Gu Lei couldn’t figure out the situation and left Minister Xiao’s office, returning to his position once again.
Ye Tian said with a chuckle, “See, I didn’t lie to you.”
“Thanks, Brother Tian,” Gu Lei suddenly understood.
He was no fool and knew that it must have been Ye Tian’s help that saved his bonus from being deducted.
“We’re brothers, saying that makes it sound like we’re strangers,” Ye Tian said lightly with a smile, without ntioning a word about disciplining Minister Xiao.
anwhile, in Jiang City, by the Wu River.
The northern wind blew over the surface of the river, making the water sparkle and ripples undulate.
The King of the Night stood by the river, his eyes like those of an eagle’s, staring at the water as if he could see through the layers down to the very bottom.
Silence.
The King of the Night remained silent for a long ti without speaking, creating an extrely oppressive atmosphere.
Only the wild birds by the river were chirping, sounding unusually dead, causing unease in one’s heart.
Ye Ying just stood by his side, not daring to make a sound.
Not long ago, the signal from the Shadow Assassin disappeared here.
The King of the Night had rushed here with Ye Ying to investigate, but sadly, they found neither the Shadow Assassin nor a body, only the ceaseless eastward-flowing river before their eyes.
Various signs indicated that the Shadow Assassin might very well have been buried underneath the river.
After a long while, the King of the Night let out a fierce sigh, saying, “I will make them pay for this sooner or later!” As he spoke, he suddenly kicked out, breaking a weeping willow at its trunk, causing the large tree to crash down with a roar.
“Master, what should we do now?” Ye Ying asked with respect.
“The Crystal Ball still needs over forty days.
I didn’t want to spook the quarry, but Ye Tian killed my man, and I cannot let this go so easily!” the King of the Night said with ferocity in his eyes.
“What does the Master suggest?” Ye Ying asked.
“Now that we’ve been exposed, there’s no need to hide anymore.
It’s ti to give him a taste of his own dicine!” The King of the Night said nastily, “Even if I can’t kill Ye Tian, I can’t let him rest easy.
The life of the Shadow Assassin must not be lost in vain!”
The Shadow Assassin was the King of the Night’s trusted Great General.
Now that Ye Tian had dealt with him, it was natural for the King of the Night to be furious.
Because of the Crystal Ball plan, the King of the Night originally didn’t want to alert Ye Tian, fearing it would backfire and ruin his own plan for revenge.
However, the death of the Shadow Assassin made the King of the Night so angry that he no longer wanted to hide and absolutely had to teach Ye Tian a harsh lesson.
Moreover, the King of the Night’s actions were also to win over people’s hearts.
Ye Ying knew all about the Shadow Assassin’s issue, and he didn’t want Ye Ying to think he was cold and heartless, so he had to punish Ye Tian.
“What is Master planning to do?
Your subordinate will do it imdiately,” Ye Ying said.
“We can’t rush this kind of thing; the King of the Night is no ordinary person.
To deal with him, we must plan carefully,” the King of the Night said after pondering a mont.
“First, let’s give him an appetizer, then move on to the main event.
He won’t let be comfortable, so I’ll make sure he suffers too.
We’ll see!”
“Master is wise!” Ye Ying imdiately fawned.
The river wind blew, causing the King of the Night’s clothing to flutter.
Shrouded in black, he seed even more sinister and ferocious.
At this mont, Ye Tian, who was at the Yun Corporation, was unaware that the King of the Night had begun plotting a new sche, launching another attack against him.
A shocking conspiracy was slowly brewing.
The lunch break ca quickly, and Ye Tian left work with Gu Lei to go to the restaurant to eat.
They ran into Bai Lan from the HR departnt.
The stunning Bai Lan was still captivating and flirted openly with Ye Tian, making other employees envious.
After lunch, Ye Tian returned to the break room.
Thinking of the King of the Night, that scourge, he found it hard to relax.
He had dealt with the Shadow Assassin, but the King of the Night, the mastermind, remained unscathed.
Having lost a Great General, it was very likely that he might strike at Ye Tian again.
“With the enemy in the shadows and in the light, I must be on my guard,” Ye Tian worried.
From the Shadow Assassin, Ye Tian had learned that the King of the Night was in Jiang City, lurking in the darkness, keeping an eye on him all the ti, ready to strike like thunder the mont he showed any weakness.
It would be difficult for Ye Tian alone to find the King of the Night, but for Wang Bingbing, it would be much easier.
Wang Bingbing was the Ice Snow Queen of Jiang City’s underworld, controlling half of the city’s underground world.
If she were to help in finding soone, even the King of the Night should be easy to locate.
Thinking this, Ye Tian did not hesitate.
He pulled out his phone, ready to call Wang Bingbing.
Just at that mont, the phone suddenly rang.
Ye Tian looked to see who was calling and it was actually Wang Bingbing.
“Speak of the devil,” Ye Tian smiled wickedly and answered the call.
“Our minds really do think alike.
I was just about to call you, and here you are calling .
Hey hey, my little maid, are you missing already?”
On the other end of the phone ca Wang Bingbing’s arrogant voice, “Ye Tian, feeling pretty smug, are you?
I wonder how much longer you can keep that up!”
Ye Tian was taken aback, as this was not the tone of a ek maid, but that of the haughty Ice Snow Queen high above.
This chick Wang Bingbing had so nerve, daring to speak to him like this today.
