Ye Tianfan snorted coldly and said, "Your son kidnapped a woman at Kyoto University. You better call him now and pray that he hasn't done anything to her yet! Otherwise, I'll kill him myself and make your entire Li Group disappear from Jiangzhou City!"

As soon as Ye Tianfan finished speaking, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in Li Wenxiong's eyes. From being a penniless street thug to fighting his way to becoming the Chairman of the Li Group, Li Wenxiong had walked a bloody path. Although years of experience taught him when to advance and retreat, he was not someone to be easily intimidated! Ye Tianfan's blatant threat made Li Wenxiong instantly furious.

"Make the Li Family disappear? Do you have the capability?"

Li Wenxiong's cold eyes slowly lifted to face Ye Tianfan.

"What do you think?"

Ye Tianfan locked eyes with Li Wenxiong, and their gazes met. Ye Tianfan's eyes were filled with murderous intent, sending a jolt of shock through the experienced Li Wenxiong!

The Li Group had stood in Jiangzhou City for decades, thanks to Li Wenxiong's leadership. He had seen all sorts of situations, whether assassins, mercenaries, or desperadoes who only cared about money. But when he looked into Ye Tianfan's eyes, he felt an immense pressure!

Unlike those assassins and mercenaries, the pressure from Ye Tianfan's gaze struck from the depths of the soul!

This shocking gaze was enough to make the seasoned Li Wenxiong feel fear! Anger initially filled his eyes, quickly passed by a streak of fear, but he quickly calmed down.

Li Wenxiong's inadvertently revealed fear, though fleeting, did not escape Ye Tianfan's eyes.

Ye Tianfan let out a cold snort, saying, "Why don't we bet on Li Zexi's life? The only question is whether you dare to bet with me!"

Ye Tianfan raised an eyebrow, his murderous intent suddenly emerging, and the temperature in the room dropped to freezing in an instant.

"Crack!"

Ye Tianfan took a slight step forward, and the floor tile beneath him instantly cracked.

Two steps...

"Crack..."

Three steps...

Ye Tianfan reached Li Wenxiong's desk, gently slapping it with his hand.

"Bang!... Rumble... Crack..."

The thick mahogany desk instantly shattered; the wind swept through, filling the office with wooden debris!

Seeing all this, Li Wenxiong's face changed drastically. Although he had guessed Ye Tianfan's skills were extraordinary, he hadn't expected them to be terrifying to this extent. He couldn't hide the shock in his eyes any longer.

Previously, when visiting the Jiangnan Xie Family, Li Wenxiong had witnessed their unique skill, the Shadowless Palm. Although the power was considerable, it still paled compared to Ye Tianfan in front of him.

Li Wenxiong asked, "Who exactly are you?"

"Someone who can take your son's life in an instant." Saying this, Ye Tianfan turned, ready to leave, and said, "Want to bet? See if your Li Family's bodyguards can protect your son's life!"

"Wait!"

Li Wenxiong exclaimed in shock, hurriedly raising his hand to stop Ye Tianfan from leaving the office. He now fully understood that with Ye Tianfan's power, killing Li Zexi was just a matter of a moment. If he truly intended to act, his son wouldn't live to see the next sunrise.

"What? You don't dare to bet?" Ye Tianfan raised an eyebrow, looking at Li Wenxiong.

Of course, Li Wenxiong didn't dare to bet. Li Zexi was his only precious son!

"I'll call my son right away and have him come back."

Li Wenxiong quickly dialed Li Zexi's number and started scolding, "Bastard, did you kidnap a woman?"

Li Zexi's voice came through the phone, "Just a chick from Kyoto University. Once I'm done playing, I'll send her back. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Li Zexi, relying on the Li Family's background, was already used to being arrogant. This wasn't the first time. Although Li Wenxiong was aware of such things previously, he often turned a blind eye. After all, he had only one son. As long as it didn't result in a death, he let it slide, at most paying some money as compensation.

But this time was different!

Ye Tianfan had already come knocking at their door, yet Li Zexi remained oblivious to the danger! Li Wenxiong was both anxious and angry, shouting, "You fool! Are you trying to ruin our Li Family? Get back here immediately with that woman!"

Faced with Li Wenxiong's reprimand, Li Zexi was taken aback and asked, "Dad, did something happen?"

"Did you touch that woman?"

"My men just brought her to the hotel, but I haven't had the chance yet..."

Hearing this, Li Wenxiong sighed in relief internally and then scolded, "Right now, immediately, bring her back to the company! If she loses a single hair, you... you... you'll get out of the Li Family!"

With that, Li Wenxiong hung up the phone, looked at Ye Tianfan, and said, "This time, it's my son's lack of understanding. If he's offended you in any way, I hope you can be lenient. I, Mr. Li, apologize on his behalf and assure you there won't be a next time!"

Ye Tianfan snorted coldly, asking, "What assurance can you give?"

"Don't worry, I'll make sure to discipline him strictly!" Li Wenxiong said with an apologetic smile, "This time, it's my son's fault. Mr. Ye, give him a chance, will you? After all, he's still young and naive."

Having been in the business world for years, Li Wenxiong had already developed the skill of bending and yielding as needed. Even though anger burned in his heart and his eyes filled with rage, he could still maintain his composure, smiling and repeatedly apologizing.

Yet, Ye Tianfan, who had never dealt with Jiangzhou Business Realm, was unaware that in the Jiangzhou City business circles, Li Wenxiong was known as the smiling tiger, infamous for his ruthless tactics. The Li Family's notorious reputation for using any means to achieve their goals was well-known, explaining why Li Zexi would dare to abduct someone in broad daylight at Kyoto University.

Just as Li Wenxiong was busy apologizing, the conference room door suddenly swung open, and in walked the portly Li Zexi, still unaware of the situation. He began, "Dad, this isn't my fault! That woman just wouldn't listen to reason! I pursued her for two years, she..."

"Smack!" Before Li Zexi could finish, Li Wenxiong slapped him hard, angrily shouting, "You beast! Are you trying to destroy our Li Family?"

Having walked in and been slapped without even finishing his sentence, Li Zexi was utterly bewildered and filled with anger. Looking up, he happened to see Ye Tianfan standing in the office, and he immediately shouted, "Ye Tianfan! So it's you ruining my plans again! I'm going to kill you today!"

As he spoke, Li Zexi's bodyguard carrying Su Yueyi also walked in. Upon seeing Ye Tianfan, his pupils suddenly contracted!
