My Wife, The Ice Queen President-Chapter 494 - 0492: Qi Transformation Realm (Two Updates)_1
Chapter 494: Chapter 0492: Qi Transformation Realm (Two Updates)_1
After getting through to Long Zaitian on the phone, Ye Xiong briefly explained the situation.
“The system over there is a bit special,” Long Zaitian said.
“I’m not going to surrender without a fight. If you can’t handle it, I’ll have to break out on my own,” Ye Xiong said.
“Why are you being so impulsive? I said the system is different, not that it can’t be done.”
Long Zaitian really had no words for his bullheadedness: “As long as you didn’t kill anyone, there shouldn’t be a problem. Just wait a second, and don’t do anything rash.”
Ye Xiong hung up the phone.
A moment later, the officer’s phone rang.
He hesitated, then pulled out his phone, and upon seeing the number that appeared, he immediately became serious.
“Director Luo, yes, yes, I am coming back right away.”
After hanging up, the officer said to Wang Jiang with difficulty, “President Wang, I apologize, but we have orders from above. We need to return now.”
“What about the suspect? We’re not arresting him?” Wang Jiang asked anxiously.
“The higher-ups said he has a special identity and can’t be arrested.”
After saying this, the officer left with a few of his subordinates, looking embarrassed.
Everyone around was shocked, looking at Ye Xiong with newfound awe.

With just one phone call, the previously assertive officer had to leave with his tail between his legs, having been kicked without showing the slightest bit of temper – what did this signify about the reputation and power of the young man before them?
Wang Jiang’s face was livid; he was very unwilling to let it go.
Grinding his teeth, he took out his phone to call a deputy director he had bribed.
But very quickly, his face turned even uglier.
The deputy director said that a chief leader of the special zone had personally ordered the release, and not just the officer from before – even if the deputy director himself came, he wouldn’t dare to arrest the individual.
Seeing the expression on Wang Jiang’s face, as if he had swallowed a fly and couldn’t spit it out, Ye Xiong sneered, “Wang Jiang, you don’t seem that old, having another child shouldn’t be a problem. Just consider Wang Guo dead. However, I advise you to teach the next one better, do not raise another animal. Otherwise, if someone cripples him again, when you’re getting on in years, you won’t be able to have any more kids.”
It was a slap in the face that went beyond merely stinging.
Wang Jiang’s old face was flushed like pig’s blood, so furious he almost had a heart attack.
Unable to fight back or rely on a more influential backer, the frustration he felt was truly worse than swallowing a fly.
It was conceivable that starting from tomorrow, his reputation would be in tatters, and soon the story would spread: the young heir of Wanji Company offended someone untouchable and was rendered utterly useless. Wang Jiang could only watch as that person walked away, too fearful to even fart.
“What are you standing around for? Do you want me to invite you for tea?” Ye Xiong asked coldly.
The hundreds of gang members below looked at each other, all at a loss.
The gang leader Li Guang looked at Wang Jiang and asked with his eyes what to do next.
Wang Jiang forcefully waved his hand and turned to leave the hotel.
With their boss gone, these gang members knew even better not to mess with the man in front of them, and they scattered like birds. In just a moment, the crowded hall was empty, not a single one left.
“Let’s go, let’s have breakfast.”
Ye Xiong took Yang Xinyi’s hand, greeted his companions below, and headed for the hotel’s grand hall.
Xia Qiqi could no longer simply describe her inner turmoil as shock watching him walk away.
Wang Guo had been crippled, and Wang Jiang didn’t dare to utter a sound of protest.
Police had come to arrest someone but were called back with just one phone call.
All signs pointed to her foolish brother having an extraordinary identity, which complicated her feelings even more.
She stood there, unsure whether to follow or not.
If she went, she would be the only stranger among familiar faces; if she didn’t, she felt a desire to join them, if only to have a conversation with him.
Ye Xiong looked back, saw her still hesitating, and called out, “Xia Qiqi, what are you dawdling for? Aren’t you hungry?”
“I…”
“What ‘I’? Let’s talk after you’ve eaten.”
