"You little bastard, you're asking for death!"
"Daring to make trouble at the Li Residence, go die!"
"Kill him!"
The over ten servants of the Li Family roared in anger one by one, drawing their weapons and charging forward, surrounding Ye Yunfei.
After all, the Li Family was considered a major clan within the imperial capital. Although they were merely servants of the Li Family, they always felt superior in front of outsiders—how could they endure such provocation?
Shh!
A pitch-black dagger flashed through the air, swift as lightning.
Then,
Thud! Thud! Thud!...
The heads of those dozen or so Li Family servants successively separated from their necks, soaring high into the air as blood splattered wildly.
It looked like balls being tossed into mid-air.
Standing amidst over ten bloody corpses, Ye Yunfei raised his head and looked up at the two characters above the gate—'Li Residence'—giving a cold, contemptuous smile.
Suddenly,
With a tap of his toes, Ye Yunfei leaped into the air, throwing a punch directly at the characters 'Li Residence'.
Boom! Rumble!...
The gate of the Li Residence suffered a tremendous impact, collapsing instantly, with dirt and stones scattering and dust billowing.
The rumbling roar was deafening.
The imposing, stately gate of the Li Residence was completely reduced to rubble!
"What's happening!"
"What's going on? Is it an earthquake?"
...
Within the Li Residence, a deathly silence descended for a moment before panicked shouts one after another broke out incessantly, the entire estate falling into chaos.
Ye Yunfei's punch that destroyed the gate sent an immense thunderous noise resonating outward. Immediately, many people on the surrounding streets, drawn by the sound, gathered around the Li Residence to watch the spectacle.
"Look!
The gate of the Li Residence has actually collapsed!
What in the world is going on?"
"Who is that youth, standing before the gate of the Li Residence? What does he intend to do?"
"Look quickly—those servants guarding the Li Residence's gate have all been killed!
Could it be the work of that youth?"
...
Surrounding the Li Residence were several bustling streets, so within an extremely short time, a large crowd of onlookers had gathered, packing the area so densely inside and out that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
"Patrol of the Capital Army is coming!
Get out of the way quickly!"
Suddenly, the crowd gathered around the Li Residence grew restless, hurrying to dodge to the sides, clearing a broad path.
Then,
A troop of cavalry came galloping forth. Each cavalryman wielded a sharp spear, their armor stained with blood, radiating a sharp, intimidating aura.
The Capital Army was the most elite force under the Imperial Royal Family of the Great Qin Empire, personally led by Grand Marshal Sima and stationed near the imperial capital.
The capital's peacekeeping duties also fell under the jurisdiction of the Capital Army.
Every day within the capital, patrols of the Capital Army maintained order throughout the city.
This particular patrol happened to be on duty near the gate of the Li Residence. Upon hearing the noise, they immediately rushed over.
"Kid, who are you!
Why has the gate of the Li Residence collapsed!"
The troop of cavalry spotted Ye Yunfei at first glance, demanding harshly.
After all, Ye Yunfei stood out conspicuously—alone before the demolished gate of the Li Residence.
"Scram!
It's best not to disturb me.
Otherwise, bear the consequences yourselves."
Without even turning his head, Ye Yunfei spoke indifferently.
"Audacious!"
Ye Yunfei's words thoroughly enraged those cavalrymen.
"A brat still smelling of his mother's milk dares be so disrespectful! Regardless of his identity, apprehend him first!"
One by one, they raised their spears and charged toward Ye Yunfei.
Shh!
A streak of black light, like a swift bolt of lightning, flashed past.
The heads of the three cavalrymen charging at the forefront successively flew off as blood sprayed out like a fountain…
The speed of the Void Blade was too fast; those three cavalrymen lost their lives before they even knew what happened.
"Kid, you're too bold, killing men of our Capital Army!"
The remaining cavalrymen at the back were startled, yet they mustered courage to shout reproachfully, though all their actions halted.
