"Ding——!"

Ye Beichen had just sat down when Zhou Ruoyu brought over a bowl of mung bean soup.

He had only taken a few sips when his phone received a text message.

"Northern Suburb Water Plant?"

Ye Beichen looked at the strange four words, feeling a bit puzzled.

It was from an unknown number. Was someone playing a prank?

He furrowed his brow slightly and dialed back casually.

"Beep beep beep——!" Yu Youwei lay on the ground, her phone three meters away.

She struggled to get up, trying to reach for her phone.

"Crack!"

Yagyu Ichito jumped down from the roof, crushing Yu Youwei's phone with one foot, and ordered, "Withdraw immediately, this place has been exposed."

Yu Youwei felt a sharp pain at the back of her head.

She passed out!

"No answer?" Ye Beichen frowned.

He dialed again, but it showed that the number was out of service.

Ye Beichen felt something was off.

At this moment, a man from the Ye family approached.

Ye Beichen recognized him as a Martial Grandmaster named Shen He.

He was arranged by the Tenth Senior Sister to protect everyone at the Ye Mansion.

"Young Master Ye, fifteen minutes ago, someone broke into the house," Shen He reported respectfully.

Ye Beichen asked, "Who was it?"

"Three Island Ninjas. Knowing they couldn't escape, they all committed suicide by poison," Shen He replied.

Ye Beichen stood up abruptly, sensing something was wrong.

He had only been back for a few days, and his phone number was newly registered.

Not many people knew this number!

Tenth Senior Sister, Zhou Ruoyu's family, Xia Ruoxue, Yu Youwei.

Zhou Ruoyu was right beside him, and it was impossible for the Tenth Senior Sister to send him such a message!

Was it Yu Youwei?

Could she have discovered something?

Or was it Xia Ruoxue?

Impossible! Why would she ask me to go to the Northern Suburb Water Plant?

Ye Beichen was puzzled. He took out his phone and dialed Xia Ruoxue's number, but it couldn't connect, also indicating it was out of service.

Xia Ruoxue was in Jinling, how could she be out of service?

At this moment, a servant hurriedly ran in, whispered a few words to Shen He, and handed him a tablet.

Shen He glanced at it, then quickly ran to Ye Beichen: "Young Master Ye, half an hour ago, the sentries outside saw Island Nation people abduct two girls from outside the café across the street. They've retrieved the surveillance footage, would you like to see it?"

"Let me see!" Ye Beichen said quickly.

Shen He handed over the tablet.

Ye Beichen took one look and his face immediately darkened.

"Ruoxue, Sun Qian! What are they doing in Southern Jiang?"

Ye Beichen felt something was amiss: "Let's go! To the Northern Suburb Water Plant!"

Shen He shouted, "Prepare a car for Young Master Ye!"

Ye Beichen rushed to the Northern Suburb Water Plant as fast as he could.

In a bush, he found a car.

He broke open the car door and saw some girls' belongings inside.

But he couldn't tell who had left them!

"Search the area!"

Shen He ordered, and his subordinates scattered like ants.

Soon, all the subordinates returned: "Young Master Ye, we found signs of a struggle!"

"In the factory ahead, there are also four Island Ninjas' bodies."

Ye Beichen entered the factory and indeed saw the bodies of four ninjas.

"Shot through the heart?"

Ye Beichen looked at the wounds, quite surprised.

"Young Master Ye, we found some arrows," Shen He approached, holding seven or eight steel arrowheads.

"Yu Youwei's arrows? How did she get involved in this?" Ye Beichen was increasingly puzzled. "Keep searching, see if there are any other clues!"

"Yes!"

Shen He ordered a thorough search, but unfortunately, they found nothing.

Only some traces led from the abandoned water plant all the way to the riverbank, where they completely disappeared.

"They went across the river!" Ye Beichen pointed to the vast river.

Shen He looked at the surging river and said, "That side is... Northern Jiang!"

Ye Beichen's voice deepened: "Let's go, to Northern Jiang."

