Xiaonan's attacks were fierce, and what was more lethal was that she always aimed at Ye Xiao's weakest points. Naturally, Ye Xiao did not want to hurt Xiaonan; such a beautiful woman— if he accidentally hurt her, that would truly be a sin!

Ye Xiao moved swiftly and nimbly dodged Xiaonan's repeated attacks.

"Fire Saber!" Seeing that she could not touch Ye Xiao even after numerous rounds, Xiaonan, in desperation, quickly circulated her True Qi. Flames appeared in her right hand, enveloping her originally creamy white delicate hand in a faint fiery glow. At first glance, it looked like a flaming blade chopping directly at Ye Xiao!

Ye Xiao had seen countless Martial Arts techniques, so he immediately recognized this as the Yellow Rank Martial Arts "Fire Saber," which when mastered could slice iron as though it were mud—extremely fierce. He hadn't expected Xiaonan to know such Martial Arts!

Could Xiaonan's background be special? Otherwise, how could she possibly know such Martial Arts at her young age? If the Yellow Rank Martial Arts had to be classified into low, mid, and upper levels, then "Fire Saber" was almost at the upper level!

If Ye Xiao were still at Yellow Rank, even at the Peak of Yellow Rank, he definitely would not dare to take it head-on. However, now Ye Xiao was at Xuan Rank, and after fighting with Xiaonan for over a dozen rounds, he felt it was about time. Thus, with a flick of his body, he suddenly appeared right in front of Xiaonan. Upon seeing Ye Xiao up close, Xiaonan was overjoyed, and the "Fire Saber" went straight for Ye Xiao's neck!

Ye Xiao ignored this, and Xiaonan, more elated, gathered all her strength to strike directly at Ye Xiao's neck. However, at that moment, Ye Xiao suddenly disappeared from Xiaonan's view!

What?

Xiaonan's "Fire Saber" struck empty air, and she froze on the spot. But, at that moment, a hand suddenly wrapped around Xiaonan's slender waist. Xiaonan instinctively tried to dodge, but just then, she was swept off her feet by that hand as Ye Xiao suddenly jumped, carrying her into the air a dozen meters high!

In midair, Ye Xiao leaned close to Xiaonan's ear, his breath warm, and smilingly said to her, "As I said, if you lose, you have to give your body and mind to me. You won't go back on your word, will you!"

Xiaonan blushed deeply; although she was well-known at school, she was a very traditional woman. For eighteen years, no man had ever gotten so close to her. Flustered and embarrassed, she struggled in mid-air, saying, "Damn Ye Xiao, let me go, rotten Ye Xiao!"

At this moment, Xiaonan no longer knew what she was saying; she wanted to struggle free, but Ye Xiao didn't give her the chance, and his strength seemed endless, far beyond what she could match. Xiaonan also wondered about her own strength, already in the later stage of Yellow Rank; what level of strength did Ye Xiao possess exactly.

"Let me go, or I'll beat you to death!" Xiaonan continued shouting loudly!

Ye Xiao chuckled, his mouth still close to her ear, saying, "Since you wish so much for me to let go, then as you wish!"

Xiaonan felt a tingling sensation in her ear, spreading rapidly throughout her body, as if her entire body had been anesthetized. Thus, when Ye Xiao suddenly let go, Xiaonan forgot to circulate her True Qi and fell from the air!

"Ah…" Xiaonan's body rapidly descended, the wind howling in her ears!

Seeing that Xiaonan had not circulated her True Qi, Ye Xiao immediately smiled bitterly. Then, he plunged down, swooping to the ground just in time to catch the falling Xiaonan!

Having been jolted by the sudden drop, Xiaonan was startled and closed her eyes!

After all, Xiaonan was a girl, no matter how strong she appeared on the outside, she was still a girl!

Held by Ye Xiao, they stood still. Xiaonan slowly opened her eyes, not really wanting to because she could already feel the pose they were in, which was hard for the always proud Xiaonan to accept!

Nevertheless, Xiaonan opened her eyes, and when she did, she found that Ye Xiao was not looking at her face. Yet, in that instant, Xiaonan felt both embarrassed and indignant!

Due to the fight and being hoisted into the air followed by the rapid drop, somehow, one of the buttons on Xiaonan's blouse had come undone at some point, exposing her fair skin. And at this moment, Ye Xiao was staring greedily with a crude and shameless look!

Immediately, Xiaonan jumped down from Ye Xiao's body, glaring at him; clearly, she was very upset about Ye Xiao's disgraceful behavior.

"You shameless rogue!" Xiaonan angrily glared at Ye Xiao!

Ye Xiao smiled slightly, saying, "I was just looking at my winnings!"

