Urban Martial Saint

Inside the Seventh Elder's pocket is the phone he uses to contact the Wanyan Family. This phone still contains the text messages he sent to them.

The Seventh Elder doesn't know if Ye Qing has already discovered his identity, but for safety's sake, he plans to destroy the phone first. If Ye Qing hasn't realized he's a member of the Wanyan Family and later discovers this through the phone, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

Ye Qing is unaware of this; he's been worrying about whether the Seventh Elder has contacted the Iga-ryu side, so he hasn't noticed the Seventh Elder's subtle actions. Upon hearing the Seventh Elder's words, he smiles slightly and says, "I've changed my mind; I'll personally handle the matter of rescuing Zi Yu. During this time, I'm afraid the Seventh Elder will have to endure a bit."

The Seventh Elder's expression changes slightly; Ye Qing says he's going to personally rescue Huangfu Ziyu, which is tantamount to saying the Seventh Elder is no longer useful. If he's useless, then the Seventh Elder's treatment will certainly not be as good as before.

"Without me, you won't be able to contact the Sect Master!" the Seventh Elder says in a deep voice, hinting to Ye Qing that without his help, Ye Qing won't be able to rescue Huangfu Ziyu.

"Even with you, I can't contact the Sect Master!" Ye Qing replied calmly.

"You... What do you mean?" The Seventh Elder's heart can't help but pound; how does Ye Qing know he can't contact the Sect Master? This is a secret within the Iga-ryu, how does Ye Qing know this secret?

"What do I mean, the Seventh Elder should know better than me!" Ye Qing smiles faintly, walks to the door, and calls a few people in.

When Ye Qing turns to the door, the Seventh Elder quickly takes out the phone from his pocket and throws it out the window. Earlier, while his hand was in the pocket, he had already removed the phone battery. Outside the window is a flower bed, where the phone falls quietly among the flowers without making any sound, even Ye Qing doesn't notice.

Ye Qing calls a few people in and has them place the Seventh Elder under house arrest. They won't imprison him in a cell, but his activity range will be limited to a yard, unable to leave it. Moreover, all communication devices are shut down so that he cannot send any messages out. Additionally, for safety's sake, Ye Qing arranges for a few trusted subordinates to monitor the Seventh Elder, preventing Iga-ryu spies within the Seven Rudders of Hong Alliance from reaching him.

The Seventh Elder's Qihai Acupoint is destroyed, and his martial arts are completely wasted. Being under house arrest, he's completely unable to transmit messages externally. With this setup, Iga-ryu has no way to get any information from the Seventh Elder.

After arranging things concerning the Seventh Elder, Ye Qing immediately goes to find Handsome Fatty Wang and others. Currently, only he and Handsome Fatty Wang and others know that they left the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master together, so he needs them not to spread this news.

Luckily, Handsome Fatty Wang and the others have a habit of sleeping in, so when Ye Qing arrives, they're still asleep. Ye Qing doesn't stand on ceremony and wakes them all up.

Handsome Fatty Wang, who is sleeping most soundly, is naturally a hundred times dissatisfied upon being woken. He rubs his sleepy eyes and complains, "Hey, Young Ye, what are you doing? Early in the morning, can't a person get some sleep?"

The others are similarly displeased, but now knowing Ye Qing's identity, they don't dare show their dissatisfaction openly.

Without further ado, Ye Qing directly places two large boxes on the table in front of everyone.

"What is this?" Handsome Fatty Wang asks in surprise, looking at the boxes.

"Open them and see!" Ye Qing says.

Handsome Fatty Wang gives Ye Qing a suspicious look but still goes to open one of the boxes. As soon as the box is opened, his eyes widen, and he involuntarily cries out, "Oh my!"

Not only Handsome Fatty Wang, but everyone behind him also opens their eyes wide in astonishment upon seeing the contents of the box. Because the box is filled to the brim with money, utterly packed with cash!

Handsome Fatty Wang reaches his chubby hand in and grabs a big handful of money from the box, excitedly caressing it while looking at Ye Qing, he says, "Young Ye, what… What are you doing? Early in the morning, showing me this much money, clearly you don't want me to sleep! You know I'm allergic to money!"

Ye Qing smiles faintly and looks at the people behind Handsome Fatty Wang, saying, "This money is just a down payment. If you help me with something, there will be more money for you!"

