Chapter 771: You Mengmeng’s Protest

Chen Ye said he would make You Hu cry with one move, and he really did win with a single strike.

Under everyone’s gaze, You Hu’s tears glinted in the bloody moonlight, a sight that stunned them all.

Hou Junji remained silent. No one knew what was going through the old schemer’s mind.

Wei Butong was trembling with excitement, muttering to himself, “That’s the kind of dominance a real man should have! Now that’s a real man!”

“Damn it, I should be the one standing there!”

“It should’ve been me!”

Xiong Baochun gave a cold snort through his nose and silently scoffed, “What do you people know? You haven’t even seen the monster’s true strength yet.”

He felt both resentful and helpless toward Chen Ye, but he could only put up with it.

What else could he do? Chen Ye’s strength haunted Xiong Baochun like a nightmare.

The corners of Sun Xixi’s lips lifted into a bright smile, and then she turned and walked into the crowd.

She’d already seen the outcome. There was no need to stick around.

She still had to go practice her swordsmanship.

Ever since Chen Ye advanced to Sequence 4, he had put a great deal of pressure on her.

Dantai Bie went around telling everyone, “This is my buddy! This is my buddy!~~~”

Chen Ye simply smiled, wearing an inscrutable expression.

Xu Lina remained hidden in the shadows, and no one could see what expression she wore.

At the same time, someone else was concealed in another patch of darkness, a thin, gaunt figure with their entire body shrouded in a black robe.

The person was strange, as if they were afraid of being seen by anyone else.

Several wary-looking men stood indistinctly around them.

Although they were all ordinary people, they clearly had a different kind of aura from those around them.

When some ordinary people nearby noticed the person’s arrival, they all bowed their heads in greeting.

The person gave a slight nod in return.

“Big Sister, is he... really that strong?”

The voice came from another person in a cloak.

The speaker was the Insect Breeder from the Happy Family Convoy.

The last time they fought Number Two, the Insect Breeder hadn’t joined the battle.

After Crow’s death, the Happy Family Convoy clearly didn’t have enough Superhumans.

In that situation, the convoy had to keep one Superhuman behind, just in case.

Auntie Zhao had already been very supportive by letting Lin Qingge go into battle.

Lin Qingge looked at Chen Ye standing motionless in the arena and nodded slightly. “He’s even stronger than you saw, stronger even than you can imagine!”

“Though You Hu is strong, he probably didn’t even force Chen Ye to use half his strength!”

The Insect Breeder was taken aback. “He’s that strong? That’s ridiculous!”

Though Lin Qingge spoke with conviction, the Insect Breeder didn’t believe her at all.

Lin Qingge nodded slightly and said earnestly, “He’s strong! Really strong!!!”

In the arena...

The Wolf Pack Convoy’s people hurried over, hoisted You Hu up, and carried him away.

A wave of laughter rang out around them.

Lying on the stretcher, You Hu’s eyes were bloodshot. His hands were clenched into fists, and the veins all over his body bulged.

Half of what he felt now was pain; the other half was unwillingness and humiliation.

“Hahaha... I thought that guy was tough, but I didn’t expect him to be such a wimp!”

“A Superhuman got beaten until he cried! Hahaha... I’m dying!”

“I thought he was so strong. Turns out he’s a coward too!”

“Hahaha...”

The jeers sounded especially grating in You Hu’s ears.

The Wolf Pack Convoy’s Superhumans glared angrily at those who mocked him.

At first, You Mengmeng had been very worried. But after the convoy doctor examined her brother and confirmed that he wasn’t seriously hurt, she felt a little relieved.

The little girl lowered her head, her cheeks flushed bright red.

Seeing Chen Ye still standing there, You Mengmeng felt a little angry.

He’d promised her earlier that he would forgive her brother.

How could he do something like this?

You Mengmeng gathered her courage, then gathered it again.

Only then did she walk up to Chen Ye amid the laughter around her, intending to make a small protest.

