Outside the courtyard!
Tang Xinwan's face looked a little haggard. She was pacing back and forth anxiously. If it weren't for the two armed guards standing at the entrance of the courtyard, she would have really wanted to go in and see.
However, she didn't have to wait long before she saw the officer wearing glasses walk out of the courtyard, and she quickly went to greet him.
"Officer, may I see him?"
"Miss Tang, our commander has forbidden it!"
Secretary Liu shook his head with a wry smile, and then comforted her, "But Miss Tang, you don't need to worry. The commander has only confined him for three days. He should be able to leave after three days!"
"Really?"
Tang Xinwan's previously dim expression instantly lit up with joy, and she asked anxiously, "Does he really only need to be confined for three days to get out? Did he... did he kill someone?"
She knew everything that had happened last night.
That guy had actually gone to the Yuwen family to cause trouble for her, and even killed someone.
Because of this, she had barely slept all night out of worry.
Now, to be told that Ye Cangtian only needed to be confined for three days to get out, she found it somewhat unbelievable.
If it weren't for the fact that the person in front of her was a soldier, she might not have believed what he said.
"This..."
Secretary Liu didn't know how to explain this. He pondered for a moment before explaining, "Although Ye Cangtian made a mistake, he also rendered meritorious service, so his merits and demerits canceled each other out, and the commander punished him with three days of confinement."
This explanation was a bit far-fetched, but it did make sense.
After all, the mountain monster that Ye Cangtian had eliminated was a member of the Dark Association, which could indeed be considered a meritorious deed.
Although Tang Xinwan had not seen Ye Cangtian, she couldn't help but feel relieved upon learning that he would not have to go to jail.
She left the family compound and got into the car.
Murong Yu, who was sitting in the driver's seat, asked, "Did you see him?"
"No!"
Tang Xinwan explained what the young officer had told her to the other person.
Murong Yu smiled and nodded upon hearing this, "Then it should be fine. Elder Xu has a high status. The fact that he took Ye Cangtian away from the Yuwen family last night shows that Elder Xu was protecting him."
As a descendant of the Murong family, Murong Yu naturally knew much more than ordinary people.
She also knew Elder Xu's status in the Dragon Group. The reason the Yuwen family had compromised was probably out of fear of the Dragon Group.
"Dragon Group?" Tang Xinwan had never heard this term before.
"Yes, the China Dragon Group. It's the most mysterious organization in China. This organization has always been controlled by the military and is specifically responsible for tasks that ordinary soldiers cannot perform."
After Murong Yu finished explaining, she couldn't help but glance at Tang Xinwan and said, "It seems that Ye Cangtian must have joined the Dragon Group, which is why Elder Xu came forward to protect him!"
Tang Xinwan frowned slightly. She had no idea that Ye Cangtian had joined such an organization.
She hesitated and asked, "After joining the Dragon Group, do they often carry out dangerous missions?"
Murong Yu shook her head, "I don't know about that, but the missions are definitely dangerous, after all, the missions they carry out are beyond the capabilities of ordinary soldiers." Su Dan Novel Network
Hearing this, Tang Xinwan's expression turned slightly grim, and her relaxed nerves tensed up again.
...
Meanwhile, at the Yuwen family residence, there was a mournful cry, and the entire family was enveloped in a somber atmosphere.
In the family ancestral hall, Yuwen Hao's corpse was still placed in the center of the main hall.
The funeral had not yet begun because Yuwen Hao's elder brother, Yuwen Chengji, had not returned.
A middle-aged beautiful woman was sobbing uncontrollably; she was Yuwen Hao's mother.
"What are you crying about? Will crying bring Hao'er back to life?"
Yuwen Qi reprimanded from the side. His face was pale, as if he had aged ten years, with streaks of white appearing at the sides of his hair.
His son's death made it impossible for him to vent his grief.
Not only was his Yuwen family being bullied, but they were also completely helpless against that Ye Cangtian. Where would that leave the face of the Yuwen family!
"My lord, that's your son! You must avenge Hao'er!" the middle-aged beautiful woman said tearfully.
Yuwen Qi's face was grim, and he didn't speak.
Did he not want to avenge his son? That was his son!
Yuwen Qi had only two sons. Although his eldest son, Yuwen Chengji, was outstanding, he had no intention of managing the family. Moreover, he had joined the Hidden Group, consolidating the foundation for their Yuwen family.
Although his second son, Yuwen Hao, was a bit of a rake, Yuwen Qi had always regarded him as the heir to the family.
This was also why Yuwen Hao was usually arrogant and caused a lot of trouble, yet Yuwen Qi rarely reprimanded him!
After all, causing some trouble when one was young was not a big deal! As long as he grew up, he could still lead the family.
But now? His only second son, who could inherit the family, had been murdered!
Yuwen Qi gritted his teeth. He must avenge this. That Ye Cangtian must die!
"The eldest young master is back!" a servant called from a distance.
Yuwen Chengji was back!
He had only joined the Hidden Group a couple of days ago when he received the news of his brother's death, so he had to rush back immediately.
Upon seeing Yuwen Hao lying in the center of the ancestral hall, Yuwen Chengji couldn't help but clench his fists and said coldly, "Dad, my brother was killed by Ye Cangtian?"
When he returned, a servant had already told him the cause of Yuwen Hao's death.
He remembered warning his brother not to provoke that guy named Ye Cangtian when he left a few days ago.
But his brother had agreed on the surface, yet secretly still went to provoke him.
Yuwen Qi closed his eyes and took a deep breath, saying, "You don't need to worry about this matter. You just joined the Hidden Group, and there are some things that are inconvenient for you to act on!"
Yuwen Chengji's eyes were red. That was his brother!
However, he knew what his father meant. The Yuwen family needed to establish a foothold in the Hidden Group and expand its influence. Only in this way could the family become stronger.
But his brother was killed, and was he really going to stand by and do nothing?
"After the funeral, Chengji, you should return to the Hidden Group!"
Yuwen Qi sighed and added, "Don't worry, your brother will not die in vain. I will find a way."
Yuwen Chengji fell silent.
Ye Cangtian was not weak. Yuwen Chengji had heard that he had fought against a Xuan-level expert from the Dark Association a few days ago, so apart from himself, no one in the Yuwen family could deal with him.
After a long pause, he suddenly said, "Dad, this person is not easy to deal with. Let me handle it."
Yuwen Qi was taken aback, "Chengji, you can't make a move!"
Yuwen Chengji shook his head and explained, "No, I won't make a move myself. I suddenly thought of someone, and he might be able to deal with Ye Cangtian!"
It seemed that after his brother's funeral, he would have to go to Prison Number One.
