In the surveillance video, a trembling, elderly man hunched over.

His face was covered in many, dense wrinkles.

This old man was none other than Uncle Yu from Jingshui Villa.

Yang Fei did not dare to be disrespectful, so he hurriedly went downstairs and opened the front door.

As soon as Uncle Yu saw Yang Fei, a sharp glint flashed through his bleary eyes.

He nodded in approval.

"Not bad, not bad, you have finally taken another step forward in your Martial Arts Realm in the past three months; you are now a top-notch expert."

Yang Fei said he didn't dare to assume so and invited Uncle Yu inside.

But Uncle Yu did not enter.

He squinted, smiling slightly.

"Young Master Ming Tai asked me to inform Young Master Yang, tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, we will meet at Pengwan Wharf."

"We'll head out to sea together."

As he spoke, he took out a purple-gold invitation and handed it to Yang Fei with respectful formality.

"The ring match between you and Golden Buddha was initiated in the young master's name."

"You will need this invitation to board the ship, oh, and how many followers does the young master wish to bring?"

Yang Fei thought for a moment and said, "Two followers, please trouble Uncle Yu to arrange it."

He, Fan Yi, and Mad Blade had all been comrades in life and death.

Obviously, the decisive battle against Golden Buddha would be faced together by the three of them.

Uncle Yu nodded slightly.

"I've noted that. Then, the day after tomorrow at eight o'clock, we'll meet at Pengwan Wharf. I take my leave."

After seeing off Uncle Yu, Yang Fei called Mad Blade and Fan Yi to inform them about the duel.

Mad Blade was immediately thrilled; even over the phone, his eagerness was palpable.

"Great, we can finally teach that old turtle Golden Buddha a lesson."

Fan Yi's reaction was just a soft hum of acknowledgment.

Yang Fei then requested time off from Chen Ke.

Chen Ke was very dissatisfied with Yang Fei's lack of commitment to work.

"You're asking for leave after less than a week on the job, what's going on?"

Yang Fei made a sour face, his voice filled with helplessness.

"My folks have arranged a matchmaking appointment and want me to go back—do you think I'm willing?"

Chen Ke couldn't help but laugh at his remark.

"Thank heaven, hopefully, the Big Boss up there will send a tigress to quickly tame this 'monster.'"

Yang Fei chuckled and said, "Chief, I'm going on a blind date, shouldn't you be crying, throwing a tantrum, or hanging yourself in protest?"

"I know you're eating your heart out in jealousy, don't hold it in; I can take it."

"Get lost!"

…

After making the calls, Yang Fei saw Xiao Xuanya approaching, her movement graceful and lithe.

Her face was etched with deep concern.

"Has the day for your duel with Golden Buddha arrived?"

She wore an ivory-white trench coat, and her jeans outlined her long, slender legs elegantly.

The large area across her chest prominently pushed out her light purple lace T-shirt.

Beyond that, the rimless glasses on her face added a rich scholarly atmosphere to her allure.

Who would have thought that such a sultry and beautiful university professor would also be a feared assassin in the Underworld?

Out of the four women at Longyuan Villa, only Xiao Xuanya knew about Yang Fei's duel with Golden Buddha.

After all, Xiao Xuanya herself was a person of the Underworld.

And the showdown between Yang Fei and Golden Buddha had nearly caused a sensation throughout the entire Shan Province Underground World.

Yang Fei nodded, avoiding her concerned gaze.

"When I'm gone, I leave the personal safety of the three women in the villa in your hands."

Upon hearing Yang Fei's words, Xiao Xuanya was immediately a mix of shock and delight.

"Brother Fei, do you really trust me?"

Yang Fei nodded, "I trust my master, and I trust you too."

Xiao Xuanya's eyes immediately reddened, and she nodded repeatedly.

These past days, Yang Fei had been deliberately avoiding Xiao Xuanya.

But today, upon speaking with her, he had entrusted the safety of Lin Xueyi and the others to her.

Xiao Xuanya knew very well Lin Xueyi's place in Yang Fei's heart.

