Chapter 112: Chapter 112: Another expert from the Xu Family _1
"How could this happen?" Chen Bin panicked instantly, as the firearms and ammunition were the source of his confidence in challenging the Xu Family.
Who would have known that in the blink of an eye, his confidence had been utterly destroyed.
As Xu Zhendong finished speaking, the cloaked old man began to move again.
He swiftly swept through the room, and as he passed each person, they silently fell to the ground.
Ye Ming noticed that the cloaked old man drew silver needles at an almost perverse speed, aiming them at the enemies’ vital points.
His technique was precise and his speed was fast, deepening Ye Ming’s admiration and even igniting his fighting spirit, wanting to cross hands with the elder.
In another blink, Chen Bin watched as the people he brought with him fell one by one to the ground, all lifeless, and he became completely flustered.
His legs went weak and he immediately knelt on the ground, scared out of his wits.
He had never imagined that someone could be fearless even against guns, and the confidence that had filled him was now gone without a trace.
With a thud, Chen Bin’s legs gave out and he knelt on the floor, completely losing his earlier bravado, his face stricken as he began to beg, "Mr. Xu, I was wrong, it was overconfidence on my part, I... "
Xu Zhendong had no patience for his pleas and cut him off, saying to the cloaked old man, "Elder Wang, it’s up to you now, leave no survivors."
The man known as Elder Wang nodded, moving towards Chen Bin like a ghost, and with a touch to the center of Chen Bin’s forehead, Chen Bin spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body fell straight down.
Witnessing the corpses scattered around, Ye Ming was greatly shocked.
Elder Wang’s movements and techniques were extremely practiced, which meant he must have rehearsed this sequence countless times.
Yet the Wang who had killed so many showed no expression at all, as if he had done something insignificant.
After Xu Family’s bodyguards dragged Chen Bin’s corpse away, there was no longer a presence of the Chen Family in Hai City.
In Hai City, probably only the Xu Family dared to do such a thing.
After the calm returned, Xu Zhendong finally turned his attention to Ye Ming.
The two exchanged glances, and just as Ye Ming was about to speak, Xu Zhendong gestured with his hand to stop him.
"I know what you want to say, and you don’t need to say more," he said.
"To be worthy of my daughter, you have a long way to go. I don’t want to hear any grandiose promises; I need to see it with my own eyes."
"When the time comes that you are worthy of my daughter, I will naturally consider giving you an opportunity, but for now, I want Le Le to come back to Yanjing with me."
"Dad, I won’t go back!" At this point, Xu Lele hurriedly interrupted, expressing her stance.
Xu Zhendong’s tone became stern, "Our Xu Family doesn’t have many people left in Hai City, it’s dangerous for you here. If you still recognize me as your father, then come back with me."
"Your mother and your grandfather are still worried about you, you have to go home personally and let them see you."
Having said that, Xu Zhendong gave Ye Ming a look, leaving him to interpret it himself.
Ye Ming wanted to say more but stopped himself, simply nodding his head: "Okay, then Uncle Xu, I will take my leave."
As he left, Ye Ming took one last look at Xu Lele, then turned and left the hospital room.
After he left, Xu Lele couldn’t help but complain, "Dad, how could you treat him with that attitude? That was too much."
Xu Zhendong explained, "Until his strength meets my requirements, I will only treat him with this attitude. For him, this is also a test."
"If he can be so easily scared off, then the test can end sooner."
At this point, Xu Xincheng chimed in from the side, "Dad is right. Sis, you’re just blinded by him. In my view, he’s far inferior to Li Kai."
Xu Zhendong looked at Xu Xincheng and said without mercy, "No matter who it is, I will treat them with the same attitude. I won’t change because of their background or status."
"Whether it’s Ye Ming or Li Kai, they are both at the same starting line. As for who can become the son-in-law of our Xu Family, it will depend on their personal abilities."
Xu Xincheng pouted, evidently not quite convinced. Xu Lele wanted to say more, but seeing her father’s expression, she had no choice but to swallow her words back down.
She could only silently pray that Ye Ming could show some backbone and quickly meet her father’s expectations.
She had a premonition that Ye Ming would definitely be able to do it. The shock that Ye Ming had given her in the few short days in Hai City was already too much, and she had great faith in Ye Ming.
After leaving the hospital, Ye Ming returned to his own home and continued his cultivation.
The previous complacency he felt after reaching the Intermediate Mystical Rank had now completely vanished. Having seen another powerful individual from the Xu Family, Elder Wang, he calmed down and continued his practice, striving for further improvement.
"The Great Grandmaster is just a step away for me," Ye Ming thought.
...
At the Xu Family, during dinner time, Xu Daqiang and Zhang Xueping had just finished preparing dinner and were about to start eating when they heard a rapid knocking at the door.
Upon opening the door, Xu Daqiang got quite the fright and hurriedly asked, "Xu Ling, what happened to you? What’s all this about?"
Zhang Xueping rushed over upon hearing the commotion, and seeing Xu Ling’s appearance, she became very anxious. She quickly put her hand on Xu Ling’s forehead and muttered, "You don’t have a fever. What’s going on with you, girl? Say something! Do you want to worry your mom and dad to death?"
At that moment, Xu Ling was in a sorry state, her hair disheveled, face pale, and lips devoid of color. Large beads of sweat dripped from her forehead, soaking her clothes.
Trembling, Xu Ling grasped her mother’s hand and stammered, "Dead... He’s actually dead..."
Xu Daqiang and Zhang Xueping exchanged glances, then asked in bewilderment, "Who’s dead? What exactly happened? Speak up! Do you want to worry both of us to death?"
Xu Ling swallowed and, gasping for breath, said, "Wang Hai is dead... Wang Hai has been killed... I heard it over the phone just now."
"He was thrown off a cliff by that bastard Ye Ming..."
Upon hearing this, Xu Daqiang and Zhang Xueping were both terribly frightened.
Ling then recounted everything she had heard to her parents.
After listening, Zhang Xueping surprisingly grew unafraid and said directly, "That’s good. A life for a life. Let’s call the police right now. We are eyewitnesses!"
"Your brother was framed by him, and he’s still in prison now. I can’t believe Ye Ming isn’t just sitting idle but even dares to murder someone. He’s audacious! Let’s get him arrested and shot. I think that’s letting him off lightly. He should die twice, no, three times over!"
Xu Ling shook her head vehemently, insisting, "We can’t call the police; otherwise, he will come and kill me. Mom, Dad, what should I do? Now that Ye Ming is a murderer, could he really come and kill me?"
