"I’m leaving now." Zhu Hong gestured to Chen Quan beside him and began to walk out of the church. As he passed by Ling Chen, he paused, looked ahead, and said, "It’s time we settle the score between us. Don’t you think?"

Ling Chen nodded with a smile, "You’re right, I think so too."

"I’ll give you two months to prepare and arrange your affairs. I’ll contact you then."

"No problem!"

Once Zhu Hong was gone, Ling Chen turned his gaze toward Nanrong Wanqing and walked over. Seeing him approaching, Yang He’s expression sank, and he coldly shouted, "What are you all standing around for? Stop him!"

Upon hearing Yang He’s command, several security personnel immediately raised their guns, aiming at Ling Chen’s back, and shouted loudly, "Don’t move!"

However, Ling Chen ignored their presence and continued walking toward Nanrong Wanqing. Seeing this, Yang He gritted his teeth, and his eyes suddenly became fierce. "Shoot him, kill him!"

However, just as those security personnel were about to pull the trigger, a sudden sound of arrows cutting through the air came from the church entrance. Subsequently, several security members fell to the ground with sharp arrows lodged in their backs.

This unexpected turn of events startled everyone present. "Put down your guns, or don’t blame my bullets for not knowing the target." At this moment, Beison rushed in with several subordinates, each holding a submachine gun. With one round, the security inside would be finished.

"Ling Chen!" Yang He yelled in fury, "This place is full of my men. I don’t believe you can escape."

"Your men?" Ling Chen smirked coldly, "Then call them, let’s see how many you can summon."

"I..." Yang He opened his mouth, ready to speak, but then saw Qiu Yong and his group coming in from outside, saying, "Sixth Brother, the men outside have all been dealt with by our brothers."

Ling Chen nodded and pointed to Nanrong Wanqing, "Big Brother, help me take her out."

"Alright." Qiu Yong agreed, quickly walking to Nanrong Wanqing, grabbing her arm. She immediately struggled upon seeing this, "Let go of me, what are you doing?" However, her strength was no match for Qiu Yong. Soon, she was forcibly dragged out of the church by Qiu Yong and his people.

After Nanrong Wanqing was taken away, Ling Chen glanced at the guests in the church and said, "This is our private matter. It’s best for those not involved to leave immediately, otherwise I can’t guarantee your safety."

Upon hearing this, the guests dared not linger and quickly hurried out. In an instant, only about twenty people remained inside the vast church. "Ling Chen!" Yang He was shaking with rage, grinding his teeth, "You..."

"Shut your mouth," Ling Chen said softly, "I don’t want to waste words with you. I warned you before not to harbor illusions, but you didn’t listen and persisted in your mistakes. If you had let go earlier, none of this would have happened." Saying this, he turned his gaze to Jiang Yue’e beside him, "And you, I know you orchestrated all these events. In your eyes, Yang He is just a pawn. I just don’t understand why you would forcefully arrange Nanrong Wanqing’s life. As a mother, everything you do seems for her good, but in fact, you are harming her."

Jiang Yue’e replied coldly, "What I do is none of your business."

"Sorry! As long as it concerns Wanqing, I won’t stand idly by." With that, Ling Chen turned his gaze to Nanrong Yong, who seemed dazed, standing there as if he had lost consciousness.

"What did you do to him?"

"That’s not something you need to know."

Ling Chen shook his head, "At this point, are you still unwilling to see the truth? Forget it! You are, after all, Wanqing’s mother, and I don’t wish to harm you. What you have done will naturally be punished by others. I came here today not just to rescue Wanqing but also for one other reason: I want to have a good chat with you."

"I don’t think there’s anything for us to talk about," Jiang Yue’e replied indifferently.

"I have long wondered why the Jiang family faced extermination. It wasn’t until later that I discovered the reason. You undoubtedly know about the existence of the ’Soul Stone’, right? You may not understand ’Soul Stone’; it’s a kind of dark green stone. I suppose you are familiar with it."

"Soul Stone..." Jiang Yue’e murmured, seemingly recalling something, her complexion finally showing a change.

"How... how do you know about that?"

"Why can’t I know about it," Ling Chen responded coolly, "I am very curious about how you came to possess it."

At this moment, Jiang Yue’e seemed to gather herself, speaking coldly, "I don’t understand what you’re talking about."

"Miss Jiang, I just want to know the origin of the Soul Stone; apart from that, I have no interest in anything else." Ling Chen paused before continuing, "Let me remind you, I’m not asking for your permission. If you refuse to speak, then I’ll have to employ other means."

"Hmph!" Jiang Yue’e scoffed, "Do you think you can torture me? If you think I am scared, you are gravely mistaken."

"Rest assured, I am not as ruthless as you. Compared to torture, I have better methods." Saying this, Ling Chen checked his phone briefly and said, "You have ten minutes to consider. Once the time is up, I won’t give you another chance."

Having spoken, he walked aside, found a seat, and patiently waited.

Seeing Ling Chen’s calm demeanor, Jiang Yue’e’s brows furrowed slightly, and she felt a sense of unease. The more confident he was, the less assurance she felt.

At this time, a pair of middle-aged couples stood up not far away and asked solemnly, "Can we leave now?"

Ling Chen glanced at them and smirked, "If I remember correctly, you two are Yang He’s parents. I apologize for letting you lose face in front of so many guests. But if you had listened to my warnings earlier, none of this would have happened. As parents, you hope for the well-being of your child. For your sake, I won’t make it hard for you today. However, you must promise me never to appear in front of Wanqing again. Otherwise, if I find out, I will have no mercy. I believe you’ve noticed, anything I intend to do, I achieve."

The middle-aged couple hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Alright, I agree, as long as you promise not to trouble my son in the future."

Hearing this, Yang He became anxious and quickly said, "Dad, you can’t listen to him, Wanqing is my..."
