Chapter 197 Because I Want To!
James had never imagined that he would fall at the hands of someone who seemed like a lowlife.
The feeling of fists pounding flesh made James want to completely pass out, but his strong spiritual power and extraordinary physique kept him very alert.
"Grizzly! Save me!" James yelled out in utter desperation as he saw someone approach, as if he had seen his savior.
Ye Ling instantly glared, smashing his fist into James's nose, "Dammit, you were whimpering just now, how come you're so alert all of a sudden? Shut up!"
With another punch, James truly wanted to curse; when had he ever suffered like this? Even in the global superpower community, he had a fearsome reputation.
Just then, several figures appeared in the hall like specters, with Shenfeng among them.
"Everyone, leave this place immediately," Shenfeng said sternly, his gaze sharp.
The onlookers who had been enjoying the show sensed the turn of events and quickly fled. In less than a minute, the spacious hall was left with only Shenfeng and the others, Han Qingxin, Mo Xing, Ye Ling, and two foreign superpower users.
"Don't you think it's rather inappropriate to run amok in our territory?" Shenfeng asked, his voice ice-cold.
Grizzly looked around indifferently at the few people, scoffing, "You Huaxia superpower users are too weak. I really have no interest in dealing with you."
"However, now, release James immediately. And this young man, I'm taking him with me to punish. Otherwise, where is the dignity of our superpower users?"
Shenfeng clenched his teeth, "It seems you don't want to leave alive!"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Whoosh, whoosh, as soon as Shenfeng finished speaking, the superpower users by his side all moved into position, surrounding Grizzly tightly and ready to strike at any moment.
Grizzly, facing several agents from the Bureau of Superpowers, did not show a hint of fear but appeared even more arrogant, "Are you trying to provoke a great war between the Eastern and Western superpower worlds?"
"Can you bear the responsibility for that?" Grizzly sneered, clenching his right fist, with streams of lightning wrapping around his fist, producing a terrifying crackling sound.
Shenfeng didn't respond, just looked more solemn. A great war between Eastern and Western superpower worlds was a prelude to global chaos, a responsibility no one could bear.
And at that moment, five figures slowly stepped into the hall, four men and one woman, all with formidable auras. As they entered the hall, everyone felt an oppressive might, as if dark clouds were engulfing the city, threatening to bring destruction.
"Honorable Saintess, Grizzly welcomes your arrival," Grizzly greeted, immediately bowing respectfully to the newcomers.
Ye Ling turned his head to look at the five people entering the hall, his gaze shifting slightly. The so-called Saintess's beauty was almost flawless.
Her eyes shimmered like emeralds, enchanting and captivating, her golden hair cascading down to her waist. Her perfect nine-head-length figure outlined her already voluptuous body, her rosy lips drawing the heartbeat of everyone present with their every movement.
"I think it's rather inappropriate for you to cause trouble on Huaxia's soil," the Saintess said in a cold voice, surprisingly fluent in the Huaxia language.
Grizzly shifted his gaze slightly, smiling, "Honorable Saintess, I think there's been a misunderstanding. James was heavily injured by this unreasonable Huaxia man, which greatly affects our next actions in Huaxia. That's why I intend to teach this ignorant fellow a lesson."
The Saintess did not speak, and the four foreigners standing beside her, muscular and bearing long spears, had a bit of a knightly air.
"Moreover, I believe that the Pope will greatly admire your decision, Honorable Saintess, if you do not involve yourself with the affairs of the Divine Punishment," Grizzly added.
After hearing this, the Saintess's expression darkened slightly, "Given your status, such words are a bit presumptuous."
Grizzly was taken aback. The Saintess's status was supreme, second only to the Pope, on an equal footing with the Vice Sect Hierarch of Divine Punishment. Indeed, he was not in a position to compare with the Saintess.
Just as Grizzly was about to speak again, Ye Ling's fist crashed into James' body, causing him to scream out in pain.
"I think you might be overlooking one issue, that this place belongs to our Huaxia country, are you being a little too overbearing as guests?" Ye Ling stood up and walked towards the grizzly.
Taken aback, the grizzly then burst into laughter, "Ignorant Huaxia boy, you will pay a painful price for your arrogance."
As he spoke, the aura around the grizzly suddenly changed, his arms slowly lifted into the air, and with a tip of his toes, he floated off the ground.
His previously ordinary eyes were suddenly filled with streaks of lightning, his golden hair moving on its own, full of momentum.
"Receive the punishment of the gods, I represent the Thunder God, bringing down sin upon you, lowly sinner!" As the grizzly spoke, a bolt of lightning shot out of his eyes, striking towards Ye Ling.
Boom, the lightning struck Ye Ling, raising plumes of white smoke, but Ye Ling's figure remained unshakably still, not even a hair out of place.
"Quit your goddamn charades, you old furball, I'll tear your bones apart!" Ye Ling vanished in an instant after finishing his words.
Feeling the danger, the grizzly quickly retreated, but before he managed to move away, Ye Ling's figure had already quietly appeared behind him.

"Thousand-Year Kill!" Ye Ling gritted his teeth, his fingers coming together as he fiercely jabbed towards that vulnerable spot on the human body.
With a howl, a miserable cry echoed through the hall, the Saintess's eyeballs almost popped out, what kind of underhanded and violent method was this?
At this moment, the grizzly was in so much pain that he did not want to live, howling in agony as Ye Ling moved again, suddenly lifting his leg.
"Groin Kick!" As the sound fell, only a 'pop' was heard as the grizzly's formidable body staggered, the lightning in his eyes vanished, and streaks of blood suddenly appeared.
"Ah!"
A scream rose, and the grizzly's body collapsed to the ground, convulsing uncontrollably, making everyone's heart skip a beat, instinctively clenching their legs together.
"Director, who the hell is this guy, this move is too vicious, isn't it?" A shivering member of the Bureau of Superpowers asked Shenfeng.
Shenfeng wiped the sweat from his forehead: "It's alright, a black cat or a white cat, as long as it catches mice, it's a good cat."
"You wanna play god? You damn false Thunder God!" As he spoke, Ye Ling punched the grizzly right in the eye socket.
Bang, bang, another punch smashed into the other eye socket of the grizzly, promptly giving rise to a set of panda eyes.
"James! Save me!" The grizzly bellowed; this guy was too brutal, the grizzly used his arms to try to crawl away from Ye Ling's devilish clutches.
Ye Ling sneered, "You, come here!"
Ye Ling pulled the grizzly's legs, dragging him over like a dead dog right next to him, then lifted his foot and stomped down hard.
Crack crack, several sharp sounds of bones breaking made people's scalp tingle.
The grizzly's eyeballs bulged out as he felt intense pain in his waist and went unconscious with his eyes rolling back.
"Why do you have to be so ruthless!" The Saintess asked with a frown.
Turning his head, Ye Ling looked indifferent: "Do you know why I wrote the 'Tao Te Ching'?"
The Saintess was taken aback, how could she know that?
"Because I damn well felt like it!" Ye Ling roared menacingly.
