Chapter 2002: Dig to its roots!

~5 min read 861 words

Ye Chen knew that Zhao Yinsheng had not lied.

In order to survive, he had already said everything he knew.

Thus, Ye Chen also fulfilled his promise and said to Zhao Yinsheng, "Congratulations on becoming the only person on this yacht to survive."

As he spoke, he looked at Wan Pojun and instructed, "Pojun, take him and those Italians to Syria together."

Wan Pojun nodded and said, "Mr. Ye, I will notify the cargo ship in the port to set sail now. It just so happens that our ship is also heading back. We can find a place to meet in the middle, transfer these people on the ship over, and then the cargo ship will head directly to Syria without stopping."

"Good!" Ye Chen instructed, "During the voyage, be sure to tell the soldiers to guard strictly; they must not let a single person escape!"

Wan Pojun immediately said, "Mr. Ye, rest assured, the soldiers of Wanlong Palace will absolutely complete the mission 100%!"

Zhao Yinsheng asked nervously at this moment, "Mr... Mr. Ye... why are you taking me to Syria?!"

Ye Chen said coldly, "To leave you a way to live. You only have two choices: either die here like these corpses in the sea and wait to be salvaged, or honestly follow the soldiers of Wanlong Palace to Syria. You can find a way to survive there. You decide for yourself."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yinsheng immediately shut his mouth tactfully.

Everyone else was dead; only he was still alive.

At a time like this, he was already the luckiest one.

What else was there to hesitate about?

Thinking of this, he immediately said to Ye Chen, "Mr. Ye... I... I am willing to go to Syria..."

Ye Chen nodded and said to Wan Pojun, "Have someone take him down, and return."

The cargo ship turned in the sea and sailed in the direction it had come from.

On the deck, Ye Chen faced the sea breeze, his heart as restless as the waves beneath his feet.

Regarding today's events, he actually had two choices. One was to stop here; with the commotion caused tonight, even the Qiao family would likely never dare to come to Vancouver to commit evil again, and those gangs entrenched in Vancouver would certainly be in a state of panic after dawn tomorrow. There would definitely be no one who dared to harbor any crooked ideas about Li Xiaofen again.

But if he did that, Vancouver would be safe, but other places might not change at all.

In that case, such tragedies would continue to unfold in other places, to other young girls.

His other choice was to dig along the Qiao family's line, dig all the way to its roots, and then eradicate it completely.

Admittedly, choosing the first option was the easiest; everything would end here, and no more energy would need to be invested.

However, Ye Chen chose the second option without hesitation!

Some things, if you don't see them, so be it, but if you see them and pretend you haven't, your conscience will be condemned.

Thus, he called Wan Pojun over and instructed, "Pojun, I will return to the United States after dawn. You leave a few female soldiers here to protect Xiaofen and Auntie Li. Oh, right, and that Claudia too."

Wan Pojun immediately said, "Very well, Mr. Ye. I plan to have half of the personnel escort this group back to Syria on the ship, then leave a few female soldiers in Canada, and I will take the rest to Seattle to begin investigating the Qiao family's situation. What do you think?"

Ye Chen nodded and said, "The Qiao family's situation is special. Although they are full of evil, they are actually just a supply chain of crime, like an underground river constantly providing water to those evil beasts downstream. Therefore, we must not only figure out the scale and flow of this underground river, but also figure out exactly how many beasts downstream are drawing water from it. The energy involved behind this might be greater than all of ours combined, so you must be careful and cautious. Prioritize the investigation; do not act rashly."

Wan Pojun said without hesitation, "Very well, Mr. Ye, I understand!"

Immediately after, Wan Pojun hesitated for a moment, gathered his courage, and said to Ye Chen, "Mr. Ye, I... I have something I would like to ask you..."

Ye Chen glanced at him and said indifferently, "You want to ask how I sank Qiao Feiyu's yacht, right?"

"Yes..." Wan Pojun nodded, bowed, and said, "Mr. Ye, I just can't understand, does the path of martial arts, when walked to the end, lead to your realm?"

Ye Chen smiled slightly, shook his head, and said, "Pojun, strictly speaking, I am not a martial artist."

Wan Pojun was instantly horrified and muttered, "You are not a martial artist? Could it be... could it be that the power system you cultivate is a level higher than martial arts?"

"You could say that." Ye Chen laughed, "Compared to martial arts, the path I walk is indeed wider and broader." ===== CHAPTER 2003 =====
