Chapter 201 The indelible palm print

Liu Wuque, upon hearing that his pain could be alleviated, quickly ordered preparations to be made.

Han Ning Shuang did not say much to him and hung up the phone.

Ye Tian said, "Let's wait for news. After Liu Wuque's condition improves, he will either cooperate with us obediently or find a way to counterattack."

Han Ning Shuang was startled, "He still dares to counterattack?"

Ye Tian replied, "He is a candidate for the future 'Imperial Advisor,' with extensive connections and numerous schemes. He will surely try to relieve the pain on his body first. If unsuccessful, he might send people to hunt us down."

Han Ning Shuang sighed softly, "If that happens, Brother Ye will be in danger."

Ye Tian said, "You don't need to worry about me. Not many people can kill the Vajra Martial King. However, you must conceal my identity."

Han Ning Shuang nodded, "I understand!"

In the evening, Ye Tian was still practicing the Body Cultivation chapter in the courtyard. This time, he completed all five movements of the third form in one go. Afterward, he systematically practiced all fifteen movements of the first three forms.

These fifteen movements belonged to the same stage, and the practice effect was relatively uniform. Every time Ye Tian practiced these fifteen movements, he felt some positive changes in his body, which made him very pleased.

Unknowingly, another day dawned.

Today, Ye Tian intended to resolve the matter Lin Zi Yi needed handled, which was the approval of her medicinal products. Thus, he called Yang Zheng and briefly explained the situation.

Upon hearing this, Yang Zheng immediately agreed and said he would get back to him in the afternoon.

Meanwhile, in an apartment in the capital, Director Hou of the drug administration was anxiously inquiring about Ye Tian's identity. However, after asking around, no one recognized Ye Tian.

It turned out that he had intended to take liberties with Lin Zi Yi that day, but Ye Tian arrived and slapped him across the face. This slap left a bright red handprint. He had initially thought the handprint was just swelling and would disappear quickly.

However, after a night had passed, the handprint not only hadn't disappeared but had become even clearer. He dared not leave his home because of it, fearing being seen by colleagues and superiors, which would be too embarrassing. Moreover, he knew very well that if this handprint was not cleaned up, his position would surely be lost.

After all, holding an official position was a matter of national face; who would employ someone with a handprint on their face? Therefore, he was now anxious, and recalling what One-Eyed Chen had said, a chill ran down his spine.

Finally, he followed One-Eyed Chen's advice and decided to contact the Yang family. At his level, he couldn't directly speak with Yang Zheng, so he had to find a familiar contact to help.

However, the process was surprisingly smooth. The acquaintance said Yang Zheng could speak with him and even gave him a phone number.

Director Hou nervously made the call.

Soon, the call was connected, and Yang Zheng's voice came through, "Hello, this is Yang Zheng."

Director Hou said in an extremely humble tone, "Second Master, I am Hou Xiaoqiang from the drug administration. Yes, yes, I would like to inquire about Divine Doctor Ye."

Yang Zheng's heart stirred. He was just about to help Ye Tian with this matter, and at the same time, he was curious why the director was looking for Ye Tian. So he asked, "You know Divine Doctor Ye?"

"Not exactly. We had a slight misunderstanding." Thus, he dared not conceal anything and explained the entire sequence of events.

Because he dared not deceive Yang Zheng, Hou Xiaoqiang provided a very detailed account.

After listening, Yang Zheng's face turned ashen, "How dare you! You dared to covet Divine Doctor Ye's girlfriend. Your business, I cannot manage, nor dare I manage!"

Hou Xiaoqiang was greatly alarmed, "Second Master, with your status in the capital, can you not help this humble person?"

Yang Zheng snorted coldly, "Do you know who he is? The Vajra Martial King! If he wants you dead, he has at least ten thousand ways to kill you! The handprint on your face is his punishment for you!"

Hou Xiaoqiang gave a wry smile, "I know I was wrong. Can I ask Second Master Yang to help inquire what Divine Doctor Ye wants to forgive me?"

Yang Zheng asked, "Are you holding up the approval project for Divine Doctor Ye's girlfriend?"

Hou Xiaoqiang immediately said, "I will have someone handle this matter right away!"

Yang Zheng replied, "Let's talk after you've handled it." With that, he hung up the phone.

Ye Tian did not have to wait long before he received a call back, informing him about Hou Xiaoqiang. Upon hearing that this person was looking for him, Ye Tian said indifferently, "I will not forgive this person."
