Chapter 1357: Chapter 1357: Get Lost! (Part 2)
Ye Haochuan’s strike caused Zhu Chengzhou’s face to fall completely. Despite being an expert at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, he failed twice to stop Ye Haochuan.
Thinking about this, he couldn’t help but blush, quickly flashing to catch Yang Quan’s body and carefully inspecting it.
Fortunately, Ye Haochuan was already an arrow at the end of its flight. His punch was disrupted earlier, so it wasn’t too heavy.
Nevertheless, Yang Quan still vomited several mouthfuls of blood.
At this moment, when he looked at Ye Haochuan, his eyes were filled with terror, as if the person in front of him was a Reaper sent by Hell to harvest him.
At this moment, he even felt that even if his grandfather Yang Sen were here, Ye Haochuan would still kill him.
"Don’t kill me, don’t kill me!" He was completely terrified, kneeling on the ground, praying to Ye Haochuan, "I was wrong, I will never trouble you again in the future. Please, don’t kill me!"
Zhu Chengzhou glanced at Yang Quan disdainfully before turning to Ye Haochuan and saying, "You’ve hit him, and now he has admitted his mistake. Let today’s matter end here."
Ye Haochuan had already squeezed his strength to the limit. If an ordinary person were in his state, they would have fallen long ago. However, Ye Haochuan stood his ground through sheer willpower.
Although weak, the residual energy from the deafening battle state was still there, and no one dared to underestimate him.
"If I had arrived a moment later today, how would the consequences be calculated? Is such enmity resolved with just an apology?" Ye Haochuan asked angrily.
His anger was justified; family had always been his Achilles’ heel. Today, he arrived just in time, and Su Yingxue nearly lost her life. If he had been a step late, the consequences would be unimaginable.
This was why he was so furious today. In his heart, there was a deep fear that such an event might happen again.
"I was wrong, I really was wrong! I won’t dare anymore, I’ll kowtow..." At this time, Yang Quan had completely lost the demeanor of the Yang Family’s young master; besides begging for mercy, he seemed incapable of anything else.
The surrounding crowd shook their heads; Yang Quan was completely broken in spirit. From now on, even just seeing Ye Haochuan from afar might terrify him to the point his legs give out.
No matter how gifted a person is, without courage, they will remain a waste. Yang Quan’s life was essentially over.
"Haochuan, believe that today’s lesson has been learned by him, you should let him go this time!" Long Xiaotian timely said.
Saying this, he whispered in Ye Haochuan’s ear, "No matter what, he is Yang Sen’s grandson. If you really kill him, the Yang Family will certainly be furious. Whether for you or for the current situation against the Evil Sect, it is very unfavorable!"
Ye Haochuan hadn’t thought much about the situation against the Evil Sect. He was not noble enough to forgive his enemy for the greater good.
However, given his current state, it was almost impossible for him to bypass Zhu Chengzhou again to attack and kill Yang Quan.
Moreover, the Yang Family is the Yang Family; with his current power, he couldn’t match them. He could face death without fear, but he didn’t want his mother and his women to suffer with him.
Ye Haochuan finally calmed down a bit, coldly staring at Yang Quan, and said, "Get lost! If I see you again, I will skin and thrash you!"
"I’ll get lost, I’ll get lost..." Yang Quan muttered a few words, as if pardoned, rapidly fleeing the place, as if it were Asura Hell and staying even a second more was unbearable torture.
Just as Yang Quan’s figure disappeared, Ye Haochuan’s legs suddenly weakened. If Long Xiaotian hadn’t supported him promptly, he would have fallen.
"Son, are you alright, son?" Tong Xiangxiu rushed over instantly, her eyes filled with tears as she asked.
The fierce battle earlier prevented her, as a mere mortal, from getting close or seeing clearly. She only knew Ye Haochuan held the advantage but was unaware of his impending collapse.
It wasn’t until Ye Haochuan fell that she cried out and came over.
"Don’t worry, he’s just over-exhausted, no risk to his life." Long Xiaotian comforted.
Having said that, he tossed a few healing pills into Ye Haochuan’s mouth.
"He has no strength left, quickly grab him!" Long Wei seemed to wake up from a dream, called urgently.
The others looked at him like he was an idiot; wanting to retaliate against Ye Haochuan given the situation now, this Long Wei truly had a narrow-minded spirit.
Finally, Zhu Chengzhou spoke, "Although Ye Haochuan violated Xuanmen’s regulations by unleashing a wide-range perception, it was due to his urgency to save his mother, somewhat understandable. As for killing a fellow disciple, those killed had committed wrongdoings first, and Ye Haochuan, in a moment of urgency, wrongfully killed them, which isn’t a grave mistake!"
"Chief, you..."
Long Wei was still dissatisfied, but Zhu Chengzhou clearly didn’t want him to continue, saying in a deep voice, "Enough, let’s end this matter here. Long House Holder, you don’t want to give the elder some respect?"
"I dare not, I dare not..." Long Wei was startled, quickly agreeing submissively.
In front of Zhu Chengzhou, who was at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, he was merely a Junior Cultivator at Core Formation Late Stage, how could he have the qualifications to deny face?
Seeing Zhu Chengzhou defending him, Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but cast a grateful look at him.
Zhu Chengzhou smiled, nodded, and turned away. The others also smiled and nodded at Ye Haochuan before leaving with him.
Ye Haochuan’s performance today could be described as stunning. Such a rising star, they naturally hoped for him to be a friend rather than an enemy.
Of course, there were exceptions.
Long Wei, as he was leaving, didn’t forget to throw a venomous glance at Ye Haochuan.
In response, Ye Haochuan returned a cold laugh. People like Long Wei, now were not enough to be his opponent. If Long Wei dared to trouble him again, he wouldn’t mind dispatching him without a second thought.
After everyone left, Ye Haochuan sat quietly for two hours before finally regaining a bit of strength.
"Be more cautious in the future; Yang Quan, after all, is a person of the Yang Family. Suffering such a loss, he might engage in some petty tricks." Long Xiaotian reminded.
"Fight to resist, flood to block. If the Yang Family truly wants to go all out against me, I’ll sacrifice this skin anyway to tear a piece off them!" Ye Haochuan smirked.
Hearing this, Long Xiaotian cast a look of surprise at Ye Haochuan. Having known Ye Haochuan for some time, he always felt Ye Haochuan was a slippery one. Unexpectedly, when Ye Haochuan toughened up, he showed no fear.
...
At the Long Family in the Imperial Capital, just as Long Wei arrived home, Long Kaize "hurriedly" found him, reporting on the jewelry store incident.
That he only reported it now was because Long Kaize had spent considerable effort to craft a reasonable and flawless story, which delayed him.
"You mean it was Ye Haochuan who hijacked our cosmetics company?" Hearing Long Kaize’s report, Long Wei frowned.
"Yes, it’s Ye Haochuan. This guy is weird; previously our intel said he was Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage, but two months later, he had reached Core Formation. We underestimated him and fell for his trick. I dare ask the House Holder to take action, we must teach this guy a lesson!"
"This..." Long Wei’s face showed embarrassment, what a joke, he was just beaten by Ye Haochuan, asking him to go against Ye Haochuan was absurd.
But how could he tell such embarrassing matters to his subordinate? After a moment of thought, he said, "For a mere Ye Haochuan, why should the elder personally act? Besides, our Long Family is reasonable; it’s too domineering to always solve everything through combat."
