Chapter 1 “I Don’t Want to Kill!” (p2)
Leaf City, Beautiff Corporation.
After a long cab ride, Ye Chen now stands in front of a huge towering structure at its main entrance. He didn’t go in right away, only glancing down at the note in his hand in order to verify this was the right place by matching the name above the sliding glass door. Once that’s done, he finally went in, after all, he doesn’t want to waste time heading into some random company and making a fool of himself while there’s plenty more to do. For example, investigating the bastard who killed his parents five years ago.
Sadly, according to his investigation thus far, he only knows the person’s name and that was Lord Long. Aside from that tiny piece of information, he had nothing else to go on, hence his need to return to that villa.
Now as for why he would come here to this unfamiliar building instead of furthering his quest for revenge, it’s because of Ye Chen’s shifu. The old gramp made a specific request to this student here and demanded he help the current female president of the Beautiff Corporation. Naturally Ye Chen’s master didn’t have the hots for some young lass that’s barely old enough to be the old man’s granddaughter, rather it’s the president’s grandmother that’s the key. According to the pieces of info he got, Ye Chen discovered his shifu had some sort of love hate relationship with the grandmother during their youth.
Talk about a troublesome relationship….
As to the actual request itself. Ye Chen’s shifu didn’t ask for much, only that he save the young girl from a life-threatening event that’s going to happen somewhere between the next hundred days. Normally such talks would be considered superstition and nonsense, but the old gramp wasn’t what you would call a normal person. In fact, Ye Chen’s shifu had tapped into heaven’s secret and calculated it all. The main issue though was the old fart only demanded this young man go help and didn’t give any specifics as to what sort of danger that entailed. Heck, he didn’t even get a clue on how to resolve the issue and only got told to act accordingly to his instincts and the situation.

……
“Stop!”
Suddenly, a cold snappy voice calls out to Ye Chen from the front. It’s two burly man wearing a security uniform. Based on their dark skin, sharp eyes, arms full of muscle, it’s quite apparent they’re used to getting the attention of the crowd based on their strong visual impact.
“Hello, I am looking for Xia Ru Xue, your company’s president.” Naturally he wouldn’t move against these two despite the rudeness so he began to state his reasoning for the visit instead.
In response, the security guard who cried out at him began to make a snickering sneer: “You want to meet President Xia Ru Xue? Well then, do you have an appointment?”
“No, I don’t.” He answers with honesty.
“Then do you have a work identification from the Beautiff Group?”
“I don’t either.”
Upon hearing up to here, the security guard’s patience was done and the haughtiness immediately shone through, thus revealing their true colors. Pointing at the exit with disdain in his voice: “If that’s the case then please leave, the door is that way!”
As one of the top five hundred company in the country and a leading figurehead of a corporation in Leaf City, these security guards naturally felt they are entitled to a sense of superiority among some nobody that just stomped into their work area. Therefore, they are not going to show any form of mannerism to Ye Chen and only intends to toss him out from the company’s premise!
Exactly then right before these security guards are about to move against Ye Chen, several men wearing black suits had come out from a Mercedes e200 nearby. The new visitors first inquired about meeting the company’s president just like him and naturally got rejected in kind. But unlike Ye Chen who’s being removed, the group only exchanged a disappointed face among themselves before taking a seat at the nearest sofa of the waiting area.
Discovering there’s still this option, Ye Chen would of course not give up so easily. Pointing to the sofa as well: “Alright, I’ll wait over there then.” That said, he began to walk towards the free seats that hasn’t been occupied yet.
Unfortunately, what he didn’t expect though was the way the two guards reacted to his statement. Almost immediately, his path was blocked once again.
“Boy, are you deaf or something? Don’t force me to say it a third time, the door is that way so get the hell out of here!” One of the burly guards began to shout and flail his finger around like he’s talking to some lowly insect unfit to be in his presence.
This level of disrespect promptly earned a frown from the young man himself. He only just arrived at Leaf City so there’s no way he could’ve crossed these in some unknown way.
Why are they making things so difficult for me?
“Then why can they sit and I can’t?” He points to the group of suited men that arrived after himself.
Before answering Ye Chen, one of the security guards instead began to examine him from head to toe. Snickering with sarcasm: “Nothing but a country bumpkin and you still want to meet the president? Why don’t you have a look in the mirror first. Now scram, otherwise we will toss you out instead.”
Ye Chen couldn’t help but his head at their audacity. He understands now, these two are looking down on himself because of the order of wear he has on – a t-shirt and a baseball cap.
To think Leaf City is still the same place it used to be, it seems five years didn’t change this city at all….
“And what if I don’t want to?” he asks with a darkening face.
“Don’t want to go? I think you’re looking for death then!”
As soon as that was said, one of the securities didn’t wait and directly placed his hand onto Ye Chen’s shoulder, those veins clearly popping. The person made no attempt at hiding his disdainful smirk because he’s so sure of himself.
Well, it’s not like this security guard was being pompous or overly confident in this regard. Just a few days ago there was also another country bumpkin who challenged his authority here in the building. The results were one swipe of his hand across the person’s face and the guy was sent flying three meters into the air. From what he heard, that poor sap still couldn’t leave the hospital bed due to his act.
Unfortunately for this security guard with the burly beard, he’s messing with the wrong person today. When he flexed his muscle in order to shove Ye Chen away, the expected body flying didn’t happen at all. Gradually, that overly confident and pompous grin disappeared. In its place was a face of horror and shock.
The reasoning? It’s because he discovered the youth in front of himself was unmovable, just like a mountain itself! What’s more, a sense of dread had crept up from his spine, causing his pores to spew out sweat like it’s been pouring rain today.
By this point the second security guard had noticed the oddity of his partner. Laughing aloud: “Hey Stone, what’s wrong with you, why are you sweating so much in broad daylight? Don’t tell me, did your wife suck you dry or something last night? Hahaha! Here, I’ll do it if you can’t.” That said, the other man’s hand began to reach over for Ye Chen’s shoulder as well.
“Scram! I don’t want to kill anyone.” His cold frosty voice suddenly booms out like a rolling thunder. At the same moment, he also lifted his left leg and stomped down. When he did so, a huge gush of wind promptly blew out like a shockwave, smashing directly into both men’s chest and sent them flying.
The pair didn’t even know what hit them at the moment. To these muscle builders that carried a slight advantage over the average citizen, they only found their innards screaming in pain as their bodies flew backwards from nothing, all the while blood continued to pour out of their mouth after landing against the nearest tempered glass and shattering it!
