Chapter 2276 The Gap is Too Big
“Greetings, Your Majesty!”
Upon seeing Tuoba Shang, Pan Sheng immediately ran over, knelt down with a thud, and bowed deeply. Zheng Wei and Zheng Yiheng followed suit, kneeling behind him.
“This is Ye Bufan, who was previously wanted. Now he dares to attack me. I ask Your Majesty to uphold justice for me!”
Pan Sheng immediately lodged a complaint. In his opinion, the Emperor was there to support him, and there was no doubt about it.
Zheng Wei also chimed in, “That’s right, this humble citizen can testify for the Imperial Uncle.”
The two spoke in concert, but what they never expected was that after Tuoba Shang walked over, he kicked Pan Sheng flying.
Then, without even looking at the Zheng family uncle and nephew, he humbly walked up to Ye Bufan.
“Dr. Ye, I am truly sorry. These blind fools have angered you!”
After he finished speaking, everyone present was utterly shocked. This outcome was absolutely beyond anyone’s expectation.
No one had imagined that the current Emperor would be so humble towards this Young man, immediately admitting his mistake upon meeting him.
One must know that he was His Majesty the Emperor, the Dominator of the entire Daxing Empire.
Pan Sheng had just gotten up from the ground, now completely dumbfounded. He had no idea what was happening before his eyes.
The same went for Zheng Wei and Zheng Yiheng. A bad premonition arose in their hearts. Things seemed to be completely different from what they had expected.
Ye Bufan was not surprised by Tuoba Shang’s arrival. After all, this was in the Great Xing Imperial City, and he had not deliberately hidden his whereabouts, so it was not difficult for the other party to find him.
He said, “This fellow is very arrogant. I heard he’s the Imperial Uncle!”
Although he spoke calmly, Tuoba Shang still felt immense pressure.
“No matter who he is, it’s all up to you to decide.”
He was a smart person and did not let his position on the throne go to his head. If someone could help him ascend to the throne, they could also kick him off.
Moreover, there was never any familial affection among the imperial family. He could even seize his own father’s position, so why would he care about an older brother-in-law?
Ye Bufan said indifferently, “He just said he wanted to break my limbs and steal my woman. What do you think should be done?”
“This…”
Cold sweat instantly trickled down Tuoba Shang’s forehead, and he cursed this fool in his heart for being utterly oblivious to death.
This person was capable of easily slaying even the Imperial Old Ancestor, and yet you want to steal his woman and break his limbs? There are better ways to court death than this.

method.
The most crucial thing is, if you die, what if it implicates my newly acquired throne?
The Kunlun Continent has always respected the strong, and his own fate was in the other person’s hands.
At this moment, he dared not raise any objections and simply waved his hand at a nearby guard.
“Cut off his head for me!”
“This…”
After Tuoba Shang spoke, the entire audience was shocked, each unable to believe their ears.
That was the current Imperial Uncle! How could he be killed just because an outsider said so? They couldn't understand why His Majesty the Emperor was so afraid of this Young man.
Cold sweat seeped from the backs of Zheng Wei and Zheng Yiheng. They had originally thought that by bringing out the Imperial Uncle, they had the entire Daxing Empire backing them.
But they never expected that when His Majesty the Emperor arrived, he would instead order Pan Sheng’s head to be cut off.
Pan Sheng was the most shocked. He never imagined that such a result awaited him.
“Your Majesty, did you say that wrong? I am the Imperial Uncle! The one who should be killed is this brat!”
Tuoba Shang, however, remained unmoved and shouted at the somewhat bewildered guards, “What are you still standing there for? Didn’t you hear my command?”
“Yes!”
Only then did the two guards confirm that His Majesty the Emperor truly intended to kill the Imperial Uncle and was not joking.
The two immediately drew their sabers and kicked Pan Sheng to the ground.
“Emperor, Your Majesty, spare my life! My sister is your Empress…”
Pan Sheng still didn't know what kind of existence he had provoked, and he even tried to use the Empress to save his life.
Tuoba Shang simply turned his head away, not even looking at him.
The two guards, without any hesitation, brought their blades down, directly severing his head.
Even in death, Pan Sheng’s eyes were wide open, unable to understand how he had died like this.
Tuoba Shang waved his hand, and someone immediately dragged the body away.
The reason he executed Pan Sheng on the spot was to show Ye Bufan that he was not being partial.
At this moment, the Zheng family uncle and nephew were so scared their legs turned to jelly. If even the Imperial Uncle was executed on the spot, what about the two of them? Wouldn't they also be in grave danger?
Indeed, Tuoba Shang respectfully asked again, “Dr. Ye, how should these two be dealt with?”
Ye Bufan ignored him and walked directly to the Zheng family uncle and nephew, sighing, “I just said, isn’t it better for you to live well?
(Chapter not finished, please turn the page)
Why do you insist on seeking death?”
“Dr. Ye, we were wrong. This time, we truly know we were wrong.”
Zheng Wei said nervously, “Please, in your magnanimity, forgive us this once. I promise I will never provoke Dr. Ye again.”
Ye Bufan looked at him and said, “You know you were wrong? Then tell me, where did you go wrong?”
“I…”
Zheng Wei paused, evidently not expecting such a question, but then immediately said, “I was wrong for not opposing Dr. Ye!”
“That’s not where you went wrong. Your mistake is having eyes but being blind, unable to see the gap between you and me.”
Ye Bufan shook his head, looking mockingly at the two people before him.
“Do you think that by instigating an Imperial Uncle and relying on the imperial family, you’ve found a backer to contend with me? You are far, far off.
I'll tell you, this Emperor was put on the throne by me. If I tell him to be Emperor, he will be. If I tell him to abdicate, he will immediately abdicate.”
“This…”
Zheng Wei and Zheng Yiheng both looked horrified. Although they knew Ye Bufan was powerful, they never imagined he was powerful to this extent.
Seeing Tuoba Shang standing respectfully by the side without any reaction, they knew that what he said was indeed true.
At this moment, they realized the gap between themselves and Ye Bufan. They had wanted to rely on the imperial family for revenge, but the imperial family was nothing in his eyes.
“Dr. Ye, spare our lives! We truly know we were wrong!”
The Zheng family uncle and nephew simultaneously knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly for mercy.
“Who can you blame when you sought death yourselves? When you become ghosts, open your eyes wider.”
This was not the first time the Zheng family had caused him trouble, so Ye Bufan naturally showed no mercy.
With a flash of light in his hand, the heads of Zheng Wei and Zheng Yiheng flew off directly.
Tuoba Shang then ordered someone to dispose of the bodies, then took out a Storage Ring and respectfully handed it over.
“Dr. Ye, this is five million High-Grade Spirit Stones. Please check it.”
Ye Bufan reached out, and the ring landed in his palm. Inside were exactly five million High-Grade Spirit Stones, not one less.
“Alright, our transaction is complete.”
Ye Bufan put away the Storage Ring. Since the matter was settled, there was no need to remain here.
He led everyone directly out of the Great Xing Imperial City and headed towards the location of the teleportation array that Luo Yudie had mentioned.
