Chapter 2339 - 2340: Led by the Nose
Xiao Jiangnan’s eyes suddenly lit up, and even a gleam flashed in his eyes!
If Ke Qinghong knows that the king and Ye Xunhuan are fighting until both are seriously injured, then he certainly won’t sit there waiting foolishly. He will choose to act against the king, and then deal with Ye Xunhuan.
After all, this is an opportunity of a lifetime. If missed, who knows when it will come again!
In such circumstances, how could Ke Qinghong choose to miss it?
However, Xiao Jiangnan immediately seemed to think of something and promptly spoke: "Ye Xunhuan may not necessarily team up with you for such a scheme against Ke Qinghong."
Although the king’s idea is good, how could Ye Xunhuan possibly play along with the king for such a scheme!
After all, the enemy’s enemy is a friend; even if they are not friends, they definitely won’t help a common enemy to defeat the other side!
The king chuckled lightly, full of disdain, and said: "Why should I need Ye Xunhuan to assist in my plan? I can do it all by myself!"
The king is certainly not a weakling. With his power, defeating Ye Xunhuan may be difficult, but it’s not impossible. Simply defeating Ye Xunhuan means he himself can accomplish everything without Ye Xunhuan’s help!
Xiao Jiangnan’s face suddenly showed a look of realization: "I understand!"
Then Xiao Jiangnan’s tone changed: "So, when will you act?"
This time, the king did not speak immediately but pondered briefly, and then slowly said: "In the next couple of days!"
"Let Ye Xunhuan be carefree for two more days, and let Ke Qinghong live few more days!"
Seeing the king say this, Xiao Jiangnan didn’t ask anything further because he knew that since the king was speaking so confidently, he surely had assurance. The king never did anything without certainty.
......
Ye Xunhuan did not know that the king wanted to use him against Ke Qinghong, but even if Ye Xunhuan knew, he might not care.
For Ye Xunhuan, he and Ke Qinghong are certainly not friends. He once thought of using his own fight with the king to bring mutual destruction, and then kill the king. Now the king wants to tread Ke Qinghong’s old path and then kill Ke Qinghong.
Ye Xunhuan is quite pleased to witness this. After all, Ke Qinghong is not a weakling either. It’s not easy to kill Ke Qinghong, and if the king doesn’t show some skill, wanting to kill Ke Qinghong is like dreaming.
If Ke Qinghong and the king fight each other, both seriously injuring each other, wouldn’t that be advantageous for Ye Xunhuan? So Ye Xunhuan is definitely delighted to see the king and Ke Qinghong go all out!
Although the king is the protector of the nation with support behind him, hasn’t Ke Qinghong carefully built his own forces over the years?
This is a complete dragon clash, and Ye Xunhuan only needs to reap the benefits from the sidelines.
But doesn’t the king realize this?
The answer is certain; the king surely realizes it, yet he still dares to act this way. This can only show that he has confidence, or rather, reliance!
Currently, Ye Xunhuan and Liu Qingcheng are wandering aimlessly in Wangfujing, but besides the crowd and the bustle, there’s nothing else here.
After all, it’s not their first time here.
As for other sights in the capital, it’s not that Ye Xunhuan and Liu Qingcheng don’t want to go. They both know there are more people there, which will be more crowded than here. It’s better to stay in Wangfujing, where they can also buy things they like.
At this moment, Ye Xunhuan and Liu Qingcheng are just like many other couples, wandering around aimlessly, chatting, although their topics are somewhat out of place compared to others!
"What are you planning to do after the Spring Festival?"
Currently, Ye Xunhuan and the king are almost at a point where it’s do or die; neither will let the other off.
Liu Qingcheng knows this very well, and Ye Xunhuan is even clearer about it!
Ye Xunhuan knows Liu Qingcheng is asking about his dealings with the king. After pondering, he said: "It’s hard to say now. We have to see what the king intends to do first!"
Ye Xunhuan is currently adopting a stance of not making the first move and adapting without changing.
"This might make you a bit passive!"
"I know." Ye Xunhuan said softly: "But that’s how the situation is now; we just have to wait!"
Ye Xunhuan’s words are true; the current situation is indeed passive for him. Moreover, he has no way to change this passive situation.
After all, his enemy is the king; he can’t just charge in alone with a sword to find the king for reckoning, can he?
Ye Xunhuan can guarantee that if he did that, he might go in alive but certainly not come back alive.
Liu Qingcheng also knew that Ye Xunhuan’s statements were factual and sighed helplessly.
"But before the king takes action, I need to do something else." Ye Xunhuan suddenly spoke again.
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Liu Qingcheng immediately focused on him and asked in confusion: "What is it?"
"Help me contact the Dragon Head and tell him I want to visit the Ye family for New Year greetings!" Ye Xunhuan said lightly.
After seeing the letter left by Qin Fenghuang, Ye Xunhuan’s heart was filled with rage. He decided he must visit the Ye family to offer his greetings and let them have the most unforgettable Spring Festival of their lives!
It’s not that Ye Xunhuan wants to seek out the Dragon Head; it’s because he doesn’t know where the Ye family is, and he can’t find it by himself.
Of course, Ye Xunhuan could use his resources and might still be able to find it.
But Dragon Head is from the Ye family. If Dragon Head is willing to guide Ye Xunhuan there, Ye Xunhuan can quickly find the Ye family, saving a lot of time.
Currently, for Ye Xunhuan, time is everything.
"The Ye family?" Liu Qingcheng’s eyebrows slightly furrowed.
"Do you know where the Ye family is?"
Liu Qingcheng shook her head blankly: "It’s your family, isn’t it?"
Ye Xunhuan sneered: "I don’t have such a cold family. Just tell the Dragon Head I want to go to the Ye family!"
"Why don’t you tell him yourself?" Liu Qingcheng asked softly again.
Ye Xunhuan slowly let out a deep breath and said: "I thought of finding the Dragon Head and telling him, but I know he might not guide me there!"
"So if I tell him, will he guide you?"
"No, he won’t!" Ye Xunhuan said softly: "But he might come to find me, at which point I’ll have all the initiative!"
"He has to follow my lead!"
