The Mercy You Show the Wicked Is Cruelty to Yourself!

After saying that, Ye Jing's figure flashed, transforming into a streak of Flowing Light and disappearing from everyone's sight.

Using his extraordinary abilities, he quickly located the Zhao Family.

It turned out that after learning that Ye Jing might return for revenge, the Zhao Family fled to a neighboring country overnight, attempting to escape Ye Jing's punishment.

However, they underestimated Ye Jing's strength and determination. With his exceptional intellect and keen intuition, Ye Jing quickly tracked down the Zhao Family's hiding place.

A thrilling contest is about to unfold.

In a remote town in a neighboring country, Ye Jing found the Zhao Family's hiding place.

It was a seemingly ordinary house, but in reality it was full of traps and mechanisms.

But all of this was nothing more than child's play for Ye Jing.

He easily deciphered all the mechanisms and gradually approached the Zhao Family's hiding place.

"Ye... Ye Jing! How did you find this place?" Young Master Zhao looked at Ye Jing in horror, his voice trembling so much he could barely speak.

The Lineage members behind him also looked terrified and retreated.

"Do you know your crime?" Ye Jing looked coldly at Zhao Ming, his eyes filled with authority and unquestionable power.

"I... I..." Young Master Zhao stammered, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

He knew that no matter how he tried to explain himself, he could not escape Ye Jing's punishment.

"No need to say any more," Ye Jing interrupted Zhao Ming. "The crimes you have committed are countless, and today is the day you will receive your punishment!"

After saying that, Ye Jing moved swiftly, transforming into a blur, and instantly arrived in front of Zhao Ming.

"Wait, don't you care whether that little girl lives or dies?"

"If I die, that little girl won't live either."

Ye Jing's movements froze in mid-air, as if time had stood still. A complex emotion flashed in his eyes, a mixture of pity for innocent lives and anger at the Zhao Family's evil deeds.

The image of the little girl floated into his mind; that innocent and pure little life that had given him warmth and help had now become a bargaining chip in the hands of the Zhao Family.

"What did you say?" Ye Jing's voice was low and dangerous, each word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying an undeniable force.

Upon seeing this, a hint of smugness flashed in Young Master Zhao's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by fear.

His voice trembled as he continued, "Lord Ye, you should still remember that little girl, right? She's in our hands now. If you dare lay a finger on us, she..."

"Shut up!" Ye Jing roared, his aura instantly becoming violent, like an enraged lion ready to tear its prey to shreds. But even so, he maintained his last shred of rationality, not letting anger cloud his judgment.

"The Zhao Family, you are utterly shameless!" Ye Jing said through gritted teeth. "You won't even spare a child, what humanity do you have left?"

Young Master Zhao and the others were intimidated by Ye Jing's imposing presence and knelt down on the ground, begging for mercy.

But Ye Jing's eyes were filled with indifference and determination. He knew that any pity for such a villain would be a desecration of justice.

"Tell me, where is the little girl?" Ye Jing's voice was deep and powerful, each word like a heavy hammer striking the hearts of the Zhao Family.

"I know what you want. I'll let you go, and I promise I won't hunt you down for three days."

Ye Jing said coldly.

"You keep your word?" Young Master Zhao's eyes lit up.

"Of course, you can only trust me!"

"Good!"

With trembling hands, Young Master Zhao pointed to a secret room deep within the mansion, the very place where they had imprisoned the little girl. Without hesitation, Ye Jing flashed forward and sped toward the secret room.

Young Master Zhao rushed outside in a panic, and the entire Zhao family scattered like birds in flight!

Inside the secret room, the dim candlelight flickered, illuminating the little girl's frail figure.

She huddled in the corner, her eyes filled with terror and helplessness, yet even so, she clung tightly to a worn-out jade pendant, as if it were her only support.

With the Ye Jing pendant given by Ye Jing, the little girl's life would not be threatened.

However, the Zhao Family subjected her to other forms of mental torture, causing her equal suffering.

Upon seeing Ye Jing's arrival, a glimmer of hope flashed in the little girl's eyes. She struggled to stand up, but was weak and powerless due to her long period of imprisonment.

Ye Jing quickly stepped forward, gently picked her up, and warmed her cold body with his healing power.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you." Ye Jing's voice was gentle yet firm, like the warm sunshine of spring, dispelling the fear and cold in the little girl's heart.

The little girl clung tightly to Ye Jing's clothes, tears welling in her eyes, but a weak smile appeared on her lips.

She knew she was finally saved.

Ye Jing carried the little girl out of the secret room and back into the main hall.

Young Master Zhao had long since disappeared.

Seeing this, the other Zhao Family who were unable to escape knelt down and begged Ye Jing to spare their lives.

But Ye Jing's eyes were filled with indifference and determination. He knew that any pity for such a villain was an evil act!

Ye Jing coldly glanced at the Zhao Family kneeling on the ground. Their pleas for mercy were like noise to him at that moment, and he remained unmoved.

"Take them to the authorities and deal with them according to the law," Ye Jing ordered succinctly and forcefully, addressing the onlookers who had already gathered. "This is a reward."

After saying that, he threw out a huge pile of jewelry.

Those people's eyes lit up as they rushed to take the Zhao Family to the government office.

They found a room for the little girl to rest.

Then.

Looking towards the empty gate of the mansion, which should have been the direction in which Young Master Zhao escaped.

But Ye Jing placed the Evil God Power on him, which allowed him to sense his location very clearly.

Sure enough, not long after, Ye Jing found Young Master Zhao in a secluded mountain cave.

He huddled in the corner, his face filled with terror and despair, clearly realizing he had nowhere to escape.

"Ye... Ye Jing, you... you can't kill me!" Young Master Zhao said in a trembling voice, his eyes filled with fear of death. "You promised me, you gave me three days to escape, you can't kill me now."

Ye Jing slowly walked into the cave, each step seemingly striking a nerve with Young Master Zhao, making him even more fearful and uneasy.

"Oh? Why can't I kill you?" Ye Jing's voice echoed in the cave, tinged with a hint of mockery and coldness. "Did I say those words? Do you have any proof?"

Young Master Zhao gritted his teeth, seemingly having made up his mind. "I... I have a secret. If you don't kill me, I can tell you a big secret: I've heard there's an endless treasure."
