Chapter 658: Ye Nantian’s Condition
From the very beginning until now, Ye Nantian has been vehemently denying his involvement in the kidnapping of Cao Wanqing by his son.
This unquestionably displays a fierce protectiveness.
Xiao Shun couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.
Since that’s the case, there is no need for further words!
In an instant, the onlookers felt a blur before their eyes.
Xiao Shun’s figure suddenly appeared before Ye Nantian in a whirlwind.
The people present were all of substantial cultivation.
Yet even so, they failed to catch a glimpse of Xiao Shun’s movements just now; his speed was truly astounding.
At the same time, these individuals finally witnessed Xiao Shun’s formidable prowess.
With such skill, it’s no wonder he could defeat Gu Baiyi!
In that moment, the mood of the Eastbrook Old School Society members plummeted.
Standing before Ye Nantian, Xiao Shun spoke coldly, “I intended to discuss this matter with you amicably, but you persist in annoying me. Do you truly believe I have a good temper?”
Feeling the immense pressure bearing down on him, Ye Nantian’s face turned even paler.
He finally realized something.
In the face of absolute strength, all schemes and tricks are fragile.
Ye Nantian understood that Xiao Shun was truly angered this time, and if he continued to obstruct them, he would surely provoke the other’s wrath.
Understanding the severity, he waved his hand towards his similarly pale-faced colleagues.
“You all, leave first!”
As if granted a reprieve, the group quickly retreated.
Seeing the empty meeting room, Ye Nantian let go of his pretense, his strength drained as he slumped in his chair, looking at Xiao Shun with pleading eyes.
“I can tell you where my son is, but there is one condition.”
“Do you think you have the right to discuss terms with me now?” Xiao Shun sneered.
“I can inform you of Master Nie’s movements in Cliffside, and even lead the Eastbrook warriors to join the New School Society unconditionally, all I ask is for you to spare my son’s life!”
Ye Nantian’s position today was proof enough of his capabilities.
How could he be unaware of the current situation?
However, to protect his unworthy son, he continued to persist.
After a moment of contemplation, Xiao Shun nodded.
“If my friend has not suffered any substantial harm, I can spare his life, but there will be no room for negotiation beyond that.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Nantian couldn’t help but pray, hoping his son wouldn’t do anything foolish.
Otherwise, even if the deities descended, he would not escape death!
“He’s in the northern outskirts of the city.”
Having done all he needed to do, he no longer persisted, revealing where Ye Jisheng often frequented.
He then dialed his son’s phone in front of Xiao Shun, attempting to make the rascal come and apologize on his own.
As soon as the call connected, a pleasant voice filled the line.
“Sorry, the number you’ve dialed is currently unavailable!”
Ye Nantian’s expression immediately turned uneasy.
Xiao Shun, on the other hand, couldn’t be bothered to say more as he swiftly left the meeting room, leaving the gaze of the many high-ranking Eastbrook members behind him.
A short while later, a pallid-faced Ye Nantian also emerged.
Seeing this, Xiaolie hastened to approach, “Mr. Branch Head…”
Ye Nantian weakly waved his hand, “We’ll talk when I get back.”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
With that, he hurried towards the direction of the parking lot.
Forty minutes later.
Outside the northern outskirts of the city.
Xiao Shun arrived at a picturesque villa estate.
He didn’t choose to enter through the main gate as high-end residential complexes like this were strictly secured; his unfamiliar face would never be allowed entry.
Instead, he circled around the walls and hopped over them.
Following the signs, he quickly arrived at the location mentioned by Ye Nantian.
Before him stood a three-story villa that exuded a grandeur.
Xiao Shun retracted his gaze and walked to the front door, pressing the doorbell.
Instantly, there were a few barks from the yard, full of vigor!
After a moment, a jarring electric sound emanated from the external speaker, mixed with a man’s muffled voice.
“Who is it?”
“Xiao Shun!”
For a brief moment, silence fell over the intercom.
*Click!*
Subsequently, the iron gate swung open slowly.
“Heh heh, come in!”
At this moment, the intercom carried a delighted voice from Ye Jisheng.
Upon hearing this, a smile tugged at the corners of Xiao Shun’s mouth.
Judging by Ye Jisheng’s reaction, Cao Wanqing should still be safe.
Evidently, this guy’s target was actually him, with Cao the celebrity just caught in the crossfire.
Passing through the villa courtyard, Xiao Shun arrived at the doorstep.
Inside, he immediately saw Cao Wanqing lying weakly on the couch.
Seeing that she was unharmed and her clothes were intact, Xiao Shun couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At that moment, Cao Wanqing also saw Xiao Shun approaching slowly, a hint of gratitude flickering in her eyes.
Before Xiao Shun arrived, Ye Jisheng had tried several times to make advances on her, but she managed to cleverly deflect each one.
If she continued to delay even for a moment longer, Cao Wanqing truly didn’t know what tortures she might endure.
If she were to lose her purity to a man she didn’t love, it would be worse than death!
Fortunately, Xiao Shun was here now.
While Cao Wanqing was grateful to have escaped unscathed, Ye Jisheng was also pleased that he could finally exact his vengeance that night.
He rose and walked slowly towards Xiao Shun, a sinister smile gracing his face.
“Hehe, I just sent someone to find you, didn’t expect the little bodyguard to come to me voluntarily!”
Ignoring Ye Jisheng standing before him, Xiao Shun’s gaze shifted to Cao Wanqing on the sofa.
“Has he harmed you?”
Cao Wanqing shook her head.
Being blatantly ignored by Xiao Shun filled Ye Jisheng with rage.
But thinking about what was about to happen soon, he quickly let go of his dissatisfaction, and his smile grew even more pronounced.
“Before I kill you, I have no interest in dallying with a woman like you!”
“Is that so?” Xiao Shun looked at Ye Jisheng with a playful smile.
“Little bodyguard, in Eastbrook, I’m the one who bullies others, and no one dares to bully me. You’re just a dog, yet you dare to humiliate me in public!”
At this, Ye Jisheng stared fiercely at Xiao Shun, his expression menacing.
“You tell me, how should I vent my anger on you?”
“Hehe.” Xiao Shun chuckled playfully, not answering but instead posing a question, “I wonder how Young Master Ye wants to vent his anger on me?”
Ye Jisheng said nothing more, his smile turning even colder.
He clapped his hands lightly.
The burly men who were originally standing at the door immediately entered and stood before Xiao Shun, looking eager for action.
