"Dragon King, they... have been captured. While you were unconscious, Luo Chen surrounded the area with his men. The three of them were no match for him and were defeated by Luo Chen's subordinates without any chance to fight back."

"What!"

Ye Lin's eyes widened, almost bloodshot, and his body heaved with excitement, his breathing becoming heavy and labored.

"Is everything you're saying true?"

“It’s absolutely true. I even went back to check it out myself, but by the time I got there, it was too late. The three of them had been taken away and taken to the supervisory bureau.”

Ye Lin fell silent.

This Luo Chen is really cunning; he actually launched a sneak attack while he was unconscious.

This is unsportsmanlike conduct; they're taking advantage of his lack of evasion skills.

Ye Lin was furious; he wished he could kill Luo Chen right now, otherwise he really couldn't swallow this anger.

Xu Fei then continued, "Dragon King, Luo Chen left you a message."

"What did you say?"

"When they left, I secretly looked at the painting Luo Chen left on the wall. It said... Ye Lin, you're a big rat. If you have the guts, come out here. I'll give you a handicap."

"puff!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Lin could no longer hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The person collapsed onto the hospital bed.

"Dragon King, don't get agitated! Luo Chen is just being sarcastic. You must pull yourself together, Dragon King!"

"..."

How could I not be excited?

Luo Chen even dared to call him a rat.

As the Dragon King, doesn't he have any pride?

"Luo Chen...you bastard, I won't let you get away with this!"

Ye Lin's eyes were bloodshot, his teeth were clenched, and his face was flushed red with anger.

"Dragon King, calm down. Luo Chen will definitely not let him go. We'll deal with him when the time comes," Xu Fei comforted him from the side.

Ye Lin nodded. Xu Fei was right. Getting angry now was useless. Only when he recovered could he swallow his anger.

"Xu Fei, you're right, I really shouldn't have been angry."

Ye Lin slowly sat up and leaned against the headboard.

"In the current situation, we are at a great disadvantage. Mai Yongchang, Raguel, and Raziel have all been arrested, which makes things even worse."

"Dragon King, what are your thoughts?"

"I have ideas, of course."

Ye Lin thought for a moment: "Our first priority is to rescue Mai Yongchang, Raguer, and Raziel. Every extra person means more strength. Besides, they were arrested because of me, so it's only right to rescue them."

"Ah, this..."

"What's wrong?"

Xu Fei started stammering again, and Ye Lin's brow twitched. He had a bad feeling. Xu Fei's behavior before had already caused a problem, and now it was like this again. Could something else be wrong...?

"Dragon King, I think we don't need to save them."

"What happened? Did something happen to them?" Ye Lin asked anxiously.

"no."

Xu Fei shook his head, looking at Ye Lin with pity, and slowly said, "They have only betrayed us; they are no longer the Dragon King's people."

boom!

This sentence.

Ye Lin was so shocked that he froze.

"What did you say……?"

"They... betrayed us. I found out that they've told me everything they know. It seems they've been mistreated. They told me everything before anyone even asked."

"..."

Ye Lin was numb.

His body leaned weakly against the headboard, his head against the wall, his eyes staring blankly at the ceiling.

Betrayal, yet another betrayal.

His subordinates, the most loyal twelve-winged seraphim, actually betrayed him one by one.

First there was Raphael, then Remiel and Sariel, and now it's Mai Yongchang, Raguel, Raziel, one after another...

Ye Lin looked at Xu Fei blankly.

"Xu Fei, would you betray us?"

Xu Fei scratched his head blankly: "Dragon King, why are you asking this again?"

"Yeah, why would I ask again?" Ye Lin said with a self-deprecating laugh.

Too many people have betrayed him; he's become numb to it all.

Asking Xu Fei again now is just a way to get some comfort.

Xu Fei said, "Don't worry, Dragon King, I will not betray you."

When Xu Fei, with his honest demeanor, patted his chest and said these words, it inspired an extraordinary sense of trust.

Ye Lin's face regained some color after hearing these words.

"Yes, Xu Fei, I believe you!"

"Oh, right, Dragon King, I forgot to tell you about Michael."

"What's up?"

"Um...this..."

Xu Fei stammered again and again. Ye Lin quickly pressed his chest, feeling his heart pounding, but couldn't suppress the twitching of his brows.

There's always a problem in this situation.

The next second, Xu Fei honestly said, "Michael and the others have also betrayed us."

"puff!"

Even with such preparation, Ye Lin still couldn't hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Ye Lin, limp and powerless, stretched out his hand, his eyes trembling, and pointed at Xu Fei with a shaky finger.

"You fucking..."

Can you please finish your explanation in one go?

Ye Lin, so angry that he vomited blood and fainted, didn't even finish his sentence before passing out.

Before he lost consciousness, he heard Xu Fei muttering to himself.

"Why is the Dragon King coughing up blood again? I didn't say anything wrong. If I tell him again, and Michael confesses everything, he'll just have to stay in bed longer..."

Xu Fei, you really are loyal, aren't you? You came here specifically to betray me!

Before losing consciousness, Ye Lin roared with rage!

[...]

When Ye Lin woke up again, it was already night.

Xu Fei was not in the room; he was the only one left.

Ye Lin, now recovered, stared blankly at the ceiling.

What exactly is going on here?

Michael actually betrayed us. As a wise man of the Dragon King's Palace, he was exceptionally intelligent and always the one scheming against others. He had never failed.

It's unbelievable that someone like that would betray us.

Could it be that he's like this because Luo Chen caught him?

Thinking about it carefully, every single thing that led to his subordinates' betrayal was related to Luo Chen.

They were clearly people he didn't take seriously, just ants he could easily crush. Where did they get the audacity to provoke him?

They even called him a rat!

But thinking about what has happened recently.

Ye Lin fell silent.

He discovered that he would fail at anything related to Luo Chen.

It seems that nothing has ever been successful.

What exactly went wrong?

Ye Lin got out of bed and went to the toilet, still puzzled by the problem.

But what he understands is that Luo Chen is his greatest nemesis. As long as Luo Chen lives, nothing will be peaceful for him, and nothing will go smoothly.

Thinking of this.

Ye Lin stared fiercely at the toilet in front of him and said coldly, "Just wait, Luo Chen. Once I'm better, I'll see how I deal with you. I'll make you regret choosing to oppose me."

He uttered this cathartic statement.

A sudden urge to urinate struck, and Ye Lin temporarily set aside his thoughts, preparing for a pleasant urination.

But the next second, his movements froze.

He stared in disbelief at his hands, which were wrapped in gauze.

"What's going on?!"

When he woke up in the afternoon, his hands weren't bandaged. When he woke up in the evening, he hadn't noticed before, but now he realized that his hands were wrapped into two white cloths... sticks!
