"Speak, what's the matter?" Not far from Golden Shore, in a teahouse, Ye Huan sipped a bit of tea and said indifferently.

"Crown Prince..."

"Use a different title."

"Mr. Ye, I came to you this time to discuss something important."

Nan Rui took a sip of tea, unhesitatingly and bluntly said, "May I ask, Mr. Ye, do you still remember the incident at a barbecue stall in Celestial Sea where my brother Nan Zhen was crippled?"

"And which eye of yours saw that it was me who crippled your brother?" Ye Huan remained calm, picked up the steaming teacup, and blew on it.

"Whether it was you or not is not important." Nan Zhen's demeanor was extremely assertive, speaking coldly, "Anyway, my brother Nan Zhen was crippled, and you are largely to blame."

"So what?"

"So, our Nan Family needs an explanation." Nan Rui's expression was serious as he said, "Mr. Ye, we in the Nan Family are not trying to make things difficult for you, we just need you to publicly apologize to my brother Nan Zhen in the Capital City."

"If you came here just to talk about this, you can go back where you came from."

"Firstly, I have neither the reason nor the necessity to apologize to Nan Zhen;"

"Secondly, if an apology is to be made, it should be from Nan Zhen."

Ye Huan took another sip of tea, remaining expressionless.

It should be from Nan Zhen?

Upon hearing this, a hint of malice arose in Nan Rui's heart: "Mr. Ye, aren't you being unreasonable? My brother was crippled by you, and you are asking my brother to apologize to you?"

"Be glad your brother lives in Huaxia." The corner of Ye Huan's mouth slightly curved, revealing a large white tooth, "If he were in the West, he would have died ten thousand times over."

Nan Rui's face darkened.

This Ye Huan, was excessively arrogant.

"Mr. Ye, there's no need to speak so harshly, is there?"

"Are you aware of the impending alliance between the Nan Family and the Qin Family?"

Nan Rui asked coldly.

"Yes, and so what?" Ye Huan maintained a nonchalant demeanor.

"After the marriage alliance between Nan and Qin families in a month, the Qin Family will become our patron, and will share adversity with the Nan Family."

"Dragon Gate's Qin Family has no fear of your Ye Li families. By then, if the Qin Family finds out that you crippled my brother Nan Zhen, they will surely trouble you."

"I believe you wouldn't want things to develop to that point, would you?"

Nan Rui said meaningfully, his words carrying a significant hint of threat.

But little did he know, the person in front of him was the famed God of Slaughter from the Dark World?

Not to mention the Qin Family, even if the Di Family came, they might not gain any advantage over Ye Huan.

"Enough with the nonsense, if that's all you have to say, then go back where you came from." Ye Huan replied impatiently.

"Ye Huan, don't go too far, you crippled my brother's limbs, causing him to be unable to fend for himself for life, is it so hard to apologize?"

"I know your strength is formidable and your background is powerful."

"But so what."

Nan Rui sneered, "No matter how strong you are, can you surpass Dragon Gate's Qin Family? No matter how powerful the Ye Li families are, they are still secular families, though their status matches the Qin Family, their strength is far inferior! If you refuse to apologize, and the Qin Family finds you... hahaha, you understand the consequences, the Ye Li families won't be able to protect you."

Ye Huan's eyes turned cold: "Are you threatening me?"

"Not a threat, just presenting the pros and cons to you."

"Ye Huan, the Nan Family will soar in a month. With the Qin Family backing us, we will become a super first-tier family or even a super family in the Capital City. In the future, our strength might even match or surpass the Ye Li families."

"So, you crippled the third young master of a super family in the Capital City."

"Is it so difficult to just apologize?"

"And once you apologize, our Nan Family assures you that this matter will be put to rest, and we will not trouble or retaliate against you over this."

Nan Rui spoke with a composed face.

Although he claimed it wasn't a threat, his words were full of threat.

If it was in the past, how would he dare to threaten the Crown Prince?

But now it's different, with the Qin Family as backing, there's nothing Nan Rui wouldn't dare to do.

Ye Huan's strength is indeed formidable, but stronger than the Qin Family?

