Chapter 101 - The Crazy Ye Dongjian

The man in black’s body heavily fell to the ground, all the tendons in his limbs cut by four small knives that had sunk into them, leaving him similarly unable to move.Despite his strength being much greater than Ye Chenfeng’s, he ended up capsized in the gutter due to a moment of carelessness.

But how could he fathom how the small knives embedded in the round iron pillars could attack on their own?

Then, a flash of insight struck the man in black as he mumbled to himself, “True Energy released externally?

How is that possible?

To achieve external release of True Energy, one’s strength must reach the Earth Rank, and I can’t sense a trace of True Energy from him.”

The external release of True Energy that the man in black spoke of followed the same principle as Ye Chenfeng’s use of Soul Force, except that ancient martial experts needed to reach the Earth Rank before they could use it, and the man in black was still far from breaking through to that level.

But how could Ye Chenfeng use a move similar to the external release of True Energy?

The man in black racked his brains but couldn’t come up with an explanation.

“Ye Chenfeng, who exactly are you?

Are you also from the Ancient Martial World?” Now it was the man in black’s turn to be full of doubt.

He knew that the great families in the city could not possibly cultivate someone like Ye Chenfeng; it was ridiculous that the world considered such a skilled person a fool.

Sitting on the ground with his back against a round iron pillar, Ye Chenfeng’s breathing was disordered, his body continuously losing blood, making his face become even paler, and he couldn’t muster the strength to speak.

Just then, Ye Dongjian also snapped out of his shock, let out a loud shout from his throat, and rushed toward the immobile man in black without any hesitation.

Seeing Ye Dongjian’s fierce expression, the man in black felt a surge of fear.

Who in this world is not afraid of death?

He threatened, “You’d better release me now, or the power behind me will completely erase the Yes from Huaxia Country.”

“Ah!” Ye Dongjian’s eyes turned bloodshot as he thought of his deceased elder brother and sister-in-law, unable to quell the flames of anger in his heart.

He pulled a small knife from the black-clad man’s wrist, causing the man to continuously grunt in pain.

But what followed was a true nightmare for the man in black!

Ye Dongjian wielded the small knife without hesitation, stabbing the man in black over and over, the warm blood spraying all over his face.

He didn’t even have time to wipe the blood off as his hand never ceased its slashing motions.

Ye Chenfeng had never imagined his uncle could become so crazed.

He had planned to interrogate the man in black once he regained his strength, hoping to glean some useful information.

After all, the man in black was just a pawn; the true force targeting the Ye family was still a mystery to him.

However, after Ye Dongjian’s torture, it would be difficult for the man in black to even wish for survival, let alone provide useful information.

The man in black’s throat kept emitting cries of pain; perhaps the parking lot had already been cleared by him in advance, for such commotion attracted not a soul.

In the end, Ye Dongjian aimed the small knife at the man in black’s heart, driving the tip forcefully into his chest.

The man in black’s eyes bulged, as if he couldn’t believe that he, who only ever tortured others to death, would meet the same fate himself.

After stirring the small knife in the man in black’s heart, Ye Dongjian slowly let go of the handle, leaving the knife embedded in the man’s heart without pulling it out.

The man in black’s body had been stabbed so many times by the small knife that it was a mess of wounds, with some holes spurting blood incessantly like a small fountain.

Ye Dongjian slumped on the ground, his entire being soaked in the other’s blood.

Perhaps because he had exhausted all his strength just moments ago, he hadn’t moved an inch since. The most update n0vels are published on NovᴇlFɪre.nᴇt

After a short while, Ye Dongjian’s bloodshot eyes gradually returned to their usual expression.

He rose from the ground and walked over to Ye Chenfeng, helping him up from the ground.

Looking at the bloody figure before him, Ye Chenfeng gave a wry smile and said, “Uncle, why did you have to do this?

Besides, he wasn’t the real mastermind behind the curtain.”

Hearing Ye Chenfeng’s words, Ye Dongjian realized that in his impulsiveness, he had cut off all leads, and said with considerable remorse, “Chenfeng, I’m sorry, your uncle was too rash just now.”

Ye Chenfeng shook his head and said, “It’s okay, Uncle.

Now that he’s dead, he’s dead.

I believe it won’t be long before more assassins will come after us.

Moreover, knowing who the real killer is behind the scenes doesn’t help us now.

With my current strength, I can’t avenge us.

That man in black probably wasn’t even the most dangerous figure within the enemy’s forces!

If they find out that the person they sent has been killed by us, next time they will definitely send an even stronger assassin.”

Ye Chenfeng’s brows furrowed slightly, it seemed that enhancing his strength was a matter of urgency.

If it hadn’t been for his luck today, he most likely would have lost his life to the man in black.

Moreover, the accident that befell his parents was somehow connected to the Ancient Martial World, which put Ye Chenfeng on even higher alert.

He didn’t know how formidable the masters of the Ancient Martial World were 500 years ago, but he was aware that the Ancient Martial World had been gradually declining 500 years later.

That’s why Ye Chenfeng, in his past life, had never crossed paths with anyone from the Ancient Martial World and only had a rough understanding of its structure.

“Chenfeng, should we tell the old man about what happened today?” Ye Dongjian asked uncertainly.

Ye Chenfeng shook his head and said, “Uncle, let’s not tell Grandpa about this for now.

Telling him won’t help, and it will only make him more enraged.

That could be very bad for his health.”

“Then I will have someone take the corpse of the man in black back to the Strong Soldier Training Camp.

We’ll see if we can identify him by his fingerprints,” Ye Dongjian concurred with Ye Chenfeng’s suggestion.

“Uncle, you can have someone take the body back, but make sure it’s someone trustworthy.

And this matter must not be leaked to anyone,” Ye Chenfeng knew that running checks on the body likely wouldn’t turn up anything meaningful, but since his uncle had suggested it, he allowed him to try.

“Chenfeng, why don’t you come back with me to the Strong Soldier Training Camp?

The wounds on your body and hands need prompt attention,” Ye Dongjian said with concern.

Ye Chenfeng flatly refused, responding, “Uncle, the injuries I sustained are just superficial, nothing serious.

In a few days, I might need to leave Tianhai for a while.

When I return, my strength should have increased significantly.

By then, I should also be able to help you, Uncle, enhance your strength.”

At present, the Ye family didn’t know which power has set their sights on them.

Now, only Ye Chenfeng and Ye Dongjian remained of the main lineage.

If an assassin came for Ye Chenfeng, he felt he could hold his own, but what if they targeted Ye Dongjian?

Ye Dongjian would be killed in an instant!

So, for safety’s sake, Ye Chenfeng felt he had no choice but to lend a hand to his uncle.
