"Chen Zheng, this is the world of ordinary people, not the martial arts world," Li Yitong's voice was like a warm winter sun, comforting and full of strength.

Hearing this, Chen Zheng's Sword Qi slowly dissipated, like the last rays of a sunset.

"I… I survived?" Zhong Jiang's heart filled with a mixture of surprise and fear. He remained prostrate on the ground, like an injured bird.

"Mobilize the power of the Li and Liu Families. Destroy him and his entire clan!" Chen Zheng's command was as cruel and resolute as a northern winter wind.

Zhong Jiang shuddered but still lacked the courage to speak. He knew that all he could do now was beg for his life.

"No, don't! Lily, I beg you, stop your brother! If Zhong Jiang is ruined, I'm finished! My life will be over!" Tears streamed down Huang Yingying's face like a bursting dam, her eyes filled with despair and pleading.

Yan Lili's voice was as piercingly cold as a winter wind. She glared at Huang Yingying and roared, "You've made your bed, now lie in it!" Her eyes filled with regret and anger. If she had never met this vile woman, how could she have ended up in this mess?

"A person who has done nothing but evil still expects to have a future? You can rot in prison!"

Li Yitong calmly took out her phone, her fingers dancing across the screen as she made a call. "I've made the arrangements," she said calmly. "They will be taken away soon."

Kneeling on the ground, tears tracing paths on her cheeks, Huang Yingying cried out, "It wasn't me, it was Zhong Jiang!"

Zhong Jiang, his face pale, struggled to deny it. "I didn't do it! It was you!"

Their accusations flew back and forth, a storm of denials sweeping through the room. Chen Zheng quietly watched them, as if all of this had nothing to do with him.

After Li Yitong hung up, she walked over to Chen Zheng. "It's been dealt with. They will be arrested. As for Dasheng Real Estate… it will go bankrupt immediately!"

"Hmm…" Chen Zheng's response was heavy, though he tried to hide the turmoil within.

He silently thanked fate for its favor, allowing him to arrive just in time to prevent a tragedy. The two people who had once hurt his family would now be going to jail because of Dasheng's bankruptcy. But they would be released in a few years, and his heart couldn't find true peace in that.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind. He recalled the evidence collection card he had obtained. He didn't know if the card would still work, but he decided to give it a try.

"Hope this works," Chen Zheng murmured, taking out the card and silently reciting the instructions to use it. The card immediately disintegrated, and a mysterious USB drive appeared in his hand.

Li Yitong saw it and asked, puzzled, "What's this?"

"This might be the key to the truth. We'll know once we find a computer," Chen Zheng said, a flicker of determination in his eyes.

"The truth? What truth?" Zhong Jiang and Huang Yingying stared, completely bewildered, as if lost in a fog.

A flicker of fear crossed Zhong Jiang's eyes, but he quickly composed himself.

Being a mansion, it was sure to have extraordinary computer equipment. Li Yitong scanned the spacious living room and quickly found a high-tech laptop.

She turned on the computer and inserted the USB drive. A series of video files appeared, promising to lead them to an unknown truth. Curious, Li Yitong clicked on a video, and the images on the screen made her heart race.

The person in the video was none other than Zhong Jiang. A vile expression twisted his face as a woman struggled beneath him, her cries for help piercing the air.

"Help! Zhong Jiang, you beast! You beast…"

"Hahaha… go ahead and scream. Even if you scream your throat raw, no one will answer! Hahaha…" Zhong Jiang's laughter was cold and cruel.

"This… this is impossible!" Zhong Jiang's face turned white as a sheet. He knew with horrifying clarity that these were his own monstrous acts.

Li Yitong weakly hit the stop button, unable to bear the brutal images. She opened another video. This time, it showed Zhong Jiang and his accomplices on a small boat with several heavy bags beside them.

Zhong Jiang's command echoed. "Throw them in. Let the water wash them clean!"

"Don't worry, Young Master Zhong, we'll do it cleanly," a deep voice assured him.

SPLASH. The sound of a heavy object plunging into the water shattered the silence.

"Impossible!" Zhong Jiang's eyes widened in horror. He didn't need to watch any more to know these were all his crimes. Evidence of him dumping bodies at sea! Who in their right mind would record something so revolting?

"Rape, murder, dumping a body… You belong in hell!" Li Yitong closed the video coldly. There were more recordings of his crimes, but she couldn't watch any more. A murderous glint flashed in her eyes.

"It's over… It's really over now…" Zhong Jiang stared helplessly into space, unable to comprehend how his atrocities had been so clearly recorded.

"Rape… murder…" Huang Yingying froze as if struck by lightning, her eyes filled with terror and disbelief. She couldn't believe she had been dating a demon for so long.

A cold sweat prickled her back as she became acutely aware of her own fate. She felt a profound sense of relief, thanking the heavens she had never provoked this man. Otherwise, she might have been the one to disappear from this world. But this realization did not lessen her fear.

As sirens began to wail in the distance, all the strength drained from Zhong Jiang's body. He collapsed to the floor, his face ashen.

A moment later, the wailing of police sirens outside the villa sounded like a mournful symphony as they faded into the distance.

Huang Yingying and Zhong Jiang had been taken away, their fates as uncertain as falling leaves. The mysterious USB drive hung over Zhong Jiang's head like a sword of Damocles, making his death sentence a certainty. As for Dasheng Real Estate, it too was caught in these invisible shackles, mired in a swamp from which it could not escape. As for Huang Yingying, her fate was like a small boat tossed in a storm. If she was found to be complicit in Zhong Jiang's crimes, she would not be spared.

"Let's go," Chen Zheng said softly, his voice as cool as a breeze as he watched the police cars disappear from sight.

The three of them returned to the garden villa.

"Lily, you must be hungry. It's my treat today, what would you like to eat?" Li Yitong's words were like a warm sunbeam, brightening Yan Lili's heart.

"Anything is fine! I'm not picky. Thank you, Sister Li!" Yan Lili replied, her eyes sparkling with gratitude.

"What about you, Chen Zheng?" Li Yitong asked again.

"I'm fine with anything," Chen Zheng said with a smile.
