When Ye Li heard Xiahou Yu's words, his expression changed, but he finally felt at ease.
"It turns out that Manager Xiahou is one of us. I am relieved now!"
Ye Li let out a long sigh and spoke.
He had been away from here for too long and had no idea what had happened on the Black Eye Continent.
Now that he saw changes in Pushan Island and the Merchants Association, he no longer knew who he could trust and who he could not trust.
"Master Ye Li, please wait a moment. I will activate the formation in the room to ensure everything is safe.
Recently, the enemy has infiltrated us seriously, and the people in the Travel Merchants Association have become less reliable."
As he spoke, Xiahou Yu stood up and opened the soundproofing array in the room. Then he seemed to heave a sigh of relief and sat down again.
After seeing Xiahou Yu sitting down, Ye Li said, "Brother Xiahou, since you are the nephew-in-law of Mr. Li, you can be considered one of us.
There is no need to be so polite between us. I will just call you Big Brother and you don’t have to call me Sir anymore.”
After hearing Ye Li's words, Xiahou Yu was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and nodded, saying: "Okay, then I don't have to be so polite.
Ye Li, I can tell you where you want to start to learn the information. "
Ye Li said: "Brother Xiahou, I want to know the situation of Master and the others first. What happened on Pushan Island?"
Xiahou Yu nodded upon hearing this and said, "I guess these are the things you want to know the most. Since you went to the coast of the East China Sea, you must have also been to Pushan Island.
Pushan Island was attacked by people from the Dahuntian organization, but they were not attacked by people from within the organization. Instead, they were attacked by overseas forces that Dahuntian had gathered into the organization.
Actually, this incident happened because of the fault of our Traveling Merchants Association, because the enemy had infiltrated our group.
You originally asked your uncle to let our Traveling Merchants Association be responsible for transporting resources to Pushan Island, and this matter was also discovered by the people of the Dahuntian organization.
After their people infiltrated our group, we somehow controlled some of our core members and obtained information about Pushan Island from them.
Then, while we were transporting resources to Pushan Island, they launched a surprise attack on Pushan Island.
The people on Pushan Island had never expected the appearance of the enemy. After a desperate resistance, only about half of them managed to escape.
Only 60 to 70 percent of the things originally cast on the island were loaded onto the emergency escape ships in advance, so they were preserved, and the rest were completely looted by the enemy.
It is said that Master Ou, most of the Lang family, and everyone in your Ye family have evacuated, but we still don’t know the exact casualties.
After Master Ou and his team evacuated, they did not choose to return to the mainland, but instead went to hide on other islands in the outer sea. We don’t know where they went exactly.
I once asked my uncle about this, and he said that the enemy's infiltration is too severe under the current circumstances, and he dare not reveal the information at all. Even he himself only knows the approximate location where Master Ou and his men are hiding.
No one knows the specific situation now, and our Travel Merchants Association is no longer responsible for the transportation of supplies.
I guess Master Ou and his team should have set up a material transport team to specifically handle the transportation of materials. This is also the safest approach."
Hearing Xiahou Yu's answer, Ye Li felt both angry and relieved.
What made them angry was that they had worked so hard for so long, but it was destroyed by the people from the Dahuntian organization, and a small part of the cast items were looted. The loss was really heavy.
He was comforted to know that Ou Qianxie and others were still alive, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Ye Li said: "Since even you, Brother Xiahou, don't know the whereabouts of my master and the others, it means that the enemy certainly doesn't know their intelligence.
Later I will go to Mr. Li to ask in person. If he can give me a general idea, I might be able to go and look for it myself.
I already know the situation on Pushan Island, so, Brother Xiahou, what is the current situation of my family?"
Hearing Ye Li asking about the situation of the Ye family, Xiahou Yu shook his head, sighed, and said: "The situation of the Ye family is not very good, and now it has been suppressed by many forces.
When you, Ye Li, were still here, the Ye family was developing smoothly. But after you were judged as a traitor by the Imperial City, the situation of the Ye family plummeted.
Originally, the Imperial City was going to punish the Ye family for your treason, but thanks to the explanations of some inner court elders, the matter was suppressed.
However, after losing the protection of the Imperial City and the help of the Weapon Foundry Hall, the Ye family's original wealth began to be coveted by many forces.
The Ye family's own strength has always been difficult to grow and develop. After all, their foundation is really weak. Even though they have already firmly stood at the height of a fifth-grade family, they are still no match for those third- and fourth-grade families.
If it weren’t for Feng Feiyan from the Feng family who would protect the Ye family from time to time, the situation of the Ye family might have been even worse.
The Ye family has now been forced back to Shanhai County and can only defend this county. All the businesses that were originally developed outside Shanhai County have been suppressed.
Moreover, due to the departure of Master Ou and others from the Foundry Hall, the Ye family's foundry business came to a complete halt, and the family's development became extremely slow.
Since our Traveling Merchants Association has long announced that it will not participate in the fights between various forces, it is naturally difficult for us to come forward to help the Ye family. We can only occasionally provide some intelligence and resource assistance, and we can't help much else.
But in addition to us, the Huahai Sect, which had received some favors from you before, also provided some help to the Ye family. However, the Huahai Sect itself is not very strong, so the help it can provide is naturally very limited. "
After hearing about what happened to the Ye family and the news that his mother had helped the Ye family, Ye Li had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He was very indignant about the blow that the Ye family had suffered, but he didn't know where to vent his anger.
In the final analysis, the rise and fall of the Ye family has always depended on Ye Li. When he performs well in the Black Eye Continent, the Ye family will be able to develop well.
But after he left the Black Eye Continent and was labeled a traitor by the Imperial City, the Ye family became a target that could be suppressed at will by many forces.
Ye Li didn't know whether he should blame those forces that flattered the Ye family in the past and were now suppressing the Ye family, or whether he should blame himself.
"I... Are my grandpa and the others all okay?"
Ye Li couldn't help but ask about Ye Wujiu's news.
Xiahou Yu nodded and said, "Although the Ye family's recent situation is a bit bad, the casualties are not too many. Your grandfather is in good condition. He has already broken through to the Yuantai stage, which surprised many people."
