CHAPTER 1205: CHAPTER 1205: THE FALLEN YOUNG MASTER! (PART 3)

A full moon illuminates the mountain peak.

On Moonlit Peak, the villa’s gates are tightly shut. The security guard, holding a flashlight, regularly checks left and right. After patrolling a circle, he returns to his room to sleep.

"Sigh..." The security guard dozes off, feeling a bit weary. Just as he’s about to return to his room after scanning the surroundings, he suddenly sees a shadow landing in front of the villa gates.

The guard thought his eyes were deceiving him. After rubbing them and looking again, there truly was a silhouette.

It was a back view.

"Who are you? Who let you in without permission? I advise you to leave immediately, or I’ll call the police!" the guard threatened.

Ye Qiu turned and looked at the guard, without responding. Seeing such arrogance, the guard raised his voice: "Hey! Do you know whose territory this is?"

"Whose territory?" Ye Qiu asked, without revealing that this villa was indeed his.

"Let me tell you, this is the private villa of Mr. Ye from Capital City. If you dare to trespass, you’ll disappear from this world," the guard said viciously.

"Hehe..."

Ye Qiu chuckled, "Alright, I’d like to see how I disappear from this world."

Then, Ye Qiu placed his finger on the fingerprint scanner, and with a click, the door opened. As Ye Qiu entered the villa, he glanced back at the guard.

At this moment, the guard was dumbfounded. This person could actually unlock the door.

How could this be possible?

The guard’s mind spun rapidly, unable to understand how this stranger could enter the villa.

"Could it be..." the guard suddenly thought of someone — the true owner of the villa.

"Is he Ye... Mr. Ye?" the guard suddenly realized that apart from Young Master Song, only one other person could enter the villa so effortlessly.

And that would be Mr. Ye.

"Mr. Ye... has returned..." The guard’s face lit up with joy, then immediately turned to deep self-reproach. How could he have been so blind not to recognize Mr. Ye, and even mention Mr. Ye in front of the actual owner of this place? The guard felt he’d embarrassed himself thoroughly. But when he thought about Ye Qiu’s status in Capital City, a figure like a god, his spirits lifted immediately.

No wonder his great aunt had said that coming here as a security guard was the greatest opportunity of his life. It was indeed correct, as he had truly met the legendary figure Ye Qiu.

Upon Ye Qiu’s return to the villa at Moonlit Peak, few people knew. The guard quickly called Song Jie. Upon hearing that Ye Qiu was at Moonlit Peak, Song Jie immediately dropped everything and hurried there.

"Jiang Hao, Luo Ming, I don’t care where you are, you must be at the Moonlit Peak villa in twenty minutes," Song Jie called the other two members of the Iron Triangle.

Jiang Hao, who was sleeping with a woman, almost got scared to death. He pulled on his pants, grabbed his clothes, and left, leaving the woman in bed utterly confused.

Twenty minutes later, Song Jie stood at the foot of Moonlit Peak, checked his watch, and frowned; those two hadn’t arrived yet.

After a while, Jiang Hao and Luo Ming arrived. Song Jie merely said, "Mr. Ye is waiting for us up there." Jiang Hao and Luo Ming shuddered and swiftly climbed the mountain behind Song Jie.

Inside the villa.

The three of them felt a bit uneasy. Suddenly receiving instructions from Ye Qiu, even Song Jie was a bit apprehensive, not knowing what Ye Qiu wanted.

They had been in there for some time. Ye Qiu just kept drinking tea without saying a word, making the three uneasy on their feet.

Finally, Ye Qiu spoke his first words, which made the three of them breathe a sigh of relief.

"I’ve brought you three here to assign you a task."

"Mr. Ye, please speak. We three will do our utmost to fulfill your command," Song Jie pledged.

Ye Qiu briefly mentioned his task of finding sealers. He knew this would be challenging for the three, but he couldn’t concern himself with that now. With Earth’s calamity approaching, he must find more sealers and eliminate them swiftly.

After explaining this matter, Ye Qiu recalled what Song Jie had previously mentioned and asked, "Is the Ye family still acting behind the scenes?"

Song Jie stepped forward, "Since your last instructions, Mr. Ye, I met with Old Master Ye and conveyed your message. The Ye family hasn’t utilized any resources since and has been very peaceful."

Ye Qiu nodded, knowing that Old Master Ye understood his intentions. It was only natural that they wouldn’t act.

"But it’s the Wang family that continues to obstruct the development of our three families."

"Oh? Does the Wang family not know that I’ve returned?" Ye Qiu questioned.

Song Jie continued, "I made Mr. Ye’s presence known to the Wang family, but they seem unafraid."

"The Wang family still hasn’t learned fear!" Ye Qiu remarked. Once, he had killed their War God-level ancestor in front of the Wang family, yet it seems they still don’t fear him enough.

Ye Qiu’s gaze shifted, "Has anything unusual occurred with the Wang family recently, or have there been any unfamiliar faces?"

Song Jie thought for a while, then shook his head. But Luo Ming suddenly spoke, "I know of an unfamiliar face that’s been close to Wang Lin. I saw it unintentionally."

Speaking of Wang Lin, who was once one of the famous four young masters of Capital City, but since the War God-level ancestor within his clan died, the Wang family declined, no longer bearing the prestige it once had, and even his title as one of the four young masters plummeted.

Ye Qiu vaguely remembered Wang Lin, a somewhat scheming playboy, though not quite on Liu Wen’s level, one of the four young masters.

Since the Wang family dared to act even knowing Ye Qiu’s presence, they must have something to rely on.

"I’ll handle the Wang family. You don’t need to worry about it. Just focus on the task I assigned," Ye Qiu decided to visit the Wang family again. He suspected that their audacity despite not fearing him indicated they had a powerful backer, possibly an awakened sealer.

No one understood better than him what sealers meant. So regardless of who stood behind the Wang family, he had to find out.

After Song Jie and the other two left Moonlit Peak, they began gathering information about sealers, while Ye Qiu leaped down from the peak.

Soaring through the mist-covered sky before dawn, he moved his feet and vanished into the sky.

Capital City. The Wang family.

As the heir and future pillar of the Wang family, following the death of the War God-level ancestor, and with his father falling ill, Wang Lin became the family’s support.

Once a bustling Wang family, since the day that man arrived, it became desolate. Even those who once greeted him with flattering ’Young Master Wang’ were now dismissive, no longer as they once were.

All of this, Wang Lin attributed to that man. It was because of him that Wang Lin had fallen to his current state.

"Ye Qiu... while others call you Mr. Ye, I, Wang Lin, won’t. You think you’re invincible, but don’t realize that I’ve found someone even more formidable. In front of him, you’re just an ant."

In the dilapidated courtyard of the Wang family, Wang Lin’s voice echoed eerily, sounding both terrifying and chilling.
