The Strong Are Supreme

"Closer, closer, we're about to catch up with the five of them."

As they drew nearer, Xuan Ye's excitement grew, though he didn't know why he felt this way, but that didn't matter.

"As long as you're happy and enjoying life, why bother with other things? Right?"

At this moment, the five people had arrived at a relatively secluded street. There were not many people on this street, and not many houses either, only a few.

This place is quite far from the town center, which may be why there aren't many people living here. Judging from the number of houses, there are probably no more than a hundred people living here.

"Brother, do you think we really have to stay here for the next couple of days? But there probably aren't any extra rooms available for us!"

One of the henchmen behind the leader turned around and observed the surrounding houses.

There weren't many houses here, only a few, but in front of each house were some grains, vegetables, and a large vat of water. Judging from this, there weren't any extra houses for the group of them to live in.

"Heh! Don't you know how to solve this? Since there aren't any extra houses for us to live in, why don't we just secretly kill a family? Then we'll have a spare house to live in!"

The young man leading the group spoke casually to the four people behind him, seemingly indicating that human life was not a particularly precious thing.

"But brother, is this really the right thing to do?"

The man behind the leader hesitated, seemingly finding his leader's words somewhat cruel.

"Haha! What's good or bad about it? That's just how the world is. The strong live and the weak die. Only by becoming strong can you control the lives of others, and we happen to be strong now."

The young man leading the group raised the silver iron rod in his hand and swung it a few times in the air. Under the sunlight, the silver iron rod faintly emitted a dazzling light.

At this moment, Xuan Ye hid in a corner and did not come out immediately. Instead, he hid for the time being to see what they wanted to do.

"The strong live, the weak die. Is it true that only the strong can control the fate of others?"

When Xuan Ye heard this, a smile gradually appeared on his face, a crazy smile, and his eyes were full of madness.

"I like that statement, but you still can't escape the path of death. This should also prove what you said: the strong live and the weak die."

Xuan Ye had decided to stop waiting and didn't want to see what they were up to anymore, because he no longer wanted to see or know anything about what they wanted to do.

"Who's there? Come out now!"

The young man who was leading the group suddenly shouted towards a hidden corner.

Because he saw a figure suddenly appear in that corner, and that figure was walking towards them.

The other four men tensed up upon hearing their leader's shout, raising their silver iron rods and looking in the opposite direction.

From the corner, Xuan Ye slowly walked out, making no attempt to conceal his presence. He walked out openly, knowing that the five people posed no threat to him whatsoever.

"Stop yelling, it's me."

As they approached, the figure gradually appeared in their eyes, and only then did they realize who the figure belonged to.

"He, he was a child, no doubt about it, just a child, wearing a white robe, with long black hair and deep-set eyes."

However, none of the five people present dared to underestimate the child. They were on high alert, and some of them began to tremble.

Fear and terror gripped their hearts once again, making even breathing difficult.

"You, how did you suddenly appear here?"

The young man leading the group swallowed hard, beads of sweat forming on his forehead, and looked at Xuan Ye before him.

"Don't be so scared! Anyway, you have no way to fight back against me. In that case, you might as well not resist at all. That way, you might die more easily."

Xuan Ye looked at the young man leading the group and spoke in a relaxed tone.

"You, what exactly do you want here? Just tell me!"

"You probably already know why I'm here. I'm here to kill you, of course."

Xuan Ye smiled and spoke slowly to them.

"Why, why are there people like this in the world who smile when they say they're going to kill someone, as if killing is something that can be done very quickly?"

The young man who was leading the group was somewhat afraid. Although he had bitterness in his heart, he couldn't express it.

"Why? Why are you killing us? Didn't I swear an oath that I would never cause trouble at that noodle shop again? Why are you doing this?"

The young man leading the group spoke to Xuan Ye, roaring loudly, seemingly expressing his anger at Xuan Ye's actions.

"Heh! Is that really what you think? Is that really what you truly believe in your heart?"

Xuan Ye smiled, looked at the young man leading the group, and asked in a low voice.

"What? What are you saying? What do you mean by that?"

He asked again.

"What do you mean? Are you really clueless or just pretending? Did you swear you'd never cause trouble at the noodle shop again? I doubt it!"

The young man leading the group was startled, but his face remained expressionless.

"Since I have made a vow, I will keep my vow and will not break it."

The young man leading the group spoke to Xuan Ye with some excitement.

He was scared. He didn't know why the little devil knew what he was thinking, but he didn't want to die, didn't want to die so soon.

"Really? Is what you're saying true?"

Xuan Ye smiled, staring intently into the eyes of the young man in charge, his murderous aura seemingly becoming uncontrollable.

The white tooth on his forehead showed signs of fading, appearing slightly darker than before.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the young man in the lead felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him, making him uncomfortable and unable to breathe.

"How could this happen? Why is this happening? It's the same as this morning. This feeling is really unbearable, it's making it hard for me to breathe."

A terrifyingly large amount of malevolent energy emanated from Xuan Ye's body, pressing down on the young man who was leading the group.

"It seems that this terrifying aura alone might be enough to immobilize that person!" Xuan Ye thought to himself.