"That's mine!" Xiaonan blurted out loudly, but after saying it, she felt her words were somewhat improper—it was her chest, after all. Saying it like this seemed a bit…

Ye Xiao even more innocently said, "But that was the bet, you lost, naturally, it belongs to me. Boss Guan wouldn't renege, would she!"

"You…" Xiaonan's face turned crimson, not sure whether she was angry at Ye Xiao, or embarrassed about him seeing her chest!

"Now that the fight is over, I think we need to sit down and have a talk!" Ye Xiao said with a smile!

Xiaonan snorted, saying, "What's there to talk about!"

"Of course, about some issues concerning Minghai Academy. Oh right, now that you belong to me, your subordinates are naturally mine as well, is that okay?" Ye Xiao chuckled!

Xiaonan immediately said angrily, "In your dreams, and remember, I never agreed to that bet, so don't delude yourself!"

Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "If you don't want to talk, fine. But if you're unwilling, just one phone call from me and those under you might have a rough time, because there's no way you can get back and help them!"

"Shameless!" Guan Xiaonan angrily exclaimed!

Ye Xiao suddenly smiled and said, "Don't be mad, everything can be discussed, it just depends on whether you want to discuss it or not!"

Guan Xiaonan thought for a moment and then headed straight for the pavilion. Seeing this, Ye Xiao's face brightened with a smile, and he quickly walked towards the pavilion.

They took their seats.

Ye Xiao chuckled as he looked at Guan Xiaonan.

Guan Xiaonan glared at Ye Xiao.

After about ten seconds, Ye Xiao smiled and said, "Your button is still undone!"

Only then did Guan Xiaonan realize that the button that had been undone was indeed still unfastened. Her cheeks flushed a little as she hurriedly fastened her button!

Then, Ye Xiao said, "That was just a joke, don't take it seriously!"

"A joke?" Guan Xiaonan, slightly startled by Ye Xiao's words, was unsure what the joke Ye Xiao was referring to was about!

Ye Xiao said, "It's about that bet, I was just speaking off the cuff, just kidding around, don't take it seriously."

Guan Xiaonan initially thought Ye Xiao was shameless, but suddenly, Ye Xiao said it was just a joke and he didn't mean it. For some reason, Guan Xiaonan felt a hollow feeling inside!

"Why?" Seeing a hint of disappointment flash across Guan Xiaonan's face, Ye Xiao smiled and said, "Don't tell me you hoped it wasn't a joke?"

"Hmph, of course I hoped it was!" Guan Xiaonan stubbornly said.

Ye Xiao smiled slightly, then said to Guan Xiaonan, "Let's talk about more serious matters. Zhan Bo, Weii Yang, Sun Yuze, they are all my friends. Their only goal is to gather all the people from Minghai Academy to form an information network. Therefore, you must hand over your influence!"

"Why should I, just because of those three? I really don't consider them a threat, try not to help them if you can!" Guan Xiaonan said defiantly!

Currently, the only person Guan Xiaonan feared in this school was Ye Xiao, because she simply couldn't defeat him!

Ye Xiao just laughed and said, "Can't do!"

Guan Xiaonan was instantly annoyed and said, "Things are just fine as they are now. Why must it be done that way!"

"That's my sentiment as well!" Ye Xiao said with a smile.

"It seems you're the mastermind behind this!" Guan Xiaonan said!

Ye Xiao replied, "You're really smart!"

Guan Xiaonan said, "I don't understand, why must you do this in Minghai Academy? What's in it for you? The people at Minghai Academy are all students, do you really expect these students to provide you with any valuable information?"

"That's not something to worry about now. What we need to do now is to establish our own territory within Minghai Academy."

"Do you think the high-grade Xiong Tao will agree?" Guan Xiaonan thought it over and eventually brought up Xiong Tao. Although she never bothered to interact with Xiong Tao and he didn't dare provoke her, Xiong Tao was a well-known figure in the school!

Ye Xiao slowly stood up and said, "What I want to do, one Xiong Tao cannot stop!"

Guan Xiaonan truly did not want to hand over the people she had raised herself.

"How about we make a bet?" Guan Xiaonan said.

Ye Xiao smiled and asked, "What bet?"

"If you can complete this task within three days, I will dissolve my group!"

Guan Xiaonan making this decision was also extremely difficult for her!

However, Ye Xiao didn't immediately agree but shook his head.

Seeing Ye Xiao shake his head, Guan Xiaonan felt a surge of joy inside, thinking that Ye Xiao also lacked confidence!

However, just when Guan Xiaonan was feeling pleased, Ye Xiao said, "I want to change the bet!"
