Chapter 119 Care for the World. Full of Ambition
Bao Lei and Ye Tianming sat next to each other at the back of the car. Bao Lei was as unsmiling as ever. Ever since he came in, he held his shoulders and closed their eyes slightly. Ye Tianming kept looking out of the car.
Suddenly, Ye Tianming asked, “Uncle Lei, how long have you been with my father?”
Bao Lei thought for a moment and said, “Twenty four years.”
“Twenty four years.” Ye Tianming sighed and said, “As I think about it, Uncle Lei has been with my father ever since I can remember. I didn’t expect that it has been more than twenty years. Twenty four years. In these two decades, my father’s business has been thriving. In the past twenty years, our Ye Family has truly become the second largest business group in H Province from a well-known enterprise in Jiang City. During this period, many commercial competitors and those who have attempted to assassinate my father countless times. Fortunately, Uncle Lei is around…”
Bao Lei also seemed to recall past events. He opened his eyes and said seriously, “Your father is my benefactor.”
“Yes. I heard that when Uncle Lei’s father was seriously ill, Uncle Lei came to Jiang City to work, so to pay for your father’s medical bills. Later, Uncle Lei happened to work for our Ye Group and became the captain of our security department. My father learned about your predicament. My father paid for all the medical expenses and also sent Uncle Lei’s father to the hospital in Jingdu. Uncle Lei’s father had just passed away last year.”
“Yes, my father has lived twenty years longer,” Uncle Lei said, “The medical expenses totaled more than a million. A million dollars at that time was equivalent to a few million now. Haha, I was too naive. In fact, even if I am a security guard for life and not spend anything on food and drinks, I still can’t afford such a huge amount of medical expenses.”
“I was a twenty-years-old fledgling then. Besides knowing martial arts, I had no other skill. I heard that Ye Group was recruiting a new security captain when I arrived in Jiang City. The original security captain was killed by someone when someone was creating trouble in the company. The other security guards were not capable enough to replace his position. Furthermore, Ye Group offered an extremely high salary. Hence, I went for it. At that time, I was younger than your current age, but I had entered the clear-strength stage. Hence, I defeated the other competitors easily and became the new captain of the security department.”
Ye Tianming glanced at the driver and said, “Stop the car.”
The driver stopped the car. Ye Tianming opened the door and alighted. Except for Bao Lei, the two other bodyguards hurried over. Bao Lei looked at them curiously.
There was a bubble tea shop in the street. A woman in her forties was busy with her work. Upon seeing Ye Tianming, she immediately smiled. “Mr. Ye, are you here to buy milk tea again?”
Ye Tianming smiled and said, “I have said many times. Call me Tianming.”
The middle-aged woman smiled and said, “How many does Mr. Ye want to buy this time?”
“Two.”
While passing the milk tea to Ye Tianming, the middle-aged woman sighed and said, “Since you told me to call you Tianming, I will persuade you. Tianming, let bygones be bygones. Whenever I see you come here to buy milk tea, I know that you are a faithful boy. When your girlfriend was in high school, she would buy milk tea from me every day. Soon after she met you and started to bring you here to buy… Then, she met with a car accident. Every time you came over, you would buy two cups, one for yourself and one for your dead girlfriend.”
“Tianming, Swallow isn’t blessed. She has left early. If she has you as her boyfriend, she will lead a blissful life.”
Ye Tianming’s eyes reddened, but he was still smiling. He said, “Aunt Zhang, please don’t say anymore… Pass me the milk tea. I will go back first.”
The middle-aged woman sighed.
Ye Tianming passed a hundred dollar bill to the middle-aged woman as he took the milk tea from her. He then turned and left.
The middle-aged woman shouted from behind, “Tianming, Tianming, I haven’t passed you your change yet.”
“Keep it with you. I’m not sure when I will be back. I am busy recently… If you have the time, please make two cups of milk tea and offer them to swallow for me. I am afraid she may not be able to drink it in the netherworld…”
Tears welled up in Ye Tianming’s eyes. He tore open one cup of milk tea and splashed it on the floor. He looked up into the sky and prayed silently, “Swallow, I will never forget your death.”
The scene of the accident etched in his mind!
Ye Tianming returned to the car and the car drove in the direction of Ye Family’s residence. Ye Tianming regained his usual confident and outgoing appearance. He said, “Uncle Lei, after we go home, I will send someone with you to rescue the directors. You must ensure their safety. However, your opponent is East Heaven King, Paint-face. Although he may not fight you, he will send some masters. Please be careful.”
Bao Lei said, “I know… East Heaven King… even if he fights me, he may not be my match!”
In terms of capability, Bao Lei was extremely confident!
Ye Xinyi was sitting in front of the mirror and combing her hair in Paint-face’s room. Although both of them had known each other for such a long time, they never had any relationship. Although Paint-face lusted for her, he remembered what Ye Xinyi had once said.
“If you forced me, I would commit suicide.”
