At this moment, the expressions of the higher-ups of the Liu family changed slightly.

In fact, they were the same as Liu Wentian. They thought that Liu Wenlong invited Ye Feng into the meeting hall because of Liu Wenyuan.

But now, seeing Liu Wenlong’s attitude toward Ye Feng, it was not that simple.

Could it be that this young man had an unknown background?

Everyone looked at Ye Feng in shock.

Ye Feng’s expression was calm from the beginning to the end. He had a state of mind where he was neither happy for others nor sad for himself. “Third Martial Uncle is too polite. As a junior, even if I am reprimanded by the elders, it is only natural.”

His natural and unrestrained performance immediately won the favor of all the Liu family higher-ups.

Putting everything else aside, at least this kind of magnanimity was rare among the younger generation of the Liu family.

Liu Wenlong also sighed in his heart. His Seventh Brother had taken in a good disciple.

However, he was more concerned about the family’s precious treasure, so he asked again, “Mr. Ye, you said you have a way? What is it?”

“Third Martial Uncle, can you stop calling me Mr. Ye? It sounds awkward. You can just call me Xiao Feng.” Ye Feng had the attitude of a junior. It was like a spring breeze.

“Alright, Xiao Feng, tell me your plan first.” Liu Wenlong had a better impression of him, and his attitude became friendlier.

“I have a friend who is from the thief sect. He is very knowledgeable about theft techniques. You can ask him to check the ancestral hall. Perhaps he can find some clues,” Ye Feng explained his plan.

Liu Wenlong was a little disappointed. “To be honest, we have already invited a few experts of the thief sect to take a look, but they didn’t find any traces.”

“That only proves that they are not strong enough. You can let my friend try,” Ye Feng still insisted.

Liu Wenlong saw that he had already said this, so he couldn’t reject him. He nodded. “Then let your friend try it.”

Although he said that, he did not have much hope.

Ye Feng did not say anything else. He immediately called Ah Can.

Ah Can had already come to Jiangzuo to scout ahead of time. He did not know how the road was going.

“Mr. Ye, are you in Jiangzuo?”

The phone only rang once before it was picked up by Ah Can. He sounded a little out of breath, and it was unknown what kind of intense exercise he was doing.

“What are you doing?” Ye Feng was curious.

“I… I’m not doing anything…” Before he could finish, a woman’s voice came from the receiver. “Don’t stop. Why are you stopping?”

Immediately after, the sound of a slap was heard. Ah Can’s cursing voice could be heard. “Get lost. My boss is looking for me. I’ll stop here for today.”

After settling the matter on the other side, Ah Can’s flattering voice sounded again. “Haha, Mr. Ye, I… I’m learning English.”

Ye Feng could not be bothered to expose him. “Stop learning, hurry over to Liu family.”

“Okay, wait for me for ten minutes.”

Ah Can didn’t ask anything and hung up the phone.

Ten minutes later, someone came to the meeting hall to report that there was a shifty-looking guy outside who wanted to see Mr. Ye.

Liu Wenlong knew that Ye Feng’s friend had arrived, he immediately got someone to bring Ah Can over.

“Mr. Ye.” The moment Ah Can entered the door, he ran to Ye Feng with a flattering smile.

Ye Feng felt that he was a little embarrassing.

If it wasn’t for the fact that he needed to rely on his skills, he really didn’t want anyone to know that he had anything to do with this guy.

“Third Uncle, this is my friend, Gambling City’s King of Thieves, Ah Can.” He turned around and introduced Liu Wenlong.

Although Liu Wenlong was not interested in the so-called ‘King of Thieves’, since Ye Feng had introduced him, he did not dare to neglect it. He stood up and shook hands with Ah Can.

Ah Can seemed to have noticed the contempt in his eyes, and a sly look appeared on his face. “Master Liu, you have to take care of yourself.”

Liu Wenlong was stunned. “What do you mean?”

“A medicine is 30% poisonous. Although this Liuwei Dihuang pill is a Chinese patent medicine, you should try to eat as little as possible.”

As Ah Can spoke, he opened his palm and saw that a bottle of Liuwei Dihuang pills had appeared in his palm.

The others were confused.

However, Liu Wenlong’s expression changed. He hurriedly touched his pocket.

There was originally a bottle of Liuwei Dihuang pills in that pocket, but now it was gone.

When he looked at Ah Can again, his face was filled with shame, anger, and shock.

However, he didn’t dare to underestimate him anymore.

Ah Can had won Liu Wenlong’s respect with his strength.

Liu Wenlong didn’t hesitate and immediately led the group to the ancestral hall of the Liu family.

There was only a street between the Liu family’s ancestral hall and the Liu family’s old house.

It was also an architectural style from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, with carved beams and painted buildings.

The ancestral hall was dedicated to the ancestral tablets of the Liu family.

As there were people maintaining it daily, it was very clean inside.

“Stop!”

When the group of people reached the entrance of the ancestral hall, Ah Can suddenly raised his hand to stop them.

Although everyone did not know what he was going to do, they still stopped in their tracks.

Then, they saw Ah Can lying on the ground and sniffing, as if… like a dog.

Liu Wenlong and the other upper echelons of Liu family looked at Ye Feng in confusion.

Ye Feng also shrugged, indicating that ‘I don’t understand it either’.

Ah Can lay on the ground again and sniffed. He then clapped his hands and stood up. “It’s over. The scene has been destroyed by you. We can’t tell which footprints were left by the thief.”

Liu Wenlong’s heart tightened. “Is there any other way?”

“Where did you hide that fist technique?” Ah Can pondered for a moment before raising his head to ask.

Liu Wenlong immediately brought him to the back of the ancestral hall. There was a safe there. It was open, but it was empty.

Ah Can squatted down to check and couldn’t help but shake his head. “Are you guys crazy? Such a valuable thing was actually hidden in such a trashy safe. Who can this kind of trash safe defend against?”

His words were very impolite, and all the higher-ups of the Liu family were somewhat unhappy.

If it wasn’t for the fact that they had a favor to ask of someone, they would have really gone crazy.

“Why are you talking so much nonsense? Can we find any clues?” Ye Feng could not stand it anymore when he saw how pretentious this guy was.

Ah Can always liked to put on airs in front of others.

Only when he faced Ye Feng would he show a crafty and flattering expression. “Hehe, this little thief has some skills.”

“If someone else were to investigate, they would definitely not be able to find anything. But I’m different. I’m…”

“Stop bragging. Since you can investigate, then do it quickly. If you dare to talk nonsense again, watch how I deal with you.” Ye Feng did not want to listen to this guy’s bragging anymore. He directly threatened him.

Ah Can nodded cheekily and took out a paper bag from his pocket.

After opening the paper bag, there was an unknown white powder inside.
