X-ray Eyes Little Wild Doctor-Chapter 176 - 171: What Are You Explaining?

It was precisely because he knew these things that Ye Tian made the same moves as before, aiming not to startle the snake in the grass and to see what Ye Ying was really up to.

On the other end of the line, Ye Ying’s voice came through, "Brother Tian, I left Jiang City to investigate some time ago and only returned today. After careful investigation, I’ve made a major discovery."

"Oh," Ye Tian deliberately drew out his voice, feigning great curiosity, and asked, "What kind of major discovery? Tell me about it. Does it have to do with the King of Hell’s secret?"

All Ye Tian could hear was Ye Ying saying over the phone, "Brother Tian, you are correct, it is about the King of Hell. I assure you, this is definitely a significant discovery. This secret involves all the King of Hell’s conspiracies, and moreover, I’ve found some clues related to that Crystal Ball."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tian sneered inwardly, pretending to be very surprised as he exclaimed, "What! You’ve uncovered the secret of the Crystal Ball! That is truly great news. Now tell me quickly, what exactly is that Crystal Ball?"

The Crystal Ball’s properties were extremely peculiar, and even Ye Tian himself couldn’t fathom them. Ye Tian simply didn’t believe Ye Ying’s claim that he had unearthed its secrets.

Ye Tian was even certain that not even the Crystal Ball’s owner, the King of Hell, truly understood it, let alone Ye Ying.

"Brother Tian, this secret is very important; I can’t discuss it over the phone. If the King of Hell were to eavesdrop, that would be terrible," Ye Ying’s caution was well-articulated, but this certainly couldn’t fool Ye Tian.

"You make a good point. So, what shall we do?" Ye Tian said these words, yet in his heart, he sighed—Ye Ying, Ye Ying, I treated you as a true brother, yet you try to deceive me like this. It’s really disappointing.

"How about this: we find a time to meet, and I will tell you all the secrets then. It’s been quite a while since we last saw each other," Ye Ying suggested over the phone.

"Okay." Ye Tian agreed immediately.

No matter what the other party requested, he would agree without hesitation, as this was his usual way, and more importantly, because he wanted to see what kind of game Ye Ying was playing.

"If you’re free today, Brother Tian, I hope to see you right now. What do you say?" Ye Ying asked tentatively.

"I’m available," Ye Tian replied right away.

"That’s great. Let’s meet at the Hilton Manor. The owner is an old friend of mine, and there’s nowhere safer than there. As per our usual practice, let’s meet in fifteen minutes."

When mentioning the meeting place, Ye Ying didn’t hesitate at all, as if everything had been prearranged. This confirmed Ye Tian’s suspicion of betrayal and further convinced him that the meeting was a trap.

A cold smile appeared on Ye Tian’s lips. "Good, see you in fifteen minutes."

After saying this, he hung up the phone, his expression gradually becoming uglier. Ye Ying was his sworn brother in the Dark World, their bond not easy to break. Ye Ying’s betrayal truly wrenched Ye Tian’s heart, greatly disappointing him.

"Gu Lei, cover for me for a bit, I need to step out," Ye Tian instructed, then left the office.

He went down to the company’s underground parking lot and got into his McLaren. His feet skillfully switched between the clutch and brakes. He put the car in reverse gear and forcefully turned the steering wheel. Performing a Dragon’s Tail Swing, the McLaren adjusted its front with style, followed by a surge of acceleration, it sped off into the distance.

After hanging up on Ye Tian, Ye Ying revealed a smugness as if his scheme had been successful. He pocketed his phone and turned to the King of Hell beside him, saying, "Master, the net has been cast; now we just wait for him to walk right into it."

The King of Hell stood in a dark corner, shrouded in a black robe, revealing only a pair of sinister eyes that narrowed into slits with a malicious smile. freewebnσvel.cѳm

"You’ve done well. I knew you wouldn’t disappoint me," the voice of the King of Hell was still husky and old, as if it came from the depths of hell.

"Thank you for your praise, Master. It is Ye Ying’s honor to serve you," Ye Ying quickly knelt down, uttering words of flattery.

A hint of malicious intent appeared on the King of Hell’s lips while his eyes squinted, picturing Ye Tian’s death at the Hilton Manor. His entire body trembled with excitement; he had waited too long for this day, the thought alone was thrilling and made his blood boil.

"Here is your Blood Resting Pill for this month; it will temporarily ease your pain."

A crimson blood-colored pill, held between the King of Hell’s fingers, was flicked lightly, causing the pill to fall and roll on the ground, picking up dirt and becoming filthy.

But even such a dirty pill caused Ye Ying’s eyes to glow with greed.

In the face of the Blood Resting Pill, Ye Ying completely lost the dignity of the strong. He bowed reverently to the King of Hell, then pounced on the pill on the ground like a starved tiger.

He was like a drug addict coming across narcotics, completely discarding his dignity and morals, picking up the pill and shoving it into his mouth without even brushing off the dust on it.

