Chapter 49: Capturing

"Interesting!"

Chen Haotian smiled, standing still without making the slightest movement, as if completely stunned.

At the last second before the flying knife reached him, he slightly tilted his head, extended both hands—one already holding a flying knife—and shockingly caught the last knife with his mouth. What a show-off.

"I'll see how impressive you are."

It seemed Tao Ruisi was hooked, ignoring both Gui Suanzi and the Chen family servants as she focused on attacking Chen Haotian.

"Tao Ruisi, get back here!"

Although Gui Suanzi shouted, Tao Ruisi paid him no mind, concentrating entirely on Chen Haotian and throwing flying knives one after another. In less than a minute, she had unleashed dozens of knives.

Of course, all were caught by Chen Haotian.

"Beautiful, is this some kind of mutual love-hate thing?"

Chen Haotian tossed the knives he had caught aside and smiled at Tao Ruisi.

"Liar, you're going to die!"

Chen Haotian's words seemed to completely enrage Tao Ruisi, who launched yet another attack on him.

Meanwhile, having lost Tao Ruisi as an ally, Gui Suanzi was quickly overwhelmed.

A Lei, accompanied by the Chen family servants, attacked fiercely, leaving Gui Suanzi defenseless.

"Tao Ruisi, come back here!"

"Haha… your companions have abandoned you. Prepare for death."

A Lei pressed his advantage, landing a heavy punch on Gui Suanzi's shoulder.

"Ugh… cough, cough…"

Gui Suanzi struggled to rise. Though gravely injured, he resolved to fight to the end.

This can't be!

No… this is too strange!

The King had killed Chen Tianfang's son, Chen Feilong, for Tao Ruisi, yet she hadn't been captured by Li Daoyuan. How was she involved with Chen Feilong now?

Tao Ruisi, never particularly cunning, was suddenly using strategies?

Today, Tao Ruisi had acted completely out of character, relentlessly killing members of the Chen family.

Could it be?

Gui Suanzi thought of something but didn't want to believe it, refusing to accept it as reality.

Bang!

A gunshot rang out. As Gui Suanzi was lost in thought, he felt a sudden weight on his head and collapsed to the ground.

From a distance, Chen Tianfang stood holding a smoking gun.

Everyone was stunned. Their master had shot Gui Suanzi in the head, solving the problem with a single blow.

"What are you waiting for? Go grab her! Catch that woman!"

A Lei and the servants reacted quickly, ignoring Gui Suanzi's body and rushing toward Tao Ruisi.

"Beautiful, your companion is dead. If you don't leave now, you'll likely end up like him."

While fighting, Chen Haotian seized the moment to mock and warn Tao Ruisi.

"You bastards dared to kill Gui Suanzi! I won't let you get away with this!"

Tao Ruisi hurled two flying knives, instantly killing the approaching servants.

When she prepared to continue, she realized she was out of knives.

Facing Chen Haotian, she hesitated, especially with so many servants surrounding her.

Escape!

Tao Ruisi quickly made up her mind.

"Chen Tianfang, you killed my Palace Guard Gui Suanzi. We won't let this slide! Next time we meet, it'll be the end of your Chen family."

With this threat, Tao Ruisi leapt away and escaped from the Chen residence without hesitation.

"Block her! Catch her!" Chen Tianfang shouted.

Chen Haotian, hands on his hips, watched the scene unfold, completely indifferent to Chen Tianfang's orders.

Without Chen Haotian's interference, A Lei and the servants failed to stop Tao Ruisi, who vanished from sight within a minute.

"Useless! A bunch of useless men who can't even handle one woman!"

"Chase her! I don't care if she lives or dies!"

Chen Tianfang was so enraged he nearly lost control.

Despite their numbers, one woman had easily escaped and even managed to issue a threat before leaving.

If word got out, how could Chen Tianfang face anyone?

"Yes, sir!"

"After her!"

A Lei led the servants in pursuit of Tao Ruisi.

After witnessing a good fight and facing off against a beautiful opponent, Chen Haotian thought only of how much fun it had been.

As for the Chen family's honor and the assassin, he couldn't care less. He turned to leave, ready for a good night's sleep.

"Stop, Chen Haotian, stop right there!"

As Chen Haotian turned, a voice called out to him.

Looking back, he saw Chen Feiyu, who had been hiding during the battle and was now stepping forward.

"What is it? Do you need something?"

"Chen Haotian, where did you learn those skills?"

"What does it matter to you?"

Chen Haotian replied dismissively, thinking it was too late for Chen Feiyu to start caring about his abilities now.

Chen Haotian assumed Chen Feiyu feared his strength, but what he said next was a direct hit to his pride.

"Chen Haotian, I don't care how or when you learned those skills, but if you're so capable, why didn't you help when assassins attacked my father? Why did you let him nearly die and then let the killers escape? Tell me—did you bring the assassins here to kill my father and seize the Chen family's assets?"

"Hahaha…"

"The Chen family is nothing to me. Kill that old man? With my strength, it'd take me minutes. Why would I need assassins? Do you think so little of me?"

A direct blow!

Complete disdain!

This was a blatant insult and total humiliation.

Chen Tianfang nearly collapsed. How could he have such a rebellious son?

"Unfilial son!"

"Unfilial son!"

Chen Tianfang, furious, raised his hand to slap Chen Haotian in the face, determined to teach him a lesson.

But the slap never landed. Just as Chen Tianfang was about to strike, Chen Haotian raised his hand and caught his wrist.

"Let me go, you wretched son! Let me go now!"

Chen Tianfang struggled with all his might, but Chen Haotian remained calm, firmly holding his wrist.

"Chen Tianfang, are you an animal? You still want to hurt your own father?"

"Let him go now, or you'll regret it!"

Seeing this, Chen Feiyu quickly gathered his men, as if to warn Chen Haotian that if he didn't release his father, they wouldn't hesitate to intervene.

"I'll overlook this because you're still my father and forgive you this time."

"But I warn you—if you try anything else, I'll cut off your hands!"

With that, Chen Haotian forcefully shoved Chen Tianfang to the ground and walked away with a carefree attitude.
