A miraculous doctor descended from the heavens.

Long Tai arrived at the Ding family villa with only two bodyguards.

Despite the urgency of the situation, he still followed the old rules set by Ding Lisheng: the car was parked outside, his men waited outside, he went through the electronic gate for inspection, and only then did he enter the villa.

At this moment, Ding Hanhan had already finished getting ready and was standing next to the Bentley, constantly dialing the phone, looking slightly anxious.

The four bodyguards responsible for her safety stood respectfully to the side, but the guards that Old Man Ding had previously hired for her were nowhere to be seen.

Seeing that Ding Hanhan had only brought so few people with her, Long Tai was secretly pleased, but on the surface he pretended to be concerned and deliberately advised, "Miss, is this all you've brought? Wouldn't it be safer to call more people? For example, you could call the group of people who usually protect you when you go out."

"These past few days, Yihe has been constantly integrating, and they've been protecting me day and night; they've really worked hard. Now that things have calmed down a bit, I specifically granted them a day off to relax. Time is so tight now, there's no time to get them all back. Besides, Liu Lei's family is just the elderly, women, and children; the Four Heavenly Kings are more than enough to handle them. And as you said, the more discreet this is, the better; it's not advisable to publicize it. Too many people around will only alert them." Ding Hanhan shook her head, dialed her phone again, but still no one answered. She frowned, "What's wrong with the advisor? He's not answering the phone."

"Perhaps he's already retired for the night," Long Tai said calmly, but inwardly he thought with a cold laugh: Maybe he'll never answer the phone again.

"Forget it, let's not wait for him. Master Long, lead the way." Ding Hanhan waved her hand decisively and bent down to get into the Bentley.

"Okay." Long Tai replied, and as he turned to get into the car, a sinister smile finally appeared on his face. "You've chosen the path to heaven, so don't blame me."

Long Tai and his two bodyguards led the way in their car, followed by Ding Hanhan with two of the Four Great Protectors in the middle, and the other two of the Four Great Protectors bringing up the rear. The three cars filed out of the Ding family villa's outer courtyard.

With time running out, all three cars sped off towards Sha Kok Pier.

Long Tai glanced in the rearview mirror and saw Ding Hanhan's car following closely behind, like a fish that had taken the bait. His smile deepened.

After waiting for thirty years, today has finally come.

What does it mean to see the light at the end of the tunnel? Perhaps it will happen tonight.

About twenty minutes later, the three cars sped to Shajiao Wharf.

Longtai's car suddenly veered off onto a secluded side road, bumping along the potholed dirt road for two or three kilometers before finally arriving at the long-abandoned ferry crossing.

The ferry crossing was deserted and desolate, pitch black all around, eerily quiet.

There were no ships at sea, only the biting night wind pushing the waves up and down.

Longtai's car came to a stop first, followed by the other two. The group got out of the cars, and the sea breeze that hit them was bone-chilling; they all instinctively pulled their coats tighter.

Ding Hanhan looked around; the dock was completely dark, without a single ray of light. She couldn't help but ask, "Master Long, where did Liu Lei and the others board the ship?"

Long Tai didn't respond. Instead, he took out a cigar from his pocket, lit it with a windproof lighter, took a deep drag, and exhaled the smoke before slowly saying, "Miss, Liu Lei can't board the ship."

"What do you mean?" Ding Hanhan asked, puzzled.

"Not only him," Long Tai said with a strange smile, "you probably won't be able to get on either."

"Master Long, what exactly do you mean by that?" Ding Hanhan's voice suddenly turned cold.

Long Tai, however, answered irrelevantly: "Miss, do you know how old I was when I started following Ding Lisheng?"

He actually called Ding Lisheng by his name. Ding Hanhan's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately sensed something was wrong. She glanced around warily.

The four guardian deities also rushed to her side, glaring menacingly at Long Tai.

Long Tai remained unfazed, his gloomy eyes fixed on Ding Hanhan as he spoke to himself, "You don't know, do you? But I remember it perfectly. I followed him when I was fifteen, and I'm forty-five this year—a full thirty years. I risked my life for Yihe, made countless contributions, and have countless knife and gun wounds on my body to build this foundation for him. But in the end, what have I gotten?"

