Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 561: Chapter 560: [Forcing Me to Attack the Liu Family]

Ye Tianchen didn’t make a move against the members of the Falcon Unit because they hadn’t attacked him again either. Just like Ye Tianchen’s temper, he wasn’t a bloodthirsty person; however, if those ten members of the Falcon Unit kept attacking him over and over, he would not be courteous. Everyone’s tolerance has its limits.

Yong Chun Tai walked side by side with Ye Tianchen, moving forward. After about another five hundred meters, they still hadn’t reached their destination, which was starting to frustrate Ye Tianchen. Glancing at the time, it was almost one o’clock in the morning. He had matters to discuss with Liu Rumei and also needed to gather his brothers from the Thirteen Heavenly Kings. This delay was problematic.

”Yong Chun Tai, the Liu family estate is too vast. Why haven’t we arrived yet? I’m quite busy. After I meet Liu Rumei, I need to leave,” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but speak up.

”The Liu family estate is indeed large. Although you entered through the front gate and intimidated Zhang Shihao, and deterred the members of the Falcon Unit, I’m afraid the entire Liu family estate is now on high alert. Normally, we could’ve taken a tour car, but you, little guy, scared that option away,” Yong Chun Tai said with dissatisfaction.

”Then could we fly there?” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but look up at the sky and ask.

”The Liu family estate’s defense system extends three layers into the sky, which is incredibly strong. Even with your strength, breaking through these three layers would take some time, and it would take longer than if we just walked the rest of the way. If you’d like to try, you’re welcome to,” Yong Chun Tai said indifferently.

Ye Tianchen let out a flustered sigh. Indeed, from the moment he stood outside the Liu family estate, he had felt that their defenses were extremely formidable, not something he could easily breach. It would be challenging for anyone trying to break in from the outside, and even if they managed to sneak in, it would be troublesome to leave once these three layers of defense were activated. It appeared that the state’s protection of the Liu family estate was indeed very strict.

”Then let’s continue walking,” Ye Tianchen said, feeling dejected.

Yong Chun Tai gave Ye Tianchen a glance and then casually mentioned, ”The incident between you and the young miss back then was a misunderstanding. I believe you’ve conducted an investigation and found some clues. Both of you were the victims of that event.”

”Yong Chun Tai, are you worried I hold a grudge against Liu Rumei and might harm her because of what happened in the past?” Ye Tianchen asked with a smile.

Ye Tianchen clearly understood Yong Chun Tai’s words. Yong Chun Tai had watched Liu Rumei grow up since she was a child and served as her personal bodyguard. To outsiders, they might seem like master and servant, but when it was just the two of them, their relationship was like that of grandmother and granddaughter. Liu Rumei was not someone who put on airs and always showed great respect toward Yong Chun Tai. Therefore, Yong Chun Tai cherished Liu Rumei as if she were her own granddaughter and always had her best interests at heart. Her concerns were not without reason; the incident back then had been blown out of proportion, and both Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei were victims. Among them, Ye Tianchen had suffered the most, almost losing his life and living daily under the ridicule and insults of others, which was worse than being killed. Now, Ye Tianchen had undergone a transformation and had become a person whom various factions had to take seriously. His strength was inscrutable, and he had surpassed his own Yong Chun Tai in less than three months. If he really took action against Liu Rumei or the Liu family over the past events, the consequences would indeed be too great for some to bear.

”That’s right. What I want to tell you is, if the young miss hadn’t pleaded for you back then, you probably would have died long ago, and you wouldn’t be here today,” Yong Chun Tai said seriously.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Liu Rumei, sometimes feeling a bit envious of her for having someone like Yong Chun Tai who loved her like a grandmother while he could never enjoy such familial affection. In the era of the apocalypse on the star, as a Divine-level superpower, he protected the peace of the Human Clan. Despite having his friends, brothers, a woman he loved, and women who deeply loved him, these emotions couldn’t compare to the love of family. Reborn on Earth, Ye Tianchen cherished the familial love of having parents and a sister and would not allow anyone to trespass upon it.

”Rest assured, I have already clarified what happened back then. It was Long Teng’s young master who was behind the trickery. As for why he did it, I don’t know yet, but I suspect it’s related to old family grudges. I came to see Liu Rumei today because I have matters to discuss with her. Once we’re done, I’ll leave,” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

Yong Chun Tai nodded, clearly sensing that Ye Tianchen had indeed changed. He used to be a dissolute young master, causing trouble and fooling around all day, leading to his lack of skills and easy manipulation. Now, Ye Tianchen was calm and powerful, intimidating anyone from trifling with him. He had his own style, standing by reason rather than people.

