Chapter 562: Chapter 545: Sooner or Later Must Be Repaid

"Mm!" Xiong Tai nodded, then hooked a smile and said, "Wouldn’t it be nice to bring this person into the Yakuza?"

"President!" The young man immediately shook his head, "Our noble Japanese blood organization, how can it have a Chinese Pig?"

"No, you don’t understand!" Xiong Tai raised a finger, shook it, and said, "Our Great Yama Nation is the smartest race in the world, and our greatest wisdom lies in utilization. During the Sino-Japanese War, we didn’t have enough military power to stand firm in Asia, so we suppressed the locals by controlling their armed forces. Weren’t there so-called Royal Alliance Armies in China back then?"

"President Xiong Tai, do you mean to bring Ye Chen into our fold, and have them serve as our Royal Alliance Army?" Ichiro asked curiously.

"Exactly!" Xiong Tai nodded and said, "Ye Chen is a great person; controlling him is equivalent to controlling the entire Chinese underworld."

"That’s great, President Xiong Tai is indeed brilliant!" Ichiro was excited.

"However, before we act, we must conduct a thorough investigation. Go and thoroughly investigate Ye Chen’s background, including his birth and everything else," Xiong Tai seriously instructed.

"Yes, President!" Ichiro immediately nodded.

The rise of the Heavenly Reversal Gang had already started to draw attention and concern from the outside world. Japan’s Yakuza, Taiwan’s Bamboo Union Gang... even Italy’s Chopper Gang had received news of the rise of the Heavenly Reversal Gang. In no time, the news of the Heavenly Reversal Gang spread across the world, making many people restless.

In Hong Kong, the Heavenly Reversal Gang had secured its footing. Ye Chen was also deeply relieved and had been busy for half a month. The matters in Hong Kong had been settled, and Feng Zhi Xiao and others had driven the Fierce Tiger Gang to the China-North Korea Border. The opposition used the forests and the Yalu River as natural barriers, then started playing hide and seek with Feng Zhi Xiao and others. Feng Zhi Xiao and his team simply decided to station nearby, planning to starve the bunch of bastards on the mountain.

The momentum of the Heavenly Reversal Gang’s development was indeed astonishing, spanning from south to north, occupying half of China.

Ye Chen, as the chief Sect Leader of the Heavenly Reversal Gang and the spiritual pillar of the gang, was holding Li Ruo’s hand, standing at Victoria Bay, watching the beautiful scenery there. Li Ruo asked, "Feeling better?"

"I’m fine!" Ye Chen smiled and said, "Everyone has to die, and one always has to pay back when they’re involved with the underworld."

"With so many people dead, will you continue to be involved with the gang?" Li Ruo bit her red lips lightly and said, "Don’t you think about yourself at all?"

"Xiao Ruo, I know you’re worried about me!" Ye Chen sighed and said, "But this path is no longer just for me to walk alone. I’m leading so many people, I can’t just abandon them midway; they are my brothers and also my friends."

"Alright, I know you’ve made up your mind!" Li Ruo sighed and said, "I just hope that you’ll consider things from my perspective in the future. After all, you’re not alone, you have me, understand?"

"Mm!" Ye Chen nodded and said, "Of course, I understand; you are my only one!"

"Don’t be so cheesy!" Li Ruo immediately shook her head; her face flushed as she trembled inside from what Ye Chen had just said.

"Xiao Ruo, do you think we should get married?" Ye Chen, holding Li Ruo’s hand, said, "The Northern City District project is almost finished, and soon Tianya Group is going to be listed in Hong Kong. By then, Tianya Group’s assets will probably double, right?"

"Let’s talk about it after the Northern City District project is completed!" Li Ruo bit her red lips and said, "Tianya Group’s success has a lot to do with you, you are the greatest contributor to the group. How should I thank you?"

"Just let the beautiful CEO of Tianya Group fall in love with me and marry me!" Ye Chen shouted towards Victoria Harbor.

"Ah, are you trying to kill me?" Li Ruo was incredibly shy.

"Ha ha..." Ye Chen immediately embraced Li Ruo, then spun around on the spot, with Li Ruo excitedly screaming. This scene was a happy one, a joyful one. The sun quietly hid behind the clouds, perhaps because even the sun started to envy this loving couple.

"Ye Chen!" Just as the two were about to head back, a familiar voice suddenly came.

Ye Chen was startled and immediately turned his head to see Liang Yingqi standing not far away with her child. Seeing Ye Chen, the little girl immediately exclaimed with joy, "Hero Uncle, Hero Uncle!"

The girl called out as she ran toward Ye Chen, who immediately picked her up and laughed, "Panpan, ready to rest?"

"Mm! Hero Uncle, you haven’t come to see Mommy in a long time!" Panpan, the little girl, had no idea that Ye Chen’s last visit to her house had involved some intimate actions with her mom. Her words immediately made Ye Chen and Liang Yingqi awkward, and Ye Chen quickly laughed, "Ms. Qi, this is my girlfriend, Li Ruo! Xiao Ruo, this is Ms. Qi I told you about before, and her daughter, Panpan!"

"Xiao Ye, your girlfriend is really pretty!" Liang Yingqi’s words were definitely sincere, as could be seen from her envious gaze. She admired Li Ruo and said, "Miss Li, your skin is so nice!"

"Ms. Qi, so are you!" Li Ruo shyly smiled and said, "You can’t even tell you have had a child."

"Flattery indeed. Would you like to come over to my place for a while?" Liang Yingqi smiled and asked, "Come to my home for lunch!"

