As soon as Ye Xiao spoke, Songzhu Mingsan was at a loss for words; what Ye Xiao said was spot on.

If Ryokawa Hemei truly believed that Ye Xiao could kill Fu Tianjue, then Ye Xiao wouldn't be here today. After all, Fu Tianjue's strength is formidable. If Fu Tianjue was killed by Ye Xiao, Ye Xiao's power would be terrifying, and Ryokawa Hemei wouldn't have such confidence.

However, that being said.

The Ye family in Yan Country doesn't have any notable power, and how could Ye Xiao surpass Fu Tianjue in strength? Let's not forget, Ye Xiao is just a young man around twenty, with a naive face, totally resembling a student.

Such a person could kill Fu Tianjue? Whether others believe it or not, Ryokawa Hemei certainly wouldn't; she felt it was an absolute joke.

"I want to know the whereabouts of Geoff Rothschild and the key figures of the Rothschild family in Bird City." Ryokawa Hemei looked at Ye Xiao and spoke with a calm expression.

"Haha, Miss Ryukawa holds me in such high regard. Do you truly think I know everything?" Ye Xiao said with a smile. "Moreover, the Rothschilds are a legendary financial conglomerate; how could I possibly know them?"

"Mr. Ye, if you tell me, I can spare your life!" Ryokawa Hemei said with a light laugh.

Ye Xiao immediately laughed and said, "Miss Ryukawa is indeed merciful. I wonder, is Miss Ryukawa merciful only to me, or is she this way to everyone?"

Ryokawa Hemei said, "Mr. Ye, we have talked a lot, but most of it is nonsense. Your skills are impressive. If you are willing to work for me, I believe the future will be very bright."

"Sure!" Ye Xiao instantly agreed after hearing Ryokawa Hemei's words.

Ryokawa Hemei was also taken aback; she hadn't expected Ye Xiao to agree so readily.

"Did you say you agreed?" Ryokawa Hemei asked, confirming while looking at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao nodded and said, "Of course I agreed. There's no need to consider it. Everyone likes a bright future, and I don't need any compensation."

No money?

Ryokawa Hemei heard Ye Xiao's words and was somewhat puzzled. She said, "Then Mr. Ye must have other requests. Feel free to say them."

"Miss Ryukawa, you truly are my confidant. I have some thoughts in mind, and you've actually guessed them," Ye Xiao said with a slight smile.

At this moment, Feng Xinming, listening to the exchange between Ye Xiao and Ryokawa Hemei, immediately frowned. Clearly, he realized that if Ye Xiao truly was willing to assist Ryokawa Hemei, then his son's death might be in vain, and Ye Xiao wouldn't suffer any losses. So, at this moment, no matter what, he couldn't let Ye Xiao pledge loyalty; he absolutely couldn't let his son die in vain.

"Miss Ryukawa, this is absolutely unacceptable!" Feng Xinming immediately turned to Ryokawa Hemei and shouted, "My beloved son was killed by Ye Xiao, and Songzhu-kun's brother was also killed by Ye Xiao. Ye Xiao is like a wolf, like a tiger; he absolutely cannot be trusted."

Ryokawa Hemei looked at Feng Xinming, frowning slightly, and said, "Between the two of us, who decides matters?"

Ryokawa Hemei frowned slightly; Feng Xinming saw this clearly and was instantly scared, his mind shaken, and he said, "I'm sorry!"

"Have you guys said enough? If you have, then it's my turn to speak." Ye Xiao said casually.

Ryokawa Hemei looked toward Ye Xiao and said, "Please speak, Mr. Ye. Whatever terms you propose, I believe I can meet them."

Ye Xiao listened to Ryokawa Hemei's words, burst into laughter, and said, "I don't have many hobbies in life, my only one being, well, lust. Miss Ryukawa should understand this."

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Ryokawa Hemei paused slightly. It was evident that Ye Xiao had a purpose in saying these things. Ryokawa Hemei was a smart woman; thus, as soon as Ye Xiao finished speaking, she pretty much understood the situation.

Ye Xiao, of course, knew that Ryokawa Hemei understood, but he didn't intend to let her speak, continuing instead, "Money and such don't interest me at all. The only thing that catches my eye is you, Miss Ryukawa."

"How bold!" Songzhu Mingsan immediately glared at Ye Xiao and shouted.

At this moment, no one had expected Ye Xiao to be so brazen, directly wanting Ryokawa Hemei, such brazen courage, such lustful boldness!

Upon hearing this, Feng Xinming also inwardly laughed. Initially, he was somewhat afraid that Ryokawa Hemei would make Ye Xiao pledge loyalty, but Ye Xiao's words at this moment made him immediately understand that Ye Xiao was doomed.

Ryokawa Hemei might not be old, but her formidable power was terrifying. Many had desired Ryokawa Hemei before, but the final outcome was a dead end.

Because this is called desecration!

The Investiture of the Gods records how the Shang King was destroyed for desecrating the image of Goddess Nuwa.

Likewise, many have died for desecrating Ryokawa Hemei's beauty.

Thus, few dare to so bluntly express their interest in Ryokawa Hemei.

However, just when Feng Xinming and Songzhu Mingsan both thought Ryokawa Hemei would erupt in fury, she suddenly started to laugh.

"Mr. Ye is really quite straightforward." Ryokawa Hemei smiled slightly and said, "Lustful, yet so frank. However, Mr. Ye, you should understand a principle, that to obtain anything, one must pay a price, unless his strength is sufficient to acquire it."

"Of course, I never speak irresponsibly." Ye Xiao said quite casually.

Evidently, Ye Xiao really seemed to be an earnest sort of person.

Ryokawa Hemei gently placed down her wine glass and, smiling, said to Ye Xiao, "I once swore to the heavens that my partner must be no more than three years older or younger than me and cannot be unattractive. Of course, the most important criterion is that he must be able to defeat me in a fight. If these three conditions are met, I don't mind becoming anyone's woman. Similarly, for my partner, I can change my beliefs because, to me, such a partner signifies the heavens."

Ye Xiao listened to Ryokawa Hemei's words and, smiling, said, "It seems that to become Miss Ryukawa's man, one really needs true strength. Sweet talk doesn't seem to cut it. So, can you tell me, what if someone doesn't meet these three conditions but is determined to be with you, what then?"

"Death!" Ryokawa Hemei said.

Ye Xiao said, "What if he can help the Liuchuan family?"

"That doesn't matter. What matters is that he must die!" Ryokawa Hemei said cheerfully.

"It seems that the family is insignificant compared to your future," Ye Xiao said.

Ryokawa Hemei looked at Ye Xiao and said, "You're quite right; it is indeed insignificant. What I say will not change, nor will the vows I've made. Because I am Ryokawa Hemei."
