41: Just an ant, kill it with one palm
She looked around again but found nothing. Just as she was feeling a little disappointed, a man with a refined Face walked out from the crowd.
The disappointment on Ye Liting's Face instantly turned into ecstasy, and she walked towards Ye Kong without hesitation.
She hugged Ye Kong in front of everyone.
"What the heck! What's going on? The Ye Family Princess actually hugged a young punk!"
"Am I seeing things?!"
"My heart is broken, my goddess has found her beloved!"
"Who exactly is this guy? To actually win the goddess's favor!"
The entire venue was in an uproar.
Ye Liting slowly said, "Kong Ge, I thought you wouldn't come."
"How could I not attend your birthday banquet?"
Ye Kong gently stroked Ye Liting's hair.
On the other side.
Wang Xiaojie had been enjoying the shock of the people around him, but now he was dumbfounded.
Damn it!
Who is this person?
Ye Liting actually threw herself into his arms; this was truly unexpected for him.
Wang Xiaojie's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"So bitter! The goddess is hugging someone else!"
"So heartbreaking!"
"So envious!"
Ye Liting and Ye Kong embracing immediately caused a stir, and many people showed expressions of jealousy.
After all, they were all Young Masters from various Families.
They had tried to curry favor with Ye Liting more than once, but she didn't even put them in her eyes, not even bothering to glance at them.
But now... in their eyes, the high and mighty goddess Ye Liting was actually embracing a man in front of everyone.
How could this not make them jealous?
If looks could kill, Ye Kong would have died long ago.
Their gazes towards Ye Kong were a mix of envy and jealousy.
They desperately wished that the person Ye Liting was hugging was themselves.
Li Xiaolu watched Ye Kong hugging Ye Liting, and a bitter feeling arose in her heart; she wished Ye Kong would hug her instead.
At this moment.
She hesitated a little.
She was wondering whether to tell her about Ye Kong's potential.
If she didn't say anything, Ye Liting would soon go to the capital.
At that time, she would be able to be with Ye Kong.
But then she thought again.
She and Ye Liting had been playing together for so many years.
For a moment, she was filled with mixed emotions.
"Who exactly is he?"
Suddenly, she was startled by a voice.
Beside Li Xiaolu stood a handsome young man.
This person was no ordinary individual; he was a Genius from Guangyang Prefecture, and like Ye Hefan, he also possessed Earth-Grade talent.
"His name is Ye Kong, and he and Ye Liting grew up together since childhood."
Li Xiaolu sighed.
"Is that so?"
Zhang Chengliang looked at Ye Kong with some jealousy.
What was the purpose of his visit?
Because they knew that the Ye Family was a major Family in the capital.
So, he was sent out, hoping to see if he could win Ye Liting's heart.
But before he could even speak, Ye Liting was embraced by a man.
How could this not make him jealous?
...Everyone's gaze fell on Ye Kong and Ye Liting.
These Family Disciples were all very curious.
Who exactly was this guy?
Born into what Family?
He actually gained Ye Liting's favor!
"Who knows who he is?" a noble Disciple asked the person next to him.
"I don't know, I've never heard of him."
"I don't know either, maybe he's from another Family, but we all know the people from Jinan City."
"That's true, I think so too."
"Wait, I seem to have seen this person somewhere."
Just then, a Disciple from the Zhao Family spoke up.
Everyone's attention focused on him. The thin young man from the Zhao Family was currently scrutinizing Ye Kong.
Then he said with certainty.
"He is Ye Kong, an ordinary person with no background whatsoever."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was greatly surprised, with expressions of disbelief on their Faces.
"Zhao Wu, you didn't see wrong, did you? How could the person Ye Liting fancies have no background?"
At this moment, a man spoke up.
"No way, he and I are from the same academy. He's a year older than me, but I've met him a few times.
I can assure you, that Ye Kong has no background whatsoever, he's just a poor guy."
Zhao Wu swore to everyone, even threatening to make an oath.
This time, everyone believed it.
Zhang Chengliang was also shocked.
He didn't expect such a thing to happen.
How could Ye Liting fancy such an ordinary person?
"Li Xiaolu, are you saying it's true? This Ye Kong is not from any major Family at all."
Zhang Chengliang looked at Li Xiaolu and asked.
Li Xiaolu just sneered, saying nothing.
Why would Ye Kong need a backer?
He himself was a person of great origin... On the other side.
The shocked expressions on the Faces of those Family Disciples also disappeared.
"Wang Xiaojie, you've lost so much Face, haven't you? You're not even as good as a poor guy."
At this moment, a rather handsome man walked over.
"Haha, Tang Wushuang, you weren't chosen either, what right do you have to mock me?"
Wang Xiaojie retorted.
"Is that so?"
"I just wasn't willing. If I were willing, Miss Ye would definitely not refuse."
Tang Wushuang sneered, his gaze falling on Ye Kong.
"Kid, you're a poor guy, hurry up and get out of here. How could a Young Miss like Ye Liting be someone you're worthy of?"
Tang Wushuang walked up to Ye Kong.
Ye Liting was the first to hear this and immediately felt uncomfortable, about to erupt.
"Don't worry, Liting, he's just a clown jumping around."
Ye Kong stopped her, looking at Tang Wushuang as if he were looking at an ant.
Under such a gaze, Tang Wushuang couldn't stand it anymore.
As a dignified Young Master of a Family, when had he ever received such treatment?
"Kid, you're actually staring at me with such a look, do you have a death wish? If you kneel before me now, I can spare your life for Miss Ye's sake, otherwise!"
Tang Wushuang quickly walked up to Ye Kong, glaring at him fiercely.
"What are you?"
A hint of disdain flashed in Ye Kong's eyes.
"You're seeking death."
Tang Wushuang was enraged, drawing the precious sword from his waist and slashing fiercely at Ye Kong.
The others, seeing this, shook their heads, some even with smiles on their Faces.
They could almost imagine Ye Kong dying in Tang Wushuang's hands.
Ye Liting stood beside Ye Kong, looking at him with a worried expression.
"Don't worry."
Ye Kong pulled her close, a smile on his Face.
The next moment, a terrifying Qi erupted from around Ye Kong.
Everyone felt this Qi, and their hearts trembled.
Tang Wushuang also looked terrified.
But before he could retract his sword, he was sent flying by Ye Kong's palm.
In an instant, a gigantic lightning palm, dozens of feet long, carrying an incomparably terrifying power, emerged from the void.
