As the dagger neared Ye Min’ er’s throat, a gruesome scene was about to unfold.
“No!” The voices of some timid onlookers could not be contained any longer.
Ye Wanwan hadn’t anticipated the situation would escalate to this point; she swiftly stepped forward to intervene. Regardless, Ye Min’er had accompanied her today and belonged to the Ye family. She couldn’t stand by and watch Ye Min’er fall into trouble.
Yet, before she could act, she found herself frozen in place, utterly immobilized. A wave of astonishment swept over her; she couldn’t fathom the capabilities of the person who could exert such control. Despite her formidable cultivation, she was at the initial stage of the Fasting Realm – not a match for some higher-tier individuals, but still among the elite in the Hidden World. Who could manipulate her like this without detection?
More crucially, if this person could control her so effortlessly, what prevented this person from silently dispatching her, leaving no trace?
These thoughts left her genuinely alarmed.
Ye Wanwan couldn’t move, and her accompanying friends, witnessing this unexpected turn, were left in stunned silence, afraid to make a move.
Approaching the Family Competition, the elite disciples dedicated themselves to rigorous practice, aiming to shine in the upcoming event. Those still accompanying Ye Wanwan were either indulgent heirs or individuals seeking favor.
Accustomed to bullying others with Ye Wanwan’s backing, they were unprepared for this situation, panicking and frozen in place. Some even feared that making a move might draw attention and put themselves in peril.
Meanwhile, Ye Leng’an’s dagger loomed perilously close to Ye Min’er’s throat, the blade grazing her skin.
Surprisingly, the dagger abruptly halted.
Though the threat seemed momentarily suspended, Ye Min’er’s fear lingered. The cold aura around her neck suggested that, in the next instant, her throat might be slit without hesitation. Death felt uncomfortably close.
“Why the silence?” Ye Leng’an stared at the petrified Ye Min’er, seemingly oblivious to the tension, wearing a mocking smile. “Weren’t you quite audacious just now?”
Ye Min’er, consumed by fear, couldn’t utter a word.
Onlookers, including those accompanying Ye Wanwan, watched anxiously, fearing any tremor in Ye Leng’an’s hand might lead to Ye Min’er’s demise.
Addressing the intruder, the manager spoke with a suppressed fear. “Customer, think twice! If you kill Ye Min’er here, the Enforcement Team won’t spare you. There’s no need to escalate this.”
The manager hadn’t anticipated this turn of events. She assumed Ye Min’er wouldn’t dare pose a lethal threat, and considering the Ye family’s face, she had chosen to observe coldly. Now, it seemed the other party wasn’t joking and might take Ye Min’er’s life any moment.
“Hehe, Manager, since you chose to turn a blind eye earlier, stand firm till the end.” Ye Leng’an’s face bore a scornful smile, her words merciless. “l can’t be as biased as you.”
The manager’s expression soured, wearing a bitter smile. Initially confident Ye Min’er wouldn’t endanger the couple’s lives, and respecting the Ye family’s reputation, she had opted to watch. Now, however, it appeared the threat was real, and she couldn’t ignore it. Yet, it was too late to call for help, and she wondered if Ye Wanwan would regret intervening..
