Ye Tian was resting when he heard voices from the front yard. One of them sounded familiar, but not anyone he knew personally.
He got up and went to the front yard, where he saw Chen Yongjian blocking someone at the entrance. Han Ningshuang stood not far away, her expressionless.
Upon seeing the person, Ye Tian recognized him as Long Hui's son, Long Jun, one of the Four Young Masters of the capital.
"Move aside!" Long Jun said coldly. "This young master intends to take Han Ningshuang away!"
Ye Tian remained silent. Lei Changjun, hearing the commotion, came out. Upon seeing Long Jun, he said, "Long Jun, this is not a place for you to cause trouble. I advise you to leave immediately, or you will regret it."
Long Jun had not expected to encounter Lei Changjun here. They were not close, but they had met a few times, and he knew Lei Changjun's background.
"Lei Changjun, what are you doing here?" After speaking, he glanced at Han Ningshuang and became enraged. "Han Ningshuang, are you here to have a tryst with Lei Changjun?"
Lei Changjun was startled by this. Han Ningshuang was clearly here for Ye Tian. Long Jun's words were intended to provoke him into offending Ye Tian. He retorted angrily, "Nonsense! Miss Han is here to see Mr. Ye. They are very good friends!"
Mr. Ye? Lei Changjun's gaze fell upon Ye Tian. He recalled meeting Ye Tian at the Han family's residence and sneered, "Kid, you actually dare to have designs on Ningshuang! Who gave you the courage?"
"Presumptuous!" Chen Yongjian stepped forward, his formidable aura enveloping Long Jun. The latter felt as if he had been doused with ice water and shivered involuntarily.
Shi Chunhua chuckled, "Young man, you dare to be disrespectful to Mr. Ye. Are you tired of living?"
As she finished speaking, she muttered a few words. Long Jun suddenly trembled all over and fell to his knees with a thud. His mind was filled with illusions, seeing terrifying scenes of demons dancing and malevolent spirits appearing. He cried out in terror.
Long Jun thrashed his hands about. After a few minutes, he recovered. He glared at Shi Chunhua, "What did you do to me?"
At this moment, Yang Dongfo, who had heard the disturbance, came out. Seeing Long Jun, he sneered, "Who is causing trouble here? Get out!"
Upon seeing Yang Dongfo, Long Jun was shocked. "You are Yang Dongfo?"
Yang Dongfo replied, "Since you recognize me, why don't you leave?"
Long Jun was both shocked and enraged. Who was this Ye Tian, that so many prominent figures were by his side?
Lei Changjun added, "Still not leaving? Shall I call Long Hui for you?"
Long Jun stamped his foot and stormed out of the yard.
After he left, Han Ningshuang shook her head slightly and said, "I didn't expect him to chase me here. Brother Ye Tian, I've caused you trouble."
Ye Tian said calmly, "It's nothing. If he bothers you again, just tell me."
Chen Yongjian asked, "Sir, shall I pursue him and cripple him?"
Ye Tian replied, "Forget it."
Yang Dongfo offered, "Mr. Ye, if you need it, I can resolve this trouble."
To Yang Dongfo, although Long Jun was also a member of the Long family, he was merely a minor figure. He had countless ways to make Long Jun disappear without a trace.
Ye Tian stated, "If he is ungrateful, I have my own ways to deal with him."
In the evening, Ren Ping finally arrived. Having been promoted, Ren Ping's face was beaming with joy. At the banquet, he downed three cups in quick succession.
Yang Dongfo seemed to know Ren Ping and said, "Boss Ren, congratulations on your promotion. I'll toast you."
Who was Yang Dongfo? A legendary figure. Ren Ping quickly raised his cup with both hands. "I dare not. I'll drink first!"
Lei Changjun smiled and said, "I'll toast Boss Ren as well."
After a round of drinks, Ren Ping was already slightly tipsy. He chuckled, "For us to be sitting together, it's all thanks to our younger brother Ye. Brother Ye's medical skills are unparalleled, and his martial arts are divine. He is the person I, Old Ren, admire most in my life!"
Ye Tian smiled and said, "Old Ren, you've had too much to drink."
Ren Ping waved his hand. "Think about it, I, Old Ren, was almost killed by others before, and it was Brother Ye who saved me. Later, my ability to achieve great merits was also due to Brother Ye's assistance. Come, I must toast Brother Ye!"
After drinking his cup, Yang Dongfo asked, "Mr. Ye, may I ask what realm you have reached?"
Lei Changjun asked Ye Tian, "Mr. Ye, can you say?"
Seeing Ye Tian nod, Lei Changjun then said, "Mr. Ye has already reached the Human Immortal realm!"
