Chapter 640: Badmouthing
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Little Chen, it’s not that I don’t want to say it, but there are some things that we really can’t fight against.”
The rule of the Kunlun Mountains was that strength reigned supreme. Without strength, one could not protect their dignity.
Shi San has already left. I don’t want you to be implicated by his death.”
“Let this matter end here. Let it be as silent as dust. Shi San would probably want the same. He has always treated you as his younger brother. He wants you to live well more than anyone else.”
Shi Zhenhai muttered these words as he watched Ye Chen’s retreating figure.
Outside the entrance.
Shen Shixi glanced at Ye Chen and said respectfully, “Mr. Ye, this matter shouldn’t be that simple.”
Ye Chen’s eyes were cold, so cold that it made one’s heart palpitate.
“The disappearance of the Medical God Sect and the incident with Shi San are definitely not what they are made out to be.”
“No matter who is behind this, I will find him and make him kneel in front of Shi San’s grave to apologize!”
As the sky was getting darker, the three of them could only find a place in the Kunlun Mountains to stay in.
The inn was magnificent.
The people who came and went had different cultivation realms. The weakest were immortal ascension realm experts, while the strongest were so powerful that their strength was unfathomable.
Ye Chen could clearly feel a few pairs of eyes glancing at the three of them from the depths of the inn. However, the gazes did not stay on them for long. Clearly, Ye Chen’s group did not pose much of a threat.
The three of them ordered some food on the sixth floor of the inn. As they ate, they overheard the discussions from the other tables around them.
“In a few days, the young lady of the Li family will be marrying Gao Fengping, who has entered the Spirit Endowment Rankings. This can be considered a grand occasion.”
“What do you mean in a few days? The engagement ceremony between the two of them will be held at eight o’clock tonight. I heard that the nearby experts have all come to celebrate this occasion.”
“Li Xin’s looks and figure are really unbeatable. Her figure is devilish, but there’s a devil living in her heart.”
“Brother, what do you mean?” a transcendent realm expert curiously asked the fatty beside him.
The fat man ate a few peanuts, looked around, and said softly, “Brother, you might not know, but Li Xin was engaged before, and her fiance just happened to commit suicide five days ago. Don’t you think it’s strange?”
“If I remember correctly, that miserable fellow is Shi San from the Medical God Sect. He had some medical skills and strength, but unfortunately, he was unworthy of Li Xin. He was just a toad lusting after swan meat. He should have known his own limits.”
Ye Chen’s chopsticks froze in mid-air when he heard this, and a cold red light flashed across his eyes.
He knew about Li Xin. In the past five years, Shi San had often talked about this beautiful fiancee of his.
“Little Chen, you have to remember that your future sister-in-law is called Li Xin, the daughter of the Li family! When you come back from Huaxia, I’ll show you what a fairy looks like!”
“I’ve always thought that the Shi family was the smallest family in the Kunlun Mountains. I never thought that the Shi family’s ancestors were once glorious and left me this stroke of luck. I just don’t know how Li Xin feels about me.”
“However, a suave person like me will probably charm her in the end. Little Chen, you have to work hard. Hehe, don’t wait until I have a child to find a partner.”
The words that rang in Ye Chen’s ears were all drunk words that Shi San had said when he was drinking with him. He just wanted to live a good life with Li Xin in the future.
Ye Chen had laughed it off at the time, but at this moment, Li Xin’s name was like a blade stabbing into his heart.
If Shi San’s death was really Li Xin’s doing, then he would bury the entire Li family with him!
However, just as Ye Chen’s anger was boiling, the fatty at the next table continued, “However, there’s something wrong with the toad’s death. Li Xin didn’t need to be so ruthless. I think this matter might have something to do with Gao Fengping.”
“Gao Fengping has entered the Spirit Endowment Rankings and is considered one of the 100 most talented people in the Kunlun Mountains. As long as he doesn’t die prematurely, his future is limitless. It’s normal that Li Xin would choose Gao Fengping. A trash and a genius, if it were you, who would you choose?”
The transcendent realm expert took a sip of wine, “What the f*ck is there to choose between? That piece of trash’s death is well-deserved.”
Seeing that Ye Chen was on the verge of exploding, Shen Shixi quickly stood up and walked to the two men. He whispered, “You two, it’s not good to speak badly of a dead person . I advise you to eat peacefully.”
The fat man glanced at Shen Shixi and frowned.
“Who do you think you are? What does what I say to my friend have to do with you? If you continue to be a busybody, I’ll bury you here. You can join that piece of trash in hell!”
After saying that, the fat man suddenly smiled and said, “Oh, if you’re reacting , does it mean that you have a relationship with that piece of trash?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Chen could not hold it in any longer. He raised his head, and his cold gaze turned toward the fat man.
“Shi San is my friend. I won’t allow you to insult him behind his back. If you want to live, kneel down and cripple your cultivation.”
Ye Chen’s indifferent voice was incomparably calm.
The fat man was stunned. He looked at Ye Chen. When he sensed Ye Chen’s cultivation level, the corners of his mouth curled up in disdain.
Before he could finish his sentence, Ye Chen’s eyes turned cold. He slammed his palm on the table and the powerful force of the impact sent the peanuts in front of him flying!
Ye Chen grabbed one with two fingers, and then swung his arm, his true qi and killing intent wrapping itself around the peanut.
The tiny peanut was like a meteor, tearing everything apart!
At this moment, the fat man naturally felt danger, and a sense of impending doom engulfed him. He did not even have time to react!
The peanut pierced the fat man’s throat, and then embedded itself into the wall on the other side..
