chapter 4 Die as a dog for the Zhao family

The guardians who had attained the pinnacle of the Grandmaster Realm were the linchpin for the Zhao family's establishment in Jadeborough. A look of pride graced Chloe Zhao's furious countenance.
"This remnant of the Ye family is finished!"
"You, young man, are a Grandmaster Realm, aren't you?"
"How dare you come here and behave wildly as if we don't exist?"
The guardians on both sides issued cold threats. Two against one, there was no suspense about the outcome.
"Oh! You're seeking death."
Lambert Ye sneered disdainfully. Were they referring to him as a mere master? If their discernment was lacking, they still didn't comprehend the vastness of the sky!
"Go to hell!"
The guardians on both sides lunged into action simultaneously. Once launched, it was a lethal assault.
Lambert Ye stood there, his expression unwavering. There seemed to be no intention of taking action.
"Give up the resistance? Then meet your demise!"
The guardians on both sides lunged forward, employing lethal techniques.
"Two lackeys of the Zhao family, meet your end!"
Lambert Ye used both fists to confront the two guardians head-on. No, the other party wasn't even worthy of engaging in a direct battle. This was pure destruction.
Boom!
The guardians on both sides were sent flying before they could even touch Lambert Ye's form. Muscles and bones shattered. They fell to the ground, twitched twice, and perished immediately.
Witnessing this scene, the hall fell into complete silence. A Grandmaster Realm powerhouse could be dispatched so effortlessly. Was this young man's strength surpassing that of the Grandmaster Realm?
"No, this is impossible!"
Chloe Zhao was dumbfounded. How could the guardians on both sides of the Grandmaster Realm be trounced?
Just when she was shocked, Lambert Ye had already dashed and appeared before her.
"You, what are you planning?"
"Stay out of my way, young lady, and keep your distance!"
Chloe Zhao was so frightened that she scrambled and retreated to the ground. Her injuries hindered her escape. The evil aura from the man before her filled her with fear from the depths of her soul.
"Nothing! I'll end you."
Lambert Ye's eyes were cold. He extended his hand.
An invisible force clamped around Chloe Zhao's neck and hoisted her up. Lambert Ye did not want to touch this woman's body with his hands. Too repulsive!
"Ahem...help..."
Chloe Zhao, suspended in mid-air, reached out and clutched her throat in panic, attempting to pry away the invisible grip. But being only at the second level of the Innate Realm, she lacked the power to retaliate. The suffocation-induced fear of impending death made her entire body tremble.
Soon, an indescribable liquid soaked her skirt and trickled down her legs to the ground.
The spectators erupted into an uproar at this sight. The glamorous eldest daughter of the Zhao family was now so terrified that she had publicly urinated!
The onlookers were now more convinced that Lambert Ye could manipulate his authentic energy and retrieve objects from the air. There was no doubt he must be an expert surpassing the Grandmaster Realm!
"Help! I beseech all the major families to save me. The Zhao family will definitely reward you generously!"
Chloe Zhao no longer cared about her embarrassment. Her survival instinct drove her to seek help from other family members desperately.
At this moment, the Zhao family's bodyguards and two guardians were all deceased, leaving her without any more thugs to command.
As this plea left her lips, the audience broke into a murmur.
The Zhao family was already a first-class entity in Jadeborough and would ascend to become the dominant force. Aligning with them could bring substantial benefits to other families.
In the face of such enticing incentives, some were willing to risk their lives.
"Your surname is Ye; our Qian family holds a grudge against you!"
"Release Miss Zhao immediately!"
"Or else, prepare for the Qian family's wrath!"
An older man stood up, the patriarch of the Qian family. The Qian family held a distinguished position in Jadeborough.
Behind him stood two individuals donning masks—the Qian family's guardians are also at the Grandmaster Realm.
"That's right! Why should we tolerate your arrogance here?"
"Would our Li family fear you?"
Another man stepped forward, the head of the Li family, a first-class establishment. He, too, was accompanied by two Grandmaster-level guards.
"And our Zhou family!"
"Jadeborough isn't yours to incite trouble, you Ye family remnant!"
The head of the Zhou family also advanced with two Grandmaster Realm experts. Together with the Zhao family, they comprised the four prominent families of Jadeborough, controlling the city's vast wealth and wielding absolute authority.
How could they tolerate a brazen junior challenging their dominion?
"The Wu family will join the cause!"
"The Zheng family, too..."
Subsequently, second-tier families in Jadeborough and even third-tier families came forward to support the Zhao family.
A swift count revealed over ten families. They believed that, with their combined might, dealing with this kid would be easy.
They had to intervene and gain the favor of the Zhao family. A second-tier family could muster experts at the Grandmaster Realm, while third-tier families could only summon ordinary contenders from the Innate Realm.
Twenty or thirty contenders assembled in the blink of an eye, prepared to face Lambert Ye.
However, there were still some families who remained lucid and refrained from aligning with the Zhao family. These were the prudent ones.
"Haha! As soon as you show up, everyone wants to kill you!"
"You're finished; release me at once!"
Chloe Zhao immediately grinned in arrogance.
So many people effortlessly annihilating this remnant of the Ye family!
"Ha! You all have quite the courage."
"Haven't you thought about stepping forward to meet your end?"
Lambert Ye snorted disdainfully.
He didn't regard this group of people at all.
As many as they come, conspiring with the Zhao family, none will die unjustly!
"You arrogant brat, you underestimate us!"
"Everyone, attack together, kill this kid!"
The head of the Qian family sneered and ordered.
Other families that stepped forward responded one after another.
A group of experts immediately surrounded him.
"You wretch, I'll let you live a few more seconds to witness the fate of these people!"
With a casual flick, Lambert Ye tossed Chloe Zhao aside.
He leaped forward, calmly confronting over thirty experts.
Kill him!"
"Slice him into pieces, chop him into meat paste!"
"Whoever takes this kid's head, there will be a hefty reward!"
Chloe Zhao, now fallen on the ground, screamed ferociously.
