819: Chapter 819 My Lord, have mercy!

Everyone was stunned.

Good grief!

Isn't this clearly trying to go against the people from The Association?

At this moment.

The faces of the people from The Association all changed drastically in unison.

The Cat-man Leader was the first to react.

He laughed excitedly: "Good! Good! I agree! Let's do it just as you said!"

He wasn't afraid at all of having a fight with Irene's group.

The earlier skirmish had already proven...

Those people from The Association were simply no match for him.

As long as he won, and Ye Chen stood by and watched, they could still retreat with their subordinates unscathed.

As for Ye Chen wanting to catch him afterward to retrieve the gold?

He didn't believe for a second that Ye Chen could catch them!

After all...

The Cat-men's running speed was truly unparalleled!

"Are you crazy?!"

Irene's face turned livid. "He's playing you! You actually believe him?"

The Cat-man Leader couldn't be bothered to pay attention to her and gave a cold laugh.

"Woman, stop talking nonsense."

"Didn't you want to catch me? Come on, I'm right here!"

Max's face changed drastically.

He knew...

If they continued to let things go on like this, they would all die!

And once they died, the Cat-men would continue to roam free!

This...

was not something The Association wanted to see.

For a moment.

He hurriedly looked toward Ye Chen.

"Mr. Ye! Do not trade with him! That gold is dirty; The Association can offer double the reward!"

"As long as you step in to help!"

"I know..."

"Irene's attitude was bad, and I apologize to you on her behalf!"

"It is we who failed to recognize a master!"

"But that group of Cat-men has been roaming Europe for a full four months and killed over a dozen civilians. If we let them run away today, who knows how many more people will die in the next city!"

He paused, then suddenly bowed deeply to Ye Chen: "I implore you to act! The Association will definitely reward you handsomely!"

The other few Ability User behind him also followed suit and bowed.

"We implore Mr. Ye to act!"

"Please help us!"

"Our director lost her head from anxiety; please don't hold it against her!"

...

Watching this scene!

Hearing these words!

Irene felt as if she were being roasted on a fire.

Her face was livid, and she wanted to stubbornly retort.

But seeing her own team members bowing one by one to apologize, she ultimately didn't throw the "punch"...

Ye Chen glanced at Max and said indifferently: "If you had been this polite earlier, would you have suffered so many injuries?"

Max gave a bitter smile.

"It was our ignorance."

Ye Chen asked again: "You said The Association has a handsome reward; what is it?"

Max didn't hesitate.

"As long as Mr. Ye speaks, all resources within The Association's capabilities can be mobilized!"

"Alright, I'll trust you once."

Ye Chen clapped his hands and stood up from the stone bench.

As he stood up, the atmosphere of the entire plaza changed abruptly.

The lazy feeling from just a moment ago vanished instantly.

It was replaced by a sense of oppression.

It wasn't killing intent, nor was it pressure.

It was the feeling of an explosion; even the light of the bonfire was almost extinguished by the pressure.

Seeing this, the Cat-man Leader's face changed drastically: "Human, what... what do you mean?"

"What do I mean?"

Ye Chen stretched.

"It means that I am a human, and since they have apologized, naturally I must help humans."

"As for the price you offered, one kilogram of gold, it does sound tempting."

"But as you also said, that gold was all stolen by you. So if I catch you and go find the gold myself, isn't it the same?"

The Cat-man Leader's face twitched twice: "Are you playing me?!"

"I wouldn't call it playing you."

Ye Chen stepped toward him, "It's just that they offered way too much."

The Cat-man Leader's face turned completely black.

"Do you know who you are going against?"

"We are of the Shadow Cat clan. If you kill my clansmen, the entire Shadow Cat clan will not let you off!"

Ye Chen didn't stop his steps: "I have a bad habit: the more someone threatens me, the more I want to see just how well they can fight."

The Cat-man Leader stopped talking nonsense and instead tilted his head back, letting out a hiss.

The next second.

He catapulted himself into the air, his cat claws wrapped in blood-colored true energy, swiping toward Ye Chen's face.

He was very clear...

The young man in front of him wasn't joking; if he didn't go all out now, he would really fall here today.

Ye Chen looked at the incoming person, smiled, raised his hand, and pressed toward the claw tips of the Cat-man Leader.

"Snap."

A crisp sound.

The Cat-man Leader's claws stopped in mid-air, less than three inches from Ye Chen's face, but they couldn't move forward even an inch.

Because...

Ye Chen's fingers were already locked onto his wrist.

So much so that.

It felt as if it had been welded there, unable to move!

Ye Chen said indifferently.

"If you had chosen to run earlier, there might have still been time."

"But now it's too late."

