Yue Hai shot the other person a fierce glare, then quickly scooped up Li Chonglou and left.
Having stayed by Li Chonglou's side for so long, their tacit understanding had long been established. Normally, Li Chonglou possessed no internal energy, coupled with his low-key demeanor.
Yue Hai instantly understood that Li Chonglou did not want to reveal his strength here!
"Trying to leave? Did you ask me first!"
The man in black gave chase. Yu Tianba, being an ordinary person, naturally couldn't keep up. He could only arrive before Zheng Tian with his face full of rage.
"You dog slave, who gave you the guts to act without permission!"
With a crisp "slap," a heavy blow landed on Zheng Tian's face, the force of which made his head buzz for a moment.
But it wasn't over. Yu Tianba kicked Zheng Tian to the ground and then proceeded to beat him mercilessly, his unbridled strength eliciting continuous cries of pain from Zheng Tian.
After several minutes, Zheng Tian, who hadn't dared to resist at all, lay on the ground, barely alive.
Yu Tianba was tired from the beating, but looking at Zheng Tian's curled-up form, his anger wouldn't subside. He raised his foot and aimed for Zheng Tian's head.
"A mere dog slave dares to ruin my plans? I'll beat you to death today!"
Just as his foot was about to descend, a gust of wind swept past, forcing Yu Tianba to stumble back several steps, eventually landing on the ground with a thud.
"Who!"
Yu Tianba's fury ignited, but a figure suddenly appeared before him.
"Young Master Yu, this is the Family Head's man. You don't seem to have the authority to punish him."
It was a man dressed in white. Seeing his attire, Yu Tianba recognized him as one of the Family Head's elite guards. His expression immediately changed, and he forgot about his anger, quickly stepping back.
Seeing that the other party did not pursue, Yu Tianba left without looking back.
The man in white watched his fleeing, pathetic figure and spat onto the ground.
"A fence-sitter, betraying his own family. If it weren't for the rules, I'd kill you right now!"
After speaking, the man turned his gaze to Zheng Tian, who was now semi-conscious. Although Yu Tianba hadn't used any weapons, his punches had been powerful and targeted vital points.
How could a normal person withstand that!
Seeing this, the man in white crouched down and channeled his internal energy through Zheng Tian, helping to clear his meridians.
After half a minute, Zheng Tian slowly woke up.
"Pfft!"
A mouthful of blood surged to his throat. After spitting it out, Zheng Tian's face looked a bit gaunt, but his complexion had regained some color.
The man in white calmly asked, "Where did they go."
Zheng Tian's expression was dazed for a few seconds, then he pointed in the direction Yue Hai had left.
"They went that way."
The man in white paid no further attention, his figure flickering as he vanished once more.
Zheng Tian shakily got up from the ground.
"I knew it, bad things always happen after meeting him! Thank heavens, I hope I never meet him again. I'm taking leave now!"
Zheng Tian no longer cared about his salary. He only knew that if he stayed here, his life might be in danger at any moment!
After leaving, the man in white walked a distance in the direction Zheng Tian had indicated and soon sensed the presence of internal energy.
The central area of the Yu family wasn't large to begin with. The man in white took less than a minute to reach the scene.
However, as soon as he arrived, his entire body froze.
Ahead was another corridor, but the previously neat ground was now splattered with blood. Lying against the wall was a lifeless figure.
As a member of the Yu family, the man in white instantly recognized the identity of the deceased: a subordinate of the Second Master, one of the three top experts, Viper!
"Dead?"
The man in white found it difficult to accept this fact. Although they were rivals, this was still a fourth-level expert!
How much time had passed since just now?
Was it five minutes? Or three?
The man in white felt a chill run down his spine. He then involuntarily released his full aura, channeling his internal energy to protect his entire body, raising his vigilance to the highest level!
Only then did he notice Li Chonglou and Yue Hai.
The former stood far away like an onlooker, while Yue Hai, covered in blood, stood not far from the corpse.
This scene would lead anyone to believe that Yue Hai was responsible. However, upon closer observation, the man in white realized that Yue Hai's strength was only at the third level!
Could it be that they encountered a legendary seed player?
The man in white dared not act rashly, staring intently at Yue Hai.
At this moment, Li Chonglou walked over.
"Excuse me, are you from the Family Head?"
The man in white looked at Li Chonglou doubtfully, but his gaze ultimately fell on Yue Hai, and he did not reply.
Yue Hai said with some displeasure, "My boss is asking you a question."
The man in white was immediately astonished, as he could not sense any internal energy from Li Chonglou either!
"Boss?"
"Hello, my name is Li Chonglou. I am the boss of Tong Gu Ming Jin Company. I came to the Yu family to discuss cooperation with your Family Head."
Tong Gu Ming Jin Company? The man in white's expression froze. He searched his memory but couldn't find the name.
However, since the words were spoken so directly, the man in white replied, "It was you two who were about to make a call, right?"
"Oh, yes, it was us."
"Then follow me."
The man in white turned and walked away. The corpse on the ground seemed non-existent.
Yue Hai was still somewhat surprised. This was the central area of the Yu family headquarters, equivalent to a person's lair. Yet, after they, outsiders, killed someone in their lair, there was no reaction from the other party!
This was too bizarre...
Even if it were an internal conflict, it shouldn't be this chaotic!
Yue Hai shook his head. With his experience, he couldn't comprehend this level of strangeness yet. However, he learned to go with the flow and quickly put these matters behind him.
Taking Li Chonglou with him again, he closely followed the man in white.
Whether it was to create complications or for some other reason, the man in white's pace seemed somewhat hurried. In less than five minutes, he led them to a villa that was only three stories high.
Although the building wasn't tall, this house was the largest they had seen since entering.
It spanned an area the size of a football field!
From the exterior to the interior, it was all in ancient architectural style, seamlessly integrated, giving one the first impression of grandeur!
Li Chonglou instinctively thought of ancient imperial palaces. Without a doubt, this must be the residence of the Yu family's Family Head!
For safety, Li Chonglou quietly fused his soul with Cai Hong and activated his Heavenly Eye clairvoyant divine ability.
There were a total of four experts, including the man in white before them, making a total of five. However, the highest strength was only at the fourth level.
