Ye Ling's words fell, and the surrounding Ji family soldiers also rushed towards Ye Ling, thrusting their spears at him.
However, before the Ji family soldiers could get close to Ye Ling, they all exploded, and scarlet blood instantly stained the gate of the Ji mansion.
The Ji family soldiers who hadn't kept up behind, as well as the civilians watching from the street, were all stunned.
"You..."
Seeing that all the soldiers who had attacked Ye Ling had self-destructed, Yan Feiying immediately realized that Ye Ling was even stronger than she had imagined. Her reason, which had been clouded by anger, quickly returned. She retreated repeatedly, and at the same time ordered the Ji family soldiers, "All of you, retreat, don't get close to him!"
Ye Ling smiled when he saw Yan Feiying regain her senses, and then said, "It seems you can still understand the situation... Actually, I don't want to kill too many people this time."
Yan Feiying pursed her lips and asked Ye Ling, "Who exactly are you? Why are you here at the Ji family?"
"I just want to ask one thing." Ye Ling took out Baima's bead and asked Yan Feiying, "This bead, you gave it to Baima's mother, didn't you?"
"That's right, this was my dowry for my daughter."
Yan Feiying did not deny it and readily admitted it. Then she asked Ye Ling again, "You came to the Ji family just to confirm this matter?"
"Of course not just that." Ye Ling smiled and asked, "Where did this bead come from?"
Yan Feiying replied, "A master gave it to me."
Ye Ling: "Who is that master?"
Yan Feiying shook her head, "I'm sorry... I cannot disclose that."
"You can't answer that?"
Ye Ling's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he took a step forward. The ground in front of Yan Feiying instantly cracked.
Seeing the power Ye Ling displayed, Yan Feiying's fear grew. She asked Ye Ling, "What exactly do you want to do?"
"I want to meet the master you mentioned," Ye Ling said with a smile.
"I don't know where he is," Yan Feiying replied.
"You really don't know?" Ye Ling raised an eyebrow.
"I really don't know," Yan Feiying affirmed. "Even if you want to destroy my Ji family, I only have this answer!"
"However, you surnamed Ye, all the strong members of my Ji family are out on campaigns. You are taking advantage of my Ji family's absence to bully an old woman like me. My Ji family will definitely settle this score!"
"And Baima!" Yan Feiying glared at Baima again, a hint of disgust flashing in her eyes. "I used to dote on you so much, but you actually colluded with outsiders to bully my Ji family... You are truly like your mother, an ungrateful wretch!"
"Grandmother?" Baima stared at Yan Feiying in disbelief, unable to imagine that she would hear such words from her own grandmother!
She and her mother were ungrateful wretches?
Although she had only visited the Ji family a few times, Yan Feiying had always treated her exceptionally well, unlike the other members of the Ji family. This was also an important reason why she had always held expectations for the Ji family.
But now, the words Yan Feiying spoke, and the ferocity on her face, made her unable to believe that this was her kind grandmother.
However, after tearing off the pretense, Yan Feiying no longer pretended. She said to Baima, "Back then, your mother insisted on breaking off the engagement with the Third Prince despite our objections and married into that remote small country of Tianlun. Not only did it make our Ji family lose face, but it also caused our Ji family to lose an ally like the Third Prince..."
"I won't mention the harm your mother caused to the Ji family. I thought that by treating you better, I could get you to send some benefits from Tianlun to our Ji family. But from the looks of it now, you are no different from your mother!"
"H-how could this be... Grandmother, I'm not..." Baima couldn't accept what Yan Feiying was saying. She retreated repeatedly, her emotions somewhat collapsing, and she no longer had the demeanor of an empress.
"That's enough, I'm not interested in hearing about your family feuds."
Ye Ling interrupted Yan Feiying's words and then said, "Yan Feiying, for Baima's sake, I'll give you one last piece of advice."
"I want to meet the person who gave you that bead. If you refuse me again, I will truly destroy your Ji family."
"This is the Great Yan Kingdom. Who dares to be so arrogant here?"
At this moment, a sharp voice came from a distance, interrupting Ye Ling's words.
Ye Ling looked in the direction of the sound and saw a pale eunuch leading a group of锦衣卫 (Imperial Guards) rushing towards them.
The commotion Ye Ling had caused in front of the Ji mansion had already reached the imperial palace.
The Great Yan Emperor personally ordered Huang Kui to lead the 锦衣卫 to assist.
Seeing the eunuch, Yan Feiying's face lit up with joy. She quickly called out, "Eunuch Huang, quickly come and help me capture this madman!"
Huang Kui, who was riding a horse, smiled and said, "Feiying, don't worry, this eunuch will definitely help you..."
"Stay out of the way, you irrelevant people."
Ye Ling's calm voice echoed out. Immediately, black chains appeared out of thin air and instantly entangled Huang Kui on his horse.
"This!!!" Huang Kui's face showed shock!
*Riiiiip!*
Before Huang Kui could even finish speaking, he was directly torn apart by the chains!
Scarlet blood splattered onto the street.
The group of 锦衣卫 who had come to reinforce had not even reacted.
Yan Feiying stared blankly at the pieces of flesh that fell to the ground, her mind a complete blank, her jaw almost dropping to the ground!
Huang Kui was the number one expert in the Great Yan Kingdom, and even on the entire White Feather Continent, he was ranked third among Grandmasters!
Such a person could shatter mountains and split rocks with a single strike, and could fight against ten thousand enemies. But now... Huang Kui was instantly killed?
This kind of method, perhaps even the invincible one in the world, couldn't achieve it!
On the other hand, Baima became somewhat numb after seeing Huang Kui's corpse.
When she was in Tianlun Kingdom, she already knew... Ye Ling was an omnipotent god... mortals could not defeat him.
Let alone Huang Kui, even if the entire Great Yan Kingdom attacked together, they might not be able to defeat Ye Ling!
"Who... who exactly are you?" Yan Feiying was completely terrified at this moment, looking at Ye Ling with a face full of fear, and asked in a startled voice.
After dealing with the people who came to interfere, Ye Ling spoke to Yan Feiying again, "I'll give you one last chance."
"I want to meet the person who gave you that bead, otherwise..."
Before Ye Ling could finish speaking, everyone in the Ji mansion was bound by an inexplicable force and suspended in mid-air.
At this moment, the Ji mansion became completely chaotic. Fear appeared on the faces of all the Ji family members, who cried out in panic, "Mistress! Save us!"
Yan Feiying looked at the suspended Ji family members with a face full of terror, her entire body trembling violently.
"Yan Feiying, you shouldn't measure me with common sense... In fact, whether it's you, or your Ji family... or even the entire Great Yan Kingdom, to me... they are all ants that can be easily crushed."
"The reason I can talk to you so much is entirely for Baima's sake. If you still don't seize this opportunity..."
As Ye Ling spoke, an image of Huoluo City appeared in the sky above Luocheng.
The Ji family soldiers stationed at the border... were now, just like the Ji family members, bound by an inexplicable force and suspended in the sky.
Tens of thousands of people were all hung in the air by Ye Ling!
Among those people were not only the commander of the three armies, Ji Ling, but also the head of the Ji family, Long Quan Ji Yan!
"This... this... how is this possible?" Yan Feiying saw the scene displayed in the air and her entire body went limp, completely engulfed by fear.
Ye Ling's power was completely beyond her imagination!
This demon should not have been from this world at all!
