Chapter 571: Chapter 405: Opportunity, Heaven and Earth Furnace! (Extra 7k words chapter for Alliance Hierarch 4401)_4

“Because you Japanese dogs are unworthy to be worshipped in my Central Plains,” sneered Chen Yuan, “You know little of honor and nothing of greater righteousness. Had you not crossed my path, it might have been another matter, but now that you have come to my attention, not a single shrine of yours in Qingzhou shall remain. These things belong in the filthiest corners of the latrine, trampled by thousands.”

Chen Yuan even knew of these dogs’ nature; once they gained power, they would surely bite back.

He had originally thought that such things existed only within the domain of Yun Yang Prefecture, but now it seemed the Japanese dogs harbored no small ambitions. As long as he was able,

he would not stand idly by.

Upon hearing these words, Yagyu Takeo immediately became flustered, but this was quickly followed by fury as he glared at Chen Yuan and said:

“Green Envoy Chen, do you understand the consequences of your actions?”

“A true gentleman acts according to principle—what are petty consequences to him?” retorted Chen Yuan. The moment his opponent revealed his Qi Fortune, his death sentence was declared, and under these circumstances, of course Chen Yuan would find himself a good excuse.

Thus, even if people learned of it, he wouldn’t fear anything.

“If that’s the case, then there’s nothing more to discuss. We take our leave!” Yagyu Takeo took a deep breath, suppressing the rage in his heart. Before Chen Yuan, he didn’t dare to draw his sword.

Having said his piece, Yagyu Takeo prepared to leave with his men.

But how could Chen Yuan give him the chance? His gaze turned frosty as he said indifferently:

“Who gave you permission to leave?”

Yagyu Takeo’s footsteps halted. Turning his head, he looked steadily at Chen Yuan and inquired,

“Is there anything else you wish of me, Green Envoy Chen?”

“Since you’ve come, you might as well stay.”

Ye Chenbai was immediately startled, hurriedly warning:

“Brother Chen, you mustn’t!”

He knew Chen Yuan’s temperament all too well—he was resolved to make the man stay by force.

But… private fights were forbidden in Martial Emperor City.

If one wanted to settle a grudge, it had to be done in the designated arena. Otherwise, the guards of Martial Emperor City wouldn’t care who was fighting and would suppress all involved.

Such incidents had occurred countless times before.

He didn’t oppose Chen Yuan’s desire to kill Yagyu Takeo; he simply didn’t want him to get into trouble because of it.

Yagyu Takeo stared at Chen Yuan:

“What, does Green Envoy Chen intend to keep me here? Dare you?”

“What is there to fear?”

Chen Yuan raised his hand, cutting off Ye Chenbai’s continued efforts to persuade him. Zhang Xuan and the others drew their swords, warily eyeing the retinue that Yagyu Takeo had brought with him.

“Martial Emperor City does not permit private duels. If you dare kill me, you will not live either,” Yagyu Takeo huffed with a hint of mockery, saying plainly:

“I’ll just stand right here. If you dare to make a move, go ahead and do it!”

Chen Yuan laughed—a wild, unrestrained laugh. In the next moment, his figure suddenly moved, leaving a trailing afterimage in the void. The Emperor Slaughter Saber then enveloped the entire Ascending Immortal Tower with a fearsome aura.

This made Yagyu Takeo’s body jolt violently.

“Swish!”

A stream of sharp Sword Light flashed in an instant, soaring into the sky.

“Bang!”

Yagyu Takeo’s head dropped to the ground in an instant, his eyes wide with terror as if he had seen something horrific before his death. With Chen Yuan’s current strength,

even a Reach Profound Peak warrior would be no match if they weren’t in the top ten of the Hidden Dragon List. He was confident in delivering a fatal blow before his opponent could react. He bent down, picked up Yagyu Takeo’s head, and said with a faint smile, “I’ve never come across such a request in this lifetime, but I’m a man of kind heart—naturally, I must fulfill his wish.”

The surroundings were deathly silent. Amidst Chen Yuan’s murmur, the few Reach Profound retainers that Yagyu Takeo had brought began to draw their swords, but Shangguan Yu and Zhang Xuan stepped forward immediately.

Yet before they could act, the fierce aura within the Emperor Slaughter Saber enveloped them, and, with grimacing faces full of unwillingness, they collapsed resoundingly onto the ground.

