Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 1048: The Jiang Family's Intelligence is Impressive


Ye Xiao heard Jiang Wuqi's words, chuckled and said, "Old man, you should know my identity, after all, even the Zhao family and the Chen family know."

Jiang Wuqi glanced at Ye Xiao, smiled slightly, and said, "Flame Dragon Team member, it's not a particularly big secret now."

Ye Xiao was still a bit surprised to hear Jiang Wuqi's words. Although he always thought the Jiang family might know, hearing it confirmed still surprised him, as it was his big secret after all.

Jiang Wuqi saw the surprise on Ye Xiao's face, chuckled and said, "You don't have to worry. I think in Bird City, only the Jiang family, Zhao family, and Chen family know these things. You should know Liuyue, right, the one you've crossed paths with? He's always had a good relationship with the Chen family."

The Chen family knows about Ye Xiao's matters because of Liuyue, and the Zhao family knows because of the Chen family.

So, the question is, what about the Jiang family?

Could the Chen family have reported Ye Xiao's identity to the Jiang family immediately after finding out?

Obviously, that's absolutely impossible.

Jiang Wuqi is too smart, an old master.

How could he not see Ye Xiao's thoughts? He chuckled and said, "You're wondering why I know, right? Do you know why the Jiang family is the leader of the eight Martial Arts Families in Bird City? Sometimes it's not just about martial strength, but also intelligence!"

"Intelligence?" Ye Xiao looked at Jiang Wuqi in surprise.

Jiang Wuqi smiled and said, "Yes, accurate intelligence is essential to defeating an opponent. Otherwise, why would the ancients say, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles'?"

Listening to Jiang Wuqi's words, Ye Xiao was truly a bit shocked. Suddenly, he felt like the Jiang family was a large net spread over Bird City, no matter how others bounced around, they couldn't escape this net.

Jiang Wuqi looked at the silent Ye Xiao, chuckled and said, "So, whatever the Chen family and Zhao family know, the Jiang family will definitely know. And whatever they don't know, the Jiang family might also know."

"Oh?" Ye Xiao looked at Jiang Wuqi and said seriously, "Old man, are you saying you know some other things about me?"

"A little bit, for example, you understand a secret technique that others don't." Jiang Wuqi said with a smile.

When Ye Xiao heard this, his expression changed dramatically.

If Ye Xiao's guess was right, the secret technique Jiang Wuqi mentioned was probably the Mad God Skill.

"I'm just a bit curious, what kind of secret technique possesses such magical effects!" Jiang Wuqi chuckled and said, "So, I think the Jiang family and you should always be on good terms."

Ye Xiao sat on the chair, always confident, but suddenly felt like a transparent person in front of Jiang Wuqi, who seemed to know everything about him.

"Right, about the Liu family, I'm very curious why you suddenly became enemies, and then it seemed like you no longer had that particularly antagonistic relationship?" Jiang Wuqi looked at Ye Xiao.

He didn't know about the Azure Dragon Tripod!

Ye Xiao's heart immediately echoed with this statement, and he secretly smiled wryly. Luckily, he didn't know.

Now Ye Xiao was most afraid that Jiang Wuqi also knew about the Azure Dragon Tripod. If he did, Ye Xiao would feel extremely passive.

"I'm willing to be friends with the Liu family!" Ye Xiao said.

Jiang Wuqi nodded and said, "If you're willing to be friends with the Liu family, I believe they'll be very happy. However, I must remind you, Liu Shixun is also a very sinister guy, so be careful."

Ye Xiao immediately nodded and said, "I will."

"Additionally!" Jiang Wuqi suddenly said again.

Ye Xiao looked up again at Jiang Wuqi.

Jiang Wuqi, with a kind face, smiled at Ye Xiao and said, "The Jiang family will always be your friend. For friends, the Jiang family will at most protect, but never monitor."

Ye Xiao knew Jiang Wuqi was hinting at something, and his originally serious expression finally relaxed. He smiled lightly and said, "Thank you."

"As I age, I often feel fatigued. I need to rest for a while. You go play with Coco and the others." Jiang Wuqi said as he stood up from the armchair.

Ye Xiao also stood up and said, "Old man, I'll come see you again someday."

"Mm, come often. There aren't many people here to talk with me," Jiang Wuqi said with a smile.

Ye Xiao nodded, watching Jiang Wuqi head upstairs.

Although Jiang Wuqi joked about being old, his steps up the stairs were still very agile, probably not even an ordinary young person could compare.

Ye Xiao then turned and left the hall!

When Ye Xiao left the hall, Jiang Wuqi stood upstairs, looking at the door that was already closed, smiled slightly, and sighed, "This guy really has a stubborn streak... hehe..."

When Ye Xiao walked out, Jiang Miaoke and the others were not waiting at the doorway, and they were off somewhere playing. Only a person named Jiang Tong stood outside.

