Chapter 55

"Let me do it!"

The not-so-loud voice echoed around, and a group of people, including Zhang Su'er, stared at Ye Chu in amazement. No one had expected Ye Chu to say such a thing.

Ye Tian was momentarily stunned but quickly smiled at Ye Chu and said, "I'm glad you have this thought, but you're not their match! Step aside, I'll go!"

"Liáng Shàn! Páng Shào! Take him back!" Ye Chu ignored Ye Tian and instead shouted at Liáng Shàn and Páng Shào.

"Alright!" Páng Shào ran up excitedly, grabbing Ye Tian's hand, "It's rare for this kid to be willing to step up, let him go, why are you being so stubborn!"

Páng Shào was indescribably excited. Previously, no matter how he tried to persuade Ye Chu to get on the stage, he couldn't. But now, his grudge could finally be avenged.

"You..." Ye Tian wanted to say something but was interrupted by Páng Shào, "What are you talking about! It's much better for him to go than for you to go!"

Páng Shào held onto Ye Tian, afraid that Ye Chu would change his mind, and dragged him back.

As Ye Chu walked towards the arena, the crowd of Yaocheng looked at each other in disbelief, "How does he have the courage to get on the stage?"

The group of women who had just insulted Ye Chu also stared with wide eyes, their clear eyes full of surprise. Even Su Rong and Zhang Su'er couldn't help but show their astonishment.

"Ye Chu?!" Su Zhengping had never thought that the person who would step forward at this moment would be Ye Chu. He muttered in surprise and looked at his colleagues, who all wore expressions of astonishment!

"When did he have such courage? It seems he has changed a lot in these three years!"

"Rare indeed! But it's a pity, he has courage but no strength. It would be better if he had Ye Tian's strength!"

"..."

The crowd looked at Ye Chu walking towards the arena with complex expressions. Only Ye Tian was extremely anxious, trying to break free from Liáng Shàn and Páng Shào, "Quickly, let Ye Chu come back! If something happens to him, how can I face my deceased second uncle!"

"Why care about him? Relax! He's tougher than anyone else!" Páng Shào held onto Ye Tian, dissatisfied.

Ye Tian's face turned ashen with anger and he shouted at Su Rong, "Stop Ye Chu, don't let him go up!"

Su Rong nodded and quickly ran up, shouting at Ye Chu, "Ye Chu! Come back!"

Ye Chu turned around, still wearing a carefree and lazy smile, showing a few of his white teeth, "Su Xiaorong, didn't you all wonder what I did these three years? Today, I'll let you know!"

"Ye Chu, don't be stubborn!" Su Rong, seeing that Ye Chu was still interested in talking at this moment, couldn't help but get angry, her face blushing, showing the smoothness of her skin.

Ye Chu ignored Su Rong and turned his gaze to Ye Li, "You've always seen me as a rat, thinking there's no one more useless and despicable than me in this world! You think I stole what belonged to your two talented sons and wish to kill me! So today, I'll give it back to you. I want to save the life of your proud son, which should repay the debt of what I took from them!"

"Hmph!" Ye Li, seeing that Ye Chu was actually turning the blame on him, couldn't help but snort, "Mind your own business. If you don't have the ability, don't go up to die. Do you think people will change their view of you by doing this?"

Ye Chu laughed, "I never thought of changing anything! Being a scoundrel is quite good, at least there are no shackles. Unlike Ye Tian, who goes up foolishly knowing he will die."

"What right do you have to compare yourself to Ye Tian?" Ye Li was angry; comparing such a scoundrel to Ye Tian was an insult to his son.

Ye Chu shook his head, ignoring his anger, and looked at Su Rong, "Su Xiaorong! Didn't you want to know if it was me that night? I'll tell you, it was me!"

"What?! Really you?" Su Rong had guessed it might be Ye Chu, but when confirmed, she was still incredulous. Pointing at Ye Chu, she didn't know what to say, "You... you..."