"If you don't want to die, scram immediately."
Ye Yunfei said lightly.
"We'll report back at once!"
Surprisingly, the remaining cavalrymen dared not attack Ye Yunfei further, wheeling their horses around and galloping back to make their report.
"This kid is too audacious, even killing patrolmen of the Capital Army!"
"The Capital Army is commanded by Grand Marshal Sima. If this matter reaches the Grand Marshal's ears, he certainly won't let this kid off!"
"This kid's method of killing is a bit terrifying; I couldn't see at all how he managed it!"
...
All around, the crowd of onlookers felt astonished, whispering and discussing excitedly.
"Look!
That young man is heading into the Li Residence!"
Suddenly, someone shouted loudly.
Sure enough, with hands clasped behind his back, Ye Yunfei lifted his steps and began walking into the Li Residence, pace by pace.
By this moment,
Inside the Li Residence, many people were already rushing outward toward the direction of the gate.
"Kid, who are you?
You're not from our Li Residence. Why have you barged in without any notice!"
Soon, those rushing out from within came face-to-face with Ye Yunfei. Initially stunned, they then sensed something amiss and shouted accusingly at him.
Because Ye Yunfei stood with hands behind his back, his expression cold and detached, advancing slowly, carrying an overwhelmingly powerful aura.
"Summon Li Jianjun at once—tell him to get out here and face me."
Ye Yunfei said plainly.
"You dare be insolent!
How dare you address the Patriarch directly by name! That's a grave offense!"
"Damn bastard! Open your eyes wide—look where this is!
Our Li Residence is no place for you to stir up trouble!"
"Seize this little bastard first!"
...
Ye Yunfei's words made those members of the Li Family erupt with rage, one by one drawing their weapons and charging toward him murderously.
"Slay!"
Expressionless, Ye Yunfei uttered a soft command.
Shh!
A pitch-black dagger, like a streak of black lightning, flashed past.
Those who charged toward him found their heads soaring off one after another.
Bang! Bang!...
Then over a dozen headless corpses collapsed to the ground simultaneously, blood flowing everywhere.
After mastering the Flying Sword Art, Ye Yunfei could control the Void Blade to attack targets within a kilometer, and its speed was astonishingly fast.
The Void Blade inherently possessed the characteristic of traveling through the void, while the Flying Sword Art could fuse his own spiritual power and Soul Power within the flying sword to slay foes.
Combining the Void Blade with the Flying Sword Art simply doubled its lethal power!
"Murder!
That youth is the murderer!"
From afar, Li Family members kept rushing out. Seeing the dozen headless corpses lying before Ye Yunfei, they all cried out in alarm.
"Little bastard, go to hell!"
A Li Family member possessing mid-level Earth Realm strength charged forward swiftly, shouting in fury as he raised the broadsword in his hand and hacked at Ye Yunfei.
Shh!
A black light abruptly appeared, flashing right through his neck.
With a splat, the man's head flew off.
This scene caused the expressions of the other Li Family members charging forward to change drastically.
"Those who block my path shall die!"
Ye Yunfei said coldly, continuing to walk deeper into the Li Residence.
"Attack together!
Kill this little bastard!"
At that moment, another dozen or so Li Family members, gripping weapons, charged to slay Ye Yunfei.
Shh!
The Void Blade reappeared, transforming into a black streak that dashed toward them.
Thud! Thud! Thud!...
One head after another kept flying away, tumbling onto the ground nearby.
From the necks of one headless corpse after another, blood spurted upward like gushing fountains.
After slaughtering these people, Ye Yunfei suddenly opened his mouth and took a deep, deep breath—like a whale sucking in a river—instantly draining all air within thirty meters around him.
Then,
"Li Jianjun! Get out here and face your death!"
Ye Yunfei roared out.
This roar was akin to thunder tearing clear skies apart, its force utterly terrifying.
