Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The next day, Jiangnan Province, Mingcui Villa.
Ye Chen opened his eyes and let out a breath of turbid air. A night of cultivation had improved his cultivation level significantly.
Although he was still some distance away from the fourth level of the qi transformation realm, with the heaven-defying spiritual energy of the Samsara Graveyard and the pills he refined, his cultivation progressed faster than it did in the Kunlun Mountains.
When Ye Chen woke up, he realized that Sun Yi and Xia Ruoxue had left a long time ago. They were probably dealing with the Heavenly Justice Group’s matters in Jiangnan Province.
The two of them had reached an agreement last night. Since it was Sun Yi’s first time in Jiangnan Province, Xia Ruoxue would take care of some business matters with her to show her the ropes.
After Ye Chen finished the breakfast that Sun Yi had prepared, he called Ying Qing and asked about Zhong Weishan. Ying Qing immediately sent some technicians over to contact Zhong Weishan and simulate the man’s image.
Ye Chen felt more assured that Ying Qing was dealing with it.
Then, Ye Chen called Ye Lingtian to ask about his cultivation progress.
Ye Lingtian sounded excited over the phone. The three cultivation techniques and martial arts techniques seemed to have opened a whole new world for him. Although he had to abandon his previous techniques, he was shocked to discover that his strength and speed had both improved!
Ye Lingtian then informed Ye Chen that he should be more careful these few days. Unless it was absolutely necessary, it was best not to go out.
After hanging up on Ye Lingtian, Ye Chen called Wu Xiangming for the same reason. However, he realized that the latter’s phone was turned off when it went to voicemail after ringing three times.
Ye Chen frowned. He had asked Wu Xiangming to rent a unit nearby so that he could cultivate and be on standby. Logically speaking, Wu Xiangming’s phone should be switched on 24/7 and his phone would always be kept by his side.
Why did he not pick up the call?
Ye Chen did not think too much about it. He reckoned that the other party was in the midst of a cultivation breakthrough.
Two hours later, Ye Chen called Wu Xiangming again, but his phone was still switched off!
Ye Chen felt that something was amiss.
He closed his eyes tightly. Two special drops of blood essence were floating in his sea of consciousness!
These belonged to Ma Wei Qi and Wu Xiangming!
Wu Xiangming’s drop of blood essence had weakened a little. It was obvious that something had happened!
Ye Chen’s expression changed, as he grabbed a jacket and headed toward Ting Lan District. Given how close it was, Ye Chen arrived within a few minutes.
The moment the elevator door opened, Ye Chen sensed that something was wrong.
This apartment complex had one unit per elevator, so when the elevator opened, Wu Xiangming’s residence was already in front of him.
At this moment, he could see that Wu Xiangming’s door had been blown open, and it was a mess inside.
Ye Chen walked in, looking around solemnly.
The walls were damaged, the tables shattered, and there were cracks and bloodstains on the ground.
It was a shocking sight.
It was obvious that a battle had broken out here. Wu Xiangming should have been injured and taken away. Who would do this?
Ye Chen had asked Ye Lingtian to keep an eye on the Qin family. In addition, the Qin family was still at Mount Kunlun, and showed no signs of returning to Jiangnan Province.
It was impossible for anyone in the Nanqin Manor to deal with Wu Xiangming.
Suddenly, Ye Chen’s pupils constricted. He squatted down and saw the blood-stained ‘Wu’ character on the ground!
Although the handwriting was rushed and crooked, Ye Chen was sure that it was left behind by Wu Xiangming!
Moreover, from the amount of blood on the floor and walls, he was certain that Wu Xiangming had suffered serious injuries before being taken away.
Wu Family!
Ye Chen’s gaze was cold.
Back then, he did not deal with the Wu family as a favor to Wu Xiangming.
He did not expect that even after Wu Xiangming was expelled from the Wu family, this group of people had no plans to let Wu Xiangming off.
It seemed that there was no need for the Wu family to exist anymore!
Wu family’s residence.
Wu Xiangming was lying on the ground like a cripple. Blood kept flowing out of the corners of his mouth. He was extremely weak.
Wu Qiyuan looked at Wu Xiangming with a complicated expression and sighed.
Although this person was a traitor, he was once a member of the Wu family.
He did not expect Wu Xiangming to be beaten up by Wu Cheng and Wu Yong to this extent. They really were ruthless.
Wu Qiyuan looked at the two of them and said coldly, “I only said to bring this person here. Why did you injure him so badly?”
Wu Cheng smiled awkwardly.
“Wu Xiangming is just a dog now. What’s the difference between a dead dog and a living dog?”
“The key thing is that this dog is not cooperating at all. Not only will he not tell us the location of that little bastard, he even….”
Suddenly, Wu Cheng thought of something. He glanced at Wu Yong and said, “Quickly! Take those things out.”
Wu Yong then hurriedly took out a few medicinal pills from his pocket.
As soon as the medicinal pills appeared, Wu Qiyuan’s expression changed!
He reached out and snatched the pills from Wu Yong’s hand. Looking at the pill patterns on it, he said excitedly, “This… This medicinal pill is actually freshly refined!”
He disregarded everything and immediately consumed one. In the next second, dense medicinal power filled his body!
Wu Qiyuan was completely immersed in the moment!
“Good! Amazing!”
He suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed Wu Yong’s hand, asking, “This medicinal pill is actually more powerful than the rare medicinal pills left behind by the Wu family’s ancestors… How did you get them?”
“Once the Wu family grasps the source of these pills, we will definitely return to our peak,” he said breathlessly.
At this moment, he did not even care about Ye Chen’s matters. To him, these pills were of the utmost importance!
“Tell me quickly, where did you get these pills from?”
Wu Qiyuan’s burning eyes stared straight at Wu Yong.
Wu Yong and Wu Cheng looked at each other, and then their eyes fell on Wu Xiangming who was on the ground.
“Family head, we took these pills from him. At that time, we were eager to know the source of these medicinal pills, which was why we beat him up like this. However, this guy was too stubborn and was unwilling to say anything.”
Wu Qiyuan took a deep look at Wu Xiangming on the ground, squatted down, shook the pills in his hand, and said seriously, “Wu Xiangming, where did you get these pills? If you tell me, 1’11 take you to the hospital right now. Maybe your body can still be saved..”
