Kneeling?

Only when Xuan Ye's ninjutsu proficiency increased would the power of his ninjutsu increase. If his ninjutsu proficiency did not improve, then the power of his ninjutsu would not increase either.

Hyuga Kazefu, standing opposite Xuan Ye, gradually found it boring as he kept cursing. These timid ordinary Konoha civilians in front of him had been cursed so badly, yet they did not even dare fart back. They only stood carefully before him, lowering their heads humbly and not daring to leave casually.

Since that's the case, I'll let these Konoha villagers off. After dealing with them, it will be time to deal with that ignorant brat and let him know who he can't afford to provoke.

"Hmph, get lost, all of you. Don't let me see you again, or you'll suffer for it." Hyuga Kazefu, standing before Xuan Ye, threw out a threat at the Konoha villagers.

Those ordinary villagers, who only dared lower their heads and did not even dare move, immediately fled at their fastest speed after hearing Hyuga Kazefu's words. They did not dare linger for even a moment, as though afraid he would call them back.

These Konoha villagers had long wanted to leave, but they had not had the chance. Now that Hyuga Kazefu had personally told them to get lost, they ignored everything and ran away at the fastest speed of their lives without looking back.

In truth, not everyone in Konoha Village was the sort to endure being beaten and cursed without fighting back. There were still plenty of bolder people. People like that simply ignored Hyuga Kazefu.

Those who wanted to leave left on their own, while those who wanted to stay and watch the show remained. However, they no longer formed a circle around Xuan Ye and Hyuga Kazefu as they had before. Instead, they kept some distance so Hyuga Kazefu would not notice them, then watched the show.

After Hyuga Kazefu told the Konoha villagers to get lost, almost everyone dispersed. Only a few people remained on the street, and those who stayed were not afraid of Hyuga Kazefu. After all, Hyuga Kazefu was only one person; he did not represent the Hyuga Clan.

However, not representing the Hyuga Clan did not mean people could beat him up whenever they wanted. The Hyuga Clan also cared greatly about its dignity. If anyone dared casually suppress a member of the Hyuga Clan, the Hyuga Clan would bare its fangs and let others know it was not to be trifled with.

Only after most of the people around Hyuga Kazefu and Xuan Ye had left did Hyuga Kazefu turn around. Wearing a confident smile, he said to Xuan Ye, "Brat, what are you planning to do? You bumped into me. Don't tell me you think a simple apology will be enough?"

Standing directly opposite Hyuga Kazefu, Xuan Ye saw the punchable expression on his face and nearly failed to suppress the urge to hit him. However, he still wanted to see what Hyuga Kazefu was trying to do.

So he forcibly suppressed the feelings in his heart, calmed himself, and put on a terrifyingly calm expression. Looking into his eyes, he said, "Then what do you want? Sir of the Hyuga Clan."

Seeing Xuan Ye's expression and terrifying gaze, Hyuga Kazefu could not help feeling a little afraid. It was instinctive fear, but the feeling quickly vanished. Hyuga Kazefu did not know why he had felt afraid just now.

But he was extremely displeased by that fear. You're only a brat, yet you made me feel afraid. That's truly shameful. In that case, brat, don't expect this matter to end so easily.

After thinking for a moment, Hyuga Kazefu said to Genya Namikaze, who stood before him, "You brat bumped into me, a member of the Hyuga Clan. An apology definitely isn't enough. But as long as you kneel before me and kowtow three times, I'll forgive you."

After saying that, Hyuga Kazefu looked at Genya Namikaze standing opposite him with a smile. At this moment, he wanted to see the other party's pain and struggle, but this time, Hyuga Kazefu was disappointed.

After hearing Hyuga Kazefu's words, Xuan Ye walked toward him. The expression on his face did not change in the slightest, and those terrifying eyes were fixed tightly on Hyuga Kazefu before him.

Not only did Genya Namikaze not show an expression of pain or struggle, he did not even reveal the slightest expression. He even walked toward him. Looking at that unchanged face and those eyes that seemed capable of swallowing people whole, Hyuga Kazefu became a little afraid.

However, this would not change Hyuga Kazefu's mind in the slightest. He was a member of the Hyuga Clan, and behind him stood the powerful backing of the Hyuga Clan. The brat before him would definitely be afraid and could only do as he said in the end.

"Y-you, what are you trying to do? I'm a member of the Hyuga Clan. Don't come any closer. If you keep coming closer, don't blame me for making a move." Hyuga Kazefu was a little afraid and wanted Xuan Ye to stay where he was and not approach any further.

But Genya Namikaze seemed not to hear Hyuga Kazefu. He simply walked toward him, getting closer and closer, until he stood before Hyuga Kazefu. Looking at his face, he said, "Heh. Kneel? If you've got the guts, say that again."

Xuan Ye's voice was not loud, but it was so gloomy that it made people afraid. Hyuga Kazefu, standing opposite him, saw that Xuan Ye had not stopped as he had ordered. Instead, he had come closer and closer, until he stood only one step away.

Generally speaking, in this kind of situation, the person opposite would react in one of two ways: either flee in fear, or ignore everything, cast aside the fear in their heart, grit their teeth, and attack.

Xuan Ye wanted to see which kind Hyuga Kazefu was. If he was the first type and fled directly, then forget it. But if he was the second type and attacked him, Xuan Ye would definitely make him pay the price.

As Hyuga Kazefu watched Xuan Ye continue walking toward him, the prestige of the Hyuga Clan seemed to have no effect at all. The brat standing before him either had never heard of the Hyuga Clan or was not afraid of it.

It was indeed somewhat possible for a child like this not to have heard of the Hyuga Clan, such a powerful clan. But the possibility that he was not afraid of the Hyuga Clan was truly small. After all, in Konoha Village, there were very few who were not afraid of the Hyuga Clan.

The Uchiha Clan counted as one, and the Hokage's faction could also be included. Powerful experts could also refuse to give the Hyuga Clan face. Other than those three, almost everyone else would give the Hyuga Clan some face, and this brat could not possibly be a powerful expert.

One look at his eyes was enough to know he could not be from the Uchiha Clan. Other than those two, that only left the Hokage's faction. But there were not many people in the Hokage's faction, and Hyuga Kazefu did not believe this brat would be one of them. Since that was the case, what was he still afraid of?
