"Mr. Ye, this..."
Li Tiancheng looked at Ye Luo holding the bead that emitted a fiery red glow in his hand, his expression changing subtly.
"I’ve helped you with such a big favor, so consider this bead my compensation. Moreover, this bead doesn’t seem to belong to President Li, right? That makes it all the more reason for to take it," Ye Luo said as he pocketed the bead.
Li Tiancheng’s expression changed abruptly, and the two won in black lying on the ground fixed their gaze on Ye Luo.
"Alright, President Li, I’ve resolved the issue for you. The rest is up to you to take care of. Once you’ve settled these matters, if you wish to sign a contract with our i Yue, or to cure your illness, feel free to contact ."
"Goodbye!"
Ye Luo waved his hand and walked out. Li Tiancheng’s gaze flickered, and he let out a deep sigh before his face turned cold, sweeping his icy gaze towards Li Haoming and Huilan.
"Tiancheng, I’m sorry, so sorry, we were just confused. Please forgive us," Huilan quickly ran to Li Tiancheng, pleading with a desperate look on her face.
Slap!
Li Tiancheng swung his hand, striking the woman to the ground, and snorted with a furious face: "Slut."
Leaving the hotel, Ye Luo returned to his car and took out the bead that was emitting a fiery red glow, his eyes shimring.
Suddenly, Ye Luo thought of sothing and hurriedly drove back to the villa. He walked into his room and took out another bead.
This bead was one that Ye Luo had obtained in that tomb. Holding the two beads together for comparison, Ye Luo found that they were exactly alike.
One emitted a fiery red light, while the other glowed with a greenish hue.
Moreover, when the two beads were brought together, Ye Luo felt a mutual attraction between them.
Clearly, there must be so connection between the two beads, perhaps a significant one, but the secret behind them was unknown to Ye Luo.
"It seems that this Li Tiancheng might know the secret of these beads, and those two won..." Ye Luo’s eyes narrowed thoughtfully.
Zhonghai City Hospital. Fang Yan, accompanied by two experts, arrived outside the operating room, just in ti to see a doctor coming out.
"Doctor, how is my father?"
"The patient’s organs have suffered severe impact, and multiple organs are ruptured. We’ve been attempting to resuscitate him, but please prepare yourselves ntally," the doctor said before leaving promptly.
"What? How could this happen?" Fang Yan’s body staggered backward, leaning against the wall.
After ten minutes, Fang Yan entered the operating room where Fang Rushan lay on the surgery bed, approaching the last monts of his life.
Though Ye Luo had not used his full strength with that punch, he had still not held back much. With his strength, even an Innate Expert might not have been able to withstand it, let alone a man in his fifties like Fang Rushan who had no real battling capability; he simply could not bear it.
"Father!" Fang Yan called out.
"Yan’er..." Fang Rushan’s eyes slowly opened, his breath as thin as a thread, his voice so weak it was nearly inaudible.
"Father, you’ll be alright, I’ll go back to our sect now to ask our master for a Spirit Pill to save you," Fang Yan said, his expression turning frantic.
Suddenly, Fang Rushan grabbed Fang Yan’s hand and said, "Yan’er, live on, fulfill your father’s wishes, and also to kill... kill... Ye Luo..."
After Fang Rushan finished his last sentence, his grip on Fang Yan’s hand loosened, and he passed away completely.
"Father!"
Fang Yan’s expression froze, and calling out loudly after regaining his composure, he tightly grasped Fang Rushan’s hand, his eyes becoming an intense red.
"Ye Luo, if I don’t kill you in this life, I swear I’m not human!"
A roar laden with endless killing intent echoed within the operating room as Fang Yan knelt on the floor, his entire body shaking, emanating a tangible aura of murderous intent, his eyes appearing blood-red as if filled with limitless killing desire.
"Ye... Luo..."
A voice that seed to emanate from the depths of hell passed from Fang Yan’s mouth, his whole person as if transford into a vengeful ghost, his face ferociously terrifying.
And so, a future archenemy of Ye Luo, even a matter of life and death, was born in this mont.
Ye Luo had just arrived at Ling Corporation when he saw a figure appear before him, his face pale, the corners of his mouth stained with fresh blood, it was Nie Yuntian.
"Uncle Nie, what happened to you?" Ye Luo, noticing Nie Yuntian’s condition, changed his expression and hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
"Save Wen Yu and Wen Ling," Nie Yuntian pleaded with Ye Luo.
"Uncle Nie, what on earth happened, how are the sisters Wen Yu and Wen Ling?" Ye Luo asked with a puzzled look.
"They’ve been captured by the people of Miaojiang," Nie Yuntian said, panting heavily.
Nie Yuntian then described the situation, and Ye Luo frowned and said, "These people from Miaojiang really are like cockroaches that won’t die. But Uncle Nie, what grave enmity do you have with these people from Miaojiang that warrants their relentless pursuit to target your family?"
"Ah, at this point, there’s no use in hiding it anymore, it’s all because of my mistake," sighed Nie Yuntian, and then he began to relate his grudge with Miaojiang.
Years ago, when Nie Yuntian was young, he traveled to Miaojiang and later encountered danger, saved by a girl from Miaojiang.
Thus, affections developed between the two, only for Nie Yuntian to later learn that the girl from Miaojiang was none other than the Saintess of Miaojiang, the daughter of the Second Elder of the Miaojiang clan.
Nie Yuntian’s eyes showed a complex expression as he said, "The Miaojiang clan has rules forbidding the Saintess from marrying outsiders."
"Once the Miaojiang clan found out about my affair with Wen Yu, they wanted to execute , but it was Wen Yu who secretly let escape. I had intended to take Wen Yu away from Miaojiang with , but she did not agree; back then, I promised her that I would return for her."
"And then?" Ye Luo asked involuntarily.
"Later, I left Miaojiang, pledged myself to a master, and learned martial arts, even carving out my own place in Zhonghai."
"However, when I returned to the Miaojiang clan, I learned that after my departure Wen Yu had beco deeply depressed and eventually succumbed to a chronic illness and died. I barely escaped Miaojiang with my life that ti, and since then, I have never set foot in Miaojiang again." Nie Yuntian said with a heavy tone and then sighed deeply, "It was I who caused Wen Yu’s death."
"So that’s why the people from Miaojiang have been persistently targeting you," Ye Luo now fully understood the course of events.
"It’s all my fault that Wen Yu died; I am willing to accept punishnt. However, Wen Yu and Wen Ling are innocent; I can’t let anything happen to them," Nie Yuntian’s eyes revealed a determined expression.