Mere Reach Profound, mere ants!

A gleam of blue Qi Fortune flashed in the depths of Chen Yuan’s eyes, like a wandering dragon, it burrowed into his Spirit Platform, into the depths of his consciousness. After absorbing that streak of Qi Fortune,

an invisible vibration trembled, and soon a new beacon of Qi Fortune emerged in Chen Yuan’s mind.

“Dragon Lock River in the isolated mountain of the East Sea, Heaven and Earth Furnace for refining Divine Pills!”

Opportunity, guidance!

Chen Yuan opened his eyes, and a sharp brilliance flashed across his gaze. Indeed, this opportunity was the exact superior blessed land he urgently needed, the Heaven and Earth Furnace….

It seemed that his Core Formation was not far off.

Fortunately, this superior treasure was located in the East Sea, so there was no need to travel too far. Afterwards, a little investigation would be necessary. With the Ascending Immortal Tower’s ability, finding this so-called Dragon Lock River shouldn’t be too difficult.

Finally….

He was about to form his core!

Only by forming a True Pill could he be considered among the core ranks of Jianghu, possessing immense authority. And he, too, would then ascend to even higher levels.

“Brother Chen… you…”

Ye Chenbai looked at the bodies strewn across the floor, finding himself at a loss for words for a moment. This was no small matter, especially since it happened in Martial Emperor City, and even more so within Ascending Immortal Tower.

It would definitely cause a massive shock.

And all this happened because of him. If he hadn’t introduced those Martial Artists from Japan, Chen Yuan wouldn’t have gotten so infuriated. Thinking of this, he let out a long sigh.

“Brother Ye, you heard it too. It was he who deliberately sought death,” Chen Yuan said, turning his head with a light chuckle.

He had to take action here as a last resort. Ascending Immortal Tower provided the best opportunity. If he missed it and the opponent was protected by the strong members of the Yagyu Family,

his chances would decrease significantly.

Moreover, he couldn’t wait that long. After the other party enraged him and he found an excuse, he took the chance to act directly.

Of course, he was aware that this might cause some trouble.

But, fortunately, he acted swiftly without causing too much disturbance. With Ye Chenbai’s help, the incident should not escalate too much.

Ye Chenbai looked down at Yagyu Takeo, whose eyes were still open in death, took a deep breath, and mustered a smile:

“Brother Chen is right. It was Yagyu Takeo who sought his own death. You can’t blame anyone else. I will look for a family elder to suppress this matter.”

“Brother Ye, did many people see Yagyu Takeo and the others enter Ascending Immortal Tower?” Chen Yuan suddenly asked with a probing look.

“Not many,” Ye Chenbai replied with a puzzled look at Chen Yuan, not understanding the implication of his words. Ascending Immortal Tower was not a place one simply walked into.

Besides the times of Immortal Battles, which allow the prodigies from the Hidden Dragon List to stay, it’s usually closed to the public. Even when open, only the lower three floors are accessible.

“This makes it simple then. What does the death of Yagyu Takeo have to do with me?” Chen Yuan’s mouth curved in a smirk, and with a casual wave of his hand, the bodies on the ground turned to ash in an instant.

Carried away by the wind to the outside world.

“That’s correct, Brother Chen was merely indulging in the practice of a Saber Technique just now,”

Zhang Xuan spoke in a grave tone.

“Who is Yagyu Takeo? I haven’t seen him,” Shangguan Yu said with a hearty laugh.

Ye Chenbai’s lips twitched. This time, he had witnessed Chen Yuan’s way of doing things. Without firm evidence, who could say Chuan Yuan had killed Yagyu Takeo?

Moreover, since Chen Yuan had struck only one blow and the noise wasn’t too loud, if he sought out a clan elder, this matter could be covered up and be over with.

Of course, this end only pertained to the rules of Martial Emperor City. The Yagyu Family would certainly learn how Yagyu Takeo and the others disappeared.

But when there are many lice, none can bite—making a few enemies for the sake of Qi Fortune was quite normal.

After all, they had already made enemies before.

“What you all said is true. We were merely drinking,” said Ye Chenbai, glancing around, then smiling.

“Indeed! Indeed!”

“Gentlemen, please wait a moment. I shall take care of some loose ends.”

“Brother Ye, thank you very much.”

“Don’t mention it. I’m still more than capable of handling such a small favor.”
