C1023 The Ye Family's Crisis
The middle-aged man's speed was very fast. He entered the crowd's line of sight from a hundred meters away.
This speed inevitably attracted everyone's attention.
However, when the middle-aged man appeared before everyone, many people started to frown.
He saw that the middle-aged man's hair was in a mess, his forehead was covered in sweat, and his black clothes were covered in dust.
It was hard to imagine how an ordinary expert could be in such a sorry state.
"You can't go in there." At this moment, several voices sounded from the path that the middle-aged man was walking down.
Upon hearing the sound, everyone turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound.
He saw several security guards of the Xia Family running towards him with truncheons in hand.
One of the slightly more powerful security guards, upon seeing the middle-aged man who had just barged in, actually rushed to the front and back of the crowd.
"Chief, please forgive this humble one for my dereliction of duty. He actually allowed an outsider to barge in." He hastened his steps and rushed to Xia Cang's side. After apologizing to Xia Cang, he followed Xia Cang and said: "I will make up for it now. I will go with my brothers and kick him out."
As he spoke, the security guard lifted his baton and walked towards the middle-aged man.
However, before he even took a few steps, Xia Cang flashed and blocked in front of him.
"Middle stage of the Heaven Stage, you are not his match." Then he shook his head and said with his back to the security guard.
As soon as he said that, the guard's hand that was holding the baton started to tremble violently.
Through the middle-aged man's speed, he'd expected that the middle-aged man wasn't an extraordinary person. But he absolutely did not expect that the middle-aged man would be so powerful.
Not only the security guards, even the surrounding people were also stunned.
They obviously never thought that this seemingly pathetic person would actually be a Heaven Stage Ranker.
With just a glance, that middle-aged man knew Xia Cang's strength. Ye Zichen's pupils shrank. He understood that Xia Cang was no ordinary person.
"Old mister, breaking in without permission is my mistake, but I really have something urgent that I need to discuss with Xu Fann, Mr Xu." Thus, he hurriedly explained, "This matter is related to the survival of our family. Old mister, please forgive me."
The middle-aged man's words caused the surrounding people to be shocked in their hearts.
None of them expected that this middle stage Heaven Stage was actually this strong. It was actually related to the bumpkin Xu Fann in their eyes.
Xia Cang didn't expect that the middle-aged man in front of him was related to Xu Fann.
Since Xu Fann was the husband of Xia Family, Zhong Ling'er would not allow anyone to bully Xu Fann. Therefore, Xia Cang shouldn't be angry.
"Breaking into the Xia Family is a mistake, but I know that you have apologized, and I see that you really have something urgent to take care of, so I will let you off this time." Therefore, he took the opportunity to apologize and said to the middle-aged man: "Xu Fann is over there, hurry over."
While speaking, Xia Cang turned around and pointed in the direction of Xu Fann.
"Thank you very much." Hearing Xia Cang's voice, the middle-aged man cupped his hands and said his thanks.
Then, he took large strides and ran towards Xu Fann.
On the other side, Xu Fann, who saw Xia Cang let the middle-aged man go, also heaved a sigh of relief.
This middle-aged man was no stranger. He was the strongest assassin with Harbour Island and the one with the Scaled Snake's dagger, Ye Lin.
He turned around and cupped his fists towards Xia Cang, expressing his gratitude. Xu Fann set his gaze on Ye Lin.
"What happened to your Ye Family, why did you directly barge in?" Xu Fann asked in doubt when Ye Lin walked up to him.
He really didn't think that Ye Lin would come to Yangzhou to find him from Harbour Island.
However, he could tell from Ye Lin's state. In these few days, something big must have happened to the Harbour Island.
"Mr Xu, something really bad happened. The Patriarch of Ye Family transferred the position to someone else." Ye Lin panted heavily as he spoke anxiously.
Hearing the sound, Xu Fann's eyes widened and he froze on the spot.
He had once thought about the various problems that would arise from the Ye Family. However, he had never expected that Ye Family would be used as a major change.
After a brief moment of blankness, Xu Fann, who realized that things were not that simple, hurriedly asked: "What exactly happened, you tell me everything."
Ye Lin didn't answer immediately. Instead, he took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.
"A few days ago, you left the Ye Family to rush to the Xia Family to invite them. But as soon as you left, our young master came back." Soon after, he said to Xu Fann, "When he came back, he said that the head of the family had violated the rules and joined forces with a foreign enemy. He asked the head of the family to change the position and give it to him."
"If the Patriarch doesn't want to, he'll injure the Patriarch, and then injure all the rebels in Ye Family, and tie them up."
"Also, tell the family head that if they do not submit to him by sunset tomorrow, they will become his sacrificial offering after he ascends to become the family head."
At this point, Ye Lin swallowed his saliva and moistened his parched throat.
"Because no one in the Ye Family wants him to be the Patriarch, he became angry from embarrassment. Today, he built the altar high in the morning and moved the sacrificial ceremony to tomorrow afternoon."
"If we can't save the Patriarch and the others by noon tomorrow, the Patriarch and the others will all be sacrificed by him." Then he continued.
Due to being too anxious, Ye Lin's voice was breaking.
However, Xu Fann heard many points of doubt from Ye Lin's words.
"Don't worry, I'll deal with him once I fully understand the situation." He patted Ye Lin's shoulder and comforted him simply, then asked: "How exactly is he? You have so many Heaven Stage experts, could it be that you can't take care of him?
"His strength is only at the early stage of the Heaven Stage, but he has at least six or seven middle stage Heaven Stage by his side. Hearing the inquiry, Ye Lin shook his head: "As for our Ye Family, we have the complete combat power. Only the few mid-stage Heaven Stage s that you subdued previously, are all severely injured.
"I can only rely on my movement technique to escape from the encirclement and come to you for help."
At the end, Ye Lin felt a bit embarrassed. If Xu Fann saved Ye Family this time, it would be equivalent to saving Ye Family twice.
Their Harbour Island was more or less a huge family, so relying on the help of others continuously still made him feel a little awkward.
"Six or seven of them are at the middle stage of the Heaven Stage, and two of them are at the high level of the Heaven Stage." Xu Fann frowned and mumbled in an awkward moment.
One had to say, the number of experts was indeed quite astonishing.
Even Xu Fann himself had some problems that he wasn't 100% sure of dealing with.
After all, the reason why he was able to take down Jiang Feng and the others before was all because of his schemes.
But this time, just the amount of time he had was not enough for him to come up with a good idea.
