Realms In The Firmament
chapter-1086

The men motionlessly watched Ye Xiao moving from one side to another, pushing over one hundred archers off the wall one by one. The heads of the archers were rolling on the ground like a full cart of watermelons fell to the floor…

If only one or a few men died, it would be okay because all the Ye Clan people who were present had experienced killing. Some of them had even killed more than a hundred in total. However, when they were watching this scene, they all felt terrified.

What happened was too horrible! Too bloody!

Well, not bloody! There was no blood at all!

However, that made it much more horrible!

The archers had been waiting for the order on top of the wall. All their arrows were prepared. However, when they were standing by, somebody assassinated them in the same simple method—decapitation.

However, it was not a simple way to die!

All the archers were in the same posture as they were alive, with their bows and arrows in the hands.

Nothing changed.

What cruelly happened remained hidden until Ye Xiao went to push them.

Nobody noticed it before he did!

When their heads fell off their necks, there was still no blood!

When did he do it?

Nobody knew when or how he killed the archers!

When the archers died, their qi in the body remained running, so did their blood. They were beheaded but still standing fiercely… None of them fell down.

Such a weird truth was beyond their recognition. Nobody understood it.

In fact, since they couldn't understand it, they felt more terrified by it because human instinct feared the unknown the most. They all felt cold on their backs as if they were in a living hell…

The person who felt most terrified should be Ye Shuxin. He was cold from head to toe, trembling. In his eyes, there was despair. He didn't understand why such a weird thing would happen!

Looking at the dead bodies on the ground, he staggered. He was dazed, and he didn't know what to do.

On the other side, Ye Xiao, after pushing all those archers off the wall, jumped off the wall and looked innocent. He scratched his head and said, "Are these statues? Are they used to scare people… Heh, heh, heh… It scared the sh*t out of me… We Ye Clan people are indeed good at joking. We must have lots of capable men. Look at the statues. They are just like real men. The head and the body… Just like human bodies. I thought they were human! Impressive…"

The others all twisted their eyes and the muscles in their faces.

[Statues?]

[Do you think statues could be so lively?]

Even Ye Shuqing, Gramp Ye, was struck by the crazy and overwhelming thing his grandson had just done. He kept his eyes open for a long time without saying a word. After a while, he turned to his son and asked, "Nantian… That… What was that? Did you know what would happen all the time? Do you know how he did it?"

Ye Nantian was stunned too. He was almost lost in thoughts, and he said, "You are flattering me… I… I am lost too… When did he become so capable?"

"I see. I know. This is a joke. We are a great clan indeed. Big budget, big production, big effect! Let's call this an end now, guys."

Ye Xiao slowly walked over with a big smile, "We are family. It is fine to just make a joke on our own man. It is indeed a little bit wayward and annoying, but the sun will come up tomorrow; the wind will cool down tomorrow. The world will still be a good world…"

The others were all embarrassed. [The sun will come up for you, so will the wind. But these guys on the floor who have lost their heads… the sun will never rise upon them again… nor will the wind…]

On the other side, Ye Shuxin, who had been numbly standing there, finally became sober. He furiously stared at Ye Xiao. "Little bastard… Look what you have done…"

Ye Xiao suddenly frowned, and his face turned cold and murderous. When the others were all feeling dazed, he appeared in front of Ye Shuxin in a way nobody noticed. He casually lifted his hand, and it smacked Ye Shuxin right on the face. "You vile, shameless, filthy old f*cking dog! How dare you abuse me?"

Under all the men's watch, Ye Shuxin, who was in a high level of Dream Origin Stage, actually didn't dodge the smack. He was firmly slapped on the face.

His head moved to the left, and he spat out a few white teeth with blood and saliva.

It all turned silent! Even the drop of a pin could be heard from the silence!

Everybody was shocked and also couldn't believe what they just saw!

In such circumstances, Ye Xiao casually and effortlessly hit Ye Shuxin in a humiliating way. How powerful was he? What level was he in?

All those men felt cold and started to tremble when thinking of it!

"I hate it when people try to abuse me!" Ye Xiao shook his hand, looked angry, and showed killing intent in his eyes.

Ye Shuxin was shocked and then angrily cursed after he regained consciousness, "You little bastard! How dare you smack me… How dare y…"

Before he finished, Ye Xiao had approached again.

"You went against your own words. Yet you dare to scold me!" Ye Xiao shouted at him and then smacked him again.

- Pah! -

"Abuse me again if you dare! You filthy, rascal, paltry f*cking sh*thead!"

- Pah, pah, pah, pah… -

A series of smacks hit on Ye Shuxin's face.

After a while, this Ye Clan Chief had become a pighead.

What terrified the others was that… Ye Shuxin wasn't restrained on any aspect, however, he was unable to get away from a single one of the smacks... It even felt like he was reaching his right face to Ye Xiao after being smacked on the left!

One smacked, the other got hit. Perfect!

That was exactly Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai [1], which means one is willing to beat, while the other is willing to get beaten. However, they were going too much further than Zhou and Huang's story!

Ye Shuxin couldn't speak out loud, but he kept gritting his teeth and staring at Ye Xiao.

"Oh, I almost forgot. You said you wanted to kill me!" Ye Xiao smacked him one more time. Ye Shuxin's body immediately started to spin until it fell down to the floor after over dozens of rounds.

"Are this old dog's men all here today?" Ye Xiao suddenly turned to Ye Nantian and asked, "I think he got all his people here, right?"

Ye Nantian opened his mouth and showed his teeth, "I suppose so…"

"Well… How about we kill them all?" Ye Xiao asked in an extremely humble tone, "It should be… It should be okay, right? Is it okay?"

He wanted to kill them all…

What he said terrified them all!
