Chapter 39: Good Job Cutting

After getting closer to Ye Zhen, Ye Xuan’s body slightly flashed, avoiding Ye Zhen’s attack. Then, the kitchen knife in his hand directly chopped onto Ye Zhen’s wrist.

This was no ordinary kitchen knife, but a super kitchen knife made from Mount Tai cold iron, tempered to be as sharp as a razor, with terrifying attack power.

Ye Zhen’s Heart of the Earth focused on strength rather than defense, and its development was extremely low. Coupled with Ye Xuan’s own strength, the result was devastating.

With this one chop, Ye Zhen’s palm was completely separated from his wrist and fell to the ground.

Because there were still some nerves and life in the palm, it twitched a few times after falling to the ground before becoming still.

In extreme pain, Ye Zhen let out a miserable scream and fiercely smashed towards Ye Xuan with his left hand.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan instinctively blocked with the knife, and Ye Zhen’s left arm came into intimate contact with Ye Xuan’s kitchen knife.

Ye Zhen’s arm was directly cut open with a deep wound visible to the bone, with flesh and blood torn apart, meridians severed, and bones sliced open.

With both arms injured, Ye Zhen was in excruciating pain, wailing, “My hand… my hand…”

Ye Xuan looked at Ye Zhen on the ground and said, “Dad, call 120!”

Ye Chengzong looked at Ye Zhen rolling on the ground, stunned, before saying, “Okay, I’ll call 120.”

Ye Xuan knew very well that Ye Zhen was completely disabled. Even if his right hand was reattached, it would be very inflexible with current medical technology. As for his left arm, the meridians were severed, rendering it half useless.

Ye Zhen’s ability was the Heart of the Earth, which mainly focused on attaching the power of the earth to his body, giving him immense destructive power, mainly manifested in physical attacks.

Now, with both hands, one completely disabled and the other half disabled, he had lost almost half of his combat ability. His originally A-class Heart of the Earth might not even be worth a B-class ability anymore.

Furthermore, coupled with his previous words belittling ordinary people, once these words were made public, Ye Zhen would face social death.

Facing the attack of public opinion and his own disability, an A-class Awakener would no longer pose any threat to the Ye family!

This was Ye Xuan’s plan. The reason he didn’t deal with Ye Zhen earlier was to wait for this day and directly disable this guy.

At the same time, he wanted Ye Tao, that old bastard, to experience true cruelty!

Ye Chengzong called 120, while Ye Xuan called 110. Soon, the police and ambulance arrived together.

The doctors in the ambulance were also shocked when they saw this scene. They had seen fights and brawls before, but something like this, where a whole hand was separated from the body, was very rare.

Then, the doctors hurriedly lifted Ye Zhen and his severed hand onto a stretcher and rushed them to the hospital.

Because Ye Chengzong didn’t mention that the victim’s hand had been cut off when he made the call, there were no ice packs prepared in the ambulance.

Therefore, the severed hand couldn’t be preserved at a low temperature and taken to the hospital. By the time it arrived at the hospital, it was uncertain whether the severed hand still had any vitality and could be reattached.

Of course, with current medical technology, even if it was reattached, the severed hand would lose most of its functionality…

The police arrived slightly later than the ambulance. The person who came was Zheng Yi, the police officer who had been saved by Ye Xuan before. He looked at the bloodstains on the ground and asked, “What happened? Where is the person?”

Ye Xuan explained, “The person has already been taken away by the ambulance.”

Zheng Yi’s face changed slightly and said, “Is the person seriously injured? If you really hurt someone, even if you’re my benefactor, you still have to come back for investigation.”

Ye Xuan slowly said, “I chopped off one of his hands. It shouldn’t be considered light.”

Zheng Yi frowned and said, “That serious? What was the cause? Ye Xuan, you might be in trouble this time.”

Ye Xuan, however, was not worried. He said, “There is a dashcam in the car. We’ll know the details when we bring it back and watch the video. All I can say is that I have a clear conscience.”

“Alright, I hope what you said is true.”

Afterwards, Ye Xuan’s family got into the police car and went to the police station for questioning.

Zheng Yi was still in charge of the interrogation. Outside the interrogation room, Wei Lan also looked worried, afraid that Ye Xuan had really done something wrong.

During this period of time, Wei Lan had a very good impression of Ye Xuan. Not only did he help the Jiangcheng police avoid many casualties, but his character was also good, and he got along well with her son.

Wei Lan saw Ye Xuan as her own nephew and naturally didn’t want him to go astray, let alone go to jail.

However, in the face of the law, everyone was equal. If Ye Xuan really committed a crime, Wei Lan would never cover it up.

Zheng Yi looked at Ye Xuan and asked, “Ye Xuan, what was the cause of the incident?”

Ye Xuan said, “I think my words alone might not be convincing enough. The dashcam in the car was on at the time. Let’s play the video first.”

Zheng Yi nodded and then opened his laptop. He played the footage recorded by the dashcam on the screen in the interrogation room.

At the beginning, the car was driving normally. Then, they encountered Ye Zhen, who used his awakened ability to attack. The car was pushed back more than half a meter, and the footage was extremely shaky. The three people in the car were already injured to varying degrees.

After that, Ye Zhen said the quote about shoes and ants, arrogantly treating ordinary people as ants just because he awakened.

Then, Ye Xuan appeared and fought with Ye Zhen. Ye Zhen was indeed powerful, suppressing Ye Xuan with just one hand and pushing him back.

After that, Ye Xuan took out a knife from the car and rushed forward, giving Ye Zhen a slash. Ye Zhen’s hand was chopped off, and his arm was injured.

After that, Ye Xuan didn’t touch Ye Zhen again and immediately called 120 to have an ambulance take Ye Zhen for emergency treatment.

After watching this video, Zheng Yi coldly said, “Good job cutting! Do you think you can ignore the law just because you awakened some ability? This is simply what you deserve!”

Currently, there are only two groups of awakened individuals in large numbers: the military and this year’s middle school seniors. The total number of awakened individuals is still very low compared to the population of China.

In this situation, for a newly awakened person to treat ordinary people as ants and provoke them, only to be killed in return, isn’t it well-deserved?

Wei Lan looked at this scene, and her tightly furrowed brows slightly relaxed. “Nowadays, the country strongly advocates self-defense, giving ordinary people greater rights to defend themselves against criminals.

Although Ye Xuan used a knife, the other party was an awakened person who forcibly collided with a car. I don’t think using a knife was excessive. This incident can be seen as a typical case of self-defense.”

“Yes, that young man named Ye Zhen was really too much. He treated ordinary people as ants just because he awakened? The awakened spirit spheres they use were developed by a group of ants from the Chinese Academy of Sciences!”

The facts of this incident are clear, and the police’s attitude is unanimous. There is no suspense at all.
