Chapter 46

"Big Brother, I know my skills are not strong, and I might hold you back. I can't afford to offend the Luo family or the Qin family, and I can't really help you much..."

Hu Long felt somewhat ashamed. He thought that his skills were not strong enough to really help his big brother Ye Tianchen. The power of those major families was so great that they had even sent Wu Xue, the top killer in the capital, to deal with the situation. He feared that even stronger and more formidable people would appear in the future, and with his current skills, he would be of little use.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Hu Long. He admired Hu Long's manly spirit. Even though his parents had passed away, he was determined to protect his sister with his life. This kind of passionate and righteous spirit was truly touching. However, Hu Long lacked a certain kind of dominance and ruthlessness. Otherwise, with his skills, the few people Li Tie had sent would not have been a match for him, and he wouldn't have been injured.

"Xiao Long, since I've agreed to let you follow me, I consider you a brother. There are some things I don't want to hide from you. This time, I've offended two major families in the capital, the Qin family and the Luo family. Especially the Qin family, which is on the verge of becoming a top-tier family, is not someone to be trifled with. As for the Luo family, they are also very powerful. These two major families will definitely not let me off. I don't know how dangerous things will get, and I can't predict it, but I can't avoid a bloody conflict. We are brothers, and I don't want you to take unnecessary risks. It's not that I look down on you or think you're a burden!" Ye Tianchen said seriously, looking at Hu Long.

"Big Brother, I'm not afraid of death. I'm willing to follow you. As long as I can help you, I won't flinch, even if it means dying!" Hu Long said resolutely.

Hu Long was a passionate and grateful man. From the moment Ye Tianchen saved him and his sister, he had vowed to repay him. He was also deeply impressed by Ye Tianchen's formidable skills. Even the top killer in the capital, Wu Xue, had been defeated by Ye Tianchen. How could Hu Long not be excited? Following such a big brother definitely had a bright future.

Of course, what Hu Long didn't know was that during the battle with Wu Xue, Ye Tianchen's ability had broken through to the King level, leaping to a new realm. His strength was now incomparable to what it was before. Otherwise, defeating Wu Xue would have been much more difficult.

"I know you're not afraid of death, but I don't want you to die in vain. When I have the time, I'll teach you a few moves. When your skills are strong enough, I'll have you help me with some tasks. And you still have your sister to take care of. Having someone to care for adds a layer of concern, and when facing powerful opponents, you need to think carefully. It's not just about fighting your way through to solve problems."

Ye Tianchen's words seemed to be directed at Hu Long, but also at himself. Just like how he was now facing the threat from the Luo family and the Qin family. If he were to kill everyone from the Luo family and the Qin family, it would shock the entire nation. The Ye family would also face difficulties, as the Luo family and the Qin family had connections in high places. Although Ye Tianchen was now very strong, he was not the strongest. He had been reborn in this life and did not yet know what powerful people existed among the ancient martial arts sects and ability users.

If he really killed everyone from the Luo family and the Qin family, what would happen if even more powerful people appeared? He might be able to protect himself and even kill all his opponents, but it would be easy to dodge the obvious threats and hard to guard against hidden ones. His parents and sister might not be so lucky. Ye Tianchen was a strong and decisive person. His principle was to follow reason, not people, but this did not mean he lacked intelligence. At any time, a strong person without intelligence was just a brute. A person who was both skilled and intelligent was a true strong person.

"Big Brother, I understand. I won't let you down!" Hu Long nodded and said.

"Good. You leave the capital tomorrow. Don't come back until you receive a call from me. In the coming days, I might have some real confrontations with the Luo family and the Qin family. When things are settled, I'll notify you to return to the capital." Ye Tianchen smiled and said to Hu Long.

"Yes, Big Brother!"

Ye Tianchen and Hu Long sat at a roadside barbecue stand, eating and drinking beer, chatting about things in the capital. Hu Long mostly asked Ye Tianchen for advice on how to improve his skills. Ye Tianchen was not stingy. Although he was an ability user and focused more on enhancing his ability to use powerful moves, the ultimate goal of any energy enhancement was to strengthen oneself. Whether it was an ability user or a martial arts expert, they all trained their physical bodies. In simple terms, ability users harnessed natural energy to refine themselves, while martial arts experts refined themselves through internal energy cultivation. Both methods had similar effects. Therefore, Ye Tianchen taught Hu Long some simple methods to strengthen his body.

