Chapter 540: Chapter 539: One Punch

"Qing Lian, are you alright?"

Seeing Mo Qinglian again, Mo Yunchui also heaved a sigh of relief.

"Grandfather, I’m fine." Mo Qinglian shook her head.

Mo Qinglian looked Mo Yunchui up and down, her eyes slightly reddened, "Grandfather has suffered."

Mo Yunchui smiled, "Grandpa is tough, it’s nothing."

Mo Qinglian pursed her red lips, looking at Ye Xuan beside her, feeling secretly delighted, but too shy to speak up.

"Weren’t you clamoring to become my maid? Why think of killing yourself then?" Ye Xuan teased.

At those words, Mo Qinglian’s cheeks flushed red, and she stuttered for a while but could not articulate a response.

"Maid..."

Mo Chenliang, immobilized on the spot, heard Ye Xuan’s words and saw Mo Qinglian’s expression, suddenly feeling uncomfortable inside.

Now, who didn’t know that Mo Qinglian was his fiancée, yet Ye Xuan was flirting with Mo Qinglian right in front of him!?

However, Mo Chenliang knew his current situation and dared not say anything.

Ye Xuan, hands in his pockets, walked toward Mo Chenliang with a calm expression.

Mo Chenliang tensed up inside, but maintained his composure and said, "Mr. Ye, what are you trying to do?"

Ye Xuan came in front of Mo Chenliang, looked at him indifferently, and calmly said, "Although this little girl Mo Qinglian isn’t qualified to be my maid yet, she’s not someone you can touch, understand?"

Mo Chenliang’s eyes narrowed, silently conceding.

Boom!

Ye Xuan suddenly threw a punch, striking directly at Mo Chenliang’s abdomen.

Mo Chenliang bent like a shrimp, instantly thrown back, crashing hard on the ground, clutching his stomach, his face contorted.

"I’m talking to you."

Ye Xuan stepped forward again, speaking coldly.

Malice flared in Mo Chenliang’s eyes, but the oppressive aura from Mo Yunchui left him completely immobile, unable to resist.

"If Mr. Ye is so capable, why not let Mo Yunchui lift the suppression, and we have a fair fight?"

Mo Chenliang, face somewhat contorted, looked up as Ye Xuan approached.

Ye Xuan’s lips slightly curled, standing in front of Mo Chenliang, he looked down at him and spoke slowly, "Weren’t you the one who prized the idea that all beings suffer, fate is not in one’s hand, and one should flow with the tide?"

"So, now you know to resist?"

Previously, when Mo Chenliang was speaking with Mo Qinglian, he was all platitudes, which sounded pretty clever then.

Now that the situation is on him, it seems not so great.

Mo Chenliang, although hearing the heavy irony in Ye Xuan’s words, swallowed a mouthful of blood, trying to remain calm, "When facing an irresistible force, going with the flow is acceptable, but if there’s a chance to resist, one should fight with all their might!"

Ye Xuan heard this, chuckled softly, and said, "It’s evident you’ve read quite a bit, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to spout so much nonsense."

"But why do you think you have a chance to resist?"

"Do you think you’re employing a very clever strategy with your reverse psychology?"

"Or do you believe that once Mo Yunchui withdraws his suppression, you can escape from my grasp?"

"It’s clever of you to think of so much in such a dire situation."

"But that’s all there is to it."

Ye Xuan spoke unhurriedly, directly voicing all the thoughts inside Mo Chenliang’s mind.

Mo Chenliang’s complexion turned pale.

His cunning, it seemed, had no effect in front of this youthful-looking Mr. Ye.

Yet he could clearly feel that this Mr. Ye was merely at the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm!

This was his only chance!

Mo Chenliang gritted his teeth and spoke gravely, "Mr. Ye misunderstands, I was merely upset by what you just said to my fiancée Mo Qinglian, prompting this proposal."

Ye Xuan looked at Mo Chenliang with a smirk and said, "You’re upset?"

Mo Chenliang nodded firmly, "Yes!"

Ye Xuan shook his head and chuckled, "Sorry, but your displeasure pleases me greatly."

Mo Chenliang’s face immediately darkened.

This guy isn’t playing by the rules.

"Mr. Ye, are you afraid of me?" Mo Chenliang could only continue to provoke.

"Afraid? There aren’t many in this world that Ye Xuan fears."

"Fine, I’ll give you a chance, if you can stand for one second in front of me, I’ll let you go.

