After listening to Liu Zixuan’s words, Xiaoliuye and Diwu Qingfeng felt waves in their hearts. If the Shi Family patriarch hadn’t called just now and had instead gone directly against Liu Zixuan, they would have been really sweating bullets.

Now it seems that this smokeless battle has been won by Liu Zixuan!

And it was a great victory, hitting two birds with one stone!

Firstly, with the Shi family’s promise, they would be allies in the future.

Secondly, today’s incident directly intimidated those two-faced guys in the East and West City, making them dare not underestimate Liu Zixuan anymore.

At such a young age, he has a decisive demeanor, terrifying strength, and meticulous thoughts. Xiaoliuye and Diwu Qingfeng truly were convinced!

At the same time, they secretly felt fortunate that they stood on Liu Zixuan’s side, otherwise, their families’ century-old foundations would have been completely destroyed, uprooted by Liu Zixuan himself.

Beside the natural pit in the West City Suburbs.

Two patriarchs and leaders of new family forces were being pressed by the Shadow Guards, their expressions turning even worse as they watched Liu Zixuan and the Shi Family disciples approaching.

They had held onto the slimmest hope, fantasizing that perhaps the rich and powerful Shi Family, once angered by Liu Zixuan, would directly send strong people over.

To kill Liu Zixuan, the legendary figure of the East and West Cities, and the Shi Family would replace Liu Zixuan, letting them survive.

But now, the Shi Family disciples were brought over like homeless dogs, clearly bursting their bubble of unrealistic dreams once again.

Liu Zixuan looked at the two men in front of him and said with a mocking smile, "I’m really sorry, I was dealing with some matters over there and delayed your reporting to Yama Hall."

"Liu Zixuan, I... I know I was wrong, can you give me a chance?"

"A chance?" Liu Zixuan’s eyes were filled with coldness. "I’ve given you guys a chance, but did you take it?"

"I... I’m willing to give everything I have!" the man shouted in panic.

"Sorry, your everything isn’t even enough to fill the gaps in my teeth!"

After Liu Zixuan talked, he waved his hand to Xiaolinzi, "Do it nicely. Escort these self-proclaimed big shots to Yama Hall."

"Okay!"

Xiaolinzi grinned, and the Shadow Guards directly pushed those guys into the deep pit.

Picked up the shovel, he started to throw sand into it.

Watching those people make a miserable scene in the pit, Liu Zixuan pinched his forehead, "Let’s go, let’s go. I’m too soft-hearted to look at such a pathetic sight."

"Haha." Xiaoliuye smiled knowingly, as he and Diwu Qingfeng left towards the West City with Liu Zixuan.

"Gentlemen, I just returned and have some things to handle. I won’t be inviting you to dinner today," Liu Zixuan said after arriving at West City and stopped the car beside the road.

"Alright then, tomorrow’s my treat. There’s a new restaurant in East City that’s very good," said Xiaoliuye and Diwu Qingfeng as they got off midway and parted ways with Liu Zixuan.

Liu Zixuan drove back to Yuquan Bar.

Upon entering, both Diwu Qingrou and Bei Meiyin had already left, given the delicate relationship they had with Liu Zixuan, sticking around any longer would be awkward.

The remaining beautiful ladies were sitting together chatting and making dumplings.

Seeing their virtuous appearance, Liu Zixuan sat next to them, took out a cigarette and just lit it up, "Third sister, I’ve been back for quite a while, why haven’t I seen that little rascal Luo Xi?"

"In the past, she would have run out causing trouble in all sorts of ways, what’s wrong today? Playing the lady in the family with me?" 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

After saying these words, Liu Zixuan thought An Sanjie would smile and respond. But instead, there was a silent pause.

Blinking, Liu Zixuan stood up, "Why aren’t you speaking?"

An Sanjie put down the dough in her hands, walked to the side to wash her hands, and said to Liu Zixuan, "Come with me."

Liu Zixuan frowned, sensing something might be up with Luo Xi.

Following An Sanjie into the office, he impatiently asked, "What’s going on?"

"Don’t rush." An Sanjie took out an envelope from the cabinet and handed it to Liu Zixuan, "Take your time reading in the office, I’ll leave you for now!"

After An Sanjie left, Liu Zixuan opened the envelope and the first thing that caught his eye was Luo Xi’s elegant handwriting.

"Zixuan, perhaps when you read this letter, I might have already left the Celestial Capital.

Don’t worry, the place I’m going to is very safe. Apart from being by your side, it should be the safest place.

Please forgive my departure without saying goodbye, please forgive my persistent immaturity.

Since you left the Celestial Capital, I’ve been going daily to the places we spent time together, even in the corners. I miss you so much, everything about you. Yet gradually I realized, beyond this longing, I can’t seem to do anything else.

I don’t want to be a vase-like woman, nor do I want to be a woman of no use to you.

I recall telling you before how much I adore being the woman of a powerful man, and you, Liu Zixuan, exactly fit that role – irreplaceably so.

I dream that as you venture through the Jianghu, a woman by your side should be someone who greatly aids you, like an Emperor and Empress ruling over the kingdom together.

That should be a beautiful scene.

So I’ve decided to cast aside my own immaturity, forget my capriciousness, and face reality to mature step by step.

Zixuan, I love you. When we meet again, may you return these three words to me?

Zixuan, I will be safe. Don’t come looking for me. When I truly become mature, I will find you.

Zixuan, please allow me to be willful one last time in leaving without a word, okay?

Seeing the last line, with the name ’Xi’ at the end, Liu Zixuan’s eyes became moist.

Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath and murmured, "You silly girl, why put yourself through this!"

Once the cigarette finished burning, Liu Zixuan placed the letter back in the envelope, tucked it away, and then walked outside.

The remaining beautiful ladies appeared calm, and it seemed An Sanjie had informed them already.

"Did she... leave on her own?"

"I don’t know." An Sanjie shook her head, "That day, Luo Xi seemed like a completely different person, pulling me through East City on a shopping spree all day. She was very tired and went to sleep after coming back. The next day, she left only that letter, and when I checked the surveillance, it seemed she was picked up by someone."

Liu Zixuan was silent for a moment after hearing An Sanjie’s words, "I remember Luo Xi said before that her parents seemed to be divorced."

"Do you mean one of her parents took her away?" An Sanjie asked.

Liu Zixuan shook his head, "Not sure, but she should be safe, right? I think someday, not too far from now, we’ll meet again."
