Chapter 262: Chapter 262: Young Master Xie Comes Looking (2nd Update)Staring at the photograph on the computer screen, everyone had a look of bold and capital-lettered confusion plastered across their faces. Nobody had expected that the person in the photo would be Ye Xuan! The Extreme Organization was targeting Ye Xuan? That was indeed surprising. He Jun said with an incredulous face, "Their target is Ye Xuan, doesn’t that mean Black Emperor and Wu Zongkui, leading so many people hidden on the island, risked landing in Yan Country... just to kill Ye Xuan? This is freaking..." After hearing his words, the Dragon Soul members who had been with Ye Xuan all had wry smiles on their faces. It was just too unbelievable! One of the Dragon Soul members pointed at the screen and said, "Look, it’s clearly written here: target ’Black Emperor,’ and Ye Xuan’s photo is placed above. If it’s not him, then who could it be? But what does Black Emperor mean? It sounds pretty formidable! Is it Ye Xuan’s nickname?" "Hey, this is really interesting. They came to assassinate Ye Xuan, but we discovered them, then called Ye Xuan for help, and in the end, it was Ye Xuan who took care of them! This coincidence is like it was arranged in advance." Another Dragon Soul member said with a laugh. Hearing this, everyone agreed and nodded in assent. If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never believe such a coincidence could happen! Those discussing these matters were all people who had fought shoulder to shoulder with Ye Xuan before, and the appearance of Ye Xuan’s photo sparked great curiosity about his identity. Smack! Just as everyone was eagerly discussing, Fan Jianren closed the laptop with a grim expression, drawing the attention of everyone present. "Shut your mouths." Fan Jianren swept his gaze over the crowd and spoke in a stern voice, "Remember, this matter ends here! From now on, no one is allowed to talk about it, let alone spread the word! Keep it to yourselves, do you hear me?" Upon hearing this, everyone was startled and looked at each other in bewilderment, not understanding why he would suddenly say such a thing. However, seeing Fan Jianren’s serious expression, they knew he was not joking. "Yes, Captain Fan!" Although the group was full of doubt, they all agreed to comply. After all, he was their superior officer. What choice did they have but to comply? He Jun thought for a moment, but couldn’t help asking, "Captain Fan, what’s really going on? Why would Ye Xuan be called Black Emperor, and since they’ve sent people to kill him, could there be a second attempt after they know they’ve failed? Should we... offer our help?" "There’s no need. We should stay out of this matter; he will handle it himself. Just focus on your own duties and don’t interfere in his business!" Fan Jianren’s face was stern as he warned everyone, then picked up his laptop and left. Everyone had puzzled looks but said nothing more. At this moment, although Fan Jianren appeared calm on the surface, his heart was pounding and his legs were shaking as he walked. Ever since he saw the photograph of Ye Xuan and the name Black Emperor, he understood Ye Xuan’s identity. He couldn’t believe that the unremarkable youth from before was that terrifying man from the Dark World! He remembered, when he had been a first-level captain in Dragon Soul, following behind a level-five boss from afar, he briefly saw that man. At that time, he was confronting the four Dragon Kings, holding his own without showing any signs of weakness, and that confidence and strength deeply shook him! Thinking that he had just called that man "Kid, don’t be so arrogant," Fan Jianren felt a chill down his spine, as if he had just taken a stroll by the gates of hell and returned. That man was the Black Emperor, someone who could disregard even the four Dragon Kings. And here he was, ignorant of the peril, daring to mock him. Damn, this was like looking for shit with a lantern in a toilet! Fan Jianren realized how incredibly lucky he was to be alive. "Fortunately, he didn’t take me seriously. Otherwise, I’d have died for nothing." Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Fan Jianren muttered to himself. Then, he walked up to Black Emperor, glanced at the man who was barely alive, and couldn’t help feeling some sympathy for him. This poor fool dares to attempt an assassination on that man, he’s practically asking to cut his life short! At this time, a report came in, the warship had already arrived at the island. Fan Jianren began moving the enemies, taking the armed members back to Yan Country for interrogation. ... When Ye Xuan rode the helicopter back to East Sea City, night had already fallen. The city’s nightlife with its sparkling lights and revelry was just beginning, and this bustling international metropolis entered another mode after the day’s noise. The plane stopped atop the skyscraper, and after saying goodbye to Qiu Mohan, Ye Xuan took the elevator down and left. Stepping out from the Wonderful Coffee House, Ye Xuan took out his phone, found a self-service charging station nearby, and pressed the power button. Beep beep beep... A few messages popped up, Ye Xuan glanced at them, they were several missed calls. The first was from Lin Tong, Ye Xuan hesitated for a moment, not calling back. Mainly because he felt a little guilty, especially since he’d made a mistake and then fled the scene, Lin Tong would surely blame him. The next call was from Kirin. However, she followed it with a message, probably because Ye Xuan didn’t answer, so she sent the message directly. Ye Xuan opened the message, a brief sentence of just four words: "Found nothing." Seeing this message, Ye Xuan furrowed his brows in thought. Even with Kirin’s hacking skills, she couldn’t find any background on this Sea person. Could it be that this person appeared out of nowhere? This was somewhat beyond his expectations. However, thinking it over, he couldn’t figure out when he’d provoked this person. Over the years, he’d made too many enemies; if he remembered every one of them, he’d have been exhausted long ago! Ye Xuan simply couldn’t be bothered with it anymore. If the other party dared to brazenly send someone to kill him, there must be further actions planned, and they would reveal themselves in time. As for that, Ye Xuan wasn’t worried at all. In this world, it wasn’t just that no one could kill him, even if there was someone who could, they would have to consider whether they could withstand Purgatory’s retaliation! This Sea person didn’t dare to show themselves, even hiding their identity, probably lacking the confidence to wage war with Purgatory. Ye Xuan continued scrolling. To his surprise, the next call was actually from Xie Fenglin. Remembering this Xie scion, Ye Xuan slapped his forehead, understanding why the other party had called him. He had promised to treat his hidden ailment, but had just forgotten about it due to being busy with other things recently. Ye Xuan pressed the callback button and dialed Xie Fenglin’s number. The phone rang twice before the call connected, Xie Fenglin’s excited voice came through, "Ye Xuan, is that you?" "Xie scion, it’s me," Ye Xuan said. "Where have you been today, your phone kept showing as powered off." "I had to leave East Sea for a bit, only just got back now, the phone was dead." After explaining briefly, Ye Xuan asked, "By the way, Xie scion, are you free tonight? Find a place, and I’ll come treat you." "Heh, that’s great, I thought you had forgotten," Xie Fenglin laughed, though his voice carried a hint of excitement. Though uncertain if Ye Xuan could cure him, he still held a glimmer of hope. After hearing the address given by the other party, Ye Xuan hung up the phone. He had already asked Luo Wei to drive the Audi back, so he hailed a taxi and headed straight for Dragon Mountain Garden.
