re covered in ants. They were everywhere!These ants are several times larger than ordinary ants. What's most frightening is that the surrounding forest is teeming with them, like a thick black carpet...Tao Wei's old face flushed red, like pig liver, and he angrily said: "What do you know This is Master Ma Jiu."

"Just a gang leader You look scared out of your wits," Ye Bufan said dismissively.

At this moment, Master Ma got up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand, and said fiercely: "Boy, your skills are indeed good, but let me tell you, you can't afford to mess with the forces behind Master Ma!"

"Kneel before me now, if you still can, or you and your friends will die!"

"There's someone pulling the strings, isn't there" Ye Bufan sneered. "Well, don't say I'm not giving you a chance. Now call everyone you can and bring them here."

He was going to have a final showdown with Master Ma Jiu today, he had to bring this guy to heel or else his family and friends would be in trouble later.

So he didn't choose to leave, but instead pulled up a chair and sat down beside her.

"Kid, you've got guts. You better watch out."

Ma Jiuye said as he took out his phone and dialed a number.

After the call connected, a low voice came from the other end: "Xiao Jiu, is there anything important so late"

Although separated by a phone call, Master Ma's expression instantly became extremely respectful, "Boss, there has been some trouble at Ye Weiyang's side. I was trashed by a kid here."

"You can't even handle such a small matter" the voice on the other end of the phone said with dissatisfaction.

Master Ma said, "Boss, he's too skilled. None of us are a match for him. And he's waiting here, saying he wants to see you."

A bunch of useless things, wait for me, I'm coming right over!

After he finished speaking, < >he hung up the phone with a click.

"Ma Jiuye turned back with a sinister expression and said, "Kid, I tell you, forget about the He family, even the Jade Emperor can't save you this time."

Ye Bufan raised his leg and kicked him to the ground: "From now on, you have no right to speak to me standing up."

"Boy, are you looking for death..."

Master Ma's face flushed red, as if blood was about to drip from it at any moment. He had ruled the underground world of Jiangnan for so many years, when had he ever been humiliated like this before

Ye Bufan said in a cold voice, "Will you kneel or not If you don't kneel, I will cripple you now!"

If it wasn't for him being there today, Han Shuai and the others would have been in a terrible situation. He wouldn't hesitate to deal with anyone who threatens his friends.

"You..."

Even though Master Ma was gnashing his teeth in fury, for the sake of preserving his lifelong cultivation, he could only endure the humiliation and kneel straight beside Tao Wei and the others.

Just now he made Tao Wei and the others kneel down to speak, now he himself has fallen to such a state.

Though he felt wronged, the man knew that when under someone else's roof, one must be humble. Faced with such a formidable young person, he could only swallow his resentment for now.

In his heart, he secretly vowed to make this kid's life miserable when his boss arrived. He would ensure the kid couldn't live nor die in peace.

Seeing the venerable Master Ma kneeling before them alongside himself, Tao Wei and his two companions felt a mixture of emotions.

They had never taken Ye Bufan, the penniless kid, seriously. But just now they knelt before Master Ma Jiu, and now Master Ma Jiu is kneeling before Ye Bufan. This gap left them with an indescribable feeling of loss in their hearts.

"Listen up, kid. Don't get cocky. Just wait and see what happens when Master Jiu arrives with his back-up. You're toast."

Although the three of them didn't speak, they all thought the same thing: it seemed like only if Master Ma crippled Ye Bufan could they regain some face and feel better.

Although he had seen Ye Bufan's skills, Han Shua was still a little worried. He came to his ear and whispered: "Third brother, I heard that the background behind Master Ma Jiu is extremely powerful."

"A wise man avoids immediate losses. Maybe we should just leave here for now and let my father figure out a solution later."

Ye Bufan knew that the matter of today had to be resolved, otherwise it would bring unnecessary trouble to his relatives and friends in the future.

He said, "Second brother, why don't you take your sister-in-law and leave first I can stay here by myself."

"That's impossible, we're brothers who share both the joys and sorrows. I can't just leave you here alone." Han Shuai turned to Shi Yuting and said, "Yuting, go back first. I'll find you when things are settled."

Shi Yuting said in a firm tone, "That's impossible. We face difficulties together, and if we have to die, we die together. I can't leave you behind."

"Ye Bufan let out a chuckle: "Why are you making such a fuss like it's the end of the world Don't worry, with me here, nothing will happen."

Han Shuai and Shi Yuting both nodded. They didn't completely believe Ye Bufan's words, but with a shared attitude of facing hardship together, they decided to stay regardless.

But Huang Xiaoli obviously didn't think so. She stepped forward and said, "Yuting, if you don't leave, I'll go first."

"Alright, you should go back now."

A flicker of disappointment crossed Shi Yuting's eyes, but she didn't say anything.

Huang Xiaoli didn't say a word and ran out of the private room as if escaping.

"What a thing," Han Shuai spat.

Today's trouble was all caused by Huang Xiaoli. She caused more trouble than anyone else, but when it came time to run away, she was the fastest of them all.

Ye Bufan didn't care at all. Huang Xiaoli was just a woman who only cared about status and power, and he didn't expect her to do anything.

He said to Shi Yuting, "Sister-in-law, I heard that you're a talented woman from the Finance Department of Jiangnan University. Have you found a good place to work now"

When Ye Bufan called her sister-in-law, Shi Yuting's cheeks flushed slightly. However, she didn't say anything and instead reached out to hold Han Shuais hand.

After all that has happened, she now knows what to choose.

"Don't listen to Han Shuai talk nonsense, I'm not some kind of talented woman." She said, "The job market for college graduates is getting tougher and tougher now, and I haven't found a suitable job yet."

"Great, could you come help me then!"

Ye Bufan gave a brief introduction to the situation at Zui Jiangnan Restaurant, then said, “I’m not good at managing restaurants. The current manager is also temporary. If my sister-in-law could come over and help me, it would be the most suitable.”

"Well, of course." Shi Yuting hesitated and said, "But I just graduated. It's not quite suitable to be a general manager directly, is it Or should I start from the bottom up"

Ye Bufan said: "I believe in my second brother's judgment. He chose the right person, so you should just take over the whole restaurant."

When Shi Yuting took Han Shuai's hand, Han Shuai was overjoyed. He said: "Third brother, you are right. Whether it's a tavern or a group company, Yuting can handle it well. Otherwise, how could she be my wife"

Shi Yuting glared at him fiercely: "Don't talk nonsense! Who is your wife"

Han Shuai said with a smile, "Isn't this something that was bound to happen"

Just then, hurried footsteps sounded outside, followed by dozens of men in black who burst into the private room.

Although these people were all dressed in traditional martial arts uniforms, they emanated an extremely powerful aura from head to toe. Any one of them pulled out would not be inferior to a Leopard's level.

Seeing the reinforcements arrive, Master Ma was filled with excitement. His time for revenge had finally come.

Even Tao Wei and the others felt a surge of emotion. They could accept being bullied by Ma Jiuye, but they couldn't accept being trampled on by Ye Bufan.

So they all secretly hoped that Ma Jiuyé's boss would give Ye Bufan a severe reprimand.uldn't possibly!"Su Ling's cheeks instantly flushed crimson, as if they were about to bleed.Although she had crossed the final threshold with Ye Bufan, she was ultimately a woman who had never been a...
