Ant?
A cultivator at the Foundation Establishnt Stage, mastering the top-tier Demon Technique Soul-controlling Technique, and possessing the Devilish mory—Ye Fei.
Who dares call him an ant?
Ye Fei took a step forward, and instantly, a strong wind swept through the courtyard, lifting all the leaves into the air, swirling around him with Ye Fei at the eye of the storm.
Tap, tap!
"What if it's big shots?"
Tap, tap!
"What if it's Bi Jie and the others?"
Tap, tap!
"What if it's everyone in this world?"
With each step Ye Fei took, the wind around him grew fiercer, as if at that mont he was an omnipotent god controlling the heavens and earth.
"If Bi Jie and the others truly co for , I'll cut them down with one sword! From the day I embarked on this path, there has been no one in this world that I fear!"
Thud!
Wu Xia, hearing Ye Fei's words and witnessing the sudden and strange phenonon, fell backward onto the ground, cold sweat dripping from her forehead.
Ye Fei saw this, took a deep breath, then turned and walked away.
The leaves returned to the ground.
Wu Xia regained her composure and sighed softly, muttering to herself, "Ye Fei, I don't know what you've been through, but your arrogance will inevitably bring about your downfall."
Leaving the house he had lived in for four years.
And recalling the scene that had just unfolded, Ye Fei let out a deep breath as he walked down the street.
"Seems I've truly been influenced by the Demon Evil! Even my temper has turned more violent! This suffocating frustration in my chest is likely due to the ntal discord that cultivators face when their minds cannot find clarity!"
Speaking to himself, Ye Fei couldn't help but laugh bitterly.
Cultivators emphasize following their hearts and living with recklessness.
In essence, it's freedom!
But freedom requires imnse power as its foundation, and with a ten-year limit hanging over him, Ye Fei knew he wouldn't achieve ntal clarity in the short term.
Screech!
A BMW ca to a sudden stop beside Ye Fei, and a middle-aged man stepped out and asked respectfully, "Excuse , are you Ye Fei, Mr. Ye?"
"It's you?"
Ye Fei frowned slightly, recognizing the man before him.
The man was none other than Hee Ming, the president of the Fla Dragon Association who had been with Liu Shan at the Azure Sea and Blue Sky Grand Hotel last ti!
"It seems Mr. Ye still rembers . I have a request to make; could Mr. Ye kindly follow back to my residence?" Hee Ming said courteously.
But Ye Fei was not soone to be summoned so easily by a re underground faction leader.
Without a second thought, he prepared to refuse.
"Mr. Ye, please don't reject outright. This matter involves the Black Tiger Hall!" Hee Ming quickly spoke as he saw impatience in Ye Fei's eyes.
At these words, Ye Fei was montarily stunned.
But he quickly understood.
The Hall Master of Black Tiger Hall, Bai Que, had already publicly declared that the hall would hunt Ye Fei throughout the city.
As Hee Ming was the president of the Fla Dragon Association and a sworn nesis of the Black Tiger Hall, it was impossible for him not to know about this.
Although the Black Tiger Hall had yet to trouble Ye Fei personally, he had no interest in dealing with them. However, given his restless mood today, Ye Fei couldn't help but laugh aloud.
"Troubling the Black Tiger Hall, is it? That might be a fine way to vent so frustration! Lead the way!"
With that, Ye Fei got into Hee Ming's car without hesitation...
Fla Dragon Association headquarters.
Hee Ming respectfully ushered Ye Fei into the main hall and imdiately ordered his n to serve refreshnts.
Ye Fei waved dismissively and said, "Just get to the point, I don't have the patience for formalities!"
"Very well!"
Hee Ming glanced around, prompting everyone to tactfully vacate the hall.
Once alone, Hee Ming spoke, "I believe Mr. Ye is well aware that my Fla Dragon Association and Black Tiger Hall are mortal enemies?"
"I've heard a little." Ye Fei nodded.
"Here's the situation: In terms of manpower and financial resources, our Fla Dragon Association has always been evenly matched with Black Tiger Hall, ensuring that the underground forces of Yuntai remain equally balanced. However, recently Black Tiger Hall has recruited a formidable master, causing heavy casualties among my n. This one person alone has razed three to four of my association's branches!" Hee Ming said bitterly.
One person razing three to four branches?
Ye Fei chuckled at the remark, amused.
Although unfamiliar with underground forces, he knew that a branch of the Fla Dragon Association must have at least several hundred mbers.
Soone capable of single-handedly wiping out three to four branches was no ordinary man—could it be a martial artist like Liu Shan?
"Why don't you ask Liu Shan for help instead of ?" Ye Fei asked with a hint of mockery.
"Brother Shan belongs to the Guo Family, and we in Yuntai follow an unspoken rule: major factions shall not interfere in each other's disputes. Hence, I had no choice but to co to you. After all, Brother Shan has said your skills far surpass his!"
Hee Ming responded with a forced smile.
Ye Fei scoffed internally.
Though Hee Ming's tone seed sincere, Ye Fei could sense his perfunctory attitude. It was clear that Hee Ming was desperate and considered Ye Fei nothing more than a last resort, without any real hope he could defeat Black Tiger Hall's powerful expert.
Otherwise, why would he invite Ye Fei without ntioning compensation?
"One condition!" Ye Fei said after pondering briefly.
"Please state it!" Hee Ming said eagerly.
Ye Fei tossed a note to Hee Ming and said, "Collect the herbs listed on this list for ."
"Herbs?"
Hee Ming scanned the list briefly, then grinned broadly.
Others might demand tens or even millions of dollars in compensation, but Ye Fei rely wanted herbs—how easy could this get?
"You can rest assured, Mr. Ye. If you assist in tonight's battle, I'll personally see to it that these herbs are delivered to you!"
"Alright!"
Ye Fei nodded, though his heart held so reservations.
Hee Ming clearly hadn't realized how precious these herbs truly were; even Master Ma, with all his wealth, had failed to acquire them all.
But given the Fla Dragon Association's network as an underground force, it likely had more connections than Master Ma. How Hee Ming acquired the herbs, or at what cost, was beyond Ye Fei's concern.
Having made his promise, Ye Fei saw no problem in erasing the Fla Dragon Association from Yuntai if Hee Ming were to break his word.
Hee Ming, seeing Ye Fei's agreent, was naturally delighted, thinking he had gotten a great bargain.
"Mr. Ye truly shows great generosity! On behalf of the Fla Dragon Association, I extend my deepest thanks!"
Laughing, Hee Ming added, "Mr. Ye, please wait a mont; another great master will join us soon. You're both martial artists, so I'm sure you'll have much in common!"
Another expert?
Ye Fei raised an eyebrow but said nothing, leisurely sitting back.
Before long.
Sounds of commotion arose from outside, and Hee Ming stood up to greet the newcor.
Soon, a burly man with a tiger-like physique and a fierce, intimidating face entered—a man clearly not to be trifled with.
Hee Ming quickly led the man to Ye Fei and said, "Mr. Ye, this is Master Zhou Tian, a prominent figure in Yuntai Martial Arts World. Please get acquainted!"
"Acquainted?"
Zhou Tian glanced at Ye Fei and sneered, "A brat like this is worthy of eting ? Don't be ridiculous!"
