He reached out, picked up the phone on the ground, and pressed the answer button.
âDadâŠâ
His voice was trembling.
Seconds later, a shocking roar was heard from the phone, âLei Zhe! Who the hell did you offend? Now, the Lei family is filled with corpses! You fucking beast! You-â
The call ended.
At this moment, Lei Zhe felt like he had fallen into an abyss. A simple phone call had decided the fate of his family!
He did not even dare to look at the young man in front of him.
What kind of demon was this?
He reacted quickly and kowtowed to Ye Chen.
âSir⊠I, I, I⊠I was wrong. Please let me go. Iâm willingâŠâ
His only wish now was to live!
Being alive meant that there was still a chance!
âYou shouldnât have provoked me, and you shouldnât have tried to touch my woman. You signed your own death warrant!â
Ye Chen condensed a wind blade in his hand, which pierced Lei Zheâs body.
Lei Zhe died immediately.
After doing all this, Ye Chen walked out to an office desk in the hall. He patted Sun Yi on the shoulder and said, âSomeone will take care of the rest. Letâs go back to the villa and let me taste your cooking.â
Sun Yi was a little confused. She glanced in the direction of the office and could only nod.
âAlrightâŠâ
Sun Yi had her own speculations about what happened from the screams she had heard just now, but since Ye Chen said that someone would deal with it, she did not want to dwell on it.
When they returned to the villa, Sun Yi received a call from Xia Ruoxue.
Xia Ruoxueâs phone was left in the car, so the earlier call had not gone through.
Sun Yi told Xia Ruoxue what had happened. Xia Ruoxue wanted to send someone to issue a warning to the Lei family, but she did not expect the news of a fire that wiped out their residence to appear on her phone.
Since someone had already done something, she did not interfere anymore. She then told Sun Yi that she might have to leave Jiangnan Province for a few days.
She and her mother were going to send her grandmother back to her hometown, and she would only be back in three or four days.
After hanging up, Sun Yi felt somewhat happy.
These few days, because Xia Ruoxue was around, she and Ye Chen could not get it on. Ever since the first time, she had been constantly thinking about it, and sometimes even wondered if she had a penchant for it.
Thus, at night, she dressed up for the occasion and went straight to Ye Chen, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa.
When Ye Chen opened his eyes and saw Sun Yi dressed like this, he was about to say something when he was interrupted.
âYe Chen, give me your hand.â
Ye Chen frowned and did as he was told.
Sun Yiâs slender fingers held Ye Chenâs hand and smiled.
âYour hands are so cold.â
Hmm?
Ye Chen was stunned.
His hand was cold?
As a cultivator, he could maintain normal body temperature even in the coldest environment.
Just as he was about to pull his hand back, Sun Yi grabbed Ye Chenâs hand tightly and said, âSilly, since your hands are so cold, Iâll warm them up for youâŠâ
Moments later, Sun Yi placed it inside her clothes.
Aha!
So that was what she was getting at!
Soon, their bodies were intertwined until dawn arrived.
A few days later, Jiangnan Province Martial Arts Association.
Tang Ao had not slept for several nights. His eyes were bloodshot.
He stared at the photo on the wall, depicting Ye Chenâs back.
He had a feeling that he had overlooked something. Otherwise, he would not have been unable to find any clues despite investigating for so many days.
It was as if someone was deliberately hindering the investigation.
Some of the people who were investigating had even mysteriously disappeared, and this number increased with every passing day.
Someone out there was interfering in affairs. Moreover, the other partyâs strength was not weak at all.
Where did Hunter come from?
He was like a ghost hiding in the dark, lurking, but never seen.
He turned around and looked at the members of the Jiangnan Province Martial Arts Association behind him. He said, âWhat did you promise me? Why havenât we found this person yet?â
No one spoke.
Pa!
Tang Ao slapped the table and roared, âI remember saying that if there were no clues, that all of you would be expelled from the Jiangnan Province Martial Arts Association!â
âAll of you f*cking get lost!â
Tang Aoâs ferocious roar startled those people.
At this moment, an elder stood up and said, âPresident Tang, we have received tip-offs several times. However, every time we went to meet these people, they were nowhere to be found! There is someone or some force protecting Hunter!â
Tang Ao was still angry. He pressed his hands on the conference table.
âI am well aware of this! However, if you canât find Hunter, you should have at least find out the identity of this f*cking force thatâs interfering!â
The elderâs expression became a little awkward, and he did not say anything else.
At this moment, a staff member knocked on the door of the hall.
âCome in,â Tang Ao said in a deep voice.
He looked at the panicked staff member and snapped, âWhat is it? Donât you know that weâre in a meeting!â
The staff memberâs face was pale. After all, the last time a colleague reported news to Tang Ao, that person ended up dying. This staff member did not want to follow in his footsteps.
âPresident Tang, thereâs a girl outside who said she knows who the person in the photo is.â.â
Tang Aoâs eyes narrowed. He grabbed the staff memberâs collar and said excitedly, âReally? Hurry up and invite her in!â
âYes, Sir!â
Not long after, a young lady walked in.
To Tang Aoâs surprise, the girlâs appearance was not bad.
However, the girlâs face was very pale, and her hair was a little disheveled.
If Ye Chen was here, he would definitely recognize that this girl was Chu Shuran!
Chu Shuran looked at Tang Ao and everyone else with fear and horror in her eyes. The countless eyes focused on her made her feel very uncomfortable.
Tang Ao had already arrived in front of Chu Shuran. He pointed at the photo of her back and said, âYou said you know who this person is, right?â
Chu Shuran nodded vigorously.
âPresident Tang, my family is being threatened. If I tell you, can you help me?â
âSpeak!â Tang Ao narrowed his eyes.
âIf your information is genuine, I can take you in as my goddaughter and give you a lifetime of glory and protection!â
