Chapter 92: A Heart Set on Death
Li Tailai, being a person of some stature, was provoked by Yu Jinghai’s words to the point of fury, saying, “What do you mean?”
“Mr. Li, let me deal with him!”
Guo Ming said in a deep voice, stepping forward to admonish, “If you dare to obstruct me again, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
Seeing Guo Ming about to take action, the crowd erupted in cheers.
“Master Guo, let this foul Taoist from Zhudao City taste the power of our Yuecheng masters.”
“An outsider actually wants to unify the metaphysical world of Yuecheng? What a delusional dream.”
“Beat him back; Yuecheng won’t tolerate his rampage.”
However, Yu Jinghai merely smiled coldly and said, “If you’re not convinced, feel free to try!”
Guo Ming, furious, threw a punch at Yu Jinghai. This punch was powerful, clearly indicating that Guo Ming was no ordinary person.
“Just you?” The crowd barely saw a flash before Yu Jinghai had already moved in front of Guo Ming, swiftly slapping a yellow talisman onto his forehead.
“Such quick footwork,” Song Wanting exclaimed in surprise.
Guo Ming, as if struck by a paralysis spell, became completely stiff, his eyes darting in panic.
Yu Jinghai remained calm and composed, smiling slightly before suddenly shouting, “Get down!”
“Thud!”
Guo Ming, as if responding to a command, immediately dropped to the ground on all fours.
“Master Guo!” Li Tailai gasped in shock, exclaiming in alarm.
The surrounding crowd exchanged glances, all stunned into silence.
With just this one move, Guo Ming had no chance to resist; how powerful was this!
Guo Ming lay on the ground, furious to the extreme, but his body was completely unresponsive. He angrily shouted, “Old dog! What kind of sorcery is this?”
“With your little skills, you still dare to challenge me?” Master Yu scoffed derisively, then suddenly commanded, “Bark like a dog!”
Guo Ming was horrified and quickly tried to close his mouth.
But his mouth wouldn’t obey, and he couldn’t control the dry “woof woof” sounds that escaped from his lips.
Li Tailai was taken aback, nearly stumbling.
Guo Ming, over sixty years old, was now lying like a dog in front of Master Yu, mumbling incoherently as he imitated a dog’s bark.
It was a comical scene, yet the atmosphere was dead silent.
The crowd watched in fear, a chill running down their spines.
In less than ten minutes, Yu Jinghai had defeated two masters; how formidable was that?
“Puppet technique, this is the long-lost Hu Xi puppet technique!” Bao Fugui murmured, his face filled with shock.
As soon as he finished speaking, the hall erupted with gasps of astonishment.
The puppet technique originated from Hu Xi and was originally a secret art passed down by corpse drivers, but it had long been lost.
They never expected to witness it firsthand, which was enough to demonstrate that Yu Jinghai’s skills were profound and unfathomable, far beyond anyone present!
Guo Ming remained on the ground, his face burning with embarrassment, but he couldn’t control himself, even wishing for death.
Yu Jinghai waved his hand, and Guo Ming immediately went limp, collapsing on the ground, utterly humiliated.
“Well, Master Guo, do you concede?” Wang Zhenggang laughed heartily.
Guo Ming gritted his teeth, blood seeping from between them, and bitterly murmured, “I… concede…”
Seeing Guo Ming actually bowing in defeat, the entire courtyard fell silent, no one daring to speak.
Then, Yu Jinghai turned to Ye Chen and said, “On that day, you stole my conch treasure; today, witnessing my supernatural skills, do you still dare to be arrogant?”
Ye Chen shrugged and replied, “With your little tricks, you call that supernatural skills?”
Song Wanting quickly pulled Ye Chen aside, whispering, “You should back down now; Yu Jinghai does have some skills. Don’t let your pride cost you your life.”
Yu Jinghai sneered and said, “Young and ignorant, I ask you, do you dare to compete with me? If you lose, return the conch and kneel to apologize!”
Ye Chen smiled indifferently and said, “Compete? What are you? You think you’re worthy of my effort?”
The crowd’s expressions changed dramatically; this kid actually dared to speak so arrogantly! Did he want to die?
In the silent courtyard, there was a palpable tension.
Song Wanting stood up in shock; with those words, this matter could not end well…
Yu Jinghai, enraged to the point of laughter, stepped closer to Ye Chen and said, “In my life, I have seen many people, but none like you, who deliberately seek death.”
Ye Chen smiled and replied, “Who lives and who dies is still uncertain.”
Yu Jinghai’s killing intent surged, his gaze turning icy as he prepared to strike.
At that moment, a group of people suddenly burst in from outside, exuding a fierce aura.
Leading them was Qin Aodong, who immediately spotted Ye Chen and shouted, “Ye Chen, you charlatan, pretending to be a god and deceiving my uncle! You swindled our family’s money to flaunt at the auction, and luckily Master Yu saw through your tricks! Hand over the money now, or my Qin family won’t spare you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Gang and Qin Aoxue entered behind him. Hearing Qin Aodong’s harsh reprimand, they realized it was too late to stop him, feeling quite awkward.
Ye Chen glanced at him indifferently, saying nothing.
But that glance sent chills down Qin Gang’s spine, filling him with fear. He quickly scolded Qin Aodong and nervously explained to Ye Chen, “Master Ye, the situation is like this…”
Qin Gang, not daring to hide anything, recounted the events.
After listening, Ye Chen merely frowned slightly and coldly said, “Just over a hundred million. If you regret it, I can return the money at any time.”
“Oh, Master Ye, please don’t say that! How could I dare to ask for a refund from you? I came today because I, Qin, have long admired the reputation of you masters and wanted to witness it.”
Qin Gang was now unsure whether Ye Chen was truly capable or just a big con artist, but being a clever man, he decided not to confront Ye Chen immediately.
Though he praised Ye Chen verbally, he hesitated internally, thinking that if Ye Chen showed any flaws in front of Yu Jinghai, he wouldn’t hold back and would demand all his money back with interest.
Thus, he said to Ye Chen and the others with a forced smile, “I won’t disturb your competition any longer; we can discuss this later. You all focus on your important matters first, don’t mind me.”
Qin Aodong was furious and wanted to speak, but Qin Gang shot him a fierce glare, silencing him.
Seeing this, Yu Jinghai laughed heartily at Qin Gang and said, “You came at the right time. I know your Qin family has been troubled lately, and Ye Chen has performed rituals for your family. Today, I will compete with him and thoroughly resolve your family’s troubles! Ye Chen, if you dare not compete with me, not only will you die today, but I will also use my skills to wipe out your entire family afterward!”
Ye Chen frowned and coldly replied, “Since you seek death so eagerly, then let it be as you wish.”
