Conquer the game world

Chapter 62 Xu Feng
Shortly after Ye Feng left, Bei Ye also arrived at the one-eyed man's residence with his men.

"Young Master, the one-eyed man inside is dead," his subordinate reported to Bei Ye.

"What?" Bei Ye entered the room in disbelief to check the situation and found that One-Eye was indeed dead inside. Bei Ye was certain that the one-eyed person was One-Eye himself, and with that one-eyed symbol, he was certain that the dead person was One-Eye.

"Who struck first? Do they not want us to know?" Bei Ye asked suspiciously.

"Young Master, when Miss came back just now, it seemed like there was a man with her," Bei Ye's subordinate suddenly whispered.

"Damn it, why didn't you say so sooner?" Bei Ye roared at his subordinate beside him, "Find out where that guy is right now."

Bei Ye was in a very bad mood because of Bei Linhan's current situation. Now that he had missed the opportunity to find One-Eyed, Bei Ye was holding his breath with nowhere to vent his anger. Poor subordinate, who thought he would be rewarded for reporting useful information, but instead was scolded.

"Actually, I've already sent someone to investigate," the subordinate beside him replied tremblingly. "This person seems to be called Ye Feng. He returned to Star Moon City with Miss today."

"Together? So, this guy knows about this too, right?" Bei Ye analyzed. "Have you found out where he is now? I'm going to see him right now."

Not long after the Bei family left, several plainly dressed ordinary men arrived at One-Eyed's residence.

"Damn it, something's happened to the boss." Seeing the one-eyed corpse, the men knew what had happened without even asking.

"Proceed as planned and spread the message the boss told us," another man said calmly.

"Yes, that's right, let's split up." After agreeing on the plan, the group hurriedly left again.

North of Xingyue City lies the Xu family's residence.

"Xu Bo, you used another 400,000 purple gold coins today. What did you do with them?" A middle-aged man was asking Xu Bo in the lobby.

This middle-aged man is Xu Feng, the head of the Xu family.

"Dad, well, I just want to buy some things," Xu Bo said vaguely.

"Buying things? What can't you say?" Xu Feng frowned and said, "What trouble have you gotten yourself into again? Tell me now, or you'll be in big trouble when I find out."

Xu Feng knew Xu Bo very well; he always liked to go out and cause trouble. Fortunately, these troubles weren't too big, and Xu Bo was also somewhat self-aware enough to know who he couldn't afford to offend. So, thanks to Xu Feng's protection, it wasn't a big deal.

Upon receiving news today that Xu Bo had secretly used 400,000 purple gold coins, Xu Feng immediately thought that Xu Bo must have gotten into some trouble again. However, Xu Feng didn't take it too seriously, considering it just a minor inconvenience.

"Dad, well, I've had someone take care of that Ye Feng." Xu Bo knew he couldn't hide this anymore, so he simply confessed. He'd already done it, so his father probably wouldn't be angry over some nobody who'd appeared out of nowhere.

"Ye Feng? Who is he?" Xu Feng asked in confusion. The last time he met Ye Feng, he only saw him briefly in the arena. Although he was surprised that Ye Feng had such strength at such a young age, Xu Feng did not take him seriously at all.

“It’s that guy I saw in the arena last time, the one I told you about,” Xu Bo replied.

"That guy, didn't I tell you not to mess with him?" Xu Feng said with a hint of anger in his voice. It wasn't because Xu Bo had caused trouble, but because he was dissatisfied with Xu Bo's disobedience. Although Xu Feng didn't want to provoke Ye Feng, he didn't take him seriously either.

"So I had One-Eye take care of him. I can't swallow this insult," Xu Bo said calmly from the side, his tone suggesting that killing a guy was a trivial matter.

"Since it's already done, let it go." Xu Feng didn't dwell on the matter too much. "But it should be done cleanly."

“However, asking for 400,000 purple gold coins for an unknown kid seems too high,” Xu Feng suddenly said. “Is there something you’re not saying?”

"This, this..."

"Speak!" Seeing Xu Bo's hesitant manner, Xu Feng slammed his hand on the table. The force of the blow seemed to be immense, and a nearby table was instantly smashed.

"If you don't tell me, I'll just bring One-Eye here and ask him. Then, hmph."

"Father, this really wasn't my intention. It's just that the one-eyed guy seemed to have taken advantage of Bei Linhan from the Bei family while he was doing his job." Xu Bo knew he couldn't hide this anymore, so he could only answer honestly.

"What!" Now it was Xu Feng's turn to be surprised. He originally thought that Xu Bo might cause a little trouble, but he didn't expect that he would cause such a big problem.

"Does anyone else know about Miss Bei being killed?" Xu Feng quickly calmed down from his surprise. Although Xu Bo had caused quite a bit of trouble, there was nothing he could do. After all, this guy was his only son, and he had to help him take responsibility for whatever happened.

