Urban Martial Saint

When Yang Shitao received the call from Bai Liangcai, he was quite surprised. However, once he heard about Ye Qing’s current situation, he was overjoyed.

Yang Shitao asked in a deep voice, ”Are you sure Mr. Ye is really injured now?”

”One hundred percent!” Bai Liangcai said, ”He was shot in the right arm and was knocked unconscious in the confusion just now. If it weren’t for that woman, we would have already captured him. That woman is somewhat capable, but, if Boss Yang could send a few more men, she wouldn’t be hard to deal with.”

Yang Shitao, ”How much do you want for this information?”

”The Lin family offers five million.” Bai Liangcai intentionally raised the price from the Lin family.

”Ten million!” Yang Shitao said directly.

Bai Liangcai’s mobile phone nearly dropped, and his voice trembled, ”Boss Yang, you... you mean ten million?”

Yang Shitao said, ”If you can capture him alive, I can give you twenty million!”

Bai Liangcai said, ”Boss Yang, as long as the people you send are competent, capturing him alive won’t be difficult.”

”Don’t worry about things on this end, where is he now?” Yang Shitao said.

”Send someone to find me first, and I will take you to him!” Bai Liangcai laughed and said, ”Boss Yang, if it’s convenient, I would like to see the money first.”

”No problem!” A cold smirk crossed Yang Shitao’s lips as he said, ”Upon seeing Mr. Ye, you will receive five million. If he is seriously injured as you said, you will get another five million. If we can capture him alive, you can take an additional ten million!”

Bai Liangcai was extremely excited, ”It’s settled then. I’ll wait for you in Yang Village, the sooner the better.”

Yang Shitao hung up the phone, turned to the man beside him, and said, ”Find some of the most capable people; Ye Qing is injured, and this is our best chance. This time, we must capture him alive!”

”No problem!” The man paused, then said, ”Should we let He Ziqiang handle this?”

”No need.” Yang Shitao shook his head decisively, ”We can no longer keep He Ziqiang around; alive, he is always a major threat to me, and he must be killed as soon as possible!”

”Then I’ll go find the people from Fu Bang,” the man said, ”They would definitely love to kill this Ye Qing.”

”I want him alive. Don’t go to them, get the people from Tianqing Gang!” Yang Shitao said, ”The most prominent recently within Tianqing Gang is Third Hawk, this batch of people are very efficient, let’s go with them.”

The man nodded, agreeing with the choice of Third Hawk. Among the young men of Shenchuan City recently, Third Hawk belonged to the most visible and prominent group. Regardless of Ye Qing being seriously injured or not, even if he were unwounded, facing Third Hawk might be a tough fight. It was clear that Yang Shitao was prepared to seize this opportunity to deal with Ye Qing no matter what!

At the same time, He Ziqiang, who had escaped from the town, rushed to the villa that Yang Shitao had in the Southern Suburb.

Just as Ye Qing had said, He Ziqiang now had nowhere to run, and could only seek refuge at Yang Shitao’s place first.

Upon entering the villa, two men were sitting inside. When they saw He Ziqiang come over, they immediately stood up to greet him.

”Mr. He, right? It’s Boss Yang who instructed us to welcome you here,” one man said with a smile.

He Ziqiang frowned slightly, ”Where’s Yang Shitao?”

”Boss Yang is tied up with some things and can’t come over temporarily,” the man said, ”Mr. He, please give me your car keys first. I need to hide your car away to prevent it from being found here.”

Without suspecting anything, He Ziqiang handed over the car keys to the man. Meanwhile, the other man poured He Ziqiang a glass of wine, saying, ”Mr. He, have a drink to calm your nerves first.”

”Calm what nerves, as if it’s anything serious. I, He Ziqiang, have seen all sorts of situations. Back in Xiangjiang, how many police operations trapping me on Seal Mountain did I face? I was never afraid. This little situation now is nothing.” Though He Ziqiang said this, he still took the wine glass and took a sip.

”What’s this wine?” He Ziqiang took the bottle to look, saying, ”Why does it taste odd, has it gone bad?”

”Shouldn’t have,” another man poured a cup and tasted, ”Doesn’t taste odd to me?”

”How can it not?” He Ziqiang took another sip, tasting it in his mouth.

”It’s definitely odd, how long has this wine been open?” He Ziqiang said as he put the wine glass aside, ”I can’t drink this wine, get me a new bottle.”

The two men inside the room exchanged a glance and smiled, ”We only have this one bottle in the house at the moment, I’m sorry Mr. He, but you’ll have to make do with this bottle.”

”Damn it, how is Yang Shitao treating his guests!” He Ziqiang glared and said, ”Such a huge villa, and he’s hidden just this one bottle of red wine? When did Yang Shitao become so stingy?”

”Our boss isn’t stingy at all, he specifically instructed us to make sure, Mr. He, that you finish this bottle of wine no matter what!” Another man poured He Ziqiang a full glass and smiled, ”Come on, Mr. He, have another drink.”

