Chapter 32: Counterattack!

Not long after Ye Feng and the others left, Li Zhongshuo arrived at that remote alley with his subordinates.

When he saw the two corpses lying on the ground, his complexion instantly turned livid.

He crouched down, inspected the gunshot wounds on the corpses, and a flash of malice crossed his eyes.

"Trash!"

"With so many people, you actually let two people get away!"

Li Zhongshuo cursed angrily and kicked over a trash can nearby.

His subordinates lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.

Li Zhongshuo's expression was terrifyingly gloomy; he took out his phone and was just about to call for more people when it suddenly rang.

"Hello?"

Li Zhongshuo answered the phone, his tone carrying a hint of impatience.

A hurried voice came from the other end: "Elder Li, it's bad! Ye Feng's mother has been bailed out!"

Hearing this, Li Zhongshuo's aged face instantly turned ferocious, and he roared: "What! Who did it!"

The voice on the other end trembled slightly: "It was... Zhang Guoqiang who personally came forward to bail her out; our people couldn't stop him at all..."

"Zhang Guoqiang?"

A flash of shock and anger crossed Li Zhongshuo's eyes: "How could he intervene in this matter?"

The person on the other end said cautiously: "Elder Li, Zhang Guoqiang is from the Medical Sect; we don't dare to act forcefully."

"Moreover, he found surveillance footage from somewhere, and we had no way to stop it..."

Li Zhongshuo's complexion was so gloomy it could almost drip water.

He hung up the phone fiercely, slammed his fist against the wall, and said through gritted teeth: "Zhang Guoqiang, you actually dare to ruin my plans!"

His subordinates looked at each other, none daring to provoke his wrath at this moment.

Li Zhongshuo took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.

He knew that Zhang Guoqiang's intervention meant the matter had already exceeded his control.

A cold look flashed across his face: "Ye Feng... Ghost Doctor Sect, do you really think you can escape my palm like this? Keep dreaming!"

Then, Li Zhongshuo turned to his subordinates and said: "Go check Zhang Guoqiang's movements immediately!"

"Also, send people to keep a close watch on the Gu Group and Ye Feng's residence; I don't believe they can keep hiding forever!"

Seeing Li Zhongshuo's anger, his subordinates nodded quickly and moved into action.

Li Zhongshuo stood where he was, looking into the depths of the alley with cold eyes, a sneer curling his lips: "Medical Sect? Interesting!"

"This game has only just begun!"

On the other side, Xie Junhao drove Ye Feng and Gu Ran to a secluded villa.

The villa was located in the mountains and forests on the outskirts of Tianhai City, surrounded by tall trees, appearing exceptionally quiet.

The car stopped in front of a rustic building. After getting out, Xie Junhao said to Ye Feng and Gu Ran: "We're here, follow me inside."

Gu Ran supported the injured Ye Feng and followed Xie Junhao inside.

As soon as they entered the door, Ye Feng saw a familiar figure—Shen Yurou!

At this moment, she was sitting on the sofa in the living room; although her complexion was a bit pale, her spirit seemed quite good.

Ye Feng rushed forward, took his mother's hand, and said excitedly: "Mom, are you alright? Did they give you a hard time?"

Shen Yurou shook her head, a gratified smile appearing on her face: "Xiaofeng, Mom is fine. Thanks to Mr. Zhang, it was he who saved me!"

"Mr. Zhang?"

Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Xie Junhao.

Xie Junhao smiled and pointed to the other side of the living room: "Mr. Zhang is inside, you go in."

After saying this, he turned and walked in directly.

Ye Feng and Gu Ran looked at each other, and eventually walked in.

As soon as they entered, they saw a slender middle-aged man standing in front of the window with his back to them.

Hearing footsteps, the man turned around with a gentle smile on his face: "Young Friend Ye, President Gu, you've arrived."

At this time, Xie Junhao, who was to the side, introduced: "This is Director Zhang of Tianhai City Hospital, Zhang Guoqiang. It was he who took action to save your mother!"

Zhang Guoqiang waved his hand, his tone relaxed: "No need to be polite, I just did what I had to do."

Seeing this, Ye Feng's heart was filled with gratitude; he almost knelt to thank Zhang Guoqiang, but was caught by the man: "Young Friend Ye, a man's knees have gold under them, there is no need for this."

Gu Ran also stepped forward, her tone carrying a hint of respect: "Mr. Zhang, we owe this to you. May I ask why you wanted to help us?"

Zhang Guoqiang smiled, his gaze landing on Ye Feng: "I helped you because I am very interested in this young friend."

Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, somewhat puzzled: "Interested in me?"

Zhang Guoqiang nodded, his tone carrying a hint of depth: "Young Friend Ye, I heard you are proficient in the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles. I wonder if it is true or false?"

Ye Feng's expression changed slightly, and he asked with a frown: "Mr. Zhang, how do you know about the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles?"

Zhang Guoqiang did not answer directly, but instead turned and took a mannequin model from the cabinet nearby and placed it on the table: "Young Friend Ye, if you don't mind, could you demonstrate the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles for me?"

Ye Feng hesitated for a moment and turned to look at Gu Ran and his mother. Shen Yurou nodded gently, her eyes full of encouragement.

Gu Ran also whispered: "Ye Feng, Mr. Zhang is our benefactor; he won't harm us."

Ye Feng took a deep breath and nodded: "Alright, then I shall show my incompetence."

He walked to the mannequin, took the Silver Needle prepared by Zhang Guoqiang in advance, and used Qi to Control Needles. One could see the Silver Needle in his hand as if it had life, precisely piercing the various acupoints of the mannequin.

As the needle technique was applied, the mannequin's body actually began to tremble slightly, as if it had gained vitality.

Zhang Guoqiang watched Ye Feng's movements, a flash of approval in his eyes: "As expected of the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles, bringing the dead back to life and regrowing flesh on bones; it truly lives up to its reputation!"

After the demonstration, Ye Feng waved his hand, retrieved the Silver Needle, and put it back in its original place. Then, he turned to look at Zhang Guoqiang: "Mr. Zhang, who exactly are you, and why do you also know about the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles?"

Zhang Guoqiang did not answer him, but instead asked: "What is your relationship with the Ghost Doctor Sect?"

Ye Feng frowned: "The Ghost Doctor Sect again? I have no idea what the Ghost Doctor Sect is!"

Hearing this, Zhang Guoqiang also frowned: "You don't know?"

"Then how do you know their Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles?"

Ye Feng did not answer, only responding with silence.

Seeing this, Zhang Guoqiang did not ask further; after all, everyone has their own secrets!

Afterwards, he pointed at the Silver Needle Ye Feng had just used and said: "Keep that Silver Needle; perhaps it will be of great use in the future!"

Ye Feng scratched his head: "This... how could I accept this!"

"If I tell you to take it, then take it!"

At this moment, Xie Junhao walked over, patted Ye Feng on the shoulder, and said with a smile.

After speaking, he turned around, looked outside, and his gaze became sharp: "It is time to strike back!"
