83: To Mr. Ye, my name is Ye Fan

"Wait, let me see the ring on your hand."

Ye Hong's calm voice rang out, and Jiang Wuxi's expression changed dramatically.

He didn't have time to resist.

The ancient storage ring was taken off by Ye Hong and played with in his palm.

"Tsk tsk."

After observing for a moment, Ye Hong looked at him with great interest.

"I didn't realize you had such a treasure as a storage ring?"

"......"

Jiang Wuxi opened his mouth, almost spitting out a mouthful of old blood.

This item was something he had fortunately obtained when he explored an ancient civilization ruin in his youth.

It was incredibly precious, with an internal space all its own.

Even many Grandmasters who founded Martial Halls did not possess one.

"Perfect, I need an ornament. I'll temporarily keep it for you. Grandmaster Jiang shouldn't have any objections, right?"

Ye Hong smiled faintly.

That gentle smile made Jiang Wuxi's face twitch slightly.

Yet, he couldn't utter a single 'no'.

He could only suppress his anger and force out a smile uglier than crying: "No, no."

"That's good then."

Ye Hong showed a satisfied look.

"It's your turn."

After dealing with Jiang Wuxi, Ye Hong shifted his gaze to Iron Life, who was tied up and kneeling on the ground on the other side.

Indeed, the treatment for a Grandmaster and a Great Martial Master was different.

At least a Grandmaster tied to a pillar wouldn't be forced to kneel.

"I, I, I..."

Iron Life watched Ye Hong approach step by step, his face turning pale with fear.

The terror of being blown apart by a single punch in the past.

Combined with Ye Hong's Divine Might today, and his terrifying combat power that swept away two Grandmasters.

It directly caused his psychological defense to collapse, and he begged for mercy: "Grandmaster Ye, no, Great Grandmaster Ye! I'll return that ten million, I'll return it right now!"

"Too late."

Ye Hong shook his head, "When you make a mistake, I let you off the first time. This second time, you'll have to pay with your life."

Iron Life's eyes suddenly widened. He was about to beg and try to salvage the situation.

A finger had already magnified in his vision.

"No—!"

He let out a desperate cry, and instantly, his voice abruptly stopped.

Pfft!

Hot blood splattered, and his forehead was easily pierced.

A look of terror froze on Iron Life's face.

He didn't even have time to utter a last word before his body stiffly fell down.

This scene terrified the remaining people of Hongcheng Martial Hall, making their faces turn pale.

Fortunately, Ye Hong merely glanced at them indifferently.

Then, the words he spoke sounded like heavenly music: "I'll give you two choices."

"Either surrender and voluntarily join Limit Martial Hall without any conditions, fulfilling related obligations, or—die!"

Clearly.

These were terms that even a beast wouldn't accept if thrown into the 21st century Earth.

Working for free!

But these people's eyes lit up.

It's better to live a wretched life than die a glorious one.

Even their General Head had been beaten into a dead dog, so what was there to think about?

"I'll join!"

"I'll join too!"

"Sir, actually, I've long yearned for Limit Martial Hall. This request is exactly what I've been hoping for!"

Immediately.

The remaining people from Hongcheng Martial Hall expressed their intentions one after another.

Their faces even showed expressions of relief after surviving a disaster, completely different from before.

"Tsk."

Ye Hong clicked his tongue.

He turned around and scanned the many Martial Artists of Limit Martial Hall.

His gaze finally settled on a woman at the forefront.

Hmm...

Busty, shapely, long legs, fair skin, beautiful face, slender waist.

Of course, that wasn't the main point.

She wore a gold medal on her chest, engraved with two bright moons.

An Intermediate Great Martial Master, considered the strongest combat power among the high-ranking members of Limit Martial Hall present.

"You, step forward."

Ye Hong pointed at her.

"Ah?"

He Xinyan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reacted.

A surge of excitement filled her heart, her imagination running wild.

She was quite confident in her own looks, coupled with the resolute temperament cultivated through martial arts.

Even several Great Martial Masters among her colleagues had expressed their feelings for her.

However, women are creatures who admire strength.

As a Great Martial Master herself, it only made sense to be with a Grandmaster.

As long as he wasn't the type who focused on external cultivation, making it easy to overpower a woman to death, it would be fine.

Hong Yuan, the General Head of Limit Martial Hall, would be acceptable, but it was rumored he had issues in that regard.

Now, being called out by Ye Hong, He Xinyan immediately had a few thoughts.

"What are Grandmaster Ye's orders? Your subordinate will do her best."

He Xinyan said, subtly pulling down her collar.

Through the professional suit, one could even see a magnificent hint of cleavage.

Unfortunately, Ye Hong was completely unmoved.

He merely said indifferently: "The work of incorporating these people is entrusted to you. Now, clear out a Cultivation room for me, I need it."

"Uh..."

He Xinyan felt a bit disappointed upon hearing this, but still nodded.

"Oh, right."

Ye Hong seemed to remember something and said: "The information I previously entered at the Martial Hall, you have a backup, right?"

"Later, according to my phone number, get me another phone and a matching SIM card."

"Yes, Grandmaster Ye."

He Xinyan nodded knowingly.

Beside her, the remaining three high-ranking members of Limit Martial Hall looked as if they wanted to speak but hesitated.

They seemed eager to curry favor but didn't know how to start.

Ye Hong couldn't help but find it a little amusing.

"Alright, we're all on the same side. Relax a bit. Someone come and show me the way."

"Whew!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the three Hall Masters all breathed a sigh of relief.

One of them quickly stepped forward, fawning: "Elder Ye, I'll escort you."

Immediately.

He led Ye Hong towards the nearest elevator, amidst the envious and resentful gazes of the others.

"Damn it, he got ahead of me!"

The other two cursed silently, stamping their feet and pounding their chests.

But very quickly.

They remembered Ye Hong's words just now, and their eyes lit up again.

On the same side!

These simple three words carried too much weight.

Limit Martial Hall previously only had Hong Yuan, an Intermediate Grandmaster.

Even with just him, Limit Martial Hall's status had squeezed into the top five among the major Martial Halls in Yunhai City.

But with Ye Hong's addition, not only were today's hidden dangers cleared.

With a little promotion.

The news that Limit Martial Hall gained a powerful Grandmaster would absolutely surpass its current influence by countless times.

What's more.

There was also Jiang Wuxi, who was intimidated by Ye Hong's Divine Might, essentially becoming three years of free labor.

This wave directly added two Grandmaster-level individuals!

"Hiss... Heaven-Defying! Heaven strengthens my Limit Martial Hall."

"Tsk tsk tsk, two of you, when the General Head returns, we must really fleece him."

"For such a joyous occasion, cultivation resources, salaries, holidays, it wouldn't be right not to celebrate universally!"

Their hearts surged, feeling as if their blood was about to burn.

He Xinyan giggled even more, perfectly embodying a woman's charming and intellectual allure.

...

At the same time.

Ye Hong had already arrived in a refined Cultivation room.

"Elder Ye, this is where General Head Hong usually goes into seclusion."

"Today, I'll take the liberty to make this decision. As long as you feel comfortable using it, that's what matters."

The guiding Hall Master said respectfully.

Ye Hong suspected that this attitude was even more respectful than how he treated his own father.

"Alright, what's your name?"

Ye Hong asked casually.

"Replying to Elder Ye, my name is Ye Fan. You can just call me Little Fan."

This Hall Master was usually a powerful figure in Limit Martial Hall who had the final say.

And he frequently ventured into the Wilderness Area, decisive in killing, and many Martial Artists would bow and scrape when they saw him.

However, at this moment, he was acting like an obedient baby.
