“You hit Ma Lipu?” Wang Peng looked at Ye Chu, his face showing panic. He stared blankly at Ye Chu, thinking this was truly an ancestor of trouble. As soon as he arrived, he looked for trouble with Wang De. Finding him was fine, that was nothing much. After all, Ye Chu could still beat Wang De.
But who was Ma Lipu? He was Liu Huo’s lackey. Ye Chu hitting him was equivalent to slapping Liu Huo’s face. Liu Huo certainly would not let him off.
Who was Liu Huo? Among the Blue Jade generation, he could rank in the top five. That was one thing. Most importantly, behind him sat a Purple Jade generation disciple. Purple Jade generation disciples were figures of another level. They possessed independent mountain peaks, could recruit disciples on their own, had groups of servants, and held immense power.
Every Purple Jade generation disciple was a big shot of a region. Even pavilion elders and such had to give them face. Some Purple Jade generation disciples would casually beat and scold elders. That was the terror of the Purple Jade generation.
Liu Huo was not only formidable in his own strength, but also had a Purple Jade generation disciple as his backer. This made him someone no one dared to provoke. Yet at this moment, Ye Chu had hit his man.
Wang Peng could not help but tell Ye Chu about Liu Huo’s identity and status, telling him to be careful.
Ye Chu laughed instead. “Hit him and it is done. Can he still overturn the heavens?”
“Senior Brother Ye Chu, you…”
Just as Wang Peng was about to dissuade him, above their abode, someone shouted loudly. “Ye Chu, Senior Brother Liu Huo invites you to come gather!”
“It is over!” Wang Peng stared blankly at the group of people. These cultivators who had come were all Liu Huo’s servants. These people coming together was clearly Liu Huo’s indication.
Ye Chu looked at this group of people. He stood up from the green stone, patted the dust off his backside. He was just about to leap upward when he saw Wang De fly over from somewhere.
“What is all the noise about? This great one’s territory is not a place you lot can set foot on!” Wang De did not know when he had run out. He roared at the group of people. “Scram!”
Ma Lipu covered his face. Looking at Wang De, he also felt somewhat fearful. Wang De’s violent temper was famous. Being targeted by him would bring no good result. But thinking of Liu Huo’s instructions, Ma Lipu mustered his courage again. He let go of his hand. His face still bore the marks from Ye Chu’s slap.
“Senior Brother Wang De, this time we have not come looking for you. We have come to find Ye Chu. Senior Brother Liu Huo has invited him to go. I hope Senior Brother Wang De will not obstruct.” When mentioning Liu Huo, Ma Lipu could not help but add emphasis to his voice, reminding Wang De whose orders he was acting upon.
“None of my damn business. This is my territory. I once said that outsiders are not allowed to disturb here. Are you deaf or forgetful? Still not scramming for me. Believe it or not, I will slap you out.” Wang De glared at Ma Lipu. “What is your status? You also have the qualifications to speak to me like this?”
Ma Lipu was berated by Wang De. His expression changed somewhat. But in the end, he still gritted his teeth and said. “Senior Brother Wang De, do not force us. Senior Brother Liu Huo said, he must bring Senior Brother Ye Chu along. If Senior Brother Wang De insists on obstructing, bringing disaster upon yourself cannot be blamed on anyone.”
Wang De was furious. But he also did not make a move. Liu Huo truly made him wary. Back when he had just become a Blue Jade generation disciple, he had suffered a great loss at Liu Huo’s hands.
“Why bother with so much nonsense with them? Since they have come to our territory, just beat them out directly.” Ye Chu looked at Wang De and smiled. As he spoke, he slapped Ma Lipu’s face again.
“You…” Ma Lipu roared. “Ye Chu, you are courting death…”
“Whether I am courting death is not for you to say!” Ye Chu slapped out again, directly sending Ma Lipu flying. Ye Chu entered this group of disciples. Slap after slap, he continuously struck out.
With each slap that went out, a cultivator went flying.
Wang Peng watched as cultivator after cultivator screamed. His face had long gone pale.
“It is over, it is over. This time it is truly over.”
Wang De also stared blankly at Ye Chu. He had not expected Ye Chu to be so bold, treating Liu Huo’s people like this, directly striking out. This fellow’s guts were much stronger than his.
In a short time, these people were all sent flying by Ye Chu. These people rolled on the ground, screaming incessantly. Ye Chu did not look at them. Instead, he looked at Wang De and said. “For people like this, what use is saying too much?”
Wang De snorted. He stared at Ye Chu and said. “Hitting people naturally feels good. But if you get hit back, I am afraid it will not feel good.”
“You are talking about Liu Huo?” Ye Chu looked at Wang De with a smile. Then he smiled. “You are afraid of him?”
“Me, afraid of him?” Wang De was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. He glared at Ye Chu, nearly jumping up from anger.
“If you are not afraid, why are you so agitated?” Ye Chu looked at Wang De with a smile.
“I am because… because…”
Ye Chu did not pay attention to Wang De. He strode toward the outside. Seeing this, Wang De could not help but ask. “What are you going to do?”
“Did not Liu Huo want to see me? Then I shall go see him. See what business he has with me.”
When Ye Chu’s words reached Wang De’s ears, Wang De stared blankly at Ye Chu. He could not believe Ye Chu still dared to deliver himself to the door at this time. Was this fellow crazy? Did he not know Liu Huo’s terror?
Watching Ye Chu walk further and further away, Wang De suddenly gritted his teeth. He shouted at Ye Chu. “Wait for me!”
Wang De had always been afraid of Liu Huo. But seeing Ye Chu dare to go at this moment, what was he still afraid of? Could he be inferior to a newly arrived disciple?
Ye Chu did not wait for Wang De. His steps walked very fast. Wang De followed behind Ye Chu. He looked at Ye Chu in surprise. Ye Chu’s steps were clearly very normal, no different from an ordinary person walking. But with each step he took, it was like a gust of wind, covering an extremely far distance.
“Eh, what movement technique is this fellow using?” Wang De was surprised. He felt it was somewhat similar to the movement technique used when fighting him last time, yet also different. Compared to last time, it seemed much more mature, and also much stronger.
Wang De quickly chased behind Ye Chu. His chasing speed was very fast. But between Ye Chu’s steps, he always maintained a certain distance from Wang De. No matter how much Wang De accelerated, he could not catch up to Ye Chu.
Wang De showed a shocked expression. His eyes burned brightly as he looked at Ye Chu. “This fellow actually…”
Ye Chu walked all the way. Very quickly, he arrived at a mountain peak. Only when he reached this mountain peak did Ye Chu pause his footsteps. Wang De stood before Ye Chu, somewhat out of breath. “What movement technique were you using just now? Also, are you really going to see Liu Huo?”
Ye Chu smiled. He said to Wang De. “If I do not see him, would I let him send people every day to disturb our peace?”
“What you said is also true. Hmph, back then he humiliated me like that. Today is exactly the right time to make things clear with him.” Wang De gritted his teeth, mustered his courage, and strode up.
Ye Chu was behind Wang De. The two of them together stepped onto the mountain peak’s stone steps. But they had just walked up when a voice rang out. “Welcome Junior Brothers Ye Chu and Wang De for coming. I did not go far to welcome you. I hope Junior Brothers will forgive me!”
