It's hard to say how long Lu Junzhuo had been knocked out.
When he woke up, he felt parched, lightheaded, and utterly miserable.
He instinctively reached for his phone, but found nothing, discovering that his pocket was empty.
"F*ck, where's my fire dragon fruit?"
Lu Junzhuo's face turned pale with anger.
Someone had actually stolen his stuff while he was unconscious?
He panicked and quickly checked his chest.
Thankfully, his dragon-patterned jade was still there, though for some reason it hadn't been taken.
The poison in his body had also been suppressed, which relieved him.
Although his injuries were still severe, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the bottleneck that had been holding him back at the peak of the Mystic Realm had started to loosen!
A certain acupuncture point that had previously been stuck had suddenly become more penetrable.
"Is this turning misfortune into fortune? Tang Yu, you're as good as dead."
He let out a loud laugh, even without the Refined Nine Trips pill, what did it matter?
The Earth-level Realm was just around the corner!
In high spirits, he stood up and prepared to leave the park.
Then, a sharp pain came from his behind.
He didn't pay much attention, thinking it was just an old injury.
With a wicked grin on his lips, he planned to return and concentrate on healing.
…
At the He Family Private Hospital.
After some time spent recuperating, Ye Chen's injuries had fully recovered.
A few days ago, even the smallest movement like letting out a fart hurt like hell.
It felt like a firecracker had been stuffed up his ass, ready to explode at any moment.
During this period of recovery, he had also been anxiously cultivating every day.
And finally, today!
He had taken a giant leap forward in his cultivation and successfully reached the peak of the Mystic Realm.
Setbacks were merely the nutrients of growth.
Standing in the small garden below the private hospital, he quietly contemplated his next move.
At this moment, two figures approached quickly from behind.
They stopped three meters away from him and called out in unison, "Dragon King."
The two were none other than Ling Han and Chi Yin.
Seeing the two women, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel lustful.
Having been bedridden for so long, unable to move, he had been bottling up quite a bit of frustration.
But he knew it wasn't the right time yet.
Once he had dealt with his current tasks, he could devour both of them without hesitation!
"You two have been working hard during this period of infiltration. How's the mission going?"
Ye Chen asked with his habitual wicked smile.
"We've successfully infiltrated the Tang Family's inner circles."
"We've obtained key confidential documents from Tang Corporation."
The two women reported respectively.
"Good, indeed worthy of being my right-hand women. With the both of you by my side, it's like having Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong at my side."
Ye Chen smiled with satisfaction.
The members of his Deadly Squad had betrayed him to follow Lu Junzhuo.
Dragon Fang was picking up soap in prison.
Fortunately, these two were still as reliable as ever!
Then he looked at the two women and said,
"A few days ago, something small went wrong with the plan, but overall, it's still under control."
"After being ambushed by a group of high-level experts, I turned misfortune into fortune and managed to break through to the peak of the Mystic Realm."
"Therefore, I've decided to change my plan. I'm not going to Yanjing yet, I'll stay in Su Hang for now."
The two women's expressions changed slightly upon hearing this.
This guy had actually managed to break through because of a setback?
However, out of habit, they both replied in unison, "Congratulations on breaking through, Dragon King. What's the next step?"
"Next, it's time to strike back. Both Tang Yu and Lu Junzhuo must die."
Ye Chen's face suddenly twisted with hatred.
These two deserved to die!
One had ruined his plan!
The other wanted to seize his throne as the Dragon King!
He looked at the two women and ordered, "Chi Yin, continue gathering crucial confidential information and make sure we can bring down Tang Corporation with one blow."
"Ling Han, infiltrate deeper into the Tang Family's inner circle, and when they're in chaos, set fire to their house and erase this family from Su Hang!"
"Yes!"
The two women replied in unison, their eyes flashing with coldness and killing intent.
"Go, wait for my signal after I've taken over the ancient martial arts factions in Su Hang."
Ye Chen waved his hand dismissively, indicating that the two women could leave.
During his time in the hospital, he had secretly done a lot of things.
Such as setting the stage for the upcoming ancient martial arts convention!
By taking over the ancient martial arts factions in Su Hang, he would have the leverage he needed to make a comeback!
Currently in Su Hang, the four great families had already formed an alliance around the Tang Family, joining forces to deal with him.
Given the situation, he had no choice but to change his plans.
Once he had taken control of the ancient martial arts factions, his first move would be to crush the Tang Family!
Breaking down this so-called alliance and letting them fall apart, even quarreling over interests and turning against each other!
By stirring the water, he would be able to regain control over Su Hang.
As for Tang Yu and Lu Junzhuo, he already had plans for their demise.
The thought of it made him burst into laughter.
He laughed at Tang Yu's lack of wisdom and Lu Junzhuo's lack of strategy!
…
After leaving the He Family Private Hospital, Ling Han and Chi Yin walked in silence, neither speaking.
Although their relationship was passable, the two were now viewing each other differently.
Both believed they were loyal to the Tang Family, while suspecting the other of being on Ye Chen's side.
In this way, their sense of distance towards each other had changed into hostility.
The orders Ye Chen had given today made them both nervous.
After walking for a while, Chi Yin was the first to make up her mind.
It was time to eliminate Ye Chen for the Tang Family!
She said,
"Ling Han, come with me for a moment, I need to discuss something with you."
"Sure."
Ling Han nodded with a smile and followed behind Chi Yin.
When the two women reached a relatively secluded spot, Chi Yin suddenly turned around and launched an attack.
She displayed an undisguised killing intent, her dagger flashing with cold light as it stabbed towards Ling Han's throat.
At the same time, Ling Han also executed a military dagger strike in retaliation.
After their weapons clashed, they quickly retreated two steps to create distance between them again.
Their gazes at each other were filled with wariness.
Did both of them want to ambush and kill the other?
"What are you doing?" Ling Han stared at Chi Yin coldly.
Why did she try to ambush and kill her?
Could it be that she discovered her betrayal of the organization?
"Nothing in particular, you're Ye Chen's lapdog, and I'm on the Tang Family's side. Killing you is normal."
Chi Yin sneered.
For the Tang Family.
That false, plastic sisterhood wasn't worth a single cent!
"Huh?"
Ling Han was instantly puzzled.
She looked at Chi Yin and frowned, "You're on the Tang Family's side?"
"Duh, my father was once the Tang Family's head of security, Tang Yu was extremely generous to me."
As Chi Yin spoke, she charged forward to attack again.
Ling Han almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
After blocking a few attacks, she cursed, "Stop fighting, I'm on the Tang Family's side too."
"Come on, do you think I'd fall for something so obvious?"
"What do I gain by lying to you? Don't you remember TY always comparing our differences? Wondering if it was because we ate different things that made such a big difference?"
"..."
Chi Yin suddenly felt angry and trembling with cold.
When she was in the office, she often overheard TY internally comparing the two of them and thinking about their differences.
And then she realized.
Could it be that Ling Han, just like her, could hear TY's thoughts?
