Soon, her smile disappeared and was replaced by red eyes.

She picked up a coat and put it on, saying to Ye Chen and Sun Yi in a hurry, “I’m going back to Jiangnan Province.”

With that, she disappeared from the living room and headed outside.

Ye Chen and Sun Yi only reacted after some time.

Sun Yi stood up and went to the door to take a look. Then, she asked Ye Chen in confusion, “Ye Chen, did something happen to Ruoxue? She didn’t even take her bag.”

Ye Chen’s expression was grave. After spending some time with Xia Ruoxue, he had come to understand her. Only something serious would make her react like that.

Did something happen to the Xia family in Jiangnan Province?

Ye Chen went out onto the balcony and dialed Ye Lingtian’s number.

Jiangnan Province was Ye Lingtian’s territory, so he was undoubtedly the best person to ask.

“Hall Master?”

“Help me investigate what happened to the Xia family recently. Once you have any news, update me quickly,” Ye Chen said.

“Yes, Hall Master!”

The call ended.

Ye Chen took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one, and stuffed it into his mouth. He had just taken a puff when a call came.

“Hall Master, according to our investigation, Xia Hongye and his wife brought an elderly person to Jiangnan Province’s hospital. Something must have happened to Xia Ruoxue’s grandmother.”

Ye Chen frowned slightly when he heard Ye Lingtian’s words. On the day of the birthday party, he had taken note of Xia Ruoxue’s grandmother. She was still healthy and was not suffering from any major illnesses. How could something happen to her?

However, it was inevitable for the elderly to fall sick or injure themselves suddenly, so he did not think too much about it.

At that moment, Ye Lingtian continued, “Hall Master, there are still a few things 1 need to report to you.”

“Speak!”

“The Qin family has returned from Mount Emei. The matter of the birthday banquet will definitely reach them, or has already reached them. At that time, they might make things difficult for the Hall Master.”

Ye Chen placed a hand behind his back and looked out toward River City’s skyline. He said, “River City is still too small a stage. I low about this? I’ll come to Jiangnan Province tomorrow morning.”

His cultivation level had advanced, and he estimated that he would be able to activate the next tombstone in the Samsara Graveyard within a few days.

It was time to go to Jiangnan Province, even if it was a little early.

Ye Lingtian was delighted!

Hall Master was finally coming over!

“Hall Master, do you need me to send a car to pick you up?”

“No need. I have my own means of transportation. Stay put and don’t expose yourself for the time being.”

“Yes, Hall Master!”

The call ended and Ye Chen returned to the living room.

Sun Yi had obviously just gotten off the phone.

“Let me tell you something,” the two of them said almost at the same time.

Sun Yi’s beautiful eyes blinked and she giggled.

“Ye Chen, you go first.”

Ye Chen nodded. “I’m planning to go to Jiangnan Province tomorrow to settle some matters.”

He had thought that Sun Yi would be disappointed, but to his surprise, Sun Yi wrapped her arms around Ye Chen’s waist. She seemed very happy and said in an excited voice, “Just now, President Shen called and told me that we’re going to expand the Heavenly Justice Group and open a branch company. At present, the most important thing for the group is to stabilize the market in Jiangnan Province, so he asked me to take charge of things over there.”

“I agreed, so in a few days, after the branch company is set up, 1 will head over. Hehe, it seems that you won’t be able to escape from me in this lifetime.”

Ye Chen snickered. It seemed that even fate was pointing him toward Jiangnan Province.

How convenient!

While Ye Chen was deep in thought, a pair of slender hands reached out to hug him.

Sun Yi’s pretty face was blushing. She blinked her eyes and said softly, “Ye Chen, before you leave, I want to wring you dry so that you won’t be in the mood to look for other women over there.”

Ye Chen hugged her tightly and carried her over to the sofa.

Then, the house was full of the sounds of spring.

The next morning, by the time Ye Chen woke up, Sun Yi had already left to settle some matters at the Heavenly Justice Group.

In any case, the two of them were going to meet soon again, so there was no need for a send off.

Ye Chen refined a formation talisman in the room and placed it on the table in the living room. He also left a message telling Sun Yi to carry it around with her.

Sun Yi was now secretly protected by Dragon Soul, but in Ye Chen’s opinion, this was far from enough.

Although this talisman was a one-time use item, it contained enough power to kill a grandmaster!

In this manner, Sun Yi could protect herself and buy time for him to rush over.

When Ye Chen arrived downstairs, he found that Xiao Deng was already waiting at the door.

“Mr. Ye, are we leaving now?”

“Yes.”

Jiangnan Province was not too far from River City; about an hour and a half journey by car.

Ye Chen observed the passing scenery outside the window and realized that there was a huge difference between River City and Jiangnan Province.

An hour and a half later, the car stopped at a small villa called Mingcui Villa.

From the outside, it was obvious that this place was worth a fortune.

Xiao Deng gulped as well, his eyes burning with desire.

Although the salary he received in Dragon Soul was not low, owning a luxurious villa like this was completely out of the question.

He looked at Ye Chen enviously. However, he understood that experts of Ye Chen’s caliber would naturally have access to far greater resources and income than others.

Ye Chen scanned his fingerprint at the door and the door opened.

He walked in and took a look at the overall interior decor. It was an understated, but luxurious style. Not bad.

It seemed like Ye Lingtian had made ample preparations for his arrival.

Ye Chen was about to call Ye Lingtian when his phone rang.

What surprised him was that the call this time was from Wu Xiangming.

After Xia Ruoxue’s birthday party, he had asked Wu Xiangming to return to Jiangnan Province, and had not seen him since..
