Xiao Chen thought about it, took out his cell phone and called Tian Kun.
What made him frown was that he couldn't get through to Tian Kun's cell phone. It wasn't that no one answered, but that the call couldn't be connected.
This made him feel a little depressed. Did something really happen?
He called twice more, but still couldn't get through.
"Zi Yi should not have left the Ye family. When she called before, she said that she was at the Ye family and couldn't get away because of something, so she didn't come to the Xiao family..."
Xiao Chen lit up a cigarette, took a few deep puffs, and became more and more worried.
After finishing a cigarette, he thought of Ye Jing and called Ye Jing again.
Even if something happened to Ye Ziyi, Ye Jing, as one of the elders of the Ye family, should be fine.
Unless... the Ye family was destroyed!
If that was the case, there was no way he wouldn't have gotten the news!
Xiao Chen felt that there must be some problem within the Ye family, such as some people in the Ye family wanted to seize power!
There were signs of this a long time ago. He even advised Ye Ziyi to let go of the Ye family and go to Longhai to take charge of the Xiao family!
Ye Ziyi is an enchanting woman. It was she who single-handedly managed the Ye family since its entry into the world, and helped it achieve its current status and influence!
Her ability is beyond doubt!
But Ye Ziyi refused. She said that she wanted to go back to the Ye family again. One day, maybe she would let it go and go to Longhai to help him manage the Xiao family.
Xiao Chen did not make things difficult for Ye Ziyi and agreed, but he still made arrangements, such as Ye Jing and Tian Kun.
Ye Jing’s call went through, but no one answered.
"Are you asleep? If it's just within the Ye family, she might suffer some injustice, but her personal safety shouldn't be a big problem... After all, she is the eldest daughter of the Ye family, and her grandfather will not agree if anyone hurts her."
Xiao Chen felt a little relieved when he thought of this.
However, this matter still needs to be investigated thoroughly. If it doesn't work, he will have to go to the Ye family once the matter of the Duanmu family is settled!
Xiao Chen called again, but Ye Jing still didn't answer. He didn't call again, but sent a message to Ye Jing and then went to find Hua Youque.
When it comes to the intelligence network of the ancient martial arts world, the Dragon Emperor's intelligence network is definitely at the forefront!
Elder Long had said before that the sects and families in the ancient martial arts world, especially the big forces, all had people arranged by the Dragon Emperor, and some of them had very high status!
The Xiao family already has it, but Xiao Chen didn't ask because that would have broken the rules.
"Check the Ye family?"
Hua Youque was a little surprised when he heard what Xiao Chen said. What was going on? The Duanmu family hadn't finished their business yet, so why were they clashing with the Ye family again?
"Yes, I want to know what happened to the Ye family."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"That's all? Nothing else?"
Hua Youque was a little bit unconvinced.
"Well, that's all, nothing else."
Xiao Chen nodded. Even if he had to do something else, he would do it himself.
"What are they mainly in? Among the twelve noble families, the Ye family may not have a high status in ancient martial arts, but their influence in the secular world is amazing, especially overseas... Speaking of which, Ye Ziyi of the Ye family is really amazing."
Hua Youque said this, thought of something, and looked at Xiao Chen.
"The eldest lady of the Ye family seems to be related to you, right? Isn't it because of her that we are investigating this time?"
"Yes, it's because of her."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"I can't contact her... There must be a problem within the Ye family."
"Okay, wait for me to ask, and I'll give you news as soon as possible."
Hua Youque agreed.
"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Hua."
Xiao Chen patted Hua Youque's shoulder.
"It's too formal to say that. We are brothers after all."
Flowers are missing, smile.
"Um."
Xiao Chen also smiled, chatted with Hua Youque for a few words, and then left.
As for Ye Ziyi... he was very worried just now, but now that he figured it out, he became much calmer.
However, even though he was calm, he still wanted to take the time to visit the Ye family.
His woman must not only not be harmed, but she cannot even be wronged.
"We need to resolve the Duanmu family's issues as soon as possible..."
Xiao Chen muttered to himself and began to think of a way to break the impasse.
Now, there is not only him and the Duanmu family, but also the Xuantian Sect!
On the other hand, the Duanmu family is destined to have a sleepless night!
Especially the senior members of the Duanmu family, they were all worried and looked solemn.
What's happening tonight is...big!
The Duanmu family prepared for this base and these medicines for a year or two!
As a result... when the harvest time came, Xiao Chen looted everything!
This made the Duanmu family very angry!
Especially...the Duanmu family not only paid with manpower, material resources and financial resources, but also became the public enemy of the ancient martial arts world and stood on the opposite side!
In other words, they didn't gain any benefit from this matter, but instead got themselves into trouble!
Not only was the base looted, but more than a dozen masters of Hua Jin and dozens of scientific researchers from the Holy See of Light were all killed!
Whether it is a dozen masters of Hua Jin or dozens of scientific researchers, their value is enormous.
Even the Holy See of Light cannot afford such a loss!
