Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1128: Chapter 1127: You Have to Protect Me! (Update 1)

”Young master, go south!”

Quickly escaping, Liu Chengyu glanced at the message on his phone and swiftly adjusted his route.

”Turn left after reaching the square on Beiyang Street and take the alley!”

”Proceed for two hundred meters; there will be a half-open door. Inside, there’s a hooded casual outfit—change into it and exit through the window. There’s an Audi running outside!”

”After leaving the yard, head west, and take the bypass highway southward...”

The messages came relentlessly, but Liu Chengyu calmly followed the instructions. Indeed, after a few turns, Ye Haochuan, who had been tailing him, was no longer in sight.

However, Liu Chengyu didn’t relax a bit, continuing to follow the directions step by step.

About an hour later, Liu Chengyu exited the main city area and arrived at a secret villa owned by the Zhu Family in the suburbs.

A beautiful woman was waiting at the entrance. Upon seeing Liu Chengyu, she couldn’t help but smile with joy and quickly approached him.

This woman was none other than Anna, who often stayed by Liu Chengyu’s side.

”Young master, it’s so good to see you back safely!” Anna said with relief, snuggling into Liu Chengyu’s embrace.

”Thanks to your warning, otherwise it wouldn’t have gone so smoothly!” Liu Chengyu held Anna tightly, leaving a kiss on her forehead.

”Young master, the family head has already...” Anna suddenly reddened her eyes, biting her lip as she spoke.

”I know!” Liu Chengyu nodded, his eyes narrowing, ”This time, we fell for Ye Haochuan’s trick. I didn’t expect him to be so vigilant!”

”I’m sorry, our intelligence network was suppressed by the Dragon Network. I didn’t notice Long Xiaotian’s arrival. It’s all my fault, young master, I...”

”This isn’t your fault; we underestimated the Long Alliance and Ye Haochuan!” Liu Chengyu shook his head.

”The incident happened so suddenly that the Liu Family didn’t have time to evacuate many people and things; I’m afraid... things are looking grim!” Anna said with a bitter face.

The plan was originally to trap Ye Haochuan, but unexpectedly, it was turned against them by him. Long Xiaotian would undoubtedly take this opportunity to thoroughly investigate the Liu Family. If the things they failed to destroy were found, the Liu Family would be finished.

Thinking about this, Liu Chengyu couldn’t help but grit his teeth. Truly, one careless move leads to eternal regret. Long Xiaotian hadn’t even suspected the Liu Family before. With this failure, they were completely exposed.

Seeing Liu Chengyu not speaking, Anna tentatively asked, ”Young master, what do we do now?”

”Now that Long Xiaotian is likely at the Liu Family, even if the higher-ups want to protect it, they probably can’t!” Liu Chengyu said thoughtfully, ”By the way, did you prepare the contingency plan?”

Anna nodded heavily and then hesitated, ”Young master, doing this will completely ruin the Liu Family’s reputation of decades. Is it really worth it?”

”What’s reputation worth? This incident has already exposed us completely; trying to salvage it is pointless. Even if we don’t act, the higher-ups will sacrifice the pawn to save the king. By the time that happens, we’ll be truly doomed.”

A cold glint flashed in Liu Chengyu’s eyes. The Liu Family was merely a pawn in the power struggle between the higher-ups and Long Xiaotian. Once any mistake was made, the pawn would be the first to be discarded.

Ultimately, it’s a matter of power. The Liu Family wanted to increase its power and had to take risks. At the same time, due to insufficient power, they were easily discarded.

After a long while, Liu Chengyu said solemnly, ”The loss to the Liu Family is severe this time. We need to quietly lick our wounds. I’ll contact the higher-ups immediately. As long as I don’t make a public appearance, I believe safety won’t be an issue.”

”Are we just going to let it go at that?”

”Of course not!” Liu Chengyu said with a serious expression, ”This time I was careless and underestimated the enemy. Next time, I will make Ye Haochuan pay for today’s incident!”

After speaking, he walked into the house by himself.

Anna quietly turned her head to look into the distance, murmuring, ”This time you outsmarted me, but it doesn’t mean I’m inferior. Next time, I’ll show you my true strength!”

...

The Liu Family was already surrounded by layers of Inspection Group members. Long Xiaotian sat in the Liu Family’s council hall, gravely looking at the large crowd standing outside the door.

These were all Liu Family members, mostly from the direct lineage. Among them, cultivators made up more than half, while the rest were politicians and businesspeople.

He really hadn’t expected the Liu Family to be the ones planning against Ye Haochuan. He had heard about some grievances between the Liu Family and Ye Haochuan. Although there were minor disputes, they were not enough for the Liu Family’s family head and young master to act personally.

The only possibility was that the Liu Family was targeting the Long Alliance. There was no major conflict between the Liu Family and the Long Alliance, so the Liu Family was most likely targeting him.

Of course, this was just a speculation. The real situation would only be revealed after the investigation results.

Just as he was lost in thought, Ye Haochuan and Long Piaoying arrived together.

”That Liu Chengyu guy is too good at escaping. After not pursuing far, he completely vanished!” Ye Haochuan said disappointedly.

At that time, Liu Cangsong desperately blocked Long Xiaotian and Long Piaoying, leaving only Ye Haochuan to chase after him. Soon, Long Piaoying also freed herself and joined the chase.

But after just a few turns, Liu Chengyu’s trace was completely lost. Using the Dragon Network and some specific monitoring did not help at all, as if he’d vanished into thin air.

”Liu Chengyu has always been smart. If he couldn’t escape, that would be strange!” Long Xiaotian said calmly, ”If he hadn’t underestimated your strength this time, he probably wouldn’t have failed.”

In the battle situation, Liu Chengyu obviously didn’t expect Ye Haochuan to endure against him for so long. Moreover, his much-trusted intelligence network failed to detect Long Xiaotian’s arrival, thus leading to his failure.

”That’s not right; if he’s so smart, wouldn’t he know you’re drawing out the snake?” Ye Haochuan said dismissively.

Long Xiaotian shook his head, ”It should be that the mastermind perceived your potential, which compelled them to risk eliminating you!”

Hell, is having too much potential a crime too?

Ye Haochuan said with boundless frustration, ”Then you better protect me well in the future. They sent a Core Formation cultivator this time; next time, if it’s a Core Formation Mid-Stage one, won’t I be a goner?”

”How long can I protect you? Ultimately, you need to grow on your own; only then will you be truly safe!” Long Xiaotian retorted irritably.

Ye Haochuan agreed deeply, murmuring, ”It seems I need to go to the Four Sacred Peaks to enhance my strength as soon as possible!”

”There’s no hurry for the Four Sacred Peaks. Even if you don’t wait to reach the Foundation Establishment Peak, at least wait until the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, or you won’t have a chance and will be in danger!” Long Xiaotian said, shaking his head.

Ye Haochuan was somewhat unconvinced, about to speak, when Chen Yushan hurriedly came in.

”The Liu Family is really involved in framing the Long Group, and they are the masterminds...”