Chen Ye was still standing in place, and the Fair Convoy’s people had gathered around him.

Xu Lina had silently taken hold of Chen Ye’s arm, acting just like his girlfriend and looking very affectionate.

When the little girl, You Mengmeng, came over, Chen Ye paused.

You Mengmeng puffed out her cheeks and stared at Chen Ye, putting on an angry expression.

In truth, the angry look only made her seem even cuter. Compared to Little Fish’s anger, it was far less intimidating.

Little Fish suddenly appeared from who knew where and spread her arms to shield You Mengmeng.

She looked like a mother hen protecting her chick, glaring at You Mengmeng as if Chen Ye were her little brother.

Seeing Little Fish’s expression, You Mengmeng quickly took a step back, looking a little scared.

When Little Fish saw how she was acting, she let some of her hostility fade.

“I... I have something... to... to say to the Chief Seat!”

Little Fish turned to look at Chen Ye.

Chen Ye nodded.

Little Fish raised her chin with a cocky air. “Go on, say it!”

You Mengmeng gathered her courage again and took a deep breath. “Chief Seat... you... didn’t you promise me? You promised you’d forgive my brother?”

So that was what she wanted to ask!

He’d said he would forgive her brother, then turned around and beat him until he cried right in front of her.

That... wasn’t very decent of him.

Chen Ye smiled slightly, his manner languid. “I did forgive your brother!”

You Mengmeng froze, then grew a little angry. “But... but... you beat him until he cried!”

The corners of Chen Ye’s lips remained curled up. “I forgave him, but that doesn’t mean I can’t beat him up!”

You Mengmeng was stunned...

Wait, he could put it that way?

Were those two things really unrelated?

Little Fish rolled her eyes and scoffed inwardly: Chen Ye’s a big villain, and even I can’t handle him. How could a little girl like you possibly manage it?

Little Fish had forgotten that this “little girl” was actually around the same age as her.

You Mengmeng stood there thinking for more than ten seconds, then nodded slightly, looking as if she found Chen Ye’s reasoning convincing.

“So that’s how it is!”

“Then... Chief Seat, you’ve completely forgiven my brother now?”

Chen Ye nodded without saying a word.

You Mengmeng asked again, just to be sure, “You won’t beat him up anymore?”

Chen Ye smiled and nodded again, looking quite certain.

As soon as You Mengmeng heard that, the anger on her face instantly turned into a smile. Then she turned and skipped away.

Little Fish watched her, utterly baffled.

Wait, was this girl even easier to fool than me?

Xu Lina leaned against Chen Ye without changing her expression as they walked toward Sun Xixi’s car.

Quite a few people nearby looked on enviously, though most only stole glances.

Chen Ye had not only beaten the seemingly powerful You Hu until he cried, but he could also have such a stunning beauty at his beck and call.

How could anyone not envy him, with such a stunning beauty at his beck and call?

Chen Ye got back into the car and sat in the back this time.

Little Fish glanced around, noticed someone watching them, and made a fierce face at that person.

There was no helping it. Chen Ye was simply too dazzling now.

That was true for both the people from Happy Garden and the newly arrived convoys.

By then, Hou Junji had already made contact with the other side, bringing Chu Che and the others along.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries.

Little Fish slammed down on the gas pedal, and the car drove toward Happy Garden under everyone’s watchful eyes.

The road by the entrance was damaged by now, so Little Fish had to drive along the edge of the deep crater left by the battle.

When the car finally returned to Happy Garden, everyone inside felt the pressure on them ease slightly.

“Ptooey~~~~”

Just then, Chen Ye, sitting in the back seat, opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood!

Xu Lina beside him was horrified. “Mr. Chen!”

Little Fish panicked too, nearly hitting a passerby beside them.

Chen Ye raised a hand, his voice weak. “Don’t panic. Don’t worry, I’m fine. Keep driving!”