At this time, in a very special villa area in the capital, a large mansion in the center was still brightly lit. It was the old residence of the Qin family.

This villa area was considered special because the residents were either high-ranking officials in the capital or powerful families and major forces in the nation. Only they could enjoy such treatment. Even the Luo family could not afford it, let alone the declining Ye family.

In a villa in the southeast corner of the Qin family's old residence, a middle-aged man with a somber expression was looking forward, frowning as if deep in thought. Below him was a young man dressed in designer clothes. They were father and son. The middle-aged man was Qin Taoyuan, and the young man was Qin Heng. The two had just received news that their lackey, Li Tie, had been killed.

"Heng, what exactly happened? How could a useless person like Li Tie suddenly be killed?" Qin Taoyuan looked at his son Qin Heng and asked.

"Father, I, I don't know the details. I, I just heard it from the reports below..." Qin Heng's nose twitched with each word, as if he had just taken drugs.

Slap!

Qin Taoyuan slapped the table and scolded harshly, "You spend all day on those things, playing with female celebrities. Can't you be more ambitious and think about your future?"

Qin Heng, seeing his father so angry, seemed to be used to it. He sat down on the sofa, crossed his legs, and took out a cigar. The cigar was already laced with something to get him high. He couldn't control his addiction and wanted to smoke it.

Seeing his son's state, Qin Taoyuan was furious. He walked over and slapped the cigar out of Qin Heng's hand, stomping on it and continuing to scold, "Can you wake up? It's already this late. Do you want to ruin your life with this stuff?"

"Father, why are you so angry? The Qin family is under your control. You only have me as a son, and you'll definitely pass the Qin family to me. With the power of the Qin family, who would dare to offend us? A life of luxury and no worries, why worry so much? It's better to have some fun and enjoy women. How great is that!" Qin Heng took out another cigar from his pocket and lit it before Qin Taoyuan could stop him.

"You... Do you know that next month you are supposed to be engaged to Qi Ruxue from the Qi family? If the Qi family sees you like this, the engagement might be in trouble!" Qin Taoyuan shouted in anger.

"Qi family? Father, the Qi family is not as powerful as the Qin family. If it weren't for the fact that Qi Ruxue is said to be as beautiful as the top beauty in the capital, Liu Rumei, I probably wouldn't agree to the engagement. But it's good to try and see what Qi Ruxue is like. If possible, getting Liu Rumei would be even better!"

Qin Heng's words became more and more lewd and outrageous. Whenever he talked about women, his eyes would light up. In the capital, the Qin family's power was not the greatest, but it was not insignificant. The lecherous Qin Heng had raped countless women. He had once raped and tortured an 18-year-old girl to death, causing public outrage, and the state had imprisoned him for five years.

After being released from prison, Qin Heng did not repent but became even more ruthless. As long as he wanted a woman, he would find a way to get her, whether by coercion, seduction, or drugging and kidnapping. He would always get what he wanted, showing no humanity.

A slap landed on Qin Heng's face, stunning him as he was smoking the laced cigar. Before he could react, he was scolded harshly by Qin Taoyuan.

"Are you crazy? Do you want to ruin the Qin family? What kind of existence is the Liu family? Old Liu is a vice-national leader. I'm warning you, don't even think about Liu Rumei, or no one can save you!" Qin Taoyuan scolded harshly.

Hearing his father's words, Qin Heng pouted. Honestly, he wanted to get close to Liu Rumei, the top beauty in the capital. Which man wouldn't want to be with her? If it weren't for the power of the Liu family, the reckless Qin Heng might have dared to make a move on Liu Rumei.

"I won't dare to think about Liu Rumei, but that damn Ye family's useless son actually saw her. I really want to strangle Ye Tianchen with my own hands. And I don't understand why we have to be engaged to the Qi family when they are not as powerful as the Qin family..." Qin Heng said, somewhat annoyed.

"You know nothing. The Qi family may not be as powerful as the Qin family, but in this election, the Qi family has connections in high places and might be able to help us. Do you understand?" Qin Taoyuan shouted at his son, unable to contain his anger.
