"So what if I slap your face, you old thief who distorts the truth and justice, do you still have any shame?" Ye Chen sneered viciously, his palm rising and falling as he ferociously slapped Xu Xingchen's face repeatedly.

"Smack!"

"Smack! Smack!"

"Smack! Smack! Smack!"

The crisp slapping sound was incessant, causing some of the heroes to wince with empathetic pain. They were starting to feel sorry for Xu Xingchen, as the youngster Ye Chen was really bullying him!

"No, no more, please! I surrender!" Xu Xingchen's old eyes burst into tears, completely subdued by Ye Chen's beating.

"I ask you, of the brothers from the Li Family that I killed, who killed the other, Lei Tianwen?" Ye Chen pressed.

"This—"

Xu Xingchen hesitated, but seeing this, Ye Chen raised his hand and delivered another slap to the face, resuming the beating.

"I'll tell you, I killed Lei Tianwen!" Xu Xingchen wailed, utterly conquered by Ye Chen's violence.

"You worthless thing, you definitely deserve to die; my brother was actually killed by you!"

A dragon-like aura surged to the sky, as a person of peerless status arrived forcefully. This man was none other than Lei Tianhu, ranked twenty-third on the Qingyun List.

"This is bad, I've exposed the truth, and now Lei Tianhu is here to kill me!"

After Lei Tianhu made his appearance, Xu Xingchen's face changed with fear, and his short stature trembled uncontrollably.

"You murdered my brother and then tried to blame someone else, but as they say, 'after a dark path comes a village'. Now that the truth is out, how could I not kill you to honor my deceased brother!" Lei Tianhu declared with surging hatred.

"No, no, it wasn't me who killed your brother!" Xu Xingchen tried desperately to argue. "It was him, this junior who took action, and killed your brother!"

Lei Tianhu was a supreme Qingyun power, and Ye Chen was also terrifyingly powerful. If he could incite these two figures to fight each other, then he, Xu Xingchen, might have a chance to live.

"Even now, you still think to sow dissension?"

Lei Tianhu laughed angrily. He observed the situation quietly, convinced that Xu Xingchen was the real killer of his brother.

"It truly wasn't me; it was all this junior!" Xu Xingchen indignantly pointed at Ye Chen.

"When push comes to shove, you still want to deny the crime?"

Lei Tianhu looked at Xu Xingchen coldly, his presence exuding an awe-inspiring aura, the might of a Qingyun strength-bearer.

As Lei Tianhu advanced with an oppressive air, Xu Xingchen turned into a desperate cur, biting at anyone in sight. However, what caliber of person was Lei Tianhu? He would not be easily provoked into a fight with Ye Chen.

"All of you, just wait. The humiliation I suffered today, I will repay a hundredfold another day!"

Xu Xingchen suddenly grew vicious, and with boundless might, his short stature swiftly retreated, clearly attempting to flee for his life.

"..."

The actions of Xu Xingchen left all the heroes somewhat dumbfounded.

Being a peak Grandmaster, Xu Xingchen had joined forces with several Peerless Grandmasters to pressure this junior, which was truly shameless.

Unexpectedly, Ye Chen's explosive radiance turned the tables, killing these old fellows and bringing both death and life into sharp contrast, revealing Xu Xingchen's malicious framing, and drawing out the appearance of Lei Tianhu, a Qingyun figure. Now, facing certain death and despair, Xu Xingchen actually abandoned all pride and fled? Such behavior was truly the most shameless in the world!

Grandmasters are considered top-tier individuals in this world, and even when faced with formidable enemies, it is rare for them to flee without a fight!

With such a retreat, even if one manages to cling to life, they would lose all reputation and never be able to lift their head in front of the mighty ones of the world. Rather than that, it would be better to die a glorious death!

Yet, Xu Xingchen, shameless as he was, faced with a powerful enemy, chose to turn tail and run. It was utterly spineless!

"Xu Xingchen, you coward, I truly regret ever knowing you!"

"Trash, weakling, the kind of person I despise the most in my life!"

"..."

One after another, the heroes voiced their condemnation; Xu Xingchen's actions brought them great shame.

"You dare!"

"You have endless murderous intent towards me, how can I let you leave!"

Ye Chen and Lei Tianhu let out simultaneous long howls, both bursting with ferocious aura as they chased after the fleeing Xu Xingchen.

With the heroes of all sides present, none of them had expected Xu Xingchen to forsake his dignity and flee, but how could they let him escape as he wished, both Ye Chen and Lei Tianhu harbored deep murderous intent towards him.

Xu Xingchen was a peak Grandmaster, fleeing with astonishing momentum, yet Lei Tianhu, the twenty-third-ranked supreme Qingyun strongman, was almost catching up to Xu Xingchen in a matter of breaths, which alarmed the heroes; the Qingyun indeed knew no bounds.

"You've defiled and maligned me, today we'll end it all completely!"

Ye Chen's performance stunned the heroes the most, his momentum was not weaker than Lei Tianhu's, and his speed even surpassed him.

"What!"

Xu Xingchen's face changed dramatically, Ye Chen's speed had surpassed Lei Tianhu and he had caught up even though he started later, now standing right in front of him.

"You deserve to die!" Ye Chen said coldly, unleashing a forceful palm strike, displaying his domineering power.

"No, I don't want to die!"

Xu Xingchen was terribly frightened; Ye Chen's violent palm strike gave him a sense of impending death.

"You dare!"

Lei Tianhu roared with fury, Xu Xingchen was the sworn enemy who killed his brother, how could he let someone else end him.

"Boom!"

Even though Xu Xingchen fought desperately, he was still struck by that palm, his small stature trembled violently as an explosive sound erupted from within him, his internal organs were shattered by the blow, and his life was completely extinguished!

"Bang!"

Xu Xingchen's figure flew sideways, crashing into a large tree before harshly hitting the ground, a once peerless strongman now fallen.

"You shouldn't have provoked me!"

After slaying four men, Ye Chen finally retracted his killing intent.

"Junior, you dare kill my nemesis!"

Lei Tianhu was a fraction slower than Ye Chen, and Xu Xingchen was killed by Ye Chen's palm, which he found somewhat damaging to his pride.

Even if Ye Chen had a divine demeanour, being the world's number-one prodigy, he had not yet grown to his full potential. Lei Tianhu was a Qingyun, one of the strongest in the world, and they both struck at the enemy together, but Ye Chen was one step faster, which outraged Lei Tianhu.

"He killed your brother, and I avenged you, do you plan to blame me for that?" Ye Chen asked, surprised.

"I, Lei Tianhu, am ranked among the Qingyun, I've roamed the world for thirty years, a mere peak Grandmaster does not require you to take action on my behalf!" Lei Tianhu said coldly.

"You are a senior with great virtue, but now that the man has been killed by me, what do you want to do?" Ye Chen's voice didn't betray any fear. "Perhaps, you wish to bully the weaker as Xu Xingchen did?"

"You impudent junior, even if my brother was killed by Xu Xingchen, you can't escape your involvement in his death!" Lei Tianhu said solemnly, his voice carrying a veiled hostility towards Ye Chen, but Ye Chen's peculiar performance made Lei Tianhu somewhat hesitant to engage in battle lightly.

"So what if it has something to do with me, it was your brother who tried to kill me first!" Ye Chen declared forcefully. "Moreover, your brother did not die by my hand, in fact, I helped you kill the one who murdered your brother!"
