At the same time, this force pulled him down towards the ground.
Ye Bei's face changed dramatically.
Before he could react, there was a boom as he crashed into the ground.
When he struggled to climb up, he suddenly noticed a deck chair on the nearby road.
Lying on the chair was a figure in a black robe, legs crossed nonchalantly. Beside him sat an arrogant-looking dog...no, Ao Qing the beast of prey.
"Who are you?"
Clutching his chest, Ye Bei frowned at the figure in black, but could discern nothing.
The man in black completely ignored him, continuing to recline on the chair as if basking in the sunlight, without even glancing at him.
"I'm asking you, who exactly are you?"
Despite facing someone he could not see through, the previous attack coupled with the current contempt immediately filled Ye Bei with anger, causing him to yell loudly at the man in black.
But as soon as Ye Bei spoke, the black-robed man sitting on the deck chair suddenly stood up violently.
His palm slowly extended.
Then, suddenly pressed down!
"Crack!"
"Ah!"
A piercing sound rang out, accompanied by Ye Bei's shrill scream, as the bones in both his legs snapped directly.
"Boom!"
With his leg bones shattered, Ye Bei, who had just climbed to his feet, fell directly to his knees, his eyes now filled with thick fear as he stared fixedly at the black-robed man before him.
"Do you admit your mistake?"
Finally, a cold voice issued from beneath the black robes.
Ye Bei gritted his teeth stubbornly, his face full of unwillingness. The intense pain also caused beads of cold sweat to roll down his forehead.
However, his moment of hesitation directly caused the black-robed man to vanish. By the time Ye Bei regained his senses, the man was already standing right in front of him.
A palm landed directly on Ye Bei's neck, lifting him up.
"I'll ask you again, do you admit your mistake?"
The cold voice sounded again from beneath the black robes.
"I...I admit my mistake..."
This time, Ye Bei did not dare hesitate at all, stuttering out the words hurriedly from his throat.
Boom!
Ye Bei crashed back to the ground. But when he lifted his head, he realized the black-robed man had somehow returned to the deck chair.
This sight scared Ye Bei so much his heart nearly jumped out of his chest.
The power of this black-robed man made him feel utterly hopeless. Even with his status as a Martial Emperor, he couldn't even catch this man's shadow.
Just who was he?
Why was he blocking his way here?
Involuntarily, he lowered his stance and asked again respectfully, "Dare I ask, senior, have I unintentionally offended you somehow, causing senior to block my path here?"
"You have not offended me." The black-robed man said.
This left Ye Bei very confused, but before he could speak, the black-robed man added heavily, "But you, have offended my master!"
"Your master?"
The black-robed man's words baffled Ye Bei at the time.
Just making contact with an existence like the black-robed man was difficult enough for him, let alone his master who must be countless times more powerful. He had probably never even seen someone like that before.
"Senior, could you have made a mistake?" Ye Bei asked gingerly.
But he had just finished speaking when it seemed to dawn on him, and he bristled, "You, you, you're from the Martial Arts Academy?"
The black-robed figure did not speak, apparently acquiescing.
Seeing this, Ye Bei swallowed hard, his forehead drenched in cold sweat.
He never could have imagined that this terrifying black-robed man actually came from the Martial Arts Academy, and from his words, even seemed to be Yi Feng's servant.
If a mere servant had so many incomprehensible abilities, how powerful must Yi Feng be?
Gulp.
He swallowed again, his face ashen.
It seemed this was an even harder iron plate than he had imagined!
At this moment, Qingshan Patriarch and the others who were traveling with Ye Bei also hurried over. Having overheard the conversation between the two, they were frightened into jumping.
Master.
Since when did he have such a powerful servant?
However, when Qingshan Patriarch saw Ao Qing beside the black-robed man, he confirmed this man was indeed from the Martial Arts Academy. After all, this dog...wolf had nearly gotten the Master killed when he was receiving them as guests.
Without another word, Qingshan Patriarch led everyone to kneel on the ground, not daring to say a thing.
"Do you know that your actions in making trouble at the Martial Arts Academy last time displeased my master greatly?" said the cold voice from beneath the black robes.
Hearing this, Ye Bei shuddered.
He hastily kowtowed, banging his head heavily on the ground, while urgently explaining, "Senior, last time I was blind and reckless, I Ye Bei was blind. I earnestly beg senior to spare my life!"
While begging for mercy, he kept signaling Qingshan Patriarch with his eyes.
But Qingshan Patriarch arrogantly turned his head away, affecting indifference.
Humph.
Brat.
First you get me into trouble, now you want me to plead for you after angering the senior. Dream on.
"Elder, why not say something on his behalf, he is my brother-in-law now after all." Beside him, Zhu Yun cautiously murmured.
"Like hell I will!"
Qingshan Patriarch slapped him across the face.
ave】 Shen Qingling was a man with peerless looks, a cunning mind, and the ability to play both the aloof noble and the innocent sweetheart—a master of seduction who could outplay any player. But after an untimely death, he found himself bound to a system and transmigrated into the tragic "true young master" of a melodramatic novel. In the original story, his childhood sweetheart treated him as a backup plan, his fiancée swore to break off their engagement for the sake of the "fake young master," and his own sister saw him as the family's disgrace. He was nothing more than a rat everyone wanted to stomp on. System 077: "Your mission is to change the original fate and conquer the goddesses." Shen Qingling: "Thanks for the invite. If seduction had tiers, I’d be max level." His childhood sweetheart knelt, begging for forgiveness: "Qingling, I was wrong. Please give me another chance." His ex-fiancée refused to marry anyone else: "Shen Qingling, I was blind before. In this life, I’ll marry no one but you." A yandere CEO went mad for love: "Shen Qingling, you can only like me. I’ll stop at nothing to make you mine!" His green-tea sister clung to him daily: "Brother, look at me, won’t you? I’m more obedient than them—I love you the most~" At first, they scorned and trampled on him. Later, they burned themselves like moths to a flame, all for his sake. His looks were his weapon, his sweet words the bait—heroines obsessed over him, villains turned to madness for him. Shen Qingling became a true male siren, igniting battlefield after battlefield of women fighting for his affection. Years later, when System 077—now one of the elites—was asked how to become as outstanding as it, it lazily exhaled a smoke ring and replied: "Just know how to cheer ‘666’ at the right time."

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart?
