Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At this moment, everyone was staring at the coffin.
Blood kept spurting out of the coffin, so they knew that Tang Ao was inside.
Who would have thought that a grandmaster of that level would actually be defeated? Furthermore, he had lost to a young man who was only in his twenties!
What kind of monster was this Hunter?
Zhu Ya could no longer remain calm. Her gaze swept across the corpses, and finally fixed itself on the coffin. This kid had really done it!
He had eliminated five of Jiangnan Province’s strongest grandmasters by himself
Back then, when Bai Libing told her about Ye Chen, she had not paid much attention to it. After ail, what could a kid from a declining family really accomplish?
If Bai Libing had not repeatedly reminded her not to get on Ye Chen’s bad side, she would not have invited Ye Chen for coffee and chit-chat. When they conversed, she realized that he was cold and arrogant.
However, she now realized that he had the strength to back up that arrogance!
In Jiangnan Province, which expert could withstand Ye Chen’s sword strike and final palm attack?
No one!
“Miss, this Ye Chen…” Zhu Wentian suddenly spoke. Zhu Ya finally came back to her senses. Staring at Ye Chen’s figure, she made her decision.
“From now on, the Zhu family will supply this person with resources at all costs!
“When we return later, take out the material for the Xuan Shattering Sword from the secret chamber. Since Ye Chen needs it, we’ll give it to him without conditions!”
When Zhu Wentian heard that, his expression turned ugly.
“Young Miss, the material for the Xuan Shattering Sword is…”
She interrupted him, “Ye Chen’s value is higher than the sword, and even our ancestor who forged the sword!”
Zhu Wentian’s expression turned strange, but he did not say anything else.
At that moment, Ye Chen walked over to the coffin. He placed his hands behind his back and looked down at Tang Ao, who was lying in the coffin.
“Looks like I picked the right size for you.”
There was a hint of coldness in his gaze.
Although Tang Ao was furious, he was now no different from a crippled person.
“I have no enmity with you. Why did you kill my son and destroy everything I had?”
Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed.
“I killed Yuan Jingfu in the martial arts arena. You sent people after me, remember? I’ll kill anyone who threatens me. As for your son’s death, it’s just because 1 can’t stand what he did. Have you forgotten what happened three years ago?”
“Hell was calling for your son’s life, so 1 delivered it to them!”
“Oh right, before you die, let me tell you another secret. Ma Wei Qi is actually on my side!”
Hearing this, Tang Ao spat out another mouthful of blood. He had been dancing in the palm of Ye Chen’s hand all along!
However, Ma Wei Qi had always been loyal, why would he betray him?
“Looks like you’re not very comfortable lying down. I’ll help you.”
Ye Chen slapped the coffin with one hand, and the coffin stood upright, with Tang Ao’s crippled body facing everyone.
Today, half of the martial arts world in Jiangnan Province were present, so he did this to establish his might.
Then, Ye Chen took a step forward, and a dagger appeared in his hand.
“I said 1 would let you die last. Take your last look at the world!”
He placed the knife on Tang Ao’s neck.
Just as he was about to make a move…
Bang!
The door was blasted open, and a violent aura swept over!
More than ten men in special clothes rushed in!
“Stop!”
A thunderous voice rang out.
The leader of the group was a sage-like old man.
Ye Chen frowned.
Tang Ao’s reaction was completely different. He looked happy and quickly shouted, “Master! Save me!”
When the old man saw Tang Ao in the coffin, his expression changed. He quickly shouted at Ye Chen, “Brat, put down the dagger! The Martial Arts Department has the responsibility of dealing with all disputes in Huaxia’s martial arts world! Violators will be punished with death!”
Ye Chen’s eyes were indifferent. He did not put down the dagger, and simply asked, “Martial Arts Department? What’s that?”
The old man did not expect Ye Chen to have such an attitude. He rebuked T=Ye Chen angrily, “Kid, are you trying to challenge the Martial Arts Department?”
Zhu Ya quickly stepped forward and said to Ye Chen, “Ye Chen, put down your dagger. The Martial Arts Department holds the highest authority in Huaxia’s martial arts world. They’re responsible for dealing with crimes, meting out punishments, and managing the records of all of the martial arts experts in Huaxia.”
“The Martial Arts Department is similar to the Dragon Soul, a special organization in Huaxia. Although their responsibilities sometimes overlap, if it involves people and conflicts in the martial arts world, the Martial Arts Department has the final say in dealing with it, and no one can interfere!”
The old man nodded at the girl and then looked at Ye Chen coldly.
“Do you understand now? 1 know you have a dispute with Tang Ao. We will report it to the higher-ups and deal with it impartially.”
Tang Ao revealed a sinister smile.
“Ye Chen, you didn’t expect me to have this trick up my sleeve, did you?”
“Oh?”
Ye Chen’s face was expressionless.
The old man did not have much patience and repeated, “For the last time, put down the dagger! Otherwise, we’ll attack!”
“Alright then.”
Ye Chen nodded. Moments later, he gathered his true qi, and without hesitation…
Swish!
The dagger flew and embedded itself into a wall.
However, at the same time…
Plop!
Tang Ao’s head fell to the ground!
Ye Chen’s lips curled into a cold smile.
Let Tang Ao go?
That was impossible!
At this moment, the entire banquet hall was deathly silent, and everyone stared wide-eyed at Ye Chen.
Lunatic!
This person was a complete lunatic!
He even disregarded Huaxia’s Martial Arts Department!
Did this guy want to make enemies out of everyone?
Ye Chen smiled as he said calmly, “I’m really sorry, my hand slipped..”
