After leaving the corporate building, He Xiran asked puzzledly.

Chen Yang glanced back at the building and explained, "No matter how you look at it, we don’t understand Mr. Yi enough."

"We’ve already taken a great risk coming here, so we can’t expose the location of Liuhe Village."

He Xiran paused and then, after careful thought, agreed.

Their revenge alliance had just settled in Liuhe Village, and if anything were to go wrong, the situation would become very dire.

Being cautious is always good.

"I understand," He Xiran nodded.

"Alright, let’s go. Don’t you have some matters to attend to? Go deal with your stuff first, and we’ll head to the outskirts this evening," Chen Yang said.

"Okay."

He Xiran nodded and followed Chen Yang into the car, leaving the vicinity of the corporate building. They drove towards the outskirts of the provincial city and arrived at what seemed like a desolate mountain area.

Amidst the weeds and trees of this desolate mount, there stood a villa that appeared somewhat luxurious.

Because it hadn’t been inhabited for many years, it looked a bit run-down and desolate.

Once they arrived, Chen Yang and He Xiran got out of the car.

As he stepped out, Chen Yang instinctively looked around. "What is this place?"

After leaving the corporate building, Chen Yang had been following He Xiran’s directions the whole way, so he didn’t know what this place was.

"This is my home."

He Xiran gazed at the rundown villa with a complicated expression.

"Your home?" Chen Yang was surprised, then quickly realized something and didn’t ask further.

After getting out of the car, He Xiran walked slowly towards the villa and then entered.

Five years ago, He Xiran was just an ordinary person.

The family was relatively well-off.

But a tragedy five years ago led to her parents’ death, and the family fell apart.

Chen Yang had learned something about these circumstances from Chen Tianmin.

So upon hearing that it was He Xiran’s family home, he roughly understood the situation.

Presumably, He Xiran’s parents were murdered here back then.

Later on, He Xiran met Chen Tianmin and subsequently joined the revenge alliance.

While the villa was desolate, the furniture and decorations inside were all intact.

In the hall, there were even two memorial tablets on display.

It was clear they belonged to He Xiran’s parents.

"Five years ago, my father offended the Blood Bat Hall people because of business reasons, resulting in revenge. If Uncle hadn’t saved me in time, I probably wouldn’t be alive in this world now."

He Xiran spoke slowly, her tone heavy.

It was as if she were talking to herself, but also speaking to Chen Yang.

For some reason, Chen Yang could easily understand He Xiran’s feelings at that moment.

"My condolences."

Not knowing what to say, Chen Yang simply walked up to He Xiran and patted her shoulder to offer comfort.

"Chen Yang, accompany me to offer incense to my parents. I haven’t returned for a long time, and if I leave this time, I don’t know when I’ll be back again," He Xiran said, her eyes misty.

"Alright."

Chen Yang picked up the incense and candles placed nearby, lit them, and paid his respects.

Afterward, He Xiran took a square wooden box from a cabinet on the villa’s second floor.

She didn’t say what was in it, and Chen Yang didn’t ask.

It’s her privacy, so it’s not appropriate to inquire further.

After paying respects to her parents and taking the wooden box,

He Xiran’s business was concluded.

The two walked out of the villa together, preparing to drive away and return to the provincial city to find a few truck drivers.

To transport resources needed for the night.

But after driving only several dozen meters, Chen Yang suddenly sensed something was amiss.

The mountain road was not paved with concrete but was a relatively soft dirt road.

Though it wasn’t raining, the traces of car travel on the ground were still very evident.

It was clear enough to see two sets of tracks where cars had passed.

Apart from the trail they left when entering earlier, it indicated there were other vehicles that had been here.

In this deserted wilderness, cars seldom came by.

This made Chen Yang vigilant.

"Chen Yang, why aren’t we moving?"

He Xiran, feeling very emotional at the time, didn’t pay much attention to these details.

Seeing Chen Yang suddenly stop the car by the roadside, she couldn’t help but ask.

"Look at the ground," Chen Yang said.

He Xiran heard that and looked over, and immediately understood.

"We’ve been tracked!"

"Very likely." Chen Yang looked around, trying to find the people nearby.

But all around were towering weeds and trees, and he couldn’t see anything at all.

"Could it be Blood Bat Hall?" He Xiran’s mood suddenly became tense.

"I don’t think so." Chen Yang muttered a sentence lightly and then instructed, "Be careful in the car, I’ll get out and check."

As he spoke, Chen Yang pushed the door open and got out of the car, starting to look along the tire tracks on the ground.

The tire tracks on the road were very obvious marks, and there were no extra roads to take in the mountains.

Chen Yang followed the marks for about two or three minutes and found a car deliberately hidden among the weeds.

In the car, there were also two men.

When the two saw Chen Yang suddenly appear behind their car, their expressions were noticeably shocked.

Then, without saying a word, they directly started the vehicle.

Vroom!!

The car roared violently, reversing rapidly to try to escape.

Chen Yang stood firm, pushed with his hands, and directly fixed the car in place.

Regardless of how the people in the car increased the horsepower.

The car continued spinning in place and couldn’t move even an inch.

The two in the car saw Chen Yang behind the car holding it back and were alarmed and scared.

Is this still human? Confronting the force of the car with a mere body?

Vroom, vroom, vroom!!

The accelerator was pressed to the floor, and the car roared madly.

But no matter what, it couldn’t reverse even half a step.

After a few intense roars, with a bang, the car’s engine blew.

Completely lost power.

"It’s over, it’s over."

The people in the car were desperate.

Seeing the car lose power, Chen Yang let go and quickly walked to the driver’s side, yanking the car door open.

The inside of the car was locked.

But Chen Yang’s strength directly tore the door off!

"Get out!"

He grabbed the man’s collar and pulled him out.

"Hey, brother, don’t get worked up, we have no grievances or enmity, there’s no need to attack us." The man in the driver’s seat was terrified and quickly begged for mercy.

The man in the passenger seat wasn’t much better.

Seeing Chen Yang act so violently, he didn’t even need Chen Yang to do anything, he simply climbed out from the passenger seat.

His hands held his head consciously and squatted by the car.

Seeing the situation with the two men, Chen Yang was somewhat puzzled.

He had thought they were Blood Bat Hall people.

But from their behavior and the absence of cultivator energy from them, they didn’t seem to be Blood Bat Hall members.

"Who are you people? Why are you tracking me?" Chen Yang asked coldly.

Although the man was scared, faced with Chen Yang’s questioning, he still didn’t speak.

"Not talking? Then you’ve brought this upon yourselves."

Seeing they weren’t cooperating, Chen Yang didn’t hold back; he twisted his arm slightly, causing the man to yell out in pain.

"Stop, stop, I’ll talk, I’ll talk."

The man was just an ordinary person and didn’t have much endurance.

Seeing Chen Yang really dared to act, he immediately caved.

"Whew." The man gasped in pain and hurriedly confessed.

"It was... it was President Yi who sent us to track you."

The man’s gaze shifted nervously as he spoke.

"President Yi?" Chen Yang was somewhat surprised, and his brow instinctively furrowed.

"Yes, it was President Yi who sent us." The man nodded, emphasizing one more time.

"Why did he send you to track me? What’s the purpose?" Chen Yang was filled with questions.

He didn’t understand what Yi Dingxiang was up to, why he sent people to track him.

"I’m not sure about the specific purpose, I just followed his orders to come with you, he only asked me to report your location from time to time, the rest I don’t know." The man said flusteredly.

Seeing that this man didn’t seem to be lying, Chen Yang didn’t continue to press him.

After thinking for a moment, he used both hands to knock the two men unconscious.
