Chapter 1898 - 1898: Night Raid on Huang Family Manor
Yang Tianyun was very reluctant, but with Fu Qingping's hand firmly grasping him, he couldn't resist in the slightest. Even his jaw was dislocated, and he completely stopped resisting, fearing that if he angered this old man, he might be killed in an instant, dying unjustly.Fu Qingping grabbed Yang Tianyun with one hand and Ye Qing's arm with the other, and said to Yang Tianyun in a deep voice, "I'll ask you again, are there any traps in this manor? If you don't tell me, when we encounter a trap later, I'll throw you out first, letting you die by the trap!"
"Re... really no traps..." Yang Tianyun replied tremblingly, "I've been here many times, and there are no traps in this manor."
"Good," Fu Qingping responded coldly. "I don't care if you're telling the truth or lying; losing your life is the real issue!"
After saying that, Fu Qingping, holding the two men, suddenly leaped from behind the giant rock and began sprinting towards the manor from the direction of the rear mountain.
There were actually hidden sentries around the manor, but Yang Tianyun had already informed Fu Qingping of their positions. With Fu Qingping's skill and the cover of night, knowing the locations of the sentries in advance, he could easily avoid them. Entering the manor, no one noticed him at all.
Yang Tianyun, held in Fu Qingping's hand, was shocked to see Fu Qingping carrying two people while moving effortlessly over rooftops and walls, unaffected in the slightest. Earlier, the old man had said he could freely enter and exit the Huang Family Manor, and Yang Tianyun hadn't believed it then. Now, witnessing the old man's prowess, he had no choice but to believe.
Ye Qing was more concerned about the matters involving Ye Jun Black Bear and Liu Mubai, so he had no time to pay attention to Fu Qingping's light body skill. With Fu Qingping leading them, the three of them easily avoided the patrolling guards around the manor and quietly arrived outside the building where Huang Linhao lived.
During the day, while outside, Ye Qing had already observed this building thoroughly. So, upon arriving here, he was not unfamiliar at all and directed Fu Qingping to lead them to jump through the second-floor window.
Inside the window was a bedroom, pitch-black at the moment, with no one inside. Fu Qingping reached out to test it gently and found that the window was locked from the inside. However, this didn't stump him. He pressed on the edge of the window, applying gentle pressure, and without any sound, the window opened.
Yang Tianyun, standing by, widened his eyes in astonishment. A moment ago, he saw clearly that when Fu Qingping first reached out, the window was locked from the inside. But how was it that with one move, the window opened?
Ye Qing was equally surprised. When entering the room, he turned to look at the window and found that the latch was broken. So, Fu Qingping's gentle pressing earlier had broken the latch. The skill was so deft that no one heard a single sound.
When Ye Qing had his inner strength before, forcing the window open was no big deal. However, he knew very well that opening it without making any noise was impossible for him. Given that the latch was metal, opening it silently wasn't easy. This demonstrated that Fu Qingping's control over power had reached an extraordinary level, earning deep admiration.
Yang Tianyun, of course, didn't comprehend the realm of masters and naturally didn't know how formidable this strength was. But seeing the shattered latch, he was momentarily bewildered, not understanding how it had broken.
Fu Qingping pulled the two into the bedroom, listened to the surrounding sounds, gestured for silence to Ye Qing, and slowly led them to the door.
Now, Ye Qing finally heard the sound coming from outside.
The bedroom door was not tightly closed, allowing them to clearly see the situation outside through the gap.
Outside was a spacious living room, with three young people seated inside. The one in the middle closely resembled Yang Tianyun's description and was likely Huang Linhao.
For safety, Ye Qing pulled Yang Tianyun over, letting him recognize the person through the door gap. Yang Tianyun looked and, pointing at the man in the middle, nodded to Ye Qing, indicating that this was Huang Linhao.
Confirming that this person was Huang Linhao, Ye Qing felt a surge of excitement. Huang Linhao surely knew where Ye Jun and the other two were imprisoned. Capturing him would reveal the whereabouts of the three.
Ye Qing turned to look at Fu Qingping, who understood his intentions. Without waiting for Ye Qing to speak, he gently pushed open the door.
The three people outside were engrossed in conversation, paying no attention to the bedroom door. Fu Qingping slipped out of the room, and in almost an instant, stood in front of the three in the living room.
The three had never expected someone to appear from the room. Before they could react, Fu Qingping had already tapped the acupoints of two and swiftly grabbed the third, Huang Linhao.
Seeing Fu Qingping act swiftly, accomplishing the task in an instant, Ye Qing was overjoyed. He hurriedly pulled Yang Tianyun to leave.
