I Am A Prodigy

Faced with a dozen shimmering machetes, Ye Lingchen advanced and stepped forward instead of retreating.One step, two steps…

His pace was slow and steady, like a tiger stalking its prey, and the momentum of his body brought change to the surroundings, producing a gust of wind.

“Damn, you still want to act so pretentiously even though death is approaching! Do you think we’re shooting a movie?!”

Ye Lingchen’s appearance had a thick air of pretentiousness and he successfully attracted a wave of hatred to himself yet again. After all, his handsome face—coupled with his down-to-earth temperament—could easily arouse the hostility of people who were of the same gender as him.

The onlookers could not help but hold their breath right away. They looked at Ye Lingchen in shock and disbelief.

It was tense and exciting, but at the same time, they admired Ye Lingchen’s courage. It led their brains to short-circuit for a brief moment and they were unable to think.

Nearer!

He is getting closer!

Appearing suddenly!

Two people rushed before Ye Lingchen first, with a cruel smile hanging on the corners of their lips. They both swung the machete and it looked as if they were able to slice Ye Lingchen in half at any moment!

“Smelly little brat. Die!”

Their actions were merciless and the machete produced the sound of breaking through the air, making for an absolutely terrifying scene.

Blocking them from wealth was like killing one’s own parents. Such enmity made it unable for them to live under the same sky!

Ye Lingchen’s intervention caused them to lose a total of more than two million yuan. Once the money was divided, one person lost nearly 200,000RMB!

200,000RMB disappeared in just one night!

Their eyes were red with anger as they thought of that, while their livers were twitching with distress.

For desperados like them, money was everything. They felt unworthy if they did not get revenge for it!

Savage! Too savage!

The eyes of those onlookers were unbearable. Many people glanced aside and did not dare to look again. Some people even covered their eyes with their hands.

“Sh*t! Eat sh*t!”

Seeing that scene, Liu Sanshui roared in excitement and looked at Ye Lingchen with a deep-seated hatred in his eyes. Still, his mouth was swollen, so his pronunciation was very inaccurate.

The cold light of the machete was only a foot away from Ye Lingchen!

Ding!

An extremely crisp and light sound resounding through the crowd and appeared softly in everyone’s ears.

“This… How is this possible?!”

The man with the knife was stunned, and so was Liu Sanshui and the crowd of onlookers!

It could clearly be seen that Ye Lingchen raised his hands and extended two fingers on both hands respectively, before using those fingers to clamp down easily on the two machetes!

Indeed, he did so easily. Very easily!

In everyone’s eyes, Ye Lingchen seemed to have exerted no effort. His actions were as simple as eating or drinking, and there was not much change in his eyes.

“Ling… Lingxi Fingers[1]?!” Someone could not help but exclaim.

“You, you…”

The expression on both individuals changed drastically and they focused their gaze all of a sudden. They were very surprised and they felt that fear had crept into their emotions.

It was because they realized they could not pull away from their weapons no matter how much force they used. Ye Lingchen’s two fingers were as solid as iron and his power…was absolutely terrifying!

Liu Sanshui nearly glared his eyes out, as if he had seen a ghost.

The next moment, Ye Lingchen’s hands loosened and his body leaned forward all of a sudden. He clenched his hands into fists and his entire body resembled the wind, slamming both fists right in the center of their abdomens!

“Hmph!”

The two men’s bodies stiffened suddenly and they immediately went limp on Ye Lingchen’s arms. Their whole body trembled, but they could not make a sound, and the intense pain nearly caused them to begin convulsing.

Boom!

The two of them collapsed to the ground, covered their abdomen with both hands, and twitched uncontrollably.

Ye Lingchen did not even give them a second look. He raised one hand and gestured toward the stunned group of people. “Come on!”

A look of fear flashed across the eyes of that group and they hesitated.

“If you’re not coming, then I’ll go to you!”

Ye Lingchen sneered. His legs advanced, and every step produced a stomping sound as if he were stepping on their hearts.

His pace was hurried, but as he moved forward, the group of people began retreating slightly after being unable to bear the pressure.

Step, step, step!

The sound of footsteps remained the same, like a magic chant, but an invisible pressure had enveloped the entire area. Ye Lingchen’s footsteps bore down on that group of people, eliciting cold sweat on their foreheads and rapid breathing.

“Kill!”

“Fight him!”

Eventually, they were unable to bear the torturous situation. Blue veins popped up on their foreheads and they surged forward with a violent roar.

Ye Lingchen casually grabbed two individual’s arms and folded them abruptly!

Crack!

Both their hands were immediately dislocated. Ye Lingchen delivered a kick and the two of them knelt on the ground with a thud.

Then, he raised his gaze slightly, then lifted one hand and motioned it toward the person who rushed forward!

Slap!

A loud slap was heard and the man’s face became deformed as a result. His entire body rose into the air, spun a few times, then landed with his teeth all scattered on the ground. The slap stunned him completely.

After dealing with them, Ye Lingchen continued to advance. No one could stop him and no one could escape.

Along the way, the crisp sound of cracking bones was heard continuously. Ye Lingchen showed no mercy but stopped short of killing them. As for their means of torture, he did whatever he wanted.

When everything returned to calmness, the onlookers were stunned and even looked at Ye Lingchen in fear.

Compared with the group of people holding machetes in hand, Ye Lingchen’s actions showed them what ruthlessness truly was.

The group of people either had their faces deformed so badly that their mothers could not recognize them, or had hands and feet completely dislocated. Some were even twisted like fried dough twists. Blood pooled on the ground and it was like purgatory on earth.

There were no screams because they had all lose the ability to make any sound under all that pain.

Liu Sanshui was terrified to the extreme. He buried his head deeply for fear that Ye Lingchen would not notice him and his heart was completely shrouded in dread.

“Phew…”

Ye Lingchen let out a drawn-out sigh, and after having the chance to vent, he finally felt more at ease.

“I told you earlier that you’re unlucky. You could’ve shown up at any time, but you just had to do it when I’m in a bad mood.” Ye Lingchen shook his head. “Now, look at what you’ve brought upon yourselves.”

Everyone was silent “…”

Liu Sanshui was angry but he did not dare to voice it out. ‘Why the f*ck are you blaming me?’

“You… Are you God Ye?”

At that moment, a weak voice sounded in the crowd, leaving the others in shock. Everyone then looked at Ye Lingchen one after another.

“F*ck me, it really is God Ye!”

“No wonder he was so powerful! He really is God Ye!”

“God Ye is very skilled. He was the one who fought with the giant python in the water.”

“Praise be to God Ye for coming! This group of people is really disgusting. How dare they scam people at this kind of time! They’re heartless!”

“God Ye, you said earlier that our child is fine. Is that true?”

…

The night was dark and no one could recognize Ye Lingchen before. Many people therefore exclaimed their surprise after recognizing him at that moment.

However, many others were still silent. Their faces were dispirited and nothing else mattered to them—their sole concern as of then was their children…

This is a reference to the technique used by Lu Xiaofeng (陆小凤) in the Wuxia novel series called Lu Xiaofeng Series (陆小凤系列). The technique is exactly the same as Ye Lingchen executed: clipping weapons using two fingers, usually the index and middle finger.
