Finally Lifting a Corner of the Mysterious Veil

“Sell, sell, sell—I’m selling too...”
“My shares are for sale as well...”
“Count me in...”

Upon hearing Su Yunting’s reluctant agreement, Su Danchen, Su Lei, and Su Rui hurriedly voiced their intentions, fearful of being punished by Ye Huan for hesitation.

Just as they finished speaking, Jin Jiu arrived at the perfect moment, carrying the share transfer documents and accompanied by a lawyer.

“Make them sign and seal!” Ye Huan commanded.

Jin Jiu swiftly distributed the share transfer documents, pens, and ink pads to Su Yunting, Su Danchen, Su Lei, and Su Rui.

Without hesitation, none of the four even glanced at the contents; they quickly signed and stamped the documents.

Afterwards, Ye Huan signed and sealed each of the share transfer documents in turn and said, “I didn’t bring any cash with me, so the payment for your shares will have to be on credit for now.”

Su Yunting, Su Danchen, Su Lei, and Su Rui were nearly furious enough to curse. Not a single cent to spare?

At that moment, Xu Baichuan’s heart churned wildly with longing for greater strength. To him, possessing power meant being able to seize decades of others’ hard work at will, just like Ye Huan.

What Xu Baichuan didn’t realize was that even a war god wouldn’t dare openly rob like Ye Huan did, as such acts would surely incur legal and official war god sanctions.

But Ye Huan was different—he could act with impunity. No nation on earth, no law or official war god dared to punish him, nor could they.

“Director Xu, seeing how badly Mr. Su is hurt, shouldn’t you help get him to the operating room?” Ye Huan smiled at Xu Baichuan, signaling Jin Jiu with his eyes.

“Yes, yes!” Xu Baichuan quickly scooped up Su Yunting and rushed out of the ward.

“Well then, I’ll take Mr. Tian to the doctor!” Jin Jiu, feigning great concern for Tian Nong, picked up the unconscious man and left the room.

Ye Huan cast a deep glance at Su Danchen, Su Lei, and Su Rui before leaving the ward as well, following Jin Jiu to an empty room.

“Sir, I’m stepping out now. Call me if you need anything!” Jin Jiu, knowing Ye Huan intended to interrogate Tian Nong, left obediently!

Ye Huan ignored him, crouched down, and pried open Tian Nong’s mouth. After some searching, he found a poison capsule hidden behind one of Tian Nong’s molars and pulled it out.

“You really are in league with the hackers invading the Lin Group!” Ye Huan said coldly as he roused Tian Nong.

Tian Nong shot up instantly, throwing a punch at Ye Huan’s face.

In his eyes, the earlier slap that knocked him out was due only to underestimating his opponent; he believed his strength far surpassed this butcher.

So this punch was thrown with all his might.

Yet Ye Huan merely raised his left hand, casually caught Tian Nong’s fist, and with a slight squeeze—

“Ah!”

Tian Nong cried out in pain, staring in disbelief as Ye Huan’s grip made his right fist feel as if it were being crushed.

Only then did he realize his strength was far inferior to Ye Huan’s—the butcher’s power exceeded that of a war general.

“Speak. What kind of organization are you and the hackers from? Who are its members? And why are you so desperate to take down the Lin Group?” Ye Huan asked coldly, still holding Tian Nong’s fist.

“Hmph! You think your strength is enough to force me to betray my organization? Think again...” Tian Nong defied him, trying to bite down on the poison capsule hidden behind his molar to commit suicide, but failed miserably.

“I already removed the poison capsule while you were unconscious,” Ye Huan said indifferently.

Tian Nong was speechless.

“Talk, or I’ll start using harsh interrogation methods!” Ye Huan threatened.

Tian Nong sneered, “I’m someone who doesn’t even fear death. How could I fear your torture?”

“I never said I’d torture you. I meant your family,” Ye Huan retorted, pulling out his phone and opening a dossier sent by the cult leader earlier, then handing it to Tian Nong.

Tian Nong took the phone, eyes widening in disbelief as he saw the files—records of him and his entire family.

“I just arrived in Peng City today and have been in contact with Su Yunting and Jin Jiu for less than two hours. How did you know I existed? How did you find my information so quickly?” he asked in shock.

Of course, his greatest question was how Ye Huan knew he had approached Su Yunting, Jin Jiu, and Xu Baichuan.

“I have a hacker under my command who infiltrated and took over the hospital’s surveillance system. The moment you entered the rooms of Su Danchen and Su Lei, he started tracking you, took screenshots, and found your info in the national population database,” Ye Huan said half-truthfully.

In reality, Jin Jiu informed him after Tian Nong contacted Su Yunting, prompting the cult leader to investigate Tian Nong.

“I see,” Tian Nong said, suddenly understanding and dismissing his suspicions of Jin Jiu and Xu Baichuan.

“So you mean if I don’t confess, you’ll send people after my family?” he asked.

“That’s right,” Ye Huan nodded.

Tian Nong laughed, “Then send them quickly. But I warn you, my eldest brother is a martial artist with the title of War King. You’d better send someone stronger than him to the Tian family.”

He meant he didn’t believe Ye Huan had anyone stronger than a War King and wasn’t worried about threats to his family.

“You won't believe it until you see the coffin,” Ye Huan said, taking back his phone and showing Tian Nong a video sent by Yao Ji.

Tian Nong’s smile froze as he watched the footage.

In the video, all members of the Tian family were bound like bundles, gagged with socks, and lying on the ground.

“You...you...” Tian Nong was truly terrified now.

“How did you manage to take control of my entire family in Mo Bei in such a short time?” he asked, shocked.

The Hellgate had branches in every country and city worldwide, including Mo Bei, Ye Huan thought but said aloud, “You don’t need to know that. Confess quickly, or I’ll chop your family to pieces and make you watch every moment.”

“I confess...”

Tian Nong’s mental defenses finally collapsed. At the same time, he realized Ye Huan was backed by a vast force whose members were spread across every city in China.

It was because of this support that Ye Huan could so swiftly seize the Tian family.

“What kind of organization are you and the hackers from? Who are the members?” Ye Huan asked.

“Our organization is called the ‘Lin Extermination Guild.’ It was formed solely to destroy the Lin Group,” Tian Nong confessed, unable to hide further.

“As for the members, I don’t know. We never meet face to face, only communicating through texts and emails.”

Ye Huan frowned. Whatever the Lin Group had done, it had provoked such a formidable alliance.

Not only had this ‘Lin Extermination Guild’ been formed, but the organization was shrouded in mystery with strict discipline—the moment a member was exposed, they took their own life without hesitation.

“Why are you so determined to wipe out the Lin Group?” Ye Huan asked.

“I don’t know!” Tian Nong shook his head. Seeing the murderous glint in Ye Huan’s eyes, he hurriedly added, “I really don’t know. I’m just a henchman for the Lin Extermination Guild, not privy to secrets. But it seems the Lin Group's research department developed something that threatens all members of our guild.”
