CHAPTER 562: REVISED: CHAPTER 562 LONGWANG VILLA AREA

Hearing King Yan’s words, the Sunan King fell silent.

As a ruler of his domain, what schemes and conspiracies had he not seen?

After all these years, holding his ground in the region.

He had never paid much attention to the infamous Yama Hall.

The Sunan King had even heard Dragon Teeth’s Duan Nanye mention that Su Jiu’er and a young man named Ye Guichen had entered Jinling.

The Sunan King did not wish to interfere in Dragon Teeth’s matters, and he trusted that Duan Nanye would have sound judgment.

How could such a sudden turn of events happen?

The Sunan King was not afraid of a clear threat.

The Su Family would never back down.

But in this situation, the Sunan King found himself at a loss for what to do.

King Yan did not utter a word.

He had the Sunan King firmly in his grip.

After a long silence, the Sunan King spoke up: "Hand the phone to Jiu’er."

King Yan waved the phone, bringing it to Su Jiu’er’s ear: "Your grandfather wants to talk to you."

Su Jiu’er burst into tears, unable to stop crying. Before the Sunan King could speak, she shouted urgently, "Grandfather, don’t worry, I won’t let him succeed!"

The Sunan King’s voice also choked up slightly, though he tried to hide it: "As long as you understand. Jiu’er, if you never see Grandpa again, will you blame him?"

Understanding her grandfather’s concern, Su Jiu’er managed a tearful smile: "Grandpa, I will always be your granddaughter!"

Her resolve to accept death was firm!

King Yan took the phone again.

"If anything happens to Jiu’er, I will make sure you suffer a fate worse than death!"

The Sunan King said no more, hanging up the phone and not wasting another word with King Yan.

King Yan’s face darkened.

He had heard such threats countless times.

They were of no consequence to him.

He hadn’t expected the Sunan King to treat Su Jiu’er as a pawn.

Upon further thought, this seemed like the best option.

But the corner of his mouth curled into a cold smile.

It would not be that easy.

If Su Jiu’er became pregnant, he’d see how the Su Family would respond.

"Go, get the medicine." King Yan ordered directly.

He lifted Su Jiu’er’s chin with a smile: "Miss Su, I will take good care of you!"

...

Southwest.

The Su Family.

The Sunan King hung up the phone.

His face was grim as if a storm was about to break.

"What is Duan Nanye doing!" The Sunan King had a good relationship with Dragon Teeth and regarded Duan Nanye as a junior, which is why he sent Su Jiu’er and Su Ze to Dragon Teeth for their growth.

But unexpectedly, Su Ze was the incompetent one, losing his head and now in confinement, unlikely to be released in the next few years.

Putting Su Ze aside, Su Jiu’er was his most cherished granddaughter.

He had thought Duan Nanye would take care of her and not assign her any dangerous tasks.

But to his surprise, such an incident happened just a few days after she arrived in Jinling.

"Find Duan Nanye for me!"

The Sunan King ordered.

Immediately, someone dialed Duan Nanye’s number.

There was no answer.

The Sunan King grew increasingly agitated.

"Send Su Wu and some men to Jinling. Dig three feet if you have to, find that King Yan and bring him back. I want him to suffer a fate worse than death!"

...

On the other side, Ye Guichen had not yet reached Longwang Villa. The taxi driver was reluctant to drive any further.

"Sir, we can’t afford to provoke the residents of Longwang Villa. Last time, an old colleague of mine accidentally drove his car into the area, and his car was wrecked. He spent months in the hospital. You’re not far; please walk the rest of the way."

The taxi driver explained.

Though Ye Guichen didn’t know what Longwang Villa was, he nodded: "Alright, thank you."

After paying the fare, Ye Guichen looked up ahead.

The so-called Longwang Villa was actually a large complex of villas.

The surrounding environment was exceptionally serene, like a hidden paradise.

Moreover, the road ahead was heavily guarded, with security checkpoints every few steps.

Ye Guichen did not know why Chen Huang had brought Su Jiu’er here.

But if he rashly entered, he might alert the enemy.

While he was contemplating how to get in, his phone rang.

Looking down, he saw an unfamiliar number.

He picked up the call: "Who is it?"

"Duan Nanye." The other side identified himself: "Brother Ye, why are you at Longwang Villa?"

Ye Guichen was taken aback and immediately realized something: "You’re here too?"

"On your right, at the second-phase project under construction. Keep a low profile." Duan Nanye gave the address and quickly hung up.

Ye Guichen turned and saw another area to his right.

The villas there had already been built, though the landscaping was incomplete, and there were no security guards around.

After a moment’s hesitation, Ye Guichen quickly walked over.

As soon as he entered the second-phase area, someone stopped him.

"Follow me."

The man spoke with a sullen face, wearing a baseball cap, looking somewhat shady.

Without saying more, he turned and headed toward one of the villas.

Before entering the villa, Ye Guichen sensed several powerful auras inside, indicating they were all top experts.

Ye Guichen didn’t think twice.

He followed the man with the baseball cap into the villa.

But as soon as he entered, the man suddenly attacked.

With great force, aiming directly at Ye Guichen’s back as if to subdue him on the spot.

Since reaching the Innate Realm, Ye Guichen’s senses were far sharper than the average person’s. As the man moved, he quickly sidestepped, easily dodging the attack.

Then, he countered with a swift chop towards the opponent.

The man was shocked, not expecting Ye Guichen to retaliate while being ambushed, and hurriedly retreated.

Ye Guichen’s move, however, was a feint. Before the man could take two steps back, Ye Guichen closed in, his hand turning into a claw, seizing the man by the throat and lifting him up.

The man instantly felt helpless, grasping at Ye Guichen’s wrists in a futile struggle, sensing the immediate threat of death as Ye Guichen tightened his grip.

"Stop!"

Just then, a sharp voice called out from within the villa.

A woman approached quickly.

Glancing at the man with the baseball cap, she turned to Ye Guichen: "He’s one of us. Boss Duan is waiting inside for you."

"One of us?" Ye Guichen sneered: "He attacked me with a lethal move and you call him one of us?"

The woman was clearly embarrassed.

She opened her mouth: "Zhang Yang didn’t mean it, just let him go!"

Ye Guichen snorted and threw the man to the ground.

Gasping for breath, the man felt deeply humiliated, casting a resentful look at Ye Guichen.

Especially after glancing at the woman, he quickly lowered his head.

The woman glared at him, then led Ye Guichen inside the villa.

The villa was newly built and unfurnished, left in a bare state.

Soon, they reached a room resembling a storage space. The woman called out: "Boss, Ye Guichen is here."

Ye Guichen looked inside and mocked: "Boss Duan, it’s been hard finding you. How does it feel using me as a pawn?"

The room contained several computer monitors.

Standing in front of them was Duan Nanye.

Duan Nanye turned around and smiled awkwardly: "Brother Ye, I had no choice, I’m sorry, I’m really sorry!"

He stepped forward, giving Ye Guichen a hug, patting him on the shoulder.
