Chapter 363: Yunlai Villa is under siege
Xie Hefan on the side also looked at Jiang Yimo with gratitude, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Then, the eldest lady asked some questions about the condition of the third manor master's legs. Jiang Yimo told the eldest lady and Xie Hefan the true condition of the third manor master's legs.
The mother and son were very much looking forward to Jiang Yimo being able to cure the third owner's leg, so that they would have one more person to protect Yunlai Villa.
That night, the moonlight was like silver frost, sprinkling in the house. Jiang Yimo had just finished her busy work in the space and was about to leave when she suddenly felt a dangerous breath approaching.
Her heart tightened and she immediately became alert. She was about to open the door to see what was happening outside, but she saw Feng Wuhen suddenly kick open her door and walked in with a serious expression.
"Momo, hide in your space quickly! Yunlai Villa has been surrounded by a group of people in black! And there are quite a few people coming." Feng Wuhen said anxiously.
Jiang Yimo was shocked and her eyes widened. "What? Yunlai Villa was surrounded? What happened? Where are the eldest lady and Xie Hefan and his sister now?"
"That Xie Hefan and his second uncle are already guarding the gate of the villa, and the eldest lady and the little girl should still be in their own yard." Feng Wuhen answered calmly.
"Let's go out and take a look." Jiang Yimo said, and she and Feng Wuhen walked to the gate, but the two did not show their faces, but hid in the dark to observe the situation.
"Xie Hefan, since you want us to evacuate our people, hand over the map leading to the swamp, and I will spare the lives of all of you in Yunlai Villa."
The leader of the group blocking the gate shouted loudly.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Where did the map come from?" Xie Hefan's eyes darkened and he immediately asked back.
"Don't play along with me. What I want is the map of the forbidden area in your Yunlai Villa."
The leading man in black knew that Xie Hefan would pretend, so he reiterated the purpose of his visit.
After these words came out, Xie Hefan sneered, "You are all capable people. If you want to go to our Yunlai Villa's forbidden area, just go. It's in the swamp deep in the peach blossom forest. There is no one guarding there anymore."
"We will definitely go to the forbidden area, but we also need a map of the swamp." said the leading man in black.
"There is no map!" Xie Hefan shouted.
"You are lying. Not only have we heard rumors about the forbidden map, we also sent people to that swamp. That swamp is full of dangers, with traps and poisonous gases everywhere. We sent dozens of people in, and only two people escaped. They told us the secrets hidden in it - we need a map to continue going in, so there must be a map in that swamp..." The leading man in black said with certainty.
"Oh! That is the forbidden area of our Yunlai Villa. Even if we have the map, we can't just give it to you."
Xie Hefan disagreed.
"Stop talking nonsense! If you don't hand it over today, none of you will be able to leave!"
The man in black shouted angrily, and the men behind him drew their weapons, ready to fight.
Xie Hefan was not afraid at all and sneered, "Okay, let's give it a try. However, you'd better think about the consequences first. Once a fight breaks out, you may not be able to defeat us."
The two sides were in a stalemate and the atmosphere became increasingly tense. In fact, the men in black had more people and were not afraid of anyone in Yunlai Villa.
Because no matter how powerful Xie Hefan is, he is the only one who can do anything in the entire villa. But they heard today that the Evil King seemed to have brought a woman to Yunlai Villa in the past two days, so they were worried that the Evil King would take action.
At this moment, the second manor owner who had been standing next to Xie Hefan suddenly moved closer to him, put his head slightly close to his ear, and said in a slightly lowered voice: "Hefan! It's not a good sign if the stalemate continues. Is the map they are talking about in our Yunlai Villa?"
However, before the second manor owner finished speaking, Xie Hefan glared at him fiercely.
His eyes were full of anger and dissatisfaction, as if he was blaming the Second Manor Master for asking such a question at this time.
But at this time, the second owner seemed a little guilty. He lowered his head and did not dare to look directly into Xie Hefan's eyes.
Because he knew very well that his behavior just now was indeed inappropriate.
In fact, his second uncle has always had a bad habit, which is that he likes to inquire about news and secrets.
Especially for some important objects or secrets, he always couldn't help wanting to know their whereabouts.
The same was true for the inquiry about the forbidden area map this time. He asked about the whereabouts of the map in front of so many people. He must be up to something again. Maybe the people he was colluding with outside... are the men in black at the door?
Xie Hefan guessed.
Thinking of this, Xie Hefan couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Is he still the second owner of Yunlai Villa? He thought that betraying the secrets of Yunlai Villa would be good for him."
No wonder his grandfather concealed the matter of the forbidden area map from the second owner of the manor, and even cut the map into two halves for safekeeping, giving one half to his father and the other half to his third uncle.
Now that his father has passed away, the map that belonged to his father naturally fell into He Fan's hands.
Although he had half of the map of the forbidden area, he had no idea what was inside the forbidden area of their Yunlai Villa that was worthy of the attention of all the major sects in the martial arts world and the royal families of various countries.
However, Xie Hefan didn't know and didn't want to know.
Thinking of this, Xie Hefan glared at the Second Manor Master again and said in a cold voice: "Second Manor Master, you are always watching every move of Yunlai Villa. What exactly does our Yunlai Villa have? You know better than me, right?"
The Second Manor Master was speechless after being asked by Xie Hefan, but he made a specious argument: "I am just concerned about the safety of Yunlai Manor!"
"Humph!" Xie Hefan snorted, "I hope you really care?
After hearing this, the Second Manor Master suddenly felt guilty. He did not dare to look directly into Xie Hefan's eyes. However, his expression had already betrayed him.
"Xie Hefan, are you speaking human language? Yunlai Villa is also where I was born and grew up. This is my home. If I don't care about it, what else would I care about?"
"Second Master, stop pretending!" Xie Hefan sneered, "I know everything you've done. You and Bai..."
The second manor owner's face turned pale instantly when he heard this. He didn't expect that his conspiracy was discovered by Xie Hefan, and he was panicked.
"Xie Hefan, stop slandering me!" The Second Manor Master shouted angrily, "I am the Second Manor Master of Yunlai Manor, how can I... You can't frame me for some unfounded charges!"
