he price."What Eight million, eight hundred and eighty thousand" The fat man frowned and mumbled. Then he picked up a chicken leg and took a bite, chewing while mumbling, "Last time Fat Grandpa saw th...Lang Si, who was prepared to kill one for a full profit and two for a psychological gain, suddenly appeared in astonishment. After Zitu's entry, the Xia Dao people were steadily defeated, but their morale kept soaring, breaking through the shackles and charging recklessly into the hail of bullets!

Although Xiao Dao sent out a large number of people, they were all ruffians. Most importantly, they lacked leadership. Figures like Black Bear and Green Snake had disappeared. While they could hold their own against Lang Si's men when attacking, once they were countered by Lang Si's group, their lack of organization and discipline became immediately apparent. They essentially scattered in disarray, without even a symbolic resistance. This allowed Lang Si and his men to easily regain control of Qing Dao Kou.

When Liang Si had arranged for his men to return to the Qingdao Nightclub after collecting information, he found that Fat Grandpa was nowhere to be seen.

On a wide street in Beijing at night, a Buick car was driving at an extreme speed beyond its capabilities.

Inside a Buick, a fat man was happily munching on a chicken leg.

"Are you crazy Doing this kind of driving on a crowded street like this in Beijing" The fat man said nonchalantly, taking a bite of his chicken leg, but he didn't seem nervous at all.

Ye Fan, who was driving, ignored him and said something that seemed unrelated, "The old man is out."

This seemingly ordinary sentence sounded to the fat man like a bomb, he suddenly sat up straight, throwing the drumstick aside, and exclaimed in astonishment, "What"

I wouldn't have believed it, but it's true. I just got a message from Silly Girl. Ye Fan's mind flashed with Silly Girl's innocent and naive smile, and the corner of his mouth curled into a slight smile.

The fat man seemed to have not yet recovered from the shock of just now, and muttered to himself: "Why would he leave Mount Qilian for no reason I thought he had been there for over twenty years. How could he suddenly decide to leave..."

"Wouldn't that be for you and me" the fat man wondered aloud.

Ye Fan shook his head, "The sky in Yanjing hasn't changed, and we haven't stirred up any waves. I don't think so."

"Then there's something fishy going on." The fat man said meaningfully.

Don't say fat people can't understand, similarly, he also couldn't understand. He knew his grandfather best. When he was driven out of the family back then, he once swore that he would never step into the Ye family for the rest of his life. For over 20 years, he had been living in seclusion on Mount Li, and he had never even set foot in Beijing. Why did he suddenly appear in Beijing without warning this time Was it for something

I can't figure it out! Ye Fan displayed his driving skills honed on the border to their fullest, and the Buick sped forward like a rocket.

At this time, in a mansion on Tongren Road in the north of Yanjing City, lights were brightly shining.

Tongren Road, takes its name from the meaning of "four generations of colleagues", it is said that this road was once home to four founding heroes of different empires. Land in Yanjing is notoriously expensive, but Tongren Road occupies tens of thousands of mu (acres) yet only has a few houses. These residences were awarded by the empire to those who made outstanding contributions to the empire as a token of appreciation.

And everyone who could live on this street was a prominent figure, each symbolizing status and honor.

At the very end of Tongren Road, there stood an unassuming courtyard. Such an ordinary courtyard situated on a street with such special significance was quite perplexing. However, those familiar with this place did not dare to show any disrespect to the owner of this courtyard.

Because the people here, their voices carry the shadow of the Imperial Army.

Here, this is the once-powerful Ye family!

However, the current gate seems like it hasn't been painted in many years, its paint slightly faded. The two large characters "Ye Han" on the gate plaque have undoubtedly endured countless years of wind and rain, giving one a sense of profound history and solidity. But the strokes on the plaque are still vigorous and powerful, with an air of majesty!

In the main hall of the Ye family, an elderly man sat at the head. His white hair testified to the passage of time. Though he was very old, his sharp eyes still held a commanding presence that made people hesitate to look directly at him!

He is the current head of the Ye family, Ye Wuming!

Across from Ye Wuming sat another man with a head full of silver hair. The old man was probably in his sixties or seventies, and his aura was more refined than Ye Wuming's.

If Ye Fan was present, he would have been astonished to discover that this person was actually the old patriarch of the Si Kong family from Linhai City.

Ye Wuming gazed at Sikong, and couldn't help but think of the past. He tightly grasped Sikong's hand and said emotionally, "Brother, it's been over twenty years since we last saw each other. You still look as handsome as ever, while I'm already an old man!" There was a hint of sadness in his words.

Si Kong couldn't help but reminisce about the past once again, a wave of emotion washing over him. Back then, he was a prominent figure in Yanjing, but after that incident, he stepped off the stage and went to Linhai to develop. And because of that person, he secretly vowed in his heart never to set foot in Yanjing again!

I never expected that, years ago, the current head of the Ye family, Ye Wuming, would call me personally, asking me to go to the Ye family within three days to bid farewell. The real reason why Sikong Ning was willing to break his promise and set off for the Ye family was because Ye Wuming said: "I have a request of you."

Because back then, when he was down on his luck, it was the Ye family who helped him. With the support of the Ye family, he was able to establish his own power. And from that time on, through many interactions with the Ye family, Ye Wudao and Sikong became very close, so they became sworn brothers.

But later on...

Thinking of Ye Wudao imprisoned in Lishan, Sikong couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. He had wanted to ask Ye Wuming about it many times, but after all, it was his family's business, and he, an outsider, had no right to interfere.

Ye Wuming seemed to still be lost in the memories of those years, and continued to say with emotion, "Over these twenty years, the Si Kong family has grown strong, while our Ye family is no longer what it used to be."

He was astonished. The Ye Family, as the founding family of the Empire, held such immense honor! And the Empire had always remembered these elder families; the Ye Family even controlled the vast majority of the Empire's military power. They were undoubtedly a supereminent family within the Empire. But why would the Head of the Ye Family say such things to him now

Si Kong remained silent, simply listening patiently. He knew Ye Wuming must have something to tell him.

As expected, Ye Wuming let out a long sigh and said, "Little brother, are you still holding a grudge against me for driving Wu Dao out of the Ye Family all those years ago!"

"I dare not." Si Kong hurriedly got up. Although Ye Wuming had been away for many years, he still held an extraordinary position in the Empire.

Ye Wuming waved his hand, signaling Sikong to sit down. "Actually, I had my reasons back then too. Wu Dao was the most brilliant pearl of our Ye family's generation. Do you think I would really be willing to let him leave the family You know the situation back then, I was also forced to do what I had to do..."

Si Kong remained silent, unaware of who was right or wrong in those past events. He only knew that Yi Guan was his benefactor and Yi Tou was his sworn brother. He couldn't possibly favor both sides, so he had no choice but to withdraw.

He raised his head to say something, but suddenly he saw the wrinkles on Ye Wuming's forehead. His heart skipped a beat. At this moment, he seemed to have aged many years...ty's Canglang Gang, the gang leader Cang Kongkong, came to Yanjing to pay respects to several northern underworld bosses.But unfortunately, Bai Xueshan was particularly fierce during those years, taki...
