Chapter 129 – Encountering Grievances of the Jianghu

Ye Kuang had originally intended to swallow his pride, but someone just had to provoke him despite knowing better.

Well, as he would say: “Since you insist on playing with fire, you should know the consequences of getting burned!”

And Ye Kuang had never been one to shy away from trouble. Under the influence of the Supreme Yang Palm Technique, this trait of his was amplified infinitely, making him increasingly sharp and unyielding.

Even the Rock and Stone Elders beside him fell silent when Ye Kuang spoke, knowing full well that further discussion was pointless.

Sometimes, fists speak louder than words.

At this thought, the Rock and Stone Elders sighed deeply and walked out of the hall.

As for who would emerge victorious, they neither wished to speculate nor intervene.

Just then, Ye Kuang swept his gaze arrogantly across the room and declared, “This junior, Ye Kuang, has never feared trouble since birth. Your intentions are clear to all. If you rely on your influence to bully others, I might struggle to make waves, but forgive my bluntness—no matter who the enemy is, I will smash their teeth in.”

Upon hearing this, Yuan Chenghu and Ma Chenghe exchanged cold glances and rose to their feet with sneers.

It was clear they had come looking for trouble.

Had Yinghao Martial Hall willingly handed over the unknown palm technique, things might have been different. But now, the situation had escalated.

Yuan Chenghu taunted, “Brat, I heard you were no match for Ma Wei before. Since I am on the same level as him, what makes you think you can challenge us?”

Ma Chenghe stepped forward, looking down on Ye Kuang, and said, “Why should Brother Yuan and I bother with you? Ma Xiaofeng, you handle him.”

No sooner had he spoken than the “Tiger and Crane Duo” made their disdain for Ye Kuang evident.

Ma Xiaofeng, the young man standing behind Ma Chenghe, stepped forward at the command.

Seeing this, Ye Kuang burst into wild laughter. “Him? I’m afraid he’s not enough. I suggest you all come at me together!”

“Arrogant!”

“You have no idea how high the sky or how deep the earth is!”

“You insolent brat, you’re far too arrogant!”

“Bastard!”

Ye Kuang didn’t waste another word. He had no interest in these four or five fighters around the Clarity Realm.

Bam!

A loud crash echoed as Ma Xiaofeng, standing at the front, was struck in the chest before he could react.

Pfft!

Instantly, Ma Xiaofeng shuddered as if electrocuted, vomiting blood as he was sent flying backward.

The scene unfolded so quickly that even Ma Chenghe paled, roaring like a tiger, “You dare to sneak attack?”

But before his words faded, another fist shot out with lightning speed.

It was the other young man, Yuan Xiaoqing.

Seeing this, Ma Chenghe held back and rushed to Ma Xiaofeng’s side, his face turning ashen.

Bam!

Another loud crash followed, startling the Yuan and Ma elders.

Yuan Xiaoqing lay curled on the ground, having met the same fate as Ma Xiaofeng.

“You? How is this possible…”

“Hiss…”Upon hearing this, Ye Kuang paid no heed whatsoever. He then strode briskly toward Yuan Chenghu and Ma Chenghe, jeering as he walked: “I’ve told you already, you’re no match for me. Why not heed this Junior’s advice and turn back before it’s too late!”

As he spoke, his voice grew increasingly sinister.

Yuan Chenghu: “Bullshit! I alone am enough to deal with you!”

Ma Chenghe grew even more enraged and threw a punch without a second thought.

Ye Kuang: “It seems you still haven’t grasped the situation. Very well…”

Before his words faded, he unexpectedly launched a self-created Subduing Tiger Fist with a single fist, directly meeting Ma Chenghe’s punch.

Boom!

A muffled thunderous sound erupted as Ye Kuang’s fierce fist energy surged forth.

In that instant, he actually cracked several bloody gashes in his opponent’s knuckles.

Seeing this situation, even if Yuan Chenghu were utterly foolish, he knew deep down that this young man was now at least their equal.

Thinking this, Yuan Chenghu suddenly shouted: “Brother Ma, I’ll assist you!”

“Hahaha…” Seeing the two attacking together, Ye Kuang showed no panic whatsoever. Instead, he laughed heartily and unrestrainedly.

It could be said that dealing with those in the Clarity Realm was now as simple as cutting melons and chopping vegetables.

In the past, this would have been unimaginable to him. Yet who would have thought that once Subduing Tiger was unleashed, it would create such a one-sided situation.

No sooner said than done!

Ye Kuang struck with both fists simultaneously, attacking left and right, actually crossing his arms to catch both Yuan Chenghu and Ma Chenghe’s punches.

Before the two could react, Ye Kuang opened his mouth and said: “Have you ever witnessed the Sudden Arrival palm?”

Roar! Roar! Roar!

As his words fell, his arms suddenly extended. Seizing the moment when his opponents couldn’t react, he slammed both palms hard against Yuan Chenghu and Ma Chenghe’s chests.

Thump! Thump!

Splat… Splat…

Two blood arrows shot through the air. At first glance, Ma Xiaofeng and Yuan Xiaoqing were utterly stunned, their eyes wide with disbelief.

Could it be that even their family Elders were no match for Ye Kuang?

How was this possible!

As Ye Kuang saw the two elders pressed against the wall, his feet never stopped moving. His entire figure strikingly launched another attack.

His speed was like lightning, flashing by in an instant.

At this moment, both Yuan Chenghu and Ma Chenghe’s expressions changed dramatically with shock.

Only now did they finally realize that Ye Kuang was no longer the unremarkable figure he once was!

Yuan Chenghu: “Xingyi Fist!”

Ma Chenghe: “Tiger and Crane Dual Form!”

Hearing their shouts, Ye Kuang completely ignored them. With palms held as if supporting heaven and earth, he then unleashed countless consecutive palm strikes.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

For a time, the entire scene was filled with flying fists and palms, clashing continuously, forming an unbroken chain of attacks.

“Hahaha…” Ye Kuang grew more frenzied and courageous the more he fought!

But when his arms suddenly spread wide, they instantly erupted with a circle of invisible energy waves.

Looking again, both Yuan Chenghu and Ma Chenghe appeared as if struck by a heavy blow, vomiting blood as they were sent flying backward.

“Elder Yuan!”

“Elder Ma!”

That moment was too swift and violent. As Yuan Xiaoqing and Ma Xiaofeng cried out in succession, two figures instantly fell from mid-air.

Witnessing this scene, Ye Kuang’s expression remained unchanged, unable to conceal his inner anger, as he coldly stated: “I told you, you’re no match for me. Why bring suffering upon yourselves!”

“How is this possible!”

Yuan Chenghu, clearly unable to accept the fact of being defeated by a junior, became nearly hysterical.Instead, Ma Chenghe’s eyes revealed a venomous glint as he muttered in disbelief, “How could I not be a match for this brat? How did this happen…”

Faced with the identical gazes of these four individuals, Ye Kuang couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

“In the martial world, one cannot always act as they wish. Once grievances accumulate over time, it either ends with blades stained in blood or brings calamity to the living. A path of grudges… the sin lies with people, and the root of disaster is the human heart!”

It was only then that Ye Kuang truly understood he had encountered the intricate entanglements of martial world vendettas!
