Li Chengfeng gradually calmed down and indeed, as Li Yiming mentioned, the Li Family currently had countless small factions within. Among these, the Xie Family faction led by Xie Nan was the most entrenched and convoluted.

As the head of the Li Family, Li Chengfeng was not dull-minded; on the contrary, he saw through these people quite clearly. But since these individuals had not made any excessive moves, he had always turned a blind eye.

But now, he could no longer tolerate it.

To think they would dare to strike even at his own son—if he could still tolerate this, he would not be Li Chengfeng!

Li Chengfeng understood very clearly why the Xie Family had targeted Li Xiaoyao, and the main reason for it. It was nothing more than the fact that Li Xiaoyao’s existence was affecting the status of Xie Nan’s son within the Li Family.

“I have seen this kid, and he indeed has an excessive talent for cultivation. If you think about his age, he’s only twenty-eight. Consider this, how far can a normal person cultivate in twenty-eight years? If I’m not mistaken, he must have met a master during these years,” said Li Yiming, “Now, what we need to do is bring this kid back to the Li Family and confirm his identity. As for other matters, there’s no hurry to discuss them later.”

When personally involved, even someone as clear-headed as Li Chengfeng might be affected by his emotions, thus preventing him from making the most objective and correct judgment.

After a few seconds of silence, Li Chengfeng said, “Li Tu, go immediately and bring him back. Uncle, notify everyone that without my orders, no one is permitted to leave the Li Family compound in the coming days. Anyone who dares to disobey will be killed!”

…

Li Tu sat on the plane to Ling City, his excitement finally subsided.

Forming a good relationship with Li Xiaoyao in advance turned out to be the most correct thing Li Tu had done in over twenty years.

At that moment, Li Xiaoyao and Cheng Yiyi were also on a plane to Jindu.

At five o’clock in the afternoon, a plane landed at Jindu International Airport.

Li Xiaoyao had not contacted Xiao Ya upon arrival and took a taxi directly to the city center from the airport.

On the way to the city center, Li Xiaoyao called Xiao Ya’s phone.

Xiao Ya was dining at the top-floor bar restaurant of the Ritz-Carlton hotel with the Tang and Zheng Families, discussing matters related to a takeover.

Suddenly receiving a call from Li Xiaoyao, Xiao Ya was somewhat surprised and said to the others, “Excuse me, I need to take a call.”

Xiao Ya stood up and walked to the side while the two men at the table exchanged glances, pulling out a pill from their chests and slipping it into Xiao Ya’s glass.

Zheng Bihui of the Zheng Family expressed concern, “Young Master Tang, doing this doesn’t seem right, does it?”

Young Master Tang replied nonchalantly, “What’s right or wrong about it? This woman is just too annoying. Isn’t it nice this way? After tonight, she will be my woman, and no one will obstruct me anymore.”

Zheng Bihui felt a vague unease and said, “But behind the Xiao Family, there is the cultivator…”

Tang interrupted him, “That cultivator, I’ve heard about so many times. If there really is a powerful cultivator behind the Xiao Family, why haven’t they shown themselves by now?”

Zheng Bihui wanted to say more, but Xiao Ya had already come back. Though her face was originally full of worry, it now beamed with a faint smile, completely transforming her aura from the inside out.

“Young Master Tang, if you’re determined to take over the Zheng Family, then you’ll be making an enemy of the Xiao Family. Please consider this carefully,” Xiao Ya said with confidence, her demeanor entirely different from before.

Zheng Bihui said nothing, only looking at Young Master Tang. The current Zheng Family, despite its vast assets, had fallen from a second-tier clan to an insignificant one without the backing of Yang Tianren. To put it crudely, the Zheng Family was like fish on a chopping board, ready to be carved up at will.

Young Master Tang ogled Xiao Ya with lecherous eyes, raised his glass with a smile, and said, “Regardless of the final result, I respect the professional spirit that President Xiao has shown during this time. Here’s to you, President Xiao.”

Xiao Ya, unsuspecting, raised her glass, lightly sipped the wine, and was about to put down the glass when Tang’s expression darkened, “President Xiao, aren’t you disrespecting me? I toast you, and I expect the glass to be drained, but you barely touched yours. Isn’t that a bit dull?”

Xiao Ya frowned slightly without a word, lifted the glass again, and downed the wine in one gulp.

…

“Go to the Ritz-Carlton,” Li Xiaoyao told the taxi driver.

“Alright.” The driver shifted gears and hit the gas, the car shooting off like an arrow from its bow all in one fluid motion.

More than twenty minutes later, the car arrived at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel.

After paying the fare, the two of them got out. Cheng Yiyi looked at the hotel in front of her and asked, “Who are we meeting?”

“Xiao Dingguo’s daughter.”

“Are you close with her?”

This question was not easy to answer. Li Xiaoyao thought for a moment, hummed softly, but did not give a specific reply.

Top floor, western restaurant.

Tang Shao smiled as he watched Xiao Ya in front of him, who seemed a bit dazed, and couldn’t help but curse silently, “Wasn’t it supposed to take effect in three seconds? It’s been damn near half an hour since she took it, and still no effect.”

For an ordinary woman, indeed, it would take effect in three seconds, but Xiao Ya had taken a bone-cleansing pill and, after being nurtured by Li Xiaoyao’s spiritual power, her body was far stronger than ordinary people. Thus, the high-concentration drug had a naturally weaker effect on her.

Unfortunately, Xiao Ya had only just entered the realm of cultivation, so the drug did have some effect on her. Now, her mind was starting to wander, and her eyelids were heavy.

“I want to be by your side~”

“I want to watch you get dressed~”

“The night wind blows~”

“Tickling my heart~ my lover~”

The ringtone of the phone rang, and Xiao Ya reached out subconsciously to grab it, the words “Hubby” quite conspicuous on the screen.

But just as she pressed the answer button, a wave of fatigue surged over her like the sea, and she could no longer hold on, falling asleep.

“Xiao Ya, I’m here.”

“Why aren’t you talking?”

Li Xiaoyao frowned, barely able to hear light snoring from the other end of the phone.

Asleep?

Then who answered the phone?

Suddenly, a somewhat teasing male voice came from the other end, causing Li Xiaoyao’s brow to shoot up immediately.

“This drug really is weak, took nearly half an hour to put her to sleep.”

“Alright, you can go back now.”

“Tang Shao, remember Xiao Ya has a powerful cultivator backing her up.”

“Enough already, you’re such a nag. We’ll talk about the cultivator if he shows up. Tonight, I plan to have myself a good time first.”

“Huh, the phone is still connected. Hubby? Seems like it’s Xiao Ya’s boyfriend.” Tang Shao picked up the phone cheerfully and said, “Your girlfriend got drunk, I’m taking her to the hotel to rest.”

“So you’re Tang Shao?”

Taken aback, Tang Shao gave an acknowledging hum and asked, “Do you know me?”

“From now on, you have one minute to get your affairs in order. After one minute, I’m going to kill you.”
