Chapter 5: Yanjing

Chu Yu let out a cold laugh in his heart, and then began to contemplate the various changes brought about by the breaking of his seal.

For instance, the high-speed train, in the past, had a speed of approximately over 300 kilometers per hour, and before the advent of the new era, it reached 500 kilometers per hour

This speed is already approaching the speed of sound

However, whether it is the handsome young man referred to as Brother Xie or the beautiful tea artist across from him, neither seems to be affected by the murderous aura emanating from the robust young man

Xie Tianyu stood alone in the courtyard, seemingly lost in thought. Even when Xiao Yue approached him, he appeared not to notice her presence

Chu Yu, half-reclining in the business class seat, appeared expressionless, yet his heart was far from calm

The robust young man chuckled and said: "How could I possibly do that? Although I, Fang Hu, am not a gentleman, I would never take away what others cherish. This tea, being able to drink it is already a stroke of luck. If one dares to take it, that would be a bit excessive"

In a siheyuan located in the inner ring of Yanjing, two young individuals are seated in front of a tea table enjoying tea

Chu Yu let out a faint sigh in his heart, pretending not to notice the person behind him secretly observing him

Therefore, these high-tech products still have a tremendous impact on the world

The tea artist, with her delicate hands, skillfully brews the tea leaves, exuding an air of tranquility as if untouched by the hustle and bustle of life. Each movement is a visual delight.

The young man speaking exudes a fierce aura, with a distinct air of menace surrounding him. It is evident that he has made a conscious effort to restrain himself, yet a trace of that intensity still emanates from him

Regret?" Xie Tianyu smiled and said: "No."

Damn it, how did a useless person manage to escape from the siege of two experts? Who exactly saved him?

The girls walking on the street are dressed very lightly, and it is once again the season that pleases the eye

At that moment, the phone of the young man with the surname Xie suddenly rang.

The Chu family in the northern region, although a family he cannot provoke, has the support of the Xie family. Moreover, no matter how powerful the Chu family is, their influence does not extend to Yanjing, let alone to Qilu.

Regarding other matters, Xie Tianyu is not aware, and his influence is equally unable to penetrate into the land of Qilu

A high-speed train is racing towards Yanjing from the Qilu direction

He did not expect that his somewhat willful action would lead to a series of both misfortunes and blessings.

Had he known this earlier, he would have come to Mount Tai crying and shouting sixteen years ago, why endure such repression for sixteen years

It should have nothing to do with this matter; it was just a coincidence. Fang Hu said, "They only ascended the mountain when it was almost dawn."

He quickly hung up the phone and looked at the young man with the surname Xie across from him

Throughout this journey, Chu Yu has been completely absorbed in comprehending his own power, with no attention to anything else.

Xie Tianyu sighed lightly: "You do not understand, the Chu family is known as the Northern Wolf Clan, and this is not an empty title; many matters do not require evidence"

"You will regret it," said Xiaoyue, her expression calm and unchanging as she turned to walk towards the room. "I am going to start my training now, so please do not disturb me. Also, next time, if someone has such a heavy killing intent, do not ask me to come out to make tea for him. It is a waste, and I do not like such people."

Xie Tianyu nodded slightly; he had just received news that his people had spotted Chu Yu on the high-speed train returning to Beijing. He immediately understood that the assassination attempt against Chu Yu had failed

Fang Hu thought for a moment and said, "My people reported that they saw the Lin siblings, not the Lin family from the North, but the Lin family from the Central Plains."

... ...

The young man with the surname Xie showed a apologetic smile to Xiaoyue, then stood up and walked aside. After that, he answered the phone. However, after just a few sentences, his expression changed.

The left sect and the triangular-eyed individuals on Mount Tai are all elders from his gang

A formidable young man named Fang Hu was born after the dawn of the New Era. Although he does not come from a distinguished background, he possesses exceptional talent. At under thirty years of age, he has already opened two hundred acupuncture points, making him a master at the peak of the sixth stage of the Acupoint Opening realm.

