The crisp sound of slaps echoed through the spacious office as the guards on both sides stared at the scene in slight disbelief.
Ya Fei, seated behind Xiao Yan, could not help parting her rosy lips slightly.
Lei Le, who sat where he was after being slapped by Xiao Yan, was equally dumbfounded.
But after the shock passed, the humiliation and fury in his heart turned his face crimson, even obscuring Xiao Yan's handprint.
"You little bastard, I'll kill you!"
Lei Le let out a furious roar. The Dou Qi that had been scattered gathered once more, and in his mad rage, he even wanted to directly unleash a Dou skill and kill Xiao Yan.
Yet before his Dou Qi could fully gather again, that slender hand swung toward his other cheek before Lei Le's powerless eyes.
Slap!
The Dou Qi around Lei Le's body was scattered again. No matter how he tried to resist, he had no power to fight back.
"Bastard, I'll kill you!"
Slap!
"You'll come to no good after offending this young master!"
Slap!
Crisp slaps continued to ring through the hall, and the rage in Lei Le's eyes gradually turned into fear.
By the end, his eyes were already filled with pleading.
Xiao Yan's slaps had left his head buzzing, and his consciousness was beginning to blur.
His once fairly handsome face had swollen into a pig's head, while the relentless slaps continued to send searing pain through his cheeks.
Slap!
Only after Lei Le spat out a mouthful of blood along with several broken teeth did Xiao Yan finally withdraw his hand in satisfaction. He casually picked up a silk handkerchief from Ya Fei's desk and wiped Lei Le's swollen pig-headed face, a pleased smile curling at his lips.
Rebirth itself held little appeal for an unparalleled expert like him.
But after being reborn, the feeling of effortlessly crushing those disgusting piles of filth from his Previous life truly was refreshing.
"I'ww kiww you!"
After Xiao Yan casually tossed him aside, Lei Le slowly regained consciousness after a short while.
The moment his mind cleared, the agony in his face and the fury in his heart instantly swallowed what little reason he had left.
This time, with his Dou Qi not scattered by Xiao Yan, Lei Le let out an indistinct roar. Dou Qi burst from his body and gathered in his palm, where a low rumble of thunder faintly resounded.
Then, carrying that explosive force in his palm, he smashed fiercely toward Xiao Yan.
"Watch out!"
Seeing Lei Le go so mad, Ya Fei could not help crying out. Lei Le was a Seven-star Dou Practitioner, and with his grandfather being one of the Mite'er Family's higher-ups, he also possessed a set of Mystic Dou skills.
Although she knew that Xiao Yan likely had a mysterious expert secretly protecting him, seeing Lei Le like this still made her cry out in concern.
Glancing at the worry on Ya Fei's charming face, Xiao Yan smiled.
He did not even turn his head fully back before a fist, already initially hardened like iron and stone, shot out without any flourish and slammed fiercely into Lei Le's palm.
A dull thud rang out alongside the sound of breaking bones. In the next instant, before Ya Fei's even more stunned gaze, Lei Le let out a miserable scream and flew backward like a cannonball, crashing hard into the wall behind him.
The terrifying force even embedded his body slightly into the wall. He passed out immediately, then slowly slid down and lay on the ground, barely alive.
"Th-this..."
Watching this scene, Ya Fei involuntarily covered her parted rosy lips with a jade-like hand, the shock on her face lingering for a long time.
Earlier, Xiao Yan had knocked a Dou Master unconscious with a snap of his fingers. While it had seemed strange to her, thinking of the powerful sect behind Xiao Yan made it somewhat understandable.
But tossing Lei Le around like a chick and then sending him flying with a single punch after he used a Dou skill—that had been a genuine punch from Xiao Yan himself.
Lei Le was a genuine Seven-star Dou Practitioner, after all. Even after using a Mystic Dou skill, he had still been knocked unconscious by Xiao Yan with one punch.
"Y-you haven't become a Dou Master already, have you?"
Staring at Xiao Yan in utter astonishment, Ya Fei could not help blurting out.
As that absurd and unrealistic thought arose in her mind, her heartbeat began to quicken.
Xiao Yan had only just turned thirteen, hadn't he? If he had become a Dou Master at that age, it would be utterly unheard of.
"Uh, becoming a Dou Master will probably still take some time."
Seeing Ya Fei like this, Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head. His gaze fell on the two stunned guards, and with a slight wave of his hand, the pair obediently retreated outside, even closing the door behind them.
If they had once feared Xiao Yan because of his status, then now his strength also commanded their fear.
After the two guards left, Ya Fei finally let out a slow breath. Once the shock in her heart had faded somewhat, her beautiful eyes fixed tightly on Xiao Yan.
"You really are a little monster. Ever since meeting you, I've become somewhat numb even to things that once seemed world-shaking."
Hearing Ya Fei's words, Xiao Yan merely smiled noncommittally. Only then did he see her pretty face turn toward the unconscious Lei Le, and she could not help letting out a soft sigh.
"Still, you've seriously injured this fellow. You've truly offended his grandfather now. That old man is a genuine Dou Ling expert.
That means the trouble ahead may become rather serious."
Yet Xiao Yan showed no concern at Ya Fei's words.
"What kind of waves can a mere Dou Ling stir up?"
"The reason those old fogies in your family sent this piece of trash here was to establish new business ties with the Alchemists behind me, then push you out of power, wasn't it?
Don't worry. As long as I'm alive, that will never happen.
As for the affairs among the Mite'er Family's higher-ups..."
Xiao Yan looked at Ya Fei, then suddenly gave a mysterious smile and said softly, "You can send a message to Teng Shan, the Clan Leader of your Mite'er Family, and tell him that Hai Bodong is still alive."
"Hai Bodong is still alive?"
Ya Fei froze slightly, not quite understanding the meaning of those six words.
"Heh, just tell Teng Shan those six words. Believe me, those trivial matters in the Mite'er Family will never trouble you again. Teng Shan will definitely stand by your side from now on."
Seeing Ya Fei's puzzled expression, Xiao Yan could not help shaking his head with a smile.
"The Clan Leader will absolutely stand on my side?"
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Ya Fei still could not help feeling dazed.
Mite'er Teng Shan was the Clan Leader of the Mite'er Family, a true Dou Wang expert. Yet because of just those six words, he would so firmly stand on her side?
What kind of power did Xiao Yan possess, to make a Dou Wang expert choose sides with just one sentence?
While she was lost in thought, she suddenly realized that the young man had unknowingly wrapped an arm around her willow-like waist.
"Sister Ya Fei, I've solved so many problems for you. Don't I deserve a reward?"
Her body trembled slightly as she looked into the burning eyes of the young man, who had unknowingly grown as tall as she was.
A captivating blush suddenly rose on Ya Fei's charming face.
