For ordinary people, special forces are the stuff of legends; as for how formidable they are, most people really can't say clearly, so when Ling Shuya mentioned that these people were special forces, the property manager was utterly convinced as if by some ghostly compulsion!

As for Yu Laoer, who was lying on the ground, because it was dark, the property manager hadn't seen the person on the ground at all!

The property manager was absolutely certain because their property management company recruited veterans as security guards, and which of those veterans couldn't take on several people at once? According to these veterans, the special forces recruited by the country were incredibly powerful, each one a freak of nature, beyond ordinary human judgment!

Now, watching these two people fighting, it could be said that it was unclear, so the property manager was even more convinced!

"Miss Ling, it's okay for them to have a contest, but please keep the noise down, as there are many other residents nearby, please don't make it difficult for us!" the property manager pleaded.

Ling Shuya immediately smiled and said, "I will have them finish quickly. You can go back first."

Upon hearing Ling Shuya's words, the property manager immediately laughed and said, "Yes, Miss Ling!"

Watching the property manager leave, Ling Shuya heaved a long sigh of relief and hurried over to Shen Qiuyu's side.

However, just as she reached Shen Qiuyu, she suddenly looked around, looked at Shen Qiuyu with confusion and surprise, and asked, "Where did that man go just now?"

Shen Qiuyu had been paying attention to Ye Xiao and that man's fight the whole time and hadn't noticed Hong Shaofeng nearby. Hearing Ling Shuya's words, Shen Qiuyu immediately looked to where Hong Shaofeng had been and exclaimed in surprise, "Ah? Yes, where is he?"

Shen Qiuyu and Ling Shuya exchanged a glance and quickly walked toward the villa. Inside, Zhou Yuyan was still sitting cross-legged without any mishap, clearly, Hong Shaofeng had not entered the villa.

Where was Hong Shaofeng?

Obviously, none of the people on the scene had noticed where Hong Shaofeng had gone!

Hong Shaofeng was not foolish; in fact, he was very clever and extremely cautious. He had dared to come before because he had his boss and Yu Laoer with him, but now? Hong Shaofeng had come to realize that the people he had brought with him were not fully confident in defeating Ye Xiao, and there was even a possibility that Ye Xiao would kill them!

Hong Shaofeng was very clever. He knew that if the expert he brought was killed by Ye Xiao, then Ye Xiao would mercilessly kill him next, which was beyond doubt!

Hong Shaofeng's goal was simple, to take the position of Clan Leader of the Hong Family. Once he became the Clan Leader, not only could he learn the Hong Family's secret techniques, but he would also control billions in assets. Therefore, Hong Shaofeng remained calm; he knew he absolutely could not die!

Thus, Hong Shaofeng made a move that was surprising to others but logical, and that was to flee and wait for another opportunity to hunt Ye Xiao down. Clearly, at this moment, he understood that it was difficult to kill Ye Xiao; Ye Xiao's strength was not as simple as he had previously thought!

In fact, Hong Shaofeng was sometimes very helpless because he really didn't understand why his uncle, Hong Ancheng, had died at Ye Xiao's hand. Hong Ancheng's strength was at least Mid-Stage Xuan Rank, but in the end, he still died by Ye Xiao's hand, which also led to various branches of the Hong Family vying for power. Though the Hong Family was strong, it now faced potential division!

"Could he have run away?" Ling Shuya looked at Shen Qiuyu with some surprise.

Shen Qiuyu nodded slightly and said, "It seems this is the most likely case!"

Ling Shuya looked at Shen Qiuyu and said, "Sister Qiuyu, now that that person has run away and there's only one enemy left, why don't we join forces with Ye Xiao and launch a combined attack?"

Shen Qiuyu observed the man fighting with Ye Xiao; Ye Xiao had been battling this long and had yet to win, which spoke to this person's strength!

Shen Qiuyu knew that Ye Xiao's strength had now reached the Xuan Rank, indicating that the person in front of her was definitely Xuan Rank as well!

The difference between Yellow Rank Peak and Xuan Rank is substantial, so even if he went up, he likely wouldn't be of help, and may even backfire!

"This is a fight between Xuan Rank experts; our involvement would be pointless and might even hinder them," Shen Qiuyu said. "What's most important right now is to seriously protect Yuyan."

Ling Shuya heard Shen Qiuyu's words and immediately nodded. She felt Shen Qiuyu's words were very sensible!

Meanwhile, Ye Xiao and that boss exploded apart with a burst of energy, separating from one another!

At this moment, Ye Xiao grew more vigorous as the fight went on, his body infused with True Qi Gauze, while his opponent, though also imbued with True Qi Gauze, showed a distressed expression!

Ye Xiao's Nine Yang True Qi, the faster it depleted, the quicker it replenished, unlike his opponent. Despite the inner power True Qi being profound, it was incomparable to the recovery speed of the Nine Yang Divine Skill Qi!

