C16 Do You dare to Attack Me?

Witnessing his son pinned under Yeh Hongchen's foot, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, Ye Yuze's restraint shattered, and he launched a fierce kick at Yeh Hongchen.

Yeh Hongchen cast a cold glance his way. Suddenly, a chill surged in Ye Yuze's heart, and clarity dawned upon his consciousness.

Yeh Hongchen, after all, was a disciple of a formidable power, and his ability to nurture such talent spoke volumes of his extraordinary background.

He had the audacity to strike him! Now, he feared the consequences...

As Ye Yuze tried to pull back his attack, Yeh Hongchen's lips curled into a cold smirk. "Dare to strike me? You've committed a crime."

In an instant, Yeh Hongchen vanished from Ye Yuze's sight and reappeared behind him in the blink of an eye!

Using the martial skill Dragon Fist, a burst of green light enveloped his fist as it rapidly struck at Ye Yuze's back!

Crack!

Roar!

The sound of splintering bones and a dragon's roar echoed simultaneously!

A violent whirlwind erupted, scattering the Ye Family disciples who had gathered to watch. The arena was left deserted in the aftermath.

A figure crashed heavily against the wall at the front of the arena, creating a gaping hole and becoming buried under a cascade of rubble.

Yeh Hongchen, in his pristine white garb, stood unscathed on the stage, hands casually clasped behind his back, as if the chaos had nothing to do with him.

Ye Yuhang, the Ye Family's Great Elder, eyes narrowed, fists clenched, his body quaking with rage.

The Ye Family, a renowned clan in Luoyang City, had never before been humiliated in their own home.

And it was his own brother, Ye Yuze, the Ye Family's Second Elder, who had been dealt the blow!

Indeed, the man who had been sent flying was none other than Ye Yuze, who had charged onto the stage in a desperate attempt to rescue Ye Zuoming.

Now, his spine lay shattered by Yeh Hongchen's merciless punch, with no chance of reprieve.

Yeh Hongchen had shown restraint, for had he not, that single punch could have been lethal.

Sensing Ye Yuhang's movements, Yeh Hongchen tilted his head slightly and glanced at him with a hint of amusement in his piercing blue left eye. "Oh? Are you entertaining thoughts of killing me?"

With a whoosh, the moment his words fell, a fearsome aura burst forth from Yeh Hongchen, his late-stage Celestial Stars cultivation pressing down on everyone, leaving them gasping for air.

"Me? Kill you?" Young Master Yeh chuckled. "Perish the thought. I was merely upset that my younger brother broke the Ye family's rules by rashly entering the arena to save someone."

Upon hearing Yeh Hongchen's words and feeling the oppressive force emanating from him, Ye Yuhang's tense frame relaxed, and he managed a strained smile in Yeh Hongchen's direction.

How could he possibly contend with Yeh Hongchen? With his vast influence and towering cultivation, even if Yeh Hongchen were to step on his face, Ye Yuhang knew he'd have to grin and bear it.

Yun Qingxue gazed upon the striking youth standing proudly on the stage, his presence shining brilliantly, captivating her with his vigor.

"This... this is the epitome of strength I've envisioned..." she whispered to herself, utterly transfixed by Yeh Hongchen.

Yeh Hongchen, noticing her gaze, let out a soft snort and surveyed the Ye family members around him. Each person quivered involuntarily under his penetrating stare, none daring to meet his eyes directly.

With a swift motion of his foot, Yeh Hongchen was suddenly before one of the Ye family's female disciples.

"Where is Ye Bufan?" he inquired sharply.

"Young Master Yeh, Ye... Ye Bufan has gone to the backyard," she stammered in reply.
