Chapter 254: Chapter 254: Targeting the Lifeline, Hurting the Innocent _1
Ye Ming looked at him coldly and slowly said, "Vice Chairman Wang, ’One should view old friends with new eyes after a mere three days’ absence!’"
A few days ago, when Ye Ming attended the Martial Artist Conference, he was at the level of a Great Grandmaster.
But through the trials and battles of these past days, Ye Ming had stepped into the ranks of the Earth Rank Fighters, a level which these Great Grandmasters could no longer compare with.
In the eyes of the common folk, who saw Great Grandmasters as unparalleled experts, none could withstand even a single move from him.
Wang Chao glared at Ye Ming with venom in his eyes and cursed, "Don’t be so smug. You dare to attack our Martial Artist Association’s law enforcement officers, you’ve crossed a major line. Our Association will have to sanction you! Chairman Jiang will not let you off easily!"
Ye Ming looked at him as one would look at a fool and said, "I don’t need your sanctions. I’ll go to them myself."
"What you need to consider now is your own situation."
"Jiang Long, I’ll go find him myself."
Having said this, Ye Ming struck again, attacking two Great Grandmasters lying on the ground.
They had no ability left to resist, but Ye Ming did not intend to let them off easily.
As a punishment, Ye Ming forcefully infused a surge of True Qi into their bodies.
There was a loud ’bang’, like a bursting soccer ball, and both men’s Dantians shattered at the same time, their entire cultivation wasted in that moment.
"What!"
Wang Chao was shocked to the core. He understood well that for a Great Grandmaster, being crippled of one’s cultivation was a fate worse than death.
"You dare..."
Before Wang Chao could finish speaking, his body was sent flying, crashing heavily against the SUV.
Then, Ye Ming’s fist hammered into Wang Chao’s stomach, his Dantian shattering just the same.
"This is the consequence of provoking me!"
...
At the Martial Artist Association, Jiang Long crushed the cup in his hand, grinding his molars with a crunching sound.
His face was ashen, his body trembling with rage.
He had thought his plan was flawless, but the sudden interference of Xia Ningning had turned the tables, which he had not anticipated at all.
What he had even less expected was that Xia Ningning would publicly declare Ye Ming as her boyfriend.
It was preposterous. How could the illustrious Xia family heiress possibly take a liking to someone like Ye Ming, a nobody? Wasn’t Xu Lele Ye Ming’s girlfriend?
These questions left Jiang Long agitated, with no one to answer them.
Just then, Jiang Long’s phone rang. It was a doctor from Yanjing Hospital.
"Chairman Jiang, I received word earlier. A little girl who had been in a coma due to a car accident has been cured by a Divine Doctor!"
"The little girl had suffered brain nerve damage, the same condition as your son. Now, that little girl is able to walk and seems like any normal person."
This news brought a long-lost smile to Jiang Long’s face.
He knew that heaven would not seal all pathways; his son absolutely wouldn’t be comatose for a lifetime.
"Doctor, have you seen this Divine Doctor? Who is he? Does he have any contact information?"
"Or could you contact him for me, tell him that as long as he can cure my son’s illness, no matter the cost, it will be paid."
Jiang Long trembled with excitement, to the point that he could barely speak clearly.
The doctor on the other end of the line carefully said, "We’ve got all the details sorted out. That Divine Doctor is the renowned Divine Doctor Ye, named Ye Ming!"
Jiang Long was frozen in place for a moment, his heart skipping a beat.
It was Ye Ming again, why was it him?
This was originally a lifeline, but last time...
Jiang Long remembered the time he had shamelessly sought Ye Ming out, asking him to save someone, and anger surged in his heart.
He had already lowered his stance, yet Ye Ming still refused to let go of him and his son.
"Since it’s like this, Ye Ming, I can only use this move against you! You forced my hand!"
Jiang Long’s face twisted with ruthlessness, and he spoke viciously.
After hanging up the phone, he immediately dispatched two subordinates to bring Jiang Dachuan back from the hospital; this time, he would personally invite Ye Ming.
His Vice Chairman was already on the way to Hai City, to invite Ye Ming’s mother over as a guest.
By then, Jiang Long didn’t believe Ye Ming would still remain indifferent.
However, just a mother wasn’t enough. Jiang Long’s thoughts drifted towards the other people close to Ye Ming.
Coming up with an idea, Jiang Long’s face broke into a smile again as he ordered his subordinates, "Go and invite Miss Xu to the Martial Artist Association as a guest!"
His great idea was none other than Xu Lele.
He knew that Ye Ming had participated in the Martial Artist Conference before for this woman, and even had a dispute with his own son because of her.
With that in mind, Jiang Long decided not to play nice any longer and resolved to bring her in as well.
Although the Xu Family was considered wealthy in Yanjing, they didn’t really stack up against the six major families there; borrowing Xu Lele for a bit was inconsequential.
At this moment, Xu Lele had just driven her car back to her house.
She sat in the car in a daze, her expression vacant, her mind filled with the intimate actions she had just witnessed between Ye Ming and Xia Ningning.
It was then that Xu Lele heard the sound of someone knocking on her car window.
She turned her head and saw two men in Martial Artist Association uniforms standing outside her car.
"Miss Xu, our Chairman invites you to the Association as a guest."
Hearing this, Xu Lele’s face showed impatience.
She was already in a foul mood, and their disturbance only made it worse.
"I’m not going!" she said bluntly.
The two men exchanged a smile and said to Xu Lele, "Miss Xu, we are asking nicely now. Since you won’t have a toast, you must have the forfeit drink. We’ll have to take you by force!"
"What are you doing?" Xu Lele furrowed her brows, barely getting out the question before her car door was opened.
She was forcefully dragged out by the two men.
"What are you doing!" Xu Lele was startled and tried to resist, but she was no match for the two cultivators in front of her.
"Miss Xu, Chairman Jiang extends his invitation; it’s not something anyone can refuse!" The men put Xu Lele into their car and sped away.
The Xu Family’s cook stepped out to meet the young lady but was shocked to see this alarming scene, collapsing on the ground, he began to yell, "Not good, the young lady has been kidnapped!"
Instantly, the Xu Family was thrown into chaos.
Xu Zhendong quickly pulled up the surveillance footage, his face turning ashen.
"It’s people from the Martial Artist Association, what do they intend to do?"
"They actually dare to do this to me, do they really think my Xu Family can be easily bullied?"
"If a single hair on Le Le is harmed, I’ll make them pay dearly!"
After speaking, Xu Zhendong immediately called for Elder Wang, saying, "Elder Wang, please come with me!"
