Chapter 63 Join forces
"What? Is the news confirmed?" Inside the Bei family mansion, Bei Yan also received the news that Xu Bo was the mastermind behind everything.

"Chief, the news has already spread throughout Starmoon City," a servant replied. "And I've heard that One-Eyed has been silenced."

“Since that’s the case, there’s no smoke without fire. I think the news is probably true.” Bei Yan instructed, “Send more people to monitor the Xu family and see what they’re up to. Find out everything they do.”

"Father, I've brought that brat Ye Feng over." Bei Ye returned to the Bei family mansion just after Bei Yan finished giving the order.

"Ye Feng? Who is he? Didn't you go to investigate One-Eye?" Bei Yan asked in confusion. He had ordered Bei Ye to investigate One-Eye, so why did he bring back a young boy?

“I found out that Ye Feng left the city with Bei Linhan, so he must know very well what happened,” Bei Ye said, but he didn’t look at Ye Feng beside him at all when he spoke.

Bei Yan then began to pay attention to Ye Feng in front of him. This kid actually came out of the city with his daughter, so Bei Yan couldn't help but take a closer look.

Ye Feng was also paying attention to Bei Yan in front of him. At the same time, Ye Feng was secretly surprised that he could not see through the level of the person in front of him, which meant that the person in front of him was at least a Spirit Form Warrior.

"It seems there really are experts everywhere." Ye Feng thought to himself. He realized that his previous approach was wrong. Against high-level opponents, no amount of skills mattered; level was the most important thing.

While Ye Feng was lost in thought, Bei Yan was already paying attention to him. Bei Yan nodded secretly in approval at Ye Feng's calm demeanor in front of him.

"Ye Feng, right? My name is Bei Yan." Bei Yan asked, "I wonder what happened when you went out with Bei Linhan."

"It's like this..." Ye Feng felt there was nothing to hide about this, so he told him everything.

"It really is that bastard from the Xu family," Bei Yan said angrily. "He's really lawless, daring to provoke even someone from my Bei family."

"Father, I'm taking men to raze the Xu family to the ground." Bei Ye clenched his fists, trying his best to control his anger.

"Sigh." Bei Yan sighed and said, "The Xu family must have been prepared long ago, and internal strife is prohibited in Star Moon City. If we make a move now, we probably won't gain any advantage."

Bei Yan was also considering the direction of his family. Now the Xu family must have joined forces with several other families that had a bad relationship with the Bei family. If they took action, they would not only not gain any advantage, but would also be in the wrong.

"Are we just going to let the Xu family be so arrogant?!" Bei Ye said, dissatisfied.

“This grudge must be avenged, but we cannot act impulsively; we must have a plan,” Bei Yan said coldly.

"I wonder what Chief Bei's plans are. If possible, I'd also like to contribute," Ye Feng suddenly said from the side.

"To destroy the Xu family, we must act quickly and eliminate most of their forces. Otherwise, if we provoke a reaction from other forces, the consequences will be severe," Bei Yan analyzed. "As long as we eliminate the Xu family in a flash, the others will probably not dare to do anything to us."

"Then let's do it this way. I'll deal with Xu Bo first, and then we'll work together to take down the Xu family," Ye Feng said calmly.

"You're so confident you can infiltrate? The Xu family's security has been even tighter than usual lately," Bei Yan said, squinting. Bei Yan clearly didn't believe Ye Feng's words. Even he himself wasn't entirely sure he could infiltrate, let alone this guy in front of him.

“Then we’ll wait and see. Let me know when your Bei family is ready to make a move,” Ye Feng replied. “However, I don’t want to wait too long. If you don’t take action in the next couple of days, I’ll deal with Xu Bo myself.”

After saying this, Ye Feng did not linger at the Bei family's house and left on his own.

"Father, what do you think? Should we cooperate with that kid?" Bei Ye asked from the side.

“Since this kid was able to survive One-Eye, he must be quite capable. I estimate that One-Eye was killed by this kid.” Bei Yan frowned and thought for a long time. “Tell everyone to get ready. We will launch a night raid on the Xu family in the next two days.”

"Father, I heard Ye Feng has come." After giving instructions, Bei Linhan came to the main hall and asked.

Although Bei Linhan was nominally confined by Bei Yan, the servants did not dare to go too far in carrying it out. As long as Bei Linhan did not leave the Bei family mansion, she could still move around freely in other places.

Upon hearing that Bei Ye had brought a young man in, Bei Linhan inquired and confirmed that the person must be Ye Feng, which excited her so much that she came to the main hall.

Actually, Bei Linhan and Ye Feng hadn't been separated for very long, but for some reason, Bei Linhan missed Ye Feng terribly and longed to see him.

Unfortunately, Bei Linhan arrived too late; Ye Feng had already taken his leave.

"How dare you! I told you to stay in your room and reflect on your actions. What are you doing out here?" Bei Yan could see through Bei Linhan's thoughts. Although Bei Yan had a good impression of Ye Feng, he was still not happy about letting his daughter be with this kid who had appeared out of nowhere.

