“Pu!”
Yan Hua spat out a mouthful of fresh blood; most of the teeth in his mouth was gone by now. But while his mouth hurt like crazy, his pride was wounded much more heavily. At his level, it was still possible to regrow those shattered teeth. But, his life had been smooth for so many years; when had he ever been beaten up like this before?
The flames of rage were something that could swallow a person’s heart. And right now, Yan Hua’s heart was completely consumed with anger, and he simply wished to kill Bei Feng’s entire group!
How dare they! Yan Hua screamed in his heart. Not mentioning his own status, his father was a powerful Thousand Year King realm expert! But this bunch of Hundred Year realm bastards actually dared to offend him like that!
Lunatics! That bunch of people are all lunatics! To actually beat and reduce Yan Hua to such a state inside the Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce!
Lu Zhi’s heart turned cold. Just as he was about to run up to stop him, his body froze as his eyes came into contact with Lu Bu’s. His entire back turned cold as though he’d locked eyes with a fierce tiger.
At this time, Lu Zhi felt somewhat fortunate in is heart. Luckily, he hadn’t accepted the proposition of the other party just now. Otherwise, the next one to be down on luck would be him. But looking at Yan Hua’s current state, Lu Zhi was also incredibly startled. There was no doubt that Yan Hua would definitely blame the whole matter on him.
In that moment, he could not help but to grow hateful of Bei Feng’s group. It was all that bunch of people’s fault! If not for them, he would still have been fine.
Bei Feng completely did not have the leisure to bother about what these people were thinking. At this time, he was simply looking calmly at the bunch of cultivators running in his direction.
These guards were very fast, and every single one of them was a Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer expert. The person at the lead was even an expert at the half-step Thousand Year King realm.
“Stop!”
With a single glance, Fang Xun could see the entire situation inside. His scalp grew numb, and his face turned slightly pale. Yan Hua’s identity in the Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce was no secret at all. Although he normally also could not stand the arrogance of this Yan Hua, the situation was very different this time. After all, Yan Hua had actually been beaten up inside the Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce. Once the kid’s father investigated and pursued the matter, all of them would be down on luck.
“Plop!”
Lu Bu threw Yan Hua down onto the ground, not even sparing him a glance. Trash like this did not even have the qualifications to stir his emotions.
“Master Yan! Are you alright?” Fang Xun’s group of 10 hurriedly rushed up and surrounded Bei Feng’s group while he ran over to help Yan Hua up personally.
“PA!”
Yan Hua pushed Fang Xun aside and gave him a slap as he screamed, “Do I look like someone who’s alright?!
“Trash! What’s the point of raising you all for so long! Why did it take you so long to come up?! I will tell my father about this later for sure! Now, immediately… immediately arrest that bunch of people, break their limbs, and cripple their cultivation for me!”
Fang Xun’s face turned a funny shade of green and white as the veins on his arms rose up. However, he still endured it ultimately. If it had been him a few years ago, he would not have tolerated such abuse. But now that he was older and had more responsibilities, he’d also lost that determination to live fearlessly.
The comfortable life of the recent years had eroded his diligent spirit. If he lost this job, he would no longer have the courage to go out and pit his life against Demonic Beasts again.
“Master Yan, this is the city, if we cripple them, I fear—”
Yan Hua directly interrupted Fang Xun’s words as he spat out the blood in his mouth and demanded, “There’s no need for you to worry about that, I will handle everything! Right now, I want these people to suffer a life worse than death!”
“What are you all waiting for? To actually dare to create trouble in our Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce, arrest them all!” Fang Xun directly gave the order and charged towards Bei Feng’s group.
Fang Xun had a savage look on his face as he turned around. The slap he’d suffered was completely because of these people! He might not be able to offend Yan Hua, but could it be that he couldn’t offend these people as well?
“Reckless fools.” Lu Bu laughed coldly, and his blood Qi congealed into a huge halberd. Raising the halberd with a single arm, he slashed it down ruthlessly towards Fang Xun!
“Lie down for me!”
Being a half-step Thousand Year King realm expert, Fang Xun had powerful strength as well. A layer of blood Qi shrouded his sword, and he stabbed towards Lu Bu without hesitation!
The others also got into action at the same time. The numbers on both sides were rather even, but the result was that Fang Xun’s side was completely crushed!
“Break!” Lu Bu roared loudly, and the halberd chopped down ruthlessly against Fang Xun’s sword!
“Ding!”
With a light clinging sound, the sword in Fang Xun’s hand directly broke into two!
“Pu-chi!”
“Grah!”
Lu Bu’s momentum did not stop, and after chopping through the sword, the halberd sliced into Fang Xun’s shoulder. After that, he lifted the halberd again and swung it horizontally towards Fang Xun!
A muffled grunt rang out, and Fang Xun was smashed into the ground. Numerous long cracks appeared along the floors of the incredibly sturdy floors.
“Pu! How is that possible!?”
Fang Xun spat out a huge mouthful of blood as he turned to look at Lu Bu with shock and disbelief. He was a lofty half-step Thousand Year King realm expert, okay?! How could he be defeated with such ease?!
“Relentless Will!”
Lu Bing’s hands were even faster as the sword in her hand flashed and shone like a lotus flower, its beauty breathtaking.
