Chapter 1126 The Power of Gods
"Is that so?" Ye Fan''s smile deepened.
His smile did not waver as he stepped down the steps and slowly headed towards Xur He.
"What you''ve just said might have the power to send others falling to their knees, but they mean
nothing to me." Ye Fan''s condescendingugh reverberated in the air.
Xur He was furious.
"What a brazen and stubborn fool! How dare you speak so audaciously in your final moments!" Xur He
raised his hand and barked out an order to the warriors standing behind him. "Men, here are my
orders. This evil man hasmitted grievous crimes that include arson, injury to others, and robbery.
He has also murdered someone in public. He is beyond redemption. The people of Jiangdong have
suffered his evil deeds for too long. Today, I shall enact justice on behalf of the heavens and kill this evil
scoundrel. Men, I order you to shoot him down!"
Upon his orders, dozens of warriors raised their rifles, loaded their weapons and aimed.
Dozens of semi-automatic rifles were pointed at Ye Fan.
With their muzzles aimed at Ye Fan, these weapons were akin to death''s scythes that surrounded Ye
Fan and had him trapped.
"This is the end for you, punk. You had iting. It''s your fault for killing Shao-Hua and for offending
someone you should not have offended. You will pay for his death with your blood. You will be the
sacrifice that I''m going to offer to my nephew to appease his soul in heaven!"
A smile appeared on Xur He''s face. It was filled with smugness and satisfaction at finally having gotten
his vengeance.
He could imagine the blood that was going to flow before his eyes the next moment.
After all, even if this so-called Mr Chu had a head and limbs made of metal, he couldn''t possibly
survive an attack from a vast military force.
"Is this really the end? What a pity though. He''s still so young," sighed Wu Wei-Tao softly as he shook
his head and observed the scene unfold from afar.
His eyes were filled with sympathy andpassion as he stared at Ye Fan.
Dozens of soldiers fired their rifles and let loose a deafening series of shots.
Hundreds of bullets sped across the skies and pierced the air as they charged towards Ye Fan.
"Ye Fan!"
"Mr Chu!"
Countless screams sounded outside the Haiyuan Restaurant.
Qiu Mu-Cheng''s eyes had grown red with worry. She looked like she was on the verge of tears.
Chen Ao and the others had squeezed their eyes shut in fright.
They didn''t want to witness the sight of Ye Fan being riddled with bullets.
"Why? Why wouldn''t you listen? Mr Chu, you''re just a man. How can you win a fight against an entire
army?” Chen Ao''s heart spasmed painfully as he moaned to himself.
He expected to hear Ye Fan''s agonizing cries of pain the next moment.
He was surprised when he didn''t.
In fact, he didn''t hear the sound of Ye Fan''s body falling to the ground either.
The whole world seemed to havee to a standstill.
A sudden and extraordinary silence descended upon them.
Confused, Chen Ao opened his eyes to see what was going on.
Shock rippled through his body instantly.
His eyes widened.
Everyone else were equally shocked.
Shen Fei was gaping while Old Master Xia was staring with eyes as wide as saucers.
Li Er and the others appeared to have lost their ability to breathe.
Before them was Ye Fan, hovering in midair.
His feet hung in the skies while he floated in the heavens like a god who was descending from above
and onto Earth.
He had his hands folded behind his back and a mirthless smile on his face.
His eyes looked dark and unfathomable, the gaze they levelled upon this world was akin to one that
gods made when surveying the mortal domain.
What shocked them all was not Ye Fan''s ability to float in the air. The bullets that had been headed
straight for him a second ago had frozen in their tracks, inches before hitting him.
A seemingly invisible barrier stilled to stop them in their paths.
The bullets couldn''t advance a single inch.
"What...how is this possible?"
Xur He was blown away by the sight.
His enemy was hovering in mid-air, unafraid of the bullets that had been fired at him.
"Is he even human?”
Xur He''s face paled while tremors coursed through his body uncontrobly. He stared at Ye Fan as if
he were staring into the face of a demon.
The only time they had seen anyone float in mid-air had been when they had turned on the television.

Yet, now, they were seeing such a feat happening right before their eyes.
Everything that Xur He had known and believed about this world came copsing down all around him.
His world had just been turned topsy-turvy.
"General Xur, is this Mr Chu a deity of sorts?"
His vicemander was scared dumbstruck too.
His voice shook as he spoke.
In China, everyone from the supreme emperor to the lowly beggar, lived in fear of gods and demons.
Xur He would have peed in his pants if he hade alone and had witnessed Ye Fan''s miraculous feat
on his own.
But he had three thousand men at hismand.
His army boosted his courage and made him less afraid.
"But General, what if he turns out to be a god?"
"Shut your trap!” Xur He pped the man hard. "There is no such thing as gods. That''s pure
superstition. If you speak any more of that nonsense and spread fear in our men, I''ll have you shot and
executed on the spot!” Co?tent оf NovelDrama.Org
Fury had Xur He cursing his men out loud.
Upon his orders, his men disregarded their fear, lifted their rifles once more and aimed their weapons at
Ye Fan.
Tens of thousands of bullets flew towards Ye Fan, rushing towards him like a tsunami.
To the despair of Xur He and his men, no matter how many times they shot at the young man, he
remained unscathed.
They were akin to raindrops made of metal as they fell from the skies.
As the storm poured, Ye Fan remained hovering in the air.
He stood above them all calmly as if his feet were standing on firm ground.
His eyes were dark and the forbidding aura of authority and power exuded from his person. He was like
a god!
