Chapter 319: 298 Killing II

Within half a second, five Reinforced Human shadows charged rapidly toward Chen Zonghan and the others, swinging fists and palms, wielding knives and swords, and striking from every angle.

"Nice try. Too bad..."

A person next to Chen Zonghan stepped forward and waved a hand.

Whoosh!

A red sword light suddenly shot out from the sleeve of the person.

It was a Flying Yi!

The sword light blinked as it pierced through the five surrounding people, then exploded into a burst of white flames among the nearby guards.

In the midst of screams, several people around them were blown away by the explosion, falling to the ground motionless.

"Flying Yi....!" A wave of shocked cries erupted.

In a situation where no one carried weapons, even a simple standard short sword Flying Yi became an absolute weapon of massive destruction.

Instantly, the crowd stirring all around quieted down.

No one dared to move.

At such a time, everyone understood the significance of a Flying Yi.

"I’m very sorry, if you all could kindly wait here for fifteen minutes, I guarantee no harm will come to anyone," Chen Zonghan said loudly with a laugh.

"What do you guarantee with?" Li Chengyi stepped forward, asking coldly.

"Do you have any other options?" Chen Zonghan retorted.

Li Chengyi fell silent.

In front of all these people, he didn’t want to reveal his Destiny lineage.

But...

Really, was waiting just fifteen minutes enough to be safe?

VIP seats.

Amidst the chaos, each family made their own decisions, attempting to leave through different exits.

Some people rushed toward the helipad above, trying to escape through the air. Some chose the ground.

Streams of people separated and moved towards various locations. Inside the guild hall, they looked like lines of gray thread.

Li Changgu was among those preparing to leave through the VIP seats exit.

"Let’s first turn at the rest area by the Dragon Whisker Sect side, Xiao Nan is still there!"

He commanded the two guards beside him in a deep voice.

The three had just turned a corner.

Then they heard a huge roar from behind.

Ah!

A dense chorus of screams came from the VIP seats they had just left.

Painful howls, angry roars, screams, bargaining, pleading, a jumble of noises instantly overwhelmed the little remaining sanity of the people in the VIP seats.

This place was scarcely populated, comprised mostly of the core members and controlling descendants of major families.

At this moment, within the not-so-large seating area, unbeknownst to when, there appeared two men clad in white Taoist robes.

As they made their way forward, a simple palm strike from them created a mist of blood.

They didn’t care whom they struck; anyone within five meters was a target.

To them, all people, regardless of gender, age, or status, were like lambs to the slaughter.

Even highly skilled guards who resisted were just able to hold on for an extra second before their bodies were pierced, and they were sent flying.

"That person... Chen Jiahan!!?? What’s happening!?" Hiding around the corner, Li Changgu recognized the two people indiscriminately killing.

The Bagua symbols of the Bagua Gate on their Taoist robes were very distinctive.

But at this moment, the snow-white robes were spattered with specks of blood, adorned like red plums.

After slaughtering dozens of people, the survivors finally broke down and scattered in all directions.

"Go!" Li Changgu came to his senses and quickly led his men to sneak away.

But as he turned around.

Swish!

A bloodstained white Taoist robe suddenly appeared before him.

Chen Jiahan, who had been killing people not far away just moments before, one of the two, had suddenly crossed over ten meters and arrived at the bend next to them.

"There are a few peepers here." The man looked at Li Changgu indifferently.

"Eliminate them, and head to the next VIP seats," Chen Jiahan’s voice drifted from not far off.

He seemed to be walking away already.

"Heh..." The man curled his lips slightly, looking at the stiff Li Changgu and his companions.

He suddenly raised his hand.

Bagua Palm Xun Wind.

Woosh!

His right palm, like a silent gust, blew toward the hearts of Li Changgu’s two companions.

Several tons of eruptive force, when unleashed at such speed at their hearts, would instantly pierce right through their bodies with the slightest touch.

Li Changgu wanted to dodge, but he couldn’t respond in time.

His entire body felt like it was stuck in a quagmire, unresponsive, his limbs as if shackled.

As the approaching palm got closer, for the first time, he felt the presence of despair.

He had worked so hard for so many years.

He thought he had gained a lot, that he had grown much stronger.

But he had never imagined... that he would end up dying here inexplicably.

Dying at the hands of a martial artist he would never have looked straight at... like an ant, like trash.

Countless memories flashed through his mind at this moment.

"I...." Li Changgu opened his mouth. The last image that crystallized in his mind was his daughter’s face.

Woosh!

The palm stopped.

Right at the last moment before it touched him, it halted.

The man from Bagua Gate stood frozen in place, his complexion turning very white, paper white.

"Who gave you the courage to make a move on my father!?" A tall female silhouette appeared behind him.

Whoosh!

All of a sudden, a stream of dark red blood gushed from the center of his chest, ripping through his clothes, and shot skyward.

As the blood soared into the air, it transformed into a thin, elaborate dragon.

The blood dragon continued to charge over ten meters, not stopping until it had drained all the blood from his body. Then, with a burst, the dragon dispersed and fell to the ground, disappearing as ordinary blood.

