The imagined danger did not materialize.
The two remained silent and went their separate ways without saying anything further.
night.
Ye Kang was reading a book in the courtyard.
We still know too little about this world. It's good to occasionally look at history and learn more.
At this moment, Xie Xueting rushed in, her face full of excitement.
Ye Kang raised his eyelids and asked, "Uncle Xueting, have you found out?"
"I understand, I understand! This matter caused quite a stir today, it almost escalated into a fight!" Xie Xueting's face was filled with the excitement of watching a good show.
Ye Kang closed the book and said with great interest, "Oh? Tell me in detail."
Xie Xueting cleared his throat and said, "After we returned this morning, the Wang family and the Shi family went crazy. The two families mobilized countless martial artists to search the entire city and even put pressure on the city lord's mansion, managing to seal off the city for two hours!"
"So arrogant?"
"Well, after all, the four major families are very powerful, and the city lord isn't stupid, so naturally he wouldn't offend them. The key thing is that they practically turned Jinling City upside down, but they couldn't find a trace of Wang Yintai. Their faces were as black as charcoal!"
Xie Xueting couldn't help but laugh out loud.
But while watching the show, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Ye Kang, how exactly did you dispose of Wang Yintai's body? How could you leave no trace of it?"
Ye Kang smiled and said, "I have my own methods, but if I tell you, they won't work."
“I understand, but since neither of the two families can find Wang Yintai, the wedding has become the biggest joke of the day, and they've completely lost face. However, I also have some friends in the Shi family, and they say that the young widow of the Shi family also disappeared for a while, and only returned after Wang Yintai disappeared…”
"Looks like we did a good deed. How's it going now? Has a fight broken out?"
"Almost! The head of the Shi family angrily rebuked the Wang family, saying they were untrustworthy and playing games with people, and threatened to chop up Wang Yintai. The two families are now at odds and could erupt at any moment."
"Then that's none of our business. Uncle Xueting, go back. As for what happened today, you..."
"Don't worry! I don't know anything!"
Xie Xueting made a serious statement before leaving as if nothing had happened.
Ye Kang couldn't help but laugh.
It would be a miracle if the Wang and Shi families could find Wang Yintai; his body is still inside their own black jade treasures.
But I can't leave it in there forever, it's disgusting, I need to find a better place to dispose of it.
As he was pondering, a servant trotted over, cupped his hands in greeting to Ye Kang from outside the courtyard, and said, "Young Master, someone is looking for you."
"Find me?"
Ye Kang was puzzled for a moment.
He was quite familiar with this servant, who had often given him tips before, so he was very concerned about Ye Kang's affairs and came to inform him personally.
He said, "There are two people coming, a burly man and a petite girl. Oh, by the way, the girl has many bells tied to her wrists."
"Okay, go ahead, I'll be there shortly."
After the servants left, Ye Kang revealed a strange expression.
This combination is so familiar; it sounds just like the two Qinglin Guards I encountered in Jiayang City.
Although they were genuine Azure Scale Guards, they were weak and had only been with the organization for a short time. They were just low-level rookie temporary workers, assigned to whatever was needed and doing odd jobs.
I never expected that they would be sent to Jiangnan.
The temporary workers were suddenly transferred here, which means the Qinglin Guard has something to do.
Ye Kang was now an unofficial official of the Qinglin Guard, so he couldn't be negligent. He immediately went back to his room and changed into the new white clothes.
When he arrived at the gate of the Xie residence, the servant pointed to the side.
Sure enough, the two Azure Scale Guards looked at him with smiles, and the next second, all three of their expressions changed at the same time.
Ye Kang was amazed by the speed of their growth. In such a short time, they had both reached the fifth rank of Xiantian. Their talent was truly remarkable. No wonder they were able to become Qinglin Guards so early.
The two men were astonished by Ye Kang's strength; they couldn't see through him at all!
After a moment of surprise, the little girl with the bell walked over briskly and said familiarly, "Lord Ye, we meet again."
Ye Kang nodded and said, "How have you been? You two are visiting so late at night, is there something you need?"
Upon hearing this, the burly man made a gesture of invitation.
Ye Kang understood immediately, and the three of them simultaneously used their lightness skills to leap onto the tallest rooftop in the vicinity, making sure no one was around.
The girl then said, "We haven't met before. Let me introduce myself. My name is Ning Tong, code name Bell. His name is Xiao Yang, code name Iron Tower. Just call us by our code names, it'll get used to it."
Ye Kang frowned as he listened and said, "The two of you still haven't explained your purpose."
Lingdang sighed and said, "It was the garrison commander of Tianying Town who sent us. It's the garrison commander of Jinling. Recently, for some reason, a few demons have been causing even more trouble, so he had to ask headquarters for help. Besides us, temporary workers are already on their way."
"The Guardian of the Sky Eagle..." This was the first time Ye Kang had heard of the mysterious guardian's title.
It seems the situation is getting more and more serious; they're starting to call in reinforcements.
He asked, "What exactly do I need to do?"
"We don't know either. The manager told us to take you to the branch office. The specific tasks should be coming down soon."
"Let's go."
Ye Kang nodded, and the three of them headed straight for the Qinglin branch.
Meanwhile, the streets were bustling with activity.
The warriors from the Shi and Wang families were still searching everywhere, unwilling to give up, determined to find Wang Yintai.
Meanwhile, large numbers of masked people headed off in different directions towards their respective branches, filling the streets with constant noise and hurried footsteps.
Ordinary families in Jinling City locked their doors tightly, huddled under their blankets, trembling with fear, wondering why there had been such a commotion all of a sudden.
Ye Kang and his two companions quickly returned to the branch, which was already crowded with masked men, all of whom were among the strongest.
They looked at the bells and the iron tower, some with envy in their eyes.
The three ignored them and headed straight for the confidential room, where the manager was directing his troops. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ye Kang.
"You're back, kid. You've been causing trouble since you weren't at the branch office. You were the one who ran the Grand Canal Market, weren't you?"
"Shopkeeper, that's Xie Jinghong."
"Don't give me that. I know you too well. You managed to fool Xie Yuan and even break through to the seventh rank. The Imperial City Division really found a gem."
"What! Rank 7!"
Both the bell and the iron tower stared wide-eyed at Ye Kang in disbelief.
No wonder I couldn't see through his strength. Unknowingly, he had already suppressed me by two major realms!
I thought the two of them were already rare geniuses in the Azure Scale Guard, so where did these fierce generals come from?
Their expressions became much more restrained, and they dared not look directly at Ye Kang anymore.
After mentioning it briefly, the shopkeeper didn't continue the topic. Instead, he said seriously, "This is a big operation. The garrison commander personally gave the order. The more experts the better. With your strength, you are naturally on the list of those to be dispatched."
Ye Kang looked puzzled: "What big move is this that's causing such a commotion?"
The shopkeeper's eyes narrowed, and his lips trembled slightly.
“Slay the Crimson Darkness Demon.”
