"Why are you looking for me?" Ren Yuxing seemed much easier to deal with than Ren Tianye. At these words, Hua Xiangrong spoke first, taking the prepared documents and placing them in front of Ren Yuxing. Ren Yuxing frowned at the documents; how could he not recognize the building in them?

"What, what do you mean?" Ren Yuxing asked, puzzled. Upon hearing this, Hua Xiangrong chuckled and said, "Is this building under your name?"

Hearing this from Hua Xiangrong, Ren Yuxing nodded matter-of-factly. The documents clearly stated everything, and he had no reason to deceive Hua Xiangrong. Seeing this, Hua Xiangrong's face suddenly turned serious, "There was a kidnapping in your building, didn't you know?"

As Hua Xiangrong said this, Ren Yuxing immediately frowned, but quickly shook his head, looking puzzled, indicating he genuinely did not know about it. Seeing Ren Yuxing like this, Qianxi was also somewhat doubtful, just like with Ren Tianye before, making it hard to believe.

Seeing Qianxi's skeptical expression, Ren Yuxing immediately put on a wronged look and said, "Beauty, you don't believe me." At that, Hua Xiangrong sneered, saying, "It's not that we don't believe you. If you say you don't know about the kidnapping, that's one thing, but did you know there has been another disappearance in your building? If you say you don't know again, that's a bit much."

Hua Xiangrong stared at Ren Yuxing, speaking each word carefully, because in a typical building, security would check the surveillance regularly. It's impossible for someone to disappear without the owner knowing. That's why Hua Xiangrong doubted the credibility of Ren Yuxing's words.

Sure enough, Ren Yuxing's face darkened at those words. Ren Tianye, who had been silent, started to guess secretly after seeing Ren Yuxing's expression. After a moment, Ren Tianye frowned and asked, "You didn't do these things, did you?"

Hearing that, Ren Yuxing looked at Ren Tianye, and seeing Ren Tianye's serious expression, Ren Yuxing sighed helplessly and shook his head, "I didn't do those things." Saying this, Ren Yuxing calmly looked at Hua Xiangrong. Since he didn't do them, he had no reason to be nervous.

Seeing this, Qianxi chuckled and said, "So, you're saying you knew?" Ren Yuxing was a bit stunned by Qianxi's words. Indeed, Ren Yuxing knew everything that happened in his building, as it was all orchestrated by someone else.

"Why!" A loud banging sound echoed in the vast room, which was a prison. The dark walls accentuated the coldness there, and even in this chilly room, there was something quite irritable, that was Ci Xin. Seeing Xiao Yifei shake his head, Ci Xin immediately got angry, slamming the table and pointing at Xiao Yifei to question him.

Seeing this, Xiao Yifei furrowed his brow. Before shaking his head at Ci Xin, Xiao Yifei had already anticipated this scenario, so he wasn't afraid. Besides, only Xiao Yifei could perform the acupuncture now; if he died, Ci Xin would never uncover the secrets of the Bronze Gate.

"Why not help me with the acupuncture?" Ci Xin asked again, trying to be patient when Xiao Yifei didn't respond. Xiao Yifei sneered and said, "Why should I?" Hearing Xiao Yifei's question, Ci Xin took a deep breath and continued to hold his patience, "You have no room to maneuver with me now."

Hearing this, Xiao Yifei laughed and responded, "But you must rely on me to break through, don't you think I have leverage?" Upon hearing this, Ci Xin gritted his teeth, because Xiao Yifei's words were entirely accurate. Ci Xin needed Xiao Yifei, so Xiao Yifei indeed had the capital to negotiate with Ci Xin.

The atmosphere instantly became a little awkward. After a while, Ci Xin gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, have it your way. From today on, you won't get any food, let's see if you'll keep up your stubbornness." With that, Ci Xin waved dismissively, too lazy to argue with Xiao Yifei, and turned around to leave.

Watching Ci Xin's departing figure, Xiao Yifei shook his head helplessly, then calmly walked back to his room with Yu Jing. Seeing Xiao Yifei return safely, Liu Bailong, who had been a little worried, finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed Ci Xin hadn't done anything to Xiao Yifei.

After Yu Jing left, Liu Bailong asked with concern, "Xiao Yifei, are you okay?" Hearing this, Xiao Yifei smiled and said, "Haha, no, Ci Xin doesn't dare touch me." Naturally, Liu Bailong could tell Xiao Yifei was bluffing; it wasn't that Ci Xin wouldn't dare touch him. Liu Bailong just didn't know why Ci Xin was looking for Xiao Yifei.

So, Liu Bailong asked Lin Xiaoyifei, "Xiao Yifei, what did Ci Xin want with you?" Hearing this, Xiao Yifei sighed helplessly and then told Liu Bailong about Ci Xin wanting him to do acupuncture. Liu Bailong appeared somewhat surprised, puzzling over why Ci Xin wanted a breakthrough just like Xiao Yifei had at the beginning.

Of course, Xiao Yifei didn't tell Liu Bailong about the Bronze Gate. He thought the fewer people who knew, the better. So, Xiao Yifei also said he didn't know why Ci Xin wanted to break through the Golden Elixir Realm. Luckily, Liu Bailong didn't ponder too much and just told Xiao Yifei, "So you refused her?"

Hearing that, Xiao Yifei confirmed to Liu Bailong that he declined Ci Xin. When Liu Bailong heard Xiao Yifei had refused Ci Xin, he clicked his tongue, seeming a bit regretful.

Listening to Liu Bailong's sigh, Xiao Yifei was puzzled and asked, "Uncle Liu, why are you sighing?" Hearing this, Liu Bailong shared his reason. It turned out Liu Bailong hoped Xiao Yifei could use the opportunity of helping Ci Xin with acupuncture to negotiate with Ci Xin for his release.

Understanding Liu Bailong's reason, Xiao Yifei shook his head helplessly. Actually, Xiao Yifei had thought of that too, but he had his own reasons.

Ci Xin's temperament was erratic, already showing signs of schizophrenia. If Ci Xin broke through the Golden Elixir Realm, combined with a solid cultivation background, who in the entire country could stand against him?

If one day Ci Xin felt he should become king, wouldn't Xiao Yifei be the culprit to blame? Hence, Xiao Yifei dared not easily do acupuncture for Ci Xin, fearing such things might happen. So, Xiao Yifei slowly explained to Liu Bailong. After hearing Xiao Yifei's explanation, Liu Bailong sighed helplessly.

Because, considering Ci Xin's character, what Xiao Yifei said could indeed happen. Xiao Yifei's foresight was indeed more long-term than Liu Bailong's. Understanding the reason, Liu Bailong didn't say much more, choosing at this moment to fully trust Xiao Yifei.

In the days Xiao Yifei was imprisoned, Elder Hua suddenly received some news, asking him to immediately visit the national security bureau. Upon receiving this news, Elder Hua felt something amiss and rushed to the place promptly.

At this time, Qianxi was with Hua Xiangrong, waiting for Ren Yuxing to answer. During the interrogation just now, Hua Xiangrong and Qianxi realized that Ren Yuxing actually knew everything. "So, what's going on?" Hua Xiangrong asked calmly.