”The young master of Long Teng is indeed a very mysterious character. Many people have only heard of his title but have never seen him. As for his real name and background, that remains unknown,” Yong Chun Tai added after a pause.

”I’ve battled his subordinates, and each one is very strong. I think the young master of Dragon Rise may be even stronger, and it’s very likely that I am not his match right now. He is an opponent worth fighting against with my life,” Ye Tianchen said suddenly, becoming very serious.

Boom!

As Ye Tianchen’s voice fell, a shadow descended from the sky, launching a palm strike toward Ye Tianchen’s head at an extremely fast and fierce speed. Ye Tianchen couldn’t help frowning; he was familiar with the energy signature—it was Li San’s. To his surprise, this guy was still not giving up and had attacked him again. Li San’s strength was formidable, and Ye Tianchen had to take it seriously. He countered immediately with a Thunder Sky Fist.

Bang!

Energy scattered, and Yong Chun Tai quickly stood to one side. She knew Ye Tianchen’s strength was unfathomable, and she understood Li San’s combat power was formidable. If she didn’t keep her distance from the clash of these two men, she feared innocent bystanders would be caught in the crossfire.

Li San landed firmly, staring at Ye Tianchen fiercely with eyes full of the fiery glow of battle. He was unwilling to let things be, and partly wished to kill Ye Tianchen—not only because of the past events and Ye Tianchen’s trespassing into the Liu family, but also because, as a powerful warrior, the thirst for battle burned within him when he encountered someone stronger than himself or an equal opponent.

That palm strike Li San had delivered with ninety percent of his strength, intending to injure Ye Tianchen with a single blow, had been firmly withstood by Ye Tianchen, which genuinely startled Li San. Seeing Ye Tianchen’s combat ability forced him to look at the younger man in a new light, and fueled his desire to defeat him even more.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Li San and moved his feet out of the bricks and stones they had sunk into. Li San’s strike, although he had withstood it, had pushed him at least five centimeters into the ground, a testament to the formidable power of the Monument Pushing Hand. This made Ye Tianchen even more in awe of the breadth and depth of Chinese Martial Arts. Many martial arts techniques passed down to the present day originated in the Ancient Era, having evolved over time. Many martial arts had shone brightly during that period, which had been an era of cultivation. Their power, even after losing some of their original essence, was still evident. What, then, must they have been like in their prime?

”Ye Tianchen, I’m very interested in determining the victor between us,” Li San said, looking at Ye Tianchen fiercely.

”But I’m not interested. I just want to see Liu Rumei to discuss a matter,” Ye Tianchen replied indifferently.

”You think you can just see my granddaughter whenever you like? Ye Tianchen, I left the past alone, but now you dare to come to our Liu family again; what are you trying to do, provoke me into wiping out the entire Ye family?” Liu Feng stepped forward, his voice tinged with anger as he glared at Ye Tianchen.

”Mr. Liu, both Liu Rumei and I were victims of that past incident, and it’s all behind us now. I have no intention of dwelling on it. I have come here to see Liu Rumei because there is something I need to discuss with her—I must see her,” Ye Tianchen said as he unwaveringly walked forward in response to Liu Feng’s arrival.

Liu Feng furrowed his brows. Having reached his current level of discernment, he could clearly sense that the Ye Tianchen standing before him was no longer the Ye Tianchen of the past. In less than two years, this young man had truly changed radically, having achieved transcendence. Even Li San’s Monument Pushing Hand had been withstood by him—no simple feat.

Despite his thoughts, Liu Feng remained inscrutable. There might have been more to the incident of the past, but it had also caused great harm to his granddaughter Liu Rumei. For a young lady, a reputation is more valuable than her life, and the Liu family could not allow such an incident to occur. So, regardless of the circumstances, Liu Feng would not allow Ye Tianchen to have any further interaction with Liu Rumei.

”Ye Tianchen, are you really going to force your way in?” Liu Feng stared at Ye Tianchen and asked.

While continuing to walk forward, Ye Tianchen took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, inhaled deeply, and said, ”I’ve come to the Liu family this time to discuss a matter with Liu Rumei. I helped her out last time, and now I need her help with something. If she does, we’ll be even—no one owes anyone anything. I didn’t plan to cause trouble in the Liu family. However, if you keep attacking me again and again, then I’ll have no choice but to fight my way in...” (To be continued.
