"Someone else?" Clan Head Gao frowned, "How much can a person change in a few months? And even if his attitude has changed, his talent is still the same. I doubt he has even reached halfway through the Qi Refining Realm."

Gao Xuan pursed his lips but didn\'t say anything. 

"I will go now, Father," He stood up from his seat, "Last few days have been pretty tiring, so I want to rest today."

Clan Head Gao Kang\'s eyes softened, "I know, things have been the hardest for you. Whatever happens, I will always be on your side. This reminds me, how\'s your new business going? What was that thing called… burgir?"

"Burger." Gao Xuan replied, "It\'s a hit among everyone. We are rapidly expanding and establishing new branches."

"Good," Clan Head Gao smiled, "Now go and have some rest.. And attend breakfast tomorrow morning; it\'s been a long time since you ate with the family."

Gao Xuan nodded with a smile and headed for the door.

Gao Long also stood up, "Father, I will also leave."

"Hmm," Clan Head Gao Kang took his seat, "Don\'t forget to close the door after you have left."

"Yes, Father."

…

Outside, Gao Long and Gao Xuan headed towards their courtyards.

"Which place are you heading to tonight?" Gao Long asked, "Yours… or his?"

"His."

"Oh, then be careful." 

"I will."

…

Ye Tian Yun frowned while staring at the back of the two disappearing people.

\'How much does Gao Xuan know?\'

Even though it was just a little, Ye Tian Yun now was slightly suspicious of Gao Xuan.

He moved and followed behind the Gao Brothers.

After a few minutes, Gao Long and Gao Xuan separated and headed towards their own courtyards.

Ye Tian Yun stared at Gao Long\'s disappearing back for a moment and then followed Gao Xuan.

...

Gao Xuan\'s footsteps quieted as he stepped closer to the courtyard.

Behind him, Ye Tian Yun narrowed his eyes and was ready to pull out his sword anytime.

His plan was first to subdue Gao Xuan and then have a chat with him.

\'It sounds a bit reckless, but this is the best shot I have.\'

It was impossible to meet Gao Xuan other than this place.

\'I will ambush him when his guard is at the lowest….\'

Suddenly, Ye Tian Yun paused.

And then, glancing at the back of Gao Xuan, he frowned.

\'This…\'

Without hesitation, he backed off and ran to another hallway.

After crossing a few more hallways, he stuck his back on a wall and calmed his breathing.

\'An array….\'

\'A god damn killing array…\'

Ye Tian Yun was shocked.

There was a powerful array installed in that hallway!

\'That Gao Xuan…\'

Ye Tian Yun felt he had heavily underestimated this person.

\'But how did he get his hands on such a powerful killing array? And how does the Gao Clan have enough resources to keep it running?\'

This was the most surprising factor for Ye Tian Yun.

\'Sigh, I need to find another way.\'

Ye Tian Yun frowned and jumped on the roof.

\'I hope there\'s no array on the roof.\'

But that was unlikely.

Or not.

Because the roof was surprisingly clear.

Ye Tian Yun even double-checked to confirm.

\'Why the hell did he put the array in the hallway but not on the roof?\'

If an assassin was to enter, the chances of him coming from the roof were more than the hallway.

\'Weird guy.\'

Ye Tian Yun frowned and headed towards Gao Xaun\'s courtyard.

However, just a few moments later, he came across another problem.

\'The path below divides into two….\'

The hallway below him was now heading in two directions.

\'There are two courtyards here….\'

Ye Tian Yun frowned, \'The only way to confirm is to check each personally.\'

He didn\'t wish to be too late, or else he might miss Gao Xuan being at his most vulnerable state.

He first headed towards the courtyard on his right, and within a matter of seconds, he reached the place.

\'No one\'s here.\'

Ye Tian Yun squinted his eyes.

He double-checked the whole courtyard, and the result still came out the same - there was no one inside.

\'Who\'s courtyard is this?\'

\'Nevermind, Goa Xuan should be in the other courtyard.\'

Ye Tian Yun smirked, \'Time to make a deal.\'

The second courtyard wasn\'t far away. Within a few moments, Ye Tian Yun had reached Gao Xuan\'s courtyard.

\'Hm?\'

Ye Tian Yun frowned upon arriving near the courtyard.

\'There is indeed someone here.\'

He was able to sense the presence of someone, but there was one problem.

\'There\'s an illusion array.\'

\'Unfortunately for this, I am the worst opponent.\'

Ye Tian Yun smiled and quietly stepped inside the room.

He didn\'t need to look around because the first thing he noticed was the faint back of a person in the dimly lit room.

\'Gao Xuan…?\'

Ye Tian Yun frowned, and after carefully observing the room, he advanced forward.

Before the person in front of him could react, Ye Tian Yun covered his mouth with one hand and put a knife on the neck with another.

"Struggle, and you will die."

He spoke.

But then, something weird happened.

An aromatic fragrance drifted through his nose.

\'This person…\'

Ye Tian Yun gulped, and locking his targets\' meridians and vocals, he jumped back in surprise.

He stared in surprise because this was definitely not Gao Xuan, in fact, this was not even a \'he\'.

This was a young woman.

And when he stepped away from this young woman, she turned around.

Ye Tian Yun saw a stunning beauty appearing in his sights.

He was shocked.

He looked at that slim figure. The young woman turned around. With her long black hair parted in two, she was wearing red robes. Her eyes were a crescent shape with long lashes and green pupils. She had a small face that was beautiful beyond words. 

\'This…\'
