He was about the same age as Ye Xingchen, but a few years older, and had never met Ye Jinyu.
However, he had seen Ye Jinyu in the photos in his father's room, and only now did he realize the striking resemblance between Ye Xingchen and Ye Jinyu.
"Yes, your father... gave up his future to guard the western border, just so that one day he could find out the truth about my father's death and avenge him."
Ye Xingchen said in a deep voice, "His greatest wish before his death was to retrieve my father's remains. After his death, you took his place in guarding the Western Border. This kindness is something my Ye family can never forget, nor dare to forget."
“I told you, he and Marshal Ye are brothers, even closer than brothers.” Liu Xuesong looked directly at Ye Xingchen: “Marshal Ye saved his life, but he was powerless to do anything about the changes in the Western Region.”
"He felt sorry for Marshal Ye, so he will stay there for the rest of his life. Every day, he will stand at the highest point of the outpost and look towards Jinluo City."
"Ten years passed in the blink of an eye, and he never lived to see that day again. Now that you're back, then..."
“Go to Jinluo City, kill those people, retrieve my father’s remains, and together with you, comfort Uncle Liu’s spirit in heaven,” Ye Xingchen continued.
“Okay, okay…” Zhang Xuesong’s eyes were filled with tears. He suddenly turned around and knelt down straight facing west.
"Dad, did you hear that? Marshal Ye's son is back. I will go with him to fulfill the wish you left unfulfilled back then."
Zhang Xuesong respectfully kowtowed to the west.
His heart was undoubtedly filled with excitement; which soldier wasn't a passionate and patriotic man?
Although he didn't know what the relationship between his father and father was like, he was willing to stay in the western border without hesitation for his father's last wish, just to fulfill his father's long-cherished wish.
"Tonight, it was a fruitless night." As he walked out of the hospital, Zhang Shihao glanced back at the hospital. "I also broke the rules by snatching someone from the underworld official... If my master finds out, he'll probably break my legs."
"I beat the underworld official, and I stole his soul. What are you afraid of?" Ye Xingchen turned his head and glanced at him.
“I was an accomplice too,” Zhang Shih-hao said with a wry smile. “I was watching you commit the crime, and I even helped you.”
"So what? The underworld officials broke the rules first, so don't blame us for being impolite." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I'll take responsibility for anything that damages one's karma."
“I can’t compare to you. Your medicine has saved countless people and accumulated countless good deeds. You can do whatever you want, but I can’t.” Zhang Shih-hao said with envy and jealousy, “Moreover, you are blessed with good fortune and surrounded by beautiful women. I can’t be envious of that.”
"If you're envious, you can do it too." Ye Xingchen nodded. "You're quite handsome, and you're skilled in magic. You can easily go out and charm any pretty girls who want to be with you."
"Save my breath, my master will beat me to death." Zhang Shihao shuddered as he recalled the many torture methods of the Xuan Yi Sect.
"Haha, good, I respect you as a gentleman." Ye Xingchen laughed heartily.
“I wouldn’t call myself a gentleman. Although I haven’t been in Yanjing for long, I’m already a regular at the Xingyun Club,” Zhang Shihao said proudly.
"Nebula Club? That's the most luxurious club in Yanjing?" Ye Xingchen couldn't help but glance at him: "You're really something, annual memberships there start at a million."
“It was obtained with money, it was a mutual agreement, and it’s not bound by any rules or regulations,” Zhang Shih-hao laughed.
Suddenly, his laughter stopped, his brows furrowed, and he and Ye Xingchen looked towards the back of the street at the same time, where they saw that familiar aura of menace reappear.
In a quiet bar, Chen Roujin ordered a cocktail.
She came away empty-handed after going out today. It had been a long time since she'd been to a bar, so she found a nearby one to have some peace and quiet.
However, not long after he sat down, before he could even calm down, a few clueless thugs came knocking on his door.
"Hey beautiful, all alone?" A young man with tattoos on his arm whistled at Chen Roujin, "Want to share a table? I'll buy you a drink."
“Okay.” Chen Roujin smiled slightly at the tattooed man, her handsome features full of smiles: “I couldn’t be happier.”
"Haha, really?" The tattooed man immediately became interested and casually struck up a conversation. It was common for someone like him to be rejected in bars.
However, he did not expect that this time the other party not only did not refuse, but was even somewhat proactive, which made him feel that his romantic encounter had arrived.
He instantly got carried away, snapped his fingers, ordered several bottles of good wine, and poured a glass for Chen Roujin.
Chen Roujin was a seasoned professional who frequented bars and nightclubs, so she wasn't intimidated at all. She took the tattooed man's drink, clinked glasses with him, and downed it in one gulp.
"Beautiful lady, what's your name?" After a glass of wine, the tattooed man got tipsy and began his life of hunting for women.
The girl in front of him was now seen as his prey.
"No name, call me whatever you want," Chen Roujin said nonchalantly.
"How could such a beautiful woman not have a name? I guess you just don't want to tell me." The tattooed man chuckled, "Give me the time to tell me your name."
"Why do we have to say what it's called?" Chen Roujin put down her cup, her hand already on the tattooed man's shoulder. "In a place like this, aren't we just having one-night stands?"
"After we've had our fun, and we don't have to be responsible for each other, why bother leaving our names?"
"Haha, you're on the right track, really on the right track." The tattooed man was slightly taken aback, then burst into laughter: "I like it, then come with me, if you serve me well today, I will definitely not treat you badly."
"You have brothers, right? Why don't you invite them too?" Chen Roujin smiled innocently. "I like more people."
“But I don’t like sharing my woman with others.” The tattooed man paused, taken aback.
"You have to think about it, a gem like me is a rare find." Chen Roujin's hand slid across the tattooed man's chest, her voice alluring: "Such a good thing, shouldn't we share it with our brothers?"
"Haha, good, you're right, good stuff should be shared with your best buddies." The tattooed man was practically ecstatic.
"Wait here, I'll call a few brothers, they'll be here soon." The tattooed man said impatiently, picking up his phone and dialing a number: "Big Dog, come quick, I've run into a real jerk today, at Night Encounter Bar, hurry up, call the brothers too."
After making several phone calls, a group of thugs who frequented nightclubs soon arrived, about five or six of them.
"The brothers are all here, let's go, beautiful, let's go somewhere else." The tattooed man chuckled.
"You're something else, Rat. You've run into a real gem today."
"Yeah, you've always been a slob, it's rare to see you actually sharing with your brothers today."
