“Mom, there’s no need to go over the rest. This is the place. I know Bai Lixiong’s daughter, so I should be able to get it.”

Jiang Rong did not say anything more after hearing Ye Chen’s words.

There were some things that one would only know how difficult it was after one tried it.

Bai Lixiong’s temper was no worse than Old Master Jiang’s, so this attempt would likely not turn out well.

The next morning, Capital City University.

Ye Chen received a call from Lei Shuwei and headed to the campus entrance.

Before he left, he gave his mother a number of pills and some martial arts techniques. He knew that his mother was determined to step onto the path of cultivation. Since that was the case, he naturally had to give her a leg up and support her.

When he arrived at the gate, a specially modified car was parked outside the gate. It looked extremely low-key, but it also attracted many people’s attention due to it being out of place amidst the expensive cars.

The door of the car opened, and Lei Shuwei was inside.

“Mr. Ye, over here.” He waved at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen nodded and got into the car. The car then headed south.

“Mr. Ye, there’s something I have to say first. It’s very important! When you see that person later, please control yourself, Mr. Ye,” Lei Shuwei reminded him.

He was afraid of Ye Chen causing trouble. Although Ye Chen was strong, endless trouble seemed to follow him.

Ye Chen nodded.

“I know what I’m doing. I’ll restrain myself, at least in order to get an answer from that person.”

Lei Shuwei heaved a sigh of relief, “I’m relieved to hear that, Mr. Ye.”

Ye Chen thought of something and said, “Lei Shuwei, how much do you know about Bai Lixiong?”

When Lei Shuwei heard this name, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes. Could it be that Mr. Ye and Bai Lixiong were not on good terms?

If that was really the case, then it would be really troublesome!

After all, the other party was not someone to be trifled with.

“Mr. Ye, you’re…”

Ye Chen knew that Lei Shuwei had misunderstood and said, “I am just asking casually. There’s no conflict between. I just heard that this person is a little powerful.”

Lei Shuwei felt relieved. He looked at the man in the driver’s seat and said softly, “In terms of strength, Bai Lixiong is much stronger than I am.”

“The Bai family is a famous martial arts family, and their position is unshakable.”

“However, Bai Lixiong is extraordinary even among them. A few decades ago, he was ranked first on Huaxia’s grandmaster rankings for a short period of time!”

“A short period of time? First rank?” Ye Chen frowned.

Lei Shuwei continued softly, “Someone else now has first rank, as back then, after he got first place, it was canceled by the officials within just ten minutes! Because of his special status, he naturally could not be on the grandmaster rankings.”

Ye Chen was slightly shocked. He had not expected Bai Lixiong to have such a powerful background. He finally understood why his mother was so apprehensive when it came to this person.

It seemed that there was a good reason why the other top families did not dare to scheme to take that piece of land.

“If I want to meet Bai Lixiong, can you introduce him to me?”

Ye Chen thought for a few seconds and said something shocking.

“I have his office phone number, but it’s impossible to get in contact with him that way. I heard that last month, Bai Lixiong entered Qinling to deal with some matters. I don’t know if he has returned yet.”

“It’s useless for you to ask me if you want to see him. You might as well talk to his daughter. Bai Libing is rather approachable, though Bai Lixiong almost never interferes in her matters because he wanted to temper her. This was the Bai family’s rule. Unless it is absolutely necessary, the members of the family cannot casually borrow the family’s power!”

“However, no matter what, he still cares about his daughter. If you want to see him, this will be a good starting point.”

Ye Chen nodded and did not say anything. He closed his eyes and rested.

Not long after, the car stopped. They had arrived at the agreed upon place.

Ye Chen and Lei Shu alighted from the car, and a man led them into a side hall. They passed through a long corridor and a few large doors before arriving at an indoor garden.

As soon as he stepped into the garden, Ye Chen felt a dozen cold killing intents focused on him, warning him not to make a move.

“Mr. Ye, I won’t go in with you. Remember what I told you in the car just now.” Lei Shuwei said as he stood at the door.

He was still a little worried, but he was not allowed to go in and join them. It was really worrying.

Ye Chen did not answer and stepped inside.

There was an old man in the central garden, standing upright as he watered the flowers with a watering can in his hand.

From afar, he looked no different from an ordinary person.

The old man sensed something and said lightly, “To be honest, it’s really difficult to see you.”

He put down the watering can and placed his hands behind his back. He looked at Ye Chen and a bright light flashed across his murky eyes.

“During this period of time, I’ve been hearing about your great deeds from my subordinates. Martial arts arena, Cloud Lake Manor, Hui’an Province, Yunhe Lake… In the past few decades, other than Bai Lixiong, no one else has accomplished so much so quickly.”

“You are younger than him, more energetic, and represent infinite possibilities.”

The old man sat on the stone chair and poured two cups of tea. He pushed one cup lightly and a faint stream of air enveloped it. Ye Chen was stunned and quickly grabbed the teacup.

A strong wave of air rushed toward him. Ye Chen took a step forward and his aura gushed out, dissipating the wave of air.

This time, it was Ye Chen’s turn to be surprised.. Who would have thought that the old man was actually a martial artist, and a very strong one to boot!
