However, something unimaginable happened. It was as if Wan Sheng had been fiercely hammered at the heart. All of a sudden, Wan Sheng bent over, clutching his chest, his face showing an expression of immense pain!
Everyone was stunned. They had never imagined this outcome. The young man seemed hardly to have moved, only lightly brushing Wan Sheng's chest; how had Wan Sheng turned out like this?
Ye Mei also widened her beautiful eyes, disbelievingly watching Su Chen. She knew just how strong Wan Sheng's resilience was.
Years ago, when Dragon Prosperity Society and another force were vying for territory, Wan Sheng had taken seven knives, blood pouring out, yet his face remained unchanged!
Yet now, such a ruthless man had changed so drastically from just a brush of this man's hand. It was evident how immense the damage this seemingly light touch had caused!
Although Su Chen had inflicted severe damage in the first round, he was still very unsatisfied.
"If it was before, this brush could have thrown him over five meters. Ah, this is the huge difference without Yuan Qi. Now, I can only attack using the structural weaknesses of the human body, but the effect is much worse."
Su Chen sighed to himself. Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do but slowly continue his cultivation. Luckily, he was now seeing hope.
However, only Wan Sheng truly felt how fierce Su Chen's strike had been. Although the force wasn't particularly great, it made his internal organs churn like a torrent and even gave him a tearing pain!
Despite feeling shocked, Wan Sheng knew he couldn't back down now; otherwise, he would bring great disgrace to Dragon Prosperity Society, and Lord Dragon would not let him off!
"What the hell are you standing there for? Go, take this kid down!" Wan Sheng barked at his men.
Wan Sheng's men had been restless all along, but since the rules of Dragon Prosperity Society were strict, without Wan Sheng's command, they dared not take action.
Finally, having received the order, they charged like lions breaking out of a cage.
Seeing this, Ye Mei was about to command her men to step in, but Su Chen pulled her delicate hand and whispered in her ear,
"No need for your men to intervene. I can handle this trash alone."
His words were soft, yet they carried an undeniable sense of authority. Ye Mei looked at his calm smile and finally nodded.
Su Chen watched as the crowd rushed towards him, the fierce fire that had been dormant in his heart for over a year reignited, and he once again felt that familiar sensation! It was like a beast sensing the smell of blood!
Su Chen roared and plunged into the crowd. His actions were a provocation to the men of Dragon Prosperity Society, and so they furiously attacked him.
Surprisingly, Su Chen moved through the crowd like a fish through water, striking from the skies, with ease. All their attacks only hit the air around him.
"Giving you face, and you really thought you deserved it."
The always grinning and carefree Su Chen, to everyone's surprise, suddenly delivered a loud slap to Wan Sheng.
The slap startled everyone. The onlookers couldn't believe what they had just seen, and they rubbed their eyes vigorously.
"What just happened? Can someone tell me?"
"This guy is too audacious, daring to slap Third Master in front of so many people!"
"The fight earlier could be chalked up to Third Master being outclassed, no more to be said, but this slap is a direct insult to Third Master and even the Dragon Prosperity Society!"
"Now the Dragon Prosperity Society won't let him off; he's still too young, too full of Blood Qi!"
After the shock, everyone mentally sentenced the young man to death!
Ye Mei hadn't expected the usually harmless Su Chen to suddenly make such a move. After the slap, she realized that they had truly become mortal enemies!
Oh, this guy, why so impulsive?
If it had been just the earlier conflict, she might have been able to mediate, and Boss Dragon might have spared him considering her intervention, but now?
Ye Mei knew without thinking what the outcome would be—after all, hitting someone is bad enough, but hitting the face? Well, since it all started because of me, I must protect him now.
"You dare hit me?"
Wan Sheng, touching his swollen face, was in disbelief. In his years in Jianghai, no one had ever dared to treat him like this.
"Say one more word, and I'll have you dead here today, believe it or not?"
Su Chen tilted his head slightly, his eyebrows arching as he spoke word for word to Wan Sheng.
Although his face wore a smile, Wan Sheng, whose hands were stained with countless blood, felt chilled to the bone in that moment, as if facing a supreme monarch, quashing any thought of rebellion!
Wan Sheng felt his throat go dry, truly unable to speak another word, nor daring to!
At that moment, he felt that if he really said another word, Su Chen would not hesitate to kill him!