It's known that the Qin Family's peak combat power is the Vice Sect Leader of Dragon Gate!

After about fifteen seconds, seeing Ye Huan remained unmoved, Nan Rui's face gradually darkened again.

Nan Rui took a sip of tea and slowly said, "Crown Prince Ye, our Nan Family has shown great sincerity."

Ye Huan raised his teacup, drank the hot tea in one gulp, casually picked up a toothpick, looking extremely casual, said:

"Just a reminder, I particularly hate threats."

"To trouble and retaliate against me, both your Nan and Qin families need that capability."

"One last warning to you, warn Nan Zhen, warn both your Nan and Qin families. If you dare to stir up trouble with me again without cause... the consequences are at your own risk!"

The meaning in these heavily emphasized words was deep, spoken while a cold glimmer flashed in his eyes.

In that moment, Nan Rui felt an overwhelming killing intent and fear enveloping his heart, his entire body drenched in cold sweat, becoming stiff.

It was a full five minutes after Ye Huan left before he finally came to his senses, still filled with lingering fear.

Indeed a master.

A master of the utmost strength!

The killing intent was so intense.

But...

Nan Zhen's face took on a deep, cold expression.

To dare to threaten the Nan Family, threaten the Qin Family?

Ye Huan, you're really relying on a little strength to be this arrogant.

Ignorant of the immensity of Heaven and Earth.

Nan Rui sneered, his face a mix of uncertainty as he started to scheme.

Ye Huan is being unreasonably bold, but the Ye Li families surely aren't foolish.

If no apology is made, they will risk breaking with the Qin Family!

Taking this into account, the Ye Li families will surely order Ye Huan to apologize to the Nan Family!

Nan Rui nodded, pulled out his phone, and made a call to the Nan Family's steward, issuing an order:

"Inform the Ye Li families that Nan Zhen was crippled by Ye Huan, get him to apologize to the Nan Family!"

...

Capital City, the leader's office.

"Ridiculous to the extreme."

Li Hentian, after hearing Officer Xiao Wu's report, showed a strong look of disdain.

The insignificant Nan Family actually dared to demand an apology from the Ye Li families?

They really don't know their place, ignorant of the immensity of Heaven and Earth.

"No need to pay attention." Li Hentian said calmly.

"Understood." Officer Xiao Wu nodded, then shifted his tone, saying, "By the way, number one, I have already sent the letter from the young master to Dragon Gate."

"Hmm, I got it, you may leave." Li Hentian waved his hand.

Xiao Wu withdrew.

At this moment.

Facing Li Hentian's desk, an old man with gold-rimmed glasses examined the documents in his hand, his eyes gradually turning cold: "Unexpectedly, these so-called great families dare to commit so many intolerable acts right under our noses."

The documents in his hands recorded the myriad crimes and misdemeanors uncovered by the Special Service Bureau's meticulous investigation of all families in the Capital City.

If these documents were to be piled together, they would be thicker than two books combined.

Among them, the Nan Family has committed the most sins.

Nan Family Patriarch Nan Zhan, guilty of murder, raping women, illegal punishments... totaling over twenty charges.

Nan Family members, were no better off.

"Yes, hence the need for the 'Great Purge' action." Li Hentian said calmly, "After the Special Service Bureau and various departments' investigations over these days, local hegemonic families have all entered the 'cleanup' list, with full evidences and charges completed."

"One month later, the action will formally begin." Li Hentian said, signing his name with a "swish swish swish" on an operation secret order.

Ye Yaoguo nodded slightly, took off his gold-rimmed glasses, and solemnly asked: "Are we proceeding with the original plan, using the Nan Family as an example?"

"The Nan Family, and the Huang Family."

"Notify, secretly freeze immigration permissions of all guilty individuals within the Nan and Huang families."

"Order the whole army of the Special Service Bureau to prepare for battle."

"One month later, at the Nan Family manor, when Ye Huan and Qin Ya marry..."

Li Hentian slowly stood up, suddenly slammed the desk, a deep-seated killing intent flashing in his eyes:

"Destroy the Nan Family!"
