123: Chapter 122 [Innocent and Justified?] 123: Chapter 122 [Innocent and Justified?] “Help me?

Then I’m even more grateful, but I’m not interested.

The issue with the Qin family—they were the ones who provoked me.

I’m a person who only recognizes logic; I don’t concern myself with the rest.

Anyone looking for trouble is more than welcome!” Ye Tianchen, sitting on a rock on the grass, said this very indifferently.

Cang Lang glanced at Ye Tianchen, now having a clear understanding of this young man’s character.

When there’s no trouble, he’s someone you can jest with, someone who might play a prank or throw some teasing words around.

But once he gets serious, he gives off a vibe of someone not to be trificked with.

If you try to use force, all you’ll be greeted with is his fists.

Cang Lang was glad he arrived just in time to stop the deadly duel between Gudu Ang and Ye Tianchen.

Putting aside the question of who was stronger or weaker between Gudu Ang and Ye Tianchen, considering Gudu Ang’s current status as a high-ranking leader—previously merely one of his subordinates—things couldn’t be more different.

If the fight had gone on and he had been seriously injured or even killed by Ye Tianchen, it would have meant another wave of trouble following the last.

The situation with the Qin family had shaken the entire Capital City, drawing significant concern from the highest levels of the state.

Honestly, Cang Lang was somewhat impressed with Ye Tianchen.

Thinking of him carrying a coffin to the Qin family, beating up Qin Taoyuan and his son Qin Heng, and literally infuriating Qin Yi to death, no matter what, it meant the Qin family was doomed to decline.

But how the situation would be handled was another question.

The state’s top brass would likely intervene, considering Qin Yi’s high-ranking position and the considerable influence he wielded even in death.

Ye Tianchen wasn’t someone to be trifled with either.

Ever since he was discharged from the military, his name had become a hot topic throughout the Capital City.

The phrase that was on everyone’s lips was: “The prodigal son of the Ye family, Ye Tianchen, has undergone a complete transformation.

He recognizes only reason, not persons.

With him, even the Heavenly King would not be able to shoulder the responsibility.”

“Ye Tianchen, I know you’re very skilled and can protect yourself at any time, but have you thought about your parents, your sister, and the other members of the Ye family?

If the national leaders really get angry and decide to eradicate the Ye family to quell this incident with the Qin family, I fear you won’t be able to stop them,” Cang Lang said thoughtfully.

“If the top brass is also so shortsighted, I wouldn’t recommend something like storming the White House and causing a ruckus in the Central Government Building…” Ye Tianchen’s expression shifted as he spoke.

Hearing Ye Tianchen’s words, Cang Lang truly took a sharp breath.

Thinking to himself, he knew Ye Tianchen was someone who meant what he said and would follow through.

Ye Tianchen dared to storm into the White House of M country, and if it hadn’t been for the critical intervention of Thomas, the leader of M country’s Superpower Special Agent Team, Ye Tianchen would probably have had dinner on Hei Bama’s invitation.

If the national leaders really decided to sacrifice the Ye family to settle the Qin family issue, given Ye Tianchen’s temperament, he very well might turn the world upside down.

“The leaders at the top of the state are naturally fair and just, but have you thought about it?

The Qin family wields great power, Qin Yi was an incumbent high-ranking officer, and he has many supporters.

By causing such a disturbance at the Qin family, you’ve created a significant impact.

Those who stand with the Qin family won’t let you off the hook, they will spread rumors, they will build momentum, and when all the public opinion pressure falls on you, even if the higher-ups want to protect you, it will become impossible,” Cang Lang said hurriedly.

Ye Tianchen frowned.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t thought about this, but that he hadn’t anticipated the severity of the situation.

Indeed, as Cang Lang said, if it were just him, he could wander freely, come and go as he pleased, and if anyone dared to trouble him, he could simply go on a killing spree.

But what about his parents?

What about his sister?

He couldn’t possibly stay by their side day and night, and if the national leaders really set their minds to it, his current strength would be insufficient to fight multiple opponents, especially considering that in this world, there are still many strong practitioners from ancient martial arts sects and experts from the superpower world.

Ordinary people might not be able to utilize them, but the national leaders definitely have the capability and resources.

“I want to see the national leaders!” Ye Tianchen thought for a moment and then spoke.

“First come with me to Elder Yang’s place.

He will arrange this matter.

After all, it’s too risky for you to stay at home.

If an assassin comes, it will only endanger your family,” Cang Lang said with a nod.

“I want to see the Chief Leader,” Ye Tianchen said, ignoring Cang Lang and continuing seriously.

“You can’t just see him whenever you want, it requires arrangements.”

“What if someone targets my family while I’m gone?” Ye Tianchen asked.

“Don’t worry about that.

I’ll have Sky Dragon Team elite guards protecting your family around the clock, under orders from Elder Yang.

I don’t think ordinary people would dare make a move,” reassured Cang Lang.

“Good, I’ll go with you.

