No one would willingly kneel down to anyone for no reason, not even a subordinate would feel so obliged.
However, the burly man at this moment was indeed kneeling willingly.
Because he was unsure about what might happen if he didn't kneel.
"I admit my wrongdoing, don't hit me, don't hit me." The man who knelt started kowtowing to Ye Xiao, muttering, "Killing Wang Li was Xie Qiang's idea, not mine. I was just an accessory, I admit all of it. I was wrong. I'm willing to accept punishment, just don't hit me, don't hit me!"
Being hit?
How could this thug be afraid of being hit? The real fear is not of being attacked physically.
If it's a human striking them, they naturally wouldn't be too afraid. If fists could solve the problem, then it's not a problem at all. But now, what if faced with something their minds cannot comprehend? That's a different matter altogether.
So, the real fear for the burly man wasn't Ye Xiao, but 'Wang Li'!