Seeing Su Rong's loss of composure, Zhang Su'er couldn't help but frown and ask, "What that night? Su Rong, if he insists on going up, let him go! Hmph, if it weren't for Brother Ye Tian, who would care about him!"

Ye Chu stepped past the two women and walked towards the arena. Seeing Ye Chu walk up despite everyone's objections, the people of Yaocheng all looked uneasy.

They never expected that in the end, it would be the scoundrel they had always cursed who would stand up for them.

A group of young girls from Yaocheng, looking at the carefree young man on the stage, suddenly wondered if they had cursed him too much before.

Shashan, looking at the young man standing before him, couldn't help but laugh, "Hahaha! I heard about you a long time ago, the scoundrel of Yaocheng, hahaha, you actually dare to challenge me?"

Ye Chu shrugged, "I didn't want to at first! But you're too arrogant! My Yaoyao says men should learn to be humble, so I decided to eliminate you for her!"

"Just you?" Shashan found it amusing. A person who had been notorious in Yaocheng for years actually dared to challenge him? He thought he hadn't heard a funnier joke in years!

"Yes, just me!" Ye Chu smiled at him, "Go ahead. Everyone's time is precious, I still have to play with mud at home, so let's finish this quickly!"

Shashan laughed loudly, "Right! You can only play with mud, I'll send you to the mud right now!"

With that, Shashan kicked fiercely at Ye Chu, as fast as a gale, a powerful strike that was extremely domineering.

Shashan didn't want to waste time on such a waste of a person, so he aimed to kill with his first strike. The strike was about to reach Ye Chu, who stood there without moving.

"Quick, get out of the way!" Ye Tian couldn't help but shout, wanting to rush forward, but it was too late.

A group of women, including Zhang Su'er, couldn't bear to close their eyes. Even Chen Bowen's bones would crack under one of his kicks, so Ye Chu would surely die or lose half his life!

The people of Yaocheng, though they hated Ye Chu, couldn't help but sigh at this moment.

The kick landed on Ye Chu's chest without any doubt, but the expected outcome did not happen. At some point, Ye Chu's palm had blocked the strike. Despite Shashan's powerful kick, it didn't even cause a ripple on Ye Chu's palm.

"This can't be!" Shashan's heart was filled with shock. His strike was so terrifying that even Chen Bowen and Ye Tian wouldn't dare to block it head-on, but Ye Chu had actually blocked it!

The people of Yaocheng were stunned, looking at Ye Chu's still pale palm, wondering if they were seeing things.

A group of women, including Zhang Su'er, muttered, "Is Ye Chu's palm wearing a steel glove?"

"Keep going!" Ye Chu smiled at Shashan, "Your kick was too weak, remember to add more force!"

"I don't believe you're not afraid!" Shashan was enraged and kicked again. Just like before, Ye Chu blocked it with his hand, standing firm.

"Come on!" Ye Chu beckoned, still wearing a carefree smile.

"Looking for death!" Shashan roared, kicking repeatedly, each kick bringing a powerful wind, so fast that it was astonishing. He was using the先天级劈山腿 (先天级劈山腿, a powerful martial technique) in rapid succession.

Watching the enraged Shashan, Su Rong and the others were on edge, staring straight at the scene.

Shashan's attacks continued, his kicks relentless, but what stunned everyone was that Ye Chu stood there without moving, blocking the continuous attacks with one hand!

In the end, Shashan was panting, bent over next to Ye Chu, staring at him with wide eyes, his face full of shock.

"It's my turn, right?" Ye Chu said to Shashan.

Shashan stared at Ye Chu's palm, looking at the still pale hand, "What treasure are you wearing?"

This was also what most people in the audience were thinking. Could Ye Chu be wearing a powerful glove used by great cultivators? But for it to be invisible, the treasure must be incredibly magical!

Ye Chu didn't answer Shashan but turned to Páng Shào, "Didn't you always want to know how strong I am? Today, I'll show you!"

With these words, Páng Shào instantly tensed up, his eyes fixed on the scene, extremely excited!
