Chapter 118 – This person won't mind!

Dong Tiangong and the several Invincible Realm experts pursuing Huang Wenyue all turned pale. None of them had expected that the person before them would be a Giant Level powerhouse!

This was far too terrifying!

Dong Tiangong’s hands and feet trembled as he swallowed hard, his expression tense.

He wasn’t sure about the relationship between this Giant Level powerhouse and Huang Wenyue. If the two were close, he would most likely not survive today—no one could escape from a Giant Level expert.

“Where did this Giant Level powerhouse come from!” Dong Tiangong groaned inwardly, feeling that he was likely doomed today.

Ye Sheng glanced at the group but had no intention of taking action.

These people merely had a conflict with Huang Wenyue. Saving him was already an act of utmost kindness, and Ye Sheng had no desire to involve himself in their personal grudges.

When He Sankui, Dong Tiangong, and the others noticed Ye Sheng’s gaze sweeping over them, their expressions tightened, but they immediately forced out smiles that looked even uglier than crying. It was clear they were trying to curry favor with Ye Sheng.

To their relief, Ye Sheng withdrew his gaze after a brief glance and made no move against them.

Seeing this, Dong Tiangong, He Sankui, and the others let out long sighs of relief, knowing their wretched lives were spared.

Huang Wenyue felt a twinge of disappointment but quickly wore a smile on his face.

It was already a stroke of luck that Ye Sheng had stepped in to save him. Asking Ye Sheng to help settle his grudges would be pushing it too far.

“As long as I survive, that’s enough. I’ll deal with these people slowly later!” Huang Wenyue was brimming with confidence. His gains in Ghostfire City this time were substantial. If he fully absorbed them, his Combat Power could Increase to 800 times its current level. Settling the score then would be timely enough.

Below, the crowd erupted into murmurs, with many gasping in astonishment.

“This one is actually a Giant Level powerhouse!”

“Can anyone tell me which Giant Level powerhouse this is?” someone asked with admiration.

No one had expected a Giant Level powerhouse to appear!

In the Yin City Secret Realm 3rd Transformation Zone, there were fewer than twenty Giant Level powerhouses, each standing at the pinnacle of the pyramid.

Whenever one of them appeared, it drew widespread attention.

“Wait, this Giant Level powerhouse looks unfamiliar to me. I’ve never seen him before,” an Elder suddenly said with a serious expression.

“What? You haven’t seen him? How is that possible?!” someone nearby exclaimed in surprise.

The Elder nodded. “I’m absolutely certain. I’ve been in the Yin City Secret Realm for many years and have met almost all twenty of those Giant Level powerhouses, but this one isn’t among them!”

“What? Are you saying this is a new Giant Level powerhouse? This one isn’t among the twenty?”

Many were shaken!

Not everyone had seen the twenty Giant Level powerhouses; most had only heard of their existence.

If they were to meet face-to-face, it would be difficult to identify them unless they revealed their aura.

“Exactly!” the Elder affirmed emphatically, his eyes now filled with fear.

Someone whispered in a suppressed tone, “If that’s truly the case, then… the Yin City Secret Realm is about to undergo a major upheaval!”

Everyone fell silent, realizing that something monumental was about to happen.

They all understood that the emergence of a new Giant Level powerhouse often heralded a storm of bloodshed.

The pie was only so big, and it had long been divided among the twenty existing Giant Level powerhouses.

For a new Giant Level powerhouse to claim a share, a fierce battle was inevitable!

“Better not think about the future for now—there’s a crisis right before our eyes. This Giant Level expert killed Jiang Wentao, and who is Jiang Wentao? A member of the Jiang Family. Will the Boundless Giant let this go?

A great battle might be imminent!”

“That’s right! Jiang Wentao is dead!” someone exclaimed in realization.

“And he was killed right in front of the Boundless Giant—no face was spared at all!”

“The Boundless Giant won’t let this go!”

The crowd grew noisy, all realizing this matter wouldn’t end here.

Jiang Wentao being slain in the Boundless Ghost Market was a major event.

The Boundless Giant was sure to make a statement.

In the tavern, people gathered by the windows, looking outside.

At a table by one window, Duan Hongde and the others stared out, mouths agape, their jaws nearly dropping in shock.

“Little friend Ye… is a Giant Level?!” Duan Hongde was stunned, his heart churning like turbulent waves.

He never expected that the person he had been interacting with all along would be a Giant Level expert.

Previously, he had only regarded Ye Sheng as a talented young prodigy, even foolishly worrying about his safety.

He had even considered recruiting Ye Sheng as a live-in son-in-law for the Duan Family! Looking back now, it was nothing short of a joke!

How could his small Duan Family ever accommodate such a great figure?

“Xiaojia, your grandfather nearly caused a great catastrophe!” Duan Hongde looked at his granddaughter Duan Xiaojia, swallowing hard, his eyes filled with lingering fear.

It was only because Ye Sheng had a good temper. If it had been a Giant Level expert with a worse disposition, hearing his proposal to recruit a son-in-law might have provoked immediate fury, crushing him to death on the spot. How could he have survived until now?

“Grandfather!” Duan Xiaojia’s pupils trembled violently as she looked out the window at the figure in white robes high in the sky, a hint of inferiority surfacing in her eyes.

Indeed, with her status, how could she ever be worthy of him?

The gap between them was too vast!

Even the entire Duan Group wouldn’t be enough!

Compared to the shock of these two, Xu Mentu’s forehead was now covered in dense beads of sweat. His face had turned pale, and he was trembling with fear inside.

He, too, never expected Ye Sheng to be a Giant Level expert.

Crack!

Xu Mentu’s hand trembled, and the teacup he was holding slipped, accidentally falling to the ground and shattering into pieces.

“Father!”

The noise startled Xu Xiao’an, whose face turned pale. He trembled and looked at his father.

He was equally terrified!

He had actually become a love rival to a Giant Level expert! Wasn’t this a joke? It was practically asking for death!

“It’s fine!” Xu Mentu forced a smile. “We’re just ants—this one won’t bother with us!”

He forced a smile to comfort himself, while also carefully recalling whether he had said anything inappropriate before.

After a moment, he felt somewhat relieved. He had been relatively restrained, at most a bit sarcastic. Although he had harbored some malicious thoughts, fortunately, he hadn’t had the chance to act on them.

If he had, Xu Mentu feared he would have ended up with no place to bury his corpse.

“Look, there’s movement in the sky!”

In the tavern, someone pointed out the window and shouted, drawing everyone’s attention outside.

Xu Mentu and the others also looked up.

…

In the sky.

The two thousand experts of the Boundless Ghost Market stood suspended awkwardly.

They looked at Ye Sheng, unsure whether to be angry or amused, momentarily at a loss for what to do.

To provoke the wrath of a Giant Level figure was a courage they did not possess, so they could only wait, awaiting the response of the Boundless Giant.

Whoosh!

At that moment, a figure soared upward from the Ghost Market below.

It was an Elder, not the Boundless Giant.

Upon reaching the sky and seeing Ye Sheng, the Elder did something entirely unexpected—he smiled and clasped his hands in greeting, saying, “Senior, the Boundless Giant requests your presence.”
