Chapter 675: Let them go
Xiao Ming’s hand stopped moving towards Chen Jing Yun’s hand, but the look on her face made it clear that she wouldn’t hesitate to keep going if he didn’t talk.
Chen Jing Yun had a very conflicted look on his face as he looked at Xiao Ming over him.
Seeing that he wasn’t planning on talking, Xiao Ming started moving her hand again without a word.
Chen Jing Yun was shocked to see this, so he said with a bitter look on his face, “Alright, alright, you were right. There was someone that told us to come and look for trouble with you. However, we weren’t planning on seriously injuring you, we were just planning on teaching you a lesson.”
The way that he said this, it was almost as if he believed that what he was doing wasn’t that bad.
It was as if teaching someone a lesson wasn’t hurting them and was just a normal thing to do.
But Xiao Ming didn’t care at all as she started moving her hand again.
Chen Jing Yun panicked at this as he said, “Wait, wait, just let us go or else this will really get much worse for you.”
Xiao Ming’s hand didn’t stop.
But before she could make the first cut, there was a voice that rang out, “Stop, let them go.”
Everyone that had been watching immediately turned in the direction of this voice.
Xiao Ming had felt that this voice was familiar and as expected, it was Senior Brother Tang.
Though she already had her guesses in her heart, they were confirmed the moment that he appeared.
Xiao Ming didn’t keep moving the dagger, but that didn’t mean that she let Chen Jing Yun go. She just calmly held him in her hands with the dagger still over his hand as she looked up at Senior Brother Tang.
With how relaxed she was, it was almost as if she wasn’t holding someone hostage and was just playing around.
Senior Brother Tang couldn’t help revealing a strange look when he saw her looking at him like this. He didn’t know why he felt this way, but there was a strange feeling of threat that came from her.
It was almost as if he recognized her as a threat to himself.
But that had never happened to him before.
After a long silence, Xiao Ming casually said, “Why should I?”
Senior Brother Tang deeply knitted his brows when he heard this, but he didn’t back down as he said in a calm voice, “Junior Sister Xiao, I’m sure that there must be some kind of misunderstanding here. How about we all calm down first and talk this out instead of acting rashly?”
The way that he said it made him seem like the one that was being calm and collected, but in truth, Senior Brother Tang was quite anxious at this moment.
After all, it was a fact that he had sent these three groups after the Love Sect group.
These three were loyal followers of him from other sects that he had been using for years to do many things for him. It could even be said that it was because of them that he had the identity that he currently had.
If he were to lose them, then there was no doubt that he would suffer in the future.
So he wanted to save these three groups from Xiao Ming’s grasp as soon as possible.
It was just too bad for him that he had completely overestimated himself.
Even after everything that Xiao Ming had done, he still didn’t understand that she didn’t care about him at all. In fact, she even looked down on him because of everything that he had done.
Unfortunately, he was someone with an inflated ego.
For someone like him who had an inflated ego from everyone flattering him, he couldn’t even imagine that someone wouldn’t be interested in him.
For him, the entire world was there to be at his service and nothing else.
Xiao Ming just gave a cold snort and said, “I’m supposed to let them go just because you said so? I guess that I’m supposed to jump when you tell me to?”
Senior Brother Tang’s expression turned ugly when he heard this.
Once Xiao Ming lost all semblance of courtesy, it was impossible for him to keep mistaking that he had any power here. Once she spoke to him in this manner, he knew that he wouldn’t be able to end this with just words.
So instead, he calmly said, “Junior Sister Xiao, regardless of what happened, this is the Martial Might Sect’s territory. I have to advise you to stop causing trouble here or else who knows what might happen. I’m sure that the elders of your Love Sect wouldn’t want to see that happen.”
Right, he was using the sect behind him.
Since he couldn’t suppress her with his prestige alone, he would use the prestige of his entire sect to suppress her.
In the end, there was nothing that could compare to the prestige of the entire Martial Might Sect.
But to his surprise…
“What does that matter to me? The people that offend me, I will take care of them. That is all I care about.” Xiao Ming said in a very casual voice before suddenly bringing her hand down.
When she did, there was a spurt of blood before a finger fell to the ground.
“AH!” Chen Jing Yun had a look of absolute disbelief on his face.
He never thought that even after the arrival of Senior Brother Tang, she would do something like this. After all, Senior Brother Tang had even involved the Martial Might Sect in this matter.
By cutting his finger off like this and ignoring Senior Brother Tang, it was like she was offending the Martial Might Sect as well.
Senior Brother Tang’s face looked very ugly as his chin dropped down.
Never in his wildest imagination would he have thought that Xiao Ming would do something like this.
But even if he was in a daze, that didn’t mean that others would remain still.
Seeing that Xiao Ming had made her move, the other members of the Love Sect also brought down the daggers that they were holding.
Senior Brother Tang saw that something was off and shouted, “Stop, don’t…”
He didn’t get a chance to finish as there were more fingers that suddenly dropped to the ground along with screams of pain and spurts of blood.
After all of their fingers were cut off, Xiao Ming just said to Chen Jing Yun with a smile on her face, “You still have one minute before the next one comes off. I’d think about this very carefully if I was you.”
Chen Jing Yun had a look of absolute fear on his face when he heard this.
At this point, Xiao Ming’s voice had turned into the voice of the devil and it was guiding him onto the path of hell. But if he were to go against her, then there was nothing that he could do but suffer…
So in the end, his mentality started to crack.
“The one that sent us is…”
“Enough! Let them go this instant!”
Before Chen Jing Yun could say anything, Senior Brother Tang was already charging forward.
Since things had developed to this point, he recognized that Xiao Ming and the people from the Love Sect were completely crazy. If they were crazy, then there was no way that they would listen to reason.
Since they were crazy, the only thing that he could do was use force.
As such, he raised his fist as if he was about to punch Xiao Ming.
Xiao Ming just had a relaxed look on her face seeing Senior Brother Tang charging at her.
When Senior Brother Tang realized what happened, he saw that he was looking at the sky above him.
One moment, he had been charging at Xiao Ming and the next, he was looking up at the sky above him.
Senior Brother Tang wanted to get up, but he found that he couldn’t.
When he looked down, he saw that there was a foot that was on his chest. Then when he followed that foot up, he saw that it was Xiao Ming who was stepping on him.
His face filled with disbelief when he saw this, but he still roared, “Let me go this instant! Are you trying to start a war between the Love Sect and the Martial Might…oof…”
He didn’t get a chance to finish what he was saying as he had the wind knocked out of him.
Before he could finish his words, Xiao Ming had stomped down on his chest and knocked the breath out of him.
After stepping on him, Xiao Ming looked down and said, “What you say doesn’t count here. You don’t have a voice, you weakling.”
Senior Brother Tang’s face twisted the moment he heard this and it looked like he wanted to rip Xiao Ming apart, but there really was nothing that he could do. No matter how he tried to struggle, he couldn’t break free at all.
Xiao Ming just ignored him and turned to look at Chen Jing Yun who she had released temporarily.
He had been trying to use the commotion to escape, but he immediately stopped when he heard Xiao Ming”s voice coming from behind him.
“Are you going to talk now or do you want to keep playing that game?”
Chen Jing Yun trembled when he heard this before immediately turning around and using his one good hand to point at Senior Brother Tang on the ground.
As he pointed at him, he said, “It was all Tang Chen! This b*stard was the one that told us to go and teach you a lesson!”
