Ye Luo had no chance to dodge at all. It wasn’t just that he had just fought a great battle and his True Qi was greatly depleted, but he was also seriously injured. Even at his pri and uninjured, facing this fearso palm strike, he might not have been able to withstand it at all.
Bang!
The next second, a muffled sound like thunder erupted, the palm strike hitting Ye Luo directly in the chest, sending him flying and crashing heavily onto the ground, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.
His face was deathly pale, his breathing extrely irregular, and it felt as if all his internal organs had suffered severe damage. The opponent’s palm strike was imnsely powerful, causing various degrees of injury to his ridians.
The Nine Yang True Qi inside his body beca uncontrollable, rising chaotically, and a pained expression appeared on his face.
Had it not been for the Gold Silk Soft Armor he was wearing, which absorbed so of the force, Ye Luo might have been killed or at least crippled by this palm strike.
Only then did the people present react, their eyes once more revealing a shocked expression, not expecting soone to attempt to assassinate Ye Luo at this ti.
Everyone’s gaze turned to the person who made the move, an elderly man exuding the imposing aura of soone at the Innate Peak Stage, radiating an extrely dominant presence, with a cold face and eyes flickering with a fierce killing intent fixed on Ye Luo.
"It’s you!"
Prostrate on the ground, hand clutching his chest, Ye Luo looked towards his attacker, instantly understanding why he had been targeted. For the person before him was indeed Shen Aohai, the elder from the Shen Family who had entered the Situ Family abode earlier.
It was highly likely that Shen Aohai attacked him over the matter concerning his grandson, Shen Yunlong.
"Boy, you broke hundreds of bones in my grandson’s body, turning him into a cripple confined to bed. How utterly vicious of you. I originally intended to let you live a few more days, but fate has not favored you, allowing to encounter you here. This ti, I will make you experience what’s worse than death, repaying all the agonies my grandson Yun Long has endured, back to you,"
Shen Aohai declared icily, his tone filled with a sharp murderous intent, as his gaze deathly fixed on Ye Luo.
Shen Aohai had been staying in the Shen Family to cultivate in seclusion but was suddenly inford by his eldest son, Shen Changfeng, that his grandchild, Shen Yunlong, had been beaten to the point of having all his bones broken, leaving him a cripple, which inevitably caused Shen Aohai to fly into a rage.
Originally, he wanted to seek revenge on Ye Luo imdiately. However, to save Shen Yunlong, he brought him to Capital City in hopes of getting Mu Qingsong, the patriarch of the Mu Family, to lend his aid.
But, unexpectedly, so coincidences are just too uncanny, and Shen Aohai had stumbled upon the very person who had hard his grandson.
Shen Aohai didn’t know Ye Luo at all but was aware that the person who hurt his grandson was a young man nad Ye Luo who had announced his na and origin from Zhonghai earlier in the hall.
At that, Shen Aohai knew that this was the person who had injured his grandchild. It was only due to the circumstances at the ti that it wasn’t convenient to take action, but he had been waiting until now, seizing the opportunity to make his move against Ye Luo. He hadn’t anticipated that Ye Luo’s ability to withstand a beating was so strong, and that eighty percent of his strength hadn’t been enough to kill him.
"Boy, it’s as if fate has decreed your death; today will be your funeral!"
Shen Aohai’s voice was frosty as he thundered, his eyes narrowing, ready to strike Ye Luo again and finish him off completely.
"Hold on!"
Just then, Situ Luoyun suddenly shouted, rushing forward to stand in front of Ye Luo.
"Ye Luo, how are you?"
At that mont, Qin Yuru and Ling Qingya both ran over, helping Ye Luo up with faces full of concern.
"I... I’m fine." Ye Luo coughed a few tis and shook his head, but his whole complexion was very poor, and the injuries inside his body left him unable to move on his own.
"Miss Situ, what are you doing?"
Shen Aohai’s eyes focused on Situ Luoyun as he spoke.
"Elder Shen, although there is enmity between Ye Luo and your grandson, I understand your desire for revenge. However, today is my grandfather’s birthday celebration, and it’s not appropriate for you to seek personal vengeance here," Situ Luoyun said sternly, her gaze fixed on Shen Aohai.
"This..." Shen Aohai’s eyes hardened, his gaze flickering over to Ye Luo before turning to Situ Liuyun and saying:
"Elder Situ, I know today is the day of your birthday celebration and that such behavior isn’t fitting. However, Ye Luo is the enemy of my Shen Family; my grandson’s life was ruined by him. If I don’t take my revenge today, what face would Shen Aohai have left to live in this world, or to face the mbers of my Shen Family?"
Shen Aohai spoke with a face full of sorrowful anger, and finally choked out, "I ask that Elder Situ grant this wish to settle the score with this young man. Afterwards, I will certainly bring the mbers of the Shen Family to apologize in person."
"This..." Hearing Shen Aohai’s words, Situ Liuyun’s expression beca slightly tense, showing so hesitation.
"Grandfather, you can’t do this. After all, Ye Luo has presented a Revitalizing Pill as a significant gift, and he is also considered a guest of our Situ Family. We can’t just ignore this," Situ Luoyun hastily said to her grandfather.
"Luoyun, what are you talking about? First, this Ye Luo deceived my Aohai, then he killed five Innate Experts of our Situ Family, and even threatened to poison Aohai to coerce him."
"Now he has seriously injured Wen Tian as well. We have not held these things against him, all because of the face given to the Revitalizing Pill; otherwise, he would definitely not be able to leave the Situ Family alive today."
Situ Yunchao said with a cold face, radiating imnse authority, "Therefore, we will not interfere in this matter. And after all, it is a private grudge between Elder Shen and him; let them resolve it themselves."
With a wave of his hand from Situ Yunchao, two of the Situ Family’s experts rushed forward, forcibly pulling Situ Luoyun away, while Situ Wentian was also helped to one side.
"That’s not right, how can you do this?" Situ Luoyun said angrily, suddenly erupting with a powerful aura. The strength of the Innate Realm Early Phase burst out, instantly breaking free from the control of the two Situ Family experts.
"Who would have thought that after spending so ti in Zhonghai, your strength has improved so quickly, almost breaking through to the Innate Middle Stage," Situ Yunchao said, his eyes flashing with surprise as he glanced at Situ Luoyun, a hint of murderous intent deep in the corners of his eyes.
"As long as I’m here today, no one will harm Ye Luo," Situ Luoyun declared with an icy voice.
Whoosh!
The next second, Situ Yunchao’s figure shimred, and he appeared in front of Situ Luoyun. With a wave of his hand, he knocked Situ Luoyun unconscious before she could even react.
