Inside the main hall, cups and glasses clinked in celebration.

More than half of the upper class from Qiyun Road had assembled here.

The arrival of Ye Chao and Gao Fan immediately created a stir. Everyone raised their glasses to toast the two of them.

"Young Masters, your imposing presence and spirited demeanor are unlike anything we have ever seen before!"

"My name is Wang Zhenhua. It is an honor to meet you, Young Masters."

Every person present was a top figure on Qiyun Road. Some were even influential enough that the Qin Clan's Royal Family would treat them with courtesy. Yet at this moment, they all adopted postures of extreme humility, like fawning pugs wagging their tails for a scrap.

Ye Chao and Gao Fan were the center of attention, like the moon surrounded by stars. The more everyone fawned over them, however, the more Ye Chao and Gao Fan looked down on them, their expressions insufferably arrogant, as if they were looking at a pack of dogs. Despite this, they reveled in the feeling.

"Young Masters, we heard you brought two female companions, each as beautiful as a celestial fairy. Might we have the honor of meeting them?" a portly, middle-aged man asked reverently and cautiously.

Ye Chao waved his hand dismissively. "Mere playthings," he said with contempt. "If you wish to see them, don't be anxious. They'll be out soon, once they're done with their makeup."

Playthings? Many who had caught a fleeting glimpse of Qin Qiu and Qin Mo were baffled. Such stunning women… and they're just playthings? No wonder they say these influential scions are on another level. TSK, TSK… Truly a cut above the rest, with their noses in the air.

CREAK.

The main doors to the hall were pushed open.

Chen Yang lit a cigarette and instructed Yang Hu, "Close the door."

Yang Hu dutifully shut the large doors and stood by, waiting. His men had already found Qin Qiu and Qin Mo backstage, both safe and sound. Now, he could unleash the fury in his heart without restraint.

At the sudden appearance of the newcomer, everyone in the venue turned their heads.

"Who is this guy? He's not even wearing formal attire."

"Is he here to freeload?"

Many frowned, their expressions filled with suspicion.

"Kid, which family are you from?" Ye Chao swirled his wine glass and asked nonchalantly.

Chen Yang flicked the ash from his cigarette, one hand in his pocket, and got straight to the point. "Which of you is Ye Chao, and which is Gao Fan?"

Hmph. What audacity, to call the two young masters by their full names. And that tone…

Then, everyone's gaze shifted in unison to Ye Chao and Gao Fan.

Leaning against a table, Ye Chao took a casual sip of wine and glanced indifferently at Chen Yang. "Where did this scoundrel crawl from? What do you want with me?"

Gao Fan's lips curled into a smirk as he stared coldly at Chen Yang, saying nothing.

"Was it you who kidnapped Qin Qiu and Qin Mo?"

"HA! HA!" Ye Chao burst out laughing and shook his head. "So you're here for those two playthings?"

"Playthings?" Chen Yang's eyes narrowed as he took a step forward.

BOOM!

A potent killing intent erupted like a shockwave. The wine glasses and porcelain plates on the tables shattered, and even the tables and chairs themselves began to tremble violently. The curtains billowed and the chandeliers swayed.

This stunning scene made the expressions of Ye Chao, Gao Fan, and everyone present shift dramatically, their pupils constricting. It felt as though a bone-deep chill had pierced their very marrow, a frigid aura instantly spreading to every corner of their bodies.

Such palpable killing intent!

THUMP, THUMP, THUMP.

Three elders rose from three different directions, their gazes sinister as they strode forward.

Ye Chao set down his wine glass, put a toothpick between his teeth, and chuckled nonchalantly. "No wonder you've got the guts to question me. So you have some skill. Your power doesn't seem half-bad, either."

Before his words had even faded, Chen Yang's figure blurred, and in an instant, he was less than half a meter from Ye Chao.

BOOM!

He threw a punch. As quick as a flash of lightning, the fist shattered Ye Chao's right arm.

Ye Chao: "..."

Gao Fan: "..."

Everyone: "..."

"AHHH!" Ye Chao howled in pain. He instinctively looked down, and upon seeing his arm, his face twisted into a grotesque mask.

He was an eleventh-tier prodigy, yet he couldn't even see how his opponent attacked?

BANG!

Chen Yang's hand shot out, palm open, and slammed down on Ye Chao's head. Still in a daze, Ye Chao's knees buckled, and he crashed to the floor.

This… this…

The great young master of the Ye Family, a brilliant eleventh-tier youth, was utterly powerless to resist? Like a fish on the chopping block, completely at his mercy? What kind of godlike figure is that guy? And most importantly, those three obviously stronger elders didn't even have a chance to intervene!

"Did you even know whose woman you were taking when you so casually abducted her?" Chen Yang said, lowering his gaze to stare indifferently at the man at his feet.

"*Cough, cough!*" Ye Chao spat out mouthfuls of blood, struggling to lift his head. His face was a mask of savagery. "You damn mutt, do you have any idea who I am?"

"Elder Hong, go, kill him."

To the side, Gao Fan had recovered from his initial shock. His indifferent expression returned as he waved a hand casually and gave the order.

WHOOSH!

The elder sprang forward, unleashing the full might of a peak thirteenth-tier expert. He moved like a tiger bursting from its cage, and the air shrieked from the force of his attack.

Chen Yang took the cigarette butt from his lips and flicked it with his finger.

BOOM!

The elder was sent flying backward even faster than he had charged forward. He crashed heavily to the ground seven or eight meters away.

Gao Fan: "..."

Everyone: "..."

All at once, everyone's eyes widened as if they had seen a ghost, the hair on their bodies standing on end.

That elder… a peak thirteenth-tier expert… was killed by a flicked cigarette butt? Just like that? He's really dead. Lying there, completely motionless… there's no way he's alive.

This…

"You, you're at the fourteenth tier, Ten Thousand Phenomena Senluo?!"

Who else could kill a peak thirteenth-tier expert so easily, if not someone at the level of Ten Thousand Phenomena Senluo?

Having said this, Ye Chao felt his very soul scatter in terror.

Gao Fan, the two remaining elders, and everyone else in the crowd retreated several steps, their hands and bodies trembling uncontrollably.

Where did this monster come from?! He can't be more than thirty, yet he's already a fourteenth-tier Ten Thousand Phenomena Senluo?

CLATTER.

Chen Yang kicked a phone on the floor, sending it skidding in front of Ye Chao. "Call your patriarch. Ask him if he has the guts to have me killed."

The Ye Family would not fear a mere thirteenth-tier expert. But… a fourteenth-tier powerhouse this young, one who could slaughter a peak thirteenth-tier expert with ease? Even the great Ye Family would have to think twice before provoking such an individual.

"I… I…" Ye Chao was petrified with fear. How could he possibly dare to make that call?

"Just now, did you say Qin Qiu and Qin Mo were merely playthings?"

Ye Chao: "..."

Then, Chen Yang turned his gaze towards Gao Fan.

His gaze seemed to say, *None of you are getting out of here.*
