"I am the one who destroyed the Three Thousand Towers." Ye Xingchen raised an eyebrow.
"It's you?" Chen Tianqi was taken aback. He suddenly looked up at Ye Xingchen.
"Yes, it's me." Ye Xingchen nodded.
Chen Tianqi was dumbfounded and couldn't come to his senses for a moment. After a long while, he murmured, "It is said that the lonely peak where the Three Thousand Tower is located was cut in half by an extremely strong sword aura. This sword aura almost reached the third level of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. It was only one step away from becoming a saint."
"You're so young, yet you've already... reached the Saintly realm?"
"No, not at all." Ye Xingchen smiled: "The Three Thousand Towers kills people without hesitation and harms the common people. That sword strike was launched with anger, so it was used to its fullest extent. Therefore, it was not as exaggerated as the rumors say."
Chen Tianqi stared at Ye Xingchen for a long while before shaking his head and saying, "A person like you can only be a friend, not an enemy."
"Oh, may I take your words as a gesture of goodwill?" Ye Xingchen smiled slightly.
“Yes, we can. We can talk about expanding into overseas markets when we decide to do so. I have connections and resources overseas, and we can cooperate then,” Chen Tianqi said.
"Okay, then we'll have a good talk later." Ye Xingchen nodded with a smile.
"Also, in the future, I might be your uncle," Chen Tianqi said after thinking for a moment.
"If you can straighten out my aunt, then I'll thank you." Ye Xingchen grinned.
He went back to find Su Ruochu, intending to leave together; she had been waiting for him in the parking lot.
However, it seems she has encountered some trouble.
A young man driving a bright red Ferrari was seriously harassing her, and he was accompanied by several accomplices who drove McLarens and Lamborghinis. It seemed to be a group of rich second-generation kids who were into cars.
Of course, Ye Xingchen also recognized the one in the lead; he was Chen Hao, Ling Yan's suitor, the guy who had been beaten up by Xia Hanyue at the club last time and had to slink away.
"Haha, Miss Su, it's been so long since I've seen you. Why aren't you with your master anymore? Do you think you should find a man? Do you think I'm suitable?" Chen Hao surrounded Su Ruochu with his men, his face full of lewdness.
Su Ruochu is a well-known talented woman in Yanjing's social circles, and the news of the Su family being wiped out more than ten years ago is still widely circulated in Yanjing.
Moreover, she has a pretty face and an elegant demeanor, but unfortunately she doesn't show up in the entertainment circle much. Today, Chen Hao went out with a group of his cronies and happened to run into her here, which led to them getting entangled.
Su Ruochu had learned to smile, but her smile was selective. She glanced coldly at Chen Hao and uttered a single word: "Get lost."
"Haha, a descendant of the scholarly Su family, actually telling people to get lost? That's not right, Miss Su." Chen Hao became even more audacious: "Aren't you ruining the image of your Su family by doing this?"
Su Ruochu stared coldly at Chen Hao, her eyes filled with even more icy intent.
"Whose dog is out on its own again?" Just then, Ye Xingchen walked over and shielded Su Ruochu behind him.
"Ye Xingchen, it's you again." Chen Hao's expression changed.
"Yes, it's me. What's wrong?" Ye Xingchen stared at Chen Hao: "Your great-grandfather, Old Master Chen, was a very important figure. How come his descendants have all stooped to bullying girls?"
"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. If you piss me off, even your aunt can't protect you," Chen Hao said through gritted teeth.
“You’ve got one thing wrong.” Ye Xingchen slowly shook his head: “When I, Ye Xingchen, came out into the world, I always relied on myself, not on others.”
"What are you pretending for? If you hadn't come back to your family, would you, this bastard, be where you are today?" Chen Hao said with a sneer. "Besides, your family won't accept you anymore, and you still have the nerve to show off in the industry?"
"You should be glad my aunt didn't slap you across the face last time she came." Ye Xingchen stared at Chen Hao: "If you know what's good for you, get out of here now, immediately."
"Who the hell do you think you are? The prince? I have more men than you today, and no one will dare to say a word if I kill you." Chen Hao roared, "In my eyes, you're just a bastard."
"Bastard? You can try repeating what you just said." Ye Xingchen laughed instead of getting angry.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with me repeating it again? You're just a bastard." Chen Hao's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Without Xia Hanyue around, he didn't take Ye Xingchen seriously at all.
A murderous glint suddenly flashed in Ye Xingchen's eyes. He moved his hand and gently placed it on Chen Hao's body.
In an instant, an extremely powerful force struck Chen Hao's chest.
Chen Hao screamed in agony. His body was thrown backward as if he had been hit by a speeding car, then crashed heavily into the wall with a thud before bouncing back.
*Pfft...* Blood gushed from Chen Hao's mouth as if it were free.
He rolled on the ground screaming in pain. Although Ye Xingchen had held back, his kick was still enough to displace his internal organs and cause him serious injury.
"Young Master Chen, are you alright?" A group of rich kids panicked and rushed forward to help Chen Hao.
"No, don't move! Call an ambulance! Call an ambulance now! My back is broken!" Chen Hao lay on the ground, howling like a pig being slaughtered.
"Call an ambulance! Get some people over here! Damn it, he dares to mess with Young Master Chen! We'll kill this kid today!" A group of rich kids shouted, pulling out sticks and other weapons from under the seats of their sports cars and crowding around Ye Xingchen.
Su Ruochu stretched out her hand and stopped these thugs.
"Su Ruochu, don't you dare meddle in other people's business. I'm going to beat this kid up today, and nobody can stop me." A group of thugs cursed loudly.
"They often insult you like this, don't they?" Ye Xingchen asked Su Ruochu.
"I'm used to it." Su Ruochu's expression was calm, but deep in her eyes, there was still a trace of pain that was hard to detect.
Even though the Su family was wiped out, and she was a talented woman from Yanjing, and even with Xia Jingyi protecting her, there were still many second-generation rich kids in Yanjing who insulted her.
She had always been very patient, firstly to avoid causing trouble for herself, and secondly because she was Xia Jingyi's assistant, and she was walking on thin ice in this kind of place, because the slightest carelessness could cause trouble for Xia Jingyi.
“From today onwards, you don’t need to be so cautious.” Ye Xingchen said in a deep voice, “When you can’t bear it anymore, there’s no need to bear it anymore. This is the second lesson I’m teaching you.”
"The Su family is a family of scholars, representing the integrity of Yanjing literati. Anyone who dares to speak disrespectfully will have their legs broken, I said."
"Okay." Su Ruochu slowly raised her head, a flame rising in her eyes.
"Go to hell, who are you trying to scare?"
"That's right, a bastard, a woman whose entire family was wiped out, do you think we'd be afraid of you?"