Each box contains at least a million, so two boxes make two million. And this is just the deposit, imagine how much the total amount would be!

Handsome Fatty Wang hugs the box directly, saying, "Brother, whether it's killing or arson, just say the word!"

Everyone behind Handsome Fatty Wang looks at Ye Qing with determined expressions, indicating they'd do whatever he says without hesitation.

Listening to Handsome Fatty Wang's words, Ye Qing can't help but laugh; this greedy guy indeed belongs to the type whose eyes light up at the sight of money. It seems using money to pave the way with them is perfect.

Ye Qing says, "No need for killing or arson, you just need to help me spread a message!"

"A message? What message?" everyone asks in surprise, what kind of message is worth so much money?

Ye Qing says, "You left the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master with us, but you know what? There was another batch of people who left before us!"

"Are you kidding?" Handsome Fatty Wang immediately replies, "The path out of the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master was blown up, only leaving our route for departure. We didn't see anyone get out, it's impossible anyone exited first!"

Ye Qing looks at Handsome Fatty Wang and says calmly, "I say there was, so there was."

"Huh?" Handsome Fatty Wang is stunned, looking at Ye Qing for a moment, then suddenly laughs, "Right, right, there was a batch that left first. Damn, we almost fought with this group, if it weren't for encountering the Water Monster and being scattered, we really would have fought. Aren't you guys agreeing?"

"Right, right!" The people behind him quickly reply in unison. Although originally there was no one before Ye Qing, he paid them enough money to say people got out first, so that's the truth now, no need to deny.

Ye Qing smiles faintly, noting that although Handsome Fatty Wang can be shameless, he's quite clever. With one word from me, he understands the situation better, making things much easier.

"Do you know what the first group looked like?" Ye Qing asks.

"Whatever you say they looked like, they looked like," Handsome Fatty Wang promptly replies, showing how obliging he is.

Ye Qing says, "The ones who went out first were foreigners, with blond hair and blue eyes. There were about six or seven of them, things were chaotic, and you didn't see clearly. However, they seemed injured!"

Handsome Fatty Wang repeats Ye Qing's descriptions, nodding, "No problem, we've noted all of this down!"

"Remember this well!" Ye Qing says calmly, "After this succeeds, each of you will receive another million as a reward. However, if anyone messes this up, not only will they not get the money, but I definitely won't let them off!"

"Rest assured, we absolutely won't go against money!" Handsome Fatty Wang turns to look at the group behind him, saying, "You all got it down, right?"

"All clear!" Everyone replies in chorus, well of course they've got it memorized with this much money in sight!

Ye Qing says, "Also, we came out together with a total of eight people. Aside from my ancestor, Old Chen, and Wen'er, there are five unconscious elders."

"Five unconscious elders? No problem, we've got that down!" Handsome Fatty Wang nods again.

Ye Qing: "Furthermore, I carried a very large package, which held unknown contents, but I guarded it very carefully!"

The group immediately repeats this message, realizing that Ye Qing is implying that before them, members of the Church also escaped first. And by saying they're injured, it suggests Ye Qing obtained something from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master and injured them. The five unconscious elders he's talking about are certainly referring to those senior members from the Iga-ryu. And the large package is a hint towards Heavenly Cluster Clouds.

Ye Qing doesn't know what Heavenly Cluster Clouds looks like, only heard through Wen'er's mother a rough idea of its size, so uses the package hint.

Ye Qing informs Handsome Fatty Wang and others of this message in order to use them to spread these rumors out. Thus Iga-ryu members, upon receiving this information, will contact Ye Qing directly before he gets in touch with them. And when they come to contact Ye Qing, rescuing Huangfu Ziyu will be easier.

The reason for entrusting this task to Handsome Fatty Wang is primarily because they are direct witnesses of Ye Qing's departure, making them the best source of information. If anyone wants info, they'll naturally come to them first.

After delegating the entire task once more, Ye Qing remains slightly uneasy and goes over every part with Handsome Fatty Wang and others until he's reassured.

Leaving two million for Handsome Fatty Wang and company to divide, the expressions of everyone becomes even more excited after getting the money. As they say, money talks, Ye Qing pays them so much, it's no surprise they're willing to spread rumors for him; they'd even do killing or arson if asked. After all, these people risked their lives going to the tomb for money in the first place. Helping Ye Qing spread rumors yields more profit than exploring tombs!
