Chapter 2174 Between the Fingers

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Zhang He was determined to teach the other party a lesson.

The short sword in his hand was fast and ruthless; normally, it should have directly pierced through the shoulder.

But the result was far beyond his expectation; the short sword struck the shoulder as if it had hit an iron plate, not only failing to pierce the skin but also leaving no trace at all.

“This…”

Zhang He was startled. Although he knew Ye Bufan was a Body Cultivator, that was only Minor Achievement, which was nothing under his hands.

But he never expected that even with his full power, he couldn't injure the other party in the slightest.

Could it be that the other party had already reached Major Achievement in Body Refining? How was this possible?

At this point, he couldn't care less. He swung the short sword again, stabbing towards Ye Bufan's chest.

This time, he held nothing back, using all his strength. With True Qi infused, the short sword was enough to split mountains and rocks.

This strike fiercely hit the chest, followed by a crack. The short sword actually broke into two pieces, while Ye Bufan remained completely unharmed.

“Uh…”

Zhang He was completely shocked. The other person wasn't even fighting back, yet he couldn't hurt him. What was the point of persisting?

“Very surprised? It seems your Jianghu experience is too shallow.”

Ye Bufan smiled slightly, “Had enough chopping? It's my turn now!”

With that, he reached out, directly grabbed the other party's neck, lifted him up, and threw him to the ground like a broken sack, then sealed his acupuncture points with a finger.

Zhang He was filled with horror. He, a dignified Void Tempering expert, was like a small chicken in front of the other party, completely without any resistance.

“You… when did you become so powerful?”

A few days ago, he had personally presided over the New Talent Ranking Tournament. At that time, although Ye Bufan was strong, he was only strong among Young man, and completely incomparable to an expert like him.

He never expected that just a few days later, he would have no resistance in front of the other person.

Ye Bufan just smiled and ignored him, turning his head to look aside. At this moment, Xiao Qing and Zhongli Mei's battle had already begun.

Compared to the previous Ma Yuanwu, Zhongli Mei was much smarter. Knowing he couldn't win, he didn't confront directly, instead adopting a strategy of circling and delaying, hoping that Zhang He could quickly control Ye Bufan.

But Xiao Qing's strength was too great. Even so, he couldn't completely evade, and was ultimately sent flying backward by the force of her punch.

He slammed heavily into a large tree and slid to the ground, a trace of fresh blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

“Old thing, you broke my game console. All of you can go to hell.”

Xiao Qing rushed over with Killing Intent.

Zhongli Mei turned his head to glance at the subdued Zhang He, a look of despondent bitterness appearing on his face.

He had already tried his best to overestimate this Young man, and his preparations were not inadequate, but he still failed in the end.

Knowing that he was doomed to die, he simply closed his eyes, waiting for death to arrive.

“Alright, don't kill him!”

Just then, a figure flashed from the nearby bushes, and Ye Bufan stopped Xiao Qing.

It turned out that he had guessed a crisis was coming. After testing Ye Erlang's cultivation, the two of them had swapped identities.

He hid in the dark, letting Ye Erlang stand in the open to attract the enemy's firepower, and this trick indeed worked.

“No, these damned things broke my game console, I must kill them!”

Thinking that she would never be able to play interesting Tetris again, Xiao Qing's Killing Intent soared, and she brandished her fists, ready to act.

“This is for you.”

At the critical moment, Ye Bufan flipped his wrist, magically producing another game console.

“Oh, it's a game console!”

Xiao Qing's eyes immediately lit up. She snatched it into her hand, and the anger in her heart vanished.

“Alright, consider yourself lucky, Old thing.”

After saying that, she happily ran to the side again to play Tetris.

Having finally appeased the little girl's anger, Ye Bufan secretly rejoiced.

He had cleared out the supermarket because the space in his Storage Ring was large enough, and now it seemed it was very necessary.

A game console worth a dozen yuan could actually save the life of a Void Tempering expert. This deal was truly worthwhile.

Zhongli Mei, who was slumped on the ground, was completely dumbfounded. He never expected to have his life saved like this, and what shocked him even more was how there were suddenly two Ye Bufans in front of him?

“You… you… which of you is real?”

Not only him, but Zhang He on the side was also completely stunned. The two people in front of them looked exactly alike, and they couldn't tell any difference.

“I am real, that is my Puppet.”

Ye Bufan stepped forward and sealed Zhongli Mei's acupuncture points, then turned back and put away Ye Erlang.

“This…”

Zhong

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Li Mei's face was extremely ugly. He had thought he was cunning, having sent Zhang He as an undercover agent in advance.

He never expected that the other party was already prepared, and he had been played in the palm of their hand all along.

Zhang He's old face also turned liver-colored. It was ridiculous that he had previously mocked the other party for having no Jianghu experience, but now looking back, he was the one who was ridiculous.

At the same time, both of them were extremely shocked by Ye Bufan's strength. The previous one was a Puppet. Not to mention how lifelike it was, making it impossible to distinguish which was real and which was fake.

Its strength alone was truly terrifying. What kind of person could create such a powerful Puppet, one that was even a hundred times stronger than himself?

Ye Bufan ignored their emotions and said directly, “Now I give you two paths: either surrender and become my servants, or die.”

The reason he didn't kill Zhang He and Zhongli Mei was because he felt they would still be useful in the future.

Firstly, Shui Mu University's strength was still too weak. If Lei Yun Sect sent people to launch a sneak attack, he would be in a difficult position.

If a Void Tempering expert were sent to guard it, it would be much safer.

Additionally, on this trip to the Great Shun Empire, although their group was powerful, they were still too young.

Having a Void Tempering expert by their side could also be useful at times.

“This…”

The two of them were clearly surprised. At this moment, they involuntarily fell silent.

They had both been high-ranking Void Tempering experts before, and suddenly having to submit to a Young man, they were still somewhat hesitant.

Ye Bufan frowned, “I don't have time to waste with you. Make up your minds quickly.”

“I am willing to submit.”

Zhang He was the first to give his answer.

He had now left the Daxing Empire Imperial Family, a lone wolf, and attaching himself to a strong person was the best choice.

But Zhongli Mei was still undecided. He was the Grand Elder of Shenjian Villa, and making this decision was still somewhat difficult.

Zhang He persuaded, “Elder Zhong, you have reached your limit at Shenjian Villa, and it's impossible for you to achieve anything else in your lifetime.

Dr. Ye has exceptional talent and outstanding ability, he is a rare Alchemy Great Master. Submitting might be our Opportunity.

So don't hesitate any longer, make your decision quickly!”

“Alright then, I also choose to submit.”

Zhongli Mei finally made his decision as well.
