"Ah!!!"
The piercing scream echoed again, followed by Li Ding rolling on the ground with an expression of extreme pain. His fate had become the same as Wang Hu's; it seemed he would likely become disabled starting from tonight.
"Run, run!"
"This guy has gone crazy!"
"He's killing people!"
Seeing this scene, the group of youths began to panic and scatter in all directions, shouting for help. What had been a plan to confront together had turned into a chaotic escape.
In terms of strength, they were not necessarily much weaker than Ye Tian, but their pampered upbringing had turned them into useless individuals who could only feel fear in the face of danger.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
"My arm! My arm!"
Faced with this group of cowards crying out for help, completely overtaken by fear and lacking any will to resist, Ye Tian moved through them like a tiger among sheep. Wherever he passed, there was a scream, and soon another boy fell down with one arm disabled.
"Spare me... Ye Tian, I kneel before you!"
Facing the last boy who was begging for mercy, a flicker of compassion crossed Ye Tian's heart.
"Get lost! If you don't escape my sight before I kill Wang Hu, I will show no mercy!"
"Okay, okay, I'm leaving... I'm leaving right now..."
After hearing Ye Tian's response, the young man's face showed an expression of relief as if he had been pardoned. He then scrambled away in a panic, stumbling and nearly falling over himself.
Watching the figure disappear into the night, Ye Tian turned back and slowly walked towards the still groaning Wang Hu. "Wang Hu, you never expected this day would come, did you?"
"W-what do you want! D-don't come any closer!" Facing the approaching Ye Tian, Wang Hu dragged his limp arm back in terror.
"What do I want? Of course, I want to settle our grievances!" At this moment, Ye Tian's eyes were filled with cold killing intent. This person before him was different from other youths; the humiliation he had inflicted on Ye Tian was far too much...
"If you dare touch a hair on me, my father will never let you go!" Wang Hu's body trembled from excessive fear as he faced Ye Tian, who was now squatting in front of him. At that moment, he could clearly feel the aura of death surrounding him.
"You don't need to worry about that; I have my ways to ensure your father won't find me!"
With that, a glinting dagger appeared in Ye Tian's hand. He grabbed Wang Hu and slowly brought the dagger towards his chest.
Three inches, two inches, one inch...
"D-don't! Don't kill me! I'll kneel for you; I'll call you grandpa..." The last few words came out of Wang Hu's mouth almost as a cry. If Ye Tian had killed him outright, he might not have been so afraid. But facing death inch by inch brought an overwhelming fear that Wang Hu could no longer withstand. With a thud, he fell to his knees before Ye Tian.
"Ye Tian grandpa, I regret it so much. I regret how I've treated you all this time. I'm not human; I'm a dog raised by a bitch; I'm a beast. Please spare me..."
The dagger drew closer while Wang Hu continued to plead for mercy, and a foul odor began to emanate from beneath him.
Finally, unable to endure any longer and seemingly having made a great decision, Wang Hu took a deep breath and said, "I know a secret about your mother!"
The dagger halted, and Ye Tian's expression froze for a moment but quickly returned to normal as he coldly replied, "If you dare lie, I will ensure you die without a complete corpse!"
"I wouldn't dare!" Wang Hu said with an ingratiating look. "Actually, your mother... didn't die from illness..."
Upon hearing this, thunder roared in Ye Tian's heart as he grabbed Wang Hu by the collar and demanded, "Explain yourself! What do you mean... didn't die from illness?"
Wang Hu had long been frightened by Ye Tian, his voice trembling as he spoke, "I... I said, you have to spare my life..."
"Speak!" Ye Tian shouted coldly, causing Wang Hu to shudder in fear.
"Then you..."
"If you dare to waste more time, I'll cripple your other arm too!"
"Please, please! I'll tell you." Wang Hu secretly glanced at Ye Tian and then timidly said, "Your mother was actually forced to death by Xu Ao..."
"Xu Ao?" Upon hearing this name, Ye Tian seemed somewhat puzzled.
"That's right! It's that beast. He coveted your mother's beauty back then and wanted to..." Wang Hu dared not continue.
As a member of the Xu Family, one of the three great families of Spirit Martial Town, Ye Tian had certainly heard of Xu Ao. From what he knew, this person was indeed extremely lecherous and had forcibly taken women before, but he was only seven or eight years older than himself...
"How do you know this?" Ye Tian's dagger glinted coldly in his hand; if Wang Hu's answer did not satisfy him, the outcome was predictable.
Wang Hu stepped back two paces in fright and stammered, "That day I wanted to come find trouble with you..." At this point, Wang Hu suddenly slapped himself and corrected, "Actually, I was passing by here and happened to see Xu Ao sneaking around your window. I even went up to greet him, and he told me..."
"Told you what?"
"I can't say; what he said wasn't very nice..."
"Just tell me the final result." Ye Tian understood what Wang Hu meant by not daring to say it and did not press further.
"After I greeted him, I left, but I actually wanted to see... so after he went inside, I quietly snuck back. However, before I could get close to the window, I saw him hurriedly escape without looking back."
"Oh? Why?" Ye Tian felt puzzled as well; his mother was an extremely gentle woman. How could she possibly scare someone who was already a Warrior Definition like Xu Ao?
"I don't know about that, and when I looked, I didn't see anything terrifying. I only saw your mother swallow three Dan Pills, after which she fell unconscious. However, I can be certain that she must have died because of him."
"And how can you be so sure?" After all, Wang Hu's description had many doubts. If he blindly trusted his words and treated Xu Ao as an enemy, it would be somewhat irrational.
"Because Xu Ao later came to find my cousin Wang Weiyang. He told my cousin that your mother practiced a very strange technique. Later, my cousin accompanied him to visit again, but by then your mother was already dead. Based on Xu Ao's description and the symptoms of your mother's meridians being severed after her death, my cousin concluded that your mother must have originally been a strong practitioner. However, something taboo was placed within her body, and she forcibly broke through the taboo, leading to her meridians being severed. Although she scared Xu Ao away, she must have feared that he would return, so she took poison and ended her life."
Wang Hu finished speaking in one breath and then looked eagerly at Ye Tian, waiting for the words "You can leave now."
After hearing this, Ye Tian's expression turned serious as he fell into deep thought.
A stick of incense's time passed. Wang Hu waited anxiously and finally spoke up timidly, "Can I..."
"Get lost!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Hu immediately showed a look of relief as if he had received a great pardon, then hurriedly fled.
Ye Tian looked at Wang Hu's disheveled figure and coldly said, "Wang Hu, remember this: I value promises. I spare your life now, but you'd better not appear before me again; otherwise, you will undoubtedly die!"
At this moment, Wang Hu had already run dozens of yards away. After hearing this, he laughed heartily; instead of feeling grateful, he shouted like a petty person who had gained an advantage: "You wild breed better watch out! My cousin Wang Weiyang is at home right now; I will definitely have him tear you to pieces!"
Ye Tian ignored him because he had anticipated such behavior when deciding to let him go. He could only silently think to himself: "Such a petty person; the next time we meet will surely be the day you meet your demise!"
