"Brother Xiao, you're not talking about the Blue-tailed Fox KTV nearby, are you? It's better if you academy students stay away from such places."

"You probably don't know, Brother Xiao..." Ling Shuya was about to reveal Brother Xiao's and Blue-tailed Fox's identities upon hearing Wang Luoxin's words.

However, before Ling Shuya could finish speaking, Ye Xiao said with a smile, "A friend of mine works there as a waiter, so I can get a discount if I go there."

Hearing this, Ling Shuya stopped speaking as well. She wasn't foolish, and she could naturally see that Ye Xiao didn't want Wang Luoxin to know about certain things.

Then, Ye Xiao looked at Ling Shuya, Zhou Yuyan, Shen Qiuyu, Su Yun, and Lan Lan, the five girls, and said, "Now that we're full, isn't it time we left?"

"Leave now?" Zhou Yuyan said, "I actually want to learn how to make porridge from Luo Xin. If I could make such thin porridge, that would be great. Whenever I want to drink it, I could just make it myself."

Hearing Zhou Yuyan's words, the others also seemed reluctant to leave.

But now, letting them stay made Ye Xiao really uneasy. Finally, insisting on his decision, everyone left Xinxin Porridge House. Wang Luoxin was even very enthusiastic, sending them off at the door, all the while giving Ye Xiao flirtatious glances continuously.

"Wang Luoxin really has a thing for Ye Xiao." After walking a good distance, Zhou Yuyan said with a giggle, "Didn't you see her continuously giving him the eye?"

"Where did that come from?" Ye Xiao immediately denied, "She must think I'm just a kid, stop always thinking weird stuff."

"Oh, come on. You don't know how happy you are right now, you must be thrilled." Ling Shuya immediately said somewhat sourly, "But remember, snagging a bride comes at a steep price."

"Damn." Ye Xiao, hearing Ling Shuya's words, was really disgruntled. If he were to marry Ling Shuya herself, a hefty price would be understandable. Why should he need to meet her standards if he marries someone else? Maybe they would even throw themselves at him?

Actually, being a male lover was also an option; after all, those who could fulfill such a role were definitely no ordinary people.

"Be civilized!" Ling Shuya immediately glared at Ye Xiao.

"How could I be civilized? Ling Shuya, can't you be reasonable?"

"How am I not being reasonable? Hah, you see? Just trying something random and your sly fox tail sticks right out," she snapped.

Ye Xiao instantly fell silent; this girl was truly becoming more and more cunning.

"Wait a second, Ye Xiao, weren't we supposed to drive from the school gate? Why are we…" Lan Lan suddenly noticed that Ye Xiao was heading in the wrong direction and immediately asked out of confusion.

Ye Xiao certainly wasn't heading back right away as he had something he needed to handle.

"I need to meet a friend," Ye Xiao said. "I'll head back afterward."

"Going where? Is it Lin Dieying, Song Jiaqian, or Song Jiamin? Or maybe Guan Xiaonan?" Zhou Yuyan asked.

Ye Xiao said, "Can't it be a guy?"

"A guy, huh? Bros for life," Zhou Yuyan said calmly.

Ye Xiao immediately broke down.

Outside the Blue-tailed Fox KTV.

Zhao Dapeng, Huang Feng, and Wang Qing were standing at the entrance, continuously waiting. The person coming wasn't ordinary, and while Heavenly Gate was now extraordinary, those three were major figures of Heavenly Gate. To the followers of Heavenly Gate or others, they were considered super badass.

However, they didn't feel arrogant at the moment, but were instead infinitely respectful.

"Peng, Brother Xiao mentioned something specific? Why suddenly come here?" Wang Qing asked Zhao Dapeng.

Although Wang Qing had always been somewhat resentful about Zhao Dapeng becoming the boss of Heavenly Gate, Zhao Dapeng had Ye Xiao standing behind him, and Ye Xiao's capabilities were truly something Wang Qing looked up to. So, Wang Qing didn't dare to make a fuss and remained extremely respectful towards Zhao Dapeng. Since the founding of Heavenly Gate, Wang Qing had become much more restrained, seemingly understanding that some things couldn't be changed just by efforts.

Zhao Dapeng said, "How would I know what Brother Xiao thinks? Don't we just stand and wait?"

Regarding Wang Qing, Zhao Dapeng was always frosty, which caused Wang Qing to be quite unhappy in private.

However, that was private, and facing Zhao Dapeng, Wang Qing remained highly respectful.

So, hearing Zhao Dapeng's words, Wang Qing didn't dare to make a sound.

Zhao Dapeng and the others waited at the entrance of Blue-tailed Fox KTV for more than twenty minutes before they finally saw a man and five women approaching from the distance. Nobody really noticed what the man looked like, but the women were stunning, each resembling a goddess descending to earth. Those with poor restraint probably would have drooled.

After all, seeing such a beauty is already a fortunate treat, but at this moment, suddenly encountering five of them was even more astonishing than a grand official's inspection.

