"Oh really? I think you're giving yourself too much credit. Since even the heavens are on my side, it won't be that easy for you to take down, will it?"
Right now, Ye Tian looked him straight in the eye, while Huang Dingtian couldn't understand why this kid still wasn't afraid.
"Kid, why do I feel like there's sothing off about you? You're clearly at death's door, yet you don't seem the least bit scared. Why is that?"
Ye Tian just chuckled and replied, "Is that so? Are you so sure I'm at death's door? That's just your own wishful thinking. If you're here now trying to take on, then co at !"
"Fine! I didn't kill you just now, but this ti, I definitely will!"
Huang Dingtian charged straight toward Ye Tian, more cautious than before—he couldn't afford another mistake.
"If I don't teach you a lesson, you'll forget who I am!"
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian appeared at his side and punched him hard in the abdon.
"What the—?!"
Huang Dingtian hadn't even had ti to react before he was sent flying. It was Ye Tian who had landed that blow.
Even as he hit the ground, he couldn't believe it—Ye Tian had punched him? That was impossible. The kid looked so young. How could he have enough strength to send him flying?
"No way. That's absolutely impossible!"
"I know it seems impossible to you—unbelievable, even. But I'm here to tell you that's the truth. Chen Tiequan sent you to deal with , but did he ever tell you what my strength was?"
"He didn't say."
"He didn't? Couldn't you investigate? Coming to kill soone like without doing your howork—you really don't know how you're going to die."
At this mont, Huang Dingtian finally realized he'd ssed with soone he shouldn't have. This guy was clearly a powerhouse. If Chen Tiequan sent him here, wasn't that basically sending him to die?
But now, regret was too late. He looked at Ye Tian and said, "Sir, I was blind and failed to recognize your greatness. Please, be magnanimous and spare !"
"You want to let you go? You think I'm that easy to deal with? You ask and I just say yes?"
Ye Tian gave a calm smile. "Hmm, but thinking about it, this whole thing was orchestrated by Chen Tiequan. You were just the guy he sent. If I keep blaming you, then maybe I'm the one being unreasonable."
"Yes, exactly! It was all Chen Tiequan. If you want revenge, go after him!"
It seed he had a point. This really did co back to Chen Tiequan. Huang Dingtian was just a pawn. The real problem was Chen Tiequan.
"Huang Dingtian, right?"
"Yes."
"I'll let you go—but only if you agree to one condition. If you agree, I'll let you live. If not, I won't."
"Na it. As long as it's sothing I can do, I'll do it."
Ye Tian took out a pill and tossed it to him. "Swallow this first."
"What is it?"
"Cut the nonsense. Didn't I say not to ask questions? Just take it."
"Yes."
He didn't dare disobey Ye Tian, so he swallowed the pill right away. Afterward, he asked, "Can I know what it was now?"
"Sure. That pill you just took is a type of Gu poison. From this mont on, you'll follow my orders. If you don't, I can take your life at any ti."
"What?!"
"What, afraid now? Relax. As long as you obey , you don't need to be afraid. I won't harm you—if you listen."
"Alright. Whatever you tell to do, I'll do. From now on, you're my master."
"Master? That won't be necessary. Just do as I say. By the way—have you ever heard of the Journey to the West world?"
"The Journey to the West world?"
"Yeah."
"I think I've heard of it in old legends and stories."
Hearing that, Ye Tian continued, "What I an is—how do we get to the Journey to the West world?"
"To the Journey to the West world?"
Huang Dingtian started to wonder if Ye Tian was crazy—or was he just ssing with him? "I… I don't know how to get there."
"You don't?"
"No. Why do you ask?"
Ye Tian replied, "Never mind that for now. Forget the Journey to the West. First, take to Chen Tiequan. I've got a score to settle with him."
"Yes, I'll take you to him right away."
He had no choice now but to obey. So he led Ye Tian straight to Chen Tiequan. Before long, they arrived.
"Chen Tiequan, I already spared you once. I didn't expect you to still be so unrepentant."
"You… Ye Tian!"
Chen Tiequan gritted his teeth at the sight of Ye Tian. But then he looked at Huang Dingtian and asked, "Huang Dingtian, why did you bring him here?!"
"I brought him because I want to live! If I hadn't brought him, he'd have killed ! And you—you knew how strong he was and didn't tell . Do you know how close that ca to getting killed?!"
"Killed? Are you saying you couldn't beat him?"
When Chen Tiequan had hired Huang Dingtian, he truly didn't know he would be no match for Ye Tian. Only now did he realize—not even a top-tier assassin like Huang Dingtian could defeat Ye Tian. Who was this man? How terrifying was his strength?
It had already been shocking when Shadow couldn't defeat Ye Tian—that guy wasn't as strong as Huang Dingtian, after all. But now that even Huang Dingtian had failed, how powerful was Ye Tian really?
Chen Tiequan felt his mind reeling. Now that Ye Tian had co all the way here, it could only an one thing—trouble. What now? He didn't have any real experts on his side.
Huang Dingtian had been brought in specifically to handle Ye Tian. But now, he clearly wasn't on Chen Tiequan's side anymore.
So what could he do?
In desperation, he turned to Huang Dingtian. "Huang Dingtian, I'll give you twenty million. Just help take down Ye Tian. With your skills, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
