You... Forced Me!

Ye Lei looked at the leading man in black and smiled. "Sixth Elder's men, right?"

The five men in black trembled in unison. Their identities had been so easily seen through by this little brat who still reeked of milk. It seemed Sixth Elder had been right—this brat really couldn't be allowed to live. They absolutely couldn't let him interfere with the Elder Hall's plans!

The leading man's gaze turned cold. He turned and said, "Brothers, the elder has ordered that whoever takes his head will get a promotion and a raise. Get him!"

As he spoke, the five men in black ignored the police beside them and prepared to make their move on Ye Lei.

Ye Lei raised a hand. "Wait. Isn't it a little inappropriate to fight here?"

"After all, you don't want to hurt innocent people either, do you? Let's settle this downstairs. What do you say?"

The five men in black exchanged glances. The leader looked at Ye Lei with ill intent, then nodded the next second and led his companions downstairs.

Every little movement of theirs had been seen by Ye Lei. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly as he followed them downstairs.

Since they had come, they shouldn't expect to leave in one piece!

Taking advantage of the five men's inattention, Ye Lei placed a Soul Power seal on his home. A blue-gold flash of light streaked past...

Downstairs, at the small plaza.

The residents of the neighborhood were discussing the matter fervently. For the police and military to arrive at the scene together was more than enough to provide these elderly men and women with post-dinner gossip for a long time. Before long, countless different versions would probably spread!

Two minutes later.

"They're out! They're out!"

No one knew who had shouted, but every resident in the plaza turned their attention over.

"I wonder who it is, to make the police and military take this so seriously!"

"I'm telling you, this person definitely isn't a good guy!"

"I think so too."

Under everyone's shocked gazes, the person behind the five men in black slowly came into view.

"Isn't that the Ye Family's boy? I remember he's always been such a good child!"

A moment later, an elderly woman slowly stepped forward and spoke to the five men. "Sirs, little Ye has always been a good boy, and his character is excellent too. Is there some misunderstanding? Why don't you investigate again..."

"Where did this old hag come from? Get lost!"

Before the old woman could finish, the black-clad man nearest to her shouted and kicked her.

The old woman flew backward. Amid everyone's shocked gazes, a Blue Silver Emperor Vine wrapped around her waist and brought her to Ye Lei's side.

Blue-gold light flickered in his hand. The next second, a gentle stream of Soul Power slowly flowed into the old woman's body.

Seeing this, fury spilled from the eyes of several hot-blooded young men. They glared at the five men in black as though they wanted to burn them to ashes.

Several of them strode forward and unleashed a barrage of curses at the man in black who had attacked her.

"Holy shit!"

"Are you fucking kidding me? Is this how a soldier is supposed to act? Is this how you treat an old lady?!"

After being "politely" greeted by the young men, a heavy aura burst from that man's body. A purple gorilla appeared behind him, and the next second, he threw a punch, crackling with electric sparks.

The men had no time to dodge and instinctively raised their arms to protect their heads.

A moment passed, but the punch they had expected never landed. They looked up and saw a crimson stone wall blocking the blow before them.

Turning around, they saw a red giant behind Ye Lei, who was supporting the old woman with one hand.

Those present who had watched Douluo Continent immediately recognized it as Ye Lei's Martial Soul.

Under Ye Lei's deliberate control, the fist of the man who had attacked was firmly stuck in the stone wall.

Ye Lei placed the old woman on a lounge chair nearby, then turned and walked toward the five men.

Ye Lei's gaze gradually turned icy. Scorching currents of air radiated from him, rapidly raising the nighttime temperature. Looking at the men in black, Ye Lei slowly said, "I originally didn't intend to kill you, but now, you forced me! I don't mind going with you, but only if you can beat me. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving my hands alive."

His cold voice slowly reached the ears of everyone in the plaza. The leading man in black laughed and spoke dismissively. "Kid, at least think before you talk. Don't spout nonsense. The five of us can't beat a little brat like you? Don't make me laugh!"

Just as the leader of the men in black was basking in his confidence, Ye Lei's next words made his expression change drastically.

"If I guessed right, you have a twin brother, don't you?"

"So what if I do?"

"Unfortunately, you'll never see him again. But don't worry, I'll send you down soon so you can reunite with your brother."

"What did you say?!"
