My disciple, you are now invincible. Go down the mountain and wreak havoc on the world!

"Spare you?" Ye Xunhuan sneered. "You just said you'd skin me alive to make a human skin drum, why didn't you think of sparing me then?"

He raised his foot and stomped hard on the Scorpion Hall Master's knee.

"Snap! Snap!"

Two crisp cracking sounds rang out.

The Poison Scorpion Hall Master let out a heart-wrenching scream as his two legs were brutally broken, the white bone fragments piercing through his skin and exposed.

"Ah—! My leg! My leg!"

"Shut up, it's too noisy." Ye Xunhuan frowned, then stomped on his hands, breaking them to silence him.

The Scorpion Hall Master was as obedient as a primary school student.

They didn't dare utter a sound.

"Okay, this is to teach you a lesson, so you know what you should and shouldn't say."

The Scorpion Hall Master was convulsing in pain, foaming at the mouth, and unable to speak.

"Go back and tell that damn sect leader of yours."

Ye Xunhuan threw him on the ground and stomped on his face.

"Within three days, bring everyone from the Ghost Doctor Sect to Jiangcheng to kowtow to my senior sister."

"If each of you cuts off an arm or loses a finger, I'll tear down your Ghost Doctor Sect's mountain gate and turn your dilapidated mountain into a public toilet."

"Otherwise, I'll personally go to the Ghost Doctor's Sect, extract all your bones, make them into wind chimes, and hang them at my door so I can hear them ring."

After saying that, he kicked the Poison Scorpion Hall Master out like he was kicking trash.

"Alright! Stop getting in my way, you're making this orange cat lose its appetite for sausages."

The Poison Scorpion Hall Master dragged his severed hands and feet and scrambled away.

The entire hall fell silent once more, with only the heavy breathing of Long Xiaotian and his bodyguards remaining.

They stared blankly at Ye Xunhuan, their eyes filled with awe and fear, as if they were looking at a demon king who had crawled out of hell.

Ling Jinghong walked to Ye Xunhuan's side, reached out and patted the dust off his clothes, and said irritably:

"Look at you, covered in blood again. You're always so impulsive, can't you be a little gentler?"

"Gentle?" Ye Xunhuan said with a grin, reaching out to pinch her cheek again. "I'm only gentle to my senior sister?"

"Ah—?" The senior sister blushed.

That jerk really knows how to make his sister happy.

Suddenly, the senior sister's face turned cold.

"Tell me? Which senior sister are you being gentle with?"

"Of course..." Ye Xunhuan chuckled.

"Of course... I'm being gentle with my senior sister."

"Hmph! That's more like it." Ling Jinghong's face was cold, but the corners of her mouth curved up, and her eyes were full of doting.

"Senior sister, wasn't I handsome just now? Don't you admire me a lot?"

"How about you give me a kiss as a reward?"

"Handsome my foot!" Ling Jinghong slapped his hand away, her face turning red again. "You're so frivolous."

"I should go now; there's a ton of military business to attend to at the border."

She took a black, specially made satellite phone out of her pocket and put it in Ye Xunhuan's hand.

"This is my private phone number, and it's on 24/7. No matter where you are or how much trouble you've gotten into, if you call this number, I'll be there for you no matter where you are in the world."

"Wow! Senior sister, you're so kind to me!"

Ye Xunhuan hugged his senior sister, his face full of emotion, and said, "I knew you loved me the most, senior sister!"

"Then I'll call you eight hundred times a day, wake you up in the morning, call you for lunch, and tell you bedtime stories in the evening. Let's see how you handle military affairs!"

"You dare!" Ling Jinghong glared at him, then turned and left.

If they're afraid of walking too slowly, they won't want to leave.

As she reached the door, she secretly glanced back, a sweet smile unconsciously curving her lips.

Ye Xunhuan shouted at her retreating figure, "Senior sister, remember to miss me! Otherwise, I'll go to the border tomorrow and tear down your tent!"

Ling Jinghong paused for a moment, then quickened her pace.

After Ling Jinghong left, Long Xiaotian finally came to his senses. He scrambled to Ye Xunhuan's feet and knelt down with a thud.

"Mr. Ye..."

"You...you are truly a god descended from heaven! I, Long Xiaotian, have lived for fifty years and have never seen anyone as powerful as you!"

"From now on, in Jiangcheng, you're like my own father! Wherever you tell me to go, I'll do it! I'll go through fire and water for you!"

