Ye Kang looked at him in confusion.

A young man dressed in silk was seen walking towards them, followed by several people, including other young men like him and guards whose true energy was revealed.

Startled by the shout, Ling Yu's face turned pale, and she quickly said, "Second Young Master, let's go back!"

Before Ye Kang could speak, the young master slammed his hand on the table and stared at Ling Yu with a mocking expression.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I originally thought that after Minister Zhong died, you would all have to go to the brothel. I didn't expect that the higher-ups would show leniency and let you go. Instead of making money, you came to the theater to have fun. How interesting."

Lingyu shook her head repeatedly, her expression visibly panicked.

"Young Master Ma, I'll be going now."

She stood up to run away, but the young master didn't seem to have any intention of giving up. Instead, he blocked Ling Yu's way.

"Why are you leaving? You two sisters had your home ransacked, where did you get the money to come here to listen to music? Don't tell me you're trying to freeload here, are you?"

"no!"

Young Master Ma stroked his chin, looked Ling Yu up and down, and suddenly revealed a lewd smile.

"Stop pretending. You're just short of money, aren't you? You should have said so earlier. Considering our past relationship, you'll sleep with me tonight, and the money will come naturally."

As he spoke, he reached out and touched Lingyu's slender waist.

Just then, a teacup suddenly flew over and knocked his hand away.

Young Master Ma cried out in pain, then glared angrily at Ye Kang beside him.

"Where did this stray dog ​​come from! You've got some nerve, daring to hit me!"

He raised his hand to slap him.

Before he could even make a move, a crisp slap landed on his face.

Ye Kang was so fast that no one could react before they saw Young Master Ma raise his hand and then lie on the ground.

Ye Kang clapped his hands, his face expressionless.

It's so frustrating to finally get to listen to music and then encounter such an idiot.

At this moment, Young Master Ma shouted while wailing, "What are you standing there for! Can't you see I'm being beaten! Attack!"

The young guards behind him finally reacted, their faces hardening as they rushed forward.

Ye Kang didn't tolerate them. With a slight movement, all of them were lying on the ground.

Those guards were at best second- or third-rate experts; they couldn't possibly see Ye Kang's movements clearly, and they were immediately exhausted.

Ye Kang clapped his hands again and looked down at Young Master Ma.

"Who are you?"

Young Master Ma was stunned for a moment, then shouted, "My father is Minister Ma!"

"do not know."

Ye Kang shook his head and then stomped down.

Several crisp sounds were heard, followed by a heart-wrenching wail.

Young Master Ma has already lost three or four fingers on one of his hands.

Ye Kang didn't linger after giving Ling Yu a minor punishment. Under everyone's horrified gazes, he grabbed Ling Yu's arm and strode out.

Lingyu was stunned. It wasn't until they reached the street that he exclaimed in terror, "Second Young Master, run! His father is Minister Ma of the Ministry of Works. He won't let us go!"

Ignoring Ling Yu's worries, Ye Kang instead asked, "Do you know him? Why is he causing trouble?"

Lingyu lowered her head.

"Minister Ma and my father were superior and subordinate. It was Minister Ma who reported my father's embezzlement case to the Ministry of Justice... Young Master Ma has always wanted to take my sister and me as his own. We became maids because we were afraid of being found by him... But my father is innocent!"

"I see. I don't care whether it's a false accusation or not, but this matter of bullying my maid will not be left unresolved. Let's go back now."

Ye Kang lost interest in shopping and took Ling Yu home.

He then changed into a black outfit and quietly left his house.

He dislikes trouble, but since trouble has come, he can't just sit idly by.

After making some inquiries, Ye Kang arrived at Minister Ma's residence.

The decor here was rather understated, but the area was quite large. Ye Kang easily climbed over the wall and disappeared into the night.

Coincidentally, the Minister's residence was in chaos.

Martial artists and maids kept running around, shouting and yelling.

"The doctor is here! Quickly, stop the bleeding, young master!"

"Stop the bleeding! Set my son's bones! Put his finger back on, whatever you do, don't let it break!"

Following the sound, Ye Kang jumped onto a rooftop, lifted the tiles, and saw several doctors, their faces covered in sweat, surrounding Young Master Ma's bedside.

Minister Ma paced back and forth in the room, while the wounded guards knelt at the door.

As Minister Ma was walking, he suddenly kicked one of his guards to the ground.

"Useless! Did I raise you all to do nothing?! How could you let my son suffer such serious injuries!"

"Master, the person who made the move is a master, far stronger than us. We simply cannot defeat him!"

"Still trying to argue! If my son's hand is ruined, I won't let you get away with this!"

Minister Ma gritted his teeth in anger, and as he listened to his son's wails, his expression gradually turned ruthless.

“Madam, you stay here and watch over our son. I’m going to the backyard to find Mr. Kang.”

"Master, you must do justice for Teng'er!"

"rest assured."

Minister Ma walked out of the room with a gloomy face and headed straight for the backyard.

Ye Kang quietly followed.

In the bamboo grove in the backyard, a middle-aged man was practicing martial arts.

Minister Ma stepped forward and said, "Mr. Kang, my son has been humiliated. The villains were ruthless. I beg you, Mr. Kang, to avenge my son!"

Mr. Kang turned his head, feeling something was off. He looked around but saw nothing, and then felt relieved.

"Your Excellency, I have said before that I will not take action unless absolutely necessary."

"Mr. Kang! I listened to what you said and secretly ordered the Ministry of Works to build so many fortresses and pavilions for you. Now, I have a small request. Why won't you grant it?"

"Minister, that's because you have the divine Gu planted by the Holy Maiden. My task is only to supervise whether you are doing a good job for the Holy Maiden. I have no reason to take action for you."

The two exchanged a few words, leaving Ye Kang, who was hiding in the shadows, speechless.

Good guy!

I've overheard an incredible secret!

This old minister seems to be controlled by the Holy Maiden and has been doing things for them all along.

Who is the saintess?

What kind of organization are these people from?

However, the two men did not discuss this topic again in their conversation.

After much pleading from Minister Ma and offering a considerable amount of gold and silver, Mr. Kang finally agreed to help him commit murder.

Ye Kang silently observed everything, paying particular attention to Mr. Kang's appearance.

A moment later, Minister Ma's guards gave Mr. Kang Lingyu's address, which was also the Ye family's address.

After looking at it, he took out a pair of silver hooks and walked towards the Ye family.

Ye Kang silently followed, and when they reached a secluded spot, seeing that the time was right, Ye Kang did not hesitate. He formed a hundred sword energies of the Hundred Flowers Sword and attacked Mr. Kang's back in an instant.

Mr. Kang was also a master of the first rank of the Innate Realm, but he was powerless to resist. As soon as he realized there was danger, he was riddled with holes by the sword energy.

He fell to the ground unwillingly, his eyes filled with confusion.

I don't understand how I died so inexplicably.

Ye Kang jumped down, wrapped the corpse in a rag from the roadside, and put it into the Moyu Ancient Treasure.

Ancient artifacts cannot contain living things, but they can contain dead things.

In this way, no one could find the body; all they could see was a pool of blood.

After doing all that, he had another thought, and a mesmerizing blue butterfly danced between his fingers.
