National Highway G-01, a Mercedes car departed Celestial Sea, heading towards Capital City.

"What happened?" In the passenger seat, Liu Tianyun slightly furrowed her brows and blinked as she asked.

She wasn't stupid; it clicked instantly that Ye Huan hadn't come to Celestial Sea for no reason, asking Director Zhou about her changes before and after being adopted.

Ye Huan turned his head, glanced at Liu Tianyun, and after hesitating for a while, decided it was necessary to inform Liu Tianyun about this matter.

He rubbed his aching forehead and said, "If I told you someone used your genetic sequence to recreate another you, would you believe it?"

"Are you talking about the Empress?"

Liu Tianyun's intelligence was intimidating.

Ye Huan nodded significantly, "Even though we don't have concrete evidence yet, judging by various intelligence, it's almost one hundred percent certain she is the clone created by Dragon Gate's Di Family."

"No wonder her figure and appearance are so similar to mine, it turns out it's because of this..."

"But, that's not right."

Liu Tianyun wondered, "Clones usually only replicate the body, how come she possesses my childhood memories?"

"I don't know about that either, but the genetic technology controlled by the Di Family is undoubtedly different from what ordinary scientists master," Ye Huan paused here, his eyes showing coldness: "Moreover, as the Di Family's experimental progress has been stalled for years without satisfactory results, they seem intent on discarding her and using her through studying her meridian and body structure, to forcibly push forward the experimental process."

Liu Tianyun's complexion changed slightly: "What should we do then?"

"Whether the Empress is a clone or not, I always consider her a friend, I won't watch her fall into danger with my eyes wide open."

"Besides, she was made from the same mold as you."

"If she gets injured or anything like that, I couldn't possibly accept it inside my heart, so I have to find a way to rescue her from the enemy's hands!"

"Currently, there's some good news, but this good news is also immense bad news."

"The Di Family's Vice Patriarch, Judgement Dragon God Di Asura, has defected to the Sequence faction. He doesn't want the Di Family's experiment to succeed, thus secretly hiding the Empress, or perhaps sending her out of Huaxia, into Sequence's hands."

"This means the Empress is temporarily not in life-threatening danger, I have time to figure out how to rescue her! If successful, this clue might become a breakthrough, digging out more secretive figures and more astounding intelligence!"

"But if I can't seize this opportunity, the clues will be completely severed, and the Empress's life..."

Ye Huan paused for quite a while, his brows tightly knitted like the character "川".

Just about to continue speaking.

Liu Tianyun stretched out her soft, fair jade hand, gently covering his mouth, and said: "No dispiriting words allowed, my man Liu Tianyun never admits defeat, nor has the possibility of failing." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Ye Huan was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled lightly, his eyes radiating two rays of brilliance.

Indeed, he has roamed the Jianghu for so many years, and "failure" has never been in his vocabulary!

"Cheer up, defeat that damn Sequence as soon as possible, I'm waiting for you to take me to an island for seclusion, living a blissful life like a hidden paradise." Liu Tianyun lightly kissed Ye Huan, raising her small pink fist as an encouragement.

Ye Huan felt moved.

At that moment.

"Ring ring ring."

The sudden ringing of the phone was heard.

Generally speaking, phone calls shouldn't be answered while driving.

But now it's one o'clock in the deep night, a phone call at this time, without a doubt, is bound to be urgent, with something important.

Ye Huan took out his phone, clicked to answer.

Just as he expected.

On the other end, Chen Fangzhou had explosive news!

"Young Master Ye, I've mobilized all the subordinate forces of the Chen Family intelligence organization, according to your requirements, to check the entry and exit conditions of major coastal city ports, resulting in the discovery that last night, a middle-aged woman wearing a veil, with a figure and appearance resembling Di Asura's wife Xiao Yu, carrying a young girl, boarded the snakehead's boat in Binhai City and defected out of Huaxia!"

"I temporarily can't investigate where the snakehead and their destination are!"

