NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 24
Chapter 24: Ye Yang Severely Injured:
“Father, what did you just say? Are you going to let Ye Yang go?”
Liu Cheng’s eyes were red as he questioned his father, thinking he must have misheard. His father had just said to let Ye Yang go.
“I know you hate the person who killed Xiaotian, but the real killer isn’t Ye Yang. If we go after Ye Yang, we’ll be falling into a trap.” Liu Zhong said seriously to Liu Cheng.
“Many people saw Ye Yang beat Xiaotian to death, and there’s video evidence. You’re saying Ye Yang isn’t the real killer? Then who is?” Liu Cheng angrily flipped the table over.
“Father, don’t force me to sever our father-son relationship.”
Liu Cheng usually feared his father and followed his instructions, but his son was dead, and his father was protecting an outsider. His own grandson was less important than a stranger.
“Don’t tell me Ye Yang isn’t the killer. I only believe what I see. Whether he’s the killer or not, he must die.”
“So, Father, if you don’t want me to cut ties with you, tell me where Ye Yang is.”
His son was dead, and as a father, if he didn’t avenge him, what kind of person would he be?
“I asked the people who were with Xiaotian. He bought a pill from an old beggar. That old beggar is the real killer.”
“Even so, Ye Yang can’t escape responsibility. Once Ye Yang is dead, I’ll find the real culprit.”
“If you won’t tell me where Ye Yang is, I’ll find him myself.”
Liu Cheng left angrily, disappointed in his father.
“Thank you, Grandpa Liu. I will find the real killer and thank you properly.” Ye Yang said, coming downstairs.
Yes, Ye Yang had been at the Liu house all along.
“I hope you find the killer soon.” Liu Zhong said, looking much older. His once sturdy body now trembled just standing.
Ye Yang nodded and left the Liu family’s villa.
As soon as he stepped into a nearby alley, he became alert and dodged to the left.
Swish!
A throwing knife grazed Ye Yang’s face, leaving a cut.
Ye Yang looked up to see a man dressed in black, wearing a hood and a mask.
“Are you the one framing me? From the Zhao family?” Ye Yang clenched his fists, eyes full of murderous intent.
“I’m here to take your life.”
The masked man instantly kicked at Ye Yang’s temple.
Ye Yang blocked with his arm but was knocked back, his injured arm trembling from the force. Already weakened from using a burst technique, Ye Yang was in a passive position.
The masked man’s continuous close-range attacks were powerful, and Ye Yang, in his weakened state, couldn’t defend.
“Shoulder Smash.”
The force gathered in the masked man’s shoulder as he rammed into Ye Yang.
“Ugh!”
Ye Yang was sent flying, vomiting blood. The dark Qi had injured his internal organs. If he weren’t a Dark Qi Realm martial artist, he’d be dead.
“Damn it.” Ye Yang cursed. If he weren’t injured and weakened, he wouldn’t lose to this masked man.
The masked man showed no mercy, his powerful punch aimed at Ye Yang’s heart.
“You forced me.”
Ye Yang took out two silver needles and pierced a specific acupoint, his energy instantly surging, and his weakness vanishing.
Boom!
He punched back, sending the masked man flying, though he also staggered back several steps.
“I want to see who you are.”
Ye Yang’s fingers held a silver needle.
His medical skills could save or kill, and he knew every acupoint in the body. He was confident he could subdue the masked man in a few moves.
“Retreat.”
Just as the masked man was about to attack again, a voice in his earpiece ordered him to retreat.
“You’re lucky.”
The masked man gave Ye Yang a murderous glare before turning to leave.
“Damn it, he got away.”
Ye Yang hesitated but ultimately didn’t chase after him. He didn’t know if the masked man had allies, and his boosted strength wouldn’t last long.
Ye Yang quickly left the area.

“What a beautiful sound.”
Chu Mochen said contentedly, leaning against Ji Moxue, a stark contrast to the battered Ye Yang.
The masked man was Ah Jin, who wore a camera, allowing Chu Mochen to watch the entire fight.
Ye Yang had been beaten badly and was definitely seriously injured by Ah Jin.
However, Chu Mochen knew that if the fight continued, the strengthened Ye Yang would defeat Ah Jin, so he ordered Ah Jin to retreat.
“63,000 Villain Points.”
“Use 60,000 Villain Points to upgrade Nine Yang Divine Technique.” Chu Mochen instructed the system.
He lacked power, which was essential for contending with the protagonist. Although Ye Yang couldn’t beat him now, Ye Yang had a master.
Instantly, Chu Mochen’s internal energy surged, and his physique greatly improved. Though Nine Yang Divine Skill wasn’t a hardening technique, it significantly enhanced his body.
“7th level.”
Chu Mochen had invested nearly 80,000 Villain Points in Nine Yang Divine Technique, now reaching the 7th level. In just a few days, upgrading the last two levels would be challenging, requiring about 70,000 more Villain Points.
