Ye Luo swallowed and steadied his mind again, continuing the treatment.

Of course, he wasn’t scared of this woman. Although her capabilities were quite formidable, even considered first-class in Zhonghai, they meant little to him. He certainly didn’t want to tarnish his reputation as a Divine Doctor, nor did he have the heart to ruin such a perfect bust under his own hands.

After ten minutes, Ye Luo had retracted all the Silver Needles.

"Done!"

Situ Luoyun said indifferently.

"Not yet, though the cancer cells inside you have been cleared, the blood flow isn’t completely smooth yet. I still need to massage it to promote circulation to prevent any new cancer cells from forming,"

Ye Luo said earnestly, in a manner that made it impossible to see any ill intentions, but his words inevitably led to certain musings.

Situ Luoyun’s pretty face tensed up again as she gazed at Ye Luo for a while before finally saying, "Go ahead, but if I find out you’re taking advantage of me on purpose, I won’t let you off."

"Of course, I am a very upright person."

Ye Luo made a statement that even he himself didn’t quite believe.

Immediately after, Ye Luo, with his ’upright heart’, reached out and touched that spot that made all men drool.

Indeed, Ye Luo was serious about the massage, focusing on enhancing blood flow and preventing the reappearance of cancer cells.

Despite his strong willpower, the sensation of touch nearly made him lose control. After less than five minutes, he let go.

"All good, there’s nothing wrong with your body now. I’ll leave first."

Having said that, Ye Luo made a swift exit.

"This kid!"

Situ Luoyun’s luscious lips curved into a slight smile.

Minutes later, Situ Luoyun emerged from the room wearing a bright red robe that concealed her perfect figure, but Ye Luo couldn’t help recalling the earlier scene as he gazed upon her.

"It seems your self-control is pretty good,"

Situ Luoyun approached, and with a seductive smile, looked at Ye Luo.

"Not bad, I told you I am an upright man,"

Ye Luo said lightly.

"Lucky for you, you didn’t do anything... otherwise, I would have cut ’it’ off,"

Situ Luoyun said with a flirtatious smile, her words causing Ye Luo to have an impulse to cross his legs tightly.

However, soon a mischievous smile formed on Ye Luo’s lips as he looked back at Situ Luoyun.

"Miss Situ, with your beauty that rivals celestial fairies, don’t you ever yearn for it? I know you’re still a virgin. It’s astonishing to find someone your age still preserving virginity, and during the massage just now, I knew you desired it as well,"

Situ Luoyun’s expression changed several times; she glanced at Ye Luo and said, "Situ Luoyun is not someone any man can possess easily. I want a man who stands at the Peak, someone who can make me the center of attention and adoration."

Listening to Situ Luoyun, Ye Luo couldn’t help thinking that this woman’s ambition was indeed huge; only men who were far from ordinary could secure her.

"So, what do you think of me?"

Ye Luo offered what he thought was a handsome smile towards Situ Luoyun.

"You?" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Situ Luoyun’s phoenix eyes watched Ye Luo, followed by a charming smile as she gently touched his lips with her finger.

"Kid, come talk to me about this when you can make everyone in Zhonghai bow to you,"

"You sure have a big ambition, but I like such thrilling challenges,"

Ye Luo gave a roguish smile and planted a kiss on Situ Luoyun’s red lips, then stood up and left the villa.

"This guy..."

Situ Luoyun touched her own red lips, murmuring to herself, not knowing that in the future, as she would stand beside Ye Luo at the Peak, she would often recall the scene from this night.

After leaving Situ Luoyun’s place, Ye Luo realized that it was far from Luo Jingxuan’s villa. Moreover, the area was so secluded there were no taxis around, and he could only walk in the cold wind on the pitch-dark road.

Bang bang!

Not sure how long he had walked, Ye Luo then heard the sounds of a fight coming from a grove of trees ahead.

Ye Luo glanced over, his Clairvoyant Eye activated, and saw a group of Hei Yi men attacking four robust men. Behind these four was a pale middle-aged man with blood on his lips, looking frantic.

After a fierce battle, two of the four men were swiftly slain, leaving only two to defend against the attacking group, which proved to be an impossible task.

"Lang Kun, you did a good job of hiding with four high-level guards, each with strength at B-grade,"

One of the Hei Yi men, with a somewhat chilly demeanor, coldly stared at the middle-aged man.

"You forced my hand,"

The middle-aged man replied grimly, who was none other than the antique smuggler Lang Kun that the police had been hunting all over.

"Lang Kun?"

Ye Luo found the name familiar, and after a moment’s thought, he vividly recalled the hostage incident at the mall, where the kidnappers had asked the police to release someone called Lang Kun. Could it be this man?

"Lang Kun, I’m giving you one last chance to come back with us willingly and lead us to that ancestral tomb to find the treasure," the Hei Yi man spoke again.

"Hmm, I’m sure once I’ve led you to the place and the treasure is found, it will be time for me to die," Lang Kun said coldly.

"You really don’t know what’s good for you. If we hadn’t stepped in, you’d be languishing in prison by now."

"Being in prison is better than being dead,"

Lang Kun retorted and started to flee into the distance.

"You’re courting death,"

The Hei Yi man said as he pulled out a pistol with a silencer from within his coat, aimed at the fleeing Lang Kun, and pulled the trigger.

Pop!

The silenced gun fired a golden bullet that traced an arc through the dark night and rushed towards Lang Kun.
