Chen Xiao and Vermilion Bird raced to the villa in their car, arriving in a flurry of urgency. As soon as the vehicle came to a halt, the two dashed into the villa.
On the lawn at the entrance, a man and a woman lay motionless, their fate unknown.
Yang Xinyi sat there, stunned, with Xiao Baibai, now covered in blood, squatting next to her and returned to its normal form.
Chen Xiao sighed in relief, seeing that Yang Xinyi seemed to be fine, but who were the people lying on the ground?
“Quick, take her to the hospital,” Yang Xinyi said, hurrying over and pointing at An Le, who was unconscious on the ground.
After quickly understanding the situation, Chen Xiao rushed An Le to the hospital for treatment, not bothering with the corpse of Cold-blooded.
On the way to the hospital, Vermilion Bird got through to Ye Xiong on the phone. Since she wasn’t fully aware of the situation, she handed the phone to Yang Xinyi.
Yang Xinyi took the phone and, before she could speak, began to cry.
The events of the evening had been a nightmare for her; she could hardly believe they were real.
After recounting the events intermittently, Ye Xiong comforted her before asking her to give the phone back to Vermilion Bird.
“How is An Le doing?” Ye Xiong asked.
“She’s not dead yet, but her condition is grim,” Vermilion Bird replied.
“Please tell the doctor to save her at all costs, no matter how much money it takes or what it requires.”

“We will,” Vermilion Bird assured.
Ye Xiong hung up the phone and stood at the entrance of the hospital building, silent for a long moment.
His chest heaved with intense emotion, fury simmering and building by the minute, his fists clenched tightly.
“What’s the situation? Has Chen Xiao arrived yet?”
Long Zaitian had already heard about it and knew something serious was unfolding in Jiangnan.
“Not yet.”
“And your wife…?”
“She’s fine, but a friend of mine is critically injured, their life hanging in the balance,” Ye Xiong said urgently.
“So it was your friend who saved her.”
“It was Xiao Baibai who saved her.”
As Ye Xiong briefly recounted what had happened, Long Zaitian’s expression changed dramatically when he heard about Xiao Baibai’s severe injury and subsequent transformation.
“The Xiao Baibai you’re talking about, is it the one you brought back from Thunder Mountain?” Long Tianya asked with excitement.
“Yes, what about it?” Ye Xiong asked, puzzled by his excitement.
“So it is the Thunder Mountain Divine Beast. It’s astonishing that fate has allowed you to tame such an exceptional Divine Beast,” marveled Long Zaitian with a mixture of shock and envy.
“Xiao Baibai is a Divine Beast from Thunder Mountain?” Ye Xiong was astonished.
But reflecting on it, he reckoned that aside from a Divine Beast, no ordinary animal could transform or be as attuned to human nature as Xiao Baibai was.
“Given what you’ve described, it must be so,” Long Zaitian confirmed.
“The Divine Beast from Thunder Mountain has lived for hundreds of years, mastering human nature. My master once sought to tame it years ago, searching Thunder Mountain for months without finding any trace of it. All we knew was that it had white fur and was proficient in transformation, especially when grievously injured; it would transform more powerfully, which is why it had managed to evade human hunters for centuries,” explained Long Zaitian.
Ye Xiong nodded, finding the explanation plausible.
If Xiao Baibai maintained its Snow Wolf form, it would not be easy to conceal itself and, no matter how strong it was, it might have already been shot by hunters.
Indeed, it was this distinctive trait that had allowed it to survive unscathed for a century.
“You must tell no one about the existence of the Thunder Mountain Divine Beast, especially members of the Beast Organization. Otherwise, it might become a target for them, as its genes are highly coveted. While in Thunder Mountain, the Beast Organization spared no effort to find it but never succeeded,” Long Zaitian warned.
“I’ll make them keep the secret. What puzzles me, though, is why Xiao Bai, being the Thunder Mountain Divine Beast, would stick to me?” That had been something Ye Xiong could never understand.
He remembered how Xiao Baibai had bitten the hem of his trousers in Lei Rongdong, refusing to let him go, and it had always perplexed him.
“The Thunder Mountain Divine Beast has lived for so long, it’s become human-wise. Maybe it’s because you destroyed that place at the base and then transformed to defeat Ghost and a group of Gene Warriors. It thinks you’re a good umbrella for protection, so it’s clinging to you,” Long Zaitian said.
Ye Xiong thought it made sense.
“Let’s go!”
“Wait a second, I’m going back to see Long Tianya,” Ye Xiong said, a hint of cold light in his eyes.
“What are you planning to do? Long Tianya is a senior national official. If you touch him, it won’t end well for you. Without evidence, I wouldn’t dare move against him either,” Long Zaitian said anxiously.
“Don’t worry, I just want to have a word with him,” Ye Xiong replied, and started walking inside.
“What are you doing, stop there.”
The guards at the door stopped him because he had argued with Long Tianya before, so they intercepted him immediately.
“Notify him that I have something I’d like to discuss with him,” Ye Xiong said indifferently.
“Wait a moment,” a guard said reluctantly.
Ye Xiong pushed the door open and entered. At that moment, Long Tianya was lying on the bed, his brows furrowed.
Clearly, Cold-blooded not returning his call was making him uneasy.
Because of Yang Xinyi’s extraordinary beauty, Long Tianya had specifically sent Cold-blooded, the most ruthless among his disciples, to carry out the mission. Cold-blooded was powerful, decisive, and icy, immune to the lure of beauty, and should have completed the task easily. Yet there was no reply till now.
Had there been a mishap?
Just then, the guard came in to report that Ye Xiong wanted to see him.
Ye Xiong walked in, his gaze fell on the mobile phone at Long Tianya’s bedside, and he said coldly, “I’m sorry, but your man can no longer return your calls. If you want to find him, just dial direct to the Underworld!”
Long Tianya stared at him and waved his hand to dismiss the guard.
“Commander, I’m afraid he might harm you,” the guard said, concerned.
“He doesn’t have the guts,” Long Tianya said.
The guard then left, reluctantly.
Long Tianya’s gaze settled on Ye Xiong, and he used lip reading to say, “You were lucky this time; you won’t be so fortunate next time.”
Ye Xiong’s face turned ashen as he walked to the table and took out two plastic bags from a bag of fruits.
“What are you trying to do?” Long Tianya exclaimed in alarm, about to call the guards.
Ye Xiong lunged, covering his mouth tightly with the bags, and then swung his right fist, smashing it hard into his chest.
Long Tianya was already dealing with a fracture, and the beating from Ye Xiong was excruciating.
Unfortunately, with his mouth firmly covered, he couldn’t even call for help; he was in panic, nearly on the verge of a fit of rage.
Ye Xiong swung his fist, delivering dozens of punches and shifting the bones that had just been set, before stopping. He used lip reading to say, “Still think I don’t have the guts? You can try to sue me, provided you have evidence.”
Ye Xiong took out a lighter and burned the bags, leaving no evidence of his presence on Long Tianya.
If Long Tianya tried to sue him, he would deny everything, even if it killed him.
Long Tianya trembled with pain, fixing Ye Xiong with a look that was almost shooting fire.
An entire week’s worth of treatment had been wasted.
“Until I find evidence to prove you’re Ghost, I won’t let you get better. Just wait, I’ll come back,” Ye Xiong conveyed through lip reading. Only then did he leave the ward.
Behind him, Long Tianya’s face turned the color of pig’s blood.