"Yes, Hero Uncle, come to my house today, you must have something to discuss with my mom, right?" Panpan innocently said. Shit, Ye Chen’s heart skipped a beat. Because during the last affair with Liang Yingqi, she had told her daughter that she had to discuss something with Ye Chen, leading the two right into the bedroom. The little girl had no idea what they were up to inside.

"Let’s go!" Ye Chen nodded immediately, pulling Li Ruo along, saying, "Ms. Qi’s cooking isn’t bad; let’s go try it!"

"Okay!" Li Ruo, following Ye Chen’s lead, didn’t want to disrespect him, so she nodded in agreement. Then, the group immediately headed to the Victoria Shengtai Building. Once they entered the building’s elevator, Panpan, the little girl, was overly excited, clinging to Ye Chen and laughing non-stop despite multiple scolds from Liang Yingqi. Li Ruo, on the other hand, grew quite fond of the little girl.

When they arrived at Liang Yingqi’s house, before her mother could even speak, the little girl had already brought Ye Chen and Li Ruo some fruit and drinks.

"Panpan is such a good girl!" Li Ruo said with a beaming smile.

"Hero Uncle says the same!" the little girl responded with a grin, her missing teeth making her look incredibly innocent. There was a pure simplicity in her smile.

Liang Yingqi quickly entered the kitchen and told Ye Chen and Li Ruo to make themselves at home. Standing up, Li Ruo said to Ye Chen, "I’m going in to help Ms. Qi!"

"Okay!" Ye Chen nodded.

Then, Li Ruo immediately went into the kitchen, and Ye Chen began to worry. With Li Ruo’s intelligence, coupled with Ms. Qi’s naivety, he feared that their secret would soon be exposed. Ye Chen was sweating nervously, hoping only that Ms. Qi wouldn’t foolishly spill everything about their relationship. If that happened, even God might not be able to save the situation.

Fortunately, Liang Yingqi tried to avoid topics concerning Li Ruo, so all was well. After eating a meal at Liang Yingqi’s, Li Ruo and Ye Chen left Victoria Bay.

The day Tianya Group was to go public in Hong Kong was drawing near. However, a piece of news from Leisure City stunned Ye Chen: the Clan Leader was critically ill.

Thus, without worrying about the Tianya Group’s public debut, Ye Chen hurried towards Leisure City.

By the time he arrived in Leisure City, it was already five in the afternoon. A black Lincoln car drove Ye Chen straight to the castle. The security checks were routine, and after passing two checkpoints, Ye Chen got out of the car and quickly ran into the castle.

The Old Patriarch lay in bed, his body so thin it was nearly skin and bones. Beside him, a fireplace burned fiercely. Now, the Old Patriarch only felt a deep chill, so he needed warmth. The butler, seeing Ye Chen, quickly bowed and told the Old Patriarch, "Clan Leader, Young Master Ye has arrived!"

"Hmm!" the Old Patriarch nodded slightly, then opened his eyes, his pupils dilating. He whispered, "Help me sit up!"

"Yes!" the butler responded immediately.

The Old Patriarch leaned against the bed head and then gestured with his skeletal hand for the butler to leave, saying, "Old friend, step outside, I have something to tell Ye Chen."

"Yes!" the butler bowed and then left the room.

Inside the room, only the Old Patriarch and Ye Chen remained. Flames cracked loudly in the hearth, adding an eerie feeling to the room. The Old Patriarch smiled at Ye Chen and then took off a black gemstone from around his neck, saying, "Ye Chen, this is the real insignia of the head of the Luo Sijue family. Now, I officially pass it on to you!"

Ye Chen was stunned and said, "Clan Leader, this is..."

"I already feel that my time is up!" the Old Patriarch smiled faintly, continuing, "So, it’s time for you to take on the responsibility!"

Ye Chen took a deep breath, his nose tingling as tears began to flow. He knelt on one knee, then took the pitch-black gemstone that emitted a mysterious light. Holding the gemstone, Ye Chen felt a great attraction to it.

"According to the traditions of the Luo Sijue family, you must drop a bloodstain on it," the Old Patriarch said reassuringly.

Ye Chen bit his finger and let a drop of blood fall onto it. Suddenly, the black gemstone lit up, and Ye Chen’s vision whited out, as if in that instant, he thought he heard a voice, "Kid, we meet again!"

"How, how can this be?" Ye Chen was bewildered.

"Hehe, does it feel strange?" the Old Patriarch chuckled, remarking, "Don’t be surprised; there are many miraculous places in this world. Let me tell you, the person you felt, that’s the first Clan Leader of the Luo Sijue family, named Aruck Rothschild!"

"Oh, my God!" Ye Chen exclaimed, for this old man had already appeared in his dreams, speaking some cryptic words. Now, it seemed there was some connection between them.

"Hehe, did you think of something?" the Old Patriarch laughed.

"It’s a bit vague!" Ye Chen nodded awkwardly.

"Hehe, there are things I can tell you, but some you must discover for yourself!" the Old Patriarch glanced at Ye Chen, continuing, "The Luo Sijue family has its own mission and responsibility. Many years have passed, but we have never forgotten our mission or our duty. Now, I need to tell you a secret about the Luo Sijue family. This secret..."

The Old Patriarch suddenly began to convulse; then, gasping for air, Ye Chen quickly stepped forward, gently patting his back, saying, "Clan Leader, you should rest first!"

"No... this..." the Old Patriarch suddenly struggled to speak. He weakly said, "Ancient Lava Cave, Ninth Floor!"

With those words, he breathed his last.
