Chapter 29 The Downfall of the Yun Family
```
Just when everyone was still in shock, Ye Ling, however, showed a look of disappointment: "Just three meters, a true Grandmaster should be able to break through nine meters, if that's all you've got, you're not even qualified to fight me!"
The people were astonished, their eyes wide with the same kind of stare one might give a lunatic.
Had this young man gone mad? After witnessing Master Chen's terrifying martial arts, he still dared to boast. Did he really think he was an unparalleled expert, looking down on even a high-caliber figure like Master Chen?
"Fine, I have never met a young man as arrogant as you in all my years, and I must see for myself what abilities you possess!" Master Chen raised his hand, gesturing for Ye Ling to come forward and fight.
But Ye Ling didn't move an inch; instead, Ye Jiu, standing beside him, stepped forward with disdain: "You think you're worthy to fight our young master? I see your abilities are too poor. Let our weakest here, Ye Shijiu, be the one to fight you!"
No sooner had he spoken when a young man, skinny as a beanpole, stood up and clenched his fist at Grandmaster Xu.
"Seeking death!" Grandmaster Xu roared in anger. He was the top expert, and yet these juniors scorned him. If he didn't strike them down, who would still call him Grandmaster?
He clenched his fist with such force that a violent wind seemed to whip up around him, even puffing up his sleeves, and with a furious shout, he swung his fist forward with great might.
Boom, as if a typhoon had arisen, the furniture in the room was blown into disarray, and the people present could barely stand steady, crouching on the ground, exclaiming in alarm: "My heavens, this punch is too terrifying, has that skinny beanpole been pounded into mincemeat?"
Turning their heads to look, their pupils shrank in disbelief, exclaiming loudly, "This, how is this possible?"
In front of them stood Ye Shijiu, completely unscathed. He nonchalantly patted his clothes and laughed: "Is that all the strength you have? You don't even have the qualification to make me step back!"

To withstand Grandmaster Xu's fearsome punch and emerge without a scratch, not even leaving a mark on his clothing—that was nothing short of a miracle!
Grandmaster Xu's complexion changed, and in a fit of disbelief, he swung his fist again and again. Eighteen punches he delivered, one after another, until he was gasping for breath, yet Ye Shijiu remained unmoved, looking at the Grandmaster before him as if nothing had happened.
"No, it's impossible. To withstand my eighteen punches, not even a true Grandmaster could do so. Who exactly are you people?" Grandmaster Xu's voice shook, his tongue beginning to tremble.
He felt a chill of fear. If a mere subordinate of Ye Ling had strength far surpassing his, was Ye Ling's own strength already at the level of a Martial King?
In the entire Dragon Country, there were only four Kings. If he was indeed a Martial King, then could his identity be the Northern Liao King?
As this realization dawned, his blood seemed to freeze, and he gritted his teeth, kneeling on the ground, bowing rapidly to Ye Ling: "My lord, I was ignorant and offended you, please spare my life!"
"Oh, you know my identity." Ye Ling glanced at him and said coldly, "Since you know who I am, you should be aware of the consequences of offending me, shouldn't you?"
"I…" Grandmaster Xu's face turned ashen. With a hardened resolve, he delivered a heavy punch to his own knee.
With a crack, his kneecap shattered, but Grandmaster Xu dared not scream, biting his tongue as he bowed: "My lord, my crimes are unforgivable. If you still aren't satisfied, I'm willing to break another leg!"
"Enough, I'll spare your life this time," Ye Ling waved his hand, and Grandmaster Xu quickly bowed his head, rising to his feet while dragging his broken leg.
"Grandmaster Xu, you have the Ba Hall backing you, even the Viceroy can't touch you. Are you really so afraid of this brat?" Yun Tianming didn't understand and stepped forward resentfully.
"Ha, the Ba Hall?" Grandmaster Xu sneered with a twisted mouth. "If the Ba Hall dares to lay a finger on Young Master Ye, it would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, a sure way to seek death. I've decided, I'm leaving the Ba Hall right now, and I won't be involved in this mess any longer!"
"No, it's impossible. The Ba Hall is the number-one martial arts power, and the Hall Master is a Great Grandmaster. How could this youngster be more formidable than the Ba Hall?" Yun Tianming turned pale, his body starting to weaken.
His strongest supporter, Grandmaster Xu, had been defeated; even the Ba Hall was no match for Ye Ling. Were their Yun Family doomed?
He bit his tongue and said with a heavy voice: "Fine, you win this time, I'll return all properties of the Ye Family, and I'll give you an extra five billion as compensation. Are you satisfied now?"
"Family Head, but that's five billion! That's too cheap for that bastard Ye Ling!" the Yun family members looked pained and displeased, watching Ye Ling with envy.
The others present also showed looks of envy, five billion in cash was not something many could produce at will. With this, he had become one of the top five wealthiest people overnight—this kid struck gold!
Looking at everyone's eyes filled with envy and jealousy, Ye Ling's gaze flickered with contempt as he mocked Yun Tianming: "Didn't you understand, Yun Tianming? I came here with the intent to have your entire family sent to prison, to seek vengeance for my Ye Family."
"Ye Ling, don't be too greedy. You think you're something special because you can fight? I'll send you to eat lead soon enough!" Yun Tianming shouted angrily, his eyes growing fierce.
He had always been reluctant to call on his official connections for fear of arousing the wariness of his superiors. Little did he know Ye Ling would be so reckless. If so, he wouldn't hesitate to play hardball.
He motioned to his assistant: "Contact my elder and second brothers immediately, have them send people to arrest this bastard Ye Ling. I want his head on the ground!"
The assistant was about to get up when a stern shout came from outside: "No need, they've been arrested for corruption."
"Impossible. My elder and second brothers have such high authority; their position in the officialdom is second only to a few senior officers, who would dare to arrest them!" Yun Tianming shouted angrily, stepping forward to seize the newcomer, but his face suddenly turned pale; with a thud, he collapsed to the ground.
Outside the door, two figures stood side by side.
Six Doors Inspector He Junsheng and Officer Liu Wenxiong.
And behind them, the Yun Family elder Yun Tianhai and the second brother Yun Tianyue, both cuffed at hands and feet, lay on the ground like dead dogs.
"No, elder brother, second brother, even you have been arrested, is the Yun Family truly doomed?" Yun Tianming's face turned pale as he lay on the ground, weeping.
The Yun family members were in despair, kneeling in front of Ye Ling, pleading: "Young Master Ye, please spare us, all the wrongdoing was committed by Yun Tianming and his son, it has nothing to do with us!"
