At this moment, one of them stepped forward with an angry expression.
"You... let me handle it." Belittling Ye Xiao, one of them volunteered and stepped forward to confront him.
"Haha, let's go, I can't wait to receive my reward!" The remaining few behind laughed, believing they would surely teach Ye Xiao a lesson and then leave the village in a tragic state.
But the next scene made their eyes widen in shock.
Slap...
Just as one of them was about to attack Ye Xiao, a slap rang out, and the incoming figure was sent flying, lying unconscious on the ground.
What???
How could this happen?
The few people blocking Ye Xiao were completely shocked. Ye Xiao simply slapped the young man, knocking him back into unconsciousness.
They couldn't even clearly see Ye Xiao's movements when he delivered the slap.
Even the surrounding crowd was instantly astonished by Ye Xiao's strength. Many of those with higher levels could clearly see Ye Xiao's level as he launched his attack on the approaching youths, making the spectacle even more captivating.
Those who couldn't even sense Ye Xiao's level were also deeply shocked by Ye Xiao's strength, and they found the spectacle even more captivating.
"You... what level are you at?" One of the youths immediately asked Ye Xiao, a look of shock clearly visible on his face.
"My level? You can't see it? That means you're too weak," Ye Xiao said casually. He was increasingly aware of the gap in strength between these youths. Although his strength was only one level above his, these youths couldn't see anything about him. This proved that his talent and strength far surpassed theirs.
How could this be?...
Hearing Ye Xiao's sneer, the youths couldn't understand how this could be. It wasn't just a few months ago that they had witnessed Ye Xiao being tragically tortured in the village center? Now, they couldn't sense Ye Xiao's level at all, meaning their own were far inferior to his. This was simply unbelievable.
And at this moment, the youths felt terrified. If they persisted in confronting Ye Xiao, wouldn't they be the ones to suffer? Especially since the young man who had just stepped forward was the strongest among them. Yet, he had been knocked unconscious by just one slap from Ye Xiao. What would happen to them?
Thinking like this, the youths felt fear and looked at each other, ready to flee.
But before they could act, Ye Xiao's next words silenced them.
"Hehe, you guys want to leave? Did I give you permission to leave?" Ye Xiao sneered, as he spoke, a murderous aura radiating from his body.
Feeling the murderous aura, the young men shuddered in horror, their legs trembling with fear.
"You... don't mess around! If you dare, I'll call someone!" One of the young men said, trying to threaten Ye Xiao so he wouldn't continue his murderous intentions. But Ye Xiao's next words left him speechless.
"Hehe, I want to see, after you're crippled, will the people you call care about you anymore?" Ye Xiao responded casually to the young man's threat. This had been Ye Xiao's goal from the start. Because of the young men's insults and insults, Ye Xiao intended to confront them and destroy their golden cores, making them feel what he had felt before.
"You..." Hearing Ye Xiao's words, the young men subconsciously took a few steps back in fear. They were about to flee, but as if not wanting to give them any time, Ye Xiao lunged at them.
At this point, the young men were forced to face Ye Xiao.
But facing Ye Xiao, what could they do? Even in terms of speed, they were vastly outmatched.
Bang...
Ahhhh...
Ye Xiao's punch immediately struck one of the young men in the stomach, sending him flying back several meters. The pain was excruciating, and the young man's consciousness slowly faded and disappeared.
Not stopping there, Ye Xiao immediately darted to several other young men and launched the same attack at their stomachs.
Ye Xiao's movements were so fast that the young men were unable to do anything, only to receive the blows to their stomachs.
Bang...
Bang...
Ahhh...
Pfffttt...
There were five young men, and it didn't take long for Ye Xiao to easily incapacitate them all without much effort, even consuming less than twenty percent of his spiritual energy.
At this moment, in front of the five collapsed youths, Ye Xiao walked past them with a sense of relief. Meanwhile, the bustling village street seemed silent. It had been a bustling place, but now it was so quiet. The reason was that everyone was so shocked by what had happened that they were speechless.
And the next moment...
"So strong, how is he so strong?"
After a while, everyone began to comment in surprise. They hadn't expected someone who had only reached the fifth stage of Qi Refining to be so powerful. Furthermore, hadn't he just awakened his golden core? They found Ye Xiao simply too shocking.
Among those older people, many had reached the seventh or eighth stage of Qi Refining. However, given their age, it was inappropriate for them to interfere in the affairs of the younger generation. Furthermore, they had no connection to the youths who had interrupted Ye Xiao, so they had no intention of interfering or interfering in their affairs.
And throughout this journey, no one bothered Ye Xiao again.
The distance between Ye Xiao's current location and the Ye family residence was only a few kilometers, but Ye Xiao was in no hurry and wanted to see how everyone would express themselves when he was able to emit an aura from his body.