"Master Long, everyone knows your achievements, but my father has also treated you well. Didn't he make you the head of the First Hall of Yihe?" Ding Hanhan questioned coldly.

"What's so great about a mere hall master! What I want to be is the leader!" Long Tai suddenly roared at her.

"Master Long, you can only wear a hat that fits your head; it's fate. You've seen the fate of Bazi and Tyrannosaurus Rex with your own eyes. Wishful thinking will only lead you down their path," Ding Hanhan said coldly.

"Hehe." Long Tai just chuckled sinisterly, without refuting her words, though he felt a slight unease at her words.

"Yihe was founded by my father. From the very beginning, he established a rule that no matter what happens in the future, it will be passed down as a family business. Now that he has fallen, you jump out and say you want to be the leader. Isn't that kicking someone when they're down?" Ding Hanhan sneered.

"I know, all the gang leaders know. It's because we all know we have no chance that tonight happened." Long Tai chuckled wickedly.

"Long Tai! So you deliberately lured me out? Liu Lei didn't even board the ship here?" Ding Hanhan was furious.

"Hey, Miss, you're only realizing this now? Isn't it a bit too late?" Long Tai laughed maniacally, then said, "To tell you the truth, Liu Lei and his family don't need to get back on the ship at all—they should already be reunited underground."

"What did you say?!" Ding Hanhan was shocked.

"Still don't understand? Fine, since you're not leaving tonight anyway, I'll just tell you everything, so you can die knowing the truth. I was the one who drugged and knocked out your man; I was the one who had that video filmed; and I arranged for that package. I also sent Liu Lei's family away. Haha, I thought you, a little brat, would be completely flustered after catching your man cheating on you. Who knew you would use the excuse of finding Liu Lei to stage a major reorganization and establish your authority in the gang once again. I have to admit, although you're a woman, your ruthlessness and cunning do have the potential to be a leader. But what good are your abilities? That position is ultimately mine."

"Long Tai, how dare you! You have no regard for the gang rules and have done such a heinous thing. I, Ding Hanhan, will never let you get away with this!" Ding Hanhan gritted her teeth in hatred.

"Haha, you won't let me go? What a joke. What makes you think you can stop me? Your crazy man? Your old, half-buried advisor? Or your father who can never stand up again?" Long Tai sneered repeatedly, pressing forward step by step. "Let me tell you the truth, they're all too busy taking care of themselves right now!"

The four bodyguards immediately drew their knives and clubs, fiercely protecting Ding Hanhan. Long Tai, however, ignored them, his smile growing even more contemptuous.

"Long Tai, what... what do you want to do?" Ding Hanhan's voice finally trembled slightly.

"What do I want? Since you have no intention of letting me go, I naturally won't let you live either." Long Tai said, pointing around the desolate ferry crossing. "Young Miss, look at this place. The wind is cool and the water is cold; it's truly an auspicious burial ground. Do you think it's suitable as your final resting place?"

"Bullshit!" Ding Hanhan shouted angrily, then sneered, "Long Tai, do you think you can keep me here with just these two guys you brought?"

"Two people? Oh, right, I forgot, you also brought these Four Heavenly Kings—the four toughest men in the Yihe Gang. Hmm, my two bodyguards are really just for show. You're right, they alone can't take you down. Since they're not enough, I'll have to call some more people." Long Tai said sarcastically, then raised his hands and clapped them three times.

"Boom—Boom—" A series of engine roars suddenly rang out in the distance.

Immediately afterwards, countless car lights turned on simultaneously, the blinding beams illuminating the abandoned dock as bright as day.

Dozens of vehicles surrounded the area from all directions, kicking up clouds of dust, and finally stopped ten meters away.

The sound of car doors opening and closing was incessant, and a large group of people filed out of the car, surrounding Ding Hanhan and Long Tai and the others in layers.

The bright light made Ding Hanhan almost unable to open her eyes. Her already pale face looked even more bloodless under the cold light.

"Long Tai, you're so despicable," she said, biting her lip and enunciating each word clearly.