"Alright, alright, stop kneeling and get up." Ye Xunhuan waved his hand dismissively.

"The floor is dirty, don't get my pants dirty."

"Oh, by the way, that white high heel by the door belongs to that girl from earlier. Could you pick it up for me?"

"Hey! Okay!" Long Xiaotian quickly got up, ran to the door, picked up Su Qingyuan's high heel, and respectfully handed it to Ye Xunhuan.

Just then, the club's doors were pushed open.

Su Qingyuan walked in, her steps uneven, and she was indeed holding a grilled sausage in her hand.

She didn't know why the God of War was angry and cleared the area. Ye Xunhuan could have helped her stay, but he wouldn't even do that small favor.

She lost a shoe while running away from the cleared area, and completely lost face.

"Ye Xunhuan, you bastard!" Su Qingyuan said angrily.

"Hey. Grilled sausage?" Ye Xunhuan's eyes lit up, and he reached out to grab it.

Su Qingyuan put her hands behind her back and glared at him: "Let's get this straight, what about the time you left me outside?"

"Oh, I was just worried you'd get hurt," Ye Xunhuan said with a grin, leaning closer. "I'll treat you to dog meat hot pot, and you can order as much tripe and duck intestines as you like, all you can eat!"

"Hmph!" Su Qingyuan then handed him the grilled sausage.

At this moment, Long Xiaotian came running over excitedly and presented it respectfully with both hands.

"Miss Su...is this the high heel you lost?"

Long Xiaotian bowed and stuck out his buttocks, looking respectful and subservient.

"Ah—??!" Su Qingyuan was terrified.

How could she dare to let the underground emperor of Jiangcheng serve her personally!

"Master Long, what's going on?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing," Ye Xunhuan chimed in with a grin.

Long Xiaotian dared not be so blind as to ruin the atmosphere.

She presented the high heel with both hands and quietly stepped aside.

Su Qingyuan was so shocked that her small mouth could fit a sausage.

What's wrong with Long Xiaotian today? When did he become so polite?

Su Qingyuan was completely baffled, so she simply stopped thinking about it.

She handed him the shoe, saying, "It's my shoe, please help me put it on."

Ye Xunhuan was more than happy to oblige, and with a grin, he helped her put on her high heels, even giving her ankle a squeeze before leaving.

"Ouch! You bastard!" Su Qingyuan blushed and kicked him.

Ye Xunhuan laughed heartily, stood up, took a big bite of the grilled sausage, and pulled her hand, leading her outside: "Let's go, let's go eat Goubao Hot Pot!"

Long Xiaotian quickly followed behind and personally opened the car doors for them.

On the bus, Su Qingyuan leaned back in her seat, looking at the night view outside the window. She would occasionally steal a glance at Ye Xunhuan, who was eating grilled sausage with great relish, and the corners of her mouth would unconsciously turn up.

Just then, Su Qingyuan's phone suddenly started vibrating wildly.

It was Su Zhenhai calling.

Su Qingyuan answered the phone, but before she could speak, Su Zhenhai's voice, trembling with sobs, came through the line.

"Qingyuan! Something terrible has happened! Our Su family is finished!"

"All our partners suddenly terminated their contracts! Banks are also collectively withdrawing loans! Our core building materials business is being suppressed by a group of people, and now all construction sites have stopped! Our cash flow has completely dried up!"

Su Qingyuan's face turned deathly pale instantly, and she almost dropped the sausage in her hand.

She bit her lip, her voice trembling slightly, "Second Uncle, don't worry..."

Ye Xunhuan handed her the grilled sausage in his hand and took the phone, holding it to his ear.

Su Zhenhai yelled into the phone, "How can I not be anxious?!"

"Their power is too great! We simply can't withstand it! If this continues, the Su Group will go bankrupt in just a few days! Our whole family will be sleeping on the streets!"

Ye Xunhuan hung up the phone and casually tossed it aside.

He pinched Su Qingyuan's cheek and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, it's not a big deal. So what if you go bankrupt? I'll support you. I'll buy you ten grilled sausages every day, as much as you want."

Looking at his carefree demeanor, Su Qingyuan felt a strange sense of calm settle down.

She sniffed and glared at him: "Who wants you to support them!"

Ye Xunhuan smiled, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, before quickly reverting to his usual carefree demeanor.

"Don't worry, with me here, the Su family won't fall."

"No matter who it is, if they dare to touch my woman, I will make them pay back with interest."
