In a five-star hotel, inside a luxurious suite.

An elder sat on the sofa, expressionless, holding a cup of tea, sipping slowly.

This elder was Elder Wan of the Heaven and Earth Sect.

Ding Yongsheng stood in the open space in front of his sofa, slightly bowing, motionless, barely daring to breathe, just like a servant.

Elder Wan leisurely finished a few sips of tea, placing the cup back on the table.

Only then did he raise his eyes to look at Ding Yongsheng, saying, "Did you tell the Jiang family about Lin Fei arriving in Jiangnan City and the students from Jiangnan University who are close to Lin Fei?"

Ding Yongsheng replied immediately, "Yes, as per your instructions, Elder Wan, I have informed the Jiang family of all this."

Elder Wan nodded. "Very good."

He led the Netherworld experts, along with Ding Yongsheng and the Shadow Experts, to chase Lin Fei from Capital City to Sichuan Province, and then from Sichuan Province to Jiangnan City.

Once they reached Jiangnan City, they lost track of Lin Fei, and even though Jiangnan City had hidden forces, they could not find any trace of Lin Fei, as if he had vanished without a trace.

However, even before Elder Wan departed Capital City, he had someone investigate everything about Lin Fei. Soon, the Hidden Kill found out about Lin Fei's connections with the five powerful families of Huadu, his brotherly ties with Qin Yunyue and others, and also his engagement with Yuan Yuxi and three other women.

It can only be said that Lin Fei was too well-known at Huadu University and Huadu, and had offended many rich young masters, so the Hidden Kill found it quite simple to gather this information.

In particular, the forces of Hidden Kill in South China, after being suppressed and controlled by the Cloud Pavilion and the three Martial Kings due to Lin Fei, were also thoroughly investigated.

And Lin Fei's actions to protect Qin Yunyue and others from the five major families by secretly moving them to Jiangnan City became Elder Wan's most useful clue today.

"Elder Wan, if there's nothing else, I will take my leave." Ding Yongsheng respectfully said.

Elder Wan nodded. "Mm, make sure your Shadow Experts keep an eye on both the Jiang and Meng families, as well as the Yang family."

"Yes, Elder Wan." Ding Yongsheng replied and left the room.

Only Elder Wan remained in the room. He picked up the teacup, sipping slowly, a chilling gleam in his eyes.

"Lin Fei, you killed my son. Even if you hide to the ends of the earth, I will find and kill you."

Elder Wan knew of the extraordinary relationship between Qin Yunyue, Xiao Ling, Yuan Yuxi, and others with Lin Fei. When they were at Jiangnan University, he devised a plan against Lin Fei.

That was to have Ding Yongsheng convey this information to the Jiang family, who would then inform the Star Moon Sect.

And have the Star Moon Sect take action. Once they attacked Qin Yunyue and the others, Lin Fei, who was in Jiangnan City, would certainly show up to save them.

This way, the Star Moon Sect and Lin Fei would surely fight each other to the death, and Elder Wan could sit back and reap the benefits.

"Lin Fei, I don't believe this time you can escape my grasp." Elder Wan's eyes flashed with killing intent, and under the force of his grip, the teacup cracked extensively.

Yang family's villa estate.

As the residence of the richest man in Jiangnan City, it sprawled over a vast area, complete with flowers, trees, swimming pools, a private garden, and a small golf course.

Numerous luxurious villas stood amidst lush greenery, with black asphalt roads winding like black satin ribbons, connecting the villas throughout the estate.

Inside one villa, in an ancient-style study.

An elegantly dressed elder in a luxurious, golden, elaborately patterned Tang suit, exuding an aura of nobility, lay on a reclining chair.

The elder, somewhat corpulent and very tall, lay with his eyes closed, seemingly resting, yet even with his eyes shut, he displayed a dignified expression, radiating a formidable presence.

Beside him, a maid gently fanned the elder with a bamboo fan.

At this moment, a stylishly dressed, young and handsome man entered the study, casting a glance at the elder, who reclined with his eyes closed.

The young man gestured for the maid to stop fanning, and she left the study, understanding his signal.

As the maid passed by him, he took the fan from her and moved next to the elder on the reclining chair, gently fanning him.

"Zhenhui, is Meng Chuan here?" Suddenly, the elder on the reclining chair spoke.

The young man immediately replied to the elder, "Yes, Grandfather, Meng Chuan is here, right outside the villa."

"Mm, let him in then." The elder kept his eyes closed.

Yet, the young man said, "Grandfather, Jiang Yifan and the two old men Fulou have also arrived, wishing to meet you."

The elder opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as lightning, captivating.

However, the elder's piercing gaze soon subdued, returned to a calm and unremarkable expression.

"Jiang Bu'er is already dead, the Jiang family is no longer what it once was. Let Meng Chuan in, and send the Jiang family people away." The elder said aloofly.

Indeed, this elder was none other than the patriarch of the Yang family, and also the Grand Elder of the Star Moon Sect, Yang Zhentan.

And the young man was his grandson, Yang Zhenhui, the premier young master of Jiangnan City.

"Grandfather, Jiang Yifan told me he has information about Lin Fei that he wants to report." Yang Zhenhui said.

Yang Zhentan's eyes lit up, looking at his grandson. "Did he really say that?"

"He indeed said so to me, Grandfather." Yang Zhenhui replied.

"Mm, bring Jiang Yifan and the two old men Fulou in first."

"What about Meng Chuan, Grandfather?"

"Let Jiang Yifan and the three come in first, let Meng Chuan wait a while.".

"Yes, Grandfather."

Although Yang Zhenhui was curious, he still followed orders and left the study.

Soon, Yang Zhenhui brought Jiang Yifan and the two old men Fulou inside.

"Junior Jiang Yifan, and Elders Fulou, pay respects to the Grand Elder of the Star Moon Sect." Jiang Yifan and the two old men Fulou respectfully addressed Yang Zhentan.

Yang Zhentan's gaze fell on Jiang Yifan, his voice stern as he said, "Jiang Yifan, is it true you have information about Lin Fei?"

Jiang Yifan replied, "Yes."

"Let's hear it." Yang Zhentan said.

Jiang Yifan, however, knelt with a thud, addressing Yang Zhentan, "Grand Elder, I can share information about Lin Fei, but I ask that the Grand Elder allow the Jiang family to stay within the Star Moon Sect's influence."

Yang Zhentan's eyes glinted coldly, "Jiang Yifan, are you trying to make a deal with me?"

"I dare not, Elder. I just wish to save the Jiang family. Our Jiang family has always had discord with the Meng family. If they become part of the Star Moon Sect's influence, they will surely annihilate us. I plead for the Grand Elder's mercy to keep the Jiang family within the Star Moon Sect." Jiang Yifan pleaded, knocking his head on the floor with each word.

Yang Zhentan remained unmoved, coldly saying, "To stay in the Star Moon Sect is possible, but I want to know if your information is worth keeping the Jiang family."

"Grand Elder, it surely is. I bring two pieces of information about Lin Fei..." Jiang Yifan then relayed everything Ding Yongsheng had told him to Yang Zhentan.
