Qin Shimeng's arrival was immediately assertive, shattering the equilibrium they had maintained with just a few words.
Ye Zhengchun was very unwilling to save face for her, but as the family head of Zhenwu Qin family, he dared not offend her. To put it bluntly, let alone this woman who was only at the Dao realm, he would even be wary of a dog.
There was no need to doubt her authenticity; after all, no one had dared to doubt her. Impersonating the family head of Zhenwu Qin family was no different from seeking death.
After Honglian Yaonü and Ye Longlin landed, Ye Longlin narrowed his eyes. This woman looked so familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn't recall where.
It seemed to have appeared in his memory, and he had a deep impression of her, yet he truly couldn't remember where he had seen her. However, he was certain that he had seen her before.
"Family head of Zhenwu Qin family, Qin Shimeng, I've heard a lot about you."
Ye Longlin offered a smile and said.
Qin Shimeng turned her head and gave him a kind smile. "You should call me... Aunt Qin."
Ye Longlin's smile froze on his face. He had no idea where this title came from. Although he should have seen her, his memory was not extensive now; he must have seen her as a child.
"Hmph! Just a shameless woman!"
Ye Zhengchun snorted coldly, very displeased. If it weren't for the power of the Zhenwu Qin family far surpassing theirs, as a dignified Saint realm expert, how could he possibly obey a mere young woman?
"Slap!"
An unforeseen event occurred.
Qin Shimeng slapped Ye Zhengchun across the face, her eyes filled with fierce anger, her gaze icy, and an aura of indifference radiating from her entire being.
"Next time, it will be your head."
Ye Zhengchun: "..."
As a dignified Saint realm expert, he was slapped across the face like this!
The crucial point was that Ye Zhengchun could not say anything!
Admittedly, he could kill her now, but the consequences of doing so were something he could not bear.
The Qin family were a bunch of lunatics. They had tried this before, and the cost of failure was immense. With the current capabilities of the Ye family, they dared not provoke the Qin family.
The current Ye family was no longer the Ye family of the reclusive families.
Seeing this, Ye Longlin couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Ye Zhengchun was, after all, a Saint realm expert, yet he was slapped by Qin Shimeng and dared not resist, not even daring to say a word. This... it seemed that what the Zhenwu Qin family represented was beyond his expectations. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"Hehehe, the old man has lost all his face, being slapped in public. Tsk tsk, the dignity of a Saint realm expert is utterly ruined on you. I'm even wondering if I should retreat back to the Dao realm."
Honglian Yaonü burst into laughter. She was the type to stir up trouble and never be bored.
As she spoke, Honglian Yaonü gently squeezed Ye Longlin's hand, and a USB drive from her sleeve instantly landed in Ye Longlin's palm.
"I won't linger here with you all. Once your people arrive, I won't be able to leave. Little Brother Ye, I hope to see you in bed next time."
Ye Longlin's forehead was covered in black lines, but his left hand was already clenched into a fist and placed in his pocket.
It seemed Honglian Yaonü's appearance this time was not a coincidence.
As Honglian Yaonü left, cars began to pull over to the roadside.
The people in front and behind the convoy quickly alighted, sealed off the entire scene, and then someone went to open the door of the middle car.
The Great Elder hurried down, surveyed the surroundings, and finally his gaze fell upon Ye Longlin. With a complex expression, he asked, "You've reached the Saint realm?"
Ye Longlin nodded.
"Let's talk in another place. This matter ends here today."
...
Soon, several people went directly to the Zhenwu Division headquarters building.
The Zhenwu Division headquarters building was actually an office building. Perhaps no one would have expected the Zhenwu Division to be in such an open and aboveboard location.
Qin Shimeng and her group directly went to her office, took their seats, and then began to make tea.
"There is a treaty between the country and Saint realm experts, do you know about it?"
The Great Elder spoke directly, without any preamble.
Ye Longlin shook his head. He really didn't know, but he had basically guessed it. After all, in the end, Saint realm experts were already at the peak. If they were allowed to fight or act as they pleased, Great Xia would not be able to withstand their turmoil.
"This is the treaty that governs Saint realm experts, take a look."
"After learning that you had reached the Saint realm, I rushed here immediately, fearing that your fighting would affect ordinary people and it would be difficult to explain to the public."
The Great Elder handed him a document. Ye Longlin basically didn't even look at it and directly signed his name.
This greatly surprised the Great Elder. He had originally thought Ye Longlin would ask some questions, but he didn't expect him to sign it without even looking.
"Then do you think I need to look at it?"
Ye Longlin's counter-question made the Great Elder sigh. If everyone had Ye Longlin's awareness, would they still fear that Great Xia would not be able to rise?
Unfortunately, not everyone was Ye Longlin, nor did everyone possess such profound patriotism and sense of national duty.
"The events of tonight have not yet concluded. Yuan Gang is still in prison, and I must return."
Ye Longlin reminded him, lowering his head, fiddling with the ring in his hand, and then he took the ring off.
"Dragon Ring, returning it to you."
The Great Elder looked at Ye Longlin, his mouth agape, at a loss for words for a moment. He sighed deeply, his eyes filled with a sense of desolation. He already understood the meaning behind Ye Longlin returning the Dragon Ring, and he also understood Ye Longlin's thoughts, but what could he do?
"Alas."
The Great Elder left with only a sigh, his back appearing so lonely, so desolate.
This meant that his relationship with Great Xia was now just an ordinary one.
With the Dragon Ring in hand, they could be sure that Ye Longlin would return, as this item came from the Hall of Honor. Now that the last layer of connection was gone, whether he would return in the future was another matter.
This also meant that this was his last intervention.
"You did very well. I also can't stand those people. This incident this time is truly disheartening. If I were you, I might not have been able to achieve this level of composure and restraint."
Qin Shimeng couldn't help but praise his broad perspective. If it were her, she certainly wouldn't have reached such a point of acting with utmost benevolence.
"You said earlier that I should call you Aunt Qin. Do you have any relationship with my father?"