"However, the snakehead is already on the way back to Huaxia, do you need me to head to Binhai now to control him?"

"I'll go myself!"

Ye Huan said solemnly!

Sending Liu Tianyun back to Capital City's Tingxiang Pavilion, he immediately turned around and stepped on the gas, speeding towards Binhai!

...

At five in the deep night, the most major highway in Binhai City, National Highway K-78.

Normally, the entrance of the highway is usually very desolate, basically only cars and trucks pass through here, it's a place where even birds won't go.

But now, in the middle of the night, there was a sea of people!

And the hundreds of people blocking both sides of the road were all wearing luxurious clothes, with extraordinary temperament, clearly upper-class individuals at a glance!

Without exception, these people are top merchants from all walks of life in Binhai City, with net worth generally above 3 billion, high social status, deep background, and enormous influence!

They lined up here wanting to welcome someone!

To be precise, welcome a giant-level existence — commercial elder from the Chen Family, controlling trillion-dollar funds, able to kill any listed company with a single thought or gesture, and able to grow a small workshop to a billion-scale with a flick of his wrist, Chen Donghai!

It's said that Chen Donghai's 60th birthday banquet held in Celestial Sea City has been successfully concluded, and he plans to take this opportunity to tour around Huaxia, appreciating the fine scenery of the motherland!

And the first stop on his journey is Binhai!

Upon hearing the news, important figures of Binhai with remarkable status arrived promptly at the highway entrance, intending to greet Chen Donghai, to build relations, and subsequently gain benefits for themselves!

Soon, after a Mercedes sped past, everyone clearly saw a Lamborghini Veneno with the license plate "Jing A66666" quickly approaching them, and they all started screaming!

But before they could scream for long, something happened that left them all in shock!

"Stop, Saint!"

"Saint, stop!!!"

"Saint!!!!"

Only to see the Lamborghini Veneno's passenger-side window fully open, an elderly man in a red jacket leaned half of his body out the window!

He was filled with urgency and delight, waving constantly to the Mercedes that had already driven a kilometer away, exclaiming incessantly!

Intrigued by flattery and fawning in his tone!

His demeanor was outright sycophantic!

Moreover, he kept urging the driver to speed up!

Trying to get the Mercedes to stop!

But the Mercedes didn't stop; instead, it accelerated!

"Damn, why is the Chen Family still 'haunting'? I still ran into them!" In the Mercedes driver's seat, Ye Huan was covered in black lines, reaching the utmost level of speechlessness; stopping was out of the question.

Otherwise, those loyal Chen Donghai bootlickers blocking the highway would surely flatter him once they know his identity, it would drive him crazy!

Besides, he has important matters to attend to!

Simultaneously, Chen Donghai didn't give up, continuously calling out to Ye Huan!

Until he was too exhausted, he uttered a sigh full of regret, and sat back inside the car!

He thought Ye Huan had finished his business in Celestial Sea and now had some free time, hence he wanted to invite Ye Huan to tour Huaxia together, to strengthen the relationship between the Chen Family and the new king of Huaxia's Ancient Martial Realm!

Unfortunately, it seemed that Ye Huan didn't hear? Or perhaps, he still had matters to handle, no time?

Chen Donghai patted the edge of the car window a couple of times, expressing his regret.

Unbeknownst, his actions made the numerous magnates in Binhai City dumbfounded immediately!

Complete silence ensued in the venue, as the Lamborghini Veneno "zoomed" past them, raising a cloud of yellow dust as they were utterly scattered in the haze, their eyes widened, round!

Who on earth could make China's entrepreneurial god, status exalted like a real deity, who was always stern and serious like Chen Donghai, show such a bootlicker side?!

Not known!

But, everyone knows a super giant more awe-inspiring than Chen Donghai has arrived in Binhai City!

This news spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred...

Soon, it spread throughout Binhai!

Causing a stir in Binhai's upper circles!