Ye Ying’s craving for the pill reached a point of sheer madness, beyond what words could describe.

The King of Hell waved his hand dismissively, "This matter doesn’t concern you anymore, get lost!"

"Your subordinate obeys, I will leave immediately." Ye Ying quickly bowed and, step by step, retreated from the room. Without waiting for an order from the King of Hell, he rushed to the Hilton estate to commence the first step of the plan.

After Ye Ying left, the King of Hell revealed a ferocious and wicked smile, "I’d rather be the betrayer than the betrayed! This is the creed of the powerful!"

"You, the King of the Night, will never outplay me. Today is your day to die, hahaha!" The King of Hell laughed uproariously, and with a flash, he disappeared from the room.

The Hilton estate was located in the southern district of Jiangcheng City, adjacent to the city center. It didn’t even take fifteen minutes to reach there from the CBD.

About eight minutes after Ye Ying’s call ended, a sleek supercar zoomed toward the Hilton estate. Its engine provided powerful thrust, and the roaring sound was delightful to the ears, drawing glances and envy from passersby.

The McLaren accelerated and then performed a beautiful drift around the bend, rotating 180 degrees while surging forward, coming to a halt right in front of the large hotel opposite the Hilton estate.

The hotel doorman promptly approached with respect, politely greeting the owner of the luxury car, but he found that the owner had no intention of acknowledging him, let alone getting out of the car. A pair of sharp eyes were fixed only on the Hilton across the street, and the doorman, knowing his place, no longer bothered him.

Ye Tian sat inside the McLaren, a Cuban cigar hanging from his mouth, using a newspaper to cover half his face, revealing only his eyes that were fixed on the grand entrance opposite, waiting in silence for Ye Ying’s appearance.

Time ticked away by the second, and the fifteen minutes passed quickly; the time for their appointment had arrived.

Just then, an Audi TT appeared at the entrance of the Hilton estate. A golden door opened, and a muscular young man in desert tactical boots stepped out, wearing a camouflage uniform, complete with military gear.

Before joining the Dark World, Ye Ying had served in the special forces, and he had kept the habit of using military gear ever since. He hadn’t changed it over the years.

Leaning on the hood of the Audi TT, Ye Ying felt something was amiss. He knew Ye Tian’s people well; despite their usual careless demeanor, they were actually meticulous masters. Ye Tian was extremely sensitive to time and never late to a scheduled appointment.

Yet now, Ye Ying felt that Ye Tian would be late.

"Could something unexpected have happened? He should have been here already. Could there be an anomaly?" Ye Ying began to doubt.

As he pondered in confusion, a familiar yet strange voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Heh, fully armed to meet me, what exactly are you preparing to do?" The voice was somewhat cold.

Somehow, Ye Tian was already sitting in the Audi car, his hands on the steering wheel, smiling wickedly as he sized up Ye Ying before him.

Ye Ying turned around abruptly only to see Ye Tian inside the car, and his heart skipped a beat. He quickly spouted some explanations, but after speaking, he regretted it; his words clearly amounted to a guilty conscience.

"I didn’t ask you that much, what are you explaining for?" Ye Tian’s lips curled into a sinister smile.

Hearing that, Ye Ying felt like he had exposed himself, but he still maintained an innocuous smile on his face. He tried to exchange a few pleasantries, intending to take Ye Tian into the Hilton estate. As long as they entered the estate, his mission would be accomplished.

Unfortunately, Ye Tian was not about to give him that chance.

Bang!

With one punch, Ye Tian shattered the windshield of the Audi TT, and under the impact of his tremendous force, the shards of glass shot out like a myriad of sharp blades, hurtling towards Ye Ying.

Caught off guard, Ye Ying barely had time to react before he started to frantically shield his vital areas with his fists. Although he too was a member of Ye Tian’s organization with no small strength, he was not a martial arts grandmaster like Ye Tian, and faced with the barrage of glass fragments, he had no power to retaliate.

The strong and sharp glass shards tore through Ye Ying’s high-quality camouflage suit. Although their momentum was cushioned, the forceful follow-through cut open Ye Ying’s arms and thighs, splitting skin and flesh, and blood soon seeped out, staining his entire body red.

"Brother Tian, what in the world is going on!" Ye Ying shouted with an air of innocence.

With an impassive face, Ye Tian leaped from the shattered window of the Audi car like an agile monkey. He stomped heavily on the hood, which crumpled like tinfoil under his weight. He shot forward like an arrow, delivering a ferocious and unstoppable Straight Lead punch.

Ye Ying, panic-stricken, had no room to counter and was forced to defend desperately.

The punch struck Ye Ying’s shoulder hard, and the overwhelming force instantly fractured it, causing Ye Ying to break out into a cold sweat from the pain as he hurriedly fled backward.

But alas, he was too slow; Ye Tian had already caught up to him—first with a Hook punch, then with the Bajiquan strikes—both delivered with ruthless and unbounded force, leaving Ye Ying with a bruised and bloodied face, blood spurting from his nose and mouth.