"That one-eyed guy extorted 400,000 from me, promising to keep it a secret." Now that he'd confessed, Xu Bo was pretty much throwing caution to the wind. He was even thinking about whether he could get the 400,000 purple gold coins back. "Hmph, in this world, only the dead can keep secrets," Xu Feng said viciously. "You idiot, why didn't you tell me about something this important sooner? Do you know how serious the consequences are?" Xu Bo didn't dare to reply under Xu Feng's scolding.

"Find someone now to kill One-Eye and all his informants. We must eliminate them completely."

"Boss Xu, what's going on? How did Xu Bo offend the Bei family?" Just as Xu Feng was making his plans, a burly man stormed into the hall.

"Wu Gui, what's the rush? What happened to the Bei family?" As Wu Gui entered, Xu Feng sensed something was wrong.

"Boss Xu, it's all over the place now. They're saying that Xu Bo from the Xu family spent 500,000 purple gold coins to hire someone to kill Bei Linhan from the Bei family." The burly man said angrily. "Who dares to slander us like this? Nephew Xu, you didn't do it, did you?"

"Second Uncle, this... I made it," Xu Bo stammered.

"What's going on? Wasn't it said that One-Eyed would keep it a secret?" Xu Feng said through gritted teeth. "Damn it, we've been tricked. That guy must have taken the money and run away."

"Father, what are we going to do now? Am I doomed?" Xu Bo was starting to get scared. The Bei family's power was no less than that of the Xu family, and could even be said to be stronger. Now that he had provoked the Bei family, Xu Bo could already foresee the Bei family's crazy revenge.

"Brother Xu, what should we do? We have to find a way to protect our nephew Xu." Wu Gui was Xu Feng's sworn brother from his early years. He had watched Xu Bo grow up and had always taken good care of him.

“From now on, until things calm down, you are not allowed to step out of the Xu family’s house again.” Xu Feng said to Xu Bo, “Stay at home obediently, I will handle the rest.”

In the past, Xu Bo would have made a fuss and expressed his dissatisfaction if he were forbidden from leaving the house. This time, Xu Bo knew he had committed a serious crime and did not resist the decision. Even if Xu Feng did not confess, Xu Bo would not dare to go out, for he might be inexplicably killed on the street.

"Wu Gui, quickly send someone to the Xu family to see what their attitude is," Xu Feng instructed. "Also, contact the Zhou family; this matter is really troublesome."

"Furthermore, strengthen all defenses at the Xu residence. We must not relax our vigilance day or night to ensure Xu Bo's safety."

"Leave it to me, brother." Wu Gui agreed and went to make the arrangements.

The Xu family was in complete chaos, but Ye Feng was calmly drinking tea.

"This tea is really good," Ye Feng muttered. Ye Feng was drinking the same tea he had obtained from the Flying Dragon Merchant Guild last time. However, thinking about how his cultivation fruits had been sold for more than double the price, Ye Feng felt that this tea was really expensive.

Although he knew that it was Xu Bo from the Xu family who was behind it, Ye Feng was not in a hurry. A place like the Xu family must be heavily guarded. Even if he sneaked in, it would be bad if he caused a commotion and got surrounded. Ye Feng planned to launch another night raid on the Xu family that night.

"You must be Ye Feng." A young man appeared beside Ye Feng, with more than a dozen people standing behind him, looking menacing.

"That's me. What brings you here?"

"Oh, I'd like you to come with me. There's something I need to confirm with you," Bei Ye said calmly, trying to control her anger.

"Don't jump to conclusions before things are confirmed. This guy came back with Bei Linhan, so he's probably not the one who did the dirty work," Bei Ye told himself.

"No, I want to drink tea." Ye Feng refused without any politeness.

"Kid, our young master is being so polite to you, don't push your luck." One of Bei Ye's men stepped forward, preparing to forcibly take Ye Feng away.

This subordinate was usually a smooth talker, but when he saw Bei Ye Bei refuse, he rushed to help. In his eyes, Ye Feng was just a kid and nothing special.

However, he was wrong. Ye Feng was not as easy to bully as he imagined.

Just as he approached Ye Feng, Ye Feng moved.

A moment later, the subordinate fell to the ground, while Ye Feng remained sitting there leisurely. No one present had a clear view of how Ye Feng made his move.

"Ye Feng, are you sure you want to go against the Bei family?" Although it was his subordinate who caused trouble and was thus dealt with by Ye Feng, Bei Ye naturally had to stand up for his subordinate when he got into trouble. He stepped forward and looked at Ye Feng with the same aggressive tone, his words no longer as calm as before.

"The Bei family? You are from the Bei family." This time it was Ye Feng's turn to be surprised. There was only one major Bei family in Star Moon City. Ye Feng naturally knew who the Bei family was.

"What do the Bei family want with me?" Ye Feng asked, though he was puzzled. "Since they are from the Bei family, I'll go with you."