The Cat-man Leader's pupils constricted, all his fur stood on end, and he smashed his left claw toward Ye Chen's face, attempting to force him to let go and escape.

But Ye Chen just flicked his wrist.

The next second.

A massive force poured through his palm into the Cat-man Leader's meridians, instantly paralyzing his entire left arm so he couldn't lift it.

"You... what did you do to me?!" The Cat-man Leader was shocked and furious.

"Nothing, just making you behave."

"And then..."

"Letting you experience what it's like to be a 'cat hammer'."

Ye Chen grinned, then exerted force with his hand, swung the Cat-man Leader like a giant sledgehammer, and smashed him onto the ground on the other side.

Boom!!!

The stone tiles of the plaza instantly shattered, and spiderweb-like cracks spread in all directions.

Dust splattered everywhere, and gravel flew about!

But Ye Chen didn't stop.

He pulled back, yanking the Cat-man Leader out of the hole.

Then.

He swung him again, smashing him toward the barbecue stand on the left.

Bang!!!

The iron stall frame caved in on the spot, and charcoal fire and iron skewers flew all over the sky.

The third time, he smashed him toward the pile of sound equipment at the edge of the stage.

The fourth time, he smashed him toward an overturned motorcycle.

The fifth time!

The sixth time!

The seventh time...

In Ye Chen's hands, the Cat-man Leader was like a toy, being pulled and flung around at will.

Each strike caused his bones to dislocate.

Everyone in the plaza was dumbfounded.

They never imagined...

The Cat-man Leader, whom they had struggled so hard to fight even when united, was actually like trash in Ye Chen's hands, offering zero resistance!

Is this, goddamn it, the gap???

Yan Qingwu dropped the meat skewer in her hand, laughing helplessly: "Why trade with anyone else? Why trade with this black-bellied demon king Ye Chen? Isn't that just asking for death?"

When the dozen-plus-th strike landed...

Ye Chen finally stopped swinging.

And the Cat-man Leader was in a particularly miserable state.

His body slid from Ye Chen's hand like mush.

His limbs were twisted.

Seven or eight of his ribs were broken.

Not only that...

Even his jaw was dislocated, causing half his face to swell up like dough.

He looked as if not a single bone in his body was intact.

If not for the rise and fall of his chest, everyone would have thought he had been swung to death...

Miserable!

Too miserable!

Ye Chen brushed the dust off his hands and cast his gaze toward the other few Cat-men.

"I'll give you one chance."

"Kneel and surrender."

"Otherwise..."

He glanced at the Cat-man Leader, "He is your example."

As soon as the words fell.

"Bang!"

The first Cat-man landed on both knees, no longer daring to stand.

Immediately after.

It was one after another kneeling down.

"We surrender!"

"Don't kill us!"

"Spare us, human boss!"

...

It wasn't that they had a weak backbone, but that they clearly realized...

If they continued, they would all die!

Rather than that, it was better to just kneel and beg for mercy.

That way...

At least they could still live!

Ye Chen couldn't be bothered to pay attention, and instead turned to look at Max.

"Alright, I've crippled the guy for you, and those who surrendered are kneeling here; leave the rest for you to handle."

Max finally came back to his senses and hurriedly bowed: "Thank you, Mr. Ye, for your help! The Association will remember this favor!"

Ye Chen waved his hand.

"No need to thank me, but I want that one ton of gold of theirs."

"As for filling the gap, figure out a way yourselves."

"If you want to swallow my things, you will regret it."

"Also, make sure the 'handsome reward' is delivered; I don't like empty promises."

Max nodded quickly: "Definitely, definitely!"

The few Ability User behind him immediately surrounded them and captured those Cat-men one by one.

The things they used to bind them were specially made and could be used to restrain strong individuals.

But only Irene remained standing in place.

Her face was very ugly, and black veins were already spreading from the wound on her left arm; the toxin was eroding her body.

Ye Chen turned back and glanced at her.

"That wound of yours, if you don't treat it soon, even the gods won't be able to help you."

Irene gritted her teeth: "I... I know."

"If you know, why aren't you getting medicine?"

"I..."

"What 'I' what? I already gave the prescription at the airport this afternoon; the doctor on your team should remember it."

After Ye Chen finished speaking.

He couldn't be bothered to wait for her response and turned to walk toward Yan Qingwu.

"Let's go, back to sleep; we have to catch a boat tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Yan Qingwu wolfed down the remaining few skewers of seal meat on the table.

Then.

She stretched, revealing her lethal curves.

"Alrighty, job done."

The two of them then walked side by side toward the plaza exit.

Watching Ye Chen's back, Irene clenched her fists.

Dragon Countryman!

Don't get cocky!

One day, you will fall into my hands!
