"What's wrong?"
Hearing Xiao Yan's gentle voice, Ya Fei's originally anxious heart instantly calmed down a lot.
It was just a voice that was just beginning to develop its Adam's apple, speaking with a still somewhat childish tone, yet it instantly put her at ease.
Taking a deep breath, after smoothing down her chest which had almost made Lei Le's eyes pop out, she then said softly to Xiao Yan: "Well, those old folks in the family want to hand over the business in Wutan City to this guy to replace me."
"In the end, it's because the money this branch in Wutan City has made recently is truly enviable. Even many first-tier cities in the empire might not have earned as much as I have during this period."
Hearing Ya Fei's explanation, Xiao Yan nodded with some understanding.
Indeed, since his rebirth, due to his various methods being much stronger than in his previous life, the amount of money he had earned in the past six months was also an extremely large number.
And the money Ya Fei had received from her share had probably already reached a net profit of nearly a million. Such a sum of money was much greater than the benefits he had brought her in his previous life.
Looking at all the branches of the Miteer family in the entire Jia Ma Empire, probably only the Miteer headquarters in the Jia Ma Imperial Capital had such a terrifying ability to attract money.
Such a huge profit was indeed tempting.
"However, don't those fools in the Miteer family know that the reason this Wutan City branch can get such huge profits is all because of you, a capable general? By replacing you just like that, aren't they afraid that this business will collapse?"
A branch with an annual income of one million, even for a large force like the Miteer family, was probably extremely important.
"Hehe, that's precisely the reason why they sent people here this time."
With a look of disgust at Lei Le sitting opposite her, Ya Fei was about to explain when she was interrupted by the other party.
"Little kid, where did you sneak in from? How dare you say that the people of our Miteer family are fools?"
Slowly standing up, Lei Le was staring at Xiao Yan with an unfriendly expression.
Suddenly having a half-grown boy burst in and interrupt his show-off was already annoying to him. After seeing Ya Fei's attitude towards this youth was so good, he looked at Xiao Yan with even more displeasure.
Especially after seeing Xiao Yan publicly call the people of the Miteer family fools, he couldn't hold it in any longer.
The fools Xiao Yan spoke of, weren't they him and his grandfather's group of people?
Ignoring Lei Le's voice, Xiao Yan's expression remained calm. He looked at Ya Fei in front of him with composure and said softly: "Ignore him, you continue."
Seeing Xiao Yan like this, Ya Fei's heart became even more peaceful. Her pair of peach-blossom beautiful eyes stared at Xiao Yan, with a strange light faintly flickering.
"That group of people naturally couldn't replace me so openly. But they have already investigated and know that the reason I was able to rise so quickly in this Wutan City is all because I befriended an alchemist."
Speaking of which, Ya Fei's beautiful eyes suddenly lit up with a slightly excited light.
"You don't know, when I brought the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Liquid to the imperial capital some time ago, even in the imperial capital, it caused quite a stir. The price of that Foundation Establishment Spiritual Liquid was even hyped up to sixty thousand gold coins at one point. So, they naturally came to my place to poach people."
"Ya Fei, why are you discussing these things with a child? These things are about to become family secrets!"
Looking at Ya Fei who had suddenly become all smiles in front of Xiao Yan, even though he was just a youth, a flame of jealousy still surged in Lei Le's heart.
This woman had never given him such a good face in front of him.
"Go, get this brat out of here for me!"
Looking at Xiao Yan who was chatting and laughing with Ya Fei, Lei Le glanced at the burly guard beside him and then gestured for the burly man to drive Xiao Yan away.
"Lei Le, you dare!"
Hearing Lei Le's voice, Ya Fei's face instantly turned cold. Her beautiful eyes stared coldly at Lei Le. With a slap of her jade-like hand, the two guards at the door also walked in at this moment.
"Treating my friends like this on my territory, do you really think I wouldn't dare to touch you?"
"Hehe, Ya Fei, let's not talk about other things first. Just these two guards of yours are probably no match for this guard of mine. Today, I will run wild on your territory, what can you do? Woman, it's better to obediently stay in the family and be a vase."
Looking at Ya Fei's angry appearance, Lei Le felt a retaliatory pleasure in his heart.
Looking at Lei Le's appearance, Ya Fei's willow-like eyebrows first stood on end, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of her lips.
Her rosy little mouth opened slightly, and a cold voice came out.
"Believe me, if you touch him, you will definitely regret it."
"Hahaha, do you take me for a three-year-old child?"
"He's just a little kid. So what if I touch him?"
Hearing Ya Fei's warning, Lei Le burst out laughing and waved his hand, signaling the burly man to drive Xiao Yan out.
"Sigh, although cleaning up you scumbags is beneath me, why do you always have to present yourselves before me to be cleaned up?"
In this tense atmosphere, the young man's somewhat helpless voice suddenly sounded.
Xiao Yan slowly raised his head, his pair of pitch-black eyes glanced at Lei Le without a ripple, causing the latter to suddenly shiver inexplicably.
"Little brat, just playing tricks!"
Lei Le endured the feeling that suddenly made his heart uneasy. Just as he was about to tell the guard to be rougher, he saw that Xiao Yan's eyes had already met the burly guard's.
"Fall down!"
Under the astonished gazes of Ya Fei and Lei Le, Xiao Yan suddenly snapped his fingers lightly.
The next moment, the burly guard, whose cultivation had already reached the six-star Dou Shi level, suddenly let out a miserable scream. Then, his body stiffened and he fell down straight.
"Plop!"
The burly man's heavy body slammed straight onto the ground, his eyes tightly closed, as if he were dead.
But this dull sound seemed to have smashed into everyone's hearts, turning the astonishment in everyone's eyes into horror in an instant.
What on earth did this youth do? How could a single snap of his fingers make a Dou Shi expert fall down so straight?
Experts who could kill a Dou Shi were not uncommon in the Miteer family. Even experts who could kill a Dou Shi with a casual move were also numerous.
But to make a Dou Shi expert fall directly with just a snap of the fingers, such a bizarre and unfathomable powerful method, probably even the Miteer family's patriarch, that Dou Wang Teng Shan, couldn't do it.
Looking at the young man's calm face with a hint of a smile, a chill couldn't help but rise from the soles of everyone's feet.
Ignoring the terrified gazes of the crowd, Xiao Yan, with a smile on his lips, walked step by step towards the constantly retreating Lei Le.
"An idiot like you who only knows about women, even if I wanted to give you a chance to start over, it would be incredibly difficult."
As he spoke, Xiao Yan had already reached out and grabbed the other's collar.
"I'll fight you!"
His collar was grabbed. Perhaps the fear just now had truly scared him, or perhaps because he felt there was a prominent figure behind Xiao Yan and wanted to capture the leader to capture the thieves, a look of terrified ferocity appeared on Lei Le's face.
His entire body's Dou Qi suddenly erupted, the strength of a seven-star Dou Zhe fully revealed.
However, before he could use his techniques, a slender palm had already come towards him, its force so great that it directly caused his entire body's Dou Qi to dissipate.
"Pa!"