Ye Xuan suppressed his smile, gently raised his hand, signaling Mo Yunchui to withdraw the suppression.

"Really?" Mo Chenliang hadn’t expected Ye Xuan to agree, and his heart leapt.

"Survive first, then talk." Ye Xuan revealed a peculiar smile.

"Does this guy really think he can stand in front of him for even a second?"

"Young Master, be careful, that guy is the top person of this generation in the Mo family!" Mo Qinglian couldn’t help but warn.

In Mo Qinglian’s memory, although Ye Xuan was very powerful, once she returned to the Mo family, she saw many, many formidable people.

This Mo Liangchen was definitely one of them.

Mo Qinglian also knew the formidability of this guy; combined with her impression of Ye Xuan’s strength remaining as it had been initially, she inevitably felt worried.

However, Mo Yunchui wasn’t afraid at all.

He had personally witnessed the scene of Mo Yunli being stunned by Ye Xuan’s thought in an instant.

This Mo Chenliang indeed had exceptional talent, being in the Longevity Realm at such a young age.

But in front of Mr. Ye, what was the Longevity Realm?

Therefore, Mo Yunchui directly obeyed Ye Xuan’s command and withdrew his oppressive aura.

Boom!

The moment Mo Yunchui withdrew his aura, Mo Chenliang’s Qi surged abruptly.

The terrifying pressure of the Longevity Realm instantly spread.

Keep in mind, a being of the Longevity Realm, within the Southern Domain, already held the status of an Elder in a major sect.

This kind of figure, indeed, held the power of life and death over many people.

It was indeed remarkable that Mo Chenliang reached such a realm at a young age.

Swoosh!

However, the moment Mo Chenliang unleashed his pressure, he unexpectedly fled directly!

From the beginning, Mo Chenliang had never intended to confront Ye Xuan outright.

He knew very well, since Ye Xuan dared to speak those words, it was sufficient to show Ye Xuan had ample confidence!

Moreover, alongside was Mo Yunchui, the Eastern Desolate Demon Slaughter.

Even if he did stand in front of Ye Xuan for a second, what then?

So, Mo Chenliang chose to take control of his fate in his own hands.

"Hm?!"

However, just as Mo Chenliang fled in an instant, he saw a dark shadow flash by.

Immediately after, an overwhelmingly strong force rushed towards him!

Mo Chenliang’s face changed immediately, even thinking that it was the Eastern Desolate Demon Slaughter who had made a move.

Boom!

Mo Chenliang was slammed back onto the ground, a bloody hole appearing in his chest.

Mo Chenliang screamed in agony.

Ye Xuan landed steadily on the ground, casually shaking his hand and looking indifferently at Mo Chenliang screaming on the ground, unhurriedly said, "Weren’t you the one who wanted a head-on confrontation with me? Why did you run away?"

"Mercy, mercy, if you kill me, the old ancestor will know immediately!"

Mo Chenliang hurriedly begged for mercy.

Mo Qinglian, witnessing the scene, was stunned speechless.

The young master was already so powerful!?

That Mo Chenliang, the truly top person of the Mo family’s younger generation, had not been able to withstand a single punch from the young master.

Mo Qinglian even felt like her eyes were deceiving her.

But reality told her, this was true!

At this moment, where was the previous demeanor of Mo Chenliang?

He looked almost like a dog.

When he was discussing those principles with Mo Qinglian earlier, how righteous and majestic Mo Chenliang had appeared.

But now that it was his turn, he remembered nothing about following the natural order.

"Are you threatening me?" Ye Xuan looked at Mo Chenliang and drawled.

"No no no, I’m just stating a fact. If you kill me, the old ancestor will definitely know immediately, which will surely be detrimental to you, Mr. Ye," Mo Chenliang hurriedly said.

"So, you’re looking out for my interest?" Ye Xuan scoffed, finding Mo Chenliang quite amusing.

"Of course, of course," Mo Chenliang said with a pale face, whispering.

In order to survive, this top talent of the Mo family’s generation had humbled himself to the dust.

"Mr. Ye, what he said is true," Mo Yunchui whispered. "This Mo Chenliang is our Mo family’s top talent of this generation, deeply favored by the old ancestor, who has set a restriction on him; if anything happens to him, the old ancestor will definitely know immediately."

"By then, our situation in the Mo family will truly be precarious,"

Mo Yunchui said.

"Mr. Ye, don’t kill me, I promise I won’t make trouble again," Mo Chenliang also pleaded for mercy.
