177: Chapter 176: One Slap, Killing Two 177: Chapter 176: One Slap, Killing Two Li Chen clapped his hands and walked towards Wui Shaotian, asking with a smile.
“How does it feel, the taste of my lightning?”
“You brat, don’t be arrogant!”
A ghastly elder saw Li Chen approaching and suddenly bellowed.
Then, from beneath his black robe, a skeletal hand swiftly extended, flickering with a gloomy green flame.
“Ghostly Ghost Fire!”
Li Chen’s expression remained unchanged as he coldly retorted, “Such lowly tricks, you dare to flaunt them before me?”
Before his words even fell, he countered with a backhand slap.
The palm wind was fierce and domineering, like the surging waves atop the sea.
And the ghastly elder’s Ghostly Ghost Fire was like a lone boat drifting with the waves, seemingly on the verge of being engulfed by the towering waves at any moment.
Seeing the dire situation, another elder also urgently summoned his True Yuan, joining the fray.
Facing two opponents, Li Chen still appeared relaxed and at ease, seemingly not taking them seriously at all.
Indeed, that was the case.
The cultivation of these two elders was merely at the Inner Strength Peak, even less than that of Wui Shaotian.
In his eyes, they were no different from ants, easily crushed with a flick of the hand.
The palm wind broke through the defense of the two elders and harshly slapped onto their withered, walnut-like faces.
Five blood-red finger imprints immediately appeared on their gaunt faces.
Their skulls were shattered by the fierce Hand Energy, and their pupils violently dilated as the spark of life within them dispersed instantly.
They fell backwards with fresh blood spewing from their mouths, collapsing onto the ground.
Seeing Li Chen slap two Inner Strength Peak masters to death with a single palm strike, everyone present, including Wui Shaotian, wore a shocked expression as if they had seen a ghost.
Judging from the thunderous methods displayed by Li Chen, he was undoubtedly a Young Master.
My heavens, not even at the age of twenty and already a Grandmaster like the Divine Dragon, this completely overturned their understanding of the entire world.
At this moment, Zhao Yikuan almost regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.
If he had known that Li Chen was a Young Master, he wouldn’t have cared about the Miao Territory Witch Family, a godforsaken place.
He probably would have washed Zhao Yuqing clean and sent her to Li Chen’s bed earlier.
By then, who in this southeastern corner would dare to provoke the Zhao Family?
Would he, Zhao Yikuan, not walk sideways across the entire Jiangnan region?
His daughter truly had foresight, recognizing a True Dragon with her sagacious eyes, unlike himself, blinded by cataracts, unable to see Tai Mountain right in front of him.
However, when he thought back to how he had written an announcement to sever the father-daughter relationship with Yuqing last night, all to show goodwill towards Wui Shaotian and clear his association with Zhao Yuqing,
And to demonstrate loyalty to the Wu Family, even having people publish it in the Morning Post, Southeast Daily, Early Morning News, and dozens of other media outlets overnight, causing a citywide uproar that couldn’t be undone,
Thinking of all these, Zhao Yikuan felt a darkness before his eyes, his body lost balance, and he nearly stumbled to the ground.
“Master, Master, what’s wrong with you?” Zhao Bo rushed to support Zhao Yikuan when he almost passed out.
Zhao Yikuan glared furiously, his eyes about to shoot fire.
If it weren’t for this bastard’s terrible idea of severing father-daughter ties, would things have spiraled into this mess?
Finally, Zhao Yikuan could not suppress his all energies and kicked at Zhao Bo.
“Get lost, look at the great idea you came up with!”
Zhao Bo felt wronged, thinking to himself: Although I suggested the idea, it was you who made the decision.
Besides, that public notice about the severing of ties was written by you yourself; am I to blame?
Of course, these thoughts could only simmer in his mind, never to be spoken out loud.
Otherwise, given Zhao Yikuan’s current temperament, wouldn’t he just skin him alive?
Looking at Wui Shaotian, he truly embodied the ruler of Miao Territory, and was well-versed in judging the situation.
Seeing Li Chen effortlessly defeat his Half-step Innate self in just one exchange and slap two Inner Strength Peak experts to death, he understood that he was no match for Li Chen.
To resist would be like an egg striking a rock.
A true man can bend and stretch.
If Han Xin hadn’t endured the humiliation beneath someone’s crotch, how could he ever have accomplished his great achievements?
Thinking this, Wui Shaotian suddenly stretched out his hand and urgently shouted, “Li Chen, brother, please hold your hand, and listen to me!”
Li Chen curled his lip and coldly said, “Drop the ‘brother’, I’m not familiar with you!”
Wui Shaotian felt an indescribable suffocation in his heart.
He was the first among the great families of the Miao, the young master of the Wu Family, the future helmsman.
In Miao Territory and even the entire southwestern frontier, he was an influential figure.
Those who wanted to call him brother could line up for two streets.
Now, however, here he was, lowering himself to call someone else brother, only to be spurned.
Yet he dared not protest, and had to swallow his grievances.
If he angered the Killing God before him and was slapped to death, that would be a huge loss.
Li, I failed to recognize Tai Mountain.
How about this: if you spare my life, I will yield Zhao Yuqing to you and not compete further.
Moreover, beyond that, the Wu Family has other generous gifts to offer!”
Li Chen sneered, pointing at Zhao Yuqing, “Is she yours to offer?
It’s clear that I took her.”
Zhao Yuqing, standing aside, pursed her lips and mumbled to herself: What does this jerk think I am, an object that belongs to whoever takes me?
Wui Shaotian was momentarily stunned.
Li Chen’s words seemed quite reasonable, and he found no retort.
Then how about this: I have a sister, seventeen years old, beautiful as a flower.
Li doesn’t mind, I can decide here and now to give her to you, to be your servant or your maid!”
Zhao Yuqing felt a tightness in her heart and held her breath, waiting for Li Chen’s response.
Li Chen looked at Wui Shaotian as if he were looking at an idiot for quite a while.
“Do you know the law, you TMD?
Seventeen years old, a minor, okay?
Three years minimum, up to the death penalty!”
Wui Shaotian was at a loss for words.
He had never imagined that such a young grandmaster like Li Chen would actually fear mundane laws.
Zhao Yuqing gently patted her chest, relieved that she was of age.
Ah spit, even though she was of age, it wasn’t like she was marrying Li Chen, what was there to be relieved about?
Seeing that his beauty trap failed, Wui Shaotian came up with another plan.
Li, perhaps you are not aware.
My Wu Family is the top great family in Miao Territory, dominating the southwestern border for three hundred years.
My father, Wui Batian, is a renowned cross-training master.”
“Furthermore, the Wu Family has four Half-step Innate venerated elders and dozens of Inner Strength Peak martial artists.
Also, I have an uncle who is the guardian elder of the leading power in the southwest, the Yin Ghost Sect.
Li, as a young grandmaster and a Divine Dragon in the sky, you must understand what this means, right?”
