Rebirth of the Cultivation Devil-Chapter 1106 - 1031: Brother, I Understand Now
Yun Xi waited for a long time, and since she felt nothing, she opened her eyes in a daze.
"Am I, am I not dead?" Yun Xi asked, bewildered.
Ye Qingfeng looked at Yun Xi and sighed slightly in his heart; he hadn’t expected Yun Xi to have the courage to block a bullet for him.
Although in Ye Qingfeng’s view, the bullet was harmless, in the eyes of an ordinary person like Yun Xi, it was something deadly.
Just now, if it weren’t for Ye Qingfeng’s intervention, Yun Xi would have been doomed.
"You’re not afraid of death, huh?" Ye Qingfeng’s tone wasn’t gentle; instead, he spoke coldly.
Yun Xi’s act of shielding him from the bullet surprised him, but surely, he couldn’t accept Yun Xi.
The more Yun Xi acted like this, the more aloof Ye Qingfeng became; a boundary had to be drawn between them, or it would end up harming Yun Xi.
"I, I didn’t think that much. I just saw that person aiming at you, and my heart was very anxious; I didn’t want you to die, so I just, my mind went blank at that moment."
Seeing Ye Qingfeng’s indifferent expression, Yun Xi spoke meekly as if she was a little girl who made a mistake.
Her delicate face was flushed, with a sheen of cold sweat on her smooth forehead. It was imaginable how scared Yun Xi was just now. Even now, Ye Qingfeng could feel Yun Xi’s body slightly trembling.
Even Ye Qingfeng felt a slight stirring in his heart.
He sighed softly; initially, he was quite annoyed by Yun Xi, an arrogant celebrity, but later found that she wasn’t that bad, considering her an acquaintance.
He never imagined it would reach this point.
But now, Ye Qingfeng couldn’t treat Yun Xi as just an acquaintance anymore.
"You’re too foolish," Ye Qingfeng sighed softly.
"I acted on impulse, honestly, I was pretty scared just now too," Yun Xi whispered, truly frightened, lacking the strength to speak.
"By the way, Ye Qingfeng, how are we okay? I clearly heard the gunshot."
At this point, Ye Qingfeng’s expression had turned cold. He opened his right palm, revealing a peculiar-looking bullet lying inside.
Yun Xi gasped, covering her mouth. Could this bullet have been caught by Ye Qingfeng? That’s unbelievable!
Even characters from special forces couldn’t achieve this, catching bullets barehanded—is this still a human?
Su Xu and Zhou Ya were already dumbfounded with fear; Yun Xi had her eyes closed and didn’t see, but they witnessed it firsthand.
This person actually caught a bullet barehanded—what kind of skill is this? Is this still human? Su Xu and Zhou Ya’s hearts trembled wildly, utterly astonished by Ye Qingfeng, overturning their worldview.
How is this possible? This is downright abnormal!
Most composed was Jiang Chao, who had seen Ye Qingfeng’s prowess before; though shocked by this formidable scene again, his heart more than anything felt exhilarated.
Right, exhilarated.
"Now you understand why I’m so afraid of him, right? I told you, breaking your arms was to save you." Jiang Chao said calmly.
Su Xu and Zhou Ya were stunned into silence; indeed, this person is too abnormal, catching a bullet barehanded—if he were to act himself, their fate could be much worse.
Seeing Su Xu and others like this, Jiang Chao felt an immense satisfaction, letting you laugh at me earlier, now do you feel scared, realizing how ridiculous you were then?
"Luckily, you only wanted me to break his arms at the time; if you truly wanted to kill him, I assure you, you’d already be dead now!" Jiang Chao sneered, looking down haughtily.
Su Xu and Zhou Ya broke into cold sweat, realizing they had walked through Ghost Gate without even knowing it.
The assassin was also stunned; it was his first time encountering someone who could catch his bullet. He knew the world had Martial Artists, but he had never heard of Martial Artists catching bullets!
This isn’t human!
Ye Qingfeng’s eyes were cold, his fury rising; he slightly raised his left hand, a white light shot out—a moment later, the assassin’s chest was pierced.
A gush of blood flowed wildly; the white light turned midair and returned to Ye Qingfeng’s hand.
The assassin fell directly to the ground, blood pooling everywhere. Ye Qingfeng’s expression was extremely cold; it was unfortunate the assassin had provoked Ye Qingfeng.
Su Xu was terrified, feeling like he was going to wet himself—what just happened, how did this person suddenly die?
He felt on the brink of madness, fear instantly engulfing his heart, seeing nothing other than the brief flash of white light, instantly killing the assassin!
Cold sweat poured from Su Xu’s forehead.
Indeed, someone was killed, and having not seen how it happened, why wouldn’t Su Xu be terrified?
Now, he finally understood what Jiang Chao meant by "You’ll thank me"; he truly must thank him for stepping in and not this abnormal person.
"Brother, I understand now, thank you!" Su Xu said bitterly and fearfully.
Jiang Chao felt immensely satisfied.
Shui Yiyi!
Ye Qingfeng felt a stirring in his heart; Shui Yiyi and Shui Ruyi were still inside. He expanded his Divine Sense, quickly locating Shui Yiyi and Shui Ruyi.
Fortunately, they were both unharmed.
At that moment, Ye Qingfeng’s Divine Sense suddenly felt something amiss—this was a feeling he had earlier.
Then, Ye Qingfeng felt something was wrong; a sense of danger stirred him as his Divine Sense finally detected a bullet suddenly shooting toward him.
The bullet spun extremely fast—it was a sniper bullet.
At that moment, Ye Qingfeng’s Flying Sword appeared, flashing white light, forcibly slicing the sniper bullet into two.
Ye Qingfeng casually glanced in the bullet’s direction, seeing a shadow flicker and disappear into the night.
Ye Qingfeng certainly wouldn’t let him go.
"I need to chase down that person; stay here and wait for me." Ye Qingfeng instructed Yun Xi.
As Ye Qingfeng was about to leave, Yun Xi suddenly embraced Ye Qingfeng from behind.
"Be careful." Yun Xi said softly.
Ye Qingfeng was speechless; he was merely chasing the assassin, not going on a life-threatening mission—it felt overly dramatic, like a farewell.
"I understand."
Yet, as Yun Xi had just blocked a bullet for him, Ye Qingfeng didn’t respond too coldly, just nodded slightly.
Ye Qingfeng didn’t go straight after the shadow but ran toward Lan Ji instead—by then, Lan Ji was fiercely battling two men; none were Martial Artists, just top-tier among ordinary people.
Therefore, even after fighting for so long—with some minor injuries—none had subdued the others.
Ye Qingfeng moved swiftly, in an instant arriving beside Lan Ji.
