The next day, early in the morning.
The sun was high in the sky when the two people in the room finished their first meal of the day, woke up feeling refreshed, and their spirits were lifted.
Taking a deep breath of the refreshing air, another brand new day had begun.
And today, they were preparing to embark on a family trip to the Duchy of Best, a trip that was destined to become a beautiful memory.
After breakfast.
Carrying their packed belongings, they drove away from Yangcheng in a stretched Ferrari, the engine roaring as they headed towards Tianhai Airport, as Yangcheng, a small place, did not have international flights.
Perhaps it was because they had slept late the previous night, but Luo Tianyi fell asleep as soon as she leaned back in the recliner after arriving in the first-class cabin. Her future mother-in-law, Chen Xiaowan, seeing this, covered her daughter-in-law with a blanket, fearing she might catch a cold.
Ye Pengfei, on the other hand, was taking care of the three treasures. The saying about the affection of grandparents was indeed true. From the moment they left home, Ye's father's gaze had not left his three adorable grandsons.
By the time Luo Tianyi woke up, the plane had smoothly landed at Best City Airport in the Duchy of Best.
They called a car and drove towards the Best City Hilton, a seven-star hotel where they had pre-booked rooms.
The three treasures were carried by Chen Xiaowan to the adjacent room and fell sound asleep. These little ones had been sleeping since they disembarked.
Luo Tianyi, upon entering her room, immediately headed to the bathroom for a shower, wanting to shake off the sleepiness after the long flight.
Ye Xuan, meanwhile, left his room and entered the one opposite.
A man had been waiting there for a long time. Dressed in luxurious attire, this man was none other than Pulis, one of the few Earls in the Duchy of Best.
Upon hearing the door open, Pulis, who already knew Ye Xuan's appearance, stood up solemnly, placed his right hand on his left shoulder, bowed, and said, "Pulis pays his respects to the noble Duke!"
At this moment, Pulis dared not underestimate the Duke of Best before him. It was an incredible feat to have purchased Best through special means, a testament to his extraordinary nature.
Furthermore, when he had reported Best's financial deficit, Ye Xuan had unhesitatingly given him 10 billion, which was not something ordinary people could do.
Therefore, as the first meeting between the Duke and the Finance Minister of Best, Pulis did not dare to be remiss or presumptuous.
Ye Xuan glanced at Pulis, not paying much attention to his demeanor, and sat down, beginning to report on the use of the 10 billion and the current state of Best, which was now on the right track.
"Your Grace, there is one more matter that I believe I should inform you of."
After reporting on Best's domestic situation, Pulis's brow furrowed with worry as he thought of the covetous ambitions of the surrounding kingdoms.
Currently, Best had no Duke to lead them, making it an exceptionally tempting prize.
"For years, Best has been without a leader, causing many nations to cast greedy eyes upon it, especially the Duchy of Mixi. Three days ago, they mobilized 30,000 troops and assembled at the northern border of the Duchy of Best, posing an immediate threat of invasion..."
Pulis recounted all the dire circumstances facing Best, detailing the situation with complete accuracy. This was, in addition to the domestic financial deficit, Best's most pressing problem.
"Duchy of Mixi?"
Hearing Pulis's words, Ye Xuan frowned slightly. This was the first time he had heard of this country, but he surmised it was not much larger than Best, yet harbored considerable ambition.
However, although it was a duchy, Ye Xuan clearly did not take it seriously. In the face of absolute power, the distinction between a duchy and a kingdom was insignificant.
"I am aware of this matter."
Ye Xuan pondered for a moment and then said to Pulis, "Earl Pulis, your sole task is to maintain and develop the Duchy of Best. As for the ill intentions of Mixi and the surrounding nations, I will handle them."
"This..."
"Yes, Your Grace!"
Pulis was slightly taken aback. Although he did not know how the new Duke of Best would resolve the issue, Pulis respectfully agreed. After all, everything he had was given by the former Duke, and to maintain these rewards, he had to preserve his relationship with the new Duke.
Otherwise, let alone his position as Finance Minister, his Earldom itself could be overturned in an instant.
Having reached his current position, Pulis understood this principle perfectly.
Half an hour later.
Pulis bowed and took his leave. In the room, Ye Xuan thought for a moment before calling Baili Wushuang.
"What!?"
"Someone is coveting Best Duchy, the headquarters of our Pluto Hall."
Upon hearing Ye Xuan's words, a murderous glint flashed in Baili Wushuang's eyes.
"Understood, Hall Master. Wushuang knows what to do."
A terrifying aura surged around Baili Wushuang. The headquarters of Pluto Hall was something the Hall Master had planned for a long time. Now, to hear that someone was coveting the Duchy of Best meant that person must die, no matter who they were.
"Men, investigate everything about the Duchy of Mixi!"
Baili Wushuang gave the order, and the intelligence system immediately began working at high capacity.
About half an hour later.
"Oh!?"
Baili Wushuang looked at the message received on his phone, his eyes gleaming. "This Duchy of Mixi actually has the shadow of the Temple of Light behind it?"
"This is quite interesting."
Baili Wushuang smiled sinisterly, then dialed the number of Heavenly King Lin Feng. "Hello, Heavenly King Lin. We have news about the Temple of Light. The time for revenge has come."
"Good!"
Upon hearing Baili Wushuang's words, Lin Feng's eyes flashed with ferocity, and his killing intent surged, even dispersing the clouds in the sky.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Feng received a message from Baili Wushuang, and the murderous intent in his eyes intensified. "Temple of Light! Good!! Very good!!!"
"The revenge for my wife's death will not be forgiven. No matter who has come this time, they will all die!!"
A terrifying aura erupted at this moment. Lin Feng had already entered the realm of a God of War, becoming a powerful warrior, and his combat strength far surpassed that of an ordinary God of War.
Killing intent!
Unparalleled killing intent permeated the air. Lin Feng wished he could immediately strike down everyone in the Temple of Light to comfort his wife's spirit in heaven.
And in the Duchy of Mixi, the branch of the Temple of Light was about to unleash a world-ending catastrophe.
