Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City

Li Lao felt his words were self-evident.

If a formidable Houtian expert couldn't kill an ordinary woman, he really ought to find a deserted place, pick a soft block of tofu, and smash himself to death with it.

What? You say tofu can't kill a person?

Have you ever seen a Houtian expert fail to kill an ordinary woman?

What? You've never seen a Houtian expert?

Fine, let's get back on track. Now it was Li Lao's turn to make a move, his arm, already lacking much flesh, suddenly lunged at Shen Yuexin with ferocity.

Whimpering, the extended arm actually stirred up a howling gale, like a malevolent specter freed from its cage, its presence immensely formidable.

Yuan Heng pushed with both arms, his body directly knocking Shen Yuexin to the side while he himself was struck by Li Lao's arm, his life force, already nearing depletion, quietly passed away at that moment.

"Yuan Heng!" Shen Yuexin cried out in grief, running to Yuan Heng's side within a few steps, but by then Yuan Heng's eyes were already wide open, lifeless.

Dead, all of them were dead, leaving only Shen Yuexin alone.

"I will have you dead!" Shen Yuexin howled furiously as her long dress fluttered crazily with her screams, her frail body unexpectedly bursting with a trace of astounding energy.

Grasping the already deceased Li Lao in shock, this energy was actually that of a Houtian peak-level, for now Li Lao himself was at the pinnacle of Houtian, just one step shy of the legendary Innate realm.

"Trickery, no matter what, you're dying today!" Li Lao flung Yuan Heng's body aside, charging toward Shen Yuexin like an enraged eagle.

Boom, a fist hurled towards Shen Yuexin, its surface swirling with an improbable grey mist.

Shen Yuexin's pupils were gradually turning red, becoming devoid of any emotion, her face filled with a dense aura of death, as if she were a Grim Reaper emerging from the abyss.

But just then, suddenly, a palm appeared between the two and then slapped down on Li Lao with the speed of lightning.

Smack, Li Lao was struck directly in the face by the palm, his internal energy roiled, and he fell to the ground before fiercely picking himself up, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

The palm that had sent Li Lao flying now rested on Shen Yuexin's head, streams of pure white Spiritual Power directly entering her body through her skull.

The crimson, unfeeling pupils gradually regained their senses, and the deathly aura coiled around her also gradually returned to normal, the murderous intent from before no longer present.

"Ye Ling!" Upon seeing the man beside her, Shen Yuexin immediately embraced him tightly, the ordinarily aloof CEO unable to hold back her tears, releasing the sorrow in her heart.

Ye Ling, looking at Yuan Heng's corpse on the ground and then at Shen Yuexin, who was holding him tightly, felt an excruciating pain in his heart, patted Shen Yuexin on the shoulder, "Don't be afraid, let hubby take care of this!"

"Avenge Yuan Heng!" Shen Yuexin did not reject the title of hubby from Ye Ling but lifted her head with a face of seriousness.

Ye Ling nodded, shielding Shen Yuexin behind him, his eyes coldly fixed on Li Lao opposite him, "I really don't know what kind of beast's gall you've eaten to dare touch my wife!"

"There is no one in this world that I, the seat, dare not touch. I advise you to leave, lest you lose your life here and it not be worth it," Li Lao said, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Although Ye Ling's sudden attack had injured him, Li Lao believed it was just a sneak attack, for standing at the pinnacle of the secular world, he considered himself an invincible existence.

"Old fool, in a minute this young master will let you know what regret means!" Ye Ling clenched his teeth, the fury in his heart blazing fiercely.

Upon his arrival, he had seen corpse after corpse, his heart shocked to the core, and had he arrived even a moment later, Shen Yuexin might have died.

This was an unforgivable oversight for Ye Ling!

Shen Yuexin was his wife—as far as he was concerned—especially after that night at his hometown, the importance of this woman in Ye Ling's heart had gradually increased.

"Hmph, take this palm from me first!" Li Lao sprang into action, thrusting his arm out violently.

Whoosh, Ye Ling's toes touched the ground, and his body nimbly appeared in front of Li Lao's rampant charge.

"Old dog, take a kick from me, young master!"

Bang, a size 44 shoe appeared directly in front of Li Lao's face, followed by a powerful kick. Li Lao's eyes widened in disbelief.

Strength, what immense strength, Li Lao felt as if he had been hit by a wildly speeding train.

Bang, Li Lao's body smashed into the ground, another mouthful of blood spewed out, his internal organs felt as if they were roasting in flames, with a heart-wrenching pain.

"Old dog, it's time to meet your fate!" Ye Ling yelled loudly, leaping into the air.

Whoosh, whoosh, his body spun rapidly in mid-air, then like a cannonball, it smashed down onto Li Lao's stomach.

Wow, a mouthful of blood with fragments spurted out like a fountain; Li Lao's eyeballs nearly popped out.

"Who... who exactly are you!" Li Lao asked with difficulty, his hands scrabbling at the ground, trying to escape using his strength.

But Ye Ling just sneered coldly, grabbed Li Lao's leg, and dragged him back. However, the next moment, a dark light appeared before Ye Ling's eyes.

Slap, Ye Ling casually slapped away the black light that appeared before him, a delicate, small and exquisite flying knife fell to the ground.

"Playing with hidden weapons now?" Ye Ling smiled grimly, his eyes suffused with a bloodthirsty red.

He took out a powerful electric baton, about thirty centimeters long, from his pocket, flipped the switch, and the top of the baton crackled, flashes of electricity sparking.

"Let's give you a taste of electricity, young master!" Ye Ling's smile was chilling.

This electric baton was confiscated by Ye Ling from a Hongjing Association underling who was showing off in front of him last night, and today Ye Ling had taken it out again.

"No!" Li Lao felt an electric baton thrust into him frantically from behind and let out a miserable howl.

The current, an enormous current surged and crackled, Li Lao's limbs below the waist writhed wildly, and the area had already begun to smell strongly of burning.

Blooming chrysanthemum, ground covered in wounds, your small face turns yellow.

"Kill!" Ye Ling thrust again, leaving the electric baton behind, then, with a heave of his hand, Li Lao was pulled upright, shaking uncontrollably as he stood.

"You think you're performing the breakdance? Stand straight for your young master!" Ye Ling slapped across Li Lao's face.

Faintly, the crackling sound could still be heard, Li Lao's face was filled with an expression of misery. A Houtian peak expert, an absolute being at the pinnacle of the mortal world, was subdued by an electric baton today!

That feeling, that sour thrill, Li Lao almost wished he could just bash his head to death in front of Ye Ling.

"Wife, how would you like to deal with this old dog next?" Ye Ling said, bringing Li Lao, who stumbled in his grip, to Shen Yuexin to ask.
