20: Chapter 20 Visitors from Wu’an Office 20: Chapter 20 Visitors from Wu’an Office Moon Viewing Tower, located in the center of Jiangnan City, was unparalleled amongst hotels in the entire city, seen by the poor as a den of extravagance. Its entertainment facilities were top-notch, specifically serving some of the elite and high-ranking officials. Here, there was nothing you could imagine that Moon Viewing Tower couldn’t do, as long as you had the money, all your wishes could be fulfilled. The fame of Moon Viewing Tower wasn’t just due to its excellent service; it was also because no one dared to cause trouble here, for the hotel’s behind-the-scenes owner was Wu Jun. Wu Jun, leader of the Beichuan Gang and also an expert Ancient Martial Artist with a cultivation level that had entered the realm of Dark Force. He was undoubtedly amongst the top ten in the entire Jiangnan City. Moon Viewing Tower, Tianyun Hall. A lavish banquet filled the round table, and the rich aroma of wine wafted through Tianyun Hall. Wu Jun was seated at the head, with a dozen subordinates quietly waiting for Ye Xuan’s arrival. Wu Jun’s eyes were slightly narrowed, his face expressionless, except for the tapping of his fingers on the desktop, which continuously echoed in Tianyun Hall. “Boss, he’s here,” a subordinate entered Tianyun Hall at a quick pace and announced. “Let him in,” Wu Jun’s eyes narrowed as he directly instructed his subordinate. Soon after, the doors of Tianyun hall were pushed open, and Ye Xuan entered calmly and unhurriedly. “Ha ha!” Upon seeing Ye Xuan, Wu Jun burst out laughing and rose to greet him, saying, “I have long admired Mr. Ye’s reputation, and seeing you today indeed confirms you are a dragon among men. Please take the seat of honor.” There was no anticipated clash of arms or a heavy murderous atmosphere. Wu Jun seemed like he was greeting an old friend he hadn’t seen in years, his demeanor slightly warm. As the leader of the Beichuan Gang, Wu Jun was not some street thug. Without knowing Ye Xuan’s strength, he had no desire to tear into him right there and then. Sadly, Ye Xuan showed no response to Wu Jun’s warmth, merely finding a seat to sit down at random, which caused Wu Jun’s expression to change slightly, becoming a bit more somber. “Mr. Ye not only killed the siblings of the Li Family but also took the lives of a dozen of my brothers. Coming here alone shows great courage,” Wu Jun spoke in a deep voice, sitting directly opposite Ye Xuan. Whoosh! Ye Xuan picked up the wine jug, filled his cup to the brim, then drank down the wine in one gulp before finally turning his gaze to Wu Jun, his voice calm, “If I were you, I wouldn’t have wasted time with so much nonsense.” As Ye Xuan’s words fell, Wu Jun’s face turned a bit ugly, and the dozen subordinates standing beside him immediately pulled out their guns, all aiming at Ye Xuan. “It has to be said, you’ve got guts, but you’re going to lose your life here today,” Wu Jun rose from his seat, his arms braced on the table, looking at Ye Xuan with eyes as if staring at a dead man. Creak! The door to Tianyun Hall was once again pushed open, and a gang member came in with Xia Qiu, a gun pressed firmly against her forehead. Ye Xuan’s brow furrowed slightly at the scene before him, yet his face showed little change. “Ye, you shouldn’t have come,” Xia Qiu knew all too well what had happened when she saw the scene before her. “As an Ancient Martial Artist, I know you’re not afraid of these ordinary firearms. But if you want your friend here to survive, it would be best to surrender without a fight, otherwise...” Wu Jun sneered victoriously, as if he held all the winning cards. Easy as a gentle breeze and floating clouds, untainted by the dust of the world. Ye Xuan slowly rose, amusement twinkling in his eyes, he said, “This plot is really melodramatic. Do you really think you can threaten me with her life?” Xia Qiu had shown him kindness, so Ye Xuan’s visit this time was undoubtedly to rescue Xia Qiu. However, in Ye Xuan’s heart, there was no one in this world who could threaten him, and that included Xia Qiu. The dog-blood-like threat posed by Wu Jun only made Ye Xuan laugh. “Hm?” Wu Jun exclaimed in surprise, sensing that something was slipping out of his control. “Kill her.” Wu Jun was also a decisive and ruthless person; he didn’t believe that Ye Xuan wouldn’t care about Xia Qiu’s life. Unfortunately, before Wu Jun’s men could fire their guns, they saw their own man suddenly getting knocked away, and the great doors of the Tianyun Hall burst open at the same time, and two figures appeared beside Xia Qiu. “They are finally showing themselves!” Watching Tie Li and the little girl Linglong appear, Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly—he was actually waiting for these two. In fact, Ye Xuan could have rescued Xia Qiu directly, but he had already sensed the presence of Tie Li and his companion, which is why he hadn’t made a move. “Wu Jun, although you are an Ancient Martial Artist, killing ordinary people for no reason, are you disregarding the Wu’an Office?” Tie Li’s expression was cold as he questioned Wu Jun. “People from the Wu’an Office?” Wu Jun’s complexion turned livid upon seeing Tie Li and company. Although he was the leader of the Beichuan Gang, he had to step back in front of people from the Wu’an Office, knowing that he couldn’t kill Ye Xuan today. “The two of you must be jesting. Today, I, Wu, was only treating this young brother to dinner, and now that the dinner is over, I will take my leave,” Wu Jun said with a forced smile, then gave Ye Xuan a deep look and signaled his men to leave the place. Regrettably, before Wu Jun could take a few steps, Ye Xuan’s calm voice sounded from behind him. “Did I permit you to leave?” Suddenly turning around, Wu Jun’s face showed a drastic change. He hadn’t expected that after giving face to Wu’an Office and sparing Ye Xuan, the latter would be so unretreating. “Kid, today I’m giving face to Wu’an Office and won’t contend with you. I hope you can escape today’s calamity,” Wu Jun sneered repeatedly as he briskly walked out of the Tianyun Hall with his men. Wu’an Office’s arrival was clearly directed at Ye Xuan. In Wu Jun’s eyes, Ye Xuan was already a bird in a cage; even if he didn’t die, he’d likely have to spend the second half of his life in the Wu’an Office’s prison. The only thing he regretted was not being able to take Ye Xuan’s head and exchange it with the Li Family for those three hundred million Xia Country Coins. Watching Wu Jun gradually disappear from sight, Ye Xuan did not move or pursue, only a murmuring voice began to emerge from Ye Xuan’s mouth. “I told you, you can’t leave.” “Ye Xuan, as an Ancient Martial Artist, you are suspected of plotting the murder of dozens of people. Come with us,” Tie Li approached Ye Xuan with large steps, his hand already holding a luminous rope which evidently had strong restraining power against Ancient Martial Artists. Buzz! All of a sudden, like a gentle breeze swaying the willows, like waves sweeping through, Ye Xuan made his move. Before Tie Li could react, a jade-like pristine hand clasped his neck, lifting him off the ground as if he were a small chicken. “Iron Body Technique!” Tie Li had never expected Ye Xuan to dare to make a move against him. After his initial shock, he immediately activated his superpower, and his entire being shone with a hazy light, his body turning silver-white as if covered by a layer of fine steel. Bang! Clash of metal, sparks flew, Tie Li summoned his tremendous strength and broke free from Ye Xuan’s grasp. Behind him, the little girl Linglong quickly backed him up, her black pupils suddenly turning deep blue, her aura becoming even colder. Watching the two of them prepare to fight, Ye Xuan’s gaze was curious as he said, “Interesting.”
