Chapter 12 - 12 12 The Woman by My Side Don’t Touch Her!

12: Chapter 12 [The Woman by My Side, Don’t Touch Her!] 12: Chapter 12 [The Woman by My Side, Don’t Touch Her!] Ye Tianchen went to Heaven and Earth to deal with Luo Lei, striking sharply, rendering Luo Lei—a member of the Falcon Unit—incapable of completing even a single move before he was beaten down to the ground, screaming in agony. It wasn’t that the members of the Falcon Unit lacked strength; it was that Luo Lei’s entry into this strongest mysterious unit of the Eastern region was influenced by outside factors, which were inseparable from the Luo family’s patron within the Military Committee. The only reason Luo Lei was allowed into the Falcon Unit was to add a glorious record to his profile. One must know that all members of the Falcon Unit are one in ten thousand, and even if chosen, it’s not a certainty that they would become official members. There are rigorous assessments to pass, making entry into the Falcon Unit a dream for countless soldiers. “You… Ye Tianchen, how dare you offend the Luo family, your Ye family won’t meet a good end!” Despite being beaten to the point of helplessness, Luo Lei still roared with his unyielding arrogance. Ye Tianchen smiled faintly, without giving a thought to the Luo family, their power, or any harm they could potentially bring to the Ye family. The people he needed to protect were not the entire Luo family, just his parents and younger sister—that was all. As for the old Ye family estate, which had always treated his family poorly and constantly pressured them, he had long since disregarded it. Had he truly considered the background of the Luo family and the consequences of beating up Luo Lei and his brothers, Ye Tianchen would not have come to Heaven and Earth that evening. Hearing Luo Lei’s curses, Ye Tianchen didn’t feel the slightest emotional fluctuation; such petty people were not worth it. Instead, he walked up to the short, fat man lying on the ground, screaming in pain, tossed a white hand towel onto the man’s head, and sat down on it. Ye Tianchen had heard the short, fat man’s words from outside; since he had said to use his head as a stool, Ye Tianchen thought he might as well grant him this ‘honor.’ As soon as Ye Tianchen sat down, the short, fat man stopped screaming, leaving it uncertain whether he was dead or alive. This terrified Luo Lei and the man in the gold-rimmed glasses, who both were stunned, feeling that the man before them was utterly enigmatic. He seemed to act solely according to his own will, fearing neither authority nor bothering with extra words. “Ye Tianchen, you dare to fight with me, fight with the Luo family; do you know the consequences?” Luo Lei stood up, enduring immense pain, and bellowed furiously. This blow was too much for Luo Lei; in his view, Ye Tianchen absolutely didn’t have the strength he displayed. The Luo family could crush the Ye family effortlessly, and for him to crush Ye Tianchen should have been as simple as squishing a bug. But now, it seemed their roles had switched, and it was he who resembled the bug. How could the always domineering Luo Lei bear this? “I don’t know, nor do I want to know. What I do want to tell you is, dare to provoke me again and no one can save your life!” Ye Tianchen stood up, coldly looking at Luo Lei as he spoke. Luo Lei shivered all over, feeling a chill run down his spine. Although the sensation was fleeting, the words Ye Tianchen just spoke didn’t seem like a jest. There was a clear sense that this man had changed—he was no longer the family wastrel of the past but possessed a domineering air of someone who meant and could do what he said. “Hmph, threaten Luo Lei? No one dares to threaten me, Luo Lei…” Luo Lei snarled with a spiteful chuckle. Ye Tianchen had already lost interest in this Luo Lei. His purpose for coming here was to teach Luo Lei a lesson, to chastise the man who struck from the shadows, and furthermore, he was looking forward to seeing what kind of performance this member of the Falcon Unit could put up, to have a good fight and stimulate the superpower energy within him. Little did he know, Luo Lei was no match for him, and it was clear with a single try that Luo Lei’s entry into the Falcon Unit was absolutely due to connections. “I’m not threatening you, just letting you know, don’t mess with me, and even more, don’t mess with my family, or it’ll cost you your life.” “If you don’t leave Han Jie alone and dare to associate with her, I won’t let the matter rest.” No sooner had Luo Lei’s voice faded than Ye Tianchen punched him, sending him flying. Luo Lei staggered, unable to get up, and spat out a mouthful of teeth mixed with blood—literally knocked his teeth out—and looked at Ye Tianchen with a trace of panic in his eyes. This guy truly scared him, completely unpredictable; an incautious moment brought a heavy punch his way. “Let’s not even talk about whether Sister Han is my woman, you, this kind of scoundrel, are not worthy of her. Don’t set your sights on her, or you’ll face the consequences!” In the apocalypse, Ye Tianchen would never allow anyone to lay a finger on his women, whether they were women he loved, women who loved him, or women by his side. Whoever dared to touch them was absolutely courting death. A man maintains his dignity and domineering presence; if another’s aim is his woman, even going as far as to sleep with her, and he does not explode in rage, there is no point in living. At that time, even if Ye Tianchen had not yet reached the strength of a Divine-level superpower expert, when faced with an opponent stronger than himself daring to touch his woman, Ye Tianchen would fight them to death, finding a way to kill them. It was a matter of personal dignity, having nothing to do with how powerful one was. Ye Tianchen turned and left Heaven and Earth. The short, plump man and Luo Lei both lay bleeding and unconscious in the luxurious private room. The man with gold-rimmed glasses was sweating coldly with fear. When he came to his senses, he hurriedly dialed for an ambulance but did not call the police. His dad was the chief of the Kyoto Police Department, and this time, the man with the gold-rimmed glasses felt that the matter was very unusual. He