But, hidden within the beauty was an incredible amount of killing intent and great danger! Looking at the beautiful lotus, everyone’s attention was instantly drawn to it.
“Pu-chi!”
Numerous sharp sword keening shrills rang out in the air; five cultivators had already lost their arms by the time everyone snapped out of their daze!
“AH!”
“When did the sword slash out?!”
In an instant, the remaining four hurriedly disengaged from their opponents as they looked at those five without their arms.
“Hm? What’s going on?”
On the roof of the building, a middle-aged man who was sitting cross-legged suddenly opened his eyes and rushed down.
The middle-aged man’s face turned ugly as he thought, Who is it? What great guts, to actually dare to create trouble in my Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce!
At the same time, his aura burst out without reservation, surging out in all directions. He was clearly a Thousand Year King realm expert!
“That aura should be Pan Yun Fei’s? Why’s he going crazy for no reason?”
“That direction should be the Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce… Interesting.”
“The life here is quite boring, it’s not bad to watch a free show once in a while as well.”
It was not only the Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce’s higher-ups that were alerted. In an instant, all the other large chambers of commerce in the same area were also alerted, and their big shots all came rushing towards Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce.
“Ai, you’re really making things difficult for me. Since you’re so disobedient, there’s also no point in keeping your ears anymore.” Bei Feng sighed as he looked at Yan Hua.
“Zeng!”
“Pu-chi!”
A light flashed past and Yan Hua only heard a ringing sound as his ears turned numb. As he reached his hands out, his ears were already gone, leaving only a pile of blood in his hand. Fang Xun covered his wound, and used his blood Qi to repair his injuries. Looking at this scene, everyone had a heavy feeling in their hearts.
“AHH, MY EARS! You’re all dead, all of you! Lord Thousand Year King will never let you off!”
“Damn it, this is troublesome. Looks like I’m out of luck.”
“Shing!”
Lu Bing returned her sword to its sheath and stood behind Bei Feng.
“Let’s go.” Bei Feng flicked a finger and a line of blood Qi shot out, directly bursting Yan Hua’s dantian. Completely ignoring Yan Hua’s wretched cries, Bei Feng led the rest away.
A series of footsteps rang out in the passageway as a figure slowly came into view. A powerful voice rang out, accompanied by a burst of invisible pressure. “Coming and leaving as you please? What kind of place do you take my Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce to be?!”
This pressure was so strong that everyone felt as if a huge mountain had appeared on their backs, causing them to find it difficult to catch a breath.
But Bei Feng, Lu Bu, and Lu Bing only felt a slight discomfort, and their expressions were completely unchanged.
“If the Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce truly does its business in such a manner, then I will indeed come and go as I please.” A smile appeared on the side of Bei Feng’s face as his aura exploded wildly. The heavily injured cultivators on Fang Xun’s side were instantly sent flying by that blast of Qi!
“Ka-cha!”
“Pu!”
The most wretched one was naturally Yan Hua. He was directly blasted away by the burst of Qi, which shattered an unknown number of bones. He spat out a huge mouthful of blood while in the air, and fainted as he hit the ground.
Hm? Thousand Year King? No! That’s not a Thousand Year King!
After Bei Feng released his aura to block Pan Yun Fei’s the latter’s face changed into one of shock and confusion. But after a careful observation, he realized that the opponent was not a Thousand Year King. That only caused him to feel more startled. This person’s aura was not inferior to even his own!
Pan Yun Fei’s expression flickered as he heard Bei Feng’s words. Pointing at Lu Zhi, he commanded, “What’s going on? You, tell me.”
Lu Zhi’s face changed as he hurriedly told the story, spicing it up with lies and exaggerations. In essence, he was pinning all the crimes onto Bei Feng’s head.
He still had to work here, so he naturally could not afford to offend Yan Hua. If he spoke up for Yan Hua, the latter might not pursue the matter with him.
… As for choosing between toadying up to Yan Hua or an outsider like Bei Feng, Lu Zhi obviously chose Yan Hua.
Hearing Lu Zhi’s words, Pan Yun Fei harrumphed, and said coldly, “Hmph! That’s some impressive guts!”
“I shall not debate with you about who was in the right or wrong. History has always been written by the winners, and everything depends on strength in the end. The weak will always be in the wrong no matter what!” Bei Feng said calmly, his eyes not showing any emotions at all.
“Interesting; will you surrender yourself, or should I come over personally? You are exactly right, the weak are in the wrong!” Pan Yun Fei raised his brows with interest. That was a very interesting comprehension.
“You are the weaker side; are you sure you want to fight with me?” Bei Feng asked in a frank manner. Behind him, Lu Bu and the rest appeared completely unworried.
“Not knowing the immensity of the heavens and earth… Looks like I’ll have to let you taste some bitterness.” Pan Yun Fei snorted coldly. Had he heard wrongly? That Hundred Year realm brat said that his was the weaker side? In that moment, he felt quite upset with Bei Feng’s arrogance.
“Boom!” Not bothering to contend with Bei Feng in a war of the tongue any longer, Pan Yun Fei made his aura burst out without reservation, forming a huge palm of blood Qi which grabbed towards Bei Feng!
“Crunch, crunch!”
Bei Feng rapped his knuckles against the gangster rabbit that was chewing on a carrot on the side and watching the show. “Gu Qi, don’t just chew on your carrot all day long; it’s time to work.”
