"Hey, brother, your chick is quite good-looking, tsk tsk, why don't you lend her to us for a bit?"
Six or seven men, staggering drunk, surrounded them. A guy with a buzz cut and dyed blond hair whistled and sneered.
"Hahaha!"
As soon as the blond guy spoke, his companions burst into laughter and egged him on.
"Yeah, brother, lend us your chick to play with. If we have enough fun, we'll protect this area for you from now on!"
A scrawny man with sharp features and a floral tattoo on his arm chimed in, his eyes fixated on Yun Chuxue, almost popping out of his head.
Yun Chuxue's eyes filled with disgust. Fortunately, Ye Kunlun was by her side, so she wasn't afraid. Even without Ye Kunlun, with her Grandmaster cultivation, dealing with these petty thugs would be as easy as pie!
Ye Kunlun's gaze turned cold. These thugs were practically asking for death!
"Brother, why aren't you saying anything?" The blond guy grinned when Ye Kunlun remained silent. "If you don't speak, we'll take it as your consent."
With that, he reached out to touch Yun Chuxue's face.
"You're seeking death!!"
The moment the blond guy's hand moved, Ye Kunlun delivered a swift kick.
*Crack—*
Ye Kunlun's kick shattered the blond guy's sternum and ribs!
The blond guy let out a scream and rolled eight or nine meters away, his body feeling as if it had fallen apart.
"Ahhh, kill him for me, kill him for me..."
"Holy cow!"
"Brothers, charge!"
Someone yelled, and the rest rushed forward, kicking and punching at Ye Kunlun.
"A bunch of clueless fools!"
Ye Kunlun's face was cold as he let out a soft hum. His aura erupted, and before the thugs could even get close, they were sent flying, exploding into bloody mist mid-air!
Leaving behind bodies would only create unnecessary trouble.
They dared to offend Yun Chuxue, and that meant death! Even the slightest, most insignificant offense from them would result in their instant disappearance from this world!
The blond guy watched his brothers explode into bloody mist like balloons, scattering in the wind. Enduring the pain, he scrambled away in fear.
Ye Kunlun, holding Yun Chuxue's hand, walked towards the blond guy.
"Ahhh, demon, you, you don't come any closer!" The blond guy's spirit was broken by Ye Kunlun, and he soiled himself.
"Next life, keep your eyes open!"
With that, the blond guy followed his brothers' fate.
Yun Chuxue's face was a little pale. Several living people had vanished before her eyes in the blink of an eye.
"Do you think I'm too cruel?" Ye Kunlun turned to look at the pale Yun Chuxue and asked. He had deliberately let her witness the scene.
"It is indeed a bit cruel," Yun Chuxue did not hide her true thoughts.
Ye Kunlun smiled faintly and whispered to Yun Chuxue, "These people had been tailing us since we left the Wujian Prison."
Yun Chuxue stiffened.
"You mean they were sent by your enemies?" Yun Chuxue's heart tightened.
"Perhaps," Ye Kunlun replied casually. "None of that matters. You just need to remember, regardless of their intentions, if they offend you, the outcome is death!"
"The dignity of the strong cannot be violated. If they dare to harass you, they dare to harass other women without scruples, and behind it all might be endless evil."
"However, this time, they were unlucky enough to run into a tough opponent!"
Ye Kunlun hoped that through the incident, Yun Chuxue would understand: the strong are not to be insulted; those who insult them die! As for who sent them, he didn't care. He had killed Grandmasters, those in the Kai Ling and Zhuji realms, and several in the Yun Ling realm! Why bother with a few ants who were secretly tracking them and had offended Yun Chuxue?
"Do you understand?"
Seeing Yun Chuxue's delicate brows furrowed, Ye Kunlun reached out to smooth her brow and asked with a smile.
"I understand somewhat, but perhaps my heart hasn't quite accepted it yet," Yun Chuxue sighed.
"That's normal, because you grew up in the world of ordinary people," Ye Kunlun said patiently, holding her hand. "If you had grown up in darkness as an assassin, you would find what just happened to be the most normal thing."
"Mhm, I understand your reasoning," Yun Chuxue nodded. "I'm much better now than I was at the beginning."
"Besides, I am your woman, Ye Kunlun. I need to keep up with you."
Yun Chuxue gazed at Ye Kunlun tenderly, knowing that only by striving to keep pace with him would she be worthy of standing by his side.
Ye Kunlun smiled and gently flicked her nose. "Then tonight, when we get back, you'll have to keep working hard."
Hearing this, Yun Chuxue's cheeks flushed again. She naturally understood what Ye Kunlun meant. Every time they were intimate, his power would be released into her body. Simultaneously, her cultivation would skyrocket, as if a floodgate had opened, without any bottlenecks.
They chatted and laughed as they walked towards the Drum Tower.
At this moment.
In a private room on the fourth floor, Qin Chenghe's face was as grim as it could be. He hadn't expected Ye Kunlun to be so ruthless. He had indeed sent those thugs, but he hadn't expected Ye Kunlun to kill them all!
"It really is him!"
Of course, Qin Chenghe was now 100% certain of Ye Kunlun's identity as the King of Shanhe who had shaken the entire capital. Qin Chenghe took a deep breath, realizing that sending anyone else to follow Ye Kunlun was likely impossible.
"This person's cultivation is truly terrifying; no wonder he killed the elders of the Changsun family and the people from the Biluo Sect!" Qin Chenghe felt fortunate that he hadn't shown himself, otherwise, with Ye Kunlun's murderous nature, he wouldn't have gained any advantage.
After some thought, a cold glint appeared in Qin Chenghe's eyes. "He values that woman so highly; she must be his weakness."
Qin Chenghe pondered for a moment, a complete plan forming in his mind. He had to devise a plan to control Ye Kunlun before Black Mountain King returned. As Black Mountain King's deputy, he had secretly handled countless matters for him over the years. Therefore, Qin Chenghe allowed himself only success and absolutely no failures! Although Ye Kunlun had turned the entire capital upside down, he believed in his own abilities. Sometimes, brute force was invincible, but at other times, brute force was definitely not the optimal solution to a problem!
"In that case, I'll start with her."
Then, Qin Chenghe stood up, put on his hat and mask, left Tingfeng Xiaozhu, and got into a black car, driving into the night towards the direction of the North Mountain King's mansion.
Not long after Qin Chenghe left, a figure shadowed him. It was a petite figure moving at extreme speed. Sharp eyes locked onto Qin Chenghe's car. It was Wu Lingxiang, who had returned to the capital with Yun Chuxue.
