Chapter 733: Every Word Punishes the Heart, Every Word Sharp Like a Knife

Seeing Ye Xiu, Dong Fangbai flew into a rage.

"When Tang Bo made his move, you didn’t show up! When Dizang made his move, you didn’t show up! When Qin Qing made her move, you didn’t show up! When Ye Liuyun made his move, you didn’t show up! Why did you have to appear the moment it was my turn?"

Is it really that hard for me to have one moment in the spotlight?

"Get lost!" Ye Xiu bellowed.

"Oh!" Dong Fangbai flinched and quickly scurried to the side. In the face of Ye Xiu, he was utterly subservient.

"It’s Ye Xiu! That’s Ye Xiu! He’s back! Quick, kill him, hurry..."

Upon seeing Ye Xiu, Ye Tianming and the Long Family’s leader, both still clutched by the giant earthen hand, began to panic. Ye Tianming yelled, urging the dozen Seventh Realm martial artists to attack Ye Xiu.

However, the Seventh Realm experts didn’t dare make a move. Hadn’t they been hearing the pitiful screams still echoing from the pit?

"Bring everyone in the pit up," Ye Xiu said.

Tang Bo and Ye Liuyun nodded. Instantly, the collapsed ground at the bottom of the pit began to rise slowly. The over 2,000 members of the ’Clean Up Ye Xiu Alliance’ were piled on top of one another in a human pyramid. A giant, adorable pink pig was perched on the very top.

Seeing this, Ye Tianming, the Long Family’s leader, the dozen Seventh Realm martial artists, and the hundreds of injured people all sucked in a sharp breath.

So, Qin Qing hadn’t been bluffing earlier; there really was a pig in the pit, and it was shockingly massive!

"Pipi Pig, come here!" Qin Qing called out.

Pipi Pig ignored her. Instead, she jumped down from the human pile and shyly trotted over to Ye Xiu’s side, affectionately nuzzling him with her giant head.

"Are you, a sow, falling in love with me at first sight?" Ye Xiu’s face darkened.

Qin Qing and the others were speechless.

At the same time, Qin Qing and Leng Yue were incredibly surprised. This was Pipi Pig’s first time meeting Ye Xiu. Why was she acting so affectionate?

"Ye Xiu, you vile, unforgivable scum! Even if it costs us our lives, we will kill you today!" the white-haired elder glared at Ye Xiu. He was utterly disheveled, having been beaten up by Pipi Pig after falling into the pit.

"In what way am I so vile?" Ye Xiu asked coldly.

"Stop pretending! Ye Tianming and Long Tianba have already told us everything. For money, you slaughtered the Ye and Long families, raped the women of both families, and minced Ye Tianming’s son..." the white-haired elder postured, as if exposing all of Ye Xiu’s heinous crimes.

Before he could finish, Ye Xiu cut him off. "They said that, and you just believed them?"

Hearing this, Ye Tianming and the Long Family’s leader grew anxious. They couldn’t let Ye Xiu defend himself. If the ’Clean Up Ye Xiu Alliance’ learned the truth, they would be finished.

Therefore, Ye Tianming interjected before the white-haired elder could respond, "Elder, Ye Xiu is a wolf in sheep’s clothing! He’s an expert at smooth talk. You mustn’t listen to his nonsense! Kill him now!"

"Hmph!" The white-haired elder snorted. "I have a brain. Does he really think he can cover up his monstrous crimes with just a glib tongue? Dream on!"

Ye Tianming and the Long Family’s leader were overjoyed. Ye Tianming urged, "Then kill him! Kill him quickly!"

"You don’t need to rush me; I intend to," the white-haired elder’s killing intent surged. He gestured with his hand and commanded, "Attack! Even if we die, we must kill this beast in human form!"

With that, he led the charge toward Ye Xiu. The others who had just climbed out of the pit, along with the dozen Seventh Realm martial artists, followed suit.

"Ye Tianming is my grandfather. Ye Tianming’s son is my father," Ye Xiu stated indifferently.

The white-haired elder, who was rushing toward Ye Xiu, skidded to an abrupt halt. The others also stopped in their tracks, their faces a mask of confusion and bewilderment.

"What... what did you just say?" the white-haired elder asked in shock.

