the followers were terrified of her to the point that they didn't even have the courage to look at her.At this time, an old man in blue stepped forward and said to the red shadow: "Master, we've been...Munehisa Momonoki bowed respectfully and said, "Father, I know that boy will do everything he can to find the hostages. So, I have placed her on Merfolk Island. Even if he searches every corner of Kyoto, he won't be able to find her."

Maboroshi nodded slightly: "Not bad, that makes me feel more at ease."

"Mermaid Island"

Upon receiving this news, Ye Bufan felt a surge of joy in his heart. Although he still didn't know where Mermaid Island was, he had at least made some progress.

Thoughts raced, true energy instantly breaking through the acupoints sealed by Genbu's grip.

How can one find Mermaid Island His first thought was to kidnap someone from the Palace Residence and use a soul-searching technique to ask them.

After all, this is the old nest of the Gongben family. Once you touch anyone from the Gongben family, regardless of the outcome, it's very likely to attract their attention. If you have to move places then things will be troublesome.

It seems I'll have to look for clues outside. Thinking this, he vanished from the room in a flash and left the Hongo residence.

He didn't have many acquaintances in Kyoto, so after leaving his home, he headed straight for the Chikugi family.

It is already midnight, and Kyoto has become much quieter than it was during the day.

In her room, Liu Yun sat in meditation with her eyes closed.

Suddenly, she was startled and opened her eyes wide. She saw a figure in the room, it was Ye Bufan.

"Master, why have you come"

Liu Yun was shocked. He knew the Qianmu family's defenses were extremely tight, and it was almost impossible to get in without making a sound.

Then she carefully checked outside the room again, confirming that no one was there before returning and asking, "Master, what are your orders"

Ye Bufan asked, "How is it going Have there been any news about my mother"

"Not yet," Liu Yun said. "I just got back to the Qianmu family and dare not make too much movement, afraid of arousing those people's suspicion."

"As of now, we haven't found any valuable leads."

Ye Bufan didn't say anything, he knew this was normal. If it were that easy to find, it would raise suspicion.

"Do you know where Merfolk Island is"

"Merfolk Island" Liu Yun pondered. "I've lived in the Great Dog Country for so long, and I've never heard of Merfolk Island."

"Don't you even know"

Ye Bufan frowned, it seemed that this Mermaid Island wasn't very famous.

Liu Yun said: "This place was originally an archipelago, with hundreds or thousands of large and small islands. I've only heard of a few famous ones, the rest are not very clear to me."

“

Ye Bufan asked, "Do you have a map here Look it up and see where Mermaid Island is."

"The map exists."

Liu Yun quickly brought out a map, and the two of them carefully looked it over, but they ultimately couldn't find any information related to Mermaid Island.

Ye Bufan had some doubts in his heart. What was going on Could it be that Miyamoto Kiyoshi had deceived him It didn't seem likely, they couldn't have found out that he used his divine sense to probe.

Liu Yun said, "Master, the islands of the Great Dog Country are truly too numerous. The maps only record some well-known large islands, and there are many unnamed reefs."

Perhaps the "Mermaid Island" you're referring to is just a folk name and hasn't been officially mapped.

Ye Bufan thought about it and realized there was actually a possibility. He then asked, "Is there any way to find this mermaid island According to what I've heard, my mother might be kept there."

To find this unnamed island, the best way is to find those who frequently work at sea.

"While the Chimu family's main business is manufacturing and they are not involved in marine fisheries, they don't know much about that area."

"Which family knows most about this" Ye Bufan asked.

"The Watanabe family," Liu Yun said. "The Watanabe family originally started with marine fisheries, all their industries are centered on the sea. They should be very familiar with islands of all sizes."

"Understood."

Ye Bufan finished speaking and walked out the door.

"Master, where are you going If not, tomorrow I'll think of a way to find out some information from the Watanabe family."

"No need, you're being reckless now and might attract attention. I'll handle this myself."

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared from the room.

Coming to the Qian Mu residence, Ye Bufan strolled along the street.

Since he needed information from the Watanabe family, his first thought was Watanabe Keiko. As the eldest daughter of the family, gathering some information shouldn't be difficult.

But now that it's late at night, going to the Watanabe house would be inappropriate. Watanabe Yuki also wouldn't be convenient to query information, and she might even arouse suspicion from others.

He did not act rashly. Instead, he found a deserted place and sat cross-legged in meditation, waiting to act when dawn broke.

The Palace Home's side, Ye Bufan left for not long the monitoring room found something was wrong, immediately to Miyamoto Takehito reported.

"What, ran away again"

Mikoto's face darkened with anger. What had this troublemaker gone and done now Didn't he think he'd caused the Miyamoto family enough trouble already

(To be continued, please turn the page)

If Ye Bufan is found by the three major families, he will be in great danger. Then no one will be able to treat his father's illness.

"Find it for me quickly, and report to me immediately once found."

Thus, the entire Gongben family set out in search of Ye Bufan's whereabouts throughout Kyoto.

It's a pity that as a martial saint-level expert, if Ye Bufan didn't want to be exposed, how could they possibly find him They searched all night but found nothing.

There was no other way, Mokuzu Kagemoto could only relent. After all, he had hostages in his hands, and the other party would surely return when the three days were up.

The next day, at the Watanabe household, Watanabe Keiko sat listlessly in her room.

For so many years, she had never liked a man. This time, she finally met someone she liked, but he turned out to be the enemy of her entire family.

He not only destroyed Watanabe Gankyo but also caused his family to suffer heavy losses. This hatred is probably impossible to resolve.

Just as she was frowning in thought, her phone in her pocket rang.

She wasn't in the mood to answer the phone at first, but when she casually glanced at the screen and saw the name "Ye Jun," she immediately felt a surge of energy, grabbed the phone, and pressed the answer button.

Yesterday at the auction, she was bored so she put her phone number into Ye Bufan's phone, and also saved his number.

"Ye Jun, where are you Are you okay"

Due to her excitement, Watanabe Yui's voice trembled slightly.

"I'm doing well, is there something you can help me with"

"Sure, go ahead."

Kyouka Watanabe's heart was torn. Although she knew the other party was an enemy of her family, she couldn't control herself and immediately agreed.

"Are you free to come out Let's meet and talk."

Being a serious matter, Ye Bufan did not quite believe in this kind of electronic product.

With the power of a few prominent families, they might even have tapped into my phone line. If they found out I had information about Mermaid Island, it would be trouble. They could move my mother to a new location before I could warn her.

"Okay, I'll call you when I get out."

Watanabe Keiko hung up the phone, took a moment to calm herself, put on a nonchalant expression, and then drove away from the Watanabe house alone.

Once outside, making sure no one was following him, he took out his phone and called Ye Bufan.

(The End)marry himBefore he could even recover, Song Yaoji again fired off a barrage of accusations: "My father proposed to you, what qualifications do you have to refuse What right do you have to refuse Am I...
