les, each brandishing a steel pipe in their hands.A young man in his twenties, with a long scar across his face, running from the corner of his eye to his jaw, looked fierce and frightening."It's over..."That... isn't a very big deal," Mabuno Masaki chuckled, his smile becoming increasingly sinister. "Just hoping that after the treatment, it can help our head of the family break through to the Saintly Rank."

Ye Bufan's expression changed: "My God, this isn't a big deal. Do you think I'm a god"

"Well, aren't you a medical fairy And our master has been stuck at the peak of Heaven Stage for many years, with a profound foundation. He's just a little bit away from breaking through."

Momotaro smiled and said, "Our Momotaro family believes you have this ability. As long as you can help the head of the family break through, we will immediately return Ms. Changsun unharmed."

Ye Bufan inwardly sneered, this was writing a blank check. Little did they know he had already eavesdropped on the conversation between Gongben Mu Xiu and Gongben Lan Taiyi, knowing their plot inside out.

But he didn't mind, since he was going to play anyway, let's see who could outplay the other.

You're right, I can indeed help your master breakthrough. However, my conditions are also being added: 2 billion US dollars, not a single penny less.

In fact, he was very clear that the Miyamoto family's plan was to kill the donkey after unloading the mill. There was no chance they would give him any benefits, and they wouldn't even release Changsun Dongju.

But if you readily agree, it might make Genji suspicious. Only by demanding a lot and raising the stakes can you convince him.

As expected, when Ye Bufan agreed to her terms, Genjitsu's heart was filled with joy.

"Mr. Ye, 2 billion dollars is too much. Our Miyamoto family can't afford that much liquid capital. How about this 500 million dollars."

"1.5 billion dollars…"

"$800 million..."

Yè Búfán said, "1 billion US dollars, this is my bottom line."

"Deal, as long as you can heal our master's injuries and help him breakthrough to the Saint rank, we will immediately offer 1 billion US dollars with both hands."

Makoto Mōri said this with a sneer in his heart, hoping that you'll have the fortune to bloom by then.

"Well then, let's settle it like that. You rest up and regain your strength. I'll come find you once the herbs are gathered."

He finished speaking and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute."

Ye Bufan called out to Mabuchi Masaki, and immediately his eyes flashed with light as he used the Soul Capturing Technique.

Where is the mermaid island Even with the strength of the Watanabe family, they couldn't find it. I have to figure out where it is, even if it means rescuing Changsun Dongju in the end. Otherwise, it will become a knot in my heart.

"Tell me, where is Mermaid Island"

He asked the question.

(To be continued, please turn the page)

Although this guy doesn't seem to have much cultivation, he is a core figure in the Gongben family. He should know where the Mermaid Island is.

A flicker of uncertainty crossed Miyamoto Musashi's eyes as he said, "The fleet has already returned to port, thirty li east of Kyoto."

"Are we heading back" Ye Bufan's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately asked, "Do you mean the mermaid island is a boat"

Makoto Mōri said, "This is a private yacht owned by our Mōri family."

"Ugh..." Ye Bufan felt like cursing, "Who the hell came up with such a stupid name"

He never imagined that Merfolk Island was actually the name of a ship. No wonder he had searched almost every island in the Great Dog Country, even the Watanabe family's territory, and couldn't find Merfolk Island. It turned out to be just a ship.

However, recalling the situation at the time, Miyamoto Hideo said he had hidden Chūgoku in the Mermaid Island. Even if he searched all of Kyoto, he wouldn't be able to find her.

It seems the other party hid the person on the boat back then. Since they were on land, they couldn't find anyone and thus misled themselves, focusing their attention on the island instead.

But now that we know, it's too late. Searching for a cruise ship to rescue people is too time-consuming. We can only think of other ways later.

But finally figured out what was going on, he retracted the soul-suppressing technique with a thought, and casually erased Masamune Miyamoto's memory.

Kubo Makoto felt like her head spun for a moment, and then it returned to normal.

He didn't care, and patted his head with his hand. Perhaps he was dizzy from overworking these days.

"Mr. Ye, I'll go back first and you rest."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left the room.

Just as Momotsuki Makoto had left, Ye Bufan's phone rang. It was Watanabe Keiko calling.

The phone connected, and a voice full of apology came from the other end: "Ye Jun, I'm sorry. We've checked all the information about the entire island here, but we haven't found any trace of Mermaid Island."

"It's fine, I figured it out. It wasn't an island at all."

Ye Bufan briefly summarized the situation on Mermaid Island, "There's no need to look any further. I've already negotiated with the Miyamoto family."

"Kyou, this is the second thing I wanted to tell you," Yeko Watanabe said. "Just now, the Watanabe family received an invitation from the Miyamoto family. They want us to send a Saint Rank expert to help you treat Miyamoto Raita and then join forces to kill you after you're healed."

I guess they invited more than just our Watanabe family. The other major clans probably received invitations too.

Ye Bufan smiled slightly. The Gongben family really looked highly upon himself, inviting so many...

Hand.

It seems my sudden departure earlier has made them suspicious, thinking my actions aren't as simple as they appear.

"Watanabe Keiko asked, 'Yejun, are we going to agree or disagree' "

"Promise, of course you have to promise." Ye Bufan said, "Tell Lin Tianyu to keep pretending to be Watanabe Mitsuyo, and then follow my commands."

He had previously made Lin Tianyu impersonate Watanabe Mitsuyoshi for this very reason, and it was now coming in handy.

By then, if the other side has their own undercover agents, rescuing Changsun Dongju will be much easier. Otherwise, they'll be too cautious and it will cause a lot of trouble for themselves.

Then I see.

After Watanabe Keiko finished speaking, she hung up the phone. Ye Bufan also put away his phone and playfully glanced at several corners of the room.

Under his divine awareness, he could clearly see the several eavesdropping devices in the room. However, he had just cast a soundproof barrier, so the other party could only see him making a phone call but couldn't hear anything at all. He was sure they must be frantic by now.

In fact, that was exactly the case. Mokuzu Miyamoto sat in his room, watching Ye Bufan make a phone call but not being able to hear a single word. This filled him with immense anger.

He glared at the nearby Makoto Itou and angrily said, "What's going on Where did you get that eavesdropping device Why is it malfunctioning at a critical moment"

"Young Master, this is the best eavesdropping device. We tested it countless times and it always worked perfectly. Who knew it would suddenly malfunction now."

Mamoru Mabuchi was also very puzzled as to why several eavesdropping devices had collectively malfunctioned. They only worked again after the person on the other end of the line hung up.

Moriguchi said dismissively, "Forget it, let's not worry about it for now. He was going to die anyway."

Soon it was noon, and all the medicinal herbs that the Miyamoto family had purchased arrived.

Mabuchi Masaki came into Ye Bufan's room: "Mr. Ye, our medicinal materials are all ready, please lend us your hand."

Ye Bufan said, “As for my mother, she must be by my side when I treat her.”

Mamoru Kobayashi said, “Please rest assured, Ms. Changan is already on her way and will be here in half an hour. Would you like to take a look at the medicinal herbs now”

"First, bring me the herbs. I'll refine them and then treat your master."

"I beg you, Mr. Ye."

Mamoru Shimbo's attitude was very polite. He waved his hand outside, and immediately someone brought in the purchased medicinal herbs.

He arranged all the herbs and asked, "Mr. Ye, what do you think"