Seeing that Ye Xiu’s single sentence had halted the killing intent of the ’Clean Up Ye Xiu Alliance,’ Ye Tianming and the Long Family’s leader were about to continue their incitement to prevent the truth from being revealed.

But just as they were about to speak, a portion of the earthen hand holding them broke off and smeared mud over their mouths, silencing them.

The hearts of Ye Tianming and the Long Family’s leader sank.

It’s over!

"Words from my mouth don’t carry much credibility," Ye Xiu said impassively. "You all have smartphones. Why not go online and search for my name?"

Puzzled, the white-haired elder and the others took out their phones, typed "Ye Xiu" into the search bar, and hit search.

Instantly, over a hundred million webpages and posts related to Ye Xiu appeared, shocking them.

Was Ye Xiu that famous?

However, as they began to read through a few pages and posts, their expressions grew incredibly complicated. They read about how Ye Xiu had saved the populace ten years ago. They saw how he was framed and slandered. They saw how his mother and maternal grandparents were murdered. They saw how, with the entire world as his enemy, he was forced to flee overseas. They even read about how the Ye Family had treated him.

"Ye Xiu... I... we... we were deceived by Ye Tianming and Long Tianba. I..." The white-haired elder looked at Ye Xiu with deep regret, at a loss for words.

The others looked as if they wanted the ground to swallow them whole. They felt utterly embarrassed, disgraced, and worthless. Over 3,000 people had been played for fools by just two men.

"Do you remember when martial artists from around the world came to Biluo Island? Do you remember the 1,000 yachts that fearlessly confronted the aircraft carrier strike group?" Ye Xiu’s face was like frost, his voice ice-cold as he continued, "Those 2,500 people helped the world’s martial artists eliminate that strike group, opening a path to Biluo Island for everyone. But they died at your hands."

The faces of everyone in the ’Clean Up Ye Xiu Alliance’ changed drastically.

"The gunners we killed... they were... they were those people?" the white-haired elder stammered, his face pale with shock.

"Besides them, which other martial artists from around the world brought guns?" Ye Xiu retorted.

Now, the white-haired elder and the 3,000-plus members of the ’Clean Up Ye Xiu Alliance’ finally believed him.

"What a terrible sin!" The white-haired elder fell to his knees, remorsefully banging his head against the ground. "I... I listened to slander and caused the deaths of 2,500 heroes! I deserve to die!"

The other members of the alliance also knelt, feeling that it was the only way to express their overwhelming guilt and regret.

Ye Xiu looked down at them and continued coldly, "Months ago, I sent my people to Biluo Island to strike against the three Judicator Families and the Eternal Kingdom. They destroyed the island’s armory and stole the weapons and ammunition from the aircraft carrier strike group. Yet, you killed 2,500 of my subordinates.

"The three Judicator Families were breeding Mutated Beasts with the intent to attack nations across the globe. I subdued those beasts, hoping to use them against our common enemies, but you slaughtered hundreds of them.

"Everyone, are you accomplices of the three Judicator Families and the Eternal Kingdom?"

Ye Xiu’s words were like knives, each one a piercing blow that sliced the 3,000-plus members of the ’Clean Up Ye Xiu Alliance’ to ribbons.

"Weren’t... weren’t those the deeds of Huang Quan?" the white-haired elder asked, looking up at Ye Xiu.

"Huang Quan ordered You Ming to regress the Eternal Kingdom to the age of Cold Weapons. I carried out all the other tasks under his command," Ye Xiu explained.

The white-haired elder and the rest of the ’Clean Up Ye Xiu Alliance’ fell silent.

The actions of Ye Xiu and Huang Quan had saved the lives of countless martial artists from around the world. Yet they, deceived by lies, had come to kill Ye Xiu. They had killed 2,500 of his people and slaughtered hundreds of the Mutated Beasts he had intended to use against the three Judicator Families.

They were all sinners.

"Mr. Ye, I know that nothing we say can make up for our mistakes. The only way to atone for our sins is with our lives!" The white-haired elder raised a hand and struck his own forehead.

"Atonement with our lives!"

The 3,000-plus members of the ’Clean Up Ye Xiu Alliance’ all roared in unison, striking their own foreheads.
