She grew up on Mount Futu. Although she was a medicine slave, she was absolutely loyal to Mount Futu. In her eyes, Mount Futu was sacred and inviolable. If Ye Xingchen dared to do anything that would affect the interests of Mount Futu, she would fight him to the death.
"No, no, you've got it wrong. I just wanted to give Futu Mountain a warning." Ye Xingchen shook his head: "If the warning is too light, Futu Mountain might not take it seriously. So, let's send Bai Wei a dead body. Only in this way will she take it seriously."
"You dare..." Ake quickly retreated, trying to distance herself from Ye Xingchen, but no matter how fast she was, she couldn't outrun Ye Xingchen. In the instant she retreated, Ye Xingchen's two right fingers were already together.
With a whoosh, white true energy emanated from Ye Xingchen's fingertips, gathering into a condensed white mist in mid-air, piercing through Ake's chest.
Akko froze, staggered backward, her clothes ripped open with a large hole in the back, and then she collapsed to the ground with a thud, lifeless.
"You, you dare to kill people from Futu Mountain?" Cheng Qiang's mouth was agape, so much so that he almost forgot the pain in his body.
In his view, Mount Futu is one of the three most extraordinary places in the world, a transcendent existence.
Moreover, the three saints of Futu Mountain are all experts at the saint level. Even if Ye Xingchen is furious, he cannot directly break off relations and kill the medicine man of Futu Mountain.
However, reality disappointed him; when Ye Xingchen unleashed his power, no one could stop him.
"Chengqiang, get ready. Your time to settle down is running out." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly. "I don't think there's any need to discuss this further today. You'd better take care of yourself."
After Ye Xingchen finished speaking, he left with Gu Manyun. The hundreds of thugs that Cheng Qiang brought made way for him, and not one of them dared to step forward to stop them.
"This time, things have completely fallen out with the Cheng family," Gu Manyun sighed.
"It was expected. Cheng Qiang is incredibly greedy. He definitely couldn't resist the temptation to let you take over the Shengshi Club's territory." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly and said, "It's already quite remarkable that he's been able to hold back until now."
"Bai Wei is his strategist, and she must have advised this guy not to make any moves against you. Unfortunately, he didn't listen. If he had listened to even a single word, this wouldn't have happened."
“Now that things have come to this point, let’s be prepared,” Gu Manyun said. “But the Cheng family is different from the Shengshi Chamber of Commerce. This is a family business, and three generations of the Cheng family have been running it in Jinling.”
"There will always be a solution," Ye Xingchen said. "When necessary, I will seek help from outside forces. You don't need to worry about that. As long as the Cheng family father and son lose their heads, everything else is no problem."
"I love your confident look." Gu Manyun chuckled. With Ye Xingchen's promise, she wasn't worried at all.
Even if Chengjia is an old and deeply rooted family in Jinling, Ye Xingchen will definitely be able to uproot them completely.
At the dogfighting arena where Chengjia lived, a corpse lay before Bai Wei.
The corpse was indeed that of the medicine man, Ake, and Bai Wei was examining her injuries.
The pure true energy pierced through his chest. Although there were no fatal wounds, the power left by that finger strike was still terrifying.
After silently watching for a long time, Bai Wei slowly stood up, her expression tense and without saying a word.
Cheng Qiang felt a little guilty; he didn't even dare to look up at Bai Wei.
Because Bai Wei had repeatedly instructed him not to clash with Ye Xingchen and to develop and grow stronger slowly, Cheng Qiang was still itching to get his hands on the Phoenix Terrace area controlled by Gu Manyun.
This time, they messed up and went too far.
"Young Master Cheng, it seems you haven't listened to a word I said," Bai Wei said coldly.
"I...I originally thought..." Cheng Qiang stammered, unable to speak.
"What did you originally think? That you, Young Master Cheng, were a master strategist who could win battles from afar? Or that you were confident of victory when facing Ye Xingchen?" Bai Wei sneered, "With the support of Futu Mountain, as long as we avoid Ye Xingchen's sharp edge, the Cheng family will inevitably become a top star within the next three years."
"Yet you coveted this petty gain and disrupted all of our plans for Mount Futu. Heh, you're still just a hoodlum after all. People like that will never amount to anything," Bai Wei said coldly.
Cheng Qiang hung his head and didn't say a word. Bai Wei was right. His family had been in Jinling for three generations, and they all came from humble backgrounds.
From his grandfather's generation to his current family, it's all the same.
Some things are ingrained in their bones. Even though they have built a large and powerful family now, their inherent greed for small gains and lack of vision remain unchanged.
"Enough. Perhaps we chose the wrong target from the start. I will return to Mount Futu tomorrow to apologize to my master. You and your family should take care of yourselves." Bai Wei flicked her sleeve and threw out a sentence that terrified Cheng Qiang.
"Miss Bai, you can't leave, Miss Bai! Our Cheng family and your Futu Mountain have a contract, and now we've reached the most critical moment. What will we do if you leave?" Cheng Qiang was terrified; he was truly afraid.
The Cheng family has been developing rapidly recently. They have seized a lot of territory and many venues in the surrounding provinces and cities. Their goal is to become the underground emperor of the three regions in Jiangnan.
Because of this, they have offended many people. The reason they are so confident is entirely due to Mount Futu.
If they lose the support of Mount Futu now, they will inevitably face a backlash from forces in various regions, which would be a catastrophic disaster for their Cheng family.
"Heh, so you're scared now?" Bai Wei made no attempt to hide her anger: "Your actions will harm you and the Cheng family. Don't you care about the consequences at all?"
"Miss Bai, it's all my fault, I beg you." Cheng Qiang, dragging his severed arm, knelt down on the ground with a thud: "Give me another chance, give the Cheng family another chance."
Bai Wei stared at Cheng Qiang for a long time before letting out a heavy sigh.
"It was my fault back then. I shouldn't have told Master that I would support you getting married." Bai Wei said coldly, "You're more trouble than you're worth."
"Miss Bai, I am somewhat unwilling, but I beg you to give me another chance. I promise I will seize this opportunity." Cheng Qiang's attitude was very sincere.
"This is your last chance. Make the most of it." Bai Wei said coldly, "Master has summoned me back to the mountain. If he summons me back at this time, it must be because something very important has happened in the sect. I will return to the mountain now and come back in a week."
"All the medicine practitioners I left in Jinling are now under your command. You better remember this: if you dare to provoke Ye Xingchen again, I will personally wipe out your Cheng family."