"Mr. Ye!" Jiang Tong walked up to Ye Xiao and said respectfully.

Yes, it was indeed respect that Ye Xiao saw in Jiang Tong's eyes.

Ye Xiao smiled and looked at Jiang Tong, saying, "Uncle Tong, you don't need to call me Mr. Ye, just call me Ye Xiao. I'm the junior here."

"How can that be?" Jiang Tong immediately said, "Mr. Ye is a distinguished guest of the Jiang family."

Seeing the persistence on Jiang Tong's face, Ye Xiao knew that it wouldn't be good to keep pressing the issue. He smiled and said, "As you like. By the way, where did Coco and the others go?"

"Miss is now in the garden with Miss Mingyue admiring the flowers. I'll take you there," Jiang Tong said.

Ye Xiao said, "Then I'll trouble you, Uncle Tong."

"Mr. Ye, you're too polite!"

Ye Xiao really wasn't used to such formal address, but since Jiang Tong liked it so much, he couldn't do anything. After all, this was the Jiang family, and as they say, when in Rome, do as the Romans do.

Chatting casually with Jiang Tong, they walked to the Jiang family's garden.

From the garden of the Jiang family, you could tell that the Jiang family was truly a family that knew how to enjoy life. The garden was full of colorful flowers, and even some rare varieties were present. Previously, Ye Xiao hadn't really noticed that the Jiang family's estate was indeed unusually large.

"Ye Xiao!" Among the ladies, Fang Jing, the only one not in the mood to admire flowers, suddenly saw Ye Xiao approach with Jiang Tong, laughing and chatting, and immediately looked over.

As soon as Fang Jing said "Ye Xiao," all the other women who were admiring the flowers also looked over.

Now that Ye Xiao had returned, it signified that there was surely a conclusion to Fang Jing's health issue. Today, their visit to the Jiang family wasn't really meant for flower appreciation; the main purpose was Fang Jing's health condition.

However, seeing Ye Xiao still smiling now, almost everyone concluded that Fang Jing must be fine. Otherwise, how could Ye Xiao still be smiling?

"Ye Xiao, were you wrong?" Jiang Miaoke, still a bit upset about being driven out by Ye Xiao earlier, looked at him and said with a hint of challenge.

Ye Xiao smiled and said, "You got it right."

"I told you, don't be so hasty in your judgments," Jiang Miaoke said.

At this time, Fang Jing and Xia Mingyue, among others, also gathered around Ye Xiao.

"Ye Xiao, how's Jinger?" Xia Mingyue asked with genuine concern. So when she saw Ye Xiao, she quickly inquired.

Ye Xiao said, "Don't worry, she's really okay."

Earlier in the hall, when Xia Mingyue saw Ye Xiao tell them to leave, she felt her heart tighten. It was clear to any observant person that there was definitely a big issue; otherwise, Ye Xiao wouldn't have made them avoid it. However, to quickly find out about Fang Jing's health, Xia Mingyue cooperatively pulled Jiang Miaoke and the others to leave promptly.

Now, Ye Xiao said it was nothing!

If it was nothing, why did they have to leave? Wasn't it unnecessary?

Evidently, Ye Xiao saw Xia Mingyue's thoughts, and with a slight smile, leaned in to whisper a few words in her ear.

Xia Mingyue suddenly paused, looked at Fang Jing once, and then looked at Ye Xiao in disbelief.

Ye Xiao nodded slightly, indicating that everything was true.

Xia Mingyue suddenly felt a tingling sensation on her scalp; this was indeed an unexpected matter.

"What are you guys whispering about?" Jiang Miaoke found it displeasing that Ye Xiao discreetly informed Xia Mingyue without saying it openly, so she immediately told Ye Xiao, "Is there something we can't know?"

Fang Jing was also puzzled as to why Ye Xiao told Xia Mingyue but not her. Was she sick or not? If not, then there's all the more reason not to be secretive.

Ye Xiao smiled at Fang Jing and said, "Of course you can, but it's just trivial stuff, so saying it would be a waste of time. Mingyue, it's already past ten. Aren't you planning to go to the company?"

"Today is the weekend!" Jiang Miaoke immediately said.

"If I'm not mistaken, Yang Liufei and the others should be working overtime at the company. As the company president, if you could work overtime with them, I think the project would be even better," Ye Xiao said.

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Xia Mingyue knew he wanted to leave, so she smiled and said, "You're right, but you, the deputy general manager!"

Ye Xiao immediately said, "Must obey the leader and follow orders!"

"Then..." Xia Mingyue was just about to say to let Ye Xiao leave with her, but at that moment, Jiang Miaoke suddenly came over and said, "Hey, are you treating us like we're invisible?"

"..."

Xia Mingyue said to Jiang Miaoke with a smile, "Coco, do you want to visit our company?"

"I won't go to the company. I've made plans with Qi Xin and others, but Ye Xiao must come with us," Jiang Miaoke said.
