A tranquil mountain village, shrouded in mist at dawn.
In the distance, as the morning light breaks, makes Qing Shan Village appear exceptionally beautiful.
As usual, Wang Hu woke up early to practice martial arts, while Ye Qiu sat cross-legged on the grindstone, circulating Zhou Tian.
An hour later, Wang Hu finished his practice, and Ye Qiu also stopped his movents, slowly opening his eyes.
These past few days, the transformation in Wang Hu’s physique has been extrely noticeable; his skin is turning bronze, and all the excess flesh on his body has disappeared, leaving only robust muscles.
Now whenever Wang Hu casually throws a punch, it causes the air to vibrate. Although it’s not quite at the level of a sonic boom, it’s not far off.
"Senior, it seems like soone was singing outside last night, did you hear it?" Wang Hu ca over, rembering the singing he vaguely heard last night, unsure if it was a dream or it actually happened.
"Oh? There were indeed so passersby singing for a while last night, but I eventually chased them away," Ye Qiu said casually.
"Ah, so I wasn’t dreaming," Wang Hu chuckled, not concerned, for with an expert like Ye Qiu around, Wang Hu really doesn’t need to worry about anyone harming his family.
Speaking of those four people last night, Ye Qiu couldn’t help but show a hint of amusent on his face.
He believed the experience last night must be an unforgettable mory for the four.
After the four sang outside the Wang family courtyard last night, Ye Qiu didn’t trouble them further, allowing them to leave. They subsequently went to Zhao Hechuan’s house for a reckoning. If it weren’t for Zhao Hechuan, they wouldn’t have had such an unspeakable ordeal.
Zhao Hechuan initially thought the four had co to deal with Ye Qiu and bring him benefits. Instead, as soon as the four arrived, without a word, they started beating Zhao Hechuan.
Zhao Hechuan, being battered and bruised, couldn’t fathom the source of their resentnt, barely escaping being beaten to death.
Finally, the leading young man told him that Ye Qiu was not the Dao Zhi they were looking for, and when Zhao Hechuan inquired about what had happened, all four of them suddenly turned sullen, glared at him, and administered another beating.
After the four left, Zhao Hechuan pondered deeply, realizing from their expressions that they must not have fared well against Ye Qiu, otherwise, they wouldn’t have treated him like this.
What exactly did they experience? Zhao Hechuan couldn’t imagine.
"Not good, that guy knows it was who brought them here. Will he co looking for again?" Zhao Hechuan recalled the aning of the words left by the young man, ’You better watch out,’ and was certain they’d revealed him to Ye Qiu.
"Previously, he dared to confront without evidence, and now that I brought these four to deal with him, how could he not..." Zhao Hechuan dared not think further.
The situation is serious; what should he do?
Zhao Hechuan was serious, sensing impending doom.
His gaze shifted constantly, and finally, Zhao Hechuan sighed deeply, having made up his mind.
As the Wang family father and son were having breakfast, Zhao Hechuan suddenly appeared, truly astonishing everyone.
While Wang Tiegang and Wang Hu were pondering Zhao Hechuan’s purpose, Zhao Hechuan glanced at the dining table, then went straight towards Ye Qiu.
"What do you want?" Wang Tiegang suddenly stood and shouted at Zhao Hechuan.
Wang Hu also clenched his fists, very vigilant.
Zhao Hechuan ignored the father and son, and as he approached Ye Qiu, he suddenly knelt down, kowtowing repeatedly, pleading, "Have rcy, heavenly man, I know I’ve been wrong. Initially, I couldn’t recognize your greatness, and I was resentful since you ca to the Wang ho instead of mine. I committed many mistakes, please punish , heavenly man."
Seeing Zhao Hechuan kneeling before Ye Qiu to confess his errors was both puzzling and astonishing to the Wang family father and son, as Ye Qiu hadn’t done anything significant, so why would Zhao Hechuan personally co to apologize?
Wang Tiegang understood Zhao Hechuan’s character; for him to act this way, it must involve soone extraordinary, a rival he felt he couldn’t compete against.
Could the heavenly man have made a move?
Wang Tiegang looked at Ye Qiu, curious about what action Ye Qiu would take.
"If you hadn’t co this morning, I was planning to visit your house," Ye Qiu said calmly.
Zhao Hechuan felt a shock in his heart, barely grasping how lucky he’d been. Fortunately, he’d decided early, or if Ye Qiu had personally visited, who knows what might have happened, given that he was an existence beyond legend, absolutely unbeatable in Qing Shan Village, and a notable figure even in Qing Feng County.
Zhao Hechuan was willing to shoulder the burden of confessing mainly because he was deeply shaken by the attitude of the four when they confronted him.
For three late-phase mythological realm experts and one half-step Royal realm expert to show such expressions, their encounter with Ye Qiu must have been entirely unfavorable, not even on the lower end, but completely dominated by Ye Qiu. Otherwise, they wouldn’t look that way. Such a strong adversary, if Zhao Hechuan continually opposed him, it would surely be his death.
"I’m willing to admit my mistakes and hope the heavenly man does not hold a grudge against a minor, sparing my life."
"Originally, I had no issues with you. You wouldn’t provoke , and I wouldn’t bother you either. But you sent people to target , this matter can’t be let go with just a re admittance of fault," Ye Qiu said.
"As long as the heavenly man spares my life, I’m willing to accept any punishnt," Zhao Hechuan said.
"Oh? Since you comply so readily, fine, I won’t kill you. The death penalty can be waived, but the living penalty is inevitable!" As he spoke, Ye Qiu flicked his finger lightly, Zhao Hechuan’s face suddenly changed, and he imdiately clutched his abdon.
"You sent people after ; I will destroy your Dantian. Today, we are even, do you accept?"
With his Dantian ruined, Zhao Hechuan’s heart was bleeding, but in the face of Ye Qiu’s overwhelming dominance, Zhao Hechuan dared not harbor any resentnt, or it wouldn’t stop at just destroying the Dantian.
"I accept, in the future I will hold no ill will towards the heavenly man," Zhao Hechuan trembled, the pain in his Dantian making it difficult to speak.
"Since it’s settled, you may leave." Ye Qiu said calmly.
"Thank you, heavenly man, for sparing my life from death’s grasp." Zhao Hechuan retreated, clutching his abdon, his martial path ruined and unable to practice martial arts anymore, from now on rely a mortal.
Ye Qiu had extinguished all of Zhao Hechuan’s grander aspirations.
After Zhao Hechuan left, the Wang family father and son were still imrsed in the scene of Ye Qiu casually destroying the Dantian just now.
In the distance, a pair of eyes watched the entire affair unfold until Ye Qiu suddenly directed his gaze over, causing a sharp pain in those eyes.
"My eyes!"
Zhang Ji covered his eyes, crying out in pain, feeling a burning sensation that kept him from opening them, while blood trickled from his eyes down his arm.
Ye Qiu withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, "Spying on my actions, I cripple your sight as severe punishnt!"
