"Big Brother, we’re not sure if it was Ye Tianchen who killed Xiao Hao, but this guy is definitely involved in it..."

A burly man said with a puzzled look.

"Ye Tianchen? A laughingstock in all of Kyoto, a wastrel and a good-for-nothing, and he dares to challenge me, Chen Hu. I will make sure he dies." Chen Hu punched the LCD computer screen in front of him, shattering it.

"Big Brother, I think we need to think this through. Over thirty capable henchmen, and even Rat is there. Rat’s skills are on par with ours, yet he couldn’t fight back at all. Whether or not it was Ye Tianchen, we need to take this seriously. After all, the Ye family is still a third-rate family in Kyoto. If we really kill Ye Tianchen, it will have some impact." Another burly man said worriedly.

Chen Hu frowned. His son had been killed, and he was filled with immense anger. No matter who had killed his son, he would seek revenge. Even if it meant provoking the Ye family, he was not without backing.

Logically, Chen Hu was just a local thug in the southern district of Kyoto. Even if the Ye family had declined, a fallen camel is still bigger than a horse, and Chen Hu would never dare to provoke them. However, from Chen Hu’s tone, it was clear he did not take the Ye family seriously. Even if Ye Tianchen had really killed his son, Chen Hao, he would still dare to take revenge.

"Hmph, the Ye family has long declined. Even if they haven’t, if I kill Ye Tianchen, they won’t dare to do anything!" Chen Hu said with a sinister tone.

"Big Brother, should we inform Brother Li? After all, if we move against the Ye family, there might be some trouble. We should let Brother Li know in advance so that the top brass can protect us."

"No need. Killing first and reporting later is fine. Brother Li was planning to move against the Ye family anyway. I didn’t expect the Ye family to provoke me, Chen Hu. They deserve to be wiped out."

Although he said this, Chen Hu still thought for a moment. He was just a local thug in the southern district of Kyoto, but above him was a bigger brother, and above that brother was a major force. He decided to move against the Ye family for two reasons: to avenge his son and because he learned that his boss, Brother Li, was also planning to deal with the Ye family. If he could kill Ye Tianchen and eliminate the Ye family, it would be a great achievement, and he might even receive a reward from the top force.

"Big Brother, what do you say? We’ll follow your lead."

"Good. Regardless of whether it was Ye Tianchen who killed Hao, it’s definitely related to the Ye family. He’s just a wastrel and a good-for-nothing, and I, Chen Hu, don’t take him seriously. You three, go to the Ye family and kill Ye Tianchen. Also, bring his sister back to me. My son couldn’t have her, so I’ll do it for him!" Chen Hu said with a cruel tone.

The three burly men laughed lecherously. They knew that if they brought back Ye Tianchen’s sister, Ye Qianwen, Chen Hu would definitely humiliate her, and they might get a chance to have their way with her too.

However, at that moment, Chen Hu and the other three burly men’s sinister smiles froze. They heard a stranger’s voice, and they didn’t know when this man had entered the room, possibly overhearing their entire conversation.

"You don’t need to go to the Ye family because you won’t see tomorrow’s sun!"

"Who?" Chen Hu frowned and asked.

The other three thugs were also stunned, then they looked cautiously at the dark corner of the room. There, a figure was visible, leaning against the wall, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, walking toward them leisurely.

"Because you and your son have done too many bad things, the King of Hell has decided to reunite you."

As he spoke, Ye Tianchen appeared in Chen Hu’s line of sight, his hands in his pockets, a cigarette in his mouth, and a gentle smile on his face, showing no signs of killing intent.

"Hmm? Could you be Ye Tianchen?" Chen Hu asked through gritted teeth.

"That’s right!" Ye Tianchen sat on the sofa, crossing his legs and looking at Chen Hu.

Chen Hu was first shocked, then a cruel smile appeared on his face. He waved his hand, and one of the burly men ran to close the door, as if afraid Ye Tianchen would escape.

"Brat, you chose the path to hell when you could have chosen the path to heaven. Today is your end." Chen Hu roared, his eyes bloodshot.

"I have only one question for you. Who is your boss? And who is above your boss?"

Ye Tianchen had heard Chen Hu and the three thugs’ conversation and felt he had made the right decision to come. If he hadn’t come tonight to eliminate the threat, his parents and sister might have been in danger. He also learned of a major conspiracy. For a long time, a major force in Kyoto had been planning to deal with the Ye family, seemingly for a long time.

