Chapter 618: The Fate of Sudden Death
"What grand bravado! I’ve arrived, yet you won’t show yourself to face your doom? Do we have to wait?"
Ye Fan’s utterly calm words were like a bolt of lightning out of the blue. Though softly spoken, everyone heard them.
"That’s my brother-in-law." Chu Biyao’s beautiful eyes shone with excitement.
"Is this the majesty of the Terminator? Although he’s usually very low-key, unassuming, at this moment the confidence and dominance he reveals are such that he doesn’t regard anyone, his aura is like a tiger. Such charisma!" Mengyao’s heart quivered, grateful for meeting Ye Fan, considering it a great blessing of her life.
The hands of the two Mengyao sisters tightly clasped, their beautiful eyes watching Ye Fan heading toward Li Chenggui’s residence, they vowed his elegance at this moment was etched not only in their souls but also impressed upon others present.
"This is my benefactor." Han Bihong shivered all over with excitement.
"This is the master." Qiu Wen and Shen Yaqing exchanged a glance, a deep sense of pride surged from their hearts.
At this point, the lingering worries within Mengyao and the others vanished, replaced by a torrent of hot-blooded pride. They had no worries left and firmly believed Ye Fan wouldn’t be harmed.
This was the effect his words brought.
"What did he say?"
"Did I hear wrong?"
"He’s saying he’s here for Li Chenggui to come out and face death! That statement is too bold, isn’t it? How does it sound? You seem to be more famous than Li Chenggui! No kidding, alright? Li Chenggui is a well-known strongman, reigning supreme in the Northwest, yet to you, he’s like a junior. Such arrogance, asking Li Chenggui to come out and face death! Ridiculous!"
"He says Li Chenggui has grand bravado. What about you?"
"Aren’t we waiting for Li Chenggui to appear? That’s respect for Li Chenggui! But you come here and boast shamelessly. Is that appropriate?"
"You cannot insult Human Body Limit experts. Insulting means death. You are too reckless!"
"I truly don’t know whether to say you’re pompous to the extreme or just ignorant." Chi Qinyuan staggered, almost losing his soul and stared at Ye Fan in shock.
Among Zhang Lu’s side, emotions surged. Cold sweat broke out all over as they were aware of Li Chenggui’s fearsome reputation. Daring to speak such big words in his presence truly left them speechless.
"This is a real man; this is a Human Body Limit expert; he’s been too low-key." Zhang Lu objectively evaluated, her heart fluttering.
"What?"
"What did you say?"
"You bastard, how dare you speak disrespectfully to Li Chenggui!"
"You’re about to die, yet still dare to boast shamelessly with disrespectful words!"
"Are you looking for death? You’re damn well looking for it!"
People from the five families couldn’t remain calm. In their eyes, Li Chenggui was akin to a god. Anyone daring to insult him even slightly would drive them mad. Now, almost all of them were agitated, cursing and lunging towards Ye Fan, wanting to tear him apart.
"Stop them, keep them in line. If anyone causes trouble, kick them out or arrest them." Zhang Lu issued the order.
"Yes." The subordinates loudly complied, recovering from shock and forcibly blocking the frenzied five families.
"Calm down, don’t make a scene." Li Chenggui and others spoke up, finally pacifying the crowd.
"Damn it, Ye Fan, that little bastard surely deserves no pity."
"We must tear him to pieces; he dared to belittle Li Chenggui, unforgivable, he must be severely punished." Though the five families became much quieter, their verbal abuse remained harsh.
Ye Fan paid no mind to the petty insults, seeing no sense in engaging ignorantly with them.
"Things seem a bit off."
"Yes, indeed strange. Ye Fan’s demeanor doesn’t resemble someone facing death."
"Could it be that Ye Fan’s strength is formidable, not even fearing Li Chenggui?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Ye Fan, who is a novice unheard of, how could he even be a match for Li Chenggui? Even if Ye Fan shows some ability, at most he’s an Earth-tier expert, never a match for Li Chenggui."
"He isn’t even qualified to be Li Chenggui’s opponent."
Li Chenggui, Huang Jingwei, and Chen Tiande whispered like this, despite not believing Ye Fan could challenge Li Chenggui. Yet a peculiar unease grew in their hearts.
Seeing Mengyao and others without a trace of worry, and Ye Fan’s confident figure, their unease deepened.
"To speak impartially, Ye Fan’s current demeanor is truly manly, hard-hitting, daring to speak to Li Chenggui this way; he might well be the first." Li Chenggui murmured.
"Indeed, his aura is powerful. It’s what every man desires in style. For a moment, I saw in him the arrogance of despising all and a confidence invincible globally." Huang Jingwei said complexly.
"You’re overthinking; once Li Chenggui acts, Ye Fan will surely be doomed." Chen Tiande confidently stated.
"Hopefully, we’re overthinking." Li Chenggui and Huang Jingwei said solemnly.
"Could it be that my unrealistic speculation is coming true?" Ma Qianqiu bitterly said, "Mr. Ye really has enough strength to rival Li Chenggui."
Ye Fan, on his side, strode confidently toward Li Chenggui’s residence.
All eyes focused on Ye Fan.
They were all waiting for Li Chenggui to appear.
As attention mounted, when Ye Fan was still a distance from the residence’s door, it opened, revealing Li Chenggui’s aging figure.
"Li Chenggui."
"Li Chenggui!"
"Li Chenggui!!"
"That brat spoke disrespectfully; dared to slight you. You must kill that guy."
Such calls, laden with varied emotions, erupted from the five families’ mouths. In their agitation, each acted extremely courteously, bowing towards Li Chenggui.
Li Chenggui seemed aged, yet any practitioner could sense the dangerous aura emanating from him.
"That’s Li Chenggui, truly extraordinary." Chi Qinyuan sighed.
"Li Chenggui, unmatched in existence. Ye Fan, the small fry, surely won’t escape a violent death." Li Chenggui and his companions voiced with complex emotions.
