Upon hearing this, a hint of hesitation flashed across Ye Chu's brows, his eyes fixed on Yang Xiao in front of him, as if trying to take in every subtle expression of the other.

Seeing this, Yang Xiao smiled faintly, his voice carrying a hint of mockery and provocation.

"Oh, what's wrong? Has that once audacious and fearless arrogant youth become hesitant even to step forward before me?"

A moment of silence lingered in the air until Ye Chu finally uttered a single word in a deep voice: "Okay."

After saying that, he took a step, walking steadily and firmly toward Yang Xiao.

Each step seemed to carry a certain determination, or perhaps a consideration of the unknown.

Finally, Ye Chu stood in front of Yang Xiao, and his deep eyes met Yang Xiao's gaze for a moment.

He slowly reached out and took the seemingly ordinary but mysterious box from Yang Xiao's palm.

Witnessing this scene, a satisfied smile bloomed on Yang Xiao's face, a smile of satisfaction that came from finally finding a talented person after seeing countless people.

His eyes clearly said that he had not misjudged Ye Chu; Ye Chu was indeed the one capable of shouldering heavy responsibilities.

"Excellent, excellent! My judgment has indeed been correct."

"As for the contents of this box, you don't need to investigate further. Remember, do not reveal a single thing to anyone."

"The only thing I can tell you is that if you give this to Mu Tongyan, her injuries will heal on their own."

Yang Xiao's eyes gleamed with satisfaction, and he smiled broadly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chu slowly raised his hand and gently opened the ancient wooden box.

However, after only a fleeting glance, he slammed the lid shut, his face instantly turning grim.

With his keen eyesight, he could naturally tell that the contents of the box were indeed a rare and effective medicine.

However, its refining method is too ruthless, sending chills down one's spine.

"No wonder no one in the Dragon Kingdom could heal Mu Tongyan's wound; it's because that crucial last ingredient was actually..."

Ye Chu paused subtly at this point, clearly unwilling to reveal the secret directly to the public.

"That does have some merit."

A playful look flashed across Yang Xiao's eyes, and a faint smile curved his lips.

"I thought you would continue to have doubts about me, but I never expected you to see through it so quickly."

"It seems you have other tricks up your sleeve, but I don't know them yet."

Yang Xiao was about to speak again when he was gently interrupted by the tall woman beside him.

"Sir, it's getting late, he's coming soon."

Her words were gentle, yet carried an undeniable reminder.

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiao nodded slightly, a knowing glint in his eyes.

"Kid, what a pity."

"However, I'm sure we'll meet again soon."

"I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of storm you'll stir up in that bustling metropolis!"

"Ha ha……"

After saying that, Yang Xiao turned around gracefully and strode towards the helicopter that had been waiting for a long time, leaving Ye Chu with a resolute and profound black silhouette.

Immediately, the propellers roared, and the helicopter, like a soaring eagle, suddenly took off into the sky, carrying an indomitable pride.

In the blink of an eye, it turned into a tiny dot and eventually disappeared into the boundless blue sky, leaving only a faint trail of exhaust fumes that slowly drifted away in the air.

At this moment, only Ye Chu and the Shao family remained atop the rooftop, and everything around them seemed to have stopped breathing.

Before everyone could recover from their shock...

A towering figure, as majestic as a mountain, suddenly appeared. It was the mysterious man who had appeared beside Shao Wen's body earlier and was respectfully addressed as "Sir" by the prosecutor.

Accompanying him was a majestic and awe-inspiring black spear, which hovered quietly behind him, exuding a terrifying pressure.

At this moment, the man's face was gloomy, as if dark clouds were pressing down on him.

His brows furrowed with barely concealed anger, yet he gritted his teeth and forcefully suppressed his rage, preventing it from escalating uncontrollably.

At this moment, the Shao family's higher-ups, who were still utterly despondent, suddenly seemed to see a lifeline.

"My lord, we beg you to have mercy and save the Shao family from this dire situation!"

"Your Honor, this villain Ye Chu is cruel and has harmed countless members of the Shao family. Now he is even more unscrupulous, committing arson and murder, intending to destroy the foundation of the Shao family!"

"We beg Your Excellency to show mercy and slay this scoundrel Ye Chu, to avenge the Shao family!"

The Shao family's senior members knelt down and begged, their words filled with grief, indignation, and despair.

Upon hearing this, the man's expression turned indifferent. He merely glanced at the Shao family members before his gaze, sharp as lightning, landed on Ye Chu.

Immediately, the man spoke.

"Things have come to this point. Although the Shao family provoked us first, you are no ordinary person either. You have personally killed many members of the Shao family, and even Shao Wenlong could not escape your sharp edge."

"Your entanglement with the Shao family has now come to an end, with both sides suffering casualties, and the grudges have been settled. You should leave quickly and not linger here any longer."

"I hope that in the future you will prioritize the nation's interests, take hunting monsters as your duty, and never again easily shed the blood of innocent people. From now on, you must think thrice before acting!"

The man's words revealed his deep apprehension about Ye Chu's talent. Such extraordinary ability, given time, would surely make him a powerful figure in the world.

He knew that he had no need to make an irreconcilable enemy of Ye Chu.

Furthermore, the world is a long and winding road; having one more friend is always better than having one more enemy.

Besides, the man was also wary of the Hongdao Sect behind Ye Chu, and he wasn't entirely sure how much Wu Hongdao had actually done to get involved in today's events.

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, the members of the Shao family were all dumbfounded and stunned.

They were already suspicious of Yang Xiao's lack of action earlier, and now this powerful figure was also avoiding Ye Chu, unwilling to provoke him easily.

What... what should we do?!

Just when everyone was at a loss, Ye Chu's voice rang out, as cold as ice:

"Today I will annihilate the Shao family. What talk of settling scores now?"

These words, like a sharp blade in the cold wind, instantly shattered the surrounding tranquility and shocked everyone present.

At first, the man seemed to hear a hallucination. After a slight pause, his emotions surged like magma from the ground, and a dangerous glint flashed in his eyes, as if he wanted to devour everything in front of him.

"Kid, you've got some nerve!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chu's lips curled into a cold smile. The killing intent contained in that smile was like the fiercest storm in winter, suddenly sweeping around and making people's hearts tremble.

Ye Chu said it from the beginning

He was all alone, a solitary figure in the world. If anyone wanted to take his life, it would be tantamount to declaring war on the entire Ye clan. To kill him alone would be to wipe out the entire Ye family.

Thinking about it this way, why would he hesitate to use their own methods against them?

If he were to take action and wipe out the entire Shao family, what reason would it be against him?
