"Based on the information the master has gathered over the past few years in the Yama Hall, there are three possible identities for this old K..." Cai Jiayu said.

"Are you kidding me?" Ye Tianfan narrowed his sharp eyes upon hearing this answer, looked at Cai Jiayu standing opposite him, curled his lips into a cold smile, and said, "It seems you're stalling for time, so say goodbye to this world!"

"No, no, no, Young Master Ye, although the master holds the high position of Judge in Yama Hall, he was forced to join halfway through, so Yama Hall hasn't shared important information with him. These three possibilities are deduced from intelligence he painstakingly obtained, risking his life," Cai Jiayu said hastily.

Hearing this, Ye Tianfan squinted his eyes without speaking, just staring at Cai Jiayu.

Cai Jiayu continued, "The first possibility is that old K is the mastermind controlling Yama Hall from behind. The intelligence the master found shows that several major operations of Yama Hall are all related to old K, so this is the master's first deduction."

"The second possibility is that old K is one of the hidden Yamas of Yama Hall. This is deduced by the master from the tone of several Yamas in Yama Hall. When they mentioned old K, there was no great respect, but rather a faint disdain."

"The third possibility is that Yama Hall is one of the forces under old K. The master said this is a more likely scenario, and Yama Hall desperately wants to break away from old K, but for some reason, they haven't been able to do so."

"This is one piece of sincerity the master asked me to bring," Cai Jiayu finished speaking with sweat streaming down his face, feeling relieved that he'd finally completed the mission entrusted by the master. Completed? Probably.

Thinking this, Cai Jiayu hurriedly looked up at Ye Tianfan's expression, trying to gauge what Ye Tianfan was thinking.

However, to his disappointment, Ye Tianfan displayed no emotion after listening.

Ye Tianfan did not speak, and neither did Cai Jiayu and the others, making the atmosphere awkwardly tense.

"I want to meet the Thousand-Faced Judge. Have him come find me, and then we can talk about cooperation," Ye Tianfan said after a moment of silence. After speaking, he picked up Qin Ruomeng and left the ward.

While protecting Qin Ruomeng earlier, Ye Tianfan used his mysterious energy to check her body, finding she was simply fast asleep, deeply asleep.

"Phew, I survived. Cough, cough!" After Ye Tianfan left, Cai Jiayu breathed a sigh of relief, unable to suppress the wound in his chest any longer, and collapsed to the ground, coughing.

The hidden assassination ghost soldiers stood coldly like robots, without glancing at Cai Jiayu.

"You guys, help me up, I need to go back for healing."

Upon receiving Cai Jiayu's command, the assassination ghost soldiers moved, helped Cai Jiayu up, and quickly left.

By the time Ye Tianfan brought Qin Ruomeng home, dawn was breaking.

Ye Tianfan carefully laid Qin Ruomeng onto the bed in another room, since the windows in the original room were shattered, making it well-ventilated but uninhabitable, and then asked Aunt Wu to cook some porridge to feed Qin Ruomeng when she woke up.

Ye Tianfan gently stroked Qin Ruomeng's face, covered her with a quilt, and planned to tidy up the other room. Suddenly, he remembered how Aunt Wu had barged in during the confrontation with the fake Qin Ruomeng, and despite his murderous aura, she had no reaction.

Thinking this, Ye Tianfan squinted his eyes, intending to ask Aunt Wu who exactly she was, but then smiled. Even if Aunt Wu wasn't an ordinary person, she had been taking care of Qin Ruomeng's daily needs for five or six years. If she had any ill intentions, she would have acted long ago; what's waiting a few more days?

Ye Tianfan shook his head, instructed Aunt Wu before leaving, and headed towards the bar.

Soon, Ye Tianfan arrived at the bar; it was almost dawn, and only a few people were there, as the bar's peak was around midnight, not daytime.

Ye Tianfan walked towards the bar counter. The bartender standing behind the counter saw Ye Tianfan approaching quickly, and his face showed a trace of unnaturalness as he asked flatteringly, "Boss, what... what do you want to drink?"

"No, where's Fei Shuang?" Ye Tianfan frowned. He felt that the bartender's movements became stiff when he sat there.

Upon hearing the name Fei Shuang, the bartender's actions grew even stiffer as he looked towards the second floor in fear and said, "Upstairs, and brought someone."

"Hmm! Okay!" Ye Tianfan hummed, then turned and walked upstairs.

"Phew. Finally left," the bartender muttered in relief upon seeing Ye Tianfan leave the bar counter. He looked fearfully upstairs, shivered, and thought of resigning. But he knew, if he resigned, he might die, for he knew secrets he shouldn't.

On the second floor of the bar, Ye Tianfan lay on the sofa while Yan Feishuang worriedly watched him from the side.

"You look exhausted again. What happened?" Yan Feishuang poured Ye Tianfan a glass of water.

"It's tiring; too many things are happening lately."

Ye Tianfan accepted the glass, frowning as he didn't want to discuss the topic with Yan Feishuang, not wanting her to know about the Thousand-Faced Judge until he met him face to face.

"Seems I need to help you relax," Yan Feishuang said softly, sitting gently on Ye Tianfan's lap and began massaging his shoulders.

"Ah! That's nice!" Ye Tianfan did not refuse Yan Feishuang's massage, indeed needing some relaxation.

Gradually, Ye Tianfan fell asleep in comfort, exhausted by recent events.

As Ye Tianfan slept, a faint smile appeared on Yan Feishuang's lips. She too lay down beside him, embracing him.

When Ye Tianfan awoke again, it was under the glaring sun.

Just as Ye Tianfan woke up, his phone rang.

Originally wanting to stay lazy in bed for a while, Ye Tianfan saw the caller was Ji Liancheng, and immediately answered.

He knew that, under usual circumstances, Ji Liancheng would not call unless there was something particular.

"Hello! What's up?"

"Young Master Ye, a new power has entered the business world today, currently evenly matched with the Tianyu Group, and they're willing to fund our Qin Group generously."

"Hmm?"