Shen He quickly said, "Young Master Ye, Southern Jiang and Northern Jiang are divided by the river!"

"Southern Jiang is known for its culture, Northern Jiang for its martial prowess!"

"Although the King of Southern Jiang commands three hundred thousand Imperial Guards, they're just for show! Northern Jiang is the real hidden dragon and crouching tiger, with the Southeastern Province Martial Arts Association headquarters over there. Northern Jiang's economy may not be strong, but its martial arts strength is formidable, with at least a dozen Martial Grandmasters. If the Island Nation people went to Northern Jiang, it could be troublesome!"

Ye Beichen shook his head: "No matter how troublesome, we're going to Northern Jiang!"

"Yes."

Seeing Ye Beichen's insistence, Shen He didn't argue further.

They drove across the bridge, and Ye Beichen arrived in Northern Jiang.

Shen He answered a call and then said, "Young Master Ye, we have information."

"Speak," Ye Beichen nodded.

Shen He said gravely, "Fifteen minutes ago, a group of Island Nation people entered an Island Private Club in Northern Jiang."

"Let's go! To the Island Private Club," Ye Beichen said directly.

Shen He explained, "Young Master Ye, this Island Private Club has shares owned by the Southeastern Province Martial Arts Association Vice President. Are you sure?"

"I don't care whose shares they are, even if it's the King of Northern Jiang or War God Lingfeng, we're going!" Ye Beichen's face was cold.

"Yes!"

Shen He didn't dare delay.

He tentatively asked, "Should we inform the young lady?"

"No need to trouble my Tenth Senior Sister," Ye Beichen shook his head, refusing.

The car sped quickly to the entrance of the Island Private Club.

Blissful Hot Spring!

A club run by Island Nation people, featuring hot spring spas.

And various specialty services of the Island Nation!

Not only in Northern Jiang, but even in Southern Jiang, Eastern Jiang, Jinling, and Zhonghai, wealthy people came to spend money.

After getting out of the car, Shen He reported, "Young Master Ye, the latest news is that three girls were taken into the Blissful Hot Spring."

"Let's go!"

Ye Beichen didn't waste a moment, heading straight for the Blissful Hot Spring.

"Sir, this is a private club. If you don't have a reservation, please stop here," an Eastern Man blocked the aggressive Ye Beichen and his group.

Swish swish swish!

From inside the Blissful Hot Spring, more than a dozen Eastern Sumo Wrestlers came out.

They were covered in fat, with black tattoos, looking fierce and menacing.

Ye Beichen ignored the man and walked straight into the Blissful Hot Spring.

"Stop! Sir, this is as far as you go."

"If you go any further, it will be impolite," the Eastern Man's face darkened, carrying a chill.

"Slap!"

As Ye Beichen passed by him, he slapped him to the ground.

"Bakayaro!"

The Eastern Sumo Wrestlers saw this and their fat bodies surged as they charged at Ye Beichen.

"Bang——!"

Ye Beichen threw a punch, and the sumo wrestler at the front, who looked like a pig, had his heart stop from the blow.

He fell to the ground, dead!

"Hiss!"

"You..."

The Eastern Sumo Wrestlers gasped, looking at Ye Beichen in terror.

This was a 250-kilogram heavyweight in their sumo world!

Yet he was killed with one punch?

How terrifying was the strength of this young man from the Dragon Nation!

Ye Beichen, unrestrained, took them down one by one, coldly saying:

"Bring out your person in charge to see me, or I'll kill every Island Nation person I see here!"

"Bakayaro, Dragon Nation man, this is our Island Nation territory, you dare..."

Ye Beichen took a quick step forward, kicking the man to the ground.

"Poof!"

He stomped down heavily.

The man's head burst like a watermelon.

He didn't even have the chance to finish his sentence.

Ye Beichen, like a grim reaper, walked with his hands behind his back.

The Blissful Hot Spring was in turmoil, many people were alarmed and rushed out.

Only to see Ye Beichen, like a harbinger of death!
