Rural Doctor Enters the City: Whoever Touches My Wife, I'll Take Them Down!-Chapter 1709: Punishment Hall Attacks!
"So, are you now planning to go to Heavenly King Sea?"
"Looking for someone?"
"Wouldn’t it be to find the Dragon Master?"
Ye Zhongshan looked at Zhou Yu in shock.
Zhou Yu nodded.
"That’s what I intend to do."
"I have learned that the Cao Family, being a cabinet member of Heavenly King Sea, has always been part of the Dragon Master’s faction."
"So, this matter must have been instigated by the Dragon Master."
"The grudge has its proprietor, the debt has its owner. If not him, then who else do I seek?"
Upon hearing Zhou Yu’s words, Ye Zhongshan waved his hand and said:
"Don’t rush, let me think for a moment."
"This matter is far more complicated than it appears."
"Perhaps, it might have something to do with the ban on my Ye Family."
This remark from Ye Zhongshan startled both Ye Mengyun and Zhou Yu.
However, seeing Ye Zhongshan already deep in thought, Zhou Yu and Ye Mengyun exchanged a glance, remaining silent.
Ye Mengyun lightly stepped up to Zhou Yu.
She stood in front of Zhou Yu without hesitation, the two of them quite close; Zhou Yu could even smell the unique fragrance emanating from Ye Mengyun.
Just as Zhou Yu was feeling a bit awkward, Ye Mengyun suddenly spoke.
"Zhou Yu, Grandpa needs some time to think. Let’s take a stroll by the lake!"
Zhou Yu nodded.
"Sure."
Ye Mengyun smiled slightly and walked past Zhou Yu.
The two of them arrived at the lakeside.
The breeze came over the lake, causing Ye Mengyun’s hair to dance.
Ye Mengyun smoothed her hair and then said:
"Before this, I didn’t really have any concept of time."
"It always seemed like time went by slowly."
"But seeing you today, I suddenly feel as if a lifetime has passed." 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
"I truly miss the days of a year ago in Hai City."
The words of Ye Mengyun were spoken lightly, but Zhou Yu inexplicably sensed a different emotion.
For a moment, he didn’t know how to respond.
After hesitating, Zhou Yu spoke:
"Xiao Yun, is the Ye Family really free from danger now?"
Not knowing how to continue Ye Mengyun’s conversation, Zhou Yu could only awkwardly change the topic.
Ye Mengyun, intelligent as she was, immediately understood Zhou Yu’s thoughts upon hearing his words.
Ye Mengyun gave Zhou Yu a somewhat reproachful look, then quickly regained her previous feistiness.
"Didn’t Grandpa just say?"
"My Ye Family is not made of clay."
"There’s certainly no danger at all."
Zhou Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"That’s good."
Then, the two of them chatted casually for a bit.
Just then, Ye Zhongshan finally snapped out of his contemplative state and gestured towards Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu and Ye Mengyun quickly returned to Ye Zhongshan’s side.
By this time, Ye Zhongshan had regained his previous calm.
He smiled and said:
"Zhou Yu, I just reviewed everything, and now I think this matter may be quite complicated."
Zhou Yu’s heart stirred.
"Old Ye, how so?"
Ye Zhongshan laughed:
"Back when the Yun Family was exterminated, countless secrets were indeed behind it."
"Prior to this, Heavenly King Sea has always issued a kill order on Yun Feifei, the last surviving girl from the Yun Family."
"But now, the Dragon Master has taken her back to Heavenly King Sea and released a rumor to exchange her for the Heavenly Law Dao Bead."
"Although I don’t know what the Dragon Master is up to."
"But, according to my understanding of him, he is likely unlike what others imagine."
Zhou Yu promptly asked:
"Old Ye, what do you think the Dragon Master is contemplating?"
Ye Zhongshan shook his head and laughed:
"It’s hard to say, but I feel this isn’t necessarily a bad thing."
"As for the extermination of the Shen Family, this matter is even more intriguing."
"The Shen Family counts as a first-class family in the Capital City, and with their extensive family history, their extermination would certainly shock the entire Capital City."
"But it seems now that the impact of this event has been deliberately controlled."
"So, in my view, the Shen Family might not have been wiped out!"
"Huh?" Zhou Yu was completely shocked.
He never expected Ye Zhongshan to arrive at such a conclusion.
"I witnessed this with my own eyes!"
Zhou Yu said.
Ye Zhongshan laughed:
"Seeing might not be believing."
"Of course, these are just my speculations."
"But, if I guess correctly, then this matter becomes quite interesting."
"Zhou Yu, I suggest you don’t act rashly and don’t hurry to meet the Dragon Master."
"I am ninety percent sure that that girl Yun Feifei will be fine."
Seeing Ye Zhongshan speaking with such confidence, Zhou Yu finally relaxed his previously tense nerves.
A person like Ye Zhongshan wouldn’t easily say such things. Once he does, he must surely have absolute confidence!
Ye Zhongshan continued:
"The only thing I can’t figure out now is the Punishment Hall."
"Why are they targeting you?"
"Xiao Yu, do you have any vendetta with the Punishment Hall?"
Zhou Yu shook his head.
"No."
"Then that’s bizarre." Ye Zhongshan muttered.
Just then, Zhou Yu’s eyebrows suddenly furrowed, and he anxiously looked around.
"Someone’s coming!"
"An expert!"
As soon as Zhou Yu finished his words, suddenly, a figure swiftly approached, appearing behind Ye Zhongshan.
"Old Ye, over ten Emperor Realm experts have arrived outside."
"They’re from the Punishment Hall."
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhongshan looked up at Zhou Yu.
"Heh, I was just wondering why the Punishment Hall was targeting you."
"Unexpectedly, they arrived so quickly!"
"It seems we’ll soon have the answer."
Zhou Yu immediately said:
"I’ll deal with them."
Zhou Yu was just about to move when Ye Zhongshan halted him.
"Heh, don’t rush. On the turf of my Ye Family, let my Ye Family handle this."
After speaking, Ye Zhongshan instructed the person behind him:
"Go, hold them off."
"If they dare to force their way in, act immediately!"
"Yes, Old Ye!"
The elderly figure flashed and headed straight outside...
