A master of both medicine and martial arts, he recruits a beautiful CEO to cultivate immortality tog

the other side.

Supported by two subordinates, Boss Shi limped into the dark hall of the Night Raven Society headquarters.

His left wrist was twisted unnaturally, his left knee was swollen and deformed, and he was sweating profusely with pain with every step he took. His face was also covered in bruises, making him look extremely disheveled.

The chairman sat in a high-backed chair, his face covered by a jet-black raven mask, his eyes, the only part visible, as deep as a cold pool in the dim light. He had been playing with a jade thumb ring, but upon hearing the noise, he slowly raised his eyes.

"President..." President Shi fell to his knees with a thud, wincing in pain and his voice trembling.

The chairman's gaze swept over his pitiful appearance, his hands paused slightly, and his voice was unreadable: "Shi Yong, looking like this, did you go to fight with some gang, or were you ambushed by your enemies?"

"No...no..." Mr. Shi, also known as Shi Yong, had cold sweat dripping down his forehead.

"It's...it's my fault for not doing my job properly...the money...the money was stolen..."

"The money was stolen?" The chairman's voice suddenly turned cold, and the temperature in the hall seemed to drop abruptly.

He leaned forward slightly, his gaze from behind the mask pressing down on Shi Yong as if it were a physical presence.

"Explain yourself. Who stole it? Are all those dozens of men you employ just for show?"

Shi Yong shuddered and dared not hide anything.

He recounted in fragments how Ye Heng single-handedly stormed into Hongchang Company, how he swiftly defeated all of Ye Heng's men, how he ruthlessly crippled Ye Heng's arm and leg, and finally how he opened the safe and looted everything.

In his narration, he subconsciously emphasized how terrifying Ye Heng's skills were and how he fought desperately but was still no match for him, in an attempt to lessen his guilt.

"More than twenty people, plus Ah Long and Ah Hu, all gone? Just him alone?" After hearing this, the chairman was silent for a moment, then tapped his fingertips lightly on the armrest.

The Night Raven Society's intelligence network recently uncovered a rumor of a master appearing in Jinling, but they never expected it to run right into one of their own men, resulting in such heavy losses.

"Yes...yes, Chairman. That kid is really weird. He moves so fast we can't even see him, and he's incredibly strong. Our people can't even get close to him..."

Shi Yong hurriedly added, his voice trembling with lingering fear.

"Su Group... Ye Heng..." the chairman murmured softly.

He naturally knew about the Su Group; the Su family was deeply rooted in Jinling and a legitimate business tycoon. After failing to collect the debt last time, he thought the other party had given up. Why would they suddenly resort to such drastic measures to collect the debt this time? And even send out such a ruthless character?

"Are you sure he's from the Su family? Is he just here to collect that five million debt?" the chairman pressed, suspecting that other forces might be behind him, such as the Heavenly Phoenix Pavilion, which had always been at odds with the Night Raven Society.

"It's absolutely true! That kid said it himself, he was sent by the Su family to collect debts! And... and he took more than five million, over eight million in cash and gold bars from the safe, he ran off with it all!"

Shi Yong looked dejected, his heart bleeding, for many of those items were his own private collection.

The president leaned back in his chair, lost in thought for a moment.

The Night Raven Society is currently plotting with the Flood Dragon Group to deal with the Heavenly Phoenix Pavilion. This is a major event that will reshape the power structure and requires all efforts to be focused on; failure is not an option.

At this critical juncture, he didn't want to create any unnecessary complications.

He glanced at President Shi kneeling on the ground and uttered two words:

"waste."

Mr. Shi trembled all over, almost wetting himself in fear.

"A deputy leader with dozens of men, unable to protect a place or his own money, and beaten up like this. You've completely disgraced the Night Raven Society."

He waved his hand and said to his trusted aides standing beside him, "Take him away and handle it according to the rules. Let him learn a lesson and know the consequences of incompetence."

Two burly men in black stepped forward and dragged the limp Shi Yong out without expression. Soon, dull thuds and suppressed screams came from the next room.

Ten minutes later, Shi Yong, who was thrown back like a tattered sack, was barely breathing, with old and new injuries piled up, a truly pitiful sight.

The president didn't even glance at him, as if he were dealing with a trivial piece of trash.

"The Su Group... is not to be touched right now. Our target is Tianfeng Pavilion, and we can't afford any unforeseen complications. Let's remember this debt for now."

His voice suddenly turned cold, carrying a chilling edge:

"Once we've dealt with Tianfeng Pavilion and consolidated Jinling's underworld, we'll have more time... to settle accounts with the Su family and this kid named Ye Heng. When that happens, I'll make them pay back a hundredfold, with interest."

He stood up, his black robes fluttering even without wind.

"Clean this place up. Also, the meeting with the Jiaolong Group remains unchanged. As for the funds... I'll transfer them from elsewhere. Tell your subordinates to keep a low profile and avoid causing trouble."

"Yes!" the subordinates responded in unison.

Time flew by, and it was evening of the day of the Tianhai Banquet.

Inside the villa, Ye Heng waited in the living room.

He heard footsteps on the stairs and looked up to see Su Yingxue gracefully walking down.

She wore a custom-made, deep blue off-the-shoulder evening gown, the silky fabric perfectly hugging her graceful figure.

The dress was exquisitely tailored, with the upper body design cleverly outlining her slender waist and graceful shoulder and neck lines, her collarbone as delicate as a butterfly's wing.

She elegantly pulled her long hair up, revealing her smooth forehead and slender neck, with a few stray strands falling beside her ears, adding a touch of gentleness.

Her face, lightly made up, was aloof and stunningly beautiful. Her eyes were like stars, and her lips were the color of cherries. Under the light, she seemed to be enveloped in a faint halo, so noble that people dared not look directly at her.

Ye Heng immediately stood up, walked to Su Yingxue's side, and nodded in admiration as he looked her over, saying, "As expected of my wife, she's so beautiful!"

Su Yingxue paused slightly, a faint blush flashing across her face, but she quickly returned to normal.

She walked up to Ye Heng and handed him an exquisite clothing bag. "This is for you. Since you're representing the Su family, you can't be too casual. I had a suit made to your measurements. Try it on and see if it fits."

Ye Heng took the bag and raised an eyebrow in surprise.

He opened it and saw a well-tailored, high-quality dark gray suit, paired with a neatly pressed shirt and tie.

"I didn't expect President Su to be so thoughtful."

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and change. There's not much time left," Su Yingxue urged.

Ye Heng quickly changed into a suit and came out.

Su Yingxue turned around upon hearing the sound and stared blankly for two seconds.

The well-fitting cut accentuated his tall and slender figure, while the deep gray tone was understated and composed, perfectly complementing his calm demeanor. It made him appear less casual and more sharp and noble.

Ye Heng usually dresses very casually, but today he is dressed in a formal suit, exuding a completely different aura.

She immediately looked away, her tone somewhat unnatural: "He's alright, looks presentable. Remember the precautions I told you: speak less, observe more, especially with people from Tianhai Group."

"Understood, President Su," Ye Heng replied with a smile.
