Su Yu?

Du Yuanxiu's gaze stalled slightly when he heard Zhao Heng's words.

This was Su Yu?

He knew the Su Family's young master as well.

How had he ended up like this?

"What exactly happened?" Du Yuanxiu asked.

He knew about Xu Ye and the Su Family.

Now that Su Yu had ended up like this, could Xu Ye have done it?

Was this guy really that impulsive?

The Demon-Suppression Bureau might not explicitly forbid private fights.

But striking without cause still carried punishment.

"It was him... he hit me..." Hearing Du Yuanxiu's question, Su Yu hurriedly pointed at Xu Ye, his face full of hatred.

He was even leaking air when he spoke now.

But his general meaning could still be understood.

Du Yuanxiu's expression changed slightly at once.

It really had been Xu Ye?

He looked at Xu Ye.

Before Xu Ye could speak, Su Yu roared, his voice like a beast's howl. "This brat dared... hit me... If you don't give me an explanation... I won't let you off!"

Du Yuanxiu glanced at him but said nothing.

Instead, he swept his gaze toward Xu Ye and asked, "What happened?"

Xu Ye spread his hands. "Reporting to you, sir, he struck first. I was acting in self-defense and only hit him to protect myself."

He paused slightly before adding, "And he even asked me to hit him himself. I had no choice."

At those words, not only did Zhao Heng curl his lip—

Even Du Yuanxiu's eyes widened.

You were at the ninth level of Meridian Opening, and you beat someone at the second level of Meridian Opening into this state for self-defense.

You called that having no choice?

Even Du Yuanxiu, who wanted to take Xu Ye's side, felt a little embarrassed now.

"He's full of shit!" Su Yu roared when he heard Xu Ye's words. "He was obviously the one who hit me... Look for yourself, see what he did to me!"

"If you don't uphold justice for me... I'll report this..."

Xu Ye gave a scornful laugh. "What I said is true. They can testify for me."

As he spoke, he pointed at Lin Yuyan and the other.

Du Yuanxiu looked toward Lin Yuyan and the other.

Lin Yuyan raised her hand. "Reporting to you, sir, Su Yu did strike first. And he was the one who asked Head Xu to hit him. Head Xu only acted because he had no other choice."

Although Zhao Heng was highly displeased with Xu Ye, seeing Su Yu beaten into this state gave him a certain malicious delight. "Su Yu was indeed the one who made the first move."

Hearing them, Du Yuanxiu's eyes widened as he stared at Su Yu in disbelief.

This guy had been that bold?

He actually dared to attack Xu Ye first?

Wasn't that courting death?

No wonder he had been beaten so badly!

"You... you're all in this together!" Hearing Lin Yuyan and the other's words, Su Yu's face filled with hatred as he howled again and again.

"Shut up!" Du Yuanxiu shot Su Yu a vicious glare and coldly rebuked him. "You've got some nerve. A man from Tranquility Hall actually dared to come to my Demon-Suppression Guards and commit violence. Who gave you the guts?"

He had just been unable to find a reason to stand on Xu Ye's side.

Now that there were witnesses proving Su Yu had struck first—

Then Su Yu could hardly blame him.

At the same time, he secretly glanced at Xu Ye.

This guy was truly ruthless!

He had actually gone for Su Yu's life!

He had beaten the man so miserably!

"You... you're all in this together!" Su Yu immediately roared, murder filling his face.

Du Yuanxiu said coldly, "Enough! I will report this matter. When the time comes, you can explain it to someone else!"

Striking without cause in the Demon-Suppression Bureau meant punishment.

In other words, not only had Su Yu been beaten up now—

Once the matter was reported, he would be punished too.

He had tried to steal a chicken only to lose a handful of rice.

Su Yu nearly died of rage.

But he forcibly held it in.

Struggling, he climbed to his feet and, with his pig-headed face, glared at Xu Ye. "Brat, I won't let you off!"

"Why aren't you leaving yet?" Du Yuanxiu frowned at once.

At that moment, Su Yu did not turn around and leave immediately. Instead, he suddenly pulled a folded document from his robes and tossed it to Du Yuanxiu.

Du Yuanxiu raised a hand to catch it, immediately frowning. "What does this mean?"

Su Yu said dully, "This is a mission assigned to you from above... I came to deliver the message..."

He had not come specifically to find Xu Ye.

He had come to find Du Yuanxiu with a mission from above.

He simply had not expected to run into Xu Ye along the way.

So he had suddenly thought of teaching Xu Ye a lesson.

After all, his sister had said that if he could finish the other party off, all the better.

Who could have imagined that he would be the one beaten so badly instead?

It had nearly enraged him to death.

He wished he could slice Xu Ye into a thousand pieces.

He would remember this grudge.

Sooner or later, he would make this brat repay it tenfold.

"A mission?" Du Yuanxiu frowned slightly.

Since when did a mission need someone from Tranquility Hall to deliver it?

But he said nothing more and nodded slightly. "All right. If there's nothing else, you can leave."

Su Yu shot Du Yuanxiu a vicious glare before looking at Xu Ye, his eyes brimming with killing intent.

He had originally intended to leave just like that, but the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Gritting his teeth, he said, "You have a younger sister, don't you? You'd better keep guarding her forever!"

Boom!

The moment those words left his mouth—

Du Yuanxiu's expression changed drastically.

Just as he was about to say something—

Xu Ye suddenly moved.

With a whoosh, he crossed the distance at extreme speed and appeared directly before Su Yu.

Before Su Yu could react, Xu Ye seized him by the throat and lifted him into the air.

Su Yu's eyes widened at once, his eyeballs bulging as his face instantly turned purple. He could not breathe.

"Looks like you really want to die!" Xu Ye stared fixedly at Su Yu.

No matter what Su Yu did to him, Xu Ye did not care. He could take it.

But this guy dared to use his younger sister to threaten him.

Xu Ye absolutely could not tolerate it.

"Fuck!"

Zhao Heng and the others were badly startled by the sudden turn of events.

They had never imagined Xu Ye would do this.

Was he going to kill Su Yu?

Had he gone mad?

This was the Demon-Suppression Bureau!

Killing someone from the Demon-Suppression Bureau came at a price.

"Stop!" Du Yuanxiu's eyes widened as well, and he hurried forward to grab Xu Ye's hand.

He was truly afraid!

He knew that for his younger sister's sake, Xu Ye had dared to charge alone into the Clear Spring Gang and slaughter every last member of the Clear Spring Gang.

Su Yu had dared to threaten Xu Ye with his younger sister.

Wasn't that courting death?

He was truly afraid Xu Ye would snap Su Yu's neck.

If Xu Ye killed Su Yu in the Demon-Suppression Bureau, he himself would not escape death either.

Xu Ye did not stop. Instead, his grip tightened more and more.

It seemed he truly intended to strangle Su Yu to death.

Unable to breathe, Su Yu kept slapping at Xu Ye's hand.

Xu Ye remained unmoved, his eyes filled with killing intent.

Seeing this, Zhao Heng and Lin Yuyan both felt their hearts skip a beat.

Even the air seemed to have turned cold.

"What is wrong with this guy?"

They felt as if Xu Ye had become an entirely different person.

Even when Xu Ye had killed the old weasel demon, his killing intent had not been this intense.

In Xu Ye's current state, merely looking at him filled them with fear.

"Xu Ye! Don't be impulsive!" Du Yuanxiu anxiously gripped Xu Ye's hand.

Seeing that Su Yu was about to be crushed to death, Du Yuanxiu even used spiritual power, increasing his strength. "If you kill him, you won't get away either. Don't lose the big picture over a small matter."