"Xiao... Xiao Nan!?" It was only then that Li Changgu resumed his labored breathing.

Just at that fleeting moment, he had even forgotten to breathe, his entire body seeming to have entered an extreme state of life flashing before his eyes.

Until his daughter arrived...

Li Chongnan narrowed his eyes, not bothering with a greeting, instead walking past the corpses, out of the corner, and looking towards another white-clad figure who had stopped a short distance away.

"Chen Jiahan...!"

The face behind Chen Jiahan’s mask turned towards her.

"Oh? It’s you."

"Facing me, you’re not running away?" He turned around completely, seemingly a bit interested in Li Chongnan.

"Run away?" Li Chongnan took steps closer to him.

"What are you even? My master never taught me to retreat without fighting!" A trace of mockery appeared on her face.

"Of course, if you were trying to use these irrelevant trash talks to buy time, then you might be disappointed."

Zzt.

She stopped three meters away.

"Because..." She raised her hand, pointing at him.

"The time it takes me to kill you, will be very short...."

Chen Jiahan chuckled lightly, lifting up his right hand.

"It seems you’re still unaware of the gap between us."

Boom!!

In an instant, his palm clenched, and a puff of white air exploded.

The dissipating white air momentarily caught Li Chongnan’s attention.

It was in that split second, White Shadow flickered, instantly bridging the distance, appearing to Li Chongnan’s left.

A palm strike.

’Innate Eight Trigrams: Li Huo!’

Boom!!

This palm strike actually frictioned the air, instantly ignited red flames, and heavily hit towards Li Chongnan’s neck.

Right at that moment.

Li Chongnan’s eyes flashed red. Silently, dozens of Sword of Wisdom Sword Dragons burst out from around her vital points!

’Holy Spirit Hundred Dragons!!’

Nobody expected the real start of the duel that couldn’t happen on the battle stage would occur at this moment.

At the exit.

Li Chengyi watched Chen Zonghan.

The latter’s calm demeanor indicated that the situation was completely within his expectations.

This gave Li Chengyi a bad premonition.

"How about it? With your strength and talent, and the system behind you, why not come with us to White Star? Only there can your potential be truly unleashed," Chen Zonghan said with a smile.

"...." Li Chengyi didn’t respond.

He kept flashing through the recent barrage of information in his mind, compiling it.

The enhanced him, after his Shadow Dragon Bloodline, was thinking much faster than before.

What’s the point of attacking the Martial Arts Hall?

What’s the use of attacking an Imperial Family member who came to watch the match?

Is it worth it for them to go to such lengths, exert so much effort, pay so many costs?

Are these people here just to delay for fifteen minutes?

What’s going to happen after fifteen minutes?

What is their real purpose?

A flicker of thought crossed Li Chengyi’s mind.

"Since you’re not planning to harm us, why not just let us leave completely? Why not just leave behind the person you’re looking for?" He spoke.

"That won’t do." Chen Zonghan shook his head. "If you go, Andu won’t care about our lives; they’ll just bomb us from the air."

"However..." He glanced over the few people beside Li Chengyi, seeming reluctant to turn hostile. "I can give some special treatment to you from Dragon Whisker Sect. Allow just the few of you to leave separately."

Leave separately?

Yu Yanxiao and Zhuang Yijing suddenly showed expressions of surprise.

But Yu Long and Li Chengyi had grim looks on their faces.

At a time like this, being allowed to leave alone, while everyone else was held hostage, why would only a few of them be able to leave? Why?

People outside watching the scene would first doubt, not come to their rescue.

"The few from Dragon Whisker Sect have always been the respected friends I admire. Letting you go out is no big deal. It won’t affect the bigger picture." At this time, Chen Zonghan seemed even more certain about his idea. With a clap of his hands.

"Xiao Lou."

An disciple from Bagua Gate quickly stepped forward. "Present."

"Come, lead the few from Dragon Whisker Sect out through the special passage," Chen Zonghan said with a beaming smile.

With these words, a series of unfriendly gazes fell on Li Chengyi.

If they really could leave now... in the future, they would definitely become a target.

"Old sir, you’re forcing me," Li Chengyi said, his expression growing colder as he watched Chen Zonghan.

"No, I’m just expressing goodwill," Chen Zonghan replied with a smile.

Choosing to refuse, Dragon Whisker Sect would have to accept an unknown fate with everyone else.

Choosing to accept, once they leave, Dragon Whisker Sect would be stained with the label of Utopia terrorists, subject to suspicion, distrust, and hostility.

This was a choice.

A choice given to Li Chengyi by Chen Zonghan.

"If that’s the case." Li Chengyi took a step forward. He quickly reached a decision in his eyes.

"I too, would like to express my goodwill."

His right hand hung down, as a Golden Sword slid into his palm.

Hiss...

An invisible ripple of air spread out from him in all directions.

"You have two choices."

"Either hand over the Force Field Generator."

"Or... I start killing you right now."

"Young friend, you’ve made a wrong choice..." Chen Zonghan said with a smile.

"Only the living can be right or wrong."

Around Li Chengyi, within a ten-meter radius, a circle of burning golden lines silently emerged, closing in, encasing Chen Zonghan and his people.
