadn’t witnessed the chaotic battle at the time, seeing the condition of Huangfu Ziyu’s injured men, he knew that man had really gone all out ruthlessly!

”Uncle Fu, you wanted to see me?” Ye Qing sat beside Tianfu.

Tianfu immediately sat up, grabbing Ye Qing by the arm, speaking in a low voice, ”Ye... Mr. Ye, you... you must bring... bring Miss back...”

”Uncle Fu, rest assured!” Ye Qing said sternly, ”Even if it costs me my life, I will definitely bring Zi Yu back!”

Hearing Ye Qing’s words, Tianfu’s face finally showed a hint of relief; he sighed lightly and spoke in a low voice, ”Mr. Ye, I called you over mainly to tell you some things. Perhaps these matters might help you in finding Miss!”

”What kind of matters?” Ye Qing asked in surprise.

Tianfu sat upright, took several deep breaths to regain some strength, looked at Ye Qing, and spoke in a low voice, ”These things were not supposed to be known by outsiders. However, Mr. Ye, with your current relationship with Miss, you are not considered an outsider. Some matters are also at the point where you ought to know!”

Seeing Tianfu’s serious expression, Ye Qing was even more intrigued. Could it be some secret of the Huangfu Household?

Tianfu asked, ”Have you ever heard of Heaven Earth Man Three Gates?”

Ye Qing nodded and said, ”I’ve heard Old Wang Ba mention it.”

Tianfu continued, ”Then have you heard of Hong Alliance and Qing Tang?”

”Hong Alliance? Qing Tang?” Ye Qing was bewildered and said, ”I’ve heard some about Hong Alliance. Helian Tiehua’s son, Helian Qingfeng mentioned it before. It seems Huangfu Household is also a member of Hong Alliance, isn’t it?”

”That’s correct!” Tianfu slowly nodded and said, ”Not only the Huangfu Household, but also Chen Si Chen San’s Chen Family, Ao Wuchang from Shu, and Great General Helian Tiehua from Meng District, are all members of Hong Alliance.”

Ye Qing was astonished; he had previously heard Old Wang Ba say that both the Huangfu Household and the Chen Family were families comparable to the current Shen Family. And Ao Wuchang from Shu and Great General Helian Tiehua from Meng District were even among the acme figures in the realm. Particularly, Great General Helian Tiehua, whom Ye Qing had met in the Capital last time, personally witnessing the general’s majestic presence that overwhelmed the world. At that time, even the Seven-Star Ancient Sword couldn’t harm him, which showed the general’s formidable strength!

But who could have imagined that these several acme-power families were actually members of Hong Alliance. If that’s the case, how strong is Hong Alliance? If the Huangfu Household and the Chen Family truly are as strong as Old Wang Ba said, then the strength of Hong Alliance could potentially include the entire realm!

”Hong Alliance, what kind of alliance is it exactly?” Ye Qing couldn’t help but ask.

Tianfu waved his hand and said, ”To understand Hong Alliance’s background, you must first know Qing Tang.”

”Qing Tang?” Ye Qing was even more puzzled and said, ”I’ve never even heard the name.”

”It’s right that you haven’t heard of it...” Tianfu said, ”Even for older generations, if they haven’t been through that event, they haven’t heard of Qing Tang either. Going back a hundred years, there were rumors in the realm about Seven Steering Committees of Hong Alliance and Twelve Green Halls, referring to the two strongest organizations in the realm. And our Huangfu Household is one of the seven steering committees of Hong Alliance!”

”Ah?” Ye Qing widened his eyes and said, ”So Hong Alliance still has six other families with strength equivalent to the Huangfu Household?”
