——————————————————

In his heart, he secretly decided that today he must teach this kid a severe lesson, to let him know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is, that this world is not one in which a kid could act so arrogantly!

"That would be good."

Xiao Yi seemed completely unaware of the murderous intent emanating from the two men, nor could he hear their threatening words. Observing their uncontrollable rage, with no intention of holding back, he simply shook his head slightly, as if muttering to himself.

"Seeking death!"

Scarface could no longer contain himself, and with a fierce shout, his figure dashed towards Xiao Yi like lightning, throwing a ferocious punch at Xiao Yi’s chest. This punch, which concentrated almost all his strength, contained no trace of probing. It showed just how furious he was inside!

The entire air seemed to be pierced by this punch, emitting a faint whistling sound.

If this punch connected, even a rock would be shattered, let alone striking a human body!

Almost everyone, upon seeing this punch, couldn’t help but reveal a trace of cruelty in their eyes, a blood-red glint flickering within, as if they could already see Xiao Yi being blasted away, lying on the ground and coughing up blood miserably.

Including the one-eyed man wearing an eyepatch nearby, who, at the moment the fist was about to connect with Xiao Yi’s body, revealed a hint of cruel mockery in the corner of his eye.

"Thump!"

Accompanied by a solid impact sound as the fist struck Xiao Yi’s chest, everyone expected an unbelievable scene, but what happened next was indeed inconceivable!

Xiao Yi’s seemingly frail figure, which looked as though a gust of wind could blow him away, did not fly back from the punch. Instead, he stood still like an unmovable tree, his face not even changing expression, remaining as calm and gentle as before.

What... what’s going on?

Could it be that punch was all show and no power? No, from the intensity and the form of the punch just now, it was clearly a fierce blow, and that sound... it was heard...

Could this be similar to the legendary Soft Palm of the Heavenly Mountain Sect, where a punch looks gentle and leaves no mark on the surface but internally shatters the lungs and viscera—a deadly attack?

"Ah!"

While everyone was still puzzling over why Xiao Yi was still standing, a piercingly tragic scream filled the night sky, echoing eerily throughout the desolate mountains, sending chills down their spines.

Could it really be the Soft Fist?

Otherwise, why would such a horrific scream be heard?

Hearing this tragic scream, everyone jumped in fright, and their attention quickly refocused back to the center of the scene.

However, when they clearly saw what was happening in the field, everyone’s eyes bulged out in shock.

There stood Xiao Yi, with a serene and composed expression, and even a hint of a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth. But his opponent, the boss who just took down the terrifying female officer with an unparalleled punch, now lay crumpled on the ground in utter agony, his face twisted in pain, traces of blood seeping from the corners of his mouth and his nostrils, presenting a fearsome sight.

This... this...

Everyone was utterly shocked!

Disbelief and incredulity were evident on their faces as they looked towards Xiao Yi. They could hardly believe that the seemingly harmless, weak-looking pretty boy, whom they thought they could knock away with a single punch, had, without their noticing, beaten their boss to such a state!

After a while, they regained their senses, fear evident in their eyes as they instinctively began to step back.

Now, in their eyes, this young man was no longer the pretty boy they saw initially, no longer a weakling, but a devil!

Yes, a devil—there was no better word to describe this kid. Only a devil could possess such terrifying skills and deal with their formidable boss so stealthily and effortlessly!

Keep in mind, their eyes were fixed on the scene the entire time; they didn’t even see him make a move. It was as if their boss had inexplicably collapsed!

And only a devil could be so cruel!

Although none of them knew exactly what kind of torture the boss had endured, the twisted shape of his face and the miserable look alone were enough to tell how much pain he was suffering at that moment!

However, the most shocked and fearful on the scene was not them, but the one-eyed man wearing an eye patch!

He was a martial artist in the middle tier of the Bone Tempering Period, and he was very clear about the strength contained in his companion’s punch. Even for him, who was one tier higher, taking that punch without dodging would be extremely painful!

He also knew that the punch was not some nonsense Soft Fist. He didn’t know if the stuff from novels really existed; maybe it did, but at least he had never seen anything like it.

So... when Xiao Yi did not fly out and looked calm and collected, the one-eyed man’s complexion had already changed. In his mind, an ominous premonition arose; he knew that Xiao Yi was probably not the ordinary Initial Tier Bone Tempering expert he had thought, but very likely to be at the same Middle Tier Bone Tempering level as himself, or even at the High Tier Bone Tempering level!

But even after making such an ominous prediction and dire judgment, what followed still far exceeded his expectations...

The man with the scarred face actually collapsed to the ground, with blood oozing from his seven orifices...

From his ghastly scream and the gruesome look on his face, he knew that his brother’s chances of survival were grim.

To be injured like this without even fighting...

What kind of strength was that?

Just what kind of terrifying person was this?

To achieve that, even someone at the peak of the High Tier Bone Tempering Period might not be able to do it, right? Master Fei was at the peak of the High Tier Bone Tempering Period, and it seemed he might not be able to do that either!

So... his strength... could it really have reached that legendary realm?

But... how could that be possible!

He was so young... Even if the young master used the power of his entire family, and he’s thirty years old this year, he still has not been able to make that step...

His scalp tingled, and his feet rapidly retreated as he looked at Xiao Yi, his pupils suddenly contracting... This young man before his eyes was far too terrifying, so young, yet his strength had far exceeded his imagination...

Xiao Yi’s gaze, after glancing at the man with the scarred face on the ground, gradually became gentle as he turned to look at the one-eyed man with the eye patch, a warm smile appearing on his lips.

"You... don’t come any closer!"

The one-eyed man with the eye patch, upon seeing Xiao Yi’s gaze turn towards him, felt an even greater surge of fear. His face went completely pale, especially upon seeing the warm smile on Xiao Yi’s face, which made his entire body start to tremble. To him, that gentle smile seemed like the Grim Reaper’s grin at that moment!

Facing Xiao Yi, he had completely lost the courage to resist.

After a while, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and a look of excitement appeared on his face. He grabbed Zeng Xiaomei and held her neck tightly with two fingers, as if he had just found a talisman. He said excitedly, "Don’t come any closer, if you let me leave, I will release her immediately! Otherwise, I will kill her right away!"

With these words, he continued to back away.

"Why put yourself through this!"

Xiao Yi’s face changed for a moment, but then he quickly regained his composure and let out a gentle sigh.

"You... don’t come any closer! Just let me go, and I will let her go right away! Otherwise, I will kill her this instant!"

The one-eyed man didn’t understand why Xiao Yi suddenly sighed and said such words. He only felt that holding Zeng Xiaomei was definitely a charm, and only by holding on to her tight could he have a chance of escaping with his life.

Otherwise, facing a high-level master like Xiao Yi, he was convinced that even if allowed to run, he wouldn’t be able to escape!

To someone like Xiao Yi, he was no less daunting than those modern weapons, maybe even more terrifying!

He knew that Xiao Yi had come for Zeng Xiaomei, and from the moment he had arrived, he had made his intentions clear, so he felt that Xiao Yi would definitely care about Zeng Xiaomei’s life and death!

In essence, he was right: Xiao Yi did indeed care about Zeng Xiaomei’s life and death. Although there was not much emotion between him and Zeng Xiaomei, she was, after all, Zeng Xiaoxiao’s sister.

Another important point, which he quite admired, was Zeng Xiaomei’s character. If he had to choose the only person he trusted in the entire G City law enforcement system, it would undoubtedly be Zeng Xiaomei. (To be continued.
