Ye Guichen naturally didn't know that he was misunderstood by Chu Tiange.

If he did, he would probably vomit blood on the spot.

He didn't like men at all, he was only interested in women, alright?

But now, Ye Guichen had no mind to think about those messy things. He had already decided to go to the Zhou family again tomorrow.

Zhou Haijun wanted to kill him, so he wanted to see how many guts he had.

On the other side, after Zhou Haijun fled in embarrassment, he didn't return to the Zhou family but went straight to a small hotel.

Taking advantage of no one noticing, Zhou Haijun sneaked into a room in the hotel.

"Dr. Gu, Dr. Gu, I'm injured, quickly help me bandage this," Zhou Haijun shouted desperately towards the direction of the bedroom as he entered the room, covered in blood.

This hotel was located in a remote area with few people around usually. It was where Dr. Gufang stayed after returning to the country.

While speaking, Zhou Haijun had already fallen heavily to the ground.

If it were an ordinary person, they would have bled to death by now.

Zhou Haijun had some skills, but he was now also at the end of his rope. Even an ordinary person could easily kill him now.

After a while, a man walked out of the inner room of the bedroom; it was Gufang.

Gufang, wearing pajamas and glasses, was initially stunned upon seeing Zhou Haijun covered in blood, but then his brows furrowed as if nothing had happened: "Haijun, what happened to you?"

"I, I didn't expect that Ye Guichen kid to be so powerful. Tonight, I tried to kill him, but he cut off one of my arms." Zhou Haijun panted heavily: "Quick, Dr. Gu, help me bandage it, damn it, I must avenge this lost arm!"

However, upon hearing Zhou Haijun's words, Gufang didn't move. Instead, he sneered: "Zhou Haijun, from what you said, it seems you are no match for that Ye kid and failed?"

"I..." Zhou Haijun wanted to explain but suddenly noticed something wrong with Gufang's tone. He looked at Gufang in confusion: "Dr. Gu, what do you mean?"

"He doesn't mean anything. I thought you had some skill, but now it seems you're just a useless waste." To Zhou Haijun's surprise, a familiar female voice resounded from behind Gufang.

Not long after, Lin Fengjiao came out, wearing only a bath towel.

Seeing Lin Fengjiao, Zhou Haijun was stunned, not understanding why his wife was here.

It was already the middle of the night.

When Zhou Haijun left home, Lin Fengjiao was still in the Zhou family.

"Fengjiao, why are you here at Dr. Gu's place?" Zhou Haijun was completely bewildered, his eyes flashing with suspicion.

Lin Fengjiao smiled coquettishly, gently playing with her hair, and mocked: "Zhou Haijun, you really are a brute. I asked you to kill someone, and you actually went to kill. But now, you couldn't even kill anyone and lost an arm. You're not just a brute, but a complete waste!"

"Fengjiao, what do you mean?" Zhou Haijun, already very weak, found it even harder to breathe upon hearing Lin Fengjiao's words.

Gufang smiled and said: "It doesn't mean much actually, Zhou Haijun, in fact, Fengjiao and I have been together for a long time."

As he spoke, Gufang shamelessly wrapped his arm around Lin Fengjiao's waist.

"Pff!" Zhou Haijun spat out a mouthful of blood, staggered, and stood up, eyes almost spitting fire: "Lin Fengjiao, tell me, what's going on? Are you two together? You and Dr. Gu are together? Tell me, what is this all about?"

At this moment, Zhou Haijun felt like his whole world was falling apart.

He couldn't accept any of this.

To him, Gufang was both a mentor and a friend.

His skills were honed under Gufang's guidance.

So Zhou Haijun trusted Gufang implicitly, even worshipped him to some extent.

For this reason, when Zhou Weijun wanted Ye Guichen to treat Zhou Huairen, Zhou Haijun wouldn't let Ye Guichen in. He believed that if Gufang couldn't cure him, no one else could.

Lin Fengjiao looked at Zhou Haijun like he was an idiot, giggling: "Haijun, you are really interesting! Don't you see what's going on now? Do you remember how you met Gufang in the first place?"

"What do you mean?" Zhou Haijun certainly remembered how he met Gufang. He had known Lin Fengjiao first, and later she introduced Gufang to him.

Then Gufang demonstrated various incredible techniques to Zhou Haijun, even using insects to cure illnesses, making Zhou Haijun respect him immensely.

Gufang looked at Zhou Haijun, unable to accept all this, and looked at him disdainfully: "Haijun, I thought if you could kill Ye Guichen tonight, you could live a few more days. But it seems you are truly useless. Since you can't kill Ye Guichen, that kid clearly knows something. Ha ha, now we have to act ahead of time."

"What do you mean?" Zhou Haijun asked blankly: "What action?"

"Aye, Zhou Haijun, you won't admit you are stupid. This time we came back not just to auction that Seven-colored Lotus Jade." Lin Fengjiao mocked as she looked at Zhou Haijun: "Over the years, although we've smuggled many antiques, we don't have much money. When we found out your adoptive father Zhou Huairen owned Wannian Chang, you became our bargaining chip. This time we came back not just to seize control of Wannian Chang, but also to use its name to participate in the antique assembly."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Haijun's whole body began to tremble.

Although he couldn't fully understand Lin Fengjiao's words, he realized he was involved in a huge conspiracy.

"Ha ha, Zhou Haijun, have you heard of the Grave-robbing Duo from years ago?" Lin Fengjiao seemed to have no intention of hiding anymore, and spoke calmly.

"The Grave-robbing Duo?" Zhou Haijun nodded: "I've heard of them."

Of course, he had heard of them. The Grave-robbing Duo were two notorious antique thieves from the four major tomb-robbing sects from years ago. They were extremely rampant in Hua Country, almost wherever there were antiques, there they would be. The more precious the antique, the harder it was to escape their grasp.

However, later on, the Grave-robbing Duo offended someone and fled abroad, quickly disappearing from the scene.

For over a decade, the two had never resurfaced.

"You, you two wouldn't be..." Zhou Haijun looked at Lin Fengjiao and Gufang in shock.

"Ha ha, you finally understand." Gufang laughed: "Exactly, we are the Grave-robbing Duo, only we are a male and a female, not both males. We have been hiding abroad for years. Now, almost no one in the country remembers us, which means it's time for us to make a grand return."

"Pff!" Another mouthful of blood spurted out, Zhou Haijun trembled as he said: "So from the beginning, you were plotting against me?"

"Zhou Haijun, we thought you could be useful for a while longer, but now it seems you are utterly useless." Lin Fengjiao walked slowly to Zhou Haijun: "Since that Ye Guichen kid could injure you this badly, he must be tough to handle. So tonight, we have to act. Ha ha, we must not only kill you but also kill everyone in the Zhou family and seize control of Wannian Chang. By then, who will know who we are? Oh, I forgot to tell you. Our Lao Gu knows a dark art, so don't worry, it won't be too painful."

With that, Lin Fengjiao smiled and stepped aside.

Gufang walked to Zhou Haijun sinisterly, opening his hand to reveal a bug.

The bug was as big as a thumb, crimson all over, unidentifiable by its species, but exuding an aura of terror.

"What, what are you doing?" Zhou Haijun's pupils contracted, instinctively retreating.

He knew he was no match for Gufang and realized Gufang wouldn't let him live after revealing everything.

But before he could turn around, Gufang grabbed his jaw and shoved the bug into Zhou Haijun's mouth.
