Chapter 103: Chapter 103 The Tragedy of Annihilation
"Go ask Lord Yanwang about that!" Ye Fei laughed heartily. Seizing the split-second distraction when Wu Qingfeng was speaking, he suddenly turned defense into offense, swiftly rotating his body at an unimaginable angle, evading the palm handed by Wu Qingfeng and exposing his back to a middle-aged man.
Ye Fei then struck with a heavy palm on Wu Qingfeng's chest.
No matter how cunning Wu Qingfeng was, he couldn't anticipate that Ye Fei would risk getting hit just to strike him.
With so many people present, Ye Fei's best strategy was to avoid getting injured at all costs.
If he were to get injured and his movements slowed down, he would be vulnerable to more attacks, leading to a vicious cycle.
With almost simultaneous loud thuds, as Ye Fei's palm struck Wu Qingfeng's chest, he also received a heavy blow on his own back. The outcomes, however, were vastly different.
Although Ye Fei couldn't utilize internal energy due to his unopened meridians, his physical strength was immense. His palm dispersed the protective true energy that Wu Qingfeng had cultivated for years, causing blood to spurt out as Wu Qingfeng was sent flying backward. Yet Ye Fei himself emerged unscathed.
Among the people present, perhaps only Wu Qingfeng could harm him. As for the middle-aged man who had struck him earlier, his attack was as inconsequential as a tickle to Ye Fei.
This sudden turn of events startled the members of the Wu family, causing them to hastily retreat several steps, encircling Ye Fei from a distance.
However, none dared to approach him. The scene now only featured the proudly standing Ye Fei and the incapacitated Wu Qingfeng seated not far in front of him.
"You... aren't you from the Liu family? How do you have a Golden Bell Shield... cough..."
Wu Qingfeng pointed at Ye Fei, but midway through his sentence, he began coughing, spitting out more blood with each cough. He felt excruciating pain internally, rendering him unable to speak further.
"Who told you I have a Golden Bell Shield?" Ye Fei smiled, denying the possession of such a shield but not confirming his affiliation with the Liu family.
After catching his breath, Wu Qingfeng managed to speak again. With a long sigh, he said, "I didn't expect the Liu family to harbor such a formidable figure. It seems like fate is against my Wu family. If you seek vengeance, just take my old life, but I implore you to spare the other members of my family, as we both belong to the martial arts community."
All he could do now was to try to absolve his family.
From the recent fight, he had realized that the young man before him was inexperienced in combat tactics but unmatched in strength and speed. Escaping for his family was impossible.
Ye Fei was surprised by the unexpected concern this cunning and ruthless man showed for his family. He hesitated for a moment, as he always prioritized his family. The old man's words struck a chord with him, evoking a sense of pity.
However, Ye Fei was not one to show mercy recklessly. He understood the danger of letting a tiger return to the mountains. If he spared this family today, who could guarantee they wouldn't seek revenge in the future?
Having already killed Wu Shiying, and considering Wu Qingfeng's martial prowess, no one except Ye Fei could match him.
Even the middle-aged men were stronger than anyone in the family besides Ye Fei's aunt.
Seeing a complex glint in Ye Fei's eyes, Wu Qingfeng grew resolute, realizing Ye Fei had made a decision he didn't desire. He sighed once more, "The residents of this manor are the elite of my Wu family, while our families reside elsewhere. I hope our conflict ends here. Please, refrain from targeting our families in the future. After all, they are innocent in this."
Wu Qingfeng, at this moment, exhibited no signs of the grandmaster he once was but appeared as a caring elderly man worried for his family.
"I promise you!" Ye Fei said in a deep voice, then suddenly slapped Wu Qingfeng on the top of his head. The old man's eyes rolled back, and he immediately fell flat on the ground.
The Wu family members and disciples were relatively far away, and Ye Fei's conversation with Wu Qingfeng was very quiet, so they couldn't hear what the two were saying.
It wasn't until Ye Fei suddenly attacked and killed Wu Qingfeng with a palm strike that they realized the conversation had broken down.
In their minds, Wu Qingfeng, the head of the family and the most skilled martial artist, was like a godly figure. Now that Ye Fei had killed Wu Qingfeng, they didn't dare to resist anymore. They scattered and fled, not even bothering with Wu Qingfeng's body.
Just as Wu Qingfeng had anticipated, Ye Fei excelled in speed and strength, and he had the intention of eradicating the problem at its root.
How could he allow these people to escape from under his nose?
Before they could flee the estate, he caught up with each of them one by one. These people were already frightened out of their wits, and any resistance they put up was feeble.
In less than five minutes, everyone in the estate, except for Ye Fei, was lying on the ground.
As a prestigious martial arts family, the Wu family was extremely confident in their martial skills, so they didn't have modern surveillance equipment like other wealthy households. This saved Ye Fei a lot of trouble. After dealing with everyone, he calmly left the estate.
Upon leaving the estate's gates, Ye Fei looked back and sighed inwardly at his lack of ruthlessness. Due to a moment of weakness, he hadn't actually killed Wu Qingfeng. Chapter Enjoy:
Instead, he had used his inner energy to sever the connection between his brain and body.
After the expansion of his brain domain, his understanding of the human brain surpassed that of all experts in the world.
Manipulating this wasn't too difficult. He had done the same to the other members of the Wu family, turning them all into vegetative states.
Ye Fei wasn't sure if his sudden soft-heartedness during battle was a good or bad thing. But if given the chance to choose again, he would probably still do the same.
In the future, Ye Fei would come to appreciate his moment of weakness, as it likely saved him from lifelong regret. This, however, is a story for another time.
After leaving the Wu family estate, Ye Fei didn't rush back to Wanghai but instead wandered around Linhai City.
Because the Wu family dominated this area and there were no other martial arts families present, Linhai was much more chaotic compared to Wanghai.
The martial arts families prioritized martial virtues in educating the next generation, leading to individuals who tended to uphold justice unintentionally or intentionally.
In contrast, since Linhai lacked such figures, it became a haven for criminals, with many wanted felons seeking refuge there.
