Chapter 165: Chapter 163: Straying onto the Wrong Path

Long Chen watched Li Yuexin’s expression of despair and anger with great sympathy.

Originally, Li Yuexin was someone Long Chen did not like due to her misguided values.

But over time, Li Yuexin had changed significantly.

Now, seeing Li Yuexin subjected to such torture, Long Chen would not let it go at any cost.

"Yuexin, I said before, you can do whatever you want."

Long Chen stood up and grabbed Nangong Li.

Nangong Li, terrified, begged for mercy repeatedly.

Long Chen reached out and pressed a finger to Nangong Li’s throat.

Nangong Li immediately lost his voice, his eyes widened, and he felt extremely aggrieved.

Long Chen continued to make moves, restraining Nangong Li so that he could not move at all.

"Yuexin, you can take action now."

Long Chen said softly.

Li Yuexin got up, walked to a table in the corner, and picked up a fruit knife.

Nangong Li, seeing her action, turned deathly pale.

But since he was restrained, Nangong Li could not react at all.

Long Chen stood up, turning his back to Li Yuexin.

Li Yuexin stared intensely at Nangong Li, without any hesitation, she immediately took action.

One stab, then another!

...

Ten minutes later, Nangong Li had passed out.

Li Yuexin threw down the fruit knife, squatted on the ground, her hands trembling, and she broke down crying.

"Brother-in-law, if he dies, I will turn myself in. I won’t involve you."

Li Yuexin said with a trembling voice.

"He won’t die."

Long Chen treated Nangong Li’s wounds to prevent him from dying.

Afterward, Long Chen said, "This matter must not be known as your doing, understand?"

"Brother-in-law, I won’t let you take the fall. I will bear the consequences of my actions.

Moreover, he insulted me first, and I... have evidence. I shouldn’t be too severely punished," said Li Yuexin.

"Some things are not as simple as you think," Long Chen said. "The Nangong Family is not simple. Simply reasoning with him won’t work. Such a family must be subdued first before reasoning can be effective. Otherwise, before we deal with the Nangong Family, your family could be the one to suffer, do you understand what I mean?"

"What should we do?"

Having vented her anger, Li Yuexin had calmed down a lot.

"Just pretend this never happened. I’ll handle it," Long Chen said.

"Brother-in-law, I... I encountered this incident, and I..."

"I won’t tell anyone. Yuexin, you’re still young, open your mind, whether it’s Nangong Li or the Nangong Family, I’ll make them pay dearly," Long Chen said seriously.

"Thank you, brother-in-law."

Li Yuexin was moved to tears.

Having such a brother-in-law, Li Yuexin felt very fortunate.

Long Chen then went out and quickly found a sack, stuffing Nangong Li into it.

"Brother-in-law, what are you doing?"

Li Yuexin quickly asked.

"I’m taking him away. Clean up the room a bit," Long Chen said.

"Okay, brother-in-law, be careful."

Li Yuexin said.

"Okay."

Long Chen, carrying Nangong Li, quickly left the Li Family.

In a deserted place, Long Chen crippled Nangong Li’s hands and feet and ensured he could never speak again.

Afterward, he took Nangong Li to a bustling area, threw him onto the street, and swiftly left.

Someone curiously stepped forward and opened the bag, finding the unclothed Nangong Li, causing a sensation.

People were calling for emergency services, making police reports, and many more were frantically taking photos and videos.

Soon, videos and photos of Nangong Li were wildly circulating online.

And Nangong Li’s identity was quickly revealed.

Of course, Long Chen had some hand in this.

"Century Building’s Young Master Nangong Li, who committed numerous misdeeds, finally met with retribution."

"Century Building debauchee suffers revenge, lying on the street too horrible to witness."

Such news headlines proliferated.

At the top floor of the Century Building, Nangong Dehua saw these reports and was extremely furious.

He ordered people to bring the disabled Nangong Li to the office.

Nangong Li’s vital signs were normal and he could still move his eyes, but he couldn’t speak nor use strength in his limbs.

"Who did this to you?"

Nangong Dehua demanded.

Nangong Li tried to speak, wanting to respond to Nangong Dehua.

But no matter how hard Nangong Li struggled, he could not utter a word.

"Sir, the young master can no longer speak now, and cannot use strength in his limbs. More crucially, his manhood has been ruined."

An elder by the side softly said.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Dehua was so furious he almost fainted.

He had only one son, yet such a catastrophe had befallen him.

"No matter who the perpetrator is, I want them torn into a thousand pieces."

Nangong Dehua’s eyes were fierce.

"Sir, the priority now is to find out who the culprit is," the elder said.

"Simple." Nangong Dehua stared at Nangong Li, seriously saying, "Next, I will speak and you respond by blinking. If I am correct, blink twice, if wrong, blink once."

Nangong Li responded with blinks, but he felt his eyes were itchy and the itch was getting worse.

But he couldn’t use his arms and could only feel helpless and in tremendous pain.

Nangong Dehua had already begun to ask, "Is the person who assaulted you related to the Li Family?"

Nangong Li intended to blink twice, but because he really couldn’t hold back, he blinked four times.

Nangong Dehua frowned, "What does blinking four times mean?"

Nangong Li blinked twice again, desperately trying to signal that his eyes were itchy.

But, he couldn’t speak, couldn’t move, and was completely helpless.

Nangong Dehua exploded, "Damn it! If I’m right, just blink twice, twice! Do you understand? I’ll ask again, is the person who assaulted you related to the Li Family?"

Nangong Li tried hard to control himself not to blink excessively, but after blinking twice, he couldn’t resist and blinked an extra time.

"That’s it."

Nangong Dehua was furious.

"Sir, the young master blinked three times, this indicates that the person who assaulted him has nothing to do with the Li Family, there is someone else, but he probably knows people from the Li Family, which is why the young master blinked a few extra times," the elder hastily said.

"Is that so?" Nangong Dehua asked Nangong Li.

Nangong Li was momentarily stunned by the elder’s analysis, forgot the agreement, and blinked once, a completely subconscious action.

Seeing this, Nangong Dehua shrugged, "It seems your analysis is incorrect."

"The only possibility left is that the culprit is someone else, perhaps from another martial arts family in Qianzhou, who doesn’t want to see our Nangong Family grow in strength," the elder solemnly said.

"Are you talking about the Yang Family?"

"Precisely," the elder answered in a low voice. "The Yang Family has always been at odds with our Nangong Family. This time, as we gather forces in Qianzhou to confront the Dragon Doctor, the Yang Family certainly doesn’t want to see us succeed, so they started by targeting the young master to stir up trouble."

"Your analysis makes sense. This Yang Family, they deserve to die."

Nangong Dehua clenched his fist, extremely angry.

Nangong Li was dumbfounded, blinking frantically, trying to signal that his father was wrong.

But to Nangong Dehua, it appeared as an endorsement of their analysis, completely leading them astray.

He patted Nangong Li’s shoulder, speaking earnestly, "Ah, son, the Yang Family are not to be taken lightly. This can also be considered a sacrifice you’ve made for our family. Don’t worry, sooner or later, your father will avenge you and will not let your suffering be in vain. Uncle Wei, take him down for treatment."

"Yes."

The elder nodded, then instructed people to carry the aggrieved, almost vomiting blood Nangong Li away.
