Chapter 523: Chapter 520: Young Girl Zhang Yan! [Second Update]

Philippines, National Master Mansion:

This is the residence of Zhang Hong, the master of Dragon Hall, where major national decisions are made.

In the past, this place enjoyed boundless glory, even the doorkeepers felt themselves a cut above the rest.

But now, the situation is completely the opposite.

Dragon Hall Demon King Zhang Xiaolin, Master Zhang Hong, along with two deputy hall masters, elders, and several deacons, were all slain overnight by a demonic young man known as Immortal Master Li. It could be said that the entire Dragon Hall was uprooted.

In order to vent the suppressed hostility and to clarify his stance to Immortal Master Li, King Philip III immediately ordered the arrest of all Dragon Hall members and their families.

Zhang Hong, being the current master of Dragon Hall, naturally had his family members specifically looked after.

"You all hurry up, Immortal Master Li will be here soon. If you delay the grand arrival of the Immortal Master, your entire Zhang Family can wait to be raided and annihilated!"

Royal Guard Captain Heu Lu, swinging his whip in hand, made the air whistle, his face full of arrogance and pride.

"What are you doing, this is our home, by what right do you barge in?"

The speaker was a stunningly beautiful and pure little girl.

Her name is Zhang Yan, Zhang Hong’s granddaughter, who just turned fourteen today. Loved dearly by the family for her innocent looks and sheer beauty, even a royal princess would not hold a position as esteemed as hers.

Last year, King Philip III came to the National Master Mansion to propose that the eldest prince marry Zhang Yan.

But Zhang Hong flatly refused, saying the eldest prince was not worthy of his granddaughter, and told the Royal Family to bury their hopes, as the ugly toad shouldn’t dream of eating swan meat.

However, this beautiful swan, once a Heavenly Pride Girl, has now plummeted into a Cinderella.

And she is even less fortunate than Cinderella, who at least did not worry about her life.

"Young Miss, do you still think you’re the granddaughter of the State Preceptor? Let me tell you frankly, you are now less than a commoner, but a slave, a person without any status or dignity, to be trampled upon and be toyed with by others!"

As he spoke, Heu Lu’s shifty eyes were constantly fixed on Zhang Yan’s developing body, and he rudely swallowed a couple of times.

"Someone, take this slave to my room. Tonight, I will thoroughly discipline her!"

Hearing Heu Lu’s words, Zhang Yan’s face turned pale with fear and she quickly hid in her own embrace.

Zhang Yan’s father stepped forward to stop him: "Heu Lu, how audacious, do you know what you are doing?"

But before he could finish his words, Heu Lu lashed out fiercely with his whip.

"Third Young Master, you’re now a slave, yet you dare command me around. Aren’t you afraid of angering Immortal Master Li, leading to your family being raided and annihilated?"

Upon hearing Heu Lu’s words, the people of the Zhang Family were immediately dismayed.

For them, Immortal Master Li was a nightmarish existence.

It was said that with his own strength, he took on a hundred thousand-strong army, annihilating the entire Dragon Hall. A Killing God who would destroy cities and exterminate families at the slightest disagreement.

Seeing the horrified expressions of the Zhang Family, Heu Lu became even more triumphant.

He shoved Zhang Yan’s father to the ground and forcefully snatched her away.

Zhang Yan looked terrified, tears streaming down her face. But as a fragile fourteen-year-old girl, how could she possibly escape from a robust man like Heu Lu?

Heu Lu rudely pinched Zhang Yan’s delicate cheeks, unable to resist a triumphant laugh.

"This face, this skin is so tender you could squeeze water out of it. Ha ha, I never thought I, Heu Lu, would have such a day!"

Thinking of the granddaughter of the high and mighty State Preceptor soon becoming an object of his possession, Heu Lu laughed out loud in delight.

But before he could finish, a cold voice suddenly approached from the darkness.

"Release her!"

The crowd was shocked, and they all turned to look.

The newcomer was a slender, fair-skinned youth.

"Who are you to meddle in my business?" He Lu’s face darkened as he angrily shouted.

"Heh, you commit evils under my name, and yet you dare ask who I am?"

Before his words had even landed, a sword shadow struck down from mid-air.

"Pfft!"

The hand that He Lu was using to hold a whip was ruthlessly chopped off, blood splashing everywhere.

Zhang Yan was terrified by this bloody scene, her vision darkened, and she fell.

However, she did not hit the ground, but was caught and embraced by a broad, strong hand.

He Lu now recognized that the young man before him was the infamous Immortal Master Li, and shivered in fear, quickly kneeling down and begging for his life.

The other Royal Palace Guards also knelt down one by one, not daring to look directly at the newcomer.

Li Chen did not even bother to glance at them, but gently pinched Zhang Yan’s philtrum.

Zhang Yan slowly opened her eyes, and the figure that entered her sight was a graceful and elegant young man. His deep and bright eyes, and the devilish smile at the corner of his mouth, matched perfectly with the Prince Charming she had imagined.

However, as she fully regained consciousness and saw everyone kneeling, her heart suddenly sank.

The youth before her was Immortal Master Li, who killed her grandfather and destroyed the entire Dragon Hall!

"Are you alright?"

Li Chen asked softly as he saw her awaken.

Zhang Yan opened her mouth, but ultimately couldn’t utter a word, merely shaking her head gently.

Li Chen handed her over to Mei Ruohua behind him, then turned and walked towards He Lu, coldly asking, "What is going on?"

Trembling, He Lu replied, "To answer Immortal Master Li, they are all relatives of the former State Preceptor Zhang Hong. You executed the traitor Zhang Hong, and I was worried they would harbor discontent and pose a threat to you, so I..."

"So you used my name to commit crimes, right?"

Li Chen cut him off with a cold question.

He Lu was so terrified that he kept kowtowing until his forehead bled.

"I dare not, dare not, I only feared they might harbor ill intentions towards you, Immortal Master!"

Li Chen smiled coldly and said, "Demon King, State Preceptor, Divine Master, all were killed by me. Whoever wants revenge, as long as they have the strength, bring it on, and I’ll be waiting!"

He Lu wanted to speak, but just as he opened his mouth, his head was penetrated by a sword shadow, and the blood flowed ceaselessly.

"Anyone else who uses my name to commit evil, this will be their end!"

After saying this, Li Chen looked around, and seeing no one responding, he strode into the National Master Mansion.

Everyone was too scared to lift their heads to face his imposing figure.

Zhang Yan bravely looked up at Li Chen, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

Mei Ruohua glanced at her, expressionlessly said, "Come with me!"

Zhang Yan didn’t dare to resist, gave another look at her parents, and then carefully followed.
