The man holding the gun stared blankly at the youth in front of him, the force on his neck increasing, a suffocating sense of death filling every cell of his body.
The opponent's terrifying power far exceeded his imagination.
Absolute crushing superiority shattered all his pride.
"Your Excellency, please show mercy!"
At this moment, the woman in the black dress immediately spoke, pleading with Ye Ming.
"Show mercy!"
Ye Ming, still gripping the gun-wielding man's neck, looked at her. "Do you know, this is the second time I've shown you mercy?"
"The second time?"
The woman in the black dress naturally didn't understand the meaning of these words.
However, this did not prevent her from recognizing the situation.
"Thank you, Your Excellency!"
She cupped her fists and bowed, her attitude humble.
"Hmph!"
Ye Ming waved his hand casually, throwing the gun-wielding man back.
Seeing that Ye Ming had not killed him, the black-dressed woman secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, before she could fully relax, the next words from the opponent made her heart skip a beat again.
"Come here!"
Ye Ming looked at her indifferently, lost in thought.
"Your Excellency!"
Before the woman in the black dress could speak, the two elders behind her stepped forward, glaring at Ye Ming, their internal energy accumulating secretly.
They were ready to fight with all their might at any moment.
Seeing the two elders, Ye Ming's expression remained unchanged, and he said indifferently, "I will not give you a third chance to show mercy. Think carefully!"
Ye Ming's words instantly made the faces of the two elders turn ugly. They clenched their fists, and their cloudy eyes gradually became somber.
The opponent had completely ignored them as well.
"Your Excellency, we have no enmity, do we!"
At this moment, the man holding the feather fan also stepped forward, standing shoulder to shoulder with the two elders, emitting subtle energy fluctuations.
This was a move to make it a three-on-one.
He refused to believe that at such a young age, the opponent could truly stand against all of them alone.
"Good! As you wish!"
Ye Ming's expression finally changed. A sinister and charming smile appeared on his face, and his entire demeanor transformed at that instant.
He took a single step forward, and the space beneath his feet boomed and shattered, spreading forward incessantly.
Fierce spatial rifts, like dark serpents coiled around heaven and earth, bared their fangs, intent on devouring them.
"This..."
This display of power caused the complexions of the three opposite him to turn pale, and they recoiled sharply. If they fell into the spatial rifts, they would surely not survive.
"Your Excellency, please calm your anger!"
As the three frantically retreated, the woman in the black dress did not move. Instead, she stared directly at Ye Ming, a decisive look flashing in her beautiful eyes.
"Young Master! It's dangerous!"
At this moment, a spatial rift had already extended to the woman in the black dress. The cold aura emanating from the rift seemed capable of swallowing her in the next second.
Seeing this, the elders and others cried out in terror, their faces filled with despair.
Those were spatial rifts!
Once one fell into them, even a powerhouse in the Innate Realm couldn't escape, let alone the woman in the black dress, who was only at the Yuan Xin Realm.
At this very moment, the woman in the black dress, about to be swallowed by the rift, still stood her ground, her gaze fixed on Ye Ming, as if the threat of death before her was not worth her fear.
And just as the elders' side thought the woman in the black dress was about to be consumed by the spatial rift, everything suddenly stopped.
It did not continue to spread forward.
"You are quite bold!"
Ye Ming smiled as he looked at the woman in the black dress. With a wave of his hand, the terrifying rifts that pervaded space vanished without a trace.
"If Your Excellency had truly wanted to kill me, even if I had dodged just now, I would still have died!" The woman in the black dress also revealed a smile and said, "So, why should I waste my energy?"
This smile carried a hint of carefree spirit.
Of course!
This was assuming her delicate back wasn't currently drenched in cold sweat.
And the heart still trembling within her chest clearly indicated that her inner state was not as calm as she outwardly presented.
Facing death, how could one look at it so easily?
"Hahaha! As expected of someone who can awaken a Saint-tier Primordial Origin Power attribute, truly remarkable!" Ye Ming nodded, acknowledging the woman in the black dress's words.
At the same time, this also revealed one of her secrets.
Saint-tier Primordial Origin Power!
The woman in the black dress had actually awakened a Saint-tier Primordial Origin Power attribute, second only to the Divine tier.
Upon hearing Ye Ming's words, the woman in the black dress was also startled. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and her heart was filled with shock.
This secret was known only to her father and grandfather in the entire Heavenly Pavilion.
Yet now, this person, with just a single glance, had seen through her completely.
It was truly terrifying.
"Who exactly are you?"
She asked herself in her heart.
In the Outland, she had never heard of such a figure.
"Saint-tier?"
At this moment, the elders and others were bewildered upon hearing Ye Ming's words.
They knew that their young mistress had a special Primordial Origin Power attribute. However, they had never imagined that it had reached the quality of Saint-tier.
Such individuals were exceedingly rare throughout the entire Outland.
But after a moment's thought, they understood.
No matter how monstrous a genius was, it was only useful if they could grow to fruition.
There were countless cases of premature demise.
Appropriate concealment was a form of protection.
"How did Your Excellency see through it?"
The woman in the black dress suppressed her shock and asked.
"A secret!"
Ye Ming smiled slightly, not explaining much.
With his cultivation at the Celestial Realm, it was not strange that he could discern this.
However, even if he directly told them his cultivation realm, regardless of whether they believed him, Ye Ming would not reveal his full strength.
"Very well! It was my mistake for being presumptuous!"
The woman in the black dress smiled gracefully, displaying the gentle beauty of a woman for the first time. Even her words carried a hint of coyness.
Due to her Primordial Origin Power attribute, she could sense more information.
Therefore, gaining the favor of this suddenly appearing youth would be greatly beneficial.
"My name is Yan Youer, may I know your esteemed surname?"
After a brief exchange, Yan Youer had gained some understanding of the youth's temperament and changed her address from "Your Excellency" to "Young Master."
Ye Ming did not pay much attention to this. He merely looked at her deeply, his smile unwavering. "You may have heard my name!"
Ye Ming seemed to have no intention of hiding his identity.
At this moment, he was naturally not in his original appearance.
"Oh!"
Yan Youer appraised Ye Ming from head to toe and smiled, "Young Master, are you perhaps in disguise?"
Hearing her say this, Yan Youer's curiosity was piqued.
"Naturally!"
Ye Ming smiled, and his face began to transform. In a short while, a handsome countenance, completely different from before, was revealed in the air.
He wore an expression of confidence.
Yan Youer stared at this new face for a long time before saying somewhat unnaturally:
"Uh! Forgive my dull eyes, I don't know..."
"???" Ye Ming.
