"This should be impossible," Su Hualin was truly unaware of the matters Ye Xiao spoke about.
Whether it was the generational grudge between the Linghuo Sect and Purple Fire Sect, or the new and old animosities between Ye Xiao and Linghuo Sect, these were internal issues, at least, they were matters of the Yan Country's Martial Arts World itself. As to what kind of organization the Soul Sect was, few experienced Martial Artists were unaware. Nineteen years ago, Yan Country had to rally almost all its Martial Artists to barely exchange for these years of peace. It's harrowing to remember that, in order to gain these years of tranquility, the six war gods of Yan Country and the god-like man of Yan Country vanished after that day.
Although many did not hope, nor believe in their passing, the truth was harsh and reality isn't a child's play.
Hence, everyone knew those heroes of Yan Country possibly really perished in the Par Ocean.
However, after that, the Soul Sect never launched a full-scale attack on Yan Country's Martial Arts World. So much so that some newer Martial Artists do not even remember that part of history.
But forgetting doesn't mean it didn't happen; Su Hualin remembers, always afraid to forget that the Soul Sect is the enemy of the whole Yan Country Martial Arts World, a fact he has engraved in his heart since youth.
"Yesterday, when you left with Mr. Su, I was ambushed by enemies, you should know this," Ye Xiao said to Su Hualin.
Su Hualin replied, "I've heard."
"These people were Soul Sect Disciples. Let me tell you, a large portion of the Northern Territory's power already lies in their hands, though few know it. But not knowing doesn't mean it isn't so," Ye Xiao said. "Do you know why I crippled Huo Wensong yesterday? Su Yun is one reason; the other is he's a traitor, willing to sacrifice the entire Northern Territory's Martial Artists for his own glory."
"Is... is this true?" Su Hualin was startled. If this is indeed true, he would truly be hesitant about whether the Linghuo Sect is still worth relying on.
Nineteen years ago, almost all Martial Artists of Yan Country thought the Soul Sect would forcibly enter Yan Country's Martial Arts World. However, a few unrivaled heroes arose, turning the tide when times were bleak, ultimately preventing Yan Country's Martial Arts World from being ravaged, though there were also those who betrayed their own for wealth and honor at that time.
"Yan Country is not short of heroes, nor does it ever lack villains!" Ye Xiao said. "I came to the Northern Territory for two reasons: first, for Su Yun; second, for our Yan Country Martial Arts World. Of course, haha, I could retreat at the last moment, take Su Yun away from the Su family and ignore the entire Northern Martial Arts World. Haha, Uncle Su, do you believe I could do it?"
Su Hualin, hearing this, was secretly tongue-tied. Ye Xiao could indeed do this, but if he truly did!
"You are a member of the Flame Dragon Team, even more so a person of the nation," Su Hualin said earnestly to Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao responded, "Haha, you're not quite right; let me tell you, I'm still a rightful Yan Country person, Uncle Su, what about you?"
Su Hualin fell silent immediately, not a fool, understanding that a single word from him could alter his family's destiny. He was indecisive about what to do.
After about ten seconds, Su Hualin said, "I'd like to see your identification."
"Uncle Su is indeed cautious, but being cautious is good," Ye Xiao said. "Not only will I let you see my identification, but I'll also have my subordinates enter the Su family. I want the Su family to be my base of operations."
"Ah?" Su Hualin exclaimed, shocked and quickly asked, "Ye Xiao, what do you mean by this?"
"What?" Ye Xiao laughed. "You think getting the Flame Dragon Team's support can be achieved by just standing idly by? Let me tell you, you now have two choices: remain loyal to the Linghuo Sect or choose the Flame Dragon Team. Decide for yourself. At a critical time, choosing the wrong side will teach you what being utterly crushed means!"
Su Hualin started sweating profusely, never imagining things would develop to this point.
"What... what do you want me to do?" Su Hualin asked.
Ye Xiao answered, "Uncle Su, don't misunderstand, I don't plan on making you do anything. I've reported to my superiors, planning to find a family to collaborate within the Northern Territory. Because of Su Yun, I chose the Su family. However, my choice doesn't represent the Su family's wishes. If the Su family is unwilling, of course, I'll choose another family. I think the Tang family, always at the bottom of the Northern Territory's five great factions, would be very willing to cooperate with the Flame Dragon Team."
Ye Xiao mentioning cooperation with the Flame Dragon Team pressured Su Hualin immensely.
Keep in mind, if it was just cooperating with Ye Xiao, it would be a personal relationship. But if it involved the Flame Dragon Team, the situation immediately turned different.
As the current head of the Su family, naturally, he hoped the Su family could rise to prominence.
In fact, whether it's any family or company, none would refuse to cooperate with the nation, seeking the country's support.
Today, many companies, though small, leap dramatically upon receiving national support, even if they incur losses year after year, owners still earn immensely.
"When do you plan to come?" Su Hualin abruptly asked.
Ye Xiao replied, "Anytime."
"Alright," Su Hualin immediately said, "I will await at the Su family."
"No rush, do a task first before that," Ye Xiao said.
Su Hualin asked in confusion, "What task?"
"Deal with Nanny Zhang," Ye Xiao said.
Su Hualin thought Ye Xiao bore resentment from the last time Nanny Zhang blocked him, quickly laughing, "Nanny Zhang isn't bad-hearted; she's been with the Su family for a long time."
"She's with the Soul Sect," Ye Xiao said.
Su Hualin, shocked, trembled, nearly dropping his phone.
"What?" Su Hualin said in disbelief, "How... how can this be? Nanny Zhang has always been Yunyun's nanny."
"She's indeed with the Soul Sect," Ye Xiao said. "You should understand I wouldn't joke about such things."
Su Hualin pondered a bit, then said, "Okay, I understand, I will handle it immediately."
"We'll arrive at the Su family by dusk, right now Linghuo Sect and Soul Sect have many spies, so, everything must proceed quietly," Ye Xiao said.
Su Hualin replied, "I understand, I'll be waiting for you at the Su family."
