"You aren’t afraid of me? Does that mean you’re not afraid of me anymore?"

Chen Changwu squinted at the emaciated man, his menacing gaze paired with a face resembling an Evil Ghost, sending chills down the spine at first glance.

"No... no, Alliance Leader Chen, I... I’m afraid of you, I..."

The emaciated man hurriedly began to explain after hearing Chen Changwu’s words but was interrupted before he could finish, "But just now you told me you’re not afraid. So, you were lying to me."

Saying this, Chen Changwu fixed his stare firmly on the emaciated man, the look suggesting he would take action unless the man provided a reasonable explanation.

"Alliance Hierarch, spare me, Alliance Hierarch, spare me... "

Upon hearing Chen Changwu’s words and looking into his eyes, the emaciated man could no longer contain his fear, falling to his knees with a thud in front of Chen Changwu, much like a servant from ancient times begging for mercy, constantly kowtowing and shouting for clemency.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

The emaciated man kept kowtowing with no reservation, his forehead striking the marble floor and producing a deep, muted sound.

In almost no time, the man’s forehead swelled, and traces of blood began to seep out, yet it seemed as if he felt nothing, continuing his ceaseless kneeling and bowing.

"Hahahahaha..."

Chen Changwu looked at the emaciated man constantly kowtowing and begging for forgiveness with a brazen, arrogant laugh. This was the life he desired, witnessing those who once underestimated him now kneeling before him, seeking his pardon. The exhilaration of holding someone else’s life in his hands was overwhelmingly intoxicating, showcasing the benefits of power.

Chen Changwu found himself increasingly enjoying watching others kneel and kowtow before him.

He waited until the emaciated man’s forehead was bloodied and the floor stained red before speaking casually, "Stand up! Remember, this is the first time and the last time. I dislike being lied to, and you know the consequences better than I do."

"Yes, yes, thank you, Alliance Hierarch. Thank you, Alliance Hierarch. I won’t dare again."

After hearing Chen Changwu’s words, the emaciated man breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stood up, not daring to wipe the blood off his face as it trickled down his cheeks.

"Speak up! Waking me up this early, what exactly happened?" Chen Changwu glanced at the emaciated man and said indifferently.

Upon hearing Chen Changwu’s inquiry, the emaciated man took a deep breath and, without hesitation, said, "Alliance Hierarch, our plan has achieved preliminary success. Over the past two days, we’ve continually harassed Yama Palace, forcing them to constantly defend themselves. The results are starting to show. Just this morning, an infuriated Yama Palace retaliated against several of our locations."

"Infuriated, good, very good. We want him to get infuriated."

Chen Changwu’s face showed a trace of excitement, a burning hatred flashing in his eyes. He would never forget crawling out of a restaurant like a dog, the greatest humiliation of his life. He vowed to uproot Yama Palace and ensure Lu Tianxing and Lin Yafei find no resting place, willing to become neither human nor ghost to achieve it.

"Besides this, is there any other movement from Yama Palace?" Chen Changwu asked in a deep voice.

"Just this morning, Yama Palace seems to have grown impatient and began attacking our affiliated forces. Yama Palace’s strength is formidable. Although we managed to fend off their attack, our losses were considerable. Moreover, in this confrontation, Alliance Hierarch, we discovered that Yama Palace’s strength is greater than anticipated. If we continue harassing them, Yama Palace might truly reach the breaking point, and if it comes to an all-out confrontation, we may not benefit," the emaciated man said slowly, looking at Chen Changwu.

"Heavy losses, so what."

After hearing the emaciated man’s words, Chen Changwu said indifferently, "Pass my orders to continue harassing Yama Palace; I want them restless 24/7. Anyone who dares retreat even a step will be executed without mercy."

As his words fell, the atmosphere around Chen Changwu grew increasingly oppressive, like a fierce beast.

"And tell them, Young Master Tang has said, if we can destroy Yama Palace, none of its powers will be taken by him; all will be given to them, and how much they can obtain depends on their skills. But anyone who dares retreat and disrupt the morale will not only die, his entire family will be annihilated without leaving a trace."

"Yes, Alliance Hierarch, I understand. I’ll make arrangements immediately."

The emaciated man nodded, giving Chen Changwu a respectful salute before cautiously heading outside.

Watching the emaciated man’s departing figure, Chen Changwu suddenly stood up from the sofa and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, pulling back the curtain to gaze outside, eyes glimmering with a hatred as deep as his bones, releasing a beast-like roar from his mouth: "Lin Yafei, you vile b*tch, just you wait. This is merely the beginning; I’ll ensure you find no resting place. No, I’ll return all the humiliation you gave me, making you crawl like a b*tch before me, begging for mercy. And you, Lu Tianxing, you little bastard, just you wait. I will tear you to pieces and grind your bones to dust, leaving you no place to die..."

...

Meanwhile, as Chen Changwu prepared to further harass Yama Palace, in Beijing, at a private club.

Lin Yafei and Shen Manjun sat together, chatting and laughing.

With a bright smile on her face, Lin Yafei showed not a hint of displeasure from the recent events, as if the Qingtian Alliance targeting Yama Palace was merely small-time bickering, unable to stir any waves in her heart.

"Sister Manjun, where have you been lately? I haven’t seen you at all," Lin Yafei said after taking a sip from the cup of tea in front, looking at Shen Manjun beside her.
