Watching Ye Wushuang's hasty departure, the crowd trembled with fear. The nicknames "Ruthless" and "God of Slaughter" surfaced in their minds—he was truly as arrogant and domineering as his reputation suggested.
Ye Wushuang was unaware of the crowd's thoughts. He had acted this way for two reasons. The first was to make an example of someone.
These people saw him as nothing more than an inexperienced brat and showed him no respect. If he didn't resort to certain measures, he feared no one on Cyan Profound Peak would listen to him in the future.
And the measures he took had to be severe enough to be seared into their memories, a warning to all others.
The second reason was related to Ye Rou's capture. The man in black Yang Qing'er had mentioned was able to pinpoint Ye Rou's location and abduct her from the Cyan Profound Hall with ease. This suggested an intimate familiarity with Cyan Profound Peak; the culprit was most likely one of their own.
