Chapter 95: Commanding the Multitude!
Just moments ago, everyone was fiercely competing against each other, but now they all longed for Ye Chen to command the entire Jinling, and even the entire metaphysical community in the South Guang region, with no one dissenting; they were all completely convinced by Ye Chen.
They had never seen anyone like Ye Chen, a divine being who could summon heavenly thunder with just a word!
This was the realm of metaphysics, an unimaginable level of supernatural power!
Just look at the charred body of Yu Jinghai on the ground, and one could tell that Ye Chen’s strength was already unfathomable. Having such a person command them not only made everyone obedient but also made them eager to receive Ye Chen’s guidance.
Ye Chen frowned slightly and said to the crowd, “I am not a person of metaphysics; I usually have no research on feng shui or Taoist methods, and I have no interest in metaphysics. From now on, let Bao Fugui handle matters on your side.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the people present were stunned, their mouths agape.
The heavenly thunder just now had already shocked everyone, and Master Ye actually claimed he had no interest in feng shui metaphysics? Moreover, he wasn’t even a person of metaphysics?
Was this merely a fleeting interest, casually summoning a few bolts of heavenly thunder for fun?
Impressive!
Truly impressive!
The crowd fell silent, exchanging glances with one another.
Bao Fugui hesitated and glanced at Ye Chen, respectfully saying, “It is an honor to relieve Master Ye’s worries! I hope all friends will take care of us in the future. We will handle minor matters ourselves, and for major issues, we will seek Master Ye’s advice.”
The heavy atmosphere lightened considerably. Li Tailai, the richest man in Haicheng, immediately stepped forward and said respectfully, “I, Li, thank Master Ye for his intervention and am willing to offer an 80 million check as a token of respect!”
Guo Ming also stepped forward, feeling ashamed as he clasped his hands and said, “Thank you, Master Ye, for eliminating the threat! In the future, I, Guo, am willing to heed any orders from the Supreme of South Guang!”
“Willing to heed orders!”
Seeing these two step forward to flatter Ye Chen, the crowd immediately followed suit, eager to curry favor with him. Some wanted to invite him to dinner, some pledged their loyalty, and others offered gifts and money, surrounding him tightly.
Bao Fugui continued, “Today’s banquet was sponsored by the Wang family with 150 million, originally intended as a prize for each victor. Now that Master Ye is first, this prize naturally goes to Master Ye.”
Wang Zhenggang was still kneeling on the ground, afraid to get up, his forehead bruised from bowing. He quickly flattered, “Master Ye, it was my ignorance that almost harmed the heroes of South Guang. Please forgive me!”
Ye Chen frowned and coldly said, “Wang Zhenggang, weren’t you quite trusting of that Yu Jinghai before?”
Wang Zhenggang hurriedly bowed his head and said, “Master Ye, I was completely deceived by that Yu Jinghai! Now I realize that in front of Master Ye, he is nothing but a bug. From now on, I will definitely keep my eyes open and honor Master Ye as my superior for life!”
After saying that, Wang Zhenggang added, “Master Ye, to express my heartfelt apology, I am willing to gift you a villa. Once I send someone to clean it up, I will deliver the keys to you. I hope Master Ye can forgive my offense!”
A villa?
Ye Chen frowned slightly.
For his status, a villa was nothing significant.
However, if he were to buy one himself, it would be inappropriate, as he couldn’t explain the source of the funds to his wife.
But if someone wanted to gift him a villa, why should he be polite?
After all, his family was still living in their old house, and they indeed needed a better environment.
As for Wang Zhenggang, he was indeed a bit despicable, but considering his sincere attitude of repentance, he didn’t deserve death.
Thus, Ye Chen nodded and said, “You have a good heart. Let’s leave it at that. If you offend me again in the future, I won’t be so easy to talk to!”
Wang Zhenggang was overjoyed and quickly bowed in thanks, “Thank you, Master Ye, for your mercy! I will definitely reflect seriously and will not let it happen again!”
“Mm.” Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he looked at Qin Gang, who was beside him, his face filled with terror.
He asked lightly, “Qin Gang, does your Qin family think that I, Ye Chen, have deceived you out of your money?”
Qin Gang’s legs went weak, and he fell to his knees with a thud, terrified as he said, “I dare not! I was just momentarily confused and had some doubts about Master Ye. Now I am completely convinced that Master Ye is the true master of metaphysics. Please, Master Ye, show mercy!”
After saying that, he grabbed the terrified Qin Aodong and shouted angrily, “You scoundrel, kneel down!”
Qin Aodong was already trembling in fear, and upon Qin Gang’s shout, he immediately knelt down, stammering, “Master Ye, I was wrong! Please forgive me; I truly did not mean to doubt you!”
Qin Gang slapped him hard, followed by another slap, and continued to slap him repeatedly, leaving Qin Aodong’s face swollen like a pig’s head.
Qin Aodong dared not move, kneeling on the ground and sobbing. At this moment, being beaten was nothing compared to his fear that Ye Chen would treat him like Yu Jinghai and summon a bolt of heavenly thunder to strike him dead…
Beside him, Qin Aoxue’s beautiful face was also pale with fear.
She never imagined that Ye Chen was truly such a powerful master with extraordinary abilities.
Initially, she felt some anger towards Ye Chen, thinking she would find an opportunity to take revenge on this scoundrel for that kick, but now it seemed that he was so powerful that she could only worship him!
She was afraid that Ye Chen would unleash his anger on her brother, Qin Aodong, and hurriedly knelt down, pleading, “Master Ye, my brother is still young and doesn’t understand. Please forgive him this once.”
Seeing the three members of the Qin family kneeling before him, Ye Chen said indifferently, “Considering your good attitude in admitting your mistakes, I will let this matter rest for now. But if similar incidents occur in the future, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
Upon hearing this, the three members of the Qin family felt as if they had received a great pardon and hurriedly bowed in thanks.
Song Wanting stood outside the crowd, watching this scene unfold, her emotions stirred and her heart filled with mixed feelings.
Before today, she had always thought that Ye Chen only had some knowledge of antiques, but came from an ordinary background and was not a significant figure.
But she never expected that he was hiding his true strength!
This scene truly left Song Wanting speechless; she had never witnessed such a spectacle in her life.
At this moment, Ye Chen stepped up, looking down at the crowd, and coldly said, “Listen to me!”
As soon as he spoke, everyone immediately looked up at Ye Chen, their faces filled with utmost respect, not daring to make a sound.
Ye Chen scanned the crowd and sternly commanded, “Regarding today’s events, apart from this door, no one is allowed to mention it to the outside world. Otherwise, I will make them experience the same fate as Yu Jinghai!”
The crowd’s expressions stiffened; it seemed Master Ye did not want his identity and strength to be revealed!
Truly a master of extreme humility!
Unlike that boastful Yu Jinghai, who, with a bit of superficial skill, went around showing off.
Compared to Master Ye, he was utterly worthless! He deserved to die!
Thus, everyone clasped their fists and bowed, “We will strictly follow Master Ye’s orders!”
At this moment, Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction and said, “In that case, everyone can disperse now!”