“My little maid, looks like you’re in need of so discipline again?” Ye Tian teased her in a playful tone.
“Don’t call a maid!
Ye Tian, listen up, your days are numbered!” On the other end of the phone, Wang Bingbing’s tone was icy cold.
“Let give it to you straight, I’ve hired a world-class expert to get rid of you.
You’d better clean your neck and just wait for death obediently!”
“World-class expert?
How tall are they?
Heh, one ter seventy, or one ter eighty?” Ye Tian said, utterly unconcerned, clearly not taking her words seriously.
Ye Tian had long been prepared for Wang Bingbing, this wild and untrainable horse.
Despite her usually proper deanor, she harbored malign intentions, constantly seeking to put him in the ground.
None of this was hidden from Ye Tian’s eyes.
It was precisely because he was ntally prepared that Ye Tian did not panic at all upon hearing Wang Bingbing had brought in an expert but instead made mocking remarks.
“You bastard!” Wang Bingbing was raging on the phone.
“Wait and see, Ye Tian, your end is not far off.
I’ll tell you the truth, I’ve hired one of the top ten experts from the Tian list.
This ti, you’re definitely done for!”
She emphasized the words “top ten of the Tian list” with extra force, as if fearing Ye Tian wouldn’t hear her clearly.
Everyone who moved in the Dark World knew what the Tian list ant.
Anyone who made it onto the list was a top-notch expert, and those who were in the top ten were incredibly rare super fighters.
To say the least, such super fighters could stir up a storm of blood and violence wherever they went, causing a sensation across the lands.
Ye Tian smiled indifferently, “Top ten of the Tian list?
Hmm, sounds pretty intimidating, but I wonder what their actual strength is like.”
“Keep laughing, laugh as much as you want.
You won’t be laughing much longer, because you’re going to die soon,” Wang Bingbing said coldly over the phone.
At this mont, in Wang Bingbing’s eyes, Ye Tian was as good as dead.
She had witnessed the prowess of Mr.
Hungry Tiger herself; describing it as unparalleled was not an overstatent.
Although Ye Tian was formidable, he was not worth ntioning compared to Mr.
Hungry Tiger, there was simply no comparison.
As long as Mr.
Hungry Tiger made a move, Ye Tian’s death was certain.
“My little maid, do you really want dead that badly?
Heh, don’t forget you’re my woman.
If I truly die, won’t you be a widow?” Ye Tian’s words left Wang Bingbing speechless.
“Asshole, who’s your woman?
You better explain yourself clearly!” Wang Bingbing was instantly furious.
Just then, Yun Xinyan walked over, seeing Ye Tian grinning and joking on the phone, and was imdiately displeased.
He had claid he wasn’t fooling around outside, but there she had him red-handed.
Let’s see what he could say now.
Ye Tian quickly hung up the phone.
“How dare you hang up on , Ye Tian, you just wait.
I’ll make sure you’re quartered!”
Wang Bingbing was livid on the spot.
She had wanted to drop Mr.
Hungry Tiger’s na to scare Ye Tian properly, to see what his reaction would be.
Mr.
Hungry Tiger had a fearso reputation, and undoubtedly Ye Tian had heard of him.
Wang Bingbing was really curious to see how Ye Tian would react upon hearing the man’s infamous na.
But that damn Ye Tian had the nerve to hang up on her.
Ye Tian was rather helpless, too.
He hadn’t even begun discussing the King of Hell when Yun Xinyan showed up.
For the sake of marital harmony, Ye Tian had to hang up the phone.
He could always talk about it another ti.
In Jiangcheng City, a high-end private club.
The spacious and well-lit dining room was filled with tables covered in exotic delicacies.
Silverware glinted on the tables, top-quality Australian lobster, finest fish maw from the East Sea, and the priciest blood bird’s nests were all available.
To entertain Mr.
Hungry Tiger well, Wang Bingbing had spared no expense; this single al cost a whopping hundred thousand yuan.
Only Wang Bingbing and Mr.
Hungry Tiger were seated at the dining table.
Those lowly servants didn’t have the honor of dining with an expert like Mr.
Hungry Tiger.
“This lobster has just been flown in and is very fresh.
Please, enjoy,” Wang Bingbing offered food to him personally.
Mr.
Hungry Tiger’s expression remained indifferent.
He was not pleased with the warm hospitality and found the al rather dull.
He was a man who valued his ti greatly; wasting ti was akin to wasting money.
He detested eating, especially lavish als, because in the ti spent dining, he could have killed many people and earned a lot of money.
Seeing Mr.
Hungry Tiger remain silent, Wang Bingbing felt sowhat awkward.
After the past few days, she had grown accustod to his way of doing things.
“There’s no need to hurry, sir.
One needs to eat well to have the strength to kill, right?” Wang Bingbing said, forcing a smile.
“You’re wrong.
Killing doesn’t necessarily require a full stomach, and being full doesn’t always an you’re capable of killing.” Mr.
Hungry Tiger had his own unique insights about killing.
“Eat too much, and you’ll slow down.
Sotis, not only will you not kill anyone, but you might also get killed by soone else!”
“Yes, yes, sir, that’s very wise indeed,” Wang Bingbing continued to smile submissively.
“A single word from you is worth ten years of study.”
Wang Bingbing didn’t dare et Mr.
Hungry Tiger’s piercing gaze.
He was like a razor-sharp knife, obvious and threatening.
Anyone who tried to probe his thoughts would not end well.