“Till the day Ye Family belongs to me, I will be your woman!”
Since then, East Heaven King was Ye Xinyi’s trump card. She decided to use her ace today.
East Heaven King looked at Ye Xinyi passionately. He walked behind Ye Xinyi and held Ye Xinyi in his arms.
Ye Xinyi looked at the horny East Heaven King from the mirror and giggled. “Paint-face, are you that horny? But don’t worry… you have already waited for so long, let alone some more days. That day is coming soon.”
East Heaven King said, “I have captured those old creatures and locked them in the villa in the suburbs.”
“OK… those old guys have some good bodyguards around them. In Jiang City, we Ye Family and the Four Heavenly Kings can do this. Unfortunately, I don’t have enough authority in Ye Family. Hence, I have to trouble you.”
East Heaven King said, “There is no need to say that. You know what I want.”
“Relax.” Ye Xinyi grabbed East Heaven King’s hands and caressed her body. “You will get it one day.”
Ye Xinyi stood up slowly. She turned around and looked at East Heaven King. She asked, “Do you think I am pretty?”
East Heaven King looked at her passionately and obsessively. He muttered, “You’re so beautiful.”
“Haha… I am going to be chairwoman. Hence, I need to dress up. I will now get those old folks to sign the transfer agreement. If they refuse to sign, I will just bury them in the suburbs…”
At this time, Master Hou was looking at Miyamoto Shinji practising his swordcraft in the courtyard. Miyamoto Shinji was the best master from R country. He had always worked for Master Hou and was Master Hou’s biggest trump card. When Xiao Bing was fighting against Zhu Mingyu, Miyamoto Shinji was standing behind Master Hou.
He was dressed in a white coat and holding a sharp sword. With a casual wave, he created a deafening sound. As he thrust his sword forward, he seemed to have split the space into half. No one knew how strong Miyamoto Shinji was. Bao Lei once said that the prowess of Miyamoto Shinji was unfathomable.
However, if Xiao Bing witnessed Miyamoto Shinji’s swordcraft, he would know that this technique was too advanced for masters in the transforming strength stage. Miyamoto Shinji’s capability was beyond that!
Those who learnt martial arts knew that they had to practise their qi after mastering martial arts. They would be extremely powerful after practising their qi. By diverting their qi to their palm, they would be much stronger than an average person. They would reach the forging qi stage.
After training their bones, their bones were stronger and more flexible than that of an average person. By stretching and contracting, they could use their strong bones to do certain actions which normal people couldn’t do. They had reached the bone refining stage.
Their limbs became very strong. In addition to their inner real qi, their skin became as hard as iron and their moves became overpowering. Although a spear could still penetrate their bodies, their bodies were harder than that of an average person. They had reached the stage of a true master, the clear-strength stage.
Having real qi in the inside and clear-strength on the outside, they had reached the supreme realm, which they could injure a person without even touching him. After honing their internal and external skills, their strike was as stunning as a lightning bolt. One gentle slap could damage one’s internal organ. They had then reached the concealing strength stage.
Their whole body was full of transforming strength and clear strength. They could injure anyone with their fist, leg and even with the top of their head. They could infuse their strength into others and damage their organs. They could also overpower their opponent with their strength and destroy them. When they were attacked, they could divert their opponent’s strength to the ground or to any other object. Although they might be slightly injured, they had lessened the damage dealt onto them. They had reached the transforming strength stage.
Those who often practised martial arts would know the different stages, namely forging qi, bone refining, clear-strength, concealing strength and transforming strength. The martial artists were split into three levels, namely normal master, martial arts master and martial arts grandmaster. However, not everyone knew that there were stages beyond transforming strength stage!
The transforming strength stage wasn’t the final stage!
Miyamoto Shinji had already reached another stage, which was beyond the transforming strength stage. Very few people in the world had such power. Miyamoto Shinji was indeed the strongest master in Jiang City!
After practising his swordcraft, Master Hou started clapping. Miyamoto Shinji turned around and looked at Master Hou. Master Hou smiled and said, “This swordcraft is ferocious, showy and invincible. People like me in the underworld should do the same. In the underworld, hesitation and retreat will cost you your life.”
“Entering the underworld is similar to dropping into a bottomless pit. It is difficult to turn back after you enter!”
Miyamoto Shinji was tall and strong. His face was thin. He was still in his thirties. He looked rather handsome. After listening to Master Hou, he said calmly, “Master Hou flatter me.”
At this time, Master Hou’s advisor Mu Tingchuan came over. He laughed as he came over. He said, and walked, laughing and saying, “Master Hou is still young. Why are you so emotional? Miyamoto Shinji’s swordcraft is amazing and unparalleled. Master Hou is far more ambitious.”
Master Hou smiled lightly and asked, “How ambitious do you think I am?”
Mu Tingchuan’s eyes were smiling. He stretched his arms out suddenly and looked sagacious. He smiled and said, “Care for the world. Full of ambition!”
