Chapter 446: Chapter 445 [Sword Emperor’s own younger brother]

Capital City outskirts.

Lakeside!

It was still the lakeside where the elder son of Dragon Ascendancy liked to fish. He had turned everything into a chess game, treating Ye Tianchen as a mere chess piece. However, Ye Tianchen had become somewhat uncontrollable now, even his top assassin, Blood Mist, had died at Ye Tianchen’s hands—a development the elder son of Dragon Ascendancy hadn’t anticipated.

Had it not been for the numerous martial arts masters from the Beitian Sword Sect coming to kill Ye Tianchen, and the elder son of Dragon Ascendancy’s delight in watching the drama unfold, he might have taken action himself. After all, Ye Tianchen’s rapid development amazed him, and he dared not be careless anymore.

At this moment, a man with golden glasses approached the elder son from behind—it was the elder son’s strategist, Moushu, who respectfully said, "Young Master, we have just received news that Beitian Sword Sect has attacked the Ling family, except for Ling Yue and his daughter, all other members of the Ling family have been killed. And Ye Tianchen has just returned to Capital City and is involved in this affair!"

"Ye Tianchen is back?" asked the elder son of Dragon Ascendancy.

"Yes!" Moushu nodded.

The elder son of Dragon Ascendancy paused for a moment, then asked calmly,

"Have the people from the Beitian Sword Sect settled down?"

"They are settled. As per your instructions, I have told them we would only provide them with a hiding place. As for what happens next, it has nothing to do with us; they are free to act on their own!" Moushu replied.

"Hmm, they’re here to avenge Sato. Not only are they elite disciples from their sect, but Songben Xiajian has come too. They really hold Ye Tianchen in high regard. However, I suspect their goals aren’t just to kill Ye Tianchen; there’s something else more important..." said the elder son of Dragon Ascendancy, pausing thoughtfully.

"Young Master, do you mean the Ling family?" Moushu asked tentatively.

"Exactly. The Japanese are America’s dogs, as everybody knows. The Ling family is the number one overseas Chinese family, and their economic strength abroad is crucial. Otherwise, America wouldn’t care so much, trying various ways to prevent the Ling family from smoothly relocating and developing back in the home country. Therefore, another important mission for the Beitian Sword Sect is to kill Ling Yue and his daughter. According to the intelligence I have, most of Ling Yue’s siblings are against moving back for development, as they have already benefited significantly from America. With Ling Yue dead, no matter how shrewd the old patriarch of the Ling family is, he’s getting on in years and can’t make all the decisions anymore," the elder son of Dragon Ascendancy said with a slight smile.

"Given the Japanese’s ruthlessness, I think they won’t just kill Ye Tianchen but will aim to kill everyone in the Ye family too..." Moushu added with a cold laugh.

"That’s very likely. Ye Tianchen does have some strength, but I think this time he’s definitely done for!" said the elder son of Dragon Ascendancy.

"Should our men intervene?" asked Moushu.

"Blood Mist died by Ye Tianchen’s hand. Do you think the others will be a match for Ye Tianchen? Let those from the Beitian Sword Sect deal with it. We can just enjoy the show!" the elder son of Dragon Ascendancy shook his head.

Moushu was shocked; he naturally didn’t know that Blood Mist had died. Although he was the elder son’s strategist, responsible for managing many of the subordinate forces, characters like Blood Mist were beyond his command.

On hearing that Blood Mist was dead, Moushu was indeed shocked. Blood Mist was one of the most formidable assassins under the elder son of Dragon Ascendancy, with a terrifying level of skill. It was no wonder the elder son already had the intention to personally take action. If it weren’t for the numerous experts from the Beitian Sword Sect arriving, the elder son might have already acted to kill Ye Tianchen himself.

"Don’t worry, Young Master. This time Songben Xiajian himself has come, and no matter how powerful Ye Tianchen is, he will inevitably die!" Moushu said fiercely.

"Hmm, Songben Xiajian is Sword Emperor’s own brother, with strength almost equal to Sword Emperor himself, one of the top experts in the world. If even he cannot kill Ye Tianchen, I will immediately take matters into my own hands. If he does kill Ye Tianchen, then I will kill Songben Xiajian..." the elder son of Dragon Ascendancy said, his lips curving into an evil smile.

"Understood, Young Master. I will keep a close watch!" Moushu nodded, finished speaking, and then left.

Songben Xiajian, Sword Emperor’s own brother and the strongest expert in the Beitian Sword Sect aside from Sword Emperor himself, was unexpectedly sent by Guitian Yilang after embellishing his persuasions. The Sword Emperor, ranked third among the top ten masters in the Divine List, a ranking that, to those who knew of it, represented the strongest ten men in the world—any one of them acting could cause a massive storm.

