Seeing his cover blown, Ye Tian did not deny it. "I practiced it myself, and got lucky to achieve a little. It's nothing compared to you all," he said.
Yang Huzhong's eyes widened as he asked, "Old Huang, what's a Martial King?"
Unless one was a practitioner, the terms Martial King and Grandmaster were rarely heard.
Huang Jianwu said, "Old Yang, you're in the anti-drug team, haven't you encountered any masters?"
Yang Huzhong thought for a moment, his expression suddenly turning solemn. "Of course. Three years ago, we received a tip and went to the border to investigate. While pursuing a major suspect, local police deployed thirty heavily armed officers, plus our eight men, but the person still escaped.
As he spoke, a flicker of shock crossed his eyes. "He was as fast as lightning, darting out the window in an instant. The few people guarding outside were taken down on contact, not even getting a chance to fire. By the time we chased out, he was long gone. Later, those officers who were knocked down all died. The other party had struck with great force, directly damaging their hearts."
Ye Tian nodded after listening. "Even if this person wasn't a Grandmaster, he must have been close. In a confined space, the more people you have, the harder it is to catch him."
Yang Huzhong asked, "Brother Ye, if we encounter someone like that in the future, will we be helpless?"
Ye Tian thought for a moment. "You'll have to call in masters. Otherwise, you're likely to suffer casualties."
Yang Huzhong's heart stirred. "It seems the ones who acted later must have been the experts sent from above. I inquired and heard they were called the 'Dragon Slaying Squad'. Anyway, as soon as they made their move, they caught that person that very day. I was fortunate enough to meet one of their members, and their aura was truly terrifying! I felt like they were a pack of ferocious beasts, utterly beyond human resistance."
Ye Tian secretly noted the name "Dragon Slaying Squad."
Huang Jianwu said, "Brother Ye, you're not old, are you? To have such cultivation is truly admirable."
Ye Tian replied, "Captain Huang flatters me."
Zhu Qingxue said thoughtfully, "Ye Tian, if experts like you commit crimes, won't we be completely helpless?"
Huang Jianwu laughed. He asked, "Qingxue, if those in positions of power commit crimes, are you able to do anything?"
Zhu Qingxue was stunned for a moment, then shook her head. "No, after all, our power is given by them. They are people with privileges."
Huang Jianwu said, "Therefore, Brother Ye is also someone with such privileges."
Zhu Qingxue gasped, "He does too?"
Huang Jianwu continued, "He is at the pinnacle of human physical ability and combat power, naturally possessing such strength. Unless someone equally powerful deals with him, worldly laws will find it difficult to restrain him, won't they, Brother Ye?"
Lin Ziyi immediately interjected, "Captain Huang, Ye Tian has always abided by the law. He's also a doctor, saving lives and healing the injured."
Everyone was surprised. "A doctor?"
Lin Ziyi explained, "Yes, Ye Tian works at our TCM hospital in Haicheng. His medical skills are very impressive; hundreds of people queue up to see him every day."
Huang Jianwu's eyes lit up. "Brother Ye, I sustained a gunshot wound in my right arm seven or eight years ago. Now, whenever it's cloudy, rainy, or the weather changes suddenly, it becomes very painful and numb. Is there any way to treat this?"
Ye Tian felt his injured arm a few times and said, "This is easy to treat. I'll just give you some acupuncture."
Huang Jianwu was taken aback. "You can treat it now?"
He was very surprised because he had seen many doctors for this ailment, including renowned local physicians, but none had been able to cure it.
Zhu Qingxue's beautiful eyes widened. "Doctor Ye, you're amazing. Our Captain Huang has been so distressed by this injury that he's almost depressed. If you can cure him, our entire team will be grateful to you!"
Ye Tian smiled. "It's a small matter. Captain Huang, please take off your jacket."
Huang Jianwu revealed his muscular physique, and Ye Tian took out his immortal needles to perform acupuncture. But as soon as he inserted the needle, Huang Jianwu's phone rang. A stern voice came from the other end: "Huang Jianwu! AA-level wanted criminal, known as 'Poison Wolf', Wang Shang, has entered your territory. No matter what it takes, you must apprehend him! As long as you capture Poison Wolf, I'll promote you by one rank!"
Huang Jianwu immediately stood at attention. "Yes, Director. I guarantee the mission will be completed!"
