"Sister Hongying! It seems you can't let go either!"
Upon returning to the villa, Nangong Qianyu’s gaze fell upon the qipao-clad woman beside Ye Ming.
That’s right, Ji Hongying had followed them.
"Mm!"
Ji Hongying looked at the charming women in the hall, her hands unconsciously clenching a little tighter.
Although they had all seen each other on video, she was still somewhat nervous.
In terms of status, she might have been the lowest.
"Hongying! Welcome home!"
At this moment, Fang Junxue stepped forward slightly, took Ji Hongying’s hand, and smiled gently.
Among the sisters, Fang Junxue was the first to interact with her. They had also met a few times in private.
Of course, Ye Ming would naturally not know about these things.
"Big Sister!"
Hearing Fang Junxue's words, a warm current suddenly surged through Ji Hongying's heart, melting her entire being.
Home!
This word was undoubtedly unfamiliar to her.
Otherwise, how could she have ended up in an orphanage and been adopted by Lin Fengxuan?
She called Fang Junxue "Big Sister" from the bottom of her heart.
At the same time, this also reflected Fang Junxue's position among the sisters.
"Alright! It's almost time! Are you all ready?"
Seeing this harmonious scene, Young Master Ye was probably the happiest.
"Don't worry! We've been ready for a long time!"
Nangong Qianyu was always the most energetic.
"Ye Ming! I won't be accompanying you this time."
At this moment, Fang Junxue suddenly spoke, "As we predicted earlier, Li Huan has managed to persuade Li Cunyao, and Future Technology is already pressuring Qianxue Group. Therefore, I cannot leave the company easily!"
Even though Fang Junxue very much wanted to witness this battle in person, for the sake of the bigger picture, she ultimately chose to guard the rear.
The reason why Li Huan targeted Qianxue Group was actually very simple.
Because when Ye Ming and the others rescued Zhou Ting, Li Huan only knew Fang Junxue.
As for Ye Ming, due to his "Teacher Ye" persona, he generally did not use his true appearance when out and about. Therefore, Li Huan did not recognize him.
Consequently, he could only target Qianxue Group to force Ye Ming to reveal himself.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Ye Ming stepped forward, gently pulling Fang Junxue into his embrace. His eyes were filled with emotion.
"Be careful yourself!"
After a brief embrace, Ye Ming looked at Doris and gave her a hug as well, whispering, "I'm leaving Junxue to you! All of you be careful!"
Since Fang Junxue had to stay behind, Doris would naturally remain by her side for protection.
After a brief exchange, Ye Ming directly tore open a spatial passage and walked in with the women.
After watching them depart, Fang Junxue retracted her gentle gaze. The moment she did, her eyes were filled with icy coldness.
"Let's go! It's time for our battlefield."
...
At the same moment, at Minghai City Airport, a flight bound for the capital was about to take off.
At the boarding gate, a woman with a prominent bust line looked at her boarding pass, a hint of confusion in her eyes.
"Why am I... going to the capital!"
...
Meanwhile, there were still two hours left until the decisive battle between Ye Ming and Gu Taiyi.
Due to the extensive publicity from Ye Ming and the Ancient Martial Arts Association, the news of this battle had virtually occupied the top spot on all domestic and international trending lists.
It was no exaggeration to call this battle a "battle that the world would witness."
The eyes of the entire world would be focused here.
"It's starting! It's finally starting! Old Demon Ye, prepare to face judgment!"
"Hahaha! The day has finally come! I'm in the capital right now and can witness the grace of President Gu!"
"I haven't seen Old Demon Ye around recently. Could he be hiding somewhere!"
"Eh! That's quite possible! After all, he's facing the number one ancient martial artist in China. It's not strange for him to flee before the battle!"
"No! That would be too disappointing!"
"Hmph! Teacher Ye would never run! You guys just wait and see!"
"Oh! A rare creature has been discovered! Still worshipping Old Demon Ye, could it be a fangirl!"
"Hahaha! It must be!"
"Alas! Another innocent girl harmed by Old Demon Ye! Such a pity!"
"Heartbroken! Old Demon Ye's sins are heinous!"
"..."
At this moment, in a villa in the capital, Nangong Qianyu stared intently at her phone screen, grinding her teeth.
"Alright! Qianyu! There's no need to argue with those people, it's not worth it!" Ji Hongying, seeing Nangong Qianyu about to smash her phone, quickly stopped her.
Yan Yinluo, pulling her other hand, also persuaded her, "It's normal that they don't understand Brother Ming now! They'll understand after this battle is over."
"Hmph! It makes me so angry!"
The more she looked, the angrier she became, so Nangong Qianyu simply turned off the screen and said angrily, "That's right! After Ye Ming defeats Old Man Gu, let's see how arrogant they can be!"
Just then, Ye Ming entered after finishing his conversation with Ying Qianshi and saw Nangong Qianyu stomping her feet. They exchanged a glance, somewhat bewildered.
"Oh? What's wrong? What has made my Qianyu so angry?"
Ye Ming came to her side and asked with a smile.
"Miss Qianyu, if anyone has offended you, please tell your subordinate, and I will immediately erase him from this world!" Ying Qianshi said with murderous intent.
"This... this shouldn't be that serious, right!" Ye Ming said with a wry smile, "Ying! You go to Tai Xuan Lake first, we'll be there shortly!"
"Yes!"
Upon receiving the order, Ying Qianshi turned into a black shadow and disappeared from the spot.
"Tell me! What's going on?"
Ye Ming pinched Nangong Qianyu's cheek and asked with a smile.
Finally, it was Yan Yinluo who explained the cause of the incident.
"This... just because of this?"
Upon learning the truth, Ye Ming felt a mix of amusement and helplessness.
She was actually arguing with those who were slandering him.
"You're still laughing!"
Seeing that Ye Ming didn't take it seriously at all, Nangong Qianyu became even angrier and directly declared, "Ye Ming! I warn you! If you lose this time, you won't... touch me anymore."
"No! And Yinluo, and Sister Hongying too! You won't touch them either!"
Nangong Qianyu grabbed the arms of the two women and glared at him fiercely.
"What?"
This statement seemed to have hit Ye Ming's weak spot, making him jump up.
How could his happiness in life be jeopardized so casually.
In response, Yan Yinluo and Ji Hongying expressed their solidarity and stood with Nangong Qianyu.
"Alright!"
At this point, Ye Ming had no choice but to go all out.
This was not a joke.
We offer three seconds of silence for Gu Taiyi.
...
Meanwhile, at Tai Xuan Lake in the capital.
Due to the Ancient Martial Arts Association, this place had been strictly forbidden to enter.
Therefore, most people who came to watch the battle could only observe from afar.
At the entrance, a black-clothed woman wearing a veil and holding a long saber walked over. Wherever she passed, the air seemed to grow colder.
"Miss, please stop, you're not allowed..."
"Scram!"
Before the two guards could finish speaking, their bodies flew backward.
