"Yes, Chairman Liu." Although the middle-aged man felt a bit displeased, at this mont, they didn’t have the slightest strength to resist Liu Hun, so when he answered Liu Hun, his head was lowered even further.
He seed to be afraid of provoking Liu Hun, for fear that Liu Hun would cast a spell and wipe them all out.
"Yi’er, are you okay?" At this mont, Liu Hun didn’t even bother with these people. He went directly to Yang Yi, and the originally cold face softened, with a hint of apology in his eyes as he asked Yang Yi.
In Liu Hun’s heart, the two people he owed the most in this life were the old man and Yang Yi. The old man was already dead, and everything he was doing now was just to avenge the old man, but he couldn’t make up for everything with the one remaining person, Yang Yi.
"I’m fine, as long as you’re back." Yang Yi gave Liu Hun a sowhat pale smile and answered slowly.
Seeing that Yang Yi was still forcing a smile when she was already in this state, Liu Hun knew that it was just Yang Yi not wanting him to worry. But how was it possible for him not to worry?
If he wasn’t concerned, he wouldn’t have rushed over imdiately after coming out of seclusion.
But the things Yang Yi had done for him since childhood, a re thank you was not enough to express it all. So, at this mont, Liu Hun opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing, gently holding Yang Yi in his arms.
For the first ti in so many years, Liu Hun held her like this, feeling the warmth of Liu Hun’s body. Yang Yi, slightly stunned at first, then gently extended her arms to embrace Liu Hun, resting her face against his chest.
"I’ve returned. From now on, I’ll never let you get hurt even a little bit..." Liu Hun quietly held Yang Yi, softly speaking to her.
Upon hearing Liu Hun’s words, the corners of Yang Yi’s mouth couldn’t help but lift slightly in a faint smile, but at this mont, the astute Yang Yi said nothing.
She had always known her place in Liu Hun’s heart, but Yang Yi had never brought it up. She just needed to know that her place was irreplaceable, and as for the rest, she never interfered with Liu Hun’s affairs.
Just like now, when she was in danger, it was Liu Hun who suddenly appeared and saved her.
"What do you plan to do from now on?" After so ti, Yang Yi wanted very much to tell Liu Hun to leave this world behind, to find a quiet place and spend a lifeti together, but she left those words unsaid, instead asking Liu Hun this question.
Because Yang Yi knew that everything Liu Hun did was for revenge for the old man. Asking Liu Hun to give up now was simply impossible.
Perhaps Liu Hun would agree because of her, but that wasn’t what Yang Yi wanted to see. She wanted Liu Hun to be with her without any scruples or burdens, not forced into it.
Otherwise, Yang Yi would seem too selfish.
"Once this is all over, I’ll accompany you wherever you want to go, but not yet. Next, I’ll clear out so forces from Huaihai Province and Southeast Province, and the rest will depend on whether their actions satisfy or not." Liu Hun said, his eyes flashing with a cold gleam.
Even the middle-aged man and others nearby couldn’t help but feel a slight shock at the cold gleam in Liu Hun’s eyes.
They knew very well what Liu Hun’s words ant just now. He was referring to the official people, and if they insisted, Liu Hun would probably take action against them.
A confrontation with the state in the open would have been scoffed at by anyone before, as such a thing seed impossible.
But since Liu Hun left the Central South Sea a year ago, cultivators could no longer be ignored. In fact, over the past year, the country had recruited countless cultivators to protect it, realizing that sotis modern weapons alone weren’t enough in this world.
Even though soone as powerful as Liu Hun could be dealt with by one missile if needed, if Liu Hun hid in a city and picked them off one by one, they couldn’t defend against that.
They could think of these things, so they believed Liu Hun could too, but Liu Hun still persisted, showing he already had his own plans.
The more so, the more terrifying Liu Hun’s manifested power felt to them.
"In the year you’ve been gone, I’ve had both the people of the Death Tribe and the Ghost Doctor Clan hide in the secular world, and with their terrifying dical skills, the Ghost Doctor Clan now holds high status across the country, even among so cultivation families alike." At this mont, Yang Yi suddenly raised her head to speak to Liu Hun.
