At Ease

"My lord, you must be joking. I never said that, and I'm not familiar with this person either. I was merely passing by."

Hearing this, Vast Sky hurriedly shook his head and waved his hands. What a joke—Kirin had been dealt with so easily, let alone anyone else.

"If he didn't say it, then you did!"

Seeing this, Yang Ming smiled faintly and looked at Jade Blood beside him.

Jade Blood shook her head repeatedly.

"What a joke. How could I have said something like that? I've never known him. I only just arrived here, my lord. You've misunderstood!"

He was no fool. Faced with the overbearing Yang Ming, he naturally had to back down.

"Hmph!"

Yang Ming snorted softly, too lazy to pursue the matter, and turned his gaze toward Zhang Liancheng.

"My lord, spare my life!"

Zhang Liancheng was terrified out of his wits. Over the past few days, he had relied on Naruto's prestige to mock and ridicule Yang Ming, believing that while Yang Ming had some strength, he was nothing compared to the true prodigies.

He had never expected the other party to be a true giant!

He was immediately scared out of his mind and begged for forgiveness!

After all, if someone like this killed him, there would be no consequences at all.

Yang Ming had not provoked him. On the contrary, he had been the one to provoke Yang Ming first.

"My lord, please show mercy. We will certainly reward you generously!"

Seeing Yang Ming turn his gaze toward Zhang Liancheng, the steward beside him hurriedly pleaded for mercy.

Naturally, he knew what Zhang Liancheng had done. How could offending such a powerful expert possibly end well?

But why would Yang Ming pay him any mind?

He reached out and grabbed through the air.
