Chapter 2231

“Ye Fan, where are we going? Are we leaving China?” Angie asked.

Ye Fan, who was at the wheel of a sports car, floored the accelerator as they sped down the highway.

Like a bolt of lightning, the gleaming red car zoomed past every other vehicle, leaving them in its dust.

As it turned out, Ye Fan had gotten Li Er to secure the car for him before the journey.

It was a limited edition Bugatti Veyron, boasting an impressive twelve hundred horsepower and a topspeed of four hundred and thirty-one kilometers per hour.

Even though that speed was nothing to write home about in Ye Fan's eyes, he undoubtedly had hisreason for leaving in a car.

“Yes. I'm taking you to a secret place, Angie,” he replied. “It's completely safe there, but you might alsofeel much lonelier. Do you think you'll be okay with that?”

Ye Fan had long thought of a place to go.

His primary goal for leaving was to go into solitary training and break through the god realm, so ofcourse, he would need to be in a secure location.

Otherwise, his cultivation might be disturbed, which would subsequently foil his plan and render itimpossible for him to extend Angie's life.

Angie's face instantly broke into a smile. “It's okay. With you around, I'll never feel lonely, no matterwhere we go. But are you really not bringing Lin along, Ye Fan? Everyone knows he's your flesh andblood, and if the International Martial Arts Union can't get their hands on you, they'd surely go afterhim.”

Needless to say, she was a little worried.

The truth was that Ye Fan did not have many family members left in the world.

Even though the Chu family were his paternal relatives, he had always regarded them as opponentsfrom an early age and thus felt no familial love for them. That was why he did not care about themduring the current crisis.

Besides, the Chu family was a powerful clan with many years of history, so naturally, the Chus musthave cards up their sleeve which could save their lives.

It would not be easy for the International Martial Arts Union to annihilate the Chu family.

The union was also mindful of the grudge between Ye Fan and the Chu family, so it was unlikely theywould do anything too drastic toward the Chu family.

In fact, there was an even higher possibility of the Chu family joining forces with the InternationalMartial Arts Union to hunt Ye Fan down.

Therefore, Ye Fan was not at all worried about the situation on the Chu family's side.

The only people he needed to care about were his uncles and aunt.

Thankfully, Ye Tian and the others were not considered big targets, so Ye Fan arranged for them to livein seclusion in India. With them blending into the local scene and having Junie's secret protection, itwould be like looking for a needle in a haystack if the International Martial Arts Union ever tried to replacethem.

Moreover, the union might not be willing to waste so many resources to track down a few mere mortals.

Chu Lin, however, was a completely different story.

If the International Martial Arts Union failed to apprehend Ye Fan, they would, without a doubt, doeverything to hunt down Chu Lin instead.

After all, he was Ye Fan's only son, and there was nothing more excruciating than a father's pain oflosing his child.

Despite that, Ye Fan smiled calmly in response. “You don't have to worry about Lin. I've alreadyarranged for him to be sent to my great-grandmother's residence, which also happens to be the Chufamily's ancestral house. You can rest assured that it's well-protected by Great-grandma and Mr.Yunyang. Even if the top four fighters on the Empyrean Ranking were to join forces, it'd be toughenough for them to make a dent, much less break into the house.”

He had confidence in his great-grandmother's ability.

Truth be told, he even considered locking himself away in the Chu residence for his cultivation butdecided against it upon recalling his great-grandmother's age. He did not want to give the elderlywoman any more trouble than necessary, so it was best that he leave.

Ye Fan was already immensely grateful for her help in caring for Lin.

Meanwhile, it was not long after Ye Fan's departure that a massive group of fighters began flocking toYunzhou.

Even fighter jets hovered in Jiangdong's airspace as they awaited their orders.

At Dongchang Lake, several Grandmasters from War God Castle brought Li Er over to Chen Jiuzhou.

“Hall Master, this is Li Er, Chu Tianfan's most trusted subordinate! He's the one who helps to manageJiangdong when Chu Tianfan isn't around!” Zhao Zhenlu reported as he pointed at the severely beatenand bruised Li Er.

Chen Jiuzhou glanced at Li Er. “I remember him. He even insulted me during my enthronementceremony. I bet you never expected that I'd ascend to the top of China in such a short time, huh? YeFan, on the contrary, has become a pathetic piece of trash. Tell me—where has he gone to?” hedemanded coldly.

The next second, Zhao Zhenlu landed a kick on Li Er's knee. “Get on your knees and answer HallMaster, you geezer!”

Li Er, who had never been the bravest person, gritted his teeth to endure the pain as he dropped to hisknees against his will.

