Two days later.

Su Yifan drove his younger sister to school.

At the school gate, a graceful figure stood there, glancing around. As the car came to a halt, Su Yifan and his sister, Su Meng, got out. Seeing the two, Han Qingqing immediately hurried over. “Meng’er, you’re finally here. I’ve missed you so much.”

“I’ve missed you too,” Su Meng replied, and the two embraced.

Su Yifan stood nearby, like a silent bystander. Seeing that his sister had arrived safely, he said, “Meng’er, I’ll leave you here then.”

“Oh, this is a protective jade pendant from your brother. Keep it safe.”

“Alright, brother, be careful driving home,” Su Meng said, taking the jade pendant.

Han Qingqing’s eyes widened as she watched. She wanted that protective jade pendant too! But it was a gift from Yifan to his best friend; all she could do was wish.

Noticing Han Qingqing’s longing gaze, Su Yifan extended his hand, revealing another jade pendant in his palm. “This is for you.”

“For me? Really?” Han Qingqing was stunned. Was she actually included?

Seeing her hesitate to accept the pendant, Su Meng spoke up, “Brother, Qingqing doesn’t like this kind of thing. You should take it back.”

At that, Han Qingqing stared at her friend in disbelief. Was she really going to spoil the fun?

Immediately, Han Qingqing reached out and took the jade pendant from Su Yifan’s hand. “Who says I don’t like it? If it’s from Yifan, of course I like it.”

Su Yifan smiled and said, “I won’t walk you in. If you ever need anything, remember to call me. I can handle anything for you.”

Before Su Meng could respond, Han Qingqing spoke first, “Um, Yifan, can I call you if I need something too?”

Su Yifan chuckled. “Of course.”

“Then goodbye, Yifan,” Han Qingqing waved, then pulled Su Meng along into the school.

“Wait, I still…” Su Meng was at a loss.

She hadn’t even spoken yet, and was already dragged away.

“If you have anything to say, let’s talk later,” Han Qingqing said, covering her friend’s mouth as they walked.

Watching his sister and her friend disappear into the distance, Su Yifan turned and got back in the car.

With a roar, the car started. Su Yifan drove to a secluded spot, stepped out, and with a casual wave, the car vanished into his storage ring.

Then, with a loud bang, Su Yifan shot into the sky, transforming into a streak of light that disappeared into the horizon.

...

Meanwhile, in the great hall of the Ye family in Dragon City.

“Patriarch, I’ve returned,” a middle-aged man said with a respectful bow.

“Did you find anything?” Ye Zhantian asked in a deep voice.

“Patriarch, I found a little. Su Yifan is from the Su family of Cloud City, disappeared five years ago, and only recently returned. During those five years, nothing about him can be found, as if he vanished and then reappeared out of thin air. He also has a grandfather who passed away recently. His parents run a business in Cloud City, and he has a younger sister in university.”

The middle-aged man reported everything he had discovered.

“Vanished and reappeared? Was he really taken in by some hidden sect?” Ye Zhantian muttered. “If that’s true, then revenge for the Ye family might be hopeless.”

“No matter if he has a hidden sect backing him, he must die!” the third elder said coldly.

Just then, two powerful figures in black robes appeared in the hall, and the atmosphere grew tense.

“Second and third elders, why are you here?” Ye Zhantian asked in surprise.

At his words, the middle-aged man standing in the center of the hall swallowed nervously. He had worked in the Ye family for years, and only heard rumors about the four powerful elders, never seen them in person. Now, seeing them, he was awed by their strength.

He had heard two days ago that the fourth elder had encountered trouble, but didn’t know the details. Now, with two elders appearing because of a young man named Su Yifan, could it be that the fourth elder’s misfortune was caused by him?

“No need for further words; both the fourth elder and our Ye family kin were killed by this man. He must pay for it with blood!” the third elder declared coldly.

“But that young man might have…” Ye Zhantian worried about Su Yifan’s connection to a hidden sect.

Before he could finish, the second elder spoke:

“There’s no need to worry. As long as we’re careful, even if he is a disciple of a hidden sect, without evidence they won’t dare act against us.”

Ye Zhantian finally relaxed.

The middle-aged man spoke up, “Patriarch, I have one more matter to report.”

“What is it?”

“A few days ago, members of Dragon Scale and the Dragon Group visited the Su family.”

“What?!” Upon hearing that Dragon Scale had gone to the Su family, Ye Zhantian felt a sense of foreboding.

Dragon Scale was the cornerstone of the Summer Nation. If Su Yifan joined them, the Ye family’s revenge would be forever beyond reach.

Thinking of this, he quickly asked, “Were they trying to recruit that brat into Dragon Scale?”

The middle-aged man replied, “Yes, but it seems Su Yifan did not agree.”

“Are you sure?” Ye Zhantian pressed; this was crucial.

Recalling the scene, the middle-aged man said, “I was some distance away and couldn’t hear their conversation, but they didn’t seem pleased. The Dragon Scale and Dragon Group people didn’t even enter the Su family’s house, and left in a huff. So I suspect negotiations fell through.”

After hearing this, Ye Zhantian laughed heartily. “Good, very good, the heavens are watching! As long as he hasn’t joined Dragon Scale, our revenge is within reach!”

Just then, Ye Zhantian’s phone rang.

He answered, and after hearing the report, he smiled.

“Elders, heaven favors us. Truly, heaven favors the Ye family...”

...

On the other side.

After flying for over ten minutes, Su Yifan finally arrived at the foot of Mount Taihang.

He saw a group ahead, heading up the mountain.

“These must be here for the Immortal Mansion cave. In that case, I’ll go with them and inquire about the Xiao family.”

With that, Su Yifan landed and followed the group.

As he approached within a hundred meters, he was quickly spotted.

“Who’s there? Come out!” a bald, muscular man demanded.

“Greetings, gentlemen. No need to be angry, I’ll come out.” Su Yifan stepped out of the bushes, wearing a goofy smile, hands raised, looking completely harmless.
