Jaw-Dropping Son-in-Law

Ye Fan merely waved off Huangniu's reminders and signaled that he knew what he ought to do.

At the sight of his nonchalant front, Huangniu rolled its eyes. “As if it'd kill him to not act cool for once.”

After rambling on for a bit, it, too, took its leave.

Before it made its exit, though, Huangniu took one last glance at Ye Fan and muttered under its breath, “You're on your own, man.”

King Folo and the others caught up with Ye Fan as soon as Huangniu was gone.

“Mr. Chu, Huangniu has uncanny skills, so why didn't you try to keep it here? Wouldn't it bolster our strength by doing that?” King Folo asked puzzledly.

Ye Fan shook his head and laughed. “This stupid calf is even less dependable than you guys. It's wishful thinking on your side to hope it would put its life on the line to help me. In fact, it's a miracle that it even agreed to help me protect Jiangdong.”

Knowing Huangniu's personality well and considering the nature of their relationship, Ye Fan was aware that Huangniu might not give him its all even when promised rewards in return.

He reckoned that it might only demonstrate a token amount of effort, so he might be better off relying on himself.

Notably, through his meeting with Huangniu, Ye Fan did learn some intel of value.

Owing to the attack that the Chu Sect had launched against China, he had no doubt that the bulk of Mount Chumen's forces would be away on deployment.

It meant that the Chu Sect itself would be doubtlessly vulnerable as of then.

Thus, he could seize the opportunity to strike at the heart of their stronghold.

Before doing so, however, Ye Fan still had some other preparations to make.

The thought of that made him turn to regard King Folo and the others. “Having ventured around the martial arts world for many years, the three of you must be considerably connected. I suppose you must know some people here.”

King Folo reacted in surprise as he did not understand what Ye Fan was hinting at.

Could it be that he wants us to go out and recruit others to lend him their strength in the upcoming battle?

“Though that may be true, the strongest among them are Grandmasters at most. As such, I doubt their addition would be very impactful,” he replied.

To his surprise, Ye Fan responded smilingly, “A Grandmaster would be more than enough. In any case, reach out to them first, the three of you. Look for those who are distinguished and influential, for there are some things I need to learn from them.”