He Ziqiang furrowed his brow, suddenly feeling that something was not quite right.

”What is Yang Shitao implying?” He Ziqiang tried to push the wine glass away, but he felt as if he had lost all strength in his body, unable to even lift his arm. He could only watch helplessly as the glass approached closer and closer to his mouth, until it began pouring wine directly into him.

”What are you... uh, you... what are you doing...” He Ziqiang tried to struggle, but he had no strength at all in his body, completely unable to move a muscle, only his mouth could still speak. At that moment, he finally realized the wine must have been spiked, Yang Shitao surely had drugged the wine.

”Where is Yang Shitao, let him come out to see me!” yelled He Ziqiang furiously. ”Despicable coward, to drug the wine like that, he dares to cross me, believe it or not, I’ll expose all his dirty secrets.”

”The boss won’t see you, he has ordered that you must finish this bottle of wine,” the man scoffed coldly. ”After you’ve finished, you can be free. Come on, Mr. He, cooperate!”

Unable to struggle, He Ziqiang was force-fed another large glass of wine, feeling his consciousness gradually blurring.

Through his hazy eyes, he seemed to see two people walking into the living room. Then, those two men were knocked down to the floor, and he faintly heard a woman’s voice: ”Wake him up.”

Soon, a bucket of cold water was splashed over He Ziqiang’s head, making him much more alert. When he opened his eyes, he saw that somehow, three women had appeared in the living room. The leader was a beautiful woman with a Fire Butterfly tattooed on her right breast, exuding a violent seduction.

On the living room floor lay seven or eight men, two of whom were lying in pools of blood; judging by the amount of blood, those two were definitely finished. Others, even if they weren’t knocked out, now lay on the floor not daring to move, not even daring to raise their heads.

Fear swept through He Ziqiang’s heart. Without being told, he knew this woman’s identity. Last time, Yang Shitao had sent him to kill Tian Hong, and in the end, he had never found Tian Hong; he had suspected that Tian Hong might not be dead. And if Tian Hong had survived, then the Fire Butterfly would likely come to Shenchuan City to find trouble with him.

He just hadn’t expected that day to come so soon. Moreover, to encounter the Fire Butterfly under such circumstances, he knew his chances were slim.

”It was Yang Shitao who instructed me to do it, I was just taking money to do a job,” He Ziqiang immediately distanced himself from the responsibility, facing the Xikou Fire Butterfly, even he, an international thief, felt his heart trembling.

”I know,” said the Fire Butterfly calmly.

Looking into the Fire Butterfly’s calm eyes, He Ziqiang felt a wave of panic and said, ”If you want revenge, you should go after him, it has nothing to do with me...”

The Fire Butterfly shook her head, ”You laid a hand on my people, it very much has to do with you!”

He Ziqiang’s complexion changed, he urgently said, ”But, I... I was just doing a job...”

The Fire Butterfly said, ”Before doing the job, you knew Tian Hong was one of my people.”

”This...” He Ziqiang was speechless. Before witnessing Huangfu Ziyu’s methods, he really hadn’t taken these two demonic women seriously. He always thought, a woman is just a woman, unable to accomplish much. Therefore, he dared to make a move on Tian Hong because he wasn’t afraid of the Fire Butterfly.

However, the last time Huangfu Ziyu entered Shenchuan City and killed the Tiger King with thunderous methods in just two hours, almost toppling the Fierce Tiger Gang, he truly understood the menace of this demonic woman. And since the Xikou Fire Butterfly was ranked alongside Huangfu Ziyu, even if lesser, it wouldn’t be by much. Since then, fear had begun in his heart.

And looking at the people lying around scattered in the living room right now, fear was the only word to describe his feelings!

”Knowing she was my person, yet you still went after her, which means, you truly didn’t regard me seriously,” the Fire Butterfly looked at He Ziqiang, ”Not taking me seriously, you must pay a price.”

”What... what price...” He Ziqiang stammered.

The Fire Butterfly stood up, grabbed He Ziqiang’s arms, and with a sudden twist, snapped both his arms. Her movements were even more precise than Ye Qing’s.

”Ah!” He Ziqiang let out a ghastly scream, intense pain almost making him wish he could roll on the ground. But he had no strength left in his body, not even enough to roll.

”From today onwards, consider both your arms completely useless. Between you and me, our grievances are now settled,” the Fire Butterfly stood up and said, ”Now, you still have a debt to help me repay!”

”What debt?” He Ziqiang asked, stunned. They had just said everything was settled, what debt did he still owe her?

The Fire Butterfly didn’t respond, she simply stood up and left. The two women with her came over, securely tied He Ziqiang with ropes, then covered him with a black cloth sack.

This was the method He Ziqiang himself had used when kidnapping others. He never imagined that one day, he would be treated in the same way.

The two women lifted He Ziqiang into the car outside, the Fire Butterfly glanced at the sack and asked, ”Where is Ye Qing?”

A woman replied, ”In the Zihe Hotel in Southern Suburb Zihe Town.”
