Ye Chen was indeed unfathomable, but he did not show any grandeur and seemed like an ordinary person with no skills, which was why Peng Tanshen dared to strike recklessly.

However, Ye Chen's aura suddenly exploded in a mighty and overwhelming force, shocking Peng Tanshen into a state of horror. The formidable and invincible aura left his mind blank.

"Crack!"

Ye Chen casually waved his hand and slapped Peng Tanshen's fist. The once unstoppable Peng Tanshen, now like a paper figure, heard a crisp sound in his arm. He only had time to scream before Ye Chen sent him flying with a slap!

The outcome was determined in an instant, the disparity in their strength was too great.

Peng Tanshen had only recently entered the realm of a martial arts master, while Ye Chen was a grandmaster—a gap as vast as that between heaven and earth, like a giant trampling a bug.

"I heard of your tyrannical acts, and I originally wanted to slap you to death!"

Ye Chen walked over to Peng Tanshen's body and stood quietly, looking down at him collapsed on the ground, his face full of terror.

"Great hero, spare my life. I was blind to not recognize Mount Tai and have offended you!" Peng Tanshen spat out blood, his face ashen, utterly terrified.

The strength displayed by Ye Chen could completely crush him. If it weren't for the fact that Ye Chen had no intention to kill, that slap would have certainly been fatal! Enveloped by the shadow of death, Peng Tanshen quickly realized that he had encountered a supreme expert and had offended someone he should not have!

"A person like you should be revered, become the guardian of the nation, gain widespread fame, and be known as a hero."

"Even though you and Li Yan had some displeasure, I was planning to mediate, since becoming a martial arts master is incredibly difficult!"

"But your behavior has disappointed me. You lost your way, listened to the wicked, abused your powerful martial force, and committed actions against the martial principle!"

"I originally wanted to slap a scum like you to death, but I also do not wish to kill easily. I can only take away all your skills!"

"From now on, your veins will be severed and your True Qi completely dispersed. This is the punishment I give you," Ye Chen said indifferently.

The arm Peng Tanshen previously used to strike now hung limply, blood dripping from his mouth. His entire body's meridians were shattered by Ye Chen, and his True Qi was forcefully scattered, turning him from a martial arts master into an ordinary person.

Ye Chen demonstrated a devastating force, reducing Peng Tanshen to nothing more than an insect with a single slap, the epitome of might and dominance.

Wang Dazhi watched as Peng Tanshen continuously spat blood, his face turning ashen, instantly making his expression extremely unsightly, as if someone had forcibly stuffed a dead rat in a chrysanthemum.

Li Yan was completely stunned, her mind in disarray from the shock Ye Chen brought her.

Just now, if Ye Chen had indeed slapped Peng Tanshen to death, Li Yan would have thought he was speaking recklessly. However, a slap indeed proved to be just a slap as Peng Tance collapsed on the ground, spewing blood!

"Indeed worthy of being my male idol. Only such a powerful man deserves my adoration," exclaimed Su Binglan with a joyous smile, as Ye Chen proved his strength, a god-like man!

One slap, exactly one slap, without any hesitation, he crippled a martial arts master in an instant—an exceptional display of dominance!

A martial arts master is an extremely distinguished individual even among the elite. Those high officials and nobles must address such persons with respectful titles

Peng Tanshen, by a stroke of fortune, reached the Unity of Heaven and Man a month ago and stepped into the realm of a martial arts master.

This breakthrough catapulted Peng Tanshen's status, undergoing a revolutionary change.

Although Peng Tanshen was a capable Zhongnanhai bodyguard, he seemed unattainable to those nobles in the elite circle, lacking even the qualifications to associate with them.

But since the news of his promotion to martial arts master spread, those high and mighty individuals began to warmly welcome him, keenly seeking his favor and competing to win him over.

In a very short time, Peng Tanshen's status soared, along with his reputation.

One moment a mortal, the next a divine being!

Having achieved the position of a martial arts master, Peng Tanshen naturally wouldn't be content with being just a mere bodyguard.

Playing with models, driving luxury cars, living in mansions.

Peng Tanshen reached the peak of his life, but he wasn't satisfied with what he had, so he set his sights on Li Yan.

Huaxia's number one sexy female anchor, a goddess many men dreamt of, Peng Tanshen had been Li Yan's bodyguard for a year, naturally getting hooked by the close interactions with this female anchor.

Unfortunately, Li Yan was not the flirty type; otherwise, the scheming Peng Tanshen would have succeeded long ago.

As his contract was nearing expiration, Peng Tanshen naturally did not want to ruin his prospects. Even though he liked Li Yan to the extent of obsessively wanting to possess her, he no longer wished to continue as a bodyguard, with a broader stage awaiting him outside.

Just as Peng Tanshen gave up the idea of pursuing Li Yan, his cousin Wang Dazhi saw the contract signed with her and immediately exploited a loophole, forcing her into a sexual relationship with him.

Thus, the two colluded and aggressively pursued Li Yan, determined to possess her forcefully.

This unreasonable demand was, of course, vehemently opposed by Li Yan, but Wang Dazhi and Peng Tanshen created irrational trouble and pressed her relentlessly, leaving even Li Yan exhausted from dealing with them.