But let me make one thing clear—if anyone dares to touch my family, I will make sure not a single one of them is left alive,” Ye Tianchen said, frowning deeply.

Cang Lang agreed to everything.

He truly came to help Ye Tianchen; this was also what the big shot, Yang Yi, intended.

The main reason stemmed from Ye Tianchen’s performance during his trip to M country, which was truly eye-opening.

A single man had taken Washington D.C.

by storm and daringly barged into the White House, prompting Hei Bama to offer him a meal.

How many people in the world could match that?

How many people could display such strength?

Thus, such a talent, for a top figure like Yang Yi, was naturally someone to be recruited for his own purposes.

Ye Tianchen said goodbye to his mother, Luo Yan, and after a good explanation and with the guarantee of Cang Lang, who guarded the Capital City, Luo Yan was somewhat reassured.

She watched her son, Ye Tianchen, get into Cang Lang’s military off-road vehicle and leave the doorstep.

Sitting in Cang Lang’s off-road vehicle, Ye Tianchen realized that this time Cang Lang hadn’t brought any other subordinates, just himself, driving an off-road vehicle over.

It seemed he didn’t want to attract attention to themselves, especially since the matter Ye Tianchen was involved in was big, so big that no one dared to openly take a stance so soon.

“We’re going to Elder Yang’s place first, I believe this issue will be dealt with soon.

Chen Sheng has intervened, he even had Gudu Ang personally come to capture you, it seems someone is plotting to take your life behind the scenes!” Cang Lang spoke while driving.

“No big deal, right now I just want to meet with the number one leader and have a chat with him.

As for the smallest matters, whoever stirs them up, they’ll be the unlucky ones,” Ye Tianchen said nonchalantly as he took out a cigarette from his chest pocket, took a puff, and spoke.

“You really know how to keep your composure.

I really don’t know if you’re unaware of the big trouble you’ve caused, or if you just don’t take the Qin family seriously at all,” Cang Lang couldn’t help but truly admire Ye Tianchen.

No matter what situation this guy was in, he always remained calm and composed, not showing the slightest hint of panic.

Such a psychological quality really surprised Cang Lang.

“By the way, Gudu Ang used to be your subordinate, and you two should have a good relationship.

How did it end up like you were enemies?

Could it be you two have a history of…

‘relations’?” Ye Tianchen asked mischievously with a gossiping tone, a playful smile on his face.

“Kid, why do you always make people feel like beating you up?” Cang Lang looked at Ye Tianchen somewhat speechlessly.

“Brother Cang Lang, that’s not right of you.

Nowadays, it’s an open-minded era, same-sex is not guilty, and being gay is justifiable!” Ye Tianchen patted Cang Lang’s shoulder, displaying an expression as if he was consoling Cang Lang who really had something going on with Gudu Ang and was afraid of being scorned by conventional views.

“I’ve realized that you really don’t appreciate what’s good for you.

It seems that even without you saying so, I would have to make a move in our battle!” Cang Lang gave Ye Tianchen a blank look and said.

Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but laugh.

Cang Lang was someone who didn’t joke around, everything he did was serious.

Having been teased a few times by Ye Tianchen, he seemed a bit overwhelmed, which was quite amusing.

“Hey, to tell you the truth, I’m quite curious.

Tell me, what’s the deal with you and Gudu Ang?” Ye Tianchen sighed and asked with a smile.

“I’m really scared of you now.

I’m afraid if I don’t tell you today, you’ll go around saying I’m gay with Gudu Ang…”

“That, I definitely can’t guarantee.

Once I start talking, the words just fly…”

Seeing Ye Tianchen’s smug expression, Cang Lang was truly defeated by the kid.

He had caused such a huge mess and still had the mood to gossip; anyone else would have been panicking and close to tears by now, but only he could be so unfazed.

“To tell the truth, it all started five years ago.

At that time, I had just become one of China’s three great War Kings.

Honestly, this was a title others gave me; it wasn’t something I won in a contest or anything.

Even the question of whether I was stronger or Yan Long was never settled.

At that time, I hadn’t joined the Military Committee; I was just the leader of the Sky Dragon Team, and Gudu Ang got transferred from the military to follow me, becoming my capable War General,” Cang Lang said, reminiscing about the past.

After a pause, Cang Lang continued, “Gudu Ang was really strong.

The reason he was transferred to the Sky Dragon Team was because he was considered the best among the military’s War Kings at that time, his performance was extraordinary, and he had a proud air to him, pride that reached deep into his bones.

So when he came under my command, I wanted to eradicate that arrogance and make him into a real War King.

Unfortunately, his nature was hard to change, and not only did he ignore my words, he also challenged me because of the empty title of one of the three great War Kings…

Later, he was transferred to the Ministry of Public Security and soon became the Deputy Minister.”

“Oh, so Gudu Ang was dissatisfied with you, feeling that you weren’t much better than him, yet you got to be one of China’s three great War Kings, and he couldn’t, so he’s always been dissatisfied with you, his superior, huh…” Ye Tianchen chuckled and said.(To be continued.
