Supremely Talented Tyrant
Chapter 954 - 953: You'll be alright...

"I've always wondered just how beautiful Ye Linglan could be. Now that I've seen her in person, she truly is otherworldly!" Clearly, however, Ye Tianguang wasn't interested in wasting time in conversation with Ye Chunliang and instead shifted his gaze to Ye Linglan. The mockery in his eyes was instantly replaced by an awe-struck admiration...

"You… what are you doing?!"

Noticing Ye Tianguang's eyes slowly change, Ye Chunliang instantly sensed impending danger. He roared in anger, stepping forward and shielding Ye Linglan behind him...

She is his sister. He could die—but his sister must not!

"Move aside, now!"

Ye Tianguang's mouth twisted into a lecherous grin. With a casual wave of his hand, a long blade appeared in his grip. Grinning wickedly at Ye Chunliang, he chuckled darkly, "You're about to taste what real pain feels like!"

As soon as his words fell, the long blade struck down under the horrified and desperate gazes of Ye Chunliang and Ye Linglan. It cleaved into Ye Chunliang's left arm without hesitation, slicing straight through and severing it completely!

"Ahhh!"

A piercing scream of agony erupted from Ye Chunliang's lips. His eyes widened in shock, cold sweat poured down his forehead like a rainfall, and his severed left hand fell to the ground, twitching feebly.

Blood gushed from the severed stump of Ye Chunliang's arm, pooling rapidly beneath him, painting the ground a horrifying crimson within mere seconds.

"Chunliang!"

Ye Linglan's heart-wrenching cry reverberated through the room. Her shrill voice was filled with sorrow and despair; her tear-filled eyes had turned bloodshot. At that moment, her only desperate hope was for Hao Jian to appear by their side, to shield her from the storm and bring the light back to her sky...

"You… you'll… be… alright!"

Her hands trembled as they frantically worked, fumbling over Ye Chunliang's body, especially around the gaping wound. She tried desperately to stanch the flow of blood with torn fabric, but no matter how hard she tried, the blood continued to flow, unstoppable like a bubbling spring.

"Sister… I'm fine!"

Lying on the ground in unbearable pain, Ye Chunliang forced a smile. He reached out with his only remaining right hand, grinning through clenched teeth. "Sister… my brother-in-law… Brother Hao… will avenge me!"

"Don't talk! Stop talking!"

As Ye Chunliang's words spilled out, blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. The sight filled Ye Linglan with terror. Her head shook frantically, her tears falling like a broken string of pearls, landing on Ye Chunliang's pale face. His pallor darkened further, guilt roiling within him for making his sister cry!

"Hahaha! So this is what they call sibling love? How touching!" Watching the siblings' desperate exchange, Ye Tianguang smirked triumphantly. He slowly bent down, grabbed Ye Linglan by the collar, and hoisted her up. His vile grin reappeared. "Kid, what would happen if I forced myself on your sister right in front of you? Would it make you furious enough to drop dead?"

"Hahaha! Boss, that's a great idea! It'd be a waste to simply kill her. Better to let us brothers have some fun first—at least then she'd die knowing some pleasure!"

"Precisely! Boss, we've been secluded in the back mountains training for years, far from any women. Now that such a rare beauty is in front of us, it's just too tempting to resist!"

"Heh, heh! Doing this in front of the little brother… imagining it is already exhilarating!"

"Fools!"

Suddenly, Ye Tianguang slapped the heads of the men who had spoken, causing them to grimace in pain. They went silent instantly, their expressions confused. Was the boss angry over what they said?

Realizing this possibility, their faces stiffened nervously. They knew when their boss got angry, it was no joke!

But Ye Tianguang's next words made them all breathe a sigh of relief: "Do you think a fragile beauty like her could survive if you bunch of brutes handled her so carelessly?!"

"If you're going to do anything, at least find a better place to do it. How could you enjoy yourselves in such a filthy environment?"

"Haha! Boss is right! Let's relocate!"

As these men shamelessly discussed their atrocities, Ye Linglan's once-beautiful face turned absolutely ghostly. White as a sheet, her expression was filled with grief and despair. She had only intended to take her brother out for a casual outing, but she never imagined things would turn into such a nightmare. Now, she was about to fall into the clutches of these despicable villains...

Hao Jian, where are you right now?!

"You… you dare hurt me? Hao Jian won't let any of you escape!"

At this moment, Ye Linglan could only invoke Hao Jian's name in a desperate attempt to frighten them into caution.

"If anything happens to me, your deaths will be miserable!"