did not want his father to get involved. Luo Lei had been beaten, bloodied, and his injuries were unknown. The Luo family was fairly dominant in Kyoto. Both brothers were beaten half to death by Ye Tianchen, and now, with the short, plump man, the son of the chairman of the Kyoto Propaganda Committee beaten, the matter would definitely not end here. It could very likely stir up a significant upheaval, and it was uncertain what would happen to those who got dragged into this. The short, plump man and Luo Lei were both taken to Kyoto Hospital by the man with the gold-rimmed glasses, while Ye Tianchen stepped out of Heaven and Earth, walking on the street. It was already around one or two in the morning; the nightlife of the big city was just beginning. S~eaʀᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Strolling on the street, he occasionally met pimps and even prostitutes who came up to strike up a conversation. None of this aroused the slightest interest in Ye Tianchen. In the apocalypse, he had been with far too many women, and he definitely would not go after a woman just because he saw one. Of course, this did not mean that Ye Tianchen had no interest in women, just that he had no interest in undesirable ones. The women he had been with in his previous life were all top-notch, and in this reborn life, how could it be any different? As he passed by a small alley, Ye Tianchen faintly heard someone demanding money, threatening to kill if not repaid, and that a girl would have to sleep with their boss. He glanced in that direction, curiosity drawing him in, and he walked over slowly. He saw seven or eight burly men surrounding a skinny man, each of them wielding a machete and staring at the man viciously. Behind the slender man was a girl protectively holding onto the man’s arm, trembling with fear. “Hu Long, it would be wise to just hand over your sister, otherwise, you’re definitely going to be bled dry today,” a burly man holding a cleaver said menacingly to the man. “Impossible!” The man named Hu Long declared with a determined expression. “You’re fucking asking for it…” As the burly man swung the cleaver towards Hu Long, Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but smile slightly, for he saw Hu Long making his move. Hu Long reacted with lightning speed, kicking the cleaver-wielding burly man who had targeted him, sending him flying. This startled the remaining burly men, causing them to grip their own cleavers a bit more tightly, somewhat fearful. Hu Long watched these men warily, fists clenched tight, on guard for any sudden moves. Ye Tianchen nodded to himself, impressed. This man’s skills were not bad. Although not as good as his own, he still saw potential in him to be a valuable person to train—who would certainly become stronger with the right guidance. At that moment, it appeared that the leader of the burly men stepped forward. He looked at Hu Long, then at the delicate girl Hu Long was protectively shielding behind him, and said with a hint of benevolence, “Xiao Long, I know you’re skilled, but Brother Li has spoken, your parents’ debt to us must be repaid. Since you can’t pay it back, it’s simple—let your sister sleep with our boss for a few days, and the debt will be written off.” “Spit on that! Go back and tell him, my parents have already been driven to death by them. I, Hu Long, would rather go to jail, even die, but I will avenge my parents and kill him with my own hands,” Hu Long said fiercely, his eyes red with anger as he stared at the gang leader. “You dumb kid, why don’t you understand? A debt of over ten million, and all it takes is for your sister to keep our boss company for a few nights. What a bargain.” “Yeah, who knows, if our boss is pleased, he might make your sister his mistress and even give her an allowance every month.” “I’m telling you straight, kid. Our boss has been in a bad mood lately. If we don’t take your sister back today, not only will we be in trouble, but you’re likely to lose your life as well.” The other burly men also began to threaten and tempt him, reveling in his misfortune. Their purpose in coming here was clear—to take away the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl shielded by Hu Long for their boss’s pleasure. “Over my dead body! If you want to take my sister away, you’ll have to step over my corpse,” Hu Long said firmly, protectively keeping his sister behind him. “Xiao Long, you’re skilled, but you’re no match for all of us. If we really come at you, you’re going to end up dead. I see you have talent. If you’re willing to join our boss, I’ll plead with the big boss on your behalf. You might be spared,” the gang leader said, continuing his temptation. “Hmph, Li Tie isn’t worthy of recruiting me as his underling. My big brother would be just and wouldn’t harm the innocent. After all the evil you’ve done, how could I join you without betraying my deceased parents?” Hu Long snorted coldly. “Fuck this, stop wasting words with him. He doesn’t appreciate kindness, so chop him down,” one of the burly men said viciously. The leading man waved his hand, and the rest of the men all raised their cleavers, surrounding Hu Long menacingly. Hu Long, while confident in his own abilities, felt his confidence wane as he slowly backed away. Despite his skills, protecting his sister from several men with cleavers still unnerved him. “Brother, let me go, please. I can’t bear to see you hurt,” the young girl hiding behind Hu Long pleaded through her tears. “No way! Our parents are gone, but even if I die, I won’t let you go to that bastard Li Tie,” Hu Long said fiercely. “Brother, our parents are gone, and I can’t lose you too. Let me go, it’ll be okay,” the girl said, wise beyond her years, as tears continued to fall. Li Tie had sent these men to take away Hu Long’s sister with a clear, vile purpose in mind. If she went with them, it would be like jumping into a pit of fire, subject to untold abuse, too distressing to imagine. “No, if anything happens to you, I wouldn’t be able to face our parents even in death. They won’t take you today unless they step over my dead body,” Hu Long yelled at his sister. [PS: The first update for today is here; there will be another around 8 o’clock tonight.
