Chapter 125 – Visitors from All Directions Compete for Supremacy (Six)

Empowered by the True Qi surging through his limbs and bones, Ye Kuang’s strength and speed had elevated to an unfathomable level.

His eyes shimmered with a golden glow, serpent-like and unnervingly dangerous.

In that instant, his figure flickered and vanished, weaving left and right until he materialized before his opponent in a single step.

Chi Yunzhong paled in terror, momentarily losing her composure. Before she could react, a powerful hand clamped around her neck.

“Heh heh heh…” Ye Kuang laughed maniacally, as if possessed, seeing his opponent completely at his mercy.

Witnesses were aghast at the sight.

None were more shocked than Mang Shan and the other Tiangang members, who knew well how formidable the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends could be. Yet, they had still fallen to Ye Kuang.

Just how far could this young man go?

Regardless of the varied thoughts among the onlookers, Ye Kuang continued to press Chi Yunzhong forward, pinning her against a wall before halting his relentless advance.

His raucous laughter crescendoed, stunning the entire crowd into a fearful silence. No one dared approach.

Ye Kuang was like a powder keg—one spark away from catastrophic consequences.

Suddenly, shadows stirred beyond the entrance, accompanied by panicked shouts.

“Second Sister!”

“Second Elder Sister!”

“You brat! How dare you harm our Second Sister? We’ll beat you to a pulp!”

“Release her now…”

The Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends had arrived just in time.

Seventy-one of them surged forward in a wave of collective fury.

In their eyes, Ye Kuang’s despicable appearance was utterly loathsome.

Ling Yun, witnessing the scene, turned pale and urgently shouted, “Stay back!”

But his warning came too late.

Without turning his head, Ye Kuang’s ears twitched as he swung his right arm. A tiger’s roar and dragon’s cry echoed as a streak of light sliced through the air.

The women’s charge halted abruptly, their eyes wide with terror as they stared ahead.

The ground bore a clean, claw-like groove, as if sliced through soft tofu.

An overwhelming sense of dread washed over them.

They trembled, faces pale, their gazes fixed on the demonic figure before them.

Even the Earthly Fiends couldn’t help but think: had that strike been even slightly faster, their fate would have been…

At that moment, clarity gradually returned to Ye Kuang’s eyes. He was startled to feel a warm, delicate sensation in his hand.

When had he grabbed Chi Yunzhong’s neck?

Realizing this, he hastily released his left hand.

Freed from his grip, Chi Yunzhong collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath. Tears welled in her eyes, her face etched with sheer terror.

Ye Kuang felt a pang of embarrassment, at a loss for words.

Scanning the room, he noticed the strange looks from everyone and recalled what had transpired, growing increasingly self-conscious.

Stammering, he managed, “Um… well… if I said it was an accident, would anyone believe me?”

Even as he spoke, he knew he didn’t believe it himself.The Di Kui Star elder sister deliberately bypassed a certain someone, not without shooting him a fierce glare.

Ye Kuang: “…”

Only after a moment, when Di Kui Star secretly breathed a sigh of relief, did the other women follow suit in exhaling deeply.

Seeing this, Ye Kuang seized the moment to explain himself: “This really was just an accident…”

Hearing this, the Di Kui Star elder sister sharply rebuked: “You shut your mouth!”

Ye Kuang: “…”

It could be said that because he dared not speak, everyone present quietly watched the only domineering woman in the scene.

Unbeknownst to them, Mang Shan also struggled to his feet, chiming in: “He Luan, this really was an accident…”

Boom!

But who would have thought, before these words even finished, a sudden explosive roar erupted.

Mang Shan was sent flying through the air, both feet leaving the ground.

And the one who struck was none other than the Di Kui Star elder sister!

“Big brother!”

“You crazy woman, how dare you launch a sneak attack!”

“Have you no martial virtue…”

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Stars, witnessing this scene, erupted in furious curses.

The situation seemed poised to escalate into a major conflict at any second.

Yet He Luan appeared completely unfazed, a mocking smile playing on her lips as she said: “What, are you Thirty-Six Stars declaring war on us Di Sha?”

At these words, the Tiangang crowd inevitably glared angrily, yet not one dared step forward to refute her.

This made it clear they were well aware of their own poor condition – if fighting broke out, they would be the ones to suffer.

He Luan: “Mang Shan, since when do you casually address me by name? Just who do you think you are?”

Mang Shan’s face turned ashen with rage at her words, truly feeling aggrieved. Had it been before, their Tiangang faction would still have the capital to boast, but the problem was their current complete lack of fighting strength. Provoking now would only bring humiliation upon themselves.

Remaining silent was the only way to save face.

Seeing her old rival fall silent, He Luan suddenly found it boring and shifted her focus to a certain arrogant individual.

Seeing this, Ye Kuang also knew he was in the wrong, his eyes darting about evasively.

“You’re Ye Kuang?”

“If there aren’t two of me in this world, then I suppose that would be me.”

“Hmph, smooth-talking. You don’t look like a good person at first glance.”

Hearing this, Ye Kuang was momentarily speechless.

He finally understood that keeping quiet was his best option now, and as a person, he should follow Mang Shan’s example.

Seeing this young man also pretending to be deaf and mute, He Luan didn’t let him off either, coldly laughing as she said: “What about the matter with my second sister? How should we settle this? Our original intention wasn’t to trouble you, but given the current situation, it seems we have no choice.”

Hearing this, Ye Kuang’s expression gradually cooled, and he asked lightly: “Are you threatening me?”

Chi Yunzhong, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but inwardly panic, rising to tug at her hot-tempered elder sister’s sleeve.

He Luan glanced back, patting Chi Yunzhong’s small hand before continuing: “When my sister gets bullied, should I, as her elder sister, just swallow my anger?”

Chi Yunzhong: “Ahem… Elder sister, this matter isn’t Ye Kuang’s fault. The mistake lies with me…”

But before her words faded, a sudden chill spread through the area.

And its source was none other than Ye Kuang!”Then I’d like to see it! I’m not even afraid to face the Thirty-Six Heavenly Stars, let alone your Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends. But let me make this clear upfront—if you end up crying, don’t accuse us men of hitting women!”

“You…”
