Xia Zhangjian

The street was crowded with many people, including members of the Li family. When they saw the steward killed by a palm strike from the young man, their expressions froze. They quickly left to report the incident to the family's higher-ups!

Ye Hao's expression was calm. He said to Lin Shige and her sister, "Let's go."

Lin Shige and her sister were still in a state of confusion. In just a moment, two people from the Li family had died at Ye Hao's hands.

And Ye Hao had done this all for them...

The two sisters were deeply moved. They vowed in their hearts to serve Ye Hao wholeheartedly from now on. They didn't know how else to repay him, so they could only serve him with all their might.

Ye Hao and the two sisters left.

Since Ye Hao hadn't left his name, no one knew which family or force he belonged to, which greatly angered the Li family.

They could only use Ye Hao's physical characteristics and the strength he displayed to gradually eliminate possibilities!

The Li family steward was at the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation. It was extremely rare in East Moon City for someone of the young man's age to be able to kill the Li family steward so easily.

After a series of investigations, they locked onto Ye Hao!

Ye Hao was dressed in white, tall and straight, standing at 185 centimeters. His build was perfect, and his appearance was extremely handsome, like a beautiful man stepping out of a painting. His hair was loose, giving him an air of carefree freedom.

With such great strength, he must have trained at East Moon Academy. Currently, there were only three people with such strength!

The first was Xia Zhangjian, the first on the academy's Prodigy Ranking!

The second was Fu Aoxuan of the Fu family, second on the Prodigy Ranking!

And the third was Ye Hao, who had been making a lot of noise recently!

Most people had only heard of Ye Hao's name; few had actually seen him.

The Li family was now 80% sure that it was likely Ye Hao who had killed the Li family steward and Li Feng!

"Father, uncles, that person is definitely Ye Hao!"

In the Li family's council hall, a young man around twenty-four years old said in a deep voice.

The elders of the Li family looked at the young man speaking, their gazes sharpening. "Xuanyuan, how can you be so sure it's Ye Hao?"

Li Xuanyuan's face was grim, and his fists were clenched. "Those two women were bought by Ye Hao from the slave market. I had a conflict with Ye Hao that day."

"You were covered in injuries that day, was it Ye Hao who beat you?"

Li Xuanyuan's father's face was grim at this moment.

Li Xuanyuan lowered his head in shame, tacitly admitting it.

"How dare he! Ye Hao killed two of our Li family members. Not long ago, Ye family patriarch Ye Qingyun injured three of our elders. It seems the Ye family wants to wage a full-scale war with our Li family!"

An elder of the Li family said indignantly.

Someone said, "Let's attack the Ye family! Destroy the Ye family!"

Everyone also wanted to do that.

But they always felt that the Ye family had been so strong lately, perhaps their ancestor had broken through to the Spirit Sea Realm? Or had they forcefully broken through to the Half-step Spirit Sea Realm?

If that were the case, things would be a bit tricky!

Although the Li family's overall strength was still greater than the Ye family's, if the Ye family ancestor broke through to the Half-step Spirit Sea Realm, the Li family would definitely suffer heavy losses in a conflict between the two families!

"Let's wait for the clan leader to arrive and hear his opinion," someone said in a deep voice.

Before long, the Li family patriarch arrived. He glanced at everyone present and then said calmly, "We will not go to war with the Ye family for now. We'll wait and see for a month. A stronger force has made arrangements."

Everyone was confused. "Clan leader, a stronger force?"

"The stronger force is targeting Ye Wuchen..." the Li family patriarch said slowly.

Everyone fell silent, filled with confusion.

They naturally knew of Ye Wuchen.

He was once the true Heavenly Prodigy of East Moon City, but he left East Moon City at a young age to go to a stronger place. They didn't know much about Ye Wuchen's subsequent affairs.

They only knew that Ye Wuchen seemed to have done very well after leaving East Moon City. He even found a woman of unparalleled beauty, so captivating that it shocked them and refreshed their understanding of beauty.

By the time Ye Wuchen returned for the last time, his hair was white, his cultivation was crippled, and it was said he had offended someone...

The former Heavenly Prodigy gradually became marginalized as time passed, and few people mentioned him anymore.

Even when they did mention him, it was because of Ye Wuchen's wife. Because everyone who had seen Ye Wuchen's wife was still deeply amazed, even though their memory of her appearance had become somewhat blurred, they clearly remembered the feeling of being stunned back then, and that beauty...

"Don't ask any more questions. In a month, the Ye family will be destroyed!" The Li family patriarch's eyes suddenly turned much colder. Those who dared to lay hands on his Li family must pay the price!

The Ye family and the Li family entered a temporary period of calm. The Jiang family, upon learning of the Li family's misfortune, also thought of something. They assumed the Ye family ancestor had broken through. With the idea of not letting a third party profit, they did not actively escalate the conflict with the Ye family.

However, the Jiang family members felt that the situation was not as calm as it appeared on the surface, as if everyone was waiting for something.

Two days later, the news of Ye Hao killing the Li family steward had spread like wildfire, becoming known throughout the city. Starting from these two days, Ye Hao's name became a household name in East Moon City.

Many people, upon learning of Ye Hao's achievements, couldn't help but discuss it.

"Ye Hao killed the Li family steward at the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation with one move. Doesn't that mean Ye Hao is at least at the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation? Or perhaps the Qi Realm?" someone couldn't help but tremble, "A Qi Realm cultivator at seventeen years old, that's too exaggerated!"

"What are you thinking? How could he be in the Qi Realm? Do you think having enough Spirit Stones and resources can help you break through to the Qi Realm? To break through to the Qi Realm, you first need to break through all the acupoints in your body during the Qi Condensation Realm, enduring pain and accumulating strength. I can be sure that Ye Hao is at most at the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation. It's just that he cultivated a more powerful combat technique, which allowed him to kill the Li Family steward in one move when they were caught off guard!"

At this moment, at East Moon Academy, many students were also marveling at Ye Hao's strength.

"If Ye Hao were to participate in the academy's martial arts grand competition, I feel the first place on the Prodigy Ranking would definitely belong to Ye Hao!"

"Although Xia Zhangjian is also at the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation, I don't think Xia Zhangjian could kill an opponent of the same realm in one move, right?"

As they were discussing.

Xia Zhangjian, dressed in white and standing tall, heard everything.

A cold glint flashed in Xia Zhangjian's eyes. As the number one on the Prodigy Ranking and the son of the East Moon City Lord, his status was noble. He looked down on the first-rate families and powers of East Moon City with disdain.

It could be said that in the entire East Moon Academy, he didn't take any Heavenly Prodigies on the Prodigy Ranking seriously.

He was an existence that countless people in East Moon Academy could only look up to!

Yet now, a bunch of ants in the academy were comparing him to Ye Hao, and even saying he was inferior to Ye Hao!

Xia Zhangjian felt unconvinced. Ye Hao could kill the Li Family steward in one move, and under specific conditions, so could he!