But Chu Yu will not let it go

On the other hand, his gang needs to develop and grow, which necessitates purchasing various cultivation resources from families like the Xie family

As of now, the high-speed rail, which has already spread across the country, has reached a terrifying speed of 1,000 kilometers per hour

The only flaw this time is that he killed two people

Due to his close personal relationship with Xie Tianyu, Fang Hu subsequently undertook the assassination mission targeting Chu Yu. Then, Zuo Zong and the man with the triangular eyes both volunteered for the task.

If everything had gone smoothly, these gains would not have been achieved

Xie Tianyu took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Let's stop here for now... consider this waste of life fortunate! I must investigate thoroughly later to find out who saved him. They have thwarted my plans, and I will not let this matter rest!"

"He didn't die? How is that possible?" The fierce young man took a deep breath and said, "This is not scientific!"

Although those two deserved to die, Chu Yu was not prepared for this.

Fang Hu said this and took his leave directly

The tea artist, Xiaoyue, sitting opposite the tea table, simply stood up and turned around without looking back as she entered the room

The young man with the surname Xie smiled gently: "It's just a little tea leaves, what's the big deal, Xiaoyue?"

Even a master of the five stages of acupoint striking, when running at full speed, can only achieve this pace, and it is also quite difficult to maintain for an extended period of time

The robust young man displayed an awkward smile; however, when he answered the phone, his expression instantly shifted to one of seriousness, much like that of the young man with the surname Xie.

Moreover, he is merely a useless person. Zuo Zong and the man with slanted eyes are both experienced; they have countless methods to accomplish this task without anyone noticing, leaving no trouble behind

Understood. The tea master on the opposite side responded lightly.

Xiao Yue approached Xie Tianyu and softly said: "Do you regret it?"

Fang Hu stood up and said, "Rest assured, even if you do not speak, I will investigate thoroughly. My two elders cannot have died in vain"

Xiaoyue, who was brewing tea, slightly frowned, seemingly annoyed by the interruption during her tea preparation

This caused the person responsible for monitoring Chu Yu, who was also in the business compartment, to feel a sense of disdain towards him

At the same time, Fang Hu was also a prominent gang leader in the Qilu region.

Entering a new era, this remains one of the most prosperous megacities in the world

Chu Yu also opened his eyes

It is also a significant gain

Xie Tianyu, knowing that I am not dead, you must be very disappointed, right? Are you very puzzled about who exactly saved me?

In July, the weather has begun to heat up. Although it is morning, the temperature has already risen with the sun's ascent

Although both individuals possess considerable realms and decent talents, as they are solitary cultivators, at this level of cultivation, each step forward requires astronomical resources. They lack the substantial financial backing necessary to support their continued cultivation, and the path ahead is nearly severed.

Daring to compete with him for a woman, even if it were the King of Heaven himself, Xie Tianyu would not hesitate to confront him. Let alone a worthless person.

As time goes on, the continuous rise in body temperature can impose a significant burden on the body

Subsequently, the young man with the surname Xie hung up the phone and walked back with a blank expression

The affairs of the world are unpredictable, and not all matters will afford you the time to prepare

He looked at Xie Tianyu and said, "I communicated directly with Zuo Zonghe and Qiao De, leaving no other evidence. Both of them have now disappeared, and if I am not mistaken, they should be dead. This matter will at most involve me; when the time comes, I will simply say I don't know. Rest assured, I will definitely not implicate you in this."

First, he encountered a life-threatening disaster, and immediately afterward, he surprisingly resolved a problem that had troubled him for sixteen years with such ease

Thus, they aspire to earn a substantial amount of money and then flee abroad to lead a carefree life from that point onward

Xie Tianyu's expression was very gloomy, completely devoid of the lightheartedness he had just displayed. He furrowed his brows and looked at Fang Hu, saying: "There is trouble!"

The young man, referred to as Brother Xie, smiled and said: "If Brother Fang likes it, I can send you half a jin later! There isn't much of this tea, otherwise, I would have given you more. To be honest, I only have a little over one jin on hand."

