Chapter 326 Hotel Attacked_1

Cough cough!

Situ Ao lay prostrate on the ground, coughing violently, trying to vomit out the pill, but it was of no use.

"Don’t waste your effort, this poison won’t activate for another two months. As long as I’m fine by then, I’ll naturally give you the antidote, so it’s best not to have any other ideas about me, otherwise, we both die together,"

Ye Luo said indifferently.

"You’re ruthless!"

Situ Ao glared at Ye Luo with a dark expression, then got up and quickly left the villa, clutching his chest.

"You do have a trick up your sleeve," Situ Luoyun said, her lips curling into a seductive smile as she looked at Ye Luo.

"It’s a lesson for him," Ye Luo said casually.

"How did you end up here?" Ye Luo’s gaze shifted to Situ Luoyun.

"I received news that Situ Ao got a green gemstone, the king of emeralds, from a young man, so I came specially to take a look. Now it seems that you are the owner of this emerald,"

Situ Luoyun said, her eyes fixed on Ye Luo.

"That’s right," Ye Luo nodded and then said, "Okay, it’s getting late, I should head back now."

"Wait, do you have time tomorrow?" Situ Luoyun’s gaze remained on Ye Luo.

"Is something the matter?" Ye Luo asked.

"Tomorrow is my grandfather’s birthday, the former Clan Leader of the Situ Family. I want to invite you to attend," Situ Luoyun said to Ye Luo.

"Inviting me?" Ye Luo looked surprised and said, "I’ve just killed several Innate Experts of your Situ Family and even poisoned Situ Ao. It may not be wise for me to go."

"Don’t worry, I will handle these matters. I believe that Situ Ao, having been poisoned by you, wouldn’t dare to speak out about tonight’s affairs. Moreover, if the elixir you gave me last time really works, I am sure my grandfather will like you very much at that time. As long as you have my grandfather’s approval, no one in the Situ Family will dare to trouble you,"

Situ Luoyun said, her eyes gleaming with sharpness.

"Well then, since Miss Situ invites, I shall comply respectfully," Ye Luo said with a smile on his face.

Afterward, Ye Luo and Xue Tu left the place. After instructing Xue Tu to return home, Ye Luo went back to the Kyoto Grand Hotel.

Returning to his room, Ling Qingya was waiting inside. Seeing Ye Luo return, she abruptly stood up, her expression slightly relaxed, and her gaze sparkling.

"You’ve returned," Ling Qingya said after a moment of silence.

"Yes, have you not slept yet, were you waiting for me?" Ye Luo walked over, his gaze steady on Ling Qingya.

"I..." Ling Qingya didn’t know how to explain.

"Miss Shi and President Qin are very worried about you, so you should give them a call back. I’ll be leaving now," Ling Qingya said as she was about to leave.

However, at that moment, Ye Luo reached out and pulled Ling Qingya to him, embracing her head and kissing her again.

"Mmm..." Ling Qingya’s eyes widened in shock, as he had forced a kiss on her again. What did he take her for? At this moment, a hint of resentment arose in Ling Qingya’s heart. She stomped hard on Ye Luo’s foot, and Ye Luo, in pain, let her go.

"You..."

"Don’t speak, cover your mouth." Ye Luo held his breath and instructed Ling Qingya, covering her mouth and nose with one hand, while pointing at the room door with the other.

Unbeknownst to them, a thin tube had been slipped under the door, emitting streams of white smoke into the room.

Ling Qingya’s face changed at the sight, and she glanced at Ye Luo.

"It’s a blinding smoke, be careful, cover your nose and mouth, and hide by the bed," whispered Ye Luo, his eyes glowing as he activated his Clairvoyant Eye. In an instant, he could see a group of figures armed with weapons standing outside the room—there were as many as fifty or sixty of them, including several Innate Experts.

A few seconds later, the door burst open, and a flurry of Silver Needles shot out from inside the room.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

In an instant, four or five figures lay on the ground.

Swish! Swish! Swish!...

A series of arrows shot fiercely from outside the room, Ye Luo dodged swiftly, the arrowheads glinting ominously—they were clearly poisoned arrows that stuck into the walls and floor of the room.

A group of Hei Yi men, wielding crossbow arrows, rushed in, followed by another group brandishing sabers, trained and coordinated. At the back were several Innate Experts.

Ye Luo leapt out again, a cyclone kick sweeping through, knocking down the group at the forefront before they could even fire their arrows.

Ha!

The saber-wielding shadows immediately launched a barrage of slashes towards Ye Luo from all directions.

Ye Luo pivoted, landing a heavy punch, sending one figure flying and toppling those behind him. With a flurry of punches, he sent the remainder soaring through the air.

Boom!

Just then, Ye Luo sensed a terrifying presence enveloping him. His face turned grim, and without time to dodge, he swung his fists fiercely in response.

A roaring sound ensued, and Ye Luo was driven back four or five steps, shattering the floorboards with the sheer force of the impact.

Ye Luo fixed his gaze and saw a giant of a man, almost two meters tall, built like a black bear with a burly figure and a full beard, exuding an intimidating aura of power.

Another figure entered the room, a thin man as slight as a monkey, resembling a utility pole, casually flicking a small knife over his nails, his face showing a taunting smile as he looked at Ye Luo, "Not bad martial arts, huh?"

"Who are you? What do you want?" Ye Luo snorted coldly, assessing who these assailants could be.

"Someone sent us to kill you!" the skinny man mocked with a sneer.

"Who?" Ye Luo’s eyes narrowed, a sharp light flashing through them.

"You don’t need to know that, but you should have a piece of emerald on you, hand it over, and we might let you die a painless death," he sneered.

Ye Luo’s expression tightened slightly, his eyes flashing coldly as a disdainful smile appeared on his lips, "You think just the two of you can give me a painless death? I think it’s more likely that I’ll be the one to end you quickly."

"Ignorant fool!" the skinny man scoffed. "Xiong Bear, kill him."

"Roar!"

With that, the bear-like man charged, his massive body moving with surprising speed. His enormous fists aimed a fierce blow at Ye Luo.

Bang!

Ye Luo took a small step back with his right foot, channeled the Nine Yang Mystic Art, Nine Yang True Qi flowing through his palms, and threw a punch to meet the oncoming gigantic fist. Suddenly, Ye Luo felt an overwhelming force surging at him like a burst dam.
