There is an old saying: "The Azure Bamboo Snake has a child, and the Wasp has a stinger; neither is poisonous, but the most poisonous is a woman's heart." It is evident that when a woman becomes ruthless, she transforms into a creature that sends shivers down one's spine.
Although Ye Kai understood the meaning of this saying long ago, he couldn't help but laugh in anger. He thought to himself, "Whoever wants to believe this can believe it; I certainly won't. This woman probably dreams of skinning me alive and pulling out my tendons!"
Su Qiong tentatively took a step forward again, but the two burly Western men, towering nearly ten centimeters over her, simultaneously exuded a fierce killing intent. Even though she was accustomed to dealing with strong presences, she couldn't help but feel a chill from their aura.
However, in the blink of an eye, she gave up. Faced with two individuals who were not only her equals but possibly even stronger than her, she wisely halted her steps and smiled charmingly. "Handsome little brother, this is where you went wrong. How could you have such powerful bodyguards without introducing them to your sister? They might even be on the same side as me!"
Ye Kai frowned. This woman was truly difficult to deal with. If he hadn't already seen through her true nature, he might have ended up being sold out by her while helping her count the money!
She was indeed a deadly enchantress!
"You have three minutes left; I'm not in a hurry!" Ye Kai took a light sip of the red wine he had brought from the Biochemical Dimension, shrugged his shoulders, and said casually.
He was angry and frustrated, but it was clear that this woman was no pushover either. If it came down to a fight, he genuinely feared that Ye Yi and Ye Er might get hurt!
Of course, if he revealed his Psychokinesis, he could guarantee that this woman would have no chance to retaliate.
However, there were still two groups of people on their way, and he was very eager to find out why they were relentlessly pursuing him.
A glint flashed in Su Qiong's eyes as her expression shifted slightly. Yet she knew her time was indeed running short. If she couldn't obtain that item soon, she might end up living a life on the run.
Although she had come to this realization long ago, wouldn't it be better if she could avoid some trouble?
"Mr. Ye," she said smoothly, "even if you've obtained that item, you can't use it yourself. Hand it over to your sister; I promise to give you a satisfactory price in return. What do you say?"
Ye Kai smiled and raised an eyebrow as he looked her up and down. Just moments ago, she had been an alluring enchantress; now she transformed into a cold and frosty beauty. The seamless transition of her demeanor was truly impressive.
Shaking his head, he suddenly tilted his head with an interested expression and said, "But you haven't told me what exactly it is you're after. How can I give it to you?"
"Ye Kai!"
A cold glint flashed in Su Qiong's eyes, her words dripping with a chilling intent: "Ye Kai, the direct descendant of the Ye Family, Ye Zhenan's grandson. Since your parents passed away, all your inheritance has been schemed for by Aunt Si, Liu Manqing..."
"Wait, what do you mean by that?"
Ye Kai frowned. He wasn't surprised that this woman could find out everything about him; what puzzled him was whether any of this information was useful to him.
"A century-old dynasty, a millennia-old family. You may have distanced yourself from the Ye Family, but your bloodline ensures that this separation is merely wishful thinking, as long as..."
"Stop!"
What a load of nonsense. Ye Kai felt confused and impatiently said, "Don't throw those useless words at me. I don't have what you want. Let me give you one last warning: this is the second time. If there's a next time, you'll find out just how terrifying it is to provoke me."
"Is that so?"
Su Qiong suddenly laughed, her smile like a delicate peony—noble, elegant, and imbued with unparalleled pride. "You think these two Big Bears can stop me? This isn't the time when you could rely on a single knife to fight your way through. Haven't you heard? No matter how skilled you are in martial arts, you're still afraid of a gun!"
A dagger appeared abruptly in her left hand while a finely crafted lady's pistol quietly emerged in her right.
"Pfft! Hahaha..." Ye Kai couldn't hold back and burst into laughter.
"You're provoking me, you know that?" Su Qiong felt a jolt of surprise in her heart but quickly reassured herself. With this specially made pistol, she had no idea how many powerful foes she had taken down.
"No, no!"
Ye Kai continued to laugh, his expression oddly whimsical as he casually set his glass aside. He spread his hands and feigned a look of grievance. "Seeing my sister's pistol has scared my heart nearly to a stop; how could I dare to provoke you?"
"Hand over the Azure Crystal, hand over everything related to it, or else..." Su Qiong's murderous intent was barely contained.
"What do you want to do then?"
Suddenly, a deep voice echoed through the room.
Ye Kai showed no fear on his face; instead, he looked eagerly toward the doorway, where he could hear the sound of footsteps approaching.
He even caught Su Qiong's suppressed gasp as she whispered, "Evil Dragon!"
"Evil Dragon? Is that a code name?"
Just a few seconds later, he saw the owner of the footsteps. It was a man with a refined and elegant appearance, wearing a smile that felt like a gentle spring breeze.
"Wow! Armani custom suit!"
Ye Kai let out a loud whistle, raising an eyebrow with a grin. "This is getting interesting. This handsome guy doesn’t look like someone who’s short on cash. Why would he be doing this kind of work?"
"Be careful, this man is notoriously ruthless!" Su Qiong tensed up at the appearance of the Evil Dragon, her demeanor shifting to one of wariness.
"Su Qiong, my Viper, without Wang Hu around, how confident are you that you can exchange a few moves with me? Besides, at this moment, you're already severely injured!"
The Evil Dragon cast a casual glance at Ye Kai before his expression softened into an even more gentle smile as he nodded politely to Su Qiong. "I'll take this one; you can stay too. It's been a long time since I've had the pleasure of such a delicate and beautiful woman."
"Honestly, I'm really not happy about this!"
Ye Kai glanced at the Light Screen and noticed another group hiding in the shadows. Not wanting to wait any longer, he declared bluntly, "Seriously, you all are like a pile of dog poop that I accidentally stepped on. I know I can just throw away my shoes or wash them afterward and it won't matter, but it really makes things quite frustrating!"
"Mm?"
The Evil Dragon hadn't encountered such an arrogant character in a long time. Raising an eyebrow, his smile grew warmer and more radiant. He chuckled, "I haven't met someone as interesting as you in ages. If you have any cards up your sleeve, now's the time to show them. Otherwise, I might just get angry."
Su Qiong had long been provoked by the two lunatics before her. With a light push from her feet, she casually flicked out seven or eight flying needles, giggling as she shattered the glass in the corridor and jumped down. "Gentlemen, as a delicate woman, I dare not interfere in your conflict. Let's part ways peacefully; after all, the green mountains remain and the waters flow forever, hee hee hee..."
"Ding!"
A hint of intrigue appeared at the corner of the Evil Dragon's mouth. He then extended his right hand lightly, flicking his fingers in quick succession, almost instantly launching seven or eight strikes before shaking his head and laughing. "Women will always be women; even when leaving, they must make a scene."
Suddenly, a glimmer appeared in his eyes as he sighed. "Child, she can't escape, and neither can you. It's better to obediently hand over what you have. I don't have that much patience when it comes to men!"
"Hahaha..."
Ye Kai suddenly burst into laughter and stood up disdainfully. "But it's just a mere human modification—an incomplete human modification at that. Trash is still trash! And you've taken on the title of 'Evil Dragon.' Don't you think that's an insult to the name 'Evil Dragon'?"
The Evil Dragon snorted coldly, rolling his shoulders a few times before letting out a ferocious growl. "You're asking for death yourself. After you die, don't forget to tell Yama that it was I, the Evil Dragon, who killed you."
With that, his eyes suddenly turned crimson.
A violent aura erupted like a balloon bursting, fiercely shooting outwards.
