"We're getting lost, right now!"

Du Ping forced an apologetic smile again and again as she helped Du Qing up from the ground.

"Ye Tian, thank you!"

As she left, she did not forget to thank Ye Tian.

Captain Wang watched, his awe of Ye Tian growing ever deeper.

He had originally thought that Ye Tian's martial prowess alone defied the heavens.

He had not expected him to be so formidable in mind at such a young age.

By wielding both kindness and authority, he had thoroughly brought Du Ping and her younger brother to heel.

After taking such a vicious beating, not only would they bear Ye Tian no hatred,

they would even be grateful to him for letting them go.

He was more seasoned at manipulating hearts than Captain Wang, the head of the Public Security Management Team.

What a frightening figure!

Little did he know that, in the Immortal Realm, Ye Tian had once commanded the Heaven-Treading Legion in campaigns against the myriad races of the universe.

The mighty soldiers under his command had been beyond counting. How could his generals alone have numbered merely a million?

Without some skill at commanding people, how could he have controlled those unruly, arrogant elite soldiers and fierce generals?

"Mr. Ye, I failed to keep my men in line and caused you trouble."

Captain Wang lowered his head to Ye Tian, his face full of apology.

The Squad Leader beside him hurried to apologize as well.

After all, Du Qing was his subordinate.

If Ye Tian truly chose to pursue the matter, he bore direct responsibility.

Ye Tian gave a faint smile and shook his head.

"It had nothing to do with either of you."

"By the way, what did you need me for?"

Hearing this, Captain Wang hurriedly said,

"Mr. Ye, we've caught them all."

Ye Tian narrowed his eyes, and an icy aura burst forth.

"Take me to them."

"I want to see who had the audacity to reach for the heavens."

"Who dared to hurt my father!"

Ye Tian got into Captain Wang's car and went to an abandoned construction site in town.

When they entered, they saw several bruised and battered men crouching in a corner, clutching their heads, their faces full of fear.

Beside them, four or five officers stood guard, their expressions cold.

"Mr. Ye, those are the men."

"That one is He Laoliu. The construction site belongs to him."

"The other four are hired thugs."

Captain Wang introduced them to Ye Tian.

Ye Tian walked up to He Laoliu and looked down at him, his expression cold.

That chilling gaze made He Laoliu shudder, a chill running through his heart.

"Brother, who are you?"

"I don't think I've ever offended you, have I?"

He Laoliu looked fearfully at Ye Tian and spoke in a timid voice.

"Do you know Ye Wen?"

"He's my father."

Ye Tian's voice was not loud, but it was like a thunderclap exploding beside He Laoliu's ear.

He Laoliu's expression changed at once.

Wasn't Ye Wen the migrant worker who had come to demand his wages and been beaten into a vegetative state?

"Brother, I was wrong."

"I'm sorry for what I did to your father."

"Name your price. I'm willing to compensate you for the loss."

He Laoliu hurriedly blurted out the words.

"How much did you owe my father?" Ye Tian asked coolly.

"Three thousand five hundred." He Laoliu did not know what he meant, but hurriedly answered truthfully.

When Ye Tian heard that, fury erupted in his heart!

Three thousand five hundred!

For a mere three thousand five hundred, he had dealt his father such a vicious blow!

For three thousand five hundred, he had left his father in a vegetative state!

He had made his mother spend all her savings and left her homeless!

He had nearly destroyed his family in a single stroke!

You beast, how dare you!

Bang!

Ye Tian kicked He Laoliu in the face.

He Laoliu screamed, blood spraying from his nose and mouth as he toppled onto his back.

Looking at Ye Tian, who was like a raging lion, he trembled in terror and begged in panic.

"Brother, spare me!"

"I'm willing to pay compensation, any amount you want!"

Ye Tian's anger surged like an unstoppable tide, and he said furiously,

"My father is more precious than this entire planet."

"What can you possibly pay to make up for it?!"

He Laoliu's mouth twitched, and he said in a trembling voice,

"Brother, as long as you don't kill me, I'm willing to pay anything."

Ye Tian's gaze was too terrifying.

So terrifying that He Laoliu felt suffocated.

All he wanted now was to leave alive. Nothing else mattered anymore.

"I won't kill you."

"Because you're not worthy!"

"Thank you, thank you!" Far from feeling humiliated, He Laoliu was overjoyed.

As long as I don't die!

But Ye Tian's next words frightened him so badly that his face went pale.
