Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Chen did not think too much about it and walked straight toward the Zhu family’s villa.

When he reached the door, two cold voices rang out at the same time, “No one is allowed to enter!”

Ye Chen did not take the implied threat to heart. He smiled.

“I’m looking for Zhu Zixuan, I’m her friend.”

However, the two of them ignored Ye Chen.

Of course, Ye Chen would not force his way in. Although he was not afraid of these people, if the Zhu family was in trouble, his sudden appearance might cause whoever was acting against them to become trigger-happy.

Ye Chen pondered the matter for a few moments, and decided to use his connections instead.

There were only two useful people in this regard, which were Ying Qing and Bai Libing.

He did not have Ying Qing’s number, so Bai Libing was the only option. He trotted off to a corner to give her a call.

“Ye Chen… Why are you calling me?”

Bai Libing’s voice could be heard from the other end of the call.

“There’s something I need to trouble you with,” Ye Chen said.

Eh?

Bai Libing was stunned.

Ye Chen was so strong, yet he somehow needed her help?

“Tell me… I’ll definitely help if I can.”

“Do you know what happened to the Zhu family in River City? I was heading to the Zhu family’s villa, but I was stopped outside,” Ye Chen said.

Naturally, Bai Libing did not know about the Zhu family’s affairs, but this was something she could help with.

“Wait at the entrance. I’ll contact someone and he’ll come over to help you.”

The call ended there.

About ten minutes later, a car with a special license plate drove into the Zhu family’s villa.

A middle-aged man with a stoic face got out of the car and ran toward Ye Chen.

“Mr. Ye, Miss Bai asked me to come.”

Ye Chen nodded. She was really quite efficient.

The middle-aged man did not waste any time and went straight to the door. He took a look at the two people guarding the door and took out something from his pocket.

When they saw what it was, the two guards were stunned and quickly stood at attention. They were about to speak when the middle-aged man gave them a look, which told them to shut their mouths.

“Mr. Ye, let’s go in together,” the middle-aged man said to Ye Chen.

“Alright,” he replied.

Then Ye Chen accompanied the middle-aged man into the living room of the Zhu family’s villa. He discovered that the living room was almost completely surrounded.

Zhu Rende, Zhu Zixuan, and a couple were sitting on the sofa at the center of the living room. The couple were probably Zhu Zixuan’s parents.

Zhu Zixuan saw Ye Chen immediately and exclaimed, “Mr. Ye!”

Zhu Rende raised his head when he heard the voice, and Ye Chen noticed that his eyes were sunken in and his face was pale. It was as if he had aged more than ten years.

How did Zhu Rende end up like this in just a few days?

Ye Chen walked over and sat on the sofa.

Those people wanted to stop Ye Chen but when the middle-aged man took out his identification, they stopped.

“Elder Zhu, what happened?”

“Mr. Ye, I’ve caused you trouble. Please don’t get involved in this matter. I’ll take care of it myself.”

Zhu Rende’s voice was a little hoarse.

Zhu Zixuan quickly scooted over to Ye Chen and said excitedly, “Mr. Ye, it’s like this. A few days ago, a big shot came to River City from the South. He wasn’t feeling well, so he came to our Virtuous Benevolence Hall to get some medicine. However, who would’ve thought that there would be a problem with the medicine? I remember that Grandpa personally chose those herbs and checked them several times. There was no Sky Poison Grass at all, but when that important person took it, there was a problem…”

Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly. It was obvious that something had gone wrong after the transaction had been made. The medicinal herbs had been swapped. The Zhu family would not be stupid enough to do something that would taint their reputation.

As for who performed the deed, it was no longer important. The most important thing was to save the Zhu family.

Although the Zhu family did not mention which big shot it was, seeing the armed forces in the villa, the person had to have a high position.

“How’s that guy’s condition?” Ye Chen asked.

Zhu Rende’s body trembled as he shook his head.

“He’s still being resuscitated, but the problem is very serious. If anything happens to him, not only will the Zhu family of River City be done for, but the Zhu family of Jiangnan Province will also be…:”

“Sigh… Who is the one trying to harm our Zhu family?”

“Where is he? As long as he’s still breathing, I can save him,” Ye Chen stood up and said seriously.

As soon as he said that, the eyes of everyone in the room were fixed on him.

Different expressions of shock, astonishment, disbelief, and ridicule were on their faces.

He could save him?

Yeah, right!

He was past the point of saving!

Zhu Rende was in a daze.

Although Ye Chen had bought medicinal herbs from the Virtuous Benevolence Hall, the medicinal herbs he bought were all for cultivation. Naturally, no one would mistake him for some kind of divine doctor.

In terms of martial strength, Zhu Rende would not hesitate to believe Ye Chen, but this was a whole other matter!

A grandmaster could kill, but could not save anyone medically.

Zhu Zixuan’s father, Zhu Weifeng, could not stand it anymore. He said to Zhu Rende, “Dad, things are already in a mess. You shouldn’t allow an outsider to meddle in our affairs and add to the mess.”

Zhu Zixuan’s mother, Jiang Yali, also chided Zhu Zixuan, “Zixuan, is this the person you called just now? Don’t you think our Zhu family is miserable enough? Right now, that person is still undergoing emergency treatment. What’s the use of this immature brat interfering?”

Ye Chen ignored the two of them and stared at Zhu Rende.

“Elder Zhu, if you trust me, I’ll do what I said. If you don’t believe me, I’ll leave now.”

Ye Chen wanted to help the Zhu family out of friendship, but it was not his obligation or duty. He would leave the choice to Zhu Rende.

Zhu Rende hesitated, but at this moment, Jiang Yali interjected, “Dad, don’t be silly. Do you really want to trust some kid who probably hasn’t even grown hair down there? Who knows…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Zhu Rende slammed his palm on the table and glared at Jiang Yali.

“Shut up! I have the final say in the Zhu family! Do you think you are qualified to insult Mr. Ye? Apologize to Mr. Ye! Otherwise, leave the Zhu family immediately!”

Jiang Yali was dumbfounded. She had never seen the old man so angry before. She quickly lowered her head and apologized, “Mr. Ye, I’m sorry…”

After that, Zhu Rende looked at Ye Chen and gritted his teeth.

“Mr. Ye, I choose to believe you.”

He wanted to take a gamble! The Zhu family’s fate was on the line, and Ye Chen might be the only one who could rescue them from this predicament.

“Alright, where is that person? Take me there now.”

Ten minutes later, the car stopped in a quiet location.

There was only one building here. It looked like a private hospital, but it was heavily guarded.

With the middle-aged man that Bai Libing sent over, everything became much easier.

However, everyone in the Zhu family was bound and kept under close watch.

They took the elevator to the sixth floor of the hospital, and as they approached, Ye Chen could sense the energy of several ancient martial arts experts.

Outside the operating room, Ye chen saw four men and three women. They were quite old and were likely the children of the old man who was being operated on inside.

Naturally, these people noticed Zhu Rende.

“F*ck! How dare you show your face here! Speak! Who asked you to poison my dad? If anything happens to my dad, I’ll make sure that everyone in the Zhu family is buried with him!”

One of the burly men rushed over with bloodshot eyes.

His footsteps were accompanied by the sound of wind, and his qi swept across the surroundings.

Ancient martial artist!

The man threw a punch at Zhu Rende in fury.

Everyone’s expression changed.

Zhu Rende’s body would not be able to withstand this punch!

Just as the fist was about to land on Zhu Rende’s face, Ye Chen reached out and caught the powerful fist.

“You have no right to make a move before the person inside awakens..”
