“Ye Fan, did I let you go?” Chen Jie said calmly.
Ye Fan, who was trying to sneak away, trembled all over at the words.
He said unnaturally, “Chen Jie, that’s enough. I admit you are better than me, but that’s all.”
As he spoke, he was about to leave.
With a *puff*.
Zhou Shu suddenly flicked his finger, and a pellet shot rapidly towards Ye Fan, hitting him squarely in the back of the leg.
“Ah!”
Ye Fan let out a miserable cry and turned back, “Who, who did it?”
“It was me!” Zhou Shu said, “Master Chen didn’t let you go, so you can’t leave!”
“That’s right! Without Master Chen’s permission, no one can take you away today!” Yi Zhentian also said.
Others chimed in, “Why don’t we all help Master Chen kill him?”
“Good, that’s just what I was thinking.”
The others nodded one after another.
Ye Fan was struck as if by lightning. He looked at the few people in disbelief and said, “You are all famous masters in Pingcheng, and you are actually helping Chen Jie deal with me?”
“Even we dare not offend Master Chen. Who do you think you are? You dare to ask us to deal with Master Chen? You want to harm us. Not killing you directly is already showing you mercy!” Zhou Shu said disdainfully.
“What?”
Ye Fan’s heart was filled with disbelief.
Even these masters dared not offend Chen Jie?
“Let me do it!” Zhou Wei said without a second word. He suddenly pulled a dagger from his pocket and, with a *puff*, stabbed it into Ye Fan’s body.
“You…” Ye Fan gritted his teeth against the intense pain and pointed at Zhou Wei.
“What do you mean, ‘you’? Brother Chen wants you dead, so you have to die! Even if the Jade Emperor himself came today, he couldn’t save you!” Zhou Wei sneered and continued his attack.
Why!
Why was everyone helping Chen Jie!
At this moment, Ye Fan was filled with endless regret.
If he hadn’t provoked Chen Jie in the first place, perhaps he wouldn’t have ended up like this.
“If you want to kill me, you will all pay the price!” Ye Fan suddenly raised his phone and shouted, “Dad, save me!”
A powerful male voice came from the phone, “My son, what is wrong?”
“It’s Chen Jie! Wang Xiaoyan’s fiancé, he’s trying to kill me!” Ye Fan said in terror.
“What? Someone dares to touch my Ye Lingtian’s son? Put that Chen Jie on the phone!” a roar came from the phone.
Chen Jie walked over with a cold smile.
He picked up the phone and said, “Do you need something from me?”
“You are Chen Jie?” Ye Lingtian asked.
“That’s right, it’s me,” Chen Jie said calmly.
“Let my son go, and then come to my place with my son and kneel to apologize. I will reluctantly give you one day to run!” Ye Lingtian said in an unquestionable tone.
Chen Jie sneered, “What if I don’t agree?”
“Oh? Why wouldn’t you agree? Go and find out, when has Ye Lingtian ever been so kind to anyone? Young man, don’t give up your only chance of survival.”
Chen Jie said, “Your son harassed my fiancée, and even tried to enlist several masters in Pingcheng to kill me. Am I supposed to let your son go just because you said so?”
“Otherwise? My son fancies your fiancée, which is your honor! My son tried to kill you, and you should feel honored! Kneel and come before me with my son! I won’t say it a second time!”
Chen Jie sneered, “You truly don’t care about your son’s life.”
“You dare! I’ll give you ten times the courage! Do you dare to kill him?” Ye Lingtian roared.
“I’ve changed my mind, I’ll spare your son’s life for now,” Chen Jie said.
“Okay, you will be glad you made this decision!” Ye Lingtian thought Chen Jie had chickened out.
“Now I will make you regret your words for the rest of your life!” Chen Jie sneered.
“What?”
“Listen carefully!”
Chen Jie directly reached out and made a slash. A sharp burst of energy flashed through his hand, slicing across Ye Fan’s legs.
*Puff*.
Ye Fan’s legs were instantly severed.
“Ah!”
Ye Fan let out a piercing scream and trembled as he spoke into the phone, “Dad, my legs are gone! He chopped off my legs!”
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
Chen Jie said calmly, “I want you to watch your son die in agony, unable to do anything! At the same time, I’ll give you three days to escape, because I want you to be in extreme regret for your words within these three days!”
*Crack!*
Chen Jie crushed the phone directly.
Then he looked at Zhou Wei and said, “Take him to the Ye family!”
Zhou Wei said worriedly, “Brother Chen, are we really going to let this kid live?”
“No one who is blacklisted by me can survive!” Chen Jie said faintly.
Zhou Wei shivered. He felt the immense confidence in Chen Jie’s tone.
He secretly felt fortunate for his choice.
At the same time, he nodded, dragged Ye Fan, and hauled him out like a dead dog.
“Chen Jie, I have to go. If Ye Fan is in trouble, the Ye family will definitely break off cooperation with my Wang family. I need to make some arrangements,” Wang Xiaoyan said to Chen Jie, looking worried as Ye Fan was being taken away.
Chen Jie nodded.
Wang Xiaoyan and Jiang Xue soon left.
On the way, Jiang Xue was quite annoyed with Chen Jie today.
She couldn’t help but say to Wang Xiaoyan, “Xiaoyan, when are you going to break up with Chen Jie?”
“Why should I break up with him?” Wang Xiaoyan asked, surprised.
“Didn’t you see? This kid chopped off Ye Fan’s legs and caused a huge disaster. And Tang Hai gave his own daughter to him! This kind of person is not only philandering, but he might be finished tomorrow!” Jiang Xue said.
Wang Xiaoyan smiled and said, “I don’t think he’s causing trouble. A man this domineering is exactly what I like. Moreover, Tang Hai giving his daughter to Chen Jie shows that Chen Jie has strength and charm!”
“You…”
“Alright, Ye Fan is in trouble, and the Ye family will definitely hold our Wang family accountable. We need to prepare.”
…
Inside the Xishan Villa, more than a dozen masters were very interested in Chen Jie’s protective artifacts.
Chen Jie had intended to give each of them one, but he couldn’t find suitable jade pendants at the moment. He certainly wouldn’t use the ancient jades given by Tang Hai on them.
So he told them to buy them from Zhou Wei.
After seeing off Zhou Shu and the others, Chen Jie immediately took out the ancient jades given to him by Tang Hai.
Soon, he crafted more than a dozen permanent defensive artifacts.
These defensive artifacts not only would never be damaged, but after their spiritual energy was depleted, they would automatically absorb the spiritual energy from heaven and earth to replenish themselves.
The effect was unexpectedly good.
Chen Jie planned to give one to Wang Xiaoyan the next time he saw her.
In front of the Ye family’s gate.
As a van passed by, a man with severed legs was pushed out from inside.
The screams attracted the attention of the security guards at the gate.
Two security guards quickly went to check the situation, and upon seeing it, they were greatly alarmed.
Because the young man in front of them, who had lost his legs, was their young master, Ye Fan!
Ye Fan was screaming incessantly. The severed parts of his legs were not bleeding, but it was as if something was attached to them, constantly causing flesh and blood to disappear.