There are only a few Hua Jin masters in the Asian region of the Holy See of Light, and they account for at least a quarter, or even a third!
As a result, they were all caught in one fell swoop!
Furthermore, Obisco has also disappeared, no one has seen him alive or dead!
All along, it was Obisco who was in contact with Archbishop Meadow, and now that he is gone, what should he do next?
In order to kill Xiao Chen, Archbishop Meadow sent another group of experts, but now Obisco is missing, what should these experts do?
Even if I come to China, I can't connect with them!
So... the situation now is, it's a mess!
If Archbishop Meadow knew that Obisco was missing and everyone else was dead, he would probably be furious and blame everything on the Duanmu family.
There was silence in the small conference room, and the atmosphere was solemn and strange.
"Tell me what to do."
After a long time, Duanmu Yun spoke, his voice a little hoarse.
“…”
No one spoke, including Duanmu Yu, who couldn't think of any good solution.
The current development of things is becoming increasingly unfavorable to the Duanmu family.
Basically... there is no way out!
Thinking that the Duanmu family might be destroyed, everyone present felt a little sad.
Is it over?
Duanmu Yu also felt bitter, he did not expect that the crisis would be so big once it came!
Even if the incident in Longhai broke out last time and the imperial court wanted to take action against the Duanmu family, the crisis would not be so serious!
At that time, the Duanmu family could still survive by cutting off their arms, but what about now?
It doesn't work no matter where you cut it off!
"Since there is no other solution, then I will tell you a solution."
It was Duanmu Yun who spoke again.
"One is, we should take advantage of the fact that the forces from all sides have not gathered yet and fight our way out overnight... Xiao Chen and his men alone should not be able to stop us! Even if they do, they can't stop all of us!"
After hearing Duanmu Yun’s words, everyone looked at him. Is he going to give up this place?
"As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood... Leave for now, and when we have rested and grown stronger, we will come back for revenge!"
Duanmu Yun said slowly.
"It's just that...all the people in the Holy See of Light are dead. If we go into exile overseas, it won't be easy! This matter depends on Archbishop Meadow. We can show our sincerity and work for him! Or we can find a place to keep a low profile, and he may not be able to find us! After all, our Duanmu family is not weak. If he pushes us too far, he will have to pay a price!"
"As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood..."
Duanmu Yu felt even more bitter. If he really gave up this blessed place, then he, the 'guardian' of the Duanmu family, would be a sinner!
"Ancestor, there's nothing we can do now, right?"
Duanmu Yun looked at him and said.
"You have another solution, what is it?"
Duanmu Yu asked.
"Another way is to... send a group of young people out, let them hide their identities, and we stay behind to fight to the death! We have to leave some seeds, we can't let the Duanmu family be completely extinct, right?"
Duanmu Yun's eyes flashed with coldness.
"Even if I die in battle, I will let them know that my Duanmu family cannot be bullied. I will make them pay the price!"
After hearing Duanmu Yun's words, the atmosphere fell silent again.
To put it bluntly, there are only two choices: either go together secretly or let the young people go!
If we go together, we will have to give up the Duanmu family and go into exile overseas!
If we let the young people go, life probably won't be much better.
Besides, we need someone to accompany them. It’s impossible to let the young people go alone.
"Ancestor, what do you think?"
Duanmu Yun looked at Duanmu Yu and asked.
"Be prepared for both situations."
Duanmu Yu thought about it and spoke slowly.
"What we can think of, Xiao Chen can definitely think of. There must be his people around to prevent us from... escaping."
When saying the word 'escape', Duanmu Yu felt a little bitter. He was a congenital master and one of the twelve noble families of the Duanmu family, how could he have fallen to this point!
"good."
Duanmu Yun also knew that this was just a solution he proposed, and it was still uncertain whether Xiao Chen would let them go!
Judging from the fact that masters of the Holy See of Light were killed in such a short period of time, the number of masters on Xiao Chen's side might be more than they imagined!
So, it’s not that easy to escape.
"If you can't leave, then fight to the death... Then, create opportunities for the younger generation, or the seeds you mentioned, to leave!"
Duanmu Yu said slowly.
"good."
Duanmu Yun nodded.
"But if the seeds leave, they have to find someone to protect them... Let's choose."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, who?
Whoever leaves may represent a way to survive.
Those who stay behind will probably die!
"Ancestor, how about you ..."
Duanmu Yun looked at Duanmu Yu and wanted to say something.
"I won't leave."
Duanmu Yu shook his head.
"It's fine if we go together, but if someone wants to stay, I, as the protector of the Duanmu family, shouldn't leave... At this point, I'm already a sinner, how can I run away!"
"Ancestor, it's all my fault..."
Duanmu Hai looked at Duanmu Yu with his head lowered. It was he who took the lead in the matter with the Holy See of Light.
"It's no use saying this, and we all agreed to it at the beginning."
Duanmu Yu waved his hand.
"In the end, it was our ambition that made us make the wrong decision..."