"Is that Brother Xiao?" Huang Feng looked at the man surrounded by five women in disbelief and exclaimed.

Zhao Dapeng was also surprised. Ye Xiao had a good way with women, and indeed, there were beauties around him, but how could there suddenly be so many this time, precisely five? Zhao Dapeng hadn't seen this many just a few days ago.

However, now that they had seen Ye Xiao, they couldn't just stand there. They quickly walked toward him.

"Brother Xiao," Zhao Dapeng and others greeted Ye Xiao cheerfully when they were about ten meters away.

The originally chatting and laughing Ling Shuya and the others fell silent when they heard Zhao Dapeng and the rest calling out to Ye Xiao, knowing that these people were Ye Xiao's friends or rather his subordinates.

Seeing Zhao Dapeng and two others approaching, Ye Xiao immediately said with a wry smile, "You guys were really waiting here."

"Brother Xiao, you are our pillar of support. It's only right that we wait here for you." This wasn't Zhao Dapeng speaking because before he could say anything, Wang Qing was already looking admiringly at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Then let's head over."

So, Ye Xiao and the others quickly walked toward Blue-tailed Fox KTV.

Inside Blue-tailed Fox KTV, there were quite a few people. Now that Blue-tailed Fox KTV was already established as Heavenly Gate's temporary headquarters, it had been bought by Heavenly Gate. Naturally, there were more people here. When Ye Xiao walked in, many recognized him and respectfully greeted him as Brother Xiao.

Ye Xiao responded with smiles all around, and the several beauties glanced at each other.

"Sister Su, Shuya, you guys stay here a while. I'll go upstairs and come down quickly." Ye Xiao said smilingly to Su Yun, Ling Shuya, and the other beauties.

Ling Shuya immediately raised an eyebrow and said displeasedly, "Did you bring us here just to have us stay here? Hmph, I don't want to sit idly by. It's not fun at all."

Ye Xiao was immediately troubled. The matter he was about to discuss was something he really didn't want these girls to know about.

Just then, Huang Feng said with a smile to Ye Xiao, "Brother Xiao, this is a KTV after all. They probably like singing."

Hearing Huang Feng's words, Ling Shuya quickly said, "That's a good suggestion. See, Ye Xiao, you're not as thoughtful as others."

Ye Xiao then wryly smiled, then spoke to Huang Feng, "Find the best VIP room, the sound quality must be good."

"Yes, Brother Xiao," Huang Feng chuckled and continued, "Brother Xiao, you guys go upstairs first. I'll handle everything and follow you soon."

Ye Xiao nodded and then he and Zhao Dapeng went up to the second floor.

Meanwhile, Huang Feng was tasked with arranging for Ling Shuya, Su Yun, and others to sing, while Ye Xiao arrived at a conference room on the second floor.

Because Blue-tailed Fox KTV was now confirmed as Heavenly Gate's temporary headquarters, naturally, its conference room was very well equipped. Ye Xiao had been here before.

Inside the conference room.

Ye Xiao sat in the usual place Zhao Dapeng had sat.

No one objected to Ye Xiao's seating. In fact, it was most fitting for Ye Xiao to sit there.

"Peng, about last time... I told you to pick some people to take charge of Minghai Academy's security. How's the selection going?" Ye Xiao asked Zhao Dapeng.

Zhao Dapeng immediately responded, "Brother Xiao, I've selected them. There are seventy-two of them, each a former soldier with excellent skills. They could be considered Heavenly Gate's elite team."

Hearing that there were seventy-two, twelve more than he had originally anticipated, Ye Xiao was very pleased. Then looking at Zhao Dapeng, he smiled and said, "Excellent. Once Zhou Hao returns, all these people will be under his command. Have Zhou Hao train them. What I want is experts who can take on ten opponents without falling behind."

Everyone was slightly surprised upon hearing Ye Xiao's words—an expert who could take on ten.

"Brother Xiao, shouldn't these people have a unique designation?" Zhao Dapeng said, "I assume they shouldn't be just part of any department."

"Their current responsibility is to protect my girlfriends, but their future missions will also be the most challenging. I want them to become a blade serving Heavenly Gate, a presence that strikes fear in everyone," Ye Xiao said seriously. "Let's call them the Blood Blade Team. Zhou Hao will be the team captain. When I have time, I and Zhou Hao will meet with these people."

Zhao Dapeng nodded and said, "Yes, Brother Xiao."

Whether it's a corporate society or attempting to establish a peak force, a trump card troop is necessary — and this troop may not be the largest in number, but it must be the most elite.

Clearly, Blood Blade was set to become the sharp dagger in Ye Xiao's hands, a blade that should be invincible wherever it struck.

Then, Ye Xiao briefly inquired about the current situation with the company's development. Soon after, Huang Feng came in.

Compared to company matters, Ye Xiao was more interested in entertainment venues.
