Ye Ming’s thoughts, if known to Li Yaozong, would surely cause him to cough up blood in anger.
Li Yaozong had only ant to pressurize Ye Ming, to give him a scare, and yet Ye Ming was already considering how to finish him off in an instant.
Before the threat, Ye Ming was utterly calm as he said, "I’ll return your words to you exactly as they were. It seems that the one who has never experienced a beating is probably you."
"You should know that the person standing behind you is a Grandmaster," Xu Xincheng said coldly. "Do you understand what that ans? Killing you would be as easy as squashing an ant."
Upon hearing this, Ye Ming laughed unrestrainedly.
"What are you laughing at?" Seeing Ye Ming’s deanor, Xu Xincheng frowned and said, "Do you think I wouldn’t dare to touch you? Or do you think I’d be afraid of my sister taking her anger out on ?"
"You needn’t worry about that. There are plenty of n in the world; you’re not the only one."
Ye Ming spoke earnestly, "You’re probably mistaken. I’m not being unrestrained because of my sister’s favor, I just find it laughable that the eminent Xu Family would resort to such ans to threaten . Your thods are simply too crude."
Ye Ming had long since concealed his true strength. In the eyes of Xu Xincheng and Li Yaozong, he was no more than a common man without any ability to fight back. The words he had just spoken were from the standpoint of an ordinary person.
"Foolish man!" Xu Xincheng’s patience had run out. He gave Li Yaozong, who was inside the car, a look, signaling him to take out Ye Ming.
Yet, Li Yaozong hesitated.
From the beginning, he had never intended to kill Ye Ming. Not to ntion that he did not care to use his abilities against a commoner; if he really did kill Ye Ming, Xu Lele would probably bla him.
This kind of loss was not sothing Li Yaozong was willing to risk.
"Young Master Xu, in my opinion, we shouldn’t pay too much attention to such a naless insect," he said.
"In three days, when the underground banquet concludes, Miss Xu will leave with us, returning to the control of the Family Head. No matter how much this junior jumps, it will be useless."
"To kill him would only tarnish the reputation of the Xu Family."
Upon hearing Li Yaozong’s explanation, Xu Xincheng regained his rationality and indeed found it reasonable.
"That’s right, in a few days, once the underground banquet is over, I will take my sister away from Hai City. Even if you possess incredible abilities, you’ll no longer have the chance to see my sister," he said.
"Why should I, a re frog in the bottom of a well, haggle over this with you!"
Having said this, Xu Xincheng gave Ye Ming a glance, turned around, got into the car, and left.
Inside the car, Xu Xincheng did not forget to thank Li Yaozong, saying, "If you hadn’t stopped just now, I might have really killed him!"
"No one has ever dared to speak to with such an attitude."
As part of the privileged elite of Yanjing, Xu Xincheng was a true silver spoon heiress, and people around him had always been extrely respectful, a habit he had beco accustod to.
Just like Li Kai of the Li Family, who behaved like a fawning dog in his presence.
Yet, in front of him, Ye Ming displayed no respect at all, even a sense of disdain, which made Xu Xincheng extrely angry and almost caused him to lose his cool.
Little did he know that Li Yaozong’s advice was just for show. In reality, he had noticed sothing extraordinary about Ye Ming.
A normal person, when faced with the pressure of a Grandmaster, would have long been scared to death, unable to even stand.
But not only did Ye Ming show no fear, he wasn’t affected at all.
Thus, either Ye Ming was a commoner with a remarkably strong spirit, or his abilities were no less than those of a Grandmaster.
Li Yaozong was more inclined to believe the forr, so his opinion of Ye Ming had changed.
Xu Xincheng sighed and changed the subject, "Forget about him for now. I’ve heard that the powers of Hai City are all making preparations for the underground banquet in a few days, hiring troops and buying horses."
"The Chen Family has even spared no expense to hire a hidden expert, who also seems to be a Grandmaster. Uncle Li, what do you think?"
Li Yaozong chuckled, his face carrying a sense of disdain for the common people, and said confidently, "Young Master, to be frank, a small place like Hai City cannot produce any formidable experts."
"Whoever the Chen Family managed to hire is probably just a newcor who has just entered the Grandmaster Realm, while I have already reached the mid-level of the Grandmaster Realm, nothing to be afraid of."
Upon hearing Li Yaozong’s words, Xu Xincheng suddenly felt a surge of confidence.
He said fiercely, "Having been away from Hai City for too many years, it’s feared that these underground powers of Hai City have almost forgotten about the Xu Family. Now that we are here, we must certainly open their eyes!"
...
After Xu Xincheng left, Ye Ming imdiately returned to his ho.
The feeling of defeat he had just experienced made him very uncomfortable, so as soon as he returned to the villa, he locked himself away.
In recent days, the Qin Family had gathered many precious dicinal materials from various places in order to please Ye Ming, who used these to refine dozens of Qi Condensing Pills.
He gave two of them to Lin Bingqing, and used the rest on himself.
He wanted to use this forced growth thod to quickly advance himself until he could instantly kill experts in the Grandmaster Realm before he would stop.
After consuming a large number of Qi Condensing Pills, Ye Ming was surprised to find a reaction within his Dantian.
This sensation was the odd response that ca each ti he made a breakthrough.
Having been at the Mystical Rank for quite so ti, Ye Ming had not felt any movent for a while, so now he naturally seized the opportunity, imdiately sat cross-legged on the bed, entered the right state, and mobilized his Inner True Qi, aiming to break through his bottleneck.
A whole day and night passed, and on the evening of the next day, Ye Ming suddenly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air.
Now, he had reached the mid-level strength of the Mystical Rank.
In the terms of the outside secular world, he was now a peak-level expert of the Grandmaster Realm, the ceiling of the Grandmaster Realm.
"According to my current cultivation, killing Li Yaozong should be a piece of cake!" Ye Ming thought to himself.
He stepped out of his room, only to see Lin Bingqing also just coming out of hers.
Ye Ming noticed that after this day and night, she too had undergone many changes and seed to have reached the strength of a Seventh Rank Martial Artist.
"Master, you..."
Lin Bingqing initially wanted to show off her rapid progress, but after seeing Ye Ming, she was so frightened she couldn’t speak, cold sweat breaking out all over her body, and she dared not look directly at Ye Ming.
"Master, have you entered the Late-stage Grandmaster Realm?" Lin Bingqing asked tremblingly.
After seeing Lin Bingqing’s reaction, Ye Ming realized he had just advanced and forgotten to restrain his power. The overwhelming aura he emitted had scared Lin Bingqing.
He cald his aura and said to Lin Bingqing, "Late-stage Grandmaster doesn’t quite fit. I think I have reached the Peak."
