My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 275: I Alone Am Enough!

After Zhao Xiong, Yan Bo, and Du Le'an left the Li Family estate, they headed straight to the Yang residence.

"Oh? They wouldn't even give the City Lord Mansion face? This is certainly unexpected." Yang Qi's brows furrowed. He had thought Zhao Xiong's intervention would be enough and hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

"And what is this Kangshan Sect? Why have I never heard of it?" Yang Qi inquired.

"That's because you don't run a company," Zhao Xiong explained. "Otherwise, you'd know that every business has to pay a monthly fee to the Kangshan Sect. Ye Fei should know about this. He probably didn't tell you because he didn't want to worry you."

Yang Qi called Ye Fei, who confirmed the story. There was indeed such a fee, and it was a substantial amount.

Yang Qi's brow furrowed again, his expression turning grim.

"What is Cao Zhendong's current situation?" Yang Qi asked.

"Li Chong is an extremely arrogant man. He said he would execute Cao Zhendong in three days, and he will definitely follow through," Zhao Xiong explained. "For these three days, Cao Zhendong will likely be treated well, with plenty of food and drink. This sort of thing has happened before!"

"Hmph, what an arrogant man. It seems I'll have to handle this myself!" Yang Qi snorted coldly.

Since my cultivation breakthrough, I haven't had a real fight yet. This could be an opportunity.

"Mr. Yang, I think there's another method we can try," Zhao Xiong suggested.

"What method?" Yang Qi asked.

"Xiong Ba is considered Li Chong's disciple. If we send him, Li Chong might just release Cao Zhendong," Zhao Xiong said, still hoping to find a peaceful solution. "If that doesn't work, it won't be too late for you to make your move."

"I doubt it will do any good, but fine. Let Xiong Ba give it a try."

Having said that, Yang Qi called Xiong Ba.

Xiong Ba rushed over immediately, not daring to delay for a single moment. He was startled by what Yang Qi told him.

Indeed, Li Chong was his former teacher, his mentor. Without Li Chong, he wouldn't be where he was today. He genuinely hoped to resolve the conflict peacefully, so he accepted the task.

Yang Qi took out a pen and paper and wrote a single sentence: "Release Cao Zhendong, and the Li Family can be spared from annihilation!"

Then he instructed Xiong Ba, "First, try pleading with him. If that doesn't work, give him this note and see what he says. This is the last chance I'm giving him."

"I'll definitely convince my teacher to release him!" Xiong Ba replied, genuinely wanting to save Li Chong. The man might have seemed like a brute, but he deeply valued personal loyalties. Even though Li Chong hadn't helped him since he'd finished his training, Xiong Ba never forgot the kindness he'd been shown.

Taking the paper, Xiong Ba hurried to the Li Family estate.

"Quick, take me to see my teacher!" Xiong Ba arrived, sweating profusely.

The guards at the gate recognized Xiong Ba, as he was a frequent visitor, and led him into the inner hall.

At that moment, Li Chong was playing chess with his son, Li Ligang. Without looking up, he said, "Ah, Xiong Ba, you're here. Why no gift today? I do so enjoy the pastries you bring."

THUD!

Xiong Ba dropped to his knees.

This threw Li Chong for a loop. Xiong Ba was a very thoughtful person, almost always visiting every few days with some nice gift. Why would he kneel the moment he arrived? It was completely baffling.

"Xiong Ba, what is this about? Has something happened?" Li Chong asked with a frown.

"Teacher," Xiong Ba said, still kneeling, "why did you have to kidnap Cao Zhendong? He's a friend of a friend of mine. Please, do me this favor and let him go!"

Hearing this, Li Chong's brow furrowed. "Hmph, even you've come to plead for that Cao Zhendong? I'll tell you this: I can grant you other favors, but not this one."

"Teacher, this is a dangerous situation! You really can't afford to provoke the person behind Cao Zhendong!" Xiong Ba couldn't help but say.

In truth, he didn't know who was more formidable, Li Chong or Yang Qi. He just didn't want to see them clash. He looked up to both of them, and it would do him no good if either one fell.

"Shut up! I've already said it. Mention this again, and you can get out!" Li Chong roared angrily.

Helpless, Xiong Ba could only take out the note Yang Qi had written. "Teacher, since you refuse to listen to my words, then please take this. It's from the friend I mentioned."

Li Ligang walked over, took the note, and glanced at it, immediately flying into a rage. "Xiong Ba, do you have a death wish, daring to bring something like this to my dad?"

"What's written on it?" Li Chong asked.

"Dad, I daren't say it. You should see for yourself!" Li Ligang handed the note to Li Chong.

With just one glance, Li Chong's expression turned hideous. "Insolence! Who is so bold as to dream of destroying my Li Family? Not even Zhao Xiong would dare speak such mad words. They're simply courting death!"

Li Chong ripped the note to shreds and pondered for a moment. "Bring me a pen and paper!"

He then wrote a sentence in response: "Come and take him if you have the guts. —The Alliance Hierarch of Kang City."

Li Chong rarely wrote such notes, but when he did, it signified a major event. Once he signed as the Alliance Hierarch of Kang City, it meant he was personally handling a serious matter. Whenever a major incident occurred in Kang City, he would issue his orders on paper this way. The mere sight of that signature would terrify people to their very souls, and no one dared to disobey. If such a note commanded someone to die, that person would have no choice but to obey.

"Xiong Ba, to think you would deliver such a thing," Li Chong said coldly. "Your crime is unforgivable! Give him one hundred slaps across the face. Then, make him take this note back!"

"Teacher!" Xiong Ba cried out in shock. He had always treated Li Chong with the utmost respect. Even without receiving any help in return, he still visited often, bringing many fine gifts. And now, for this, he was to be slapped one hundred times? It was too cruel.

"Dad, his men came by car," Li Ligang said with a smile. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Then break his legs!" Li Chong said coldly.

"You!" Xiong Ba shook with rage but didn't dare say another word.

Even in ancient times, the saying went that you don't harm the messenger during a war! And I'm his student! I only came here for the Li Family's own good, yet this is the fate I meet!

"Drag him out!" Li Chong ordered coldly with a wave of his hand.

Instantly, Xiong Ba's pitiful screams echoed from outside.

When Xiong Ba was brought before Yang Qi, the killing intent radiating from Yang Qi surged.

"You were only delivering a message for me," Yang Qi seethed, his fury erupting. "And he actually broke your legs!"

He immediately began treating Xiong Ba's injuries, focusing on his shattered legs. The process took a full hour.

"You just focus on healing," Yang Qi said, taking a deep breath. "I will get revenge for you. The Alliance Hierarch of Kang City... what grand airs. What arrogance!"

"Mr. Yang, let me join you," Zhao Xiong said.

"No need," Yang Qi said, shaking his head. "I alone am enough."

Then, he left the residence. He didn't take a car but simply ran toward the Li Family's estate in the old city.

The Li Family's gates were tightly closed.

Yang Qi took a deep breath and suddenly threw a punch.