"Hmph, why are you being so fierce? If he's not here, fine, I'm leaving." Looking around, Bei Linhan didn't see Ye Feng and realized he was probably gone. "This is too much, she has no manners at all." Bei Linhan's abrupt departure infuriated Bei Yan. In the past, Bei Linhan was always very obedient, so her disobedience naturally led Bei Yan to blame Ye Feng.

"Father, it's best to keep my sister away from Ye Feng. I suspect that the person Xu Bo really sent out to deal with is this kid." Bei Ye clearly didn't have a good impression of Ye Feng either, and naturally blamed all the problems on Ye Feng.

“I understand that, but since this kid is on our side now, we should naturally make use of him,” Bei Yan said coldly.

"Master, someone outside wants to see you. The person says he is from the Xu family."

"The Xu family!" Bei Ye roared. "They still dare to send people here at a time like this? I'll wipe them out!"

"Bei Ye, calm down!" Bei Yan scolded. "You're not composed at all. How can you shoulder important responsibilities in the future?"

"Father, why do they still dare to send people over at this time? What are they trying to do?"

"Hmph, I think they just want to say it's a misunderstanding, and probably want to negotiate." Bei Yan said coldly. "Perfect, this is an opportunity. Let's give them a smokescreen. Bei Ye, you go and receive them, pretend to negotiate, and extort some things from them."

"But remember, you must not ask for too little, otherwise they will become suspicious."

"Yes, Father," Bei Ye replied and left.

After leaving the Bei family, Ye Feng visited several other merchant guilds and bought a lot of crafting materials. Of course, Ye Feng is now a wealthy man with hundreds of thousands of purple gold coins, so he can afford to buy some materials.

Ye Feng is preparing to craft a piece of equipment. He already has three rune stones in hand, so he can consider getting a decent piece of equipment.

"Let's make a defensive armor first; my defense is still too poor," Ye Feng said, analyzing the situation.

Ye Feng's package was full of crafting materials, which he had spent 100,000 purple gold coins to acquire, all for the purpose of crafting a decent suit of armor. After all, the quality of equipment crafted is a matter of luck, and Ye Feng naturally wanted to pursue high-quality equipment, which would require consuming a large amount of materials to craft a large number of pieces of equipment.

Activating the crafting auxiliary function, although using crafting skills in certain special places can greatly increase the probability of producing high-level equipment, Ye Feng currently does not have such favorable conditions, so he can only craft as is.

Ye Feng had almost exhausted all the equipment and materials he had bought before he finally crafted a piece of armor that he was fairly satisfied with. To say it was satisfactory was a bit of an exaggeration; it was just average, with the highest defense among all armors. However, Ye Feng was unlucky and didn't get any hidden high-level attributes.

However, Ye Feng thought that it should be enough for now, since he would definitely need to replace the equipment later, so there was no need to make it too good.

"What a pity. If I had gotten the number nine rune during the auction, I could have used it on my equipment." Ye Feng took out the two rune stones he had obtained and looked at them, remembering the number nine rune stone that Xu Shao had snatched from him during the auction.

"The Bright Crystal is also with this guy. It seems I have to make a trip to the Xu family."

Ye Feng made up his mind that no matter what the Bei family planned, he would definitely visit Young Master Xu as soon as possible. Ye Feng was more than willing to do murder and robbery.

The Bei family didn't keep Ye Feng waiting long; Bei Ye came to find Ye Feng the next day.

"Young Master Bei has arrived. I suppose your Bei family has also made up its mind." Ye Feng was not surprised to see the Bei family arrive. He believed that anyone would seek revenge for this matter. If they let it go like this, they probably wouldn't be able to survive in the future.

"Ye Feng, I'm here to inform you that the Bei family is preparing to make our move tonight. I wonder if you're ready. Don't mess things up." Bei Ye said bluntly. In fact, the Bei family had already made thorough preparations for the night raid on the Xu family. Cooperating with Ye Feng from the inside was just for double insurance. Even without Ye Feng's cooperation, the Bei family was still very confident in this operation. Therefore, Bei Ye's attitude towards Ye Feng was not so friendly.

Of course, there were other reasons why Bei Ye was not in a good mood towards Ye Feng. In her heart, Bei Ye believed that it was Ye Feng's responsibility that Bei Linhan was injured and returned this time. If Bei Linhan hadn't been with Ye Feng, this jinx, how could she have gotten into trouble?

Bei Ye believed he had planned the operation meticulously. If it weren't for Bei Yan's orders, Bei Ye wouldn't have bothered to inform Ye Feng at all, as he considered Ye Feng to be nothing more than a boastful guy.

"You don't need to worry about that. Just do your own thing when the time comes." Seeing that the other party's attitude was not good, Ye Feng was not polite either. After all, he had a good impression of Bei Linhan, but that did not mean that he had a good impression of everyone in the Bei family.

"Kid, you've got a big mouth. I hope you don't cause me any trouble later." Bei Ye sensed Ye Feng's hostility, threw down a harsh remark, and left.

Ye Feng didn't really intend to hold these matters against Bei Ye. Now that the decision had been made, Ye Feng would focus his energy on the Xu family.

In the evening, Ye Feng, still cautious, inquired about the Xu family's residence and secretly observed the surrounding area for a while to get a better understanding of the situation. Ye Feng didn't want any troublesome people to escape secretly, as that would cause too much trouble later.
