Chapter: 5946

Ye Chen then stood up, walked around the crowd, and came to the back, looking at the unconscious skinny tall guy. He directly grabbed his hair, which was slightly curled, and dragged him in front of the crowd.

Next, Ye Chen tossed him onto the ground, letting him lie there like a dead dog without moving. Then, he turned to the remaining 10-15 people and said, "I just warned you all that if I count to three and anyone doesn't come to line up, this guy will be lying there motionless, not taking my words seriously. How can I lead this group in the future? Therefore, I'll make an example of him right now by breaking his leg, so you'll know that what I say, I mean!"

Everyone looked at each other in shock, thinking to themselves, "This guy is so unreasonable! He's blaming someone who's lying there motionless like a dead dog on us?"

Just then, Ye Chen raised his foot and stomped down hard on the skinny tall guy's right leg.

Snap!

The bone broke with a loud crack.

Immediately, that person woke up from his unconscious state, grabbed their broken leg, and rolled around on the ground, crying and wailing.

Everyone else was frozen in shock, unable to speak. Who could have predicted that Ye Chen wouldn't even spare someone who was already unconscious? He's clearly unconscious, so how can he possibly come to line up when I count to three? This isn't bullying an innocent person... oh no, this is just bullying!

Just as everyone was paralyzed with fear and unable to speak, a middle-aged white man in his 50s cautiously spoke up from the crowd: "You... you can't treat someone who's already unconscious like that. That's not fair!"

"Not fair?" Ye Chen replied calmly, "As the saying goes, a gentleman keeps his word, just as a horse cannot be caught once it has been let loose. I travel through the world, emphasizing integrity rather than fairness! If someone doesn't come to line up when I count to three, I'll break their leg without hesitation."

As he spoke, Ye Chen furrowed his brow and looked at him with curiosity, asking: "Older gentleman, what kind of divine being are you? Dare to speak up for someone at this time?"

The middle-aged white man took a deep breath and said: "I am a priest! I am God's servant! I speak for justice!"

Ye Chen laughed coldly: "Sorry, I'm an atheist, I don't believe in God."

"You...," the priest said nervously, "even if you don't believe in God, you can't blaspheme God!"

Ye Chen chuckled: "You're quite good at pinning labels on people. When did I ever blaspheme God? I just don't take his servants seriously."

As he spoke, Ye Chen walked up to him and looked straight into his eyes, asking: "Tell me the truth, when did you get here?"

The priest took a deep breath and stuttered: "Th...three years ago..."

Ye Chen nodded, then asked again: "And how long have you been living in this prison cell?"

The priest answered nervously: "Two...two years and three months..."

Ye Chen nodded again, pointed to the ground where Dean lay, and asked: "You've lived here for so long, you should have seen many of your fellow inmates being tortured. Did you speak up for them when they were being tortured?"

"Ah..." The priest suddenly couldn't speak up.

He wasn't actually talking about that skinny tall guy, nor was he genuinely seeking mercy or justice for him. He was simply aware that this prison cell had opened a new era, and when Ye Chen picked up Dean's mouthwash from the bathroom, it meant he had already ascended to become the new king here.

So, he wanted to deliberately use this sort of trickery to show off in front of Ye Chen, at the same time using this seemingly just behavior to convey something to Ye Chen: that he and Dean weren't on the same team. You can mess with them all you want, but please don't touch me.

Moreover, he believed that as someone acting out of justice and with the priest's backing, he had a big probability of not being targeted or punished by Ye Chen. This would allow him to secure his own safety in this new era and even gain the favor and trust of the new king.

But he never thought that his carefully planned move would be checkmated by Ye Chen in one stroke. JrNovels.com