Ye Xiao looked at the opposing side with a smile and said, "It has been a long time since I had such an exhilarating fight. I haven't asked for your esteemed name yet. If I kill you today, I suppose I would have to attend to your grave next year!"

Ye Xiao spoke in a jovial tone, but his words were extremely grating to the ears of the listener, amounting to boundless contempt!

"Hmph, Ye Xiao, don't be arrogant. I must kill you today," the opponent said fiercely, his face contorted with rage, "Since you want to know the name of the person who will kill you, I'll tell you—my name is Zhang Nuchuang!"

Accents always vary by region, even in standard speech, and Zhang Nuchuang's words carried a hint of his local accent.

Upon hearing Zhang Nuchuang's declaration, Ye Xiao burst into roaring laughter and even sat on the roof of the villa, laughing as if he was about to run out of breath.

It wasn't just Ye Xiao who laughed. Shen Qiuyu and Ling Shuya also giggled softly.

Seeing Ye Xiao laughing breathlessly, Zhang Nuchuang's face filled with confusion and rage as he yelled, "Ye Xiao, what are you laughing at?"

Ye Xiao continued to laugh heartily and looked at Zhang Nuchuang, saying, "Out of all the names, you had to pick Zhang Nuchuang, sounds like you've got a face full of boils, and I see you really do have boils all over your face!"

Zhang Nuchuang, hearing Ye Xiao's laughter and words, became furiously enraged.

"I curse your ancestors!" Zhang Nuchuang trembled with anger, cursing at Ye Xiao, but cunningly he didn't rush towards Ye Xiao. Instead, he swiftly leaped towards Shen Qiuyu and Ling Shuya, who were standing by the villa entrance!

Ye Xiao was slightly surprised upon seeing this. Clearly, if Zhang Nuchuang had rushed at him directly, Ye Xiao would have immediately found a way to contain him.

However, now that Zhang Nuchuang was charging at Ling Shuya instead, his plan was simple—to capture Ling Shuya, so Ye Xiao would be forced to surrender.

Although Ye Xiao was fast and also possessed the Wind Shadow Steps, Zhang Nuchuang had already moved towards Ling Shuya first.

In just an instant, Zhang Nuchuang reached where Ling Shuya and Shen Qiuyu were standing!

Ye Xiao was a step too slow, but Shen Qiuyu, who was already in front of Ling Shuya and much stronger, didn't think twice and stepped in front, unleashing her full force to deliver a powerful palm strike at Zhang Nuchuang as he approached!

Zhang Nuchuang, who had no particular interest in beautiful women, especially those who were a threat, didn't hesitate to strike back. Seeing Shen Qiuyu attacking him with a palm filled with intense Inner Power True Qi, Zhang Nuchuang fiercely punched right into the center of her palm!

Being a mid-stage Xuan Rank expert, he could easily overpower someone at the peak of the Yellow Rank, especially since he exerted a lot of force at that moment.

Boom—

The moment Shen Qiuyu's palm met Zhang Nuchuang's fist, she was sent flying backward, crashing heavily onto the ground, while the residual True Qi from Zhang Nuchuang's fist also knocked the weaker Ling Shuya to the ground, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood.

Zhang Nuchuang, having knocked down both women with one punch, felt a smug sense of superiority, believing his strength to be extraordinary. However, just at that moment, Ye Xiao arrived like an enraged angel of death!

Although Zhang Nuchuang wanted to grab Ling Shuya, he had to quickly retreat to the side because Ye Xiao was already upon him, retreating at an incredibly fast pace.

Zhang Nuchuang narrowly dodged Ye Xiao's attack!

Originally, Ye Xiao wasn't fully engaged in the fight with Zhang Nuchuang, but now, seeing that both women he loved were seriously injured, with Shen Qiuyu being blown away by a punch and her condition unknown, Ye Xiao was instantly enveloped by a fierce, intense fury. His entire being was like he'd plunged into a furnace, with every pore radiating a heat so intense it could melt steel!

Ling Shuya, with blood on her lips and a pale face, looked at Ye Xiao and urgently said, "Ye Xiao, quickly go check on Sister Qiuyu, go, don't mind me!"

Her voice was nearly a sob.

Ling Shuya knew that Shen Qiuyu had been hit and sent flying just to save her. Now, Shen Qiuyu's condition was unknown, and Ling herself had been knocked down just from the residual force—what more for Shen Qiuyu, who had taken the direct hit? Her injuries must be even more severe.

Ling Shuya felt powerless at that moment, but if she had the strength, she would surely kill Zhang Nuchuang herself.

Ye Xiao didn't help Ling Shuya to her feet but instead directed his furious gaze toward Zhang Nuchuang.

At this moment, Ye Xiao was exceedingly angry, his eyes flickering with faint flames.

Indeed, Ye Xiao was gathering all the Nine Yang True Qi in his body. No one was allowed to hurt the women he loved the most. Anyone who dared to harm his women would be torn apart by Ye Xiao, no matter who it was, not even the mighty Heaven could stop him!
