Chapter 316: Unexpected Situation

Although he felt Ye Lin was a beast, based on the principle that "money not earned is a bastard," the driver still smiled and said against his conscience.

"Young man, missing out on you is that girl's loss! Let's go, I'll take you to a real good place!"

The driver changed direction and slammed on the gas.

Regarding where in which city there was entertainment for adults, local taxi drivers were basically as familiar as could be.

Before long, the driver delivered Ye Lin to the entrance of a vegetable market.

"Walk forward, turn left at the third intersection and walk to the end. Someone will stop you. Just say you're here to drink tea; that's the password."

The driver counted the tip Ye Lin gave him, smiling until his eyes disappeared.

"Thanks, brother!"

Ye Lin walked straight into the vegetable market and then turned into a small alley.

And just as the driver had said, as soon as he entered the alley, two men who looked like hoodlums came over and stopped him.

"Stop. Private property, not allowed in."

"Brother, I'm here to drink tea~"

Ye Lin very diligently took out two tips and stuffed them into the two men's hands. They were instantly happy when they saw this.

"You're quite savvy. First time here?" one of the men with a scorpion tattooed on his thumb asked with a smile.

"Yeah. Brother, is there anything fun you can introduce?"

"That depends on what you want to play. Women? Poker? Or... do you want to play with men?" The scorpion man revealed a meaningful smile.

"Men, forget it. I don't have the fetish of forcing men." Ye Lin refused hurriedly.

"It's fine if you don't. All kinds of people come here to play; I'm used to it." The scorpion man waved his hand.

"By the way, brother, You Daxia shouldn't allow this kind of thing, right? If I go in to play, will I get caught?" Ye Lin asked, looking scared.

"Caught? Don't worry. In Hucheng, who dares to come here to catch people? This is a place covered by Chen Wudi!" The scorpion man sneered.

"Chen Wudi? Who's that? Sounds very powerful!" Ye Lin looked surprised.

"You don't even know Chen Wudi?" The scorpion man's expression was like looking at an alien. "No, how did you live this long?"

"Hehe, I won't hide it from you, brother. I'm actually not a local of Hucheng; I'm here to rely on relatives." Ye Lin answered.

"No wonder! Chen Wudi, Chen Wuwei—you need to remember these two names. The Chen brothers in Hucheng are this!" The scorpion man held up his thumb.

"Oh? Are they really that powerful?" Ye Lin asked in surprise.

"Hmph! Of course! The Chen brothers in Hucheng, except for giving face to the Lin family and the Investigation Bureau, others have to respect them like gods when they see them! Besides having great influence, they are also very strong class-advancers themselves!" The scorpion man looked proud, as if he were the Chen brothers himself.

"So that's how it is!" Ye Lin nodded. He had a rough understanding of the distribution of forces in Hucheng. "Brother, to tell you the truth, I'm actually a class-advancer too! I wonder how I compare to the Chen brothers you mentioned?"

"You? Hahahaha!"

The scorpion man burst into laughter.

"Looking at you, you're at most ten or twenty years old. If you can reach Level 40 at your age, that's considered a natural talent. Chen Wuwei, the younger brother of the Chen brothers, was already Level 70 three years ago!"

"Level 70?" Hearing this, Ye Lin gasped on the spot, his eyes filled with shock. "It seems I was sitting in a well and looking at the sky!"

"Know it!" Seeing Ye Lin's deflated look, the scorpion man nodded with satisfaction. "Go in and play. Play with peace of mind, nothing will happen!"

"Thanks, brother, for pointing the way for me. I'll treat you to a drink when I have time!"

Ye Lin waved his hand and drilled straight into Hucheng's underground black market.

Ye Lin wandered around inside for a whole day. It had to be said that Hucheng's underground black market indeed had many more tricks than Qingcheng's.

For example, there was an arena inside. As long as you participated, regardless of win or loss, you would get a sum of money.

However, there was a requirement to compete in this arena: you had to be married and bring your wife.

Once you lost, the winner could do whatever they wanted to the loser's wife in front of the loser and all the audience.

Ye Lin scoffed at this behavior, so he spent most of the afternoon examining this arena with a critical eye.

But honestly, Ye Lin felt that the tickets for this arena were really expensive—1,400 per ticket, only good for one match. If a high-value one appeared occasionally, you had to pay extra, and tickets were even hard to come by.

When the sky turned completely dark, Ye Lin contacted Guo Qin and Bai Siyou. He pulled them into the same group chat to see what gains they had today. The first to respond was Bai Siyou.

"I went to Hucheng's Class-Advancer Guild and roughly understood the peak combat power of Hucheng's class-advancers. There are 9 people above Level 80, and the strongest seems to be Level 87."

"Well done! Knowing how strong Hucheng's peak combat power is, we'll have more confidence when we make a move!" Ye Lin was very satisfied with Bai Siyou's gains. "I have gains here too. Hucheng's forces are a bit like the Three Kingdoms, presenting a three-legged stance, consisting of the Chen brothers, the Lin family, and the Hucheng Investigation Bureau."

"Then we can only hope that half of the Origin Ancient Artifact isn't in the hands of the Hucheng Investigation Bureau," Bai Siyou said with some unease. If it were really in the hands of the Hucheng Investigation Bureau, they could only return empty-handed.

After all, standing behind the Hucheng Investigation Bureau was the You Daxia Human Emperor!

Attacking the Investigation Bureau was definitely a sign of being tired of living.

Even when Xie Hong, the head of the Xie family, went to Qingcheng, he only dared to control the people of the Investigation Bureau, but didn't dare to kill them openly. If he really did that, it would be equivalent to rebelling.

"Don't worry, it shouldn't be that unlucky. By the way, where's Guo Qin?"

Seeing that Guo Qin had been silent, Ye Lin directly @Guo Qin in the group, but he @-ed him four or five times in a row, and Guo Qin didn't react at all.

Ye Lin was a bit worried about this guy, so he called him directly.

"Hey? The temptation given by the wolf~ I sang a love song~ In the longing sky~ there is beautiful moonlight~"

The ringtone kept ringing, but no one answered. Just when Ye Lin thought Guo Qin had encountered some mishap, the call finally connected.

"Hello? Little boss? What's up?"

Guo Qin on the other end of the phone was panting, and there was also the sound of running fast in slippers. Ye Lin was dumbfounded on the spot.

"No, buddy? I asked you to scout for information, what the hell are you doing?"

"I am scouting for information! I am currently deep inside the Hucheng people to understand information!" Guo Qin said righteously.

"You damn!"

Ye Lin just wanted to scold Guo Qin, but the next second, a woman's exclamation suddenly came from the other end of the phone.

"It's over! My husband is back!"

"What?"

Guo Qin was instantly scared into a trembling voice, followed by a man's furious roar.

"Bitch! You dare to cheat on me! I'll skin you and this adulterer alive today! Chop you into pieces and feed you to the dogs!"

"Husband, it's a misunderstanding! Listen to my explanation, I was forced by him!"

"Brother, it's a misunderstanding! Listen to my explanation, I was seduced by her!"

After the woman and Guo Qin's voices sounded at the same time, the other end of the phone suddenly fell into an eerie silence, followed by an even more furious roar.

"I'll fuck your mother! Treating me like a fool, huh? All of you die!"

"You've been given face, haven't you? Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

Guo Qin's voice was somewhat disdainful, but the next second, his scream came through.

"Damn! A class-advancer? Don't! Brother, don't hit me! Don't hit me, brother, I know I was wrong!" ===== CHAPTER 317 =====