This time, the Beichen Ittoryu brought a total of thirty top experts, all of whom were elite disciples from within the Beichen Ittoryu sect, each with formidable strength. The chief commander was Songben Xiajian and the deputy commander was Guitian Yilang. Guitian Yilang bore a deep hatred for Ye Tianchen because, during the time at the Zhang family courtyard, he was nearly killed by Ye Tianchen, which resulted in a failed operation. That led to him almost being killed when he returned to Japan, and only with great difficulty did he manage to come out. He originally thought he could rely on Sato’s help to kill Ye Tianchen.

Who would have known that Sato would actually bring about his own demise by the backlash from a genetically mutated drug, causing the plan to fail miserably? Now, with Songben Xiajian personally taking action, as the second greatest expert of the Beichen Ittoryu, he believed killing Ye Tianchen would be as easy as flipping his hand.

On the other hand, after meeting Ling Yuxun and his son and showing no regard for Ling Yue, Ye Tianchen left the medical building, not saying much along the way. He was pondering where the people from the Beichen Ittoryu could possibly be hiding and what actions they might take next.

"Damn, Ye Tianchen, we should bring people back to the Ye family first. If the people from Beichen Ittoryu cannot find you, they will definitely target your Ye family!" Hei Mian suddenly thought of something and smacked his forehead as he spoke.

Hei Mian was so anxious, yet Ye Tianchen showed no reaction but continued walking forward, still deep in thought. Hei Mian was stunned and took a few steps to catch up with Ye Tianchen and said, "Did you even hear what I said, your family is in danger..."

Suddenly, as if Ye Tianchen had thought of something, a slight smile appeared on his lips as he said, "Hei Wa, you can go back to your own business!"

"Huh? Where are you going?" Hei Mian asked in shock.

"I’m going home. Are you coming with me? I didn’t invite you!" Ye Tianchen said straightforwardly.

Watching Ye Tianchen ride away on his motorcycle, Hei Mian was so annoyed he gritted his teeth. Unfortunately, he currently had no way to deal with Ye Tianchen. In the more than ten days since they last met, Ye Tianchen’s strength had increased tremendously. He was gradually being outstripped by Ye Tianchen and was no longer a match for him. At the same time, he admired Ye Tianchen, as this young man truly had his own principles and endless potential.

"Do you understand this young man’s strength?"

At that moment, Hei Mian heard a voice from behind him and was startled. He turned around instantly, snapping to attention with a military salute and said loudly, "Captain!"

Man Tian was standing right behind Hei Mian, his piercing gaze following the departing motorcycle of Ye Tianchen as he coldly inquired, "How strong is Ye Tianchen?"

"Very strong, with immense potential, one could say he is unfathomable..." Hei Mian said earnestly.

"Oh? Is he that impressive?" Man Tian asked disdainfully.

"Captain, are you planning to recruit Ye Tianchen into our Heavenly Gang War General team? I’m afraid it’ll be difficult, this young man is too proud and dislikes restraints..."

Before Hei Mian could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Man Tian, who glared at Hei Mian and said, "Humph, Ye Tianchen is not qualified enough to join our Heavenly Gang War General team. He’s too arrogant, considering himself above everyone else. Give me a chance, and I’ll teach him a harsh lesson!"

Hearing Captain Man Tian’s words, Hei Mian was startled. Originally, he thought Captain Man Tian saw potential in Ye Tianchen and planned to recruit this young man into the ranks of the Heavenly Gang level war generals. However, it turned out not to be the case. Man Tian seemed to have a serious prejudice against Ye Tianchen and even wanted to teach him a lesson, causing Hei Mian to gasp inwardly, thinking that Ye Tianchen had really played it big this time. Captain Man Tian was indeed very powerful, far beyond the strength of their ordinary Heavenly Gang level war generals. If Captain Man Tian were to make a move, this young man might very well lose his life.

This wasn’t a joke. Man Tian was notorious for his fiery temper and had fought his way through battlefields. Although he was both brave and strategic, his military temper was not slight. At that time, Ye Tianchen’s disdain for the help of Heavenly Gang level war generals was an affront to their team. If it hadn’t been for the presence of a senior leader, Man Tian probably would have taken action already. His temper meant that even killing Ye Tianchen wouldn’t make him bat an eyelash.

If not for the senior leader repeatedly advising Man Tian not to intervene in the matters between Beichen Ittoryu and the Ling family, Man Tian might have taken action against Ye Tianchen as soon as he stepped out, inevitably leading to a major confrontation.

"So Captain, what do you mean is..." Hei Mian couldn’t help but ask.

"Regardless of whether Ye Tianchen can handle the people from Beichen Ittoryu or not, I still want to teach this young man a lesson. If he has the ability to make me take action personally, he can certainly try!" Man Tian said coldly, walking away.

At that time, Ye Tianchen was speeding away on his motorcycle. He didn’t head back to his villa or to the place where his mom and sister lived, but instead, he went to the old Ye family house. Based on his deduction, if he was correct, he would find information there about the whereabouts of the people from Beichen Ittoryu. (To be continued.
