Chapter 246: Chapter 246: A Killing Punch
Feng Qiu glared at his opponent and said, "What, you’re allowed to make a move, but I’m not? Chen Jizong, if you do not wish for a fight to the death, get out of here now!"
Chen Jizong was stunned, his eyes wide open as he said, "Are you willing to fight me to the death over a young man?"
Feng Qiu said without hesitation, "That’s right!"
Another powerful member of the Murong Family was also shocked. Was Feng Qiu really ready to fight to the death with them over an outsider? Had he lost his mind?
Murong Qingfeng’s gaze stalled, his face full of disbelief.
He realized that Murong Mingyue was also looking angrily at Chen Jizong, with no intention of stopping Feng Qiu.
Then, he turned to look at Qin Chuan and saw that he was calm, with not a trace of fear facing an Energizing Skill Grandmaster.
How could this be possible?
Could it be that the other party was the heir to some major family?
As the eldest young master of the Murong Family, he knew every one of Yandu’s major family heirs, but he had never seen a major family heir like Qin Chuan.
He remembered that Murong Mingyue had just addressed the other party as "Mr. Qin," but there was no major family in Yandu with the Qin surname.
Could it be he was a major family heir from another place?
Even so, it was impossible for Murong Mingyue to lower her status to please him, right?
For a moment, Murong Qingfeng felt his brain cells might not be enough to process this.
Chen Jizong suddenly turned to look at Murong Mingyue and asked angrily, "Miss, is this also your wish?"
Murong Mingyue spoke with a cold face, "Elder Chen, Elder Huang, I respect you as Grandmaster Experts, but if you intend to use force against Mr. Qin, you will have to step over my dead body!"
"You..."
Chen Jizong was furious.
Elder Huang spoke in a deep voice, "Miss, you should be very clear about the crisis it will bring to our family once the news of the Family Head’s death gets out."
"Are you not afraid that he will leak the news by protecting an outsider like this?"
Murong Mingyue scoffed, "Mr. Qin would not stoop to doing such a thing."
Elder Huang pressed on, "What if?"
Murong Mingyue said coldly, "If Mr. Qin really does leak this, I will bear all the consequences!"
Elder Huang pressed further, "Can you bear it?"
Murong Mingyue’s gaze turned icy, "Then what would you have me do?"
Elder Huang’s face suddenly revealed a smug smile and said, "If the news leaks, then I would ask the miss to agree to a marriage alliance with the Long Family!"
The Long Family, one of the Nine Gates of Yandu, had the shallowest roots but ranked just below the Ye Family in overall strength.
The Long Family was said to have shallow roots because it only took them a mere twenty years to rise.
Upon hearing Elder Huang’s words, Murong Mingyue’s expression grew utterly dark, and she laughed in extreme anger, "When did a dog of the family gain the right to decide its master’s marriage affairs?"
Her words sent a shock through the crowd!
At this moment, Murong Mingyue exuded the authority of a superior, like a high queen looking down upon the masses.
Elder Huang was stunned for a moment and then suddenly became enraged, "Are you calling me a dog?"
Murong Mingyue looked at him coldly and said, "Huang Wu, have you forgotten who saved your life twenty years ago, and who brought you back to the Murong Family?"
Huang Wu was instantly at a loss for words, his face extremely ugly.
Murong Mingyue continued, "Back then, who was it that pleaded to acknowledge my father as his master?"
"You..."
Huang Wu was filled with rage, his eyes full of intense killing intent.
"After my father’s death, who betrayed his promise, not only failing to protect me as promised but also switching allegiance to my third uncle at the earliest opportunity?"
"Now, once again, you want to force me to be the sacrificial lamb in a family marriage alliance?"
"Huang Wu, is this how you repay my father for saving your life?"
Mingyue’s consecutive questions made Huang Wu’s expression sink to an extremely grim state.
A terrifying murderous intent began to emanate from Huang Wu’s body.
Feng Qiu’s feet moved, and he immediately positioned himself in front of Mingyue, his face filled with wariness as he looked toward Huang Wu and rebuked, "Huang Wu, what do you think you’re doing?"
Chen Jizong was somewhat taken aback; although he had been rude to Mingyue, he had never thought of laying a hand on her.
But now, he could feel the murderous intent Huang Wu had toward Mingyue; it was almost at its peak.
"Hmph!"
Mingyue suddenly let out a sneer, "What? You want to kill me now?"
"Huang Wu, oh Huang Wu, you have been with the Murong Family for twenty years; how do you still not understand?"
"A dog must realize its place! You want to kill me, but do you dare?"
"Even if my grandfather is dead and no one is there to protect me, just by my surname, Murong, I could marry into any of the Nine Gates of Yandu."
"Do you think my third uncle would allow you to kill such a profitable sacrificial piece for the family?"
Huang Wu bowed his head, not saying a word, his body radiating a terrifying murderous intent.
Chen Jizong said with a tense face, "Huang Wu, don’t make a grave mistake!"
Murong Qingfeng also hurriedly said, "Elder Huang, Mingyue is just talking nonsense; don’t listen to her."
After speaking, he turned to Mingyue and angrily said, "Mingyue, aren’t you going to apologize to Elder Huang?"
As he spoke, he kept making meaningful glances at Mingyue.
Huang Wu was his father’s man; if Huang Wu killed Mingyue, the other factions of the family would surely take the opportunity to make things difficult for Murong Jing.
By then, it would be much harder for Murong Jing to succeed as the family head.
Feng Qiu was surging with a fighting spirit, ready to enter battle at any moment.
Mingyue had also lost her patience, venting the anger that was pent up in her heart, but now she had calmed down.
Feeling the murderous intent from Huang Wu, she also felt a bit more frightened.
Suddenly, Feng Qiu said, "Miss, don’t keep Mr. Qin waiting too long; please go ahead!"
Mingyue took one deep look at Huang Wu and then approached Qin Chuan, "Mr. Qin, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting; let us leave now!"
Qin Chuan didn’t speak a word, simply turning around to leave, with Mingyue hurriedly following him.
Chen Jizong no longer tried to stop them, fearing he would provoke Huang Wu.
Just then, Huang Wu suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashing with a crazed killing intent, staring at the direction where Mingyue was leaving, grinding his teeth, he said, "I don’t dare to kill you, do I not dare to kill those around you?"
"It seems that kid is very important to you, isn’t he? If he dies, you would be extremely sad and sorrowful, right?"
Chen Jizong didn’t catch what Huang Wu muttered under his breath, but he sensed his almost tangible murderous intent and quickly shouted, "Huang Wu, calm down!"
Feng Qiu’s expression changed dramatically, and he yelled, "Huang Wu, you wouldn’t dare!"
Almost reflexively, he stood in front of Huang Wu.
Suddenly, a surge of power far exceeding the Energizing Skill Middle Stage Realm burst forth from Huang Wu’s body.
"Get lost!"
With Huang Wu’s loud shout, his palm struck Feng Qiu’s chest.
All of this happened in a flash; Feng Qiu was sent flying out, vomiting blood, while Chen Jizong and Murong Qingfeng were only just coming back to their senses.
At this moment, Huang Wu had already charged behind Qin Chuan, his hand clenched into a deadly fist that he ferociously smashed out.
