Take Off Your Pants!
Zhao Ye's vicious words didn't really have much substance to them. Their enmity had been sown long ago when he'd robbed Scarface. He was only saying this to save some face in front of the townsfolk of Black Ox Town.
Ye Zichen simply laughed it off, but when Wu Di heard this, he was furious.
"How dare you hoot around, huh? Master, don't stop me! I'll smash his dog head in!"
Wu Di roared angrily and charged forward. Ye Zichen naturally knew exactly what he meant. Ye Zichen reached out and grabbed Wu Di's arm, then shouted at Zhao Ye and the others.
"Hurry up and run!"
At the same time, Wu Di looked like he was struggling with all his might.
"Master, let go! Your apprentice has to smash his dog head in! Don't stop me! My temper …. "
"Hurry up and run!"
Ye Zichen had played the good guy all the way to the end. Judging from how real his expression was, it would be unfair not to give him an Oscar.
Zhao Ye wasn't quite sure what this master and disciple duo were up to, but he knew that if they really fought, he might not necessarily be Wu Di's match.
Zhao Ye didn't dare hesitate. He hurriedly shouted at his subordinates.
"Let's go!"
Under the watchful eyes of the townsfolk, the vast procession fled in panic. Scarface wanted to blend in with the group and leave, but before he could take more than a few steps, he heard a nightmarish voice calling out to him.
"You …. Wait …."
Ye Zichen didn't say who it was, but Scarface knew full well who it was. He could only grimace and obediently stop.
"Grandpa, please spare me just this once."
Scarface truly broke down. He never would have guessed that Ye Zichen was so strong. Even Zhao Ye couldn't do anything to him.
When he heard Scarface's tone, he was on the verge of tears, but Ye Zichen simply smiled warmly and walked up to him.
"Don't be nervous. You just gave me a huge gift. How could I possibly do anything to you? Don't you think so?"
Scarface knelt on the ground, unable to voice his bitterness. What was going on? He'd been robbed once, and that was one thing. Now that he'd finally managed to regroup and find the Axe Gang's captain to avenge him, Ye Zichen and the others had robbed him again.
Not only had his years of savings gone up in smoke, but Zhao Ye had also been robbed clean by them. He was a little worried about how he would face his immediate superior when he returned to the Axe Gang.
The more Scarface thought about it, the more nervous he became. However, the most important thing he had to do now was to get past this fiend in front of him.
"My lord, you're right … I'm really blind. Just look at how young and ignorant I am. Just let me go this time. If you let me go, I will definitely burn incense and pray to Buddha for you when I return. "
Scarface's tone was especially sincere. If he had patted his chest twice and shed two lines of tears, the effect might have been even better.
Ye Zichen smiled wryly and shook his head.
"Burning incense and praying to Buddha is one thing, but this …. Take off your pants."
The matter with the Axe Gang finally came to an end. Scarface ran off once more, butt naked. However, this time, he did so under the watchful eyes of countless people. Quite a few Black Ox Town residents even recorded this scene with jade slips.
When the townspeople looked at Ye Zichen, their gazes were filled with reverence. In the mortal great district, he was the only person who dared provoke the Axe Gang like this.
Furthermore, in their hearts, Ye Zichen might very well have reached the immortal king level. This sort of existence was as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns in the Sky Great District. For him to appear in their mortal great district, they couldn't help but be astonished.
Little did they know, at the same time, on the ancient road from Black Ox Town to Raging Flame City …
It was impossible to tell what Zhao Ye's expression was, but he was currently sitting on a strange boulder by the side of the road. His lackeys stood behind him.
Not long after, Scar Face, who had his pants stolen, appeared in their line of sight with his butt bare.
Despite having his pants stolen, Scarface wasn't as devastated as he'd been at the start. He seemed somewhat used to it. It was just that his sense of shame left him a little embarrassed.
Right now, he wasn't thinking about revenge. The only thing on his mind was how to face Zhao Ye.
To his surprise, however, Zhao Ye, the person he'd been so worried about this whole time, was waiting for him not too far away.
On the ancient path, Scarface's body stiffened. After a brief moment of hesitation, he patted his face and ran towards Zhao Ye with a wide smile.
"Captain, how could this lowly one make you wait for me here?"
Zhao Ye, who was sitting on the rock, glanced at him. When he saw that he was naked, he pointed at the ancient tree with his right hand. The ancient tree's leaves scattered to the ground and then floated into the air. It was as if a thread had passed through them and turned into a grass skirt that landed beside Scarface.