All she needed to do was hold on until Hao Jian arrived. Once he was here, even if these people wanted to escape, they wouldn't stand a chance. She knew Hao Jian's strength better than anyone—no matter how powerful Ye Tianguang seemed, he was no match for him!

"Hao Jian?"

Ye Tianguang's expression turned strange when he heard that name. But then he burst into laughter. "You're actually waiting for Hao Jian to save you? Haha! You shouldn't bother clinging to false hope. He's probably already dead by now. We've set up an inescapable net. With his abilities, there's no way he could've gotten out alive!"

"You… you're saying Hao Jian is dead?!" Upon hearing about the trap designed for Hao Jian, Ye Linglan's face turned even paler. Her hand clutched Ye Chunliang's remaining right arm tightly, her palm slick with sweat...

"That's right! He's as good as dead!"

Relief and satisfaction filled Ye Tianguang as he thought about finally eliminating Hao Jian, along with the two siblings. These three had always been a dangerous thorn in Ye Heavenly Mansion's side. Ending them brought him immense comfort, like dislodging a knife jammed in his throat.

"Who are you saying is dead?"

Suddenly, a calm voice came from outside. Ye Tianguang didn't initially process it and casually chuckled in reply, "Obviously, Hao Jian!"

"That little pest dared stand against Ye Heavenly Mansion. It's a blessing he's disappeared now, or I would've ensured his death was one hundred times slower!"

Although Ye Tianguang hadn't met Hao Jian or heard his voice, Ye Chunliang and Ye Linglan, who were on the brink of losing consciousness, recognized it instantly. Their faces lit up with excitement upon hearing that voice. Ye Linglan exhaled shakily, feeling her heart finally settle.

He's finally here…

As long as Hao Jian was present, they'd be safe. This was an unshakable truth in their hearts—Hao Jian had always been the one who resolved every crisis completely, regardless of who his enemies were. He was always the last one standing with a victorious smile.

"Hao Jian!"

Ye Linglan exclaimed in joy...

"Shwoosh!"

Before her words fell completely, a gentle breeze brushed past her. In the next moment, a figure appeared in front of her. Although slender, his presence felt towering in her eyes...

"Who did this?"

Hao Jian crouched down slowly, examining the wounded Ye Chunliang. His expression shifted drastically. Extending his fingers, he pressed several acupoints around the stump of Ye Chunliang's severed arm. Instantly, the once-gushing blood ceased entirely, as though someone had shut a floodgate.

This sight made Ye Tianguang's pupils contract sharply. Such masterful acupoint pressing—nothing in Ye Heavenly Mansion could match it! To stop bleeding from a wound this severe with a few precise presses… it was unthinkable!

"Hao Jian?!"

Ye Tianguang finally connected the dots, his face now etched with shock.

"How is this possible?! Ye Haozhi was supposed to be targeting you. How could you escape our inescapable net?!"

Ye Haozhi had been leading a team poised to deploy the Revolving Great Array! A formation of forty martial artists—powerful enough to trap him. Could it be that Ye Haozhi never encountered Hao Jian?!

"Ye Haozhi?"

Hao Jian allowed himself a faint smile. Casually, he lifted his hand, revealing a blood-soaked head. With an indifferent motion, he flung it in front of Ye Tianguang. "Are you talking about this guy?"

"I took care of him on the way here. Along with all forty of his men—they're all dealt with…"

"You… that's… impossible!"

The Revolving Great Array... how could he have dismantled it?! And he seemed utterly unharmed—how could such a person even exist?!

"Nothing is impossible!"

Hao Jian, now visibly irritated, waved his hand impatiently. Then, reaching out, he ruffled Ye Linglan's hair gently, smiling. "Don't worry. I'm here now..."

"Mhm…"

Ye Linglan nodded obediently, her panic subsiding at last. Just having Hao Jian beside her was enough to make her feel completely secure…

"Now then, it's time to settle this score…"

After comforting Ye Linglan, Hao Jian straightened himself. Turning gradually to face Ye Tianguang, the corners of his mouth curled into a chilling grin. "So, tell me, should I flay you—or burn you alive?"

"Or maybe I should sever all your limbs and toss you into an anthill, letting them strip your flesh piece by piece. What do you think?"

"Brat! Watch your mouth!"

One of Ye Tianguang's men, enraged, drew his blade and charged forward. Swinging his weapon down toward Hao Jian, the lackey yelled furiously, "You're just some overconfident kid! What kind of power could you possibly have? Let me deal with you myself!"

"No!"

Catching sight of his subordinate's rash action, Ye Tianguang hastened to shout…
