Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Hanshuang’s expression changed drastically.
She stared incredulously at the man on the ground who was covered in blood.
This man was also from Xuemei Palace!
This time, the Qin family actually took out two hits on Ye Chen!
Someone else had also accepted the mission to kill Ye Chen!
More importantly, how did Ye Chen find out?
He had just entered the house!
The man on the ground moaned in pain. He could not count the number of bones that had been broken, and blood kept seeping out.
He glared at Ye Chen and gripped his dagger. He was about to slash it toward Ye Chen when a foot stepped on his arm.
Kacha!
His arm was broken!
“All!”
The man screamed in pain again, but his voice was soon silenced.
That was because Ye Chen had once again grabbed his neck and lifted him up.
“Who sent you?”
Ye Chen’s voice was as cold as ice.
The man felt as if he had fallen into an abyss. His face was gradually turning pale and green as he was being suffocated.
He struggled desperately but soon realized that he could not break free at all.
His eyes were bloodshot.
He wanted to speak, but he could not.
At that moment, Ye Chen noticed a blooming red plum mark on the man’s forehead; identical to the one Lu Hanshuang had!
He smashed the man into the ground again.
Kakaka!
The sounds of even more bones cracking filled the living room.
“This man came with you? Is this what you meant by saving me?” Ye Chen asked Lu Hanshuang calmly.
Lu Hanshuang’s face was pale. She glanced at the man and shook her head violently.
“I didn’t know about this guy either! Damn it! This guy actually accepted the same mission!”
The man on the ground breathed heavily, his face extremely pale.
Who would have thought that the person he was tasked to kill this time would be so terrifying!
He did not have the strength to fight back!
Suddenly, he looked at Lu Hanshuang coldly and said angrily, “Lu Hanshuang, do you know what you are doing? You actually broke the rules!”
“I advise you to kill this man immediately!”
Ye Chen glanced at the man on the ground and stepped on him.
“You talk too much. Those who wanted to kill me are all dead, and soon, you will join them in hell.”
Ye Chen suddenly exerted force. If his foot stomped hard enough, this guy would die immediately.
At this moment, Lu Hanshuang quickly said, “Don’t kill him!”
“If you kill him, Xuemei Palace will send even stronger experts to hunt you down. This will be a neverending nightmare for you, and you won’t be able to escape the claws of Xuemei Palace!”
This was Lu Hanshuang’s biggest worry!
Otherwise, she would be willing to kill this man herself!
Ye Chen hesitated for a few seconds. If that was the case, there was no need for Xuemei Palace to exist.
When the man on the ground saw Ye Chen stop, he thought that Ye Chen had become frightened after hearing those words.
He laughed coldly, looking rather ferocious. He said to Ye Chen, “Brat, now you know who you’ve offended. You’re courting death! If you kneel in front of me and beg for mercy now, I might consider sparing your…”
Before he could finish, Ye Chen stomped down hard with his foot, crushing the man’s chest.
As he spat out mouthful after mouthful of blood, an indifferent voice said, “I already said that you talk too much.”
Then, life left the man’s eyes.
Lu Hanshuang was shocked by Ye Chen’s actions. Was it worth it to make an enemy out of Xuemei Palace?
Was this guy crazy?
After doing all this, Ye Chen returned to the sofa and took out a pack of cigarettes. He pulled one out and put it in his mouth.
Sparks flickered and smoke instantly curled up.
Lu Hanshuang was about to speak when Ye Chen spoke up.
“Take this person’s body with you. Also, I don’t want the villa to have a drop of this trash’s blood remaining.”
His voice was very calm, but unquestionable.
Lu Hanshuang’s expression was a mixture of incredulity and coldness.
Who would have thought that Ye Chen would kill someone and have her, a member of the Xuemei Palace, clean up the corpse of a fellow colleague?
Could it be that she was his servant?
“Ye Chen, don’t think that you can order me around just because you saved me. You’ve already sent yourself down the road to a dead end thanks to your actions.”
“You will live in the shadows for the rest of your life. Only at the moment of your death will you understand how ridiculous everything you have done is,” Lu Hanshuang said word by word.
It was more of a threat than a reminder.
If Ye Chen had not saved her, she would not have said so much.
Ye Chen glanced at Lu Hanshuang and said, “Remember to close the door on your way out.”
” You!” Lu Hanshuang was about to explode.
Even so, she still quietly dealt with the corpse.
At the very least, it would allow Ye Chen to live for a few more days.
She did not want to owe Ye Chen any favors.
Once she repaid those three favors, she would leave Jiangnan Province. She did not want to have any more interactions with Ye Chen.
The moment she closed the door, Lu Hanshuang’s hand stopped. She glanced at Ye Chen who was sitting on the sofa and said, “Helping you find a scapegoat and dealing with this matter should be enough to count as a favor. I’ll stall for time with Xuemei Palace, however, once 1 can’t drag it out, you’re on your own.”
With that, she disappeared into the night.
After Lu Hanshuang left, Ye Chen dialed Ye Lingtian’s number.
“Hall Master, do you have orders for me?” Ye Lingtian’s respectful voice could be heard on the other end of the line.
“How much do you know about Xuemei Palace?” Ye Chen asked.
After all, Xuemei Palace was a ticking time bomb, so he had to find an opportunity to deal with it.
Ye Lingtian was stunned and quickly asked, “Hall Master, did Xuemei Palace offend you?”
“I’m just asking.”
Ye Lingtian pondered for a moment and said, “I’ve met Ling Feng, the person in charge of this area for Xuemei Palace. He’s ruthless and powerful in terms of martial arts, but compared to Hall Master, he’s like an ant..”
