Chapter 623: Chapter 604:

Ye Chen certainly didn’t want to faint. Once he fainted, both he and Ms. Yan would be captured.

"Kid, you’re looking for death!" The Red-eyed Leopard gritted his teeth; he absolutely would not allow himself to fail, nor would he permit anyone to escape from his grasp. Thus, he became enraged. When the Red-eyed Leopard raged, blood stained a thousand miles—that was the rumor in Jianghu. Many didn’t dare to approach the Red-eyed Leopard because this guy had a nasty temper and liked to kill indiscriminately, which also made him a target pursued by the Dragon Team.

The Red-eyed Leopard’s palm strike seemed to carry an infinite force, a faint glow already radiating from his hand. At that moment, the guards had surrounded the scene, and Cai Guoqing, supporting his deceased father, Cai Jian Country, rushed frantically to the scene, with Cai Jian Country’s hand in a bandage. He wanted to see Ye Chen die before his eyes. Just when he thought Ye Chen was going to die, the situation took an abrupt turn.

"Roar..." Ye Chen let out an angry roar, his body filled with a surging power that caused his clothes to ripple.

Ye Chen, with red eyes, reached for a dagger at his waist. Holding it high, he declared, "You damned aberration, I represent the Dark Organization in judging you!"

With that declaration, the Red-eyed Leopard was scared stiff because he felt a disquieting aura emanating from Ye Chen—an aura that was definitely not from someone just one or two levels above him. Just as the Red-eyed Leopard prepared to retreat and flee, Ye Chen had already cut off his escape route.

"No, who are you!" the Red-eyed Leopard asked in horror.

"Who I am..." Ye Chen suddenly paused, then shouted fiercely, "I am the leader of the Dark Organization!"

Saying so, the dagger in his hand, filled with a blood-red glow, cleaved the opponent in two. The Red-eyed Leopard immediately stained the brush with his blood. The area erupted in shock; even Cai Jian Country hadn’t expected Ye Chen to also be a superpower user. He immediately cried out, "Fire, fire at will!"

But before they could open fire, Ye Chen staggered and collapsed.

"Vice Commander Cai, do we still fire?" the guard urgently inquired.

"Don’t, capture him alive!" Cai Jian Country exclaimed with joy. The soldiers immediately pounced, with both Ms. Yan and Ye Chen being taken away by the guards. The two were eventually thrown into a dark house within the governmental compound, essentially a temporary detention. They were probably not far from a death sentence.

Ye Chen was captured; out of the four who came with him, two died, two were captured alive, and all four were confined within a dimly lit cell. Ms. Yan bit the tip of her tongue to force herself to stay awake, despite the significant consequences, fearing nothing at this point.

"Brother Chen, Brother Chen!" the two young men shouted desperately.

"Stop shouting, he’ll wake up on his own tomorrow!" Ms. Yan sighed next to them.

"We’re finished, what do we do now!" one of the younger brothers said through gritted teeth, "No matter what, we must get this message out. Otherwise, we’re probably just waiting to die here!"

"But this place is heavily guarded; how can we get out?" another young man in a plaid shirt asked in doubt.

"Yeah, the security is tight!" Both were very despondent.

This small dark room was clearly intended for solitary confinement. If guards in the compound erred, they would be locked up here. Ms. Yan leaned against the wall, propping Ye Chen’s head on her thigh, continuously caressing his face, hoping to offer him a more peaceful sleep. Her eyes looked empty, her gaze unfocused.

Gazing at the world through the iron bars, it seemed as if she could see no end to it.

With Ye Chen in his grasp, Cai Jian Country’s inner elation was naturally indescribable. Since there were too many people paying attention, he couldn’t take Yun Yan away for the time being. However, he wasn’t anxious. With both Ye Chen and Yun Yan in his hands, devouring Yun Yan was just a matter of time. As for killing Ye Chen, it was merely at his whim.

"Dad, what are your plans for handling that Ye guy?" Cai Guoqing urgently inquired.

"Humph, first, we’ll investigate his background thoroughly before we decide!" Cai Jian Country was a very cautious man. Ever since he discovered that Ye Chen was also a superpower user, he started to worry. If there were more powerful forces behind Ye Chen, then he would be in trouble. So, now he needed to keep the secret as much as possible and clarify Ye Chen’s personal information before thinking of a way to deal with him.

"Yes!" Cai Guoqing nodded.

