In the Fragrant Love House, when Ye Xunhuan encountered Lian Xing, he felt as if he had seen her somewhere before. And today, when dealing with the King, Lian Xing was wearing a Blue Demon Rose mask, which gave Ye Xunhuan a sense of déjà vu, especially when he saw the extremely thin blade in Lian Xing’s hand, it made Ye Xunhuan feel as if he had indeed seen Lian Xing before.

"If it were me, would Young Master Ye be grateful?" Lian Xing said calmly, "If it wasn’t me, would Young Master Ye still force me to say it’s me?"

The answer from Lian Xing was very ambiguous, making it impossible to confirm anything.

"Miss Lian Xing, is it really so difficult to give an accurate answer?"

Lian Xing pondered slightly, "Since Young Master Ye puts it this way, then consider it as me!"

Although Lian Xing’s admission was reluctant, it counted as acknowledgment, so Ye Xunhuan did not act foolishly by forcing Lian Xing to make a very certain admission, but instead asked back, "I wonder why Miss Lian Xing saved me back then, especially when you were in Yang City?"

"A secret!" Lian Xing said with a faint smile, "I’ll give you an answer after some time."

Upon hearing Lian Xing say this, Ye Xunhuan knew this woman had no intention of saying anything else, so no matter how he asked next, it would be useless. Thus, Ye Xunhuan did not continue to ask further!

Seeing Ye Xunhuan silent, Lian Xing spoke again, "By the way, I came here to tell you that the King has laid a net over the entire Yang City, just waiting for the two of you to appear!"

"During this time, it’s best for you not to show yourselves and stay here to heal properly. You can directly tell me if there’s anything." Lian Xing reminded, "Otherwise, if you are caught by the King, he’ll spare no effort to eliminate you!"

"The King probably isn’t doing well either now, is he?" Ye Xunhuan said softly.

"That I don’t know." Lian Xing shook her head, "But even if he isn’t doing well, he’s better than us. After all, he is the head of the Protectors; as long as he lives, everything he says is law!"

Ye Xunhuan quite agreed with what Lian Xing said.

After all, the King was only injured, not dead, and most importantly, no one knows how badly injured he is, so naturally no one dares to challenge the King’s authority.

Because if the King’s injury isn’t severe, then for oneself, it would be the end of the world; especially since the King hasn’t been the head of the Protectors for just a day or two, wouldn’t he have loyal followers under him?

So even if the King is hurt, his position among the Protectors is unshakable.

"Thank you!" Ye Xunhuan said with full gratitude to Lian Xing, "You should also be careful!"

"There won’t be any trouble for me; the King can’t trace anything back to me." Lian Xing said very confidently, "Moreover, with the King injured now, he won’t appear personally; he’ll send someone. I don’t have to worry about anything more!"

"Since you are confident, I won’t say much more, but when the time comes to leave, please let me know immediately!"

Lian Xing nodded and said straightforwardly, "No problem with that, but aren’t you thinking of dealing with the Ye family by then?"

"I do have such a thought!"

After all, Ye Xunhuan came to Yang City to handle the Ye family, but who would have thought the King’s appearance messed everything up, causing Ye Xunhuan to get injured and now hide like a mole, not daring to show himself!

Speaking with a change in tone, Ye Xunhuan said, "But I also know that seeking trouble with the Ye family now is definitely not a wise choice!"

"As long as you’re aware of it." Lian Xing took a deep breath.

Honestly, Lian Xing was really afraid Ye Xunhuan would go after the Ye family.

Suddenly, Ye Xunhuan seemed to remember something and spoke again, "By the way, you need to do me another favor!"

"Speak!" Lian Xing said softly.

"Help me find Dragon Head."

Dragon Head came to Yang City with Ye Xunhuan, but now Ye Xunhuan is staying with Olivia, while Dragon Head is missing. This makes Ye Xunhuan very worried about Dragon Head’s safety, so Ye Xunhuan hopes Lian Xing can help find Dragon Head!

Lian Xing understands Ye Xunhuan’s intention and immediately said, "Okay, if there’s news about him, I’ll notify you at once. Of course, if I can find him, I’ll have him brought to see you immediately!"

"Thank you!"

"No worries!" Lian Xing said nonchalantly, "Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now!"

Ye Xunhuan and Olivia didn’t try to stop Lian Xing, entirely letting her leave.

After Lian Xing left, Olivia said, "This woman is so mysterious, and she knows a lot!"

"I also find her very mysterious," Ye Xunhuan said seriously, "But at least for now, she bears us no ill will, which is quite fortunate."

Olivia strongly agreed with this point, nodding her head.

Indeed, regardless of what happens in the future, at least Lian Xing isn’t an enemy now, so they don’t need to worry about Lian Xing being a threat to them!

"Olivia, is there really a Four Great Nobles in this underground world?"

"I don’t know if it’s true or not. I always thought it was just something people said for fun, merely a joke." Olivia said honestly, "Who would have thought it’s mentioned today, and in such a detailed manner!"

Ye Xunhuan didn’t speak immediately, instead falling into silence.

If what Lian Xing said was true, then the Four Great Nobles are indeed the strongest presence in the underground world, but who are they?

Would they suddenly act against him one day, and if they did, could he defend against them!

"But she mentioned one less; it’s not the Four Great Nobles but the Five!" Olivia’s face suddenly turned serious.

"What?"

"East, West, South, North, Center, Five Great Nobles!"

Earlier, Olivia wanted to interrupt Lian Xing but didn’t know if Lian Xing deliberately left one out, or really didn’t know, or was testing something, so in a second thought, Olivia held back what she was about to say.

Now that Lian Xing has left, she’s alone with Ye Xunhuan; so there’s nothing they can’t speak of!

"Five?"

"Yes, East, West, South, North, and Center, the Five Great Nobles. Rumors say they are the true rulers of the underground world, but I have never seen them, not once!" Olivia said heavily, "Moreover, the five of them do not participate in any conflicts, including holy wars. Their existence seems meant for the rules and order of the underground world!"