The fact that Yang Fei had entrusted Lin Xueyi's safety to her meant one thing:

Yang Fei had accepted her presence in his heart.

Xiao Xuanya was filled with a mix of surprise and delight at the thought.

The next day, the long-awaited day of the decisive battle finally arrived.

Early in the morning, Yang Fei, Mad Blade, and Fan Yi arrived at Pengwan Wharf.

Pengwan Wharf was chilly and overcast.

The rolling waves crashing ashore were a dazzling sight.

From a distance, one could see Xue Mingtai clad in a white suit and draped in a mink fur cloak, standing against the wind.

The sea breeze howled, whipping up his cloak.

However, Xue Mingtai's face remained forever calm and composed, impervious to honor or disgrace.

Behind Xue Mingtai, the elderly butler Uncle Yu was bending over in attendance.

Yang Fei noticed that on the butler's back was a longsword with a deep black scabbard and a handle inlaid with a large cat's eye gem, lustrous and translucent.

The young girl Ye Zi snuggled up beside Xue Mingtai.

In her arms, she held a pure white kitten.

Xue Mingtai personally came forward to greet them.

As soon as he caught sight of Yang Fei, he nodded his head in satisfaction.

"These three months, you have not wasted any time," he said.

"Uncle Yu is right, your Martial Arts Realm has indeed entered the ranks of first-class experts," Xue Mingtai observed.

Yang Fei chuckled and introduced Fan Yi and Mad Blade to Xue Mingtai.

Xue Mingtai nodded to the two men and reached out to shake hands with Fan Yi and Mad Blade.

"Let's get on the ship first, we can talk about everything else on board," Xue Mingtai said indifferently, leading the way to the yacht.

Xue Mingtai's yacht was extremely majestic, spanning three levels.

The top was the deck.

The middle level comprised various lounges, a bar, gym, KTV, and a massage relaxation center.

The lowest level housed the rooms for the sailors and crew, as well as the storerooms.

Xue Mingtai did not engage in much conversation with Yang Fei.

He ordered Uncle Yu to prepare a quiet rest room for Yang Fei to conserve energy and adjust his state.

Mad Blade excitedly dragged Fan Yi off to the massage relaxation center.

This fellow had an almost fanatical affection for women.

However, naturally, there were no unclean women aboard Xue Mingtai's yacht.

The masseuses were all beauties.

But these beautiful women only provided professional massage services and not any other services.

It is worth mentioning that the yacht's beautiful masseuses had skilled and practiced techniques, worthy of any man's enjoyment.

Alone in his room, Yang Fei sat in silence, calm and collected.

Xue Mingtai also had Uncle Yu bring over some Dragon's Breath incense to be lit in a bronze incense burner.

Dragon's Breath incense was exceedingly expensive.

But for Martial Artists, it had an extraordinary effect.

It could focus the mind, calm the spirit, and aid in cultivating qi.

The yacht began to move, slowly sailing into the deep sea.

Two hours later, the yacht had left Huaxia's territorial waters.

After another half-hour of sailing, they reached international waters.

The yacht anchored at the pre-arranged coordinates and stopped.

By now, it was approaching midday, the sun was blazing overhead, and the vast ocean merged with the sky.

In less than twenty minutes, a luxurious and imposing yacht appeared in the distance.

The vessel, both lavish and large, gradually approached Xue Mingtai's yacht.

Xue Mingtai let out a long cry, saying aloud, "Is that Master Jin's boat?"

He did not amplify his voice deliberately.

Yet this calm voice echoed loudly within a two-mile radius.

Mad Blade and Fan Yi stood on the deck with Mad Blade secretly shocked.

"No wonder Xue Mingtai dares to meddle in the affairs of the Golden Buddha; his Martial Arts indeed are unfathomable."

From the approaching yacht, someone responded loudly.

The voice was compassionate and robust—it was indeed the Golden Buddha.

Xue Mingtai turned around and gave a nod to Fan Yi and Mad Blade.

"The Golden Buddha has arrived, please ask Yang Fei to come up on deck," he instructed.
