Hearing Ye Luo’s words, Shen Changfeng’s eyebrows furrowed tightly as he fell into deep thought.

If he hadn’t seen the notebook before, Shen Changfeng would have certainly not hesitated to kill Ye Luo, but as Ye Luo had pointed out, now that he knew his identity, if he still killed Ye Luo, he would definitely provoke the Special Security Bureau.

As a mysterious organization of the Huaxia government, the Special Security Bureau held an extremely high position in the Land of Huaxia and possessed vast authority. If one of their members was killed by him, especially a member with the rank of major, and that member died at the hands of the Shen Family, even if the Shen Family was the leading family of Zhonghai, they could not avoid trouble and it might even adversely affect the development of the Shen Family.

One must understand that the Special Security Bureau could be considered a department that represented the authority of Huaxia. Killing a member of the Special Security Bureau was undoubtedly tantamount to confronting the nation.

Considering all these factors, the murderous aura surrounding Shen Changfeng gradually dissipated. However, now that his son had met such a miserable fate, if this matter were just left as is, Shen Changfeng found it difficult to swallow his pride.

Subsequently, Shen Changfeng’s eyes flashed a fierce light as he stared at Ye Luo and said, "Kid, although you are from the Special Security Bureau, injuring a member of the Shen Family and expecting it to just end there is not possible."

Whoosh!

After saying these words, Shen Changfeng’s body trailed a series of afterimages as he swiftly struck out with a palm. Ye Luo quickly reacted, but he was still hit by the palm, his body once again flying out and smashing brutally against the wall. Blood sprayed from his mouth as he slumped to the ground, limp.

"This palm is your punishment. Don’t let there be a next time, or I will certainly not spare you," Shen Changfeng coldly huffed, throwing the notebook in front of Ye Luo. He then had all the Shen Family members present in the suite leave the place.

Soon only Li Wanqin and Ye Luo remained in the suite. Ye Luo lay on the ground with a pale face, having sustained serious injuries.

Although Shen Changfeng had not used his full strength with that palm strike, it was still immensely powerful, injuring all the extraordinary meridians and collaterals within his body.

If it were not for the Gold Silk Soft Armor he was wearing, Ye Luo’s meridians would have been greatly damaged, which would have had a massive impact on his future cultivation — and this was precisely the outcome Shen Changfeng intended.

"Ye Luo!"

Seeing Ye Luo lying on the ground, Li Wanqin propped herself up and walked over to him. After some time, Li Wanqin had recovered somewhat and was able to move.

"Ye Luo, how are you? Are you alright?"

Li Wanqin helped Ye Luo up, her face full of concern. Tears filled her eyes, and she looked distressed.

After the series of events that unfolded that night, Li Wanqin had completely fallen for Ye Luo. She had already come to regard Ye Luo as her man, which is why she had been willing to sacrifice her life to shield Ye Luo from that bullet.

"I’m fine..."

Ye Luo shook his head and took a deep breath, circulating the Nine Yang Mystic Art. Nine Yang True Qi began to spread throughout his body, temporarily suppressing the injuries inside.

"Shall we leave here right away?"

Ye Luo said, getting to his feet with the help of Li Wanqin, and they quickly left the hotel.

Minutes after Ye Luo and Li Wanqin left the hotel, a flurry of police arrived on the scene. However, when they got to the presidential suite and saw what had transpired inside, they were all taken aback — the entire room was devastated and had become a complete ruin.

"Captain, what... what happened here?"

In the presidential suite, a police officer turned to look at a delicate-faced, curvaceous policewoman beside him, none other than Yang Bingning.

Yang Bingning’s eyes narrowed slightly as she surveyed the condition of the suite, her eyes flickered with an unusual light.

After leaving the ice glacier hotel, Ye Luo and Li Wanqin did not go home but instead checked into another hotel.

Given Ye Luo’s current condition, it was naturally not suitable for him to return to the villa, and he urgently needed a place to heal, so he could only stay in a hotel.

Li Wanqin supported Ye Luo as they entered the hotel room and settled him on the bed.

"Ye Luo, are you sure you don’t need to go to the hospital looking like this?"

Li Wanqin looked at Ye Luo with concern, her expression tense.

"My injuries won’t be helped by a hospital, I’m fine, you don’t need to worry about me. I need to heal now, you just rest aside."

Ye Luo said and sat cross-legged on the bed, then directly took out an elixir, none other than the Tianyang Dan he had refined earlier.

His body had suffered severe damage and was in urgent need of recuperation, and naturally, the Tianyang Dan was the best for this purpose.

After swallowing the Tianyang Dan, a surge of scorching energy spread instantly, flooding his limbs and bones, his entire body basked in the overwhelming strength released by the elixir.

Ye Luo’s body radiated a yellow glow that enveloped him, and a robust aura permeated the air around him.

Meanwhile, at the Shen Family residence in Zhonghai, the lights were on, and the whole place was filled with a depressive atmosphere.

Inside the Shen family hall, Shen Changfeng continuously puffed on his cigarette, the smoke veiling his face, but his expression was grim and his eyebrows tightly furrowed, emanating a dreadful aura.

Into the hall, the second elder of the Shen Family, Shen Changqing, strode in, his square face set in seriousness.

"Big brother, what exactly happened? How did Yun Long get injured, and who did it?"

Shen Changqing asked solemnly, looking extremely somber.

"Ye Luo did it," Shen Changfeng inhaled his cigarette and exhaled slowly.

"Ye Luo? The same Ye Luo from the Ye Family of Zhonghai who injured Yun Fei?"

Shen Changqing’s eyes narrowed, a flash of surprise crossing them.

"That’s him. Tonight, Yun Long and Shen Mo kidnapped one of his women, trying to use her as leverage against him, but they underestimated his strength. Shen Mo’s limbs are crippled, and even Captain Yan, whom I sent out, was left seriously wounded by him," Shen Changfeng said with a heavy tone.

"Is that kid so arrogant? Didn’t you take him down, big brother?"

"I intended to kill him, but I hadn’t expected him to be a member of the Special Security Bureau’s Mystic Group, and a major in rank at that, so I just left him seriously injured and didn’t kill him," Shen Changfeng took a deep drag of his cigarette, his eyes squinting to a slit.

"A member of the Special Security Bureau? So, the boy has such a special identity?"

Shen Changqing’s pupils shone with a sharp light, then he spat out, "By the way, how is Yun Long now?"

"Hua Lao is attending to him," replied Shen Changfeng.

Just then, an elderly man dressed in a white robe, with white hair and a white beard, walked into the hall from outside.

"Hua Lao, how is Yun Long doing?"

Upon seeing the old man, Shen Changfeng and Shen Changqing’s gaze turned to him. This elder was a well-known traditional Chinese medicine doctor in the Land of Huaxia and now served the Shen Family, treating those among them who were injured.
