I, a prison guard in the Heavenly Prison, secretly became invincible thanks to the system.

"What do you want..."

Xie Zhu suppressed her fear and gritted her teeth as she spoke each word clearly.

Ye Kang withdrew his Hundred Flowers Sword Qi and said calmly, "It's very simple, just follow the Xie family's rules."

He looked at Xie Qingyuan, whose face was pale, and a murderous glint appeared in his eyes.

"You, fight me."

Xie Qingyuan trembled and looked at Xie Zhu for help.

However, the latter just frowned and said, "This is not our intention. Someone wanted to test your strength, so we had no choice but to do it."

Ye Kang nodded: "Understood, let's get started."

"..."

"Based on age, I'm still your cousin. Do you really intend to fight me?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Qingyuan quickly chimed in, "That's right! You can't lay a hand on my sister. What kind of skill is it to bully a woman!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Ye Kang struck down with his palm, aiming straight for Xie Zhu's face.

This move was slow, and Xie Zhu quickly dodged it.

Ye Kang smirked; he wanted her to make a move.

The next second, he kicked Xie Zhu horizontally with his right foot, directly hitting Xie Zhu in the abdomen. The immense force struck Xie Zhu as if he had been hit head-on by a giant millstone.

In an instant, Xie Zhu had been kicked against the courtyard wall.

With a spurt, blood gushed out. Xie Zhu's pupils widened, and boundless fear prevented her from mustering the slightest courage to fight back.

This person is very strong!

He was stronger than she had imagined!

She turned to run out of the courtyard, but when she looked up, Ye Kang was already standing in front of her.

Without a doubt, another kick came.

Xie Zhu was sent flying by the wall again. This time, the force of the kick was greater, and the true energy was stronger. The originally solid wall shattered in response.

Xie Zhu was also encased in bricks and stones, and his fate is unknown.

"sister!"

Xie Qingyuan cried out in surprise. Before he could react, a dark shadow slid past him, and then he saw another young man next to him being blasted away by Ye Kang's punch.

The bloodstains traced an arc in the air before splattering onto the lawn.

Ye Kang turned to look at the stunned Xie Qingyuan.

"Don't worry, I know my limits. They won't die, but their internal organs will be damaged and their dantian will be crippled. If they can recuperate in bed for a year or two, they might be able to become third-rate martial artists."

Ye Kang spoke calmly.

However, to Xie Qingyuan, it was a tremendous shock.

Destroying a martial artist's Qi Sea is equivalent to turning them into a cripple. Even if they can be cured, their hope of learning martial arts is cut off.

This was an unbearable torture for a martial artist who had once been high and mighty!

Especially among the four powerful families, becoming such a useless person means their future lives will be devoid of any dignity.

Xie Qingyuan couldn't help but cry and squatted down helplessly on the ground.

"No...you can't do this..."

Ye Kang remained unmoved, grabbed him by the collar, and lifted him up.

"Who sent you?"

"It's the Sixth Young Master..."

Why is he testing me?

"I have no idea……"

Ye Kang didn't ask any more questions; knowing just one name was enough.

He simply lowered his voice and said, word by word, "My brother doesn't have the skill to practice martial arts, but you will never be able to learn his skills in your entire lives. Remember, you brought this upon yourselves."

After saying that, Xie Qingyuan's eyes widened, and he raised his hand to retaliate.

But it was too late; a fist had already landed on his stomach.

Xie Qingyuan punched Ye Ping, and Ye Kang punched him back.

This single punch, imbued with the domineering power of Imperial True Qi, instantly tore apart Xie Qingyuan's Qi Sea and destroyed his meridians.

He won't die, but he'll be confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life and will never be able to stand up again.

When Ye Kang first arrived at the Xie family, he did not want to kill anyone.

After doing all that, he turned and left. Lingyu glared at the few crippled people on the ground with satisfaction and quickly followed.

"Second Young Master! I think I heard about the Sixth Young Master they were talking about at the banquet during the day."

"is it?"

"Yes, my uncles say that Sixth Young Master Xie Jinghong is the most talented junior in the Xie family. At such a young age, his strength has already surpassed that of many elders!"

"I know, let's go back."

Ye Kang didn't care about the Sixth Young Master, but he would never let the matter of bullying his elder brother go unresolved.

……

Day two.

News of what happened that night had quickly spread throughout the Xie family.

Everyone gaped, listening incredulously to the insider's account.

Many people initially didn't believe it, thinking it was just a rumor.

But when they saw the black-faced man with a missing ear, the critically injured Xie Qingyuan, and the desperate Xie Zhu, they all fell silent.

Many people spread the word and secretly observed the villa where the Ye family lived.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Ye family has gotten themselves into a huge mess.

The elders of those injured will definitely not let this go.

However, to everyone's disappointment, not only did no one go to Ye Kang, but even Xie Zhu's parents remained silent, simply closing their doors to visitors, as if nothing had happened the previous night.

Meanwhile, in the attic of Xie Jinghong, the sixth young master of the Xie family.

Xie Jinghong, dressed in white, stood aloofly on the pavilion, hands behind his back, gazing into the distance.

Behind him stood a group of young people, all with extremely grim expressions.

"Xie Jinghong, what do you mean! Xie Zhu was beaten up like that by that outsider because of you, and you don't even show any gratitude!"

A burly young man glared angrily at Xie Jinghong, showing no fear on his face.

The young man in white, whose clothes were as white as snow, didn't even look at him, but simply spoke calmly.

"Xie Zhu prides himself on his meticulousness, yet he can't even handle the simplest tasks. Perhaps becoming a cripple would be safer than being a martial artist."

"Can you say that again!"

The burly young man's expression changed, and he almost couldn't resist making a move.

However, Xie Jinghong only turned her head slightly and glanced at him, which made him stop clenching his fists.

"I also advise you not to provoke that Ye Kang. Since the head of the family has ordered everyone not to pursue the matter, it means that the return of the Third Madam this time is not so simple."

"So Xie Zhu was beaten for nothing?!"

"I have no interest in avenging a piece of trash, and naturally, I won't let anyone who stands in my way off the hook."

A glint of sword light flashed in Xie Jinghong's eyes, and his white robes fluttered in the wind, sending a chill through everyone.

……

Simultaneously.

Ye Kang himself was also puzzled by the Xie family's reaction.

I thought someone would come looking for trouble, but nothing happened.

He didn't need to worry about his parents' safety either; at least within the Xie family mansion, with his maternal uncle Xie Liancheng there, they were perfectly safe.

Since no one came to his door, Ye Kang decided not to wait any longer. He changed into a black outfit and swaggered out of the Xie residence.

Although they mainly came to visit relatives, they still had to fulfill their official duties.

Holding the Emperor's secret order and the Imperial City Guard's token, he walked directly into the Jinling City Lord's Mansion.

The Emperor ordered him to study at the Qinglin Guard for half a year, so naturally he had to make an appearance.

However, the Azure Scale Guards are too mysterious, and ordinary people would never know where their branches are. If Ye Kang wanted to find them, he could only ask the city lord.
