　　Yun Yiyuan basked in a pool of hot water, his index finger sliding past the scar on his left chest which reminded him of his defeat against Li Yiming.

　　"You're hiding something from me." Yun Yiyuan looked at Ying Mei, who was standing at the edge of his bathing pool made of jade, with a sunken countenance.

　　"What do you mean?"

　　"You didn't tell me about the people behind Li Yiming when you asked me to kill him."

　　"Well, you didn't ask, did you?" Ying Mei smirked.

　　"If you still want my help, then tell me everything you know." Yun Yiyuan took a deep breath to clear away his anger.

　　"Unfortunately for you, even I don't know much. I only came into contact with him following Bing Shuai's artificial guardian plan."

　　"Artificial guardian plan?" Yun Yiyuan frowned as he had heard some rumors about Bing Shuai's ambition.

　　"Yes. The people who support Li Yiming were also involved."

　　'The people behind Li Yiming are also trying to challenge Heaven's Laws? I thought Bing Shuai was the only one crazy enough to have such a ludicrous goal… Wait… The festival… Mr. Kong?' A terrible thought suddenly occurred to Yun Yiyuan.

　　"Do you suppose that he is behind Li Yiming?" Yun Yiyuan asked with a severe countenance. If Mr. Kong was indeed supporting Li Yiming, then he would have to reconsider his goals.

　　"I have my doubts… but…" Ying Mei knew what Yun Yiyuan was implying.

　　"But what?"

　　"I've went through my archives about Li Yiming a few days ago. Here's what we know about him." A file folder suddenly appeared in Ying Mei's hand.

　　"The first person to enter contact with Li Yiming was a test subject of ours, Guo Xian. The reason was that Li Yiming's girlfriend had an affair with him."

　　"As in he took Li Yiming's girl?" Yun Yiyuan was unsure where this was going.

　　"Yes. There was no doubt that the girl cheated on Li Yiming."

　　"And then?" Yun Yiyuan could not believe the story. 'To think that Bing Shuai's preparations for all these years have been ruined because of something like this…'

　　"And then nothing."

　　"What?"
