Ning Beichen ignored Huang Yinghai’s shouts. His fingers gradually tightened, and after a moment, a cracking sound came from Huang Haibo’s neck, like a shattered eggshell.
"How dare you!"
Huang Yinghai’s eyes were about to burst.
Ning Beichen released his hand, and Huang Haibo’s corpse fell. He looked at Huang Yinghai and said word by word.
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
"You—are—asking—for—death!"
Huang Yinghai watched his son die in Ning Beichen's hands. He became like an erupting volcano and attacked Ning Beichen with all his might.
Before, he dared not attack because his son was in Ning Beichen's hands. But now, his son was dead, right before his eyes. He never imagined that Ning Beichen would actually dare to kill his son.
As soon as Huang Yinghai attacked, Ning Beichen immediately judged that he was using the Qing Mu Jue of the Qing Ye Sect. It seemed that this Huang Yinghai was indeed connected to the Qing Ye Sect.
In fact, many ancient sects had their own businesses in the secular world. Ning Beichen knew this; it wasn't just the Qing Ye Sect.
At least Ning Beichen knew of many businesses related to ancient sects or secretly supported by them.
For example, a massive real estate company that occupied at least 30% of the Eastern Ancient Kingdom's market, several Fortune Global 500 industrial companies, and some security firms all had the backing of ancient sects.
Although ancient sects seemed to be silent and unknown in modern times, as if they had disappeared, and most people had dismissed them, it was important to remember that they had been passed down for hundreds, even thousands, of years. Some had even survived periods of war. The wealth and power they had accumulated were far beyond what ordinary people could imagine.
Ning Beichen let out a cold snort.
With a punch, he sent Huang Yinghai flying.
It wasn't that Huang Yinghai's cultivation was weak, but he was consumed by rage and underestimated Ning Beichen. Even with his Qing Mu Jue, he could only be beaten in front of Ning Beichen.
However, Ning Beichen knew that today's matter could likely not be resolved peacefully. He had no doubt that after killing Huang Haibo, even if Huang Yinghai were a more magnanimous person, he would not let it go.
If he hadn't killed Huang Haibo, with his own abilities, he might have had a chance to reconcile with Huang Yinghai, but now it was impossible.
"Kill him for me."
Huang Yinghai was almost choked to death by Ning Beichen's punch. The rage that attacked his heart had to be suppressed. He ordered the Qing Ye Sect experts hidden in the villa to attack Ning Beichen.
However, without a Grandmaster present, these people were no match for Ning Beichen; they were like food. No matter how skilled they were, Ning Beichen took them all down with just a few punches.
"Go back and get help from the Sect Master."
Seeing this, Huang Yinghai knew he was no match for Ning Beichen and quickly sent someone to the Qing Ye Sect for reinforcements.
Ning Beichen did not stop them from leaving.
Things had reached this point; he couldn't back down just because he wanted to. Rather than facing the Qing Ye Sect's retaliation later, it was better to resolve it all at once.
"Your son's death was his own doing. I don't believe you, his father, were unaware of what he did. Perhaps his actions even had your tacit approval or support."
Ning Beichen said, looking at Huang Yinghai, who had blood at the corner of his mouth.
"You killed my son; this enmity is irreconcilable. Even if you hide to the ends of the earth, I will not let you go."
Huang Yinghai said through gritted teeth, his eyes filled with malice as he glared at Ning Beichen.
"Don't you know why I killed your son? Your son courted his own death. Who can you blame for that?"
Ning Beichen ignored Huang Yinghai's gaze. He had seen many people like him. What good was hatred? Only the incompetent would be filled with resentment.
"I don't know what background you have, but you killed my son. I will kill your entire family, including the woman behind you."
Huang Yinghai gnashed his teeth and said word by word to Ning Beichen.
However, his words did not scare Ning Beichen; they scared Liu Yixin behind him.
"Ning Beichen, let's leave quickly. He's a rich man from West City. He won't let us go."
Liu Yixin tugged at Ning Beichen's clothes, saying fearfully.
"You killed my son, and you still want to leave West City? Dream on!"
Huang Yinghai now looked as if he didn't fear death and didn't worry about provoking Ning Beichen.
Ning Beichen patted the back of her hand, telling her to stay calm. Then, he looked at Huang Yinghai and said softly.
"Leave? Why should I leave?"
"Do you think I didn't stop them just now? Was it because I couldn't, or was it because I deliberately let them go to report?"
"You are so confident in keeping me here because of the Qing Ye Sect, right?"
Ning Beichen, too lazy to waste words, directly mentioned the Qing Ye Sect.
Huang Yinghai was startled when he heard the name Qing Ye Sect from Ning Beichen's mouth. He didn't expect this person to know about the Qing Ye Sect.
And he was so calm?
Did he not fear the Qing Ye Sect?
Or did he have an even greater background?
Huang Yinghai pondered for a moment but couldn't figure it out. However, he didn't believe Ning Beichen had any ability to contend with the Qing Ye Sect.
The Sect Master of the Qing Ye Sect was already at the Grandmaster level, which was an extraordinary existence in this era. Even if this young brat was capable, could he possibly contend with a Grandmaster?
In his surprise, Huang Yinghai chose to default.
Indeed, his backing was the Qing Ye Sect. As soon as the Qing Ye Sect arrived, this brat would be dead. There was no need to argue with him now.
His son was dead, and Huang Yinghai had no other sons. Even if it meant being shattered to pieces, he would avenge his son.
"Fine, I won't leave. I'll wait here for the Qing Ye Sect to come and settle the score."
Ning Beichen pulled Liu Yixin and sat down directly on a sofa, crossing his legs. He looked as if even if you drove him away, he wouldn't leave, which made Huang Yinghai feel uneasy.
Either this person had an extremely powerful background, so much so that he didn't fear the Qing Ye Sect.
Or this person was ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth and didn't take the Qing Ye Sect seriously.
Time slowly passed, and Ning Beichen indeed kept his word. He didn't leave and waited for the Qing Ye Sect to arrive.
However, he was not afraid, but Liu Yixin was terrified. She tried multiple times to get Ning Beichen to take her away, but Ning Beichen remained unmoved.
Liu Yixin didn't know about the Qing Ye Sect or the Mu Ye Sect, nor did she know how powerful they were.
She only knew that Huang Yinghai was a rich man in West City. Although she resented Huang Yinghai deeply, she didn't have the courage to oppose him.
Moreover, Ning Beichen had killed Huang Haibo for her, which also made her tremble with fear, worrying that Ning Beichen would be arrested.
After all, in the Eastern Ancient Kingdom, the law was unsparing. Killing someone meant going to jail, regardless of whether the person was good or bad.
