Chapter 18: Chapter 18 If She Loses a Single Hair, I''ll Annihilate Your Entire Clan

    The two young members of the Martial Alliance wailed, almost crawling out.

    As they reached the doorway, they hysterically roared, "Ye Feng, you dare to lay hands on us, we are from the Martial Alliance, you''re dead meat, you must die, and the Hong Family, daring to oppose our Martial Alliance, you''re all doomed. Just you wait!"

    Seventeen''s expression suddenly darkened, ready to strike again and finish these two dogs'' lives.

    Ye Feng waved his hand and said, "They are but two crawling insects, why dirty this place of the Hong Family?"

    Seventeen halted in his tracks upon hearing this, then respectfully returned to his place behind Ye Feng.

    Ye Feng looked up at Hong Zhenguo and said, "Explain in detail, what''s the situation with Jiangdu''s Martial Alliance?"

    The original purpose of Ye Feng establishing the Martial Alliance was to encourage the nation''s people to learn martial arts for a strong and healthy body, and of course, to select experts from the Martial Alliance for the Four Realms Legion.

    After all, martial persons with a foundation in combat skills had significant advantages after joining the military, whether in individual capabilities or team combat.

    After all, in the last century, the nation was weak and impoverished; foreigners even scorned it as the "Sick Man of Asia." In order to completely change this situation, Ye Feng promoted the Martial Alliance nationwide, even allowing it to supplement fresh blood into the military.

    Now, it seemed, the situation was not as he had imagined.

    Hong Zhenguo was unaware that the Martial Alliance was founded by the sovereign before him. He seemed somewhat apprehensive about the words of the two members of the Martial Alliance he had just overheard.No?v(el)B\\jnn

    He shook his head and sighed, "Initially, the Martial Alliance, started off very well, even frequently celebrated for performing chivalrous deeds. However, these past few years, the situation has only been getting worse."

    Ye Feng did not speak. He suddenly thought to himself that the saying "chivalry is often a justification for committing forbidden acts" seemed to hold some truth.

    Hong Zhenguo continued, "I''m not too clear about the situation in other provinces, but as for Southern River Region Jiangnan Province, especially Jiangdu, the Martial Alliance has enormous influence, involving all kinds of forces, with even many Hidden Families getting involved."

    "Hidden Families?" Ye Feng raised an eyebrow.

    "In fact, Jiangdu''s Martial Alliance is now controlled by three major Hidden Families. Despite the Hong Family being recognized as a business giant, compared to these Hidden Families, we are nothing but a minor player. It is precisely because of this that members of the Martial Alliance dare to be so brazen and unrestrained!"

    Hong Zhenguo sighed repeatedly. The Martial Alliance''s involvement was too extensive, extending throughout the country. Not to mention the Northern Border, by now, members of the Martial Alliance were present in almost all of the Four Great Realms.

    Ye Feng nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "Currently, who is in charge of Jiangdu''s Martial Alliance?"

    Hong Zhenguo took a breath before continuing, "I had already notified Qingyan to come back at noon, but she hasn''t shown up yet. I just tried to contact her assistant, who said she left the company at noon."

    Ye Feng asked, "Can you still get in touch with her now?"

    Hong Zhenguo replied, "It''s precisely because I can''t contact her that I''m saying something''s happened. Qingyan doesn''t have many friends and rarely goes out. Even if she goes somewhere, she would tell me in advance. It''s not like her to be unreachable for half a day."

    Ye Feng''s eyes slowly narrowed to slits, and he suddenly ordered, "Go contact the Chu Family right away."

    "Contact the Chu Family?" Hong Zhenguo was taken aback and questioned, "Mr. Ye, do you think that the Chu Family is behind this?"

    Ye Feng did not answer, for he rarely responded to others'' questions. He just gave an order, "Tell the Chu Family if they have touched her, if Hong Qingyan is missing even a single hair, I''ll destroy the Chu Family entirely!"

    As he spoke, Ye Feng''s body erupted with a bone-chilling intent to kill, his eyes fiercely sharp.

    Hong Zhenguo couldn''t help but jump, but after regaining his composure, he said, "I will call them right now and convey your message word for word."

    However, just as he was about to take out his phone, coincidentally his phone began to ring, and the caller ID showed it was the Head of the Chu Family, Chu Min.

    Hong Zhenguo''s brow furrowed, instantly realizing what was happening.

    As the call connected, Chu Min on the other end chuckled first, "Old Man Hong, since we parted last night, have you been well?"

    Hong Zhenguo immediately snapped, "Did you lay your hands on Hong Qingyan?"

    "Wow, you found out so quickly. I actually wanted to give you a surprise," Chu Min said with sarcastic laughter.

    "Chu Min, do you know what you''re playing with?"

    Hong Zhenguo bellowed, "It was just a small grudge before, but you''ve completely torn apart any pretense and dared to harm Qingyan; do you realize what you''re doing!"

    "A small grudge? Old fool, spare me your cool talk. It''s not your grandson who''s dead, so of course, you''d call it a small grudge!" Chu Min sneered repeatedly, "Since last night, when you insisted on shielding your useless son-in-law, our two families have been at odds with each other!"

    "Enough with the nonsense. Where is Qingyan now?" Hong Zhenguo demanded.

    "Old man, you''re not qualified to talk to me. Have that waste of a son-in-law of yours talk to me!"

    "Give me the phone!" Ye Feng suddenly reached out, his voice cold as steel.