“Pfft! You're nothing but a lying hypocrite. What right do you have to be China's leader? Go ahead andkill me! I'd rather die than divulge Mr. Chu's whereabouts! However, I do believe that Mr. Chu willavenge my death!” Li Er thundered, rage pulsing through his veins.

Hmph! Wasn't it only a few days ago when Chen Jiuzhou swore never to enter Jiangdong again?What's he doing in Yunzhou now?

“Your words are just a bunch of bullsh*t!” Li Er added unfeelingly. “Who's going to listen to you?”

Smack!

Enraged, Zhao Zhenlu slapped Li Er hard across the face. “You have a death wish, you geezer!” hespat.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Just then, several loud, piercing sounds resonated in the air.

When Chen Jiuzhou heard those sounds, his arrogance was quickly replaced by a look of utmostrespect.

He ordered everyone to stand on either side as they patiently waited for the big shots to arrive.

Seconds later, a gust of cold wind swept across the lake, revealing four towering figures standing in thebeautiful skies of Yunzhou.

After surveying the surroundings, one of the female figures asked coldly, “Huh? Where's Chu Tianfan?”

“I was too late, Master. Chu Tianfan seems to have already left Jiangdong. However, I've captured hismost trusted subordinate. Once I interrogate him, I'm sure I can get him to tell us where Chu Tianfanis!” Chen Jiuzhou replied anxiously.

Even he was stressed out by the intimidating aura of the four people.

Li Er, who was all bloodied and still kneeling on the ground, suddenly shouted, “You can all forget aboutit! Instead of being grateful to Mr. Chu for saving the country and its people, you b*stards are intent onkilling him! You're the ones who chased him away, and you'll regret it one day... I swear you'll regret it!”

Chen Jiuzhou was thoroughly infuriated. “You geezer! How dare you insult the top fighters on theEmpyrean Ranking! You must be sick and tired of living!”

He clenched his fists tightly as murderous intent enveloped him.

Seeing how adamant Li Er was about being tight-lipped, Chen Jiuzhou changed his mind. He no longerwished to fish for information from him.

Thus, he swung his sword down, ready to end Li Er's life.

Thankfully, Ye Qingtian arrived with Xu Lei in the nick of time. “Stop!”

Without further ado, Ye Qingtian knocked Chen Jiuzhou backward with a palm strike and rescued Li Er.

“What are you doing, Ye Qingtian? How dare you attack me so blatantly! Are you trying to rebel?” ChenJiuzhou bellowed with nary an ounce of respect for Ye Qingtian.

The latter, however, had no plans to argue with Chen Jiuzhou. “Hall Master Chen, I just think that as aleader, you should lead by example and abide by the rules. Li Er isn't blood-related to Chu Tianfan, soaccording to the motion, he shouldn't be implicated. Killing unrelated individuals like him is a willfulviolation on your part and is against the International Martial Arts Union's resolution. How can youappease the public if word gets out about this? Worst of all, the reputation of the International MartialArts Union will also be ruined.”

Even though Ye Qingtian's reasoning was sound, Chen Jiuzhou could not care less.

“He's just a small fry. Who'd dare go against me for killing him?”

With that, Chen Jiuzhou was about to strike again when Mu Zihua's voice rang out.

“Give it a rest, Jiuzhou. War God is right. As a leader, you should lead by example. Otherwise, you'lllose the trust of your people. How will you soar to greater heights in the future without their support?”She seemed to care a lot about prestige and reputation.

Since his master had already spoken, Chen Jiuzhou did not waste another second on Li Er. Fine... Iguess they do make a good point. Prestige and orthodoxy are crucial to anyone who wants to rule themartial arts world. Such indiscriminate violence will only cause people to lose all confidence andrespect for me. When that happens, it'd be even more difficult for us to implement other resolutions inthe future...

The next second, he ordered Yunzhou's governor to mobilize all his city's resources to track down YeFan.

Thanks to the power of China's Sky Net, it did not take long before Chen Jiuzhou managed to zero inon Ye Fan's location.

“Master, we've found him! Ye Fan's driving a red sports car down Highway 0321...” he exclaimed beforeproviding the coordinates to Mu Zihua.

At the same time, those fighter jets that were on standby began closing in on Ye Fan while the strategicbomber carrying nuclear bombs followed swiftly behind.

In addition, Chen Jiuzhou used his power as the hall master of War God Castle to order a citywideblockade of all major highways' entrances and exits.

With the multi-pronged approach employed to apprehend their target, it seemed that Ye Fan wasdoomed.
