After the king found Xiao Jiangnan, he immediately inquired if there was any news of Ye Xunhuan after he left, but ultimately gained nothing!

After all, once the king left, Ye Xunhuan seemed to have vanished into thin air; no matter how hard Xiao Jiangnan searched, he couldn’t find him. By now, they’ve almost upturned all of Yangcheng.

Upon hearing from Xiao Jiangnan that still there were no updates on Ye Xunhuan, the king’s expression became incredibly gloomy.

Yangcheng is only this big, where could Ye Xunhuan possibly run off to?

Could it be that mysterious woman has hidden Ye Xunhuan and Olivia, otherwise, there would surely be some clue.

"What about Lian Xing?" asked the king with a dark face, "Is there no trace of Lian Xing either?"

Now that Ye Xunhuan couldn’t be found, nor was there any news of Lian Xing, the king had no choice but to turn his attention to the Dragonhead.

As long as he could find the Dragonhead, there would be no worry about Ye Xunhuan not appearing.

Seeing the king’s face full of gloom, Xiao Jiangnan knew that the king likely had an overflow of anger in his heart, so he lowered his head and said, "There’s no sign of him either!"

The Dragonhead used to belong to the Ye family, and was quite familiar with Yangcheng; if he wants to hide, it’s probably even harder to find him than Ye Xunhuan!

The king took a deep breath, slowly suppressing the rage within him, saying, "Search, dig three feet into the ground, and find them for me!"

"King, it’s actually not that hard to force Ye Xunhuan to appear!" Xiao Jiangnan cautiously said.

"What idea do you have?"

"As long as we control Qiu Ruoxi, I don’t believe he won’t show up!"

"No!" The king refused without hesitation, saying, "From now on, don’t mention any idea involving Qiu Ruoxi, and don’t think of using Qiu Ruoxi against Ye Xunhuan."

The king surely didn’t want to leverage Qiu Ruoxi against Ye Xunhuan because he promised Wang Ma; the matters between him and Ye Xunhuan wouldn’t involve Qiu Ruoxi.

Though the king is generally seen as a villain, sometimes a villain’s promise is more reliable than a gentleman’s.

Therefore, any idea concerning Qiu Ruoxi is undoubtedly impossible, as the king wouldn’t agree to it.

If the king were to move against Qiu Ruoxi, using her against Ye Xunhuan, there’s no guarantee that Wang Ma wouldn’t find out in the future; if Wang Ma did find out, she would likely despise him deeply.

Furthermore, the king has always been filled with guilt towards Wang Ma; it’s the only request she has made of him, and if he couldn’t fulfill it, he wouldn’t know how to face Wang Ma in the future!

Xiao Jiangnan froze, completely unexpected that the king’s reaction would be so strong, refusing so decisively.

And with such determination.

"King..."

"Don’t say anymore!" The king directly interrupted Xiao Jiangnan, "Leave Qiu Ruoxi out of it!"

Xiao Jiangnan fell silent; currently, the best method to compel Ye Xunhuan out of hiding is through Qiu Ruoxi, but the king is so determined in his refusal, leaving him unsure of what to do.

The next moment, the king’s eyes moved slightly, "Qiu Ruoxi is not possible, but that Su Guyan can indeed be used!"

The king had promised Wang Ma not to use Qiu Ruoxi as leverage, nor to use her against Ye Xunhuan, but he never promised Wang Ma not to use others against Ye Xunhuan.

Looking at the women around Ye Xunhuan, apart from Qiu Ruoxi, Su Guyan is likely the most important woman to him, right?

So the king decided to focus on Su Guyan.

Upon hearing the king say this, Xiao Jiangnan hesitated not and immediately said, "In that case, I’ll send someone to Jiangzhong City immediately to bring Su Guyan over!"

"Have someone do it secretly, don’t alert the snake," the king said lightly, "Continue as usual in Yangcheng, don’t slack off at all!"

The king didn’t want Ye Xunhuan to get wind of the actions and alert Su Guyan, thus letting people run in vain!

"I know what to do!"

"Go then!"

Xiao Jiangnan didn’t pause, and left the king immediately.

After Xiao Jiangnan left, the king slowly exhaled deeply, murmuring, "Ye Xunhuan, let’s see how long you can hide!"

Now with Lin Yuhai here, the king nearly fears nothing; even if Ye Xunhuan heals and joins forces with Olivia and Lian Xing against him, the king still fears nothing, as there’s a powerful figure behind him providing support.

Of course, the king somewhat hoped Ke Qinghong نیز is here, then he could capture them all in one fell swoop to eliminate future troubles!

As for the massive force Lin Yuhai spoke of, the king really wasn’t interested, as he was enjoying his reign as a local emperor quite well.

The king’s lack of interest could also stem from his own strength, as even Lin Yuhai mentioned they are hard to provoke.

This shows that this faction undoubtedly has an existence comparable to Lin Yuhai.

Though the king doesn’t currently know just how vast this power is, since Lin Yuhai mentioned it’s documented in the Protector’s archive, once he resolves this issue, he will definitely investigate, wanting to see what kind of force could make Lin Yuhai wary.

...

Ye Xunhuan didn’t know the king was using Su Guyan to draw him out; he was completely like before, staying at the place arranged by Lian Xing to recuperate, meanwhile chatting away with Olivia.

Although it was just Olivia and Ye Xunhuan here, neither felt lonely at all.

The next morning, at dawn, Lian Xing came here while Ye Xunhuan and Olivia were still having breakfast.

Upon seeing Lian Xing’s arrival, Ye Xunhuan softly said, "Care for a bite?"

"No need," Lian Xing said indifferently, "You guys finish eating, we will talk later!"

"Just go ahead and say it," Ye Xunhuan softly replied.

"The king has appeared again!" Lian Xing said directly.

"Is that old fox healed?"

"Probably not," Lian Xing said uncertainly, "But many experts have indeed arrived in Yangcheng."

"You mean the king’s reinforcements have appeared, which is why he dares to show himself so blatantly?"

"Perhaps," Lian Xing continued uncertainly, "But regardless, the current situation is very chaotic, it’s all influx and no outflow, and I just received word that even foreign forces seem to be mobilizing; we’ve seemingly punctured a hole in the sky!"

At the time, Lian Xing had people spread the word about the king’s injury without thinking much, and never anticipated causing such a stir!
