Chapter 1674: The Goal

A few days later, at the Xiao family.

"What? I've been poisoned?"

Seeing Xiao Yifeng asked an old man below.

The old man nodded. "Yes, Young Master."

"Is there a cure?"

Seeing Xiao Yifeng asked again.

The old man fell silent for a moment. "There is a cure, but this method of detoxification requires the Bei Mingyuan family's supreme treasure."

Seeing Xiao Yifeng frowned slightly. "The Bei Mingyuan family's supreme treasure?"

The old man nodded. "Yes, only the Bei Mingyuan family's supreme treasure can completely cure the poison."

A hint of doubt flashed in Seeing Xiao Yifeng's eyes. "Are you sure?"

The old man nodded affirmatively. "I am sure."

Seeing Xiao Yifeng looked at the old man, a trace of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes. "Then do as you say."

At the same time, at the Bei Mingyuan family.

"What did you say? Our Bei Mingyuan family's supreme treasure has been stolen?"

Bei Mingyuan asked a guard below.

The guard nodded. "Yes, Young Master. This morning, we discovered that the secret chamber where the supreme treasure was stored was empty."

"What?"

Bei Mingyuan jumped to his feet. "You say the supreme treasure has been stolen?"

The guard nodded.

"Do you know who stole it?"

The guard shook his head. "I do not know."

"Investigate! Turn the earth upside down to find that thief for this Young Master!"

Bei Mingyuan shouted loudly.

The guard cupped his hands. "Yes, Young Master."

Then he quickly left the place.

Bei Mingyuan paced back and forth a few steps. "The supreme treasure has been stolen? Who could it be?"

At the same time, at the Xiao family.

"Seeing Xiao Yifeng, can you now have the poison in your body cured?"

Seeing Xiao Yifeng said to an old man below.

The old man hesitated for a moment, then spoke. "Yes."

Seeing Xiao Yifeng nodded. "Very well, then cure this Young Master of the poison immediately."

The old man responded and then began to cure Seeing Xiao Yifeng of the poison.

Half an hour later, the old man stopped, his head covered in sweat.

"Is it done?"

Seeing Xiao Yifeng asked.

The old man nodded. "It is done, Young Master."

Seeing Xiao Yifeng breathed a sigh of relief. "Finally done, now I can rest assured."

However, he did not notice the cunning glint that flashed in the old man's eyes.

At the same time, in the Bei Mingyuan family's secret chamber, Bei Mingyuan paced back and forth, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes. "The supreme treasure has been stolen; what should be done now?"

Hei Yue stood quietly to the side, his gaze profound, making it difficult to see through.

"Hei Yue, tell me, which bastard did this?"

Bei Mingyuan asked irritably.

Hei Yue shook his head slightly. "This subordinate cannot determine it for the moment, but what is certain is that this must have been premeditated."

Bei Mingyuan frowned tightly. "Premeditated? What do you mean?"

Hei Yue's gaze flickered slightly. "Someone wants to provoke a conflict between us and the Xiao family."

Bei Mingyuan stopped abruptly, a flash of cold light passing through his eyes. "The Xiao family?"

Hei Yue nodded slightly. "Except for the Xiao family, no one else would do this."

Bei Mingyuan fell silent for a moment, then spoke. "Then what should we do?"

Hei Yue looked at Bei Mingyuan. "Do not startle the snake for now; we must investigate all of this clearly."

Bei Mingyuan nodded slightly. "Very well, then do as you say."

At the same time, at the Xiao family.

Seeing Xiao Yifeng stood in the courtyard, a hint of triumph in his eyes. "The Bei Mingyuan family's supreme treasure is now this Young Master's."

He laughed loudly at the sky, his laughter shaking the surrounding leaves so they rustled.

"Next, it is time to completely destroy the Bei Mingyuan family."

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Seeing Xiao Yifeng's eyes, and a faint smile rose on his lips. He did not know that all of this was only just beginning...

Bei Mingyuan family, the assembly hall.

"What did you say? The supreme treasure was snatched away by Seeing Xiao Yifeng?"

Bei Mingyuan looked down at the guards below, his brows furrowed tightly.

"Yes, Young Master."

The guard lowered his head, daring not to look at Bei Mingyuan.

"Our people were all outmaneuvered by Seeing Xiao Yifeng; he must have planned this long ago."

Hei Yue spoke up.

Bei Mingyuan said nothing, merely pacing back and forth, a flash of cold light passing through his eyes. "This Seeing Xiao Yifeng is actually so cunning."

"Then what shall we do?"

Hei Yue looked at Bei Mingyuan, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.

Bei Mingyuan stopped in his tracks and looked at Hei Yue. "We are not to seek out Seeing Xiao Yifeng to settle the score now; we must make him come to us of his own accord."

"Make him come to us of his own accord?"

Hei Yue asked, somewhat puzzled.

A faint smile curled at the corners of Bei Mingyuan's lips. "Yes, does Seeing Xiao Yifeng not wish to contend with us? Then we shall make him know that there is only one consequence for offending our Bei Ming family!"

A hint of confusion flashed in Hei Yue's eyes, but he quickly understood. "You intend to..."

Bei Mingyuan said nothing, merely nodding slightly.

Xiao family, rear garden.

"Hmm? Have Bei Mingyuan and the others ceased their movements?"

Seeing Xiao Yifeng looked at the intelligence in his hand, his brows furrowing slightly.

"Yes, they seem neither anxious nor impatient regarding our supreme treasure."

The subordinate spoke up.

A hint of confusion flashed in Seeing Xiao Yifeng's eyes. "This is not like the style of the Bei Ming family."

The subordinate nodded. "Indeed, I also find it strange."

"But it matters not; we will soon make them reveal their true forms."

A faint smile curled at the corners of Seeing Xiao Yifeng's lips. He decided not to startle the snake for now; he would let the people of the Bei Ming family completely lower their guard, and then strike them down in one blow!

Bei Ming family, secret chamber.

"Still have not found the supreme treasure?"

Bei Mingyuan looked down at the guards below, his brows furrowed tightly.

The guard shook his head. "Yes, Young Master, the supreme treasure has still not been found."

Bei Mingyuan sighed. "Forget it; even if we search, we cannot find it. We can only plan for the long term."

The guard acknowledged with a sound and was about to withdraw.