Soon, the high-speed train arrived at Yanjing South Station, gradually coming to a stop.

Before accepting this task, Fang Hu had also hesitated, but in the end, he nodded in agreement. On one hand, he had a good personal relationship with Xie Tianyu, who did not exhibit any airs of being a descendant of a hidden aristocratic family and treated him like a brother. When a brother is in need, one must certainly lend a helping hand

A young man picked up the teacup, gently sniffed it, and smiled, saying: "I have heard that ninety-nine percent of Jin Jun Mei on the market is fake, and true Jin Jun Mei is hard to come by. Not to mention this exquisite variety, which is even rarer; even someone as unrefined as I can appreciate its quality. Hahaha, no matter how wealthy others are, they may not necessarily have the chance to taste it. Only someone of Brother Xie's status can present such tea. Today, being able to drink it is a stroke of luck for me. Hahaha, those people would never expect that a simpleton like me would have the day to enjoy such exquisite tea leaves."

At this moment, within his body, it is as if there lies a massive volcano, or rather, a colossal active volcano

At that moment, the phone of the formidable young man also rang.

From a high vantage point, this vast city exudes a magnificent aura

Resources are not something that can simply be purchased with money; for instance, those medicinal materials that are several decades or even hundreds of years old are rarely accessible to anyone outside of those reclusive families.

First and foremost is the state of mind, a change that occurs from within and is rarely noticed by others, yet for Chu Yu himself, this change is nothing short of earth-shattering

Xie Tianyu looked at Fang Hu and said, "Regarding this matter, I would appreciate it if Brother Fang could investigate it thoroughly and inform me promptly of any news."

Xie Tianyu pursed his lips, picked up his phone, and began to contact people

However, upon careful reflection, over the past sixteen years, he has learned how to conduct himself and his affairs with humility, has moved past the recklessness of youth, and has developed an open-minded and optimistic disposition

From Qilu to Yanjing, it is merely a one-hour drive

Beijing, I have returned

The robust young man did not deliberately listen to the content of the call made by the young man with the surname Xie, but upon seeing his expression, he could not help but feel puzzled in his heart: "What happened?"

Then, he raised his head and looked at Xie Tianyu: "Is this matter to end here, or ... ... "

"No matter how fierce the wolf is, it can only roam in the deep mountains and old forests. This Yanjing... is not a place for them to run wild, and the land of Qilu is even less a venue for their recklessness," Fang Hu said淡淡.

As soon as he got into the car, he felt someone staring at him. Chu Yu did not want to act rashly, as it was not yet the time to reveal himself

The young man with the surname Xie, named Xie Tianyu, is one of the first descendants from the families to enter the world after the dawn of the new era

Fang Hu is different from Xie Tianyu; he is someone who has truly risen from the grassroots, with his hands stained by countless bloodshed. Although he was somewhat flustered when he received the call, he has now calmed down.

Can unleash terrifying power at any moment

Entering a new era, some high-tech products have not only continued to develop without pause, but have instead advanced with an even more rapid momentum, forging ahead with great vigor

Sitting behind the tea table, Xiaoyue furrowed her brow once again without raising her head

The sky in Beijing is very blue

Xie Tianyu frowned slightly, then smiled disdainfully, thinking to himself: just a little girl who knows nothing, pretending to be aloof. If it weren't for the ... behind you...

Zhongyuan Lin family? Lin Yue and Lin Rou?" Xie Tianyu frowned: "What are they going to Mount Tai for?"

That handsome face instantly turned serious, and the entire courtyard was suddenly filled with a chilling atmosphere

Opposite the tea table sits a stunningly beautiful tea artist, her long, flowing hair cascading gracefully over her shoulders. She is dressed in a qipao embroidered with blue and white patterns, which is not very long, revealing two slender, fair legs.

He instructed Fang Hu to stop here, as he did not want Fang Hu to become further entangled. The Xie family needs Fang Hu's influence in the Qilu region

Who would have thought that a task as simple as an assassination could actually fail
