Ouyang Kuang's furious voice also made the subordinates on the other end of the walkie-talkie tremble with fear, and they quickly responded, "We'll immediately send people to blockade the surrounding streets!"
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up!!!"
Ouyang Kuang shouted into the walkie-talkie, unable to stop himself from cursing angrily.
But just cursing couldn't quell the fire in his heart. After all, they had finally managed to corner Ye Qiu, and were about to kill him to report back to the family head. Instead, Ye Qiu just escaped. It was like a duck flying out of his mouth; how could his anger not be greater?
"There's no need to be so anxious. Don't worry, Ye Qiu won't get away."
However, at this moment, another woman from the Ouyang Family saw Ouyang Kuang's frustrated appearance and chuckled softly, speaking to him.
"What do you mean by that?"
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Kuang paused, turned his head, and looked at this woman from the Ouyang Family.
"To prevent such things from happening, when Ye Qiu appeared, I left my mark on him."
Then, the woman from the Ouyang Family showed a seductive smile and said, "No matter where he escapes to, as long as my mark is on him, he can never escape from my grasp."
"When did you do it?!"
Ouyang Kuang was somewhat surprised. He clearly remembered that this woman from the Ouyang Family didn't have much interaction with Ye Qiu from start to finish. When did she make her move?
Immediately, alongside his surprise, Ouyang Kuang became somewhat excited, unable to contain himself, he urgently said, "Since you made a mark, why didn't you say earlier? Hurry and take me to chase him, or else he might really escape?!!"
With the Ouyang Family's subordinates sealing off the nearby streets, plus this woman from the Ouyang Family's mark on Ye Qiu, they could definitely capture the escaping Ye Qiu and then finish him off!!!
Thinking of this, Ouyang Kuang's face became ferocious, his gaze filled with hatred!
"Don't be impatient, I said, Ye Qiu won't escape."
However, to the excited Ouyang Kuang, the woman from the Ouyang Family glanced at him and then spoke disdainfully, "Moreover, even if we chase him now, can you guarantee you will surely kill him? Don't forget how terrifying was the sword Ye Qiu exhibited just now."
"I... of course I can kill him."
Ouyang Kuang was irritated by the woman's disdainful look, but thinking of Ye Qiu's sword shadow that was close to the peak of Human Realm just now, his voice suddenly lost confidence.
Though he didn't know what method Ye Qiu used to actually execute Ancestor Bai's move, he had to admit, the power of Ye Qiu's sword was daunting enough that even trying to withstand it felt quite strained.
Earlier, he teamed up with that woman from the Ouyang Family, only then did they dissipate the power of Ye Qiu's sword, and even so, he still sustained some internal injuries.
Therefore, if Ye Qiu can execute that terrifying sword again, he cannot ensure killing Ye Qiu.
Seeing Ouyang Kuang's confidence waver a bit, the woman from the Ouyang Family continued, "To prevent unexpected issues, we should report this to the higher-ups, and let them make the decision."
"Currently, the family head's hatred towards Ye Qiu is so intense, once knowing Ye Qiu's whereabouts, they will definitely dispatch more experts to surround and squash Ye Qiu. When that time comes, no matter how skilled Ye Qiu is, he won't escape with wings."
With that, the woman from the Ouyang Family interestingly glanced at Ouyang Kuang, speaking with a half-smile, "Compared to the risk of chasing Ye Qiu, don't you find this choice much safer?"
"Let's proceed as you suggest."
Even though Ouyang Kuang still wanted to personally pursue and kill Ye Qiu, he had to admit that the woman made a good point, so he suppressed his impulse, huffed coldly, and said.
...
"King, are you alright?!"
Connecting to Cat's call, Cat's anxious inquiry sounded.
"I'm fine, I've already shaken off those two Ouyang experts and escaped."
Speaking in a deep voice, Ye Qiu glanced around. On this riverside path he was on, he felt no one else's presence besides himself, so he should be safe now.
"How's the situation on your end, did you rescue Qiu Shi's wife and kids?"
Exhaling, Ye Qiu then seriously queried Cat.
Their operation this time aimed to rescue Qiu Shi's wife and kids; if they didn't succeed, this trip would have been for nothing.
"They're right beside me. I just led them, avoiding the Ouyang Family's blockade."
Cat spoke, also chuckling bitterly, somewhat helplessly, "These Ouyang Family members blocked several street roads, trapping countless people inside, even the police can't handle them. I snuck out through the sewer."
Listening to Cat's words, Ye Qiu could imagine that things were also not easy on Cat's end.
Luckily, both Ye Qiu and Cat managed to escape.
"King, what should we do next? Should we send Qiu Shi's wife and kids out of Gan Province?"
Once confirming everyone was safe, Cat couldn't help but inquire of Ye Qiu.
"Absolutely. If they remain in Ying City, it will still be dangerous, the Ouyang Family might come after them again."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu responded gravely, "Let's do this, while the Ouyang Family focuses on me, you quickly send them out of Ying City, settle them in Jiangnan or elsewhere. Once the situation stabilizes, bring them back safely."
"Okay, got it. I'll talk to them and send them away right away."
On the other end of the phone, Cat quickly responded, concluding the matter just like that.
Then, Ye Qiu instructed Cat a few more things before hanging up the call.
"Must speed up recovery."
Then, Ye Qiu glanced down at his trembling arms and legs, feeling the pain still coming from his meridians, sighed helplessly.
Originally, he already required a long time to recover from injuries, and now with additional wounds, he would need even longer.