Ye Tianchen was not the type to leave potential threats to his family. Although he didn’t have much affection for the people in the Ye family’s old house, they were still family. Moreover, his father was filial, and he had to consider this. More importantly, many people thought the Ye family had declined and looked down on them, which Ye Tianchen couldn’t stand. He decided to make the Ye family rise again, to lift their heads, so they wouldn’t always be looked down upon, for the sake of his parents and sister.

"Kill this little bastard and show him my power. Also, let the Ye family know that if they dare to provoke me, Chen Hu, their entire family will die."

Chen Hu’s words were extremely domineering. If others heard them, they would laugh. A small-time thug in the southern district of Kyoto dared to challenge the Ye family. Even if the Ye family had declined, they were still not to be provoked. However, this also showed that the Ye family had indeed declined to the point where even a small-time thug dared to bully them, which made Ye Tianchen somewhat angry.

The three thugs, following Chen Hu’s order, rushed at Ye Tianchen. The one in the lead didn’t take Ye Tianchen seriously. Physically, he was much stronger than Ye Tianchen and thought he could knock out all of Ye Tianchen’s teeth with one punch. So he aimed a punch at Ye Tianchen’s face.

Pop!

Ye Tianchen flicked the cigarette butt from his right hand, hitting the lead thug’s forehead. The thug felt a burning pain but didn’t react in time. He was thrown back by a punch to the chest, breaking several ribs, and fell several meters away, struggling on the ground but unable to get up.

One punch was enough to take down a thug, shocking Chen Hu and the other two thugs. They never expected that Ye Tianchen, a wastrel and a good-for-nothing, would be so skilled.

"What are you waiting for? Stab him to death!" Chen Hu, holding a gun, shouted at the other two thugs.

The remaining two thugs came to their senses and pulled out half-meter-long daggers, rushing at Ye Tianchen. This time, Ye Tianchen moved forward, facing the two thugs and quickly rushing toward Chen Hu.

Chen Hu was terrified. He saw a figure rush at him and quickly raised his gun, but he didn’t have the chance. Ye Tianchen’s dagger was already at his throat, pressing him against the wall.

"Don’t, don’t kill me..." Chen Hu finally showed fear, looking at Ye Tianchen in terror.

Thud, thud!

Behind Ye Tianchen, the two thugs who had been standing still suddenly fell to the ground, their throats slit, blood gushing out.

"One last chance, who is your boss, and who is the force above your boss?" Ye Tianchen asked calmly.

"I... I... I really don’t know..." Chen Hu tried to be stubborn, knowing that betraying his boss and the top force would mean death for him and his family.

Ye Tianchen’s knife fell, and Chen Hu’s right arm was severed. Ye Tianchen wouldn’t show mercy to such a thug, especially not in the end times.

"Ahh, my arm... Ahh!" Chen Hu screamed like a pig being slaughtered, trying to fall to the ground but unable to, as Ye Tianchen’s left hand was choking him, making him almost suffocate.

"Do you want to see the world one last time?" Ye Tianchen asked with a smile.

"I... Spare me, spare me... I’ll talk, I’ll talk."

Chen Hu couldn’t bear it. He couldn’t imagine that Ye Tianchen, who always smiled and seemed harmless, could be so ruthless. No one who fell into his hands would dare to lie.

"My boss is Li Tie, and the top force above Li Tie is the Qin family!" Chen Hu said in agony.

Now, Ye Tianchen understood. The Qin family had always wanted to deal with the Ye family, to compete with his father for the position of Party Secretary in H City. The Qin family had even sent assassins and forced the Qi family to break off their engagement with the Ye family. It seemed the Qin family really saw the Ye family as a pushover, ready to be manipulated as they pleased.

"Thank you!"

Ye Tianchen smiled at Chen Hu, then turned to leave. Chen Hu, gritting his teeth and enduring the pain, picked up the gun with his left hand and aimed at Ye Tianchen’s head.

Whoosh!

As Chen Hu raised his gun, a dagger flew at him. Ye Tianchen didn’t even turn around. The dagger, infused with energy, pierced Chen Hu’s throat, the force of the impact driving the dagger and Chen Hu’s body through the room’s large glass window, pinning him to the wall. Blood gushed from his mouth as Ye Tianchen disappeared from the room...
