The Whole World Knows That the Crown Prince Loves Her

The man seemed to assume that Huang Quan was helpless, so he turned his attention to the young man standing beside her and asked, “Have you taken over the task I requested?”

Upon hearing this, the young man quickly approached and replied, “Master Xu, I’m ready to take on the task.”

Huang Quan was astonished. This man not only attempted to steal her money but also seemed intent on taking her life. This was beyond audacious!

Previously, the man would have haggled with the young man, asking him to beg multiple times before finally giving him the money. However, today, having obtained two high-grade elixirs and soon to receive twelve million in his account, the man was in a good mood and didn’t give the young man a hard time. He readily handed over a hundred coins.

The young man expressed his gratitude for the money and retreated to the side.

“Move along. Don’t block the way,” the man ordered.

“Yes, yes, yes,” the young man complied and moved to the side. When he reached a certain distance, he gazed at Huang Quan with sympathy and discreetly indicated with his eyes, “This man is ruthless. Give him the money.”

“The most important thing is life. Money is useless if you lose your life,” the young man stated, concerned about her safety.

Huang Quan glanced at the young man but didn’t respond. She turned her attention back to the man, about to confront him. However, at that moment, the man who had been robbed of the elixir stood before her and confronted the thief with a menacing expression.

“Xu San, my master gave me the money to make a purchase. You stole my master’s belongings, and now you’re after my master’s money. Do you really think you’re in charge of this black market?” the man with an angry expression exclaimed.

“I don’t manage the black market,” Xu San responded, looking at the irate young man with a mocking smile. “Young Master Ye, I may not manage the black market, but I do have things worth robbing. What can you do to me?”

“Qin Yuan is dead. How dare you be so arrogant?” Young Master Ye questioned indignantly. “Do you think my Ye family won’t deal with you?”

“That’s not necessarily true,” Xu San said with a sly grin. “Your Ye family didn’t dare to touch me before because of the Prime Minister. Now that the Prime Minister is gone, your Ye family may feel emboldened. However, let me remind you, Young Master Ye, that the eldest young master of the Qin family is on his way back. Moreover, the Qin family still has their Xuanling Master. If the Ye family wants to confront us, they should consider whether they have the ability.”

“You!” Young Master Ye’s face flushed with anger, rendering him speechless for a moment.

“What’s all the commotion about, Third Brother?” A group of six individuals approached from a distance. One of the men took the lead and approached Xu San. The other five stood beside Xu San and began to gently push Young Master Ye. The man leading them had a height and presence that dwarfed Xu San as he asked Young Master Ye with a sly smile, “Well, well, if it isn’t Master Ye? Why are you so furious?”

“Boss,” Xu San eagerly presented the porcelain bottle to the man as though it was a precious treasure, “This is a remarkable item. The bone elixir can heal broken bones. It’s an invaluable find not available in the market.”

Young Master Ye sneered and retorted, “It’s not like you have nothing. You were so confident in snatching what I bought and didn’t even mention what you took. Yet, you still had the audacity to target the girl’s money. You’re nothing but a bunch of animals!”

“Hey, what did you say? Say it again!” The people around Xu San were offended, and they were ready to take action, but someone restrained them. The leader turned to the person who intervened and said, “Boss, individuals like this simply need a lesson.”

“Go ahead and give him a beating,” one of the men suggested.

“Wait a moment,” their leader said. Afterward, he turned his attention to Huang Quan, who was currently being shielded by Young Master Ye. He asked, “Did you sell this elixir?”