Having no choice but to follow the imperious man, Xia Qiqi trailed behind Chen Xiao Zhuque to have breakfast.
A party of seven people went to the hotel for breakfast, chatting and laughing.
Ye Xiong’s recovery naturally made everyone happy.
After breakfast, Ye Xiong pulled Murong Ruyin aside.
“Did you perform the Sealing Secret Technique on me at the beginning?” Ye Xiong asked.
“Your situation was critical, and I had to do it,” Murong Ruyin replied.
“I’ve heard that among the Nine Acupoint Divine Needles, the Sealing Secret Technique can aid in Inner Strength Cultivation. Is that true?” Ye Xiong continued to ask.
Initially, he promised to take care of Murong Ruyin for Murong Feng to obtain the latter part of the Nine Acupoint Divine Needles. Later, he got the Sealing Secret Technique from Murong Ruyin, but he had never been able to learn it.
This time, having cheated death, not only did he recover normally, he had also unintentionally made a breakthrough to the highly-desired Qi Transformation Realm, which seemed like a dream. He just couldn’t understand, how had he suddenly made this breakthrough?
“The Sealing Secret Technique seals the consciousness of the body, leaving it without consciousness and allowing the Inner Strength to wander at will, reaching that freely flowing realm. It’s a very miraculous realm. I don’t understand it myself. According to the Sealing Secret Technique, practicing in this way is like a method of resurrection from a desperate situation. It’s extremely dangerous. It might have been that you inadvertently obtained such a fortuitous opportunity that allowed you to make a breakthrough,” Murong Siyu explained.
Ye Xiong picked up a cup and placed it in the centre of his palm, activating the Inner Strength in his body.
Suddenly, a surge of Inner Strength within his palm turned into Qi Gang, lifting the cup into the air a few feet above his palm. From a distance, it looked just like magic.
The Qi Transformation Realm, where Inner Strength leaves the body.
This feeling was truly like a dream.
With a thought, Ye Xiong set the cup down, reached into his bosom, took out a Silver Needle, hovered it in mid-air with his Inner Strength, and then gave a light grunt.
Under the drive of Inner Strength, the Silver Needle shot out with a whistling sound, deeply embedding itself in the table.
This astonishing maneuver lit up Murong Ruyin’s eyes.
“The Qi Transformation Realm combined with Silver Needle, that’s simply a sure-kill technique. Now if anyone wants to deal with you, numbers won’t be an advantage.”
“Thank you. If it wasn’t for you, I would have died long ago and wouldn’t have had such a chance,” Ye Xiong said.
“Just stop suspecting me to be a traitor,” Murong Ruyin snorted.
“Petty,” Ye Xiong teased.
“Who’s petty? You were the one who suspected me before.”
“Sorry for what happened before.”
Women, ninety percent of them are petty. They seem to not care about things on the surface, but in reality, they care more than anyone else.
Thinking of Duanmu Linglong, Ye Xiong sighed deeply.
“I didn’t expect Linglong to be the traitor; I really was blind.”
“Not just Linglong, but also Thirteen.”
“Thirteen?” Ye Xiong was startled.
He was unaware of Thirteen’s situation.
Murong Ruyin then recounted how Thirteen betrayed them, and later in order to save him and He Mengji, was killed by the Poison Lady Guo Furong.
After hearing the story, Ye Xiong remained silent for a long time.
He had not expected that so much had happened after he had lost consciousness.
He Mengji must be very upset, right?
Thinking this, Ye Xiong was even more eager to get back.
Back among the crowd, Ye Xiong cautioned Phoenix and Chen Xiao not to speak of his Inner Strength breakthrough, to keep a bit of an edge for themselves.
With his current strength, even without transforming, he would be able to fight Long Tianya.
Having an extra trump card was a good thing for himself.
During the meal, Xia Qiqi had been silent the whole time.
Ye Xiong’s gaze landed on her, and he said, “Xia Qiqi, come over, I have something to tell you.”
He walked towards the sofa in the hall where no one else was.
Xia Qiqi’s body trembled slightly, following behind him.
Feeling uneasy, she wondered what Ye Xiong wanted to talk to her about.