However, the information that came back from the investigation made Cai Jian Country apprehensive. The data were clearly marked: Ye Chen, a man from Jianghuai City. Gang Leader of the Heavenly Reversal Gang, Chairman of the Si Yang Group, General Manager of Black Water Security Company, and he had just been named one of Jianghuai City’s Top Ten Outstanding Young People, a philanthropist, etc. Moreover, Ye Chen was the son-in-law of the Provincial Party Secretary of Province Z. Rumor had it that the guy also had some connections at the Central level.

"Damn it, it’s so complicated?!" Cai Jian Country frowned deeply.

"Dad, what should we do now?" Cai Guoqing was a useless fellow who liked to consult his father on everything, and probably even needed his dad to observe and give pointers when consummating his marriage. Cai Jian Country snorted coldly and said, "No matter who it is, if they have offended me, I’ll make their lives worse than death!"

"But Ye Chen has a very special identity!" Cai Guoqing said anxiously.

"Hmph, so what?" Cai Jian Country snorted and said, "The more special they are, the less we can let them go!"

"Why?" Cai Guoqing asked anxiously.

"If he had no connection with the Central authorities, that would be one thing, but if Ye Chen really has connections with people from the Central authorities, then we’re in trouble!" Cai Jian Country laughed coldly. "I don’t have the confidence to gamble on that, so I’d rather wrongfully kill him than let him go!"

Cai Guoqing thought it over and felt that his dad was right, so he nodded and said, "Then let’s kill him!"

To decide to kill so casually was characteristic of the Cai father and son; they were seasoned in doing bad deeds.

The investigation went back and forth, quickly taking up several days. When Feng Zhixiao and the others couldn’t get in touch with Ye Chen, they immediately had Xiao Bai and the Four Heavenly Kings begin searching for him in Jianghuai City. They scoured the whole city, even searching every nook and cranny of Tongzhou City, but still found no results. Therefore, Xiao Bai had no choice but to seek help from Zhang Yantong, who informed her father, Zhang Kaiguo. He immediately issued a provincial order, demanding that local police stations commence a search for a missing person.

Unfortunately, the search was fruitless.

"Dad, what do we do now? How could Ye Chen just disappear without a reason?" Zhang Yantong was extremely anxious.

"This is a troublesome matter!" Zhang Kaiguo took a deep breath and said, "I’ve thought it over, and we should report this. Let’s report it to the Central authorities and see what the big shots have to say."

"Mhm!" Zhang Yantong nodded immediately, hoping that reporting the matter might result in finding Ye Chen.

Once the news reached the Central authorities, Elder Pang and others were also stunned. How could Ye Chen, a living person, just disappear? A few days ago, the guy had even called him. How could he be missing now? Vice Chairman Chen immediately suggested, "Could this guy have gone to Leisure City?"

"Perhaps!" Elder Pang’s eyes lit up.

Right after, Elder Pang immediately contacted the Luo Sijue family to see if they’d come into contact with Ye Chen. However, the news from Shanghai Zhao Zimo indicated that Ye Chen had not returned to Leisure City. This news shocked the big shots.

While they had yet to resolve the mystery of Ye Chen’s whereabouts, an even more astonishing message came from the Guangzhou Military Region. On the night of the second day of the lunar new year, a shooting incident had occurred in the military compound, and reportedly, several people had been arrested. This news was sent by the Commander of the Guangzhou Military Region, Fu Zhenhua, who brought it back to Beijing.

"Hehe, there’s someone so bold?" Elder Pang asked with a chuckle.

"Isn’t that right!" Fu Zhenhua picked up a cup of tea and said with a chuckle, "It is said that that kid was quite something!"

"Oh, let’s hear it!" Elder Pang beckoned his old classmate. They’d graduated from the party school together and fought alongside each other in the Korean War, having crawled out of piles of corpses on the front lines; their friendship was deep.

"It’s said that the kid’s name is... what was it? Ye Chen!" Fu Zhenhua recalled after a moment.

However, his words made Elder Pang freeze. Elder Pang looked at Fu Zhenhua in astonishment, stood up, and asked, "What did you say? What’s that kid’s name?"

"Ye Chen!" Fu Zhenhua looked back at Elder Pang, surprised. "What’s wrong?"

"Damn it, you guys arrested Ye Chen?" Elder Pang looked at Fu Zhenhua angrily.

"That’s right, the kid tried to kill Cai Jian Country!" Fu Zhenhua was astonished. "Not only that, but he also brought several people with him, carrying guns and assaulting the military compound!"

"Damn it, never mind that, call back immediately and tell that Cai Jian Country to release him!" Elder Pang said furiously.

"It’s too late!" Fu Zhenhua shook his head and said, "Knowing that Cai Jian Country, he’s probably already had the man killed!"

"Scoundrels!" Elder Pang was furious. "Let’s go, immediately back to Guangzhou!"