"Just make do with it. We've all been robbed by him. We don't have any clothes for you."
"Sir …" Tears of gratitude flashed through Scarface's eyes. He covered his forehead, put on the grass skirt, and fell to the ground, choking with sobs. "Sir, you're too good to me. I've tricked you this time. Once we return to the gang, I'll definitely do my best to make up for your losses."
Zhao Ye was still holding a grudge against Scarface, but when he sensed his true feelings, he could only sigh and let it go.
"Forget it. If it wasn't for my own will, I wouldn't have come here. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for not being skilled enough. "
"How can you blame Sir? If you want to blame someone, blame that Ye guy," Scarface snorted. "He's clearly an expert, but he just had the bad taste of pretending to be weak and tricking Sir into falling into his trap. If you want to blame someone, blame that Ye guy for being too evil!"
"That's right. That Ye guy really went a little overboard."
Zhao Ye's expression instantly darkened. His fist fiercely hammered the odd-looking stone beside the ancient path. Suddenly, the odd-looking stone collapsed and turned into countless fragments.
Scarface and the others were frightened out of their wits. Zhao Ye snorted with a dark expression.
"We can't just let this go."
"That's right. We can't just let this go," Scarface shouted with his chest puffed out.
"You think so too, don't you?" Zhao Ye glanced at Scarface, his eyes gleaming with arrogance. "Ever since our Axe Gang was founded, it's always us who rob others. When have we ever let others rob us? When we get back, come with me to see the leader. Hmph … I'll make sure to teach that Ye guy a lesson! "
"I'll make sure to teach him a lesson!" Scarface shouted again.
"I'll make sure to teach him a lesson!"
The surrounding lackeys also followed suit and shouted their slogans. Their shouts seemed to be able to shake the heavens. Zhao Ye, who stood at the front of the group, nodded in satisfaction. Then he waved his hand and snorted.
"Let's go back to the branch!"
Only then did Scarface let out a long sigh. Life was like a drama. It all depended on one's acting skills. If his acting hadn't been on point, he might very well have lost his life.
Zhao Ye felt that Ye Zichen had fallen for provoking the Axe Gang, but Scarface felt that …. The Axe Gang had fallen for provoking that fiend, Ye Zichen!
As for seeking revenge on Ye Zichen, that was nonsense ….
Scarface understood now. Seeking revenge on Ye Zichen wasn't very likely, but …. It seemed that being Ye Zichen's lackey had a better future than staying with the Axe Gang!
Especially now that Ye Zichen only had Wu Di by his side. If he forsook the darkness and joined the light, he'd become a senior figure!
As he considered this, Scarface felt more and more convinced. Furthermore, it seemed that Ye Zichen didn't have any enmity towards him.
It seemed he had to find a way to defect to Ye Zichen!
After the Axe Gang members left, the townsfolk tactfully returned to the city. However, as they did so, they were especially excited.
This was the Axe Gang! Ye Zichen had beaten them so badly that they didn't even dare let out a fart. As for those who'd once been robbed by the Axe Gang, although they hadn't done it themselves, they were secretly delighted just by watching.
Before long, only Ye Zichen and Wu Di remained outside the city gates.
"Master."
When everyone else had left, Wu Di scratched his head in embarrassment. It'd been at least a dozen years since he'd last talked trash about the Axe Gang. Now that they'd all left, he really felt a bit embarrassed when he thought back to what he'd said.
"Just now, I …."
"You were pretty good just now." Ye Zichen nodded in satisfaction, then encouraged him. "Sometimes, it's important to talk big. You might lose, but you can't lose in spirit. You know that, right? It doesn't matter whether or not you can beat them, you have to talk big. In the future, you can talk as much as you want. Don't worry, you still have your master's support. Also, there's something like what you and I did just now. Do you know? "
"Yes, master!"
Wu Di cupped his hands, then saw Ye Zichen toss him a few spatial pouches and spatial rings.
"I'll leave them all to you."
Wu Di put the spatial pouches and rings away, then was about to say something when he noticed that Ye Zichen's brows were tightly knit.
"Master?"
Ye Zichen's brows knit together, but he quickly composed himself. These Axe Gang members really were never-ending. Next, he retracted his gaze and looked at Wu Di.
"Apprentice, let's not stay in Black Ox Town any longer. Let's go to Raging Flame City!"
He couldn't just let them come knocking on his door all the time. It was impolite not to reciprocate. Ye Zichen felt ….
