Jiang Chen smiled and nodded. "It seems there's nothing more to say."

Li Yunfeng still sneered viciously, "I can give you a choice. Will you do it yourself, or shall I cripple you? If you do it yourself, you can suffer less. If I have to do it, I will crush your limbs bone by bone."

Jiang Chen no longer responded, offering only an icy smile as he twisted his wrist.

Clang!

The Blood Saber instantly unsheathed, its blood-red aura slowly brightening.

"Wait a minute!"

Qiu Liang's face changed abruptly as he shouted out anxiously, "President Li, my uncle is on his way. Can't we sit down and resolve this matter slowly? Must it really be solved through violence?"

"Qiu Liang, you still have the nerve to speak? In your Dingjing, my son was seriously injured, my people were killed, yet you remained unscathed. After I deal with this brat, I'll make sure to settle this account with you properly!" Li Yunfeng turned and glared fiercely at Qiu Liang.

Qiu Liang's complexion shifted slightly, and with gritted teeth and a solemn expression, he insisted, "Our Dingjing branch will take responsibility for this. President Li, please wait a moment, my uncle is almost here!"

"You'll take responsibility? What gives you the right to represent the Dingjing branch? Can you even bear such responsibility?" Li Yunfeng scoffed contemptuously.

"President Li, I wonder if I have the qualifications to take on this responsibility on behalf of the Dingjing branch!" A deep voice rang out as Qiu Boyuan, accompanied by Qiu Lingyu, stepped into the private room.

Li Yunfeng's expression changed, turning utterly grim. "President Qiu, what do you mean by this? Are you going to protect this kid?"

"President Li, Mr. Jiang cured my hidden ailment and saved my life. Such a favor is as heavy as the sky; I cannot fail to protect Mr. Jiang!" Qiu Boyuan spoke earnestly.

Li Yunfeng was taken aback for a moment, then snorted coldly as he looked at Jiang Chen. "No wonder you're so fearless! So you have Qiu Boyuan's protection! But do you think that his protection means you're safe? I am one of the six directors of the Martial Alliance. And he? He's just a branch president. Who do you think has more influence in the Martial Alliance? Kid, get down on your knees and apologize now, and I might spare your life."

After weighing the situation, Li Yunfeng realized he probably couldn't take Jiang Chen's life today. Although both Qiu Boyuan and he were Semi Innate Grand Masters, Qiu Boyuan was slightly stronger. If it hadn't been for a chronic illness that had weakened Qiu Boyuan and put his life at risk, the position among the six directors would have been his.

Now that Qiu Boyuan claimed Jiang Chen had cured his illness, Li Yunfeng's first thought was how to secure his director's position. It wasn't the time to turn against Qiu Boyuan, so he could only grudgingly let Jiang Chen off the hook for the moment.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Boyuan's eyebrows furrowed.

He knew very well that Jiang Chen would never apologize to Li Yunfeng, much less kneel and kowtow. Although the message from Qiu Liang only mentioned that Jiang Chen had confronted Li Yunfeng without detailing specifics, Qiu Boyuan got a clear picture upon entering. He recognized Yè Yùwǎn and understood Li Lei's true nature, thus things became clear to him.

"Me, apologize? Hah! Who do you think you are? Out of respect for President Qiu, if you and your worthless son kneel and apologize to Yu Wan, I might just spare your lives."

Jiang Chen glared at Li Yunfeng with a frosty gaze, Blood Saber in hand, ready to strike at any moment.

Qiu Boyuan's expression changed, and he felt a heavy sinking feeling in his heart, realizing that today's incident wouldn't end well.

"Hahaha... What an arrogant youngster. It's been a long time since someone has spoken to me like that, Li Yunfeng! You do have guts! You really think I'd be scared of Qiu Boyuan?" Li Yunfeng burst out laughing, his voice filled with anger.

Zhang Feng's expression lit up with excitement, shouting arrogantly, "Jiang Chen, get down and apologize to President Li and Young Master Lei immediately or not only will you die, but Yi Chen will also have to close down!"

And Wang Lili was even more thrilled, "Jiang Chen, do you think this is a battle in the business world? This is a confrontation between Martial Artists. Do you really think you have the ability to defeat President Li? Kneel down quickly! Otherwise, not just you, but Yè Yùwǎn and your wife Gong Lin will all become Young Master Lei's playthings!"

Why? Why can Yè Yùwǎn be pure and untouched, while she has to use her body to climb up? Why does she, the boss, value Yè Yùwǎn but not her? Why does everyone think Yè Yùwǎn is better than her?

Originally, Wang Lili was just jealous of Yè Yùwǎn, but when she saw Jiang Chen willing to face off against Li Yunfeng for Yè Yùwǎn, it touched a nerve, and her mentality became completely distorted, obsessed with utterly destroying both Yè Yùwǎn and Jiang Chen!

"You're seeking death!"

Jiang Chen roared coldly, his eyes bursting with killing intent.

"Hahahahaha—"

Wang Lili and Zhang Feng laughed haughtily, pointing at Jiang Chen with fearless mockery, "Come on, if you dare, kill us. With President Li here, do you have the nerve to do it?"

Their brazen laughter was met with nothing but a cold chuckle from Jiang Chen.

Subsequently, Jiang Chen swung his saber, unleashing a void strike at Wang Lili and Zhang Feng.

Whoosh!

A blood-colored blade light swiftly cleaved forth from the Blood Saber.

Swish! Splat!

After a terrifying sound, Wang Lili, along with Zhang Feng by her side, both had their smiles frozen as they were cut in half at the waist, their upper bodies toppling to the ground, revealing a smooth cross-section!

"Ah! An Innate Grandmaster?!"

Li Yunfeng's face drastically changed, looking at Jiang Chen with horror, his body beginning to tremble.

He had never imagined that Jiang Chen would be an Innate Grandmaster!

How, how could they fight this?

"Hmph, hmph."

Jiang Chen didn't reply, only letting out two sneers, his foot stomping forward fiercely.

These two sneers were like two heavy hammers striking Li Yunfeng's heart, scaring his soul out of his body.

Jiang Chen was an Innate Grandmaster, so killing him, a mere Semi Innate, was like slaughtering a chicken.

At this moment, in his eyes, Jiang Chen was no longer an ant, but a mountain, one he could only look up to.

And now, this mountain was pressing down on him, making him feel his spirit trembling, his breathing rapid, and his heartbeat nearly stopping.

The fear in his heart had reached its limit.

"Tap!"

Jiang Chen took another step, lightly swinging the Blood Saber in his hand.

The killing intent was awe-inspiring!

This step, this swing, had completely shattered Li Yunfeng's last line of defense in his heart.

"Thump!"

Suddenly, Li Yunfeng's knees went weak, and he fell to his knees.

"Spare, spare my life..."

At this moment, he no longer possessed the imposing aura he once had, only fear and abjectness.

Silence!

Deathly stillness!

Everyone was stunned!

Watching Li Yunfeng kneel before Jiang Chen begging for mercy, they were all dumbfounded!

Li Yunfeng, the branch leader of the Martial Alliance, a council member of the headquarters, was actually so terrified by Jiang Chen's single slash that he kneeled!

It was too inconceivable!

And yet, it made sense.

How could you not kneel before an Innate Grandmaster?
