For an entire day, Ye Xiao was engrossed in studying the 'Yang Gang's Golden Body'. Normally, when Ye Xiao encountered other cultivation techniques, he would rely on the unique inner strength of the Nine Yang Divine Skill, using them with ease without the need for serious practice. This is the special aspect of the Nine Yang Divine Skill.

Of course, the Nine Yang Divine Skill is like a Heavenly Book, so possessing such capabilities is normal. However, this time, what he is cultivating is not another cultivation technique but the sixth volume of the Nine Yang Divine Skill, which he had never seen before. Ye Xiao didn't dare to practice it casually; he meticulously understood the entire text of the 'Yang Gang's Golden Body' before beginning his practice.

Unlike the previous five volumes of the Nine Yang Divine Skill's remnants, the function of Yang Gang's Golden Body includes only a small amount of True Qi refinement; its primary focus is on the relentless strengthening of his bones and body.

After just four or five hours of cultivation, Ye Xiao felt as if his muscles were charged, becoming unusually firm, making him wonder if he would turn into a muscular man.

Until there was a knock on the door, Ye Xiao slowly finished his practice, exhaling a breath of foul air, and then walked directly to the door.

After opening the door, Wangg Yin stood outside.

"Brother Xiao!" Wangg Yin looked at Ye Xiao and said, "I found out that the base of the Linghuo Sect is not in Han City, but within the boundaries of Qiyou City."

"Qiyou City?" Ye Xiao asked, "Can you determine the exact location?"

"Not yet," Wangg Yin replied.

As they talked, Ye Xiao and Wangg Yin walked into the room and sat on the sofa, where Ye Xiao tossed a cigarette to Wangg Yin.

Wangg Yin caught it and said, "Brother Xiao, there's something I've always wanted to ask, but I'm not sure if it's appropriate."

"Go ahead," Ye Xiao said.

Wangg Yin asked, "Brother Xiao, do you really want to destroy the Linghuo Sect? After all, it's a sect, and as the head of the sect, Huo Qinglong is probably in a very difficult-to-find place, or in other words, finding Huo Qinglong might be impossible in the short term."

Ye Xiao glanced at Wangg Yin and said, "Huo Qinglong's son, Huo Wensong, is now competing with me for a woman. What do you think I should do?"

"Ah?" Wangg Yin was slightly surprised, but he quickly said, "Then Brother Xiao doesn't necessarily have to topple the Linghuo Sect, right?"

"The Linghuo Sect must be eliminated; I don't want to do something half-hearted." Ye Xiao replied.

Wangg Yin said, "Does Brother Xiao mean to kill Huo Wensong? Is that why you're investigating Huo Wensong's situation?"

"Yes." Ye Xiao smiled and asked, "Any news on Huo Wensong?"

"Zhou Hao is investigating, and I believe there should be news soon," Wangg Yin replied. "Brother Xiao, we need to be prepared for the long haul. As the son of the Linghuo Sect Master, the sect's protection over him must be considerable, and it's not going to be easy to kill him."

"I didn't say I wanted to kill him," Ye Xiao replied.

Wangg Yin was immediately puzzled and asked, "Why?"

"Do you think a eunuch needs to compete with others for a woman?" Ye Xiao looked at Wangg Yin and asked.

Wangg Yin almost didn't react immediately but then said, "So that's what Brother Xiao means. However, this seems more difficult than killing Wangg Yin. Actually, I was already investigating, but I think we should enlist some help."

"Who do you want to enlist?"

Wangg Yin said, "The people from the Cold Moon Sect could be borrowed."

Ye Xiao looked at Wangg Yin and said, "No rush. Since the Linghuo Sect's base is known, the next task is to thoroughly investigate Huo Wensong. You were right earlier; dismantling the Linghuo Sect in a short time is difficult, so let's focus on Huo Wensong. He's a prodigal son and a playful character, likely to appear in Han City frequently."

Upon hearing this, Wangg Yin understood what Ye Xiao meant and realized that Ye Xiao didn't want others involved., so he immediately nodded and said, "Yes, Brother Xiao."

"What time is it now?" Ye Xiao asked Wangg Yin.

Wangg Yin replied, "It's six fifty-six!"

"Oh, I guess it's time to eat. I didn't have lunch, and I'm actually a bit hungry," Ye Xiao said, smiling as he extinguished the remaining half of the cigarette in the ashtray.

Wangg Yin quickly responded, "Yes!"

Shengtian Hotel is a fairly well-known hotel in Han City, though it's a four-star hotel, it aspires to reach five-star standards.

Dining area!

Ye Xiao and Wangg Yin ordered a few delicious dishes and began chatting while eating.

Everything was smooth until the end when a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties, wearing a thick down jacket, walked into the dining area. After entering, he casually glanced around and then sat directly in a corner.

Strangely, this man always wore glasses and a cotton hat, seemingly unwilling to be noticed by others. Naturally, the diners had their own conversations, so no one paid attention to him, not even Ye Xiao, who was talking with Wangg Yin about the game 'StarCraft II', discussing who was more powerful, the Terrans or the Protoss.

At this time, snowflakes were falling outside. Although not heavy, wearing a down jacket was quite normal. Yet, no one noticed that this man in the down jacket had no snowflakes on him, as if no snow fell on him at all.

But within five minutes after the man entered, two men also entered the dining area. These two wore sunglasses too, but their attire was much simpler—just thin leather jackets.

After entering, the two men looked around and were about to leave when a waiter spoke to the middle-aged man, "Sir, would you like to order now?"

Only then did the two men notice the middle-aged man in the corner, and they immediately walked over to him.

The middle-aged man, seeing these two leather-jacketed men approaching, turned slightly grim and glared at the waiter before saying, "No, I'm not ordering!"

Unaware of what was happening, the waiter only sensed the man was somewhat unfriendly, so he didn't dare say more—service industry policy dictates not risking ire with a customer.

As the waiter was about to leave, the middle-aged man quickly stood up, obviously intending to go as well. However, as soon as he stood, the two leather-jacketed men moved to block his path.

At that moment, Ye Xiao, who had not noticed anything initially, finally became aware and was also somewhat curious.
