Chapter 957: I Got You!
I Got You! . . .
Cha Eun Xiao's frustration swelled as he repeatedly failed to capture Han Bingxue. Despite his relentless attempts to catch up, he couldn't close the gap. What further infuriated Cha Eun Xiao was the smirk that crept across Han Bingxue's face, a clear sign of mockery. In a fit of anger, he bellowed, "Fine! You're stronger than me now. Do as you please. Run, keep running. I can't catch you, but I can sever our ties, you ungrateful wretch. Let's never cross paths again!"
[Is he serious?]
[Why so worked up?]
Han Bingxue was taken aback. He halted in his tracks, and moments later, Cha Eun Xiao's fists rained down upon him with a flurry of blows, each one landing painfully.
—Bang, bang, bang—
Fury engulfed Cha Eun Xiao, and he fumed, "Why are you using spiritual power to resist my punches? It's infuriating! Stop it, or I'll cut all ties with you!"
Han Bingxue felt helpless as he responded, "Boss, please understand. My spiritual power resists your attacks automatically. I haven't deliberately used it. You should know that if I intentionally harnessed my spiritual resistance, your attacks would shred me to pieces instantly."
"Very well, you know it all. Just cease your spiritual power now!" Cha Eun Xiao bellowed. "Halt it immediately and stand here. Let me give you a good thrashing, and we'll be done when I've had my fill. Otherwise, I won't go easy on you!"
Tears welled in Han Bingxue's eyes. "You're too feeble to hurt me, yet you want me to relinquish my spiritual power just so you can beat me? Isn't that… shameless? Why don't you declare that you wish to torture me?"
Cha Eun Xiao's anger reached its zenith. "What? Are you hesitating?"
"I…"
"Are you stopping or not?"
"Yes, I am! I'm ceasing it, alright? Just go on! Come on, pummel me! I surrender! I'm merely a few dozen kilograms; do as you please."
Han Bingxue gave in, his tone marked by both frustration and resignation.
In the ensuing moment, Cha Eun Xiao kicked Han Bingxue and forced him to the ground. Straddling him, Cha Eun Xiao unleashed a barrage of punches while hurling insults. He ranted, "Just do as I please? Anything I want? Very well, no problem. I'll fulfill your wishes, you good-for-nothing! You swine! I've never encountered someone more despicable. You worthless scoundrel, you fool, you revolting lowlife! You…"
After some time, Han Bingxue scarcely resembled a human. His head had ballooned to twice its normal size, and even his posterior had swelled. He looked like an oversized, bloated balloon.
This marked one of the lowest points in his life, leaving him seething with resentment. Han Bingxue appeared to be in the most pitiable state he'd ever experienced, far from the handsome figure he once was. Life was rife with unpredictable twists.
Cha Eun Xiao, having just pummeled Han Bingxue mercilessly, appeared far from well. He was gasping for breath, his body thoroughly drained. Han Bingxue, a super cultivator at the ninth level of Dao Origin Stage, remained a formidable adversary. Even with Han Bingxue's spiritual qi suppressed, the Dream Origin Stage of Cha Eun Xiao was insufficient to cause any significant harm.
This was expected. Recalling his past encounter in the Land of Han-Yang with Gu Jinlong, who was entirely powerless and appeared like a piece of meat on Cha Eun Xiao's plate, Cha Eun Xiao struggled to harm him, despite employing all available methods. If not for Brother Egg's remarkable abilities, the outcome might have been reversed, with Gu Jinlong surviving instead of Cha Eun Xiao. Although Cha Eun Xiao had grown hundreds of times stronger since then, Han Bingxue remained considerably more potent than Gu Jinlong. Han Bingxue's assertions were not without merit; if he hadn't intentionally accepted a beating, Cha Eun Xiao's life could have ended with the flick of a finger.
"That was so dishonorable," Han Bingxue grumbled, visibly vexed. "Threatening me to stand here while you pummeled me, even forcing me to halt my spiritual qi resistance... It was entirely unreasonable and overbearing. Where's the justice in that?"
This renewed Cha Eun Xiao's anger, causing him to erupt in fury. He shouted, "You scoundrel! Now you comprehend my concept of justice! Do you believe this is enjoyable for me? Can you fathom the agony? If you ever attempt this again, I won't just beat you or shout at you..."
Han Bingxue appeared pleased. "Sounds great!"
Cha Eun Xiao responded vehemently, "I will drag you to a bustling town and strip you naked!"
"What? Holy moly! That's brutal! No..." Han Bingxue reacted as though struck by lightning.
"I know. I can't overpower you, or even catch you. However, if you ever attempt to flee from me, I'll sever all ties with you instantly! The choice is yours!" Cha Eun Xiao declared, his smile bearing a wicked edge.
"Damn... Why do you keep threatening me with that vile stuff? That's deplorable! Ruthless! Filthy! Disgraceful!" Han Bingxue exclaimed.
"So what? I will definitely carry it out! So what!" Cha Eun Xiao retorted unflinchingly, locking eyes with Han Bingxue.
Han Bingxue surrendered, his voice filled with resignation. "Fine! I give in. I'll comply with you wholeheartedly. Satisfied now?"
"Excellent. Let's forget about what happened earlier. And, I suppose I should leave a mark on you," Cha Eun Xiao commented, then landed a solid punch on Han Bingxue's head.
Han Bingxue, not wishing to be perceived as pretending, willingly crumpled to the ground, clutching his head as though in agony. He gazed at Cha Eun Xiao with the demeanor of a wronged spouse, although Cha Eun Xiao had never struck him so hard. The pretense was for the sake of Cha Eun Xiao's satisfaction.
After some time, Cha Eun Xiao's temper waned, and Han Bingxue sprang to his feet, grinning. "Well, Boss..."
"Meow..."
Suddenly, a soft feline sound was heard. A white cat appeared on Cha Eun Xiao's shoulder, gazing imperiously at Han Bingxue. The cat appeared entirely nonchalant and began to nap on Cha Eun Xiao's shoulder.
It was undeniably adorable, with a small, snow-white body and fur. Han Bingxue, who had spent considerable time around beautiful women, possessed a fondness for charming creatures. In the face of Erhuo, the enchanting cat, Han Bingxue was powerless to resist.
"Oh, Boss, when did you start to fancy little cats? This is a surprise. You've adopted a pet. What a magnificent little creature..." Han Bingxue laughed and extended his hand towards Erhuo, his eyes glowing. "Come here, kitty. Let me hold you. Oh, how adorable you are, little one..."
