Seeing Ye Qiu's serious expression, Tang Tiantian's face also became a little solemn: "Young Master, please tell me what it is, and I will do my best to help you investigate."

“Okay.” Ye Qiu said directly, “Just now, Beitang Su told me that my relatives in Qianzhou are very likely not my blood relatives. Go and investigate for me in secret how true this matter is, and find out as much information as possible.”

"Huh? This..."

Tang Tiantian was stunned.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I'm just shocked, young master. I'll go and investigate right away."

Tang Tiantian said seriously.

"Okay." Ye Qiu nodded, then added, "Keep it a secret."

"Young master, I can promise not to tell anyone else, but I can't not tell my second sister."

"Because if you don't tell me, I won't be able to find out. Only with the Second Miss's help can I possibly find anything useful."

Tang Tiantian whispered.

Ye Qiu frowned, and after thinking about it carefully, he realized that this was indeed the case.

Tang Tiantian was sent by her second senior sister to her side. Without her second senior sister's support, she would not be able to do anything and would not be able to find out anything.

Thinking of this, Ye Qiu decisively said, "You can tell Second Senior Sister."

"Young master, that should make things easier."

Ye Qiu patted Tang Tiantian's smooth forehead and smiled, "Go ahead and get busy, I'll be waiting for your good news."

"Young master, you...you can't just pat a girl's forehead like that, because it will make her misunderstand."

After saying that, Tang Tiantian ran away with a blush on her face.

Ye Qiu chuckled in surprise, shook his head, and didn't take the matter to heart.

...

Meanwhile, the governor soon learned what had happened at the meeting.

While the governor was still in Zhongbei, he learned that the Qianzhou Martial Arts Association had been almost completely wiped out on the spot. He was shocked and immediately rushed to the Zhongbei Prince's Mansion to tell the Zhongbei Prince everything.

Zhongbei Wang Yan slammed his hand on the table and stood up in utter shock: "That Ye Qiu actually overthrew the Qianzhou Martial Arts Association all by himself?"

"Yes," the governor said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, Ye Qiu must not be underestimated any longer. If we do, I'm afraid..."

"Nonsense!" King Zhongbei interrupted the governor, shouting, "If I were to underestimate him, why would I have sent the president of the Qianzhou Martial Arts Association to personally intervene?"

But I truly didn't expect that Ye Qiu's martial arts cultivation had become so strong that he could single-handedly contend with a powerful martial arts sect. If this boy isn't eliminated, he will become a deadly threat sooner or later.

The governor remained silent upon hearing this.

Yan Ji glanced at the governor and said in a deep voice, "This matter still needs to be handled by you. Continue to find a way to eliminate Ye Qiu. Do not give up, he is a potential source of trouble."

"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to share your burdens, but right now, I really have no other choice. I can't really send a large army to besiege and kill him. The last governor of Qianzhou who did that is already dead, and even if he succeeded, the consequences would be terrible."

The governor spoke earnestly.

"So we're just going to let it go?" Yan Ji's voice suddenly became even lower: "You're the governor of Qianzhou. That kid will find out sooner or later that it was you who gave the order to the prefect, and then the prefect instigated those three families to take action against the Ye family. When that happens, you won't survive either."

Also, don't forget that we all originally thought Ye Qiu was just a nobody with no background, but things are different now.

His martial arts skills must have come from the true teachings of some peerless master, whose identity must be extraordinary in the Great Xia Dynasty. This is one reason.

Secondly, based on the current clues, Ye Qiu's true blood relatives have an astonishing background. We must take advantage of the fact that everything can still be hidden and eliminate Ye Qiu as soon as possible. Otherwise, if things escalate, not only you, but even I, will likely be doomed. Therefore, Ye Qiu must die.

Upon hearing this, the governor's expression changed slightly.

After a minute of careful consideration, the governor whispered, "Your Majesty, there is only one way to go: find assassins, assassins from the Cold Blood Hall."

"The Cold-Blooded Hall?" Yan Ji's eyes lit up: "The assassins of the Cold-Blooded Hall have a history of successfully assassinating Grandmaster-level experts at the Great Martial Master level, and not just once. They are indeed extraordinary."

"Wen Chenggong, I was right to choose you to deal with Ye Qiu. If you succeed, I will transfer you to Zhongbei."

Wen Chenggong was overjoyed. Although he ruled Qianzhou like a local emperor, he was as insignificant as an ant compared to the big shots in Zhongbei.

Because some of the people who followed the King of Zhongbei held positions above him as the Governor of Qianzhou, and simultaneously controlled several prefectures and counties, making him an unmatchable regional governor.

If he can get into Zhongbei University and succeed in his studies, he will have the opportunity to go even further.

Wen Chenggong did not want to miss such a golden opportunity.

He suddenly looked up, stared at Yan Ji, and said excitedly, "Your Majesty, no matter the cost, I will definitely kill Ye Qiu."

"Haha, good, I've got it. This matter can only succeed, it cannot fail. Go."

"yes."

...

As night fell, heavy snow fell, and the outside temperature was minus ten degrees Celsius, making it bitterly cold.

Ye Qiu stood by the window, her mind in turmoil.

Several times today, Ye Qiu wanted to go to his old neighbor, Uncle Yan Jun, to ask him about the secret of his origins.

But Ye Qiu dared not go. For the first time in five years, he felt apprehensive, afraid that he might actually ask something.

Just as Ye Qiu was feeling annoyed, his phone suddenly rang with a text message notification.

Ye Qiu glanced at it casually, then his expression suddenly turned cold.