Today, Peng Tanshen finally became desperate and resorted to domineering and aggressive methods, attempting to force his will, but tragically, things went awry.

Ye Chen's arrival turned all of Peng Tanshen and Wang Dazhi's delusions into illusions.

"I regret it!" Peng Tanshen howled to the sky as yet another mouthful of fresh blood spurted out, looking utterly miserable. "I was once a martial arts master, respected and revered wherever I went!"

"But for my personal desires, I pushed people to a dead end, only to lead myself to the same fate, truly what goes around comes around, it's karmic retribution!"

"Had I adhered to the balance of Heavenly Dao, my future would have been smooth!"

"But my moment of evil brought upon me the punishment of Heavenly Dao, resulting in my veins being utterly severed, and I became a martial arts cripple!"

"One misstep creates an eternal regret!"

"I regret it!"

No longer was Peng Tanshen the vibrant and imposing figure he had been; now he was utterly disheartened and looked defeated.

As someone who could become a martial arts master, Peng Tanshen was exceptionally perceptive; aware of the elusive Heavenly Dao, despite being crippled by Ye Chen in one move, he harbored no resentful thoughts and realized this was the cycle of Heavenly Dao, his just retribution.

"Peng Tanshen, why the desolation? They harmed someone maliciously, we can call the police to arrest them!" Wang Dazhi hurried to help Peng Tanshen, who was still spitting blood on the ground. "Li Yan didn't follow the contract, she has to pay us ten times the penalty; we still have a chance!"

"There's no chance left!" Peng Tanshen said, looking defeated and lifeless.

"We do have a chance, the contract is still valid, and Li Yan won't be able to escape our grasp!" Wang Dazhi said. "Do you realize how much ten times the penalty is? It's millions!"

Ye Chen frowned slightly; Wang Dazhi truly was a despicable man. Despite Peng Tanshen being defeated by a single move from him, rather than seeking immediate medical treatment for Wang Dazhi, he continued to fervently incite Peng Tanshen to coerce Li Yan, an utterly detestable act.

Not only did Ye Chen find Wang Dazhi repulsive, but Li Yan and Su Binglan also glared in anger; Wang Dazhi truly was beyond contempt!

Peng Tanshen's fall into evil was likely directly related to Wang Dazhi. Had it not been for Wang Dazhi's malevolent influence, Peng Tanshen would not have been subtly corrupted into committing such lawless acts.

However, at that moment, something utterly unexpected happened, and even Ye Chen was somewhat surprised.

"Cousin!" Peng Tanshen suddenly shouted.

"Huh?" Wang Dazhi was still confused.

"I'm finished! Do you understand, I'm finished, and it's all because of you leading me astray. If it hadn't been for you, I would never have lost my true self and ended up like this!" Peng Tanshen instantly lost control, furiously enraged. "If I'm going to suffer, I won't let you have it easy either. I've become a cripple, so I will make you one too!"

Even though Peng Tanshen's True Qi had been scattered by Ye Chen's slap and his meridians severed, he still had deep reserves, and even now, he possessed a force to reckon with!

"Ah! Peng Tanshen, what are you trying to do! Ah~~!" Wang Dazhi suddenly let out a scream. "Murder!"

In a sudden frenzy, Peng Tanshen grabbed Wang Dazhi's glasses and drove the sharp edge directly into Wang Dazhi's eyes, blood spurted wildly, and the eyeballs were almost gouged out by Peng Tanshen.

Peng Tanshen completely lost his sanity, slashing the flesh on Wang Dazhi's face with the sharp edge of the glasses, blood pooling everywhere, while the latter was utterly petrified, the excruciating pain causing continuous howling.

This scene was extremely brutal, resembling a human purgatory!

"Ah!" Li Yan screamed in horror at the bloody scene, which truly shook her.

However, Su Binglan watched calmly, her expression unchanged; apparently, such a scene couldn't intimidate her; indeed, she truly deserved the title of witch.

"They're killing each other, let's call the police!" Ye Chen said.

At this point, Ye Chen had done all he could.

After all, he had retired, his glory days behind him, losing the privilege to act above his level; now, he had to leave the matter to the police, since he was, after all, a law-abiding citizen.

"But Peng Tanshen was injured by you; if we call the police, won't you be implicated?" Li Yan asked.

"I have an ID card, what's there to fear?" Ye Chen said humorously.

"Yan, just call the police, and leave the rest to your sister!" Su Binglan said.

With connections in Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan, and Peng Tanshen now crippled and unlikely to have anyone champion his cause, resolving this small matter would be a cinch for Su Binglan.

Li Yan nodded slightly; knowing the vast reach of Su Binglan's Divine Skills, she felt reassured and made the call.

Soon after, the sound of police sirens disrupted the entire film city.

Ye Chen was enjoying the admiring looks from Su Binglan and Li Yan, but his expression suddenly shifted as he saw Zhang Xinlan rushing over.

Seeing Su Binglan nearby, Ye Chen felt a bit guilty.

Had Zhang Xinlan discovered something?