"Master, thank you so much!" Ye Qing said excitedly.
Fu Qingping smiled faintly, casually patted Huang Linhao on the body, and threw him in front of Ye Qing. This pat didn't make much noise, but Huang Linhao felt his entire body numb as he fell to the ground, unable to muster the strength to get up, only able to utter weak sounds from his mouth.
"Who are you... who are you? Yang Tianyun, who are these people?" Huang Linhao questioned Yang Tianyun in a deep voice, looking fearfully at Fu Qingping and Ye Qing, still unaware of what had happened.
"Ah ah ah..." Yang Tianyun, with his jaw dislocated, couldn't speak and could only make a few sounds. Huang Linhao's accumulated might was still intimidating, and Yang Tianyun didn't even dare to look him in the eye.
"Did you bring these people in? Yang Tianyun, how dare you betray our Huang Family!" Huang Linhao shouted angrily, looking menacingly at Yang Tianyun and angrily said, "Do you know what happens to those who betray the Huang Family?"
Yang Tianyun trembled all over with fear, even more afraid to meet Huang Linhao's gaze. Ye Qing took out a dagger, pointed it at Huang Linhao's neck, and said in a deep voice, "Are you Huang Linhao? The Young Master of the Huang Family?"
Huang Linhao gritted his teeth and looked at Ye Qing, saying in a deep voice, "Since you know who I am, you should understand what you're doing now! I am the Young Master of the Huang Family, and you still dare to treat me like this? Are you planning to become enemies with the entire Huang Family? I tell you, the Huang Family today is not what it was when Huang Yidao that good-for-nothing was alive. If you dare touch a finger of mine, don't expect to live!"
Ye Qing pressed the dagger closer to Huang Linhao's neck, the blade immediately piercing slightly, making Huang Linhao's expression change from the pain. This move made him realize that the name of the Huang Family could not intimidate Ye Qing, so he immediately closed his mouth.
Ye Qing said coldly, "Let me tell you, my name is Ye Qing, and it was by my own hand that the previous Head of your Huang Family, Huang Yidao, was killed!"
"Ah?" Huang Linhao's eyes widened, his face full of shock as he stared at Ye Qing, his expression filled with incredulity. Of course, he knew of the matters between his family and Ye Qing, and he never expected to encounter Ye Qing inside the Huang Family, realizing the true danger now. Considering the history between the Huang Family and Ye Qing, he truly dared to kill him!
"Since you know my name, I advise you to be honest." Ye Qing tapped Huang Linhao's face with the dagger, saying in a deep voice, "I will ask, and you will answer. If you dare not answer or lie, I will first break one of your hands. You have two hands, so I can cut twice. If hands are not enough, there are also two feet. If you are willing to play, I will play with you until all your limbs are gone!"
Huang Linhao was shaking with fear; if these words had come from someone else's mouth, he might not be afraid. However, coming from Ye Qing, he had to be afraid. After all, the matters the Huang Family engaged in this time were a deep enmity with Ye Qing. Moreover, since Ye Qing mercilessly killed Huang Yidao, what more would he do to him?
"You... you may ask..." Huang Linhao replied in a trembling voice.
"The first question..." Ye Qing looked at Huang Linhao and asked in a deep voice, "I know the Huang Family captured Ye Jun Black Bear and Liu Mubai. Where are the three of them being held now?"
"Held... held in the dungeon..." Huang Linhao replied, fearing Ye Qing would find his answer incomplete, and quickly added, "The dungeon is in the basement of the third building on the north side of the manor, which is my fifth uncle's place. Unless it's a family elder or someone with my father's token, ordinary people cannot enter!"
Ye Qing did not care whether it was accessible or not, as long as he knew where Ye Jun and the others were, that was enough.
"Regarding that question..." Ye Qing looked at Huang Linhao but did not continue speaking.
Every pore in Huang Linhao's body stood on end, fearing Ye Qing would say he did not answer well and break his limbs.
"You answered very well!" Ye Qing responded calmly, and Huang Linhao felt a relief wash over him, involuntarily letting out a breath. Just now, he was so scared that cold sweat covered him, soaking his clothes.
"The second question..." Ye Qing said coldly, "I heard that the Huang Family recently allied with someone to deal with me. Who exactly is this person?"
"I don't know who this person is either..." Huang Linhao replied, noticing Ye Qing's expression change, and quickly added, "I... I really don't know who this person is, even though my father has been involving me in many matters recently, I was not much involved in this. However... however, I have seen what that person looks like, I... I can describe his appearance to you..."
Ye Qing, seeing Huang Linhao's expression, thought he did not seem to be lying, then said in a deep voice, "Alright, then describe his appearance."
