"Young Master Ye, I have no intention of offending the Ye Family." Leng Aozhou's face was sullen as he raised the red wine glass in front of him. Though he spoke of no intention to offend, the mysterious energy emitted from his body did not weaken in the slightest.

"What do you want?" Ye Tianfan was nearly immobilized by suppression; it was the first time he had been directly and comprehensively overwhelmed by someone!

The mysterious energy released by Leng Aozhou enveloped Ye Tianfan, targeting almost all his acupuncture points. Any slight movement from Ye Tianfan, and these energies would penetrate his acupoints like fine needles.

"I just want to tell you one thing..." Leng Aozhou took a sip of red wine, a gleam flashing in his eyes: "Our Leng Family despises using disgraceful means like car accidents! Even if I were to deal with the Long Family and Qin Family, I would confront them openly. Being sneaky is not my style."

As his voice fell, Leng Aozhou's mysterious energy abruptly dissipated, and Ye Tianfan felt significantly relieved. Leng Aozhou's energy came swiftly as a thunderclap and dispersed as quickly as a lightning bolt, the swift change making Ye Tianfan's heart race and a layer of fine sweat bead on his forehead.

In Leng Aozhou, Ye Tianfan saw the shadow of the Ye Family elder. If it really came to a showdown, the only one capable of contending with Leng Aozhou would be the Ye Family elder.

In front of such absolute masters, all trivial moves are futile. Ye Tianfan knew that if Leng Aozhou wanted to make a move, his chances of walking out of the Leng Group building alive were almost zero.

Moreover, beside Leng Aozhou stood Xue Qianxun!

"You're saying the highway accident has nothing to do with your Leng Family?" Long Yuqing's eyes still harbored a great deal of animosity.

Leng Aozhou nodded solemnly: "Of course it has nothing to do with our Leng Family, just like Leng Xingfeng's death has nothing to do with you."

Leng Aozhou's words undoubtedly stirred a huge wave in everyone's hearts. Originally, Long Yuqing and Qin Ruomeng were waiting for Leng Aozhou to demand justice, especially since Leng Xingfeng was Leng Aozhou's only son and had tragically died in Jiangzhou City. Anyone would first suspect the Qin Group and Long Group.

And now,

Leng Aozhou was outright saying his son's death had nothing to do with the Long Family or Qin Family?

What is he playing at?

Since he knows Leng Xingfeng's death has nothing to do with the Qin Family or Long Family, why did he expend so much effort to invite Long Yuqing and Qin Ruomeng to Dongzhou City?

What exactly is Leng Aozhou after?

Ye Tianfan was extremely puzzled and couldn't help but ask: "Since the misunderstanding has been cleared up, Master Leng, what did you invite us here for?"

Leng Aozhou's eyes narrowed slightly, a cold gleam flashed in them, his right hand trembled slightly, and the mysterious energy inside him instinctively spread outward.

Ye Tianfan's expression suddenly changed; he could see Leng Aozhou exerting great control over his emotions, trying not to get angry.

"The misunderstanding is resolved, but don't you want to know who's creating these misunderstandings?" Leng Aozhou finally suppressed the fury in his heart.

Leng Aozhou had a son late in life, and Leng Xingfeng was his only child. Naturally, he was a beloved treasure. Now that Leng Xingfeng is dead, it's like a piece of his heart has been gouged out; how could he not feel heartbroken, how could he not be angry.

Leng Aozhou was merely suppressing his rage in front of Ye Tianfan, as a senior, he didn't want to lose his dignity. Moreover, Leng Aozhou had deep ties with the Ye Family elder, so he didn't want to lose his composure in front of Ye Tianfan.

But Leng Xingfeng's death, he must thoroughly investigate. Whoever is behind the scenes must pay a bloody price.

Let them know, the Leng Family! Is not to be trifled with!

Seeing Leng Aozhou's state, Qin Ruomeng instinctively frowned: "What does this person, who secretly stirs trouble and wants to sow discord, ultimately want to achieve?"

"Is it for business?" Long Yuqing also furrowed her brows deeply, glanced at Qin Ruomeng, and said: "If our two families break off with the Leng family, the maritime trade systems in Jiangzhou City will almost collapse. Who then is the biggest beneficiary?"

As soon as she finished speaking, both Long Yuqing and Qin Ruomeng simultaneously froze, nearly speaking in unison a name: "Huang Xiaorou!"

If the Qin and Long families break off with the Leng family, the maritime trade system would certainly collapse, but the docks in Jiangzhou City wouldn't stay idle. If the Qin Family and Long Family fell, naturally other companies would rise. Among those, under the Long Family and Qin Family, the most powerful company would be the Huang Group.

Previously, Huang Shengtian had staged a drama of 'The clams and the snipe fight, the fisherman benefits.' Is Huang Xiaorou now planning a 'The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind' drama?

This thought made Long Yuqing and Qin Ruomeng break out in a cold sweat.

But at this moment, a glint of murderous intent appeared in Leng Aozhou's eyes as he spoke in a deep voice: "If it's someone from the business world stirring trouble, it's easy to handle. The only fear is if it isn't..."

"Isn't?" Ye Tianfan raised his sword-like eyebrows and asked: "Master Leng's meaning is that it might be someone from the Ancient Martial Realm?"

Leng Aozhou nodded and glanced at Xue Qianxun.

Xue Qianxun quickly nodded, her smile disappearing instantly, her face frost-like as she turned to walk towards a small cabinet, raised her hand to take out a wooden box, then came before everyone.

"What is this?"

Ye Tianfan was somewhat surprised.

Xue Qianxun did not answer Ye Tianfan's question but slowly opened the wooden box and took out a silver wine glass from it.

And just at the moment the wine glass appeared.

Ye Tianfan's expression suddenly became tense. On this silver wine glass, surprisingly, nine intricately carved flying dragons were coiled around the body of the cup, their heads all facing upward, mouths pointed at the rim of the cup, the design was truly a masterpiece.

Ye Tianfan had seen this cup before; it had previously appeared in Fang Zaitian's hands — it was the Nine-Dragon Cup!

But the Nine-Dragon Cup in Fang Zaitian's hand at that time was fake, used to deceive Chen Changsheng.

And now the Nine-Dragon Cup Xue Qianxun took from the wooden box was evidently the genuine article.

Because the moment this cup was taken out, Ye Tianfan felt a strong scent of blood emanating from it.

The Nine-Dragon Cup that stirred a bloody storm in the Ancient Martial Realm reappearing in the world, how could it not be shocking!

Legend has it that anyone who receives the Nine-Dragon Cup is sure to die, and the cup would be filled with blood! Even now, the Nine-Dragon Cup remains shrouded in mystery; who is its owner? Which mysterious organization is using it, all are mysteries.

Leng Aozhou's face suddenly turned cold, and he said solemnly: "This was received on the day my son died."
