Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Stone Sword Edge Defeated_1

"Summon everyone immediately from the department to assemble. Arrest anyone who dares to force their way through!"

With Stone Sword Edge’s order, the people of Lin Jiang’s Dragon Soul department gathered, though their overall strength was weaker than Qi Yue’s side, they had the upper hand in numbers.

"Stone Sword Edge, you’re insane! Is Su Chengyu your real father or your son, is he worth you shielding him this way?"

Qi Yue squinted his eyes, angrily pointing an accusing finger.

"Enough of your nonsense, you can’t touch him! Even if Luo Yijie comes personally, my words stand!" Stone Sword Edge replied, clenching his fists.

"Good! Very good! Let’s see if your strength has improved over these years!"

Qi Yue raised his hand, voicing sternly, "I’m ordered to arrest Su Chengyu. Anyone who dares to obstruct will be killed without mercy!"

Qi Yue was more ruthless than Stone Sword Edge, directly ordering executions, causing some hesitation for Stone Sword Edge, and a battle ensued between the two parties.

Stone Sword Edge was the first to engage with Qi Yue. Both were Fifth Grade Masters, their fists clashed creating a wave of transcendent force accompanied by an explosive sound.

Qi Yue’s subordinated chief minister Sikou was facing off four chief minister Ma under Stone Sword Edge without being at a disadvantage, while the other two under Qi Yue were both First Class Masters and easily handled other Si Masters.

In no time, the fifteen Si Masters in the department were all injured and out of the fight. Thankfully, Qi Yue’s men didn’t intend to kill them, merely injuring them.

The four chief ministers Ma facing the a second-grade grandmaster, Chief minister Sikou, had no advantage either. Two chief ministers Ma had been injured and were lying on the ground wailing, the remaining two couldn’t withstand more than a few moves.

The exchange between Stone Sword Edge and Qi Yue was fierce, the ordinary eyes could only catch the afterimages left behind, with the sound of explosions resounding over and over, fists and feet crashing into each other.

But it was obvious that Stone Sword Edge was not Qi Yue’s opponent.

Boom!

Stone Sword Edge was forced to retreat after receiving a palm from Qi Yue, with traces of blood at the corner of his mouth and his face pale.

"Brother Stone, it appears that you have been stagnating over these years! Back in the day, when you reached the realm of Fifth Grade, I was merely a Third Rank Grandmaster. These years, I progressed at a rapid pace, while you were complacent, and you are no longer my opponent."

Qi Yue was younger and more talented than Stone Sword Edge. As a Fifth Grade Master, he could defeat Stone Sword Edge, making him appear condescendingly mocking.

Stone Sword Edge wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Qi Yue was indeed not his opponent since he practiced the profound martial arts within the Dragon Soul department.

This only made Stone Sword Edge more determined to follow Su Chengyu, otherwise, he would gradually be replaced in the Dragon Soul department.

"I advise you to know your place. You could be a Grand Marshal for a few more years, otherwise, there will be people to replace you. Don’t think too highly of yourself and deign to such self-humiliation."

Having said that, Qi Yue headed towards the iron gate. Stone Sword Edge took a long breath and said, "I haven’t fallen yet."

"Stone Sword Edge, you’re courting death! Let me see how you’re going to stop me!"

Qi Yue raised his hand and pointed at Stone Sword Edge, a chilling light flashing in his eyes. Stone Sword Edge’s internal strength surged, once again engaging with Qi Yue.

Qi Yue’s subordinates had injured all of Stone Sword Edge’s subordinates, watching the battle from the sidelines. Chief minister Sikou kicked one of Stone Sword Edge’s chief minister Ma and said, "Ignorant fools daring to oppose us, provincial-level Dragon Soul Department. Such a useless Grand Marshal can only lead such a useless group of subordinates!"

All the people of the Lin Jiang Dragon Soul department were injured. Facing these taunts and insults, though they were filled with fury, they could only swallow their words.

Who made them the provincial Dragon Soul department, who made them so powerful? Unable to defeat them, they just had to bear with it, suppressing a breath of grievance in their hearts.

"I really don’t understand, why does the Grand Marshal insist on protecting Su Chengyu, and oppose the higher-ups, isn’t this courting death?"

Stone Sword Edge’s subordinate couldn’t help but grumble.

"Yes! By offending the higher department, I’m afraid we can’t keep our jobs." Two Chief ministers Ma expressed extreme dissatisfaction.

Stone Sword Edge’s wrist was clamped by Qi Yue and twisted, a snap was heard. His right hand was broken, followed by two punches landing on him, he flew more than ten meters away and fell to the ground, vomiting fresh blood.

Stone Sword Edge’s arm broke, and he was gravely injured, already without any more strength to fight.

The two Chief ministers Ma quickly went to help Stone Sword Edge, their hearts full of terror. They had never seen Stone Sword Edge so severely injured; after all, Stone Sword Edge was always the powerful one in Lin Jiang.

"Lord Sikou is heroic!"

"Some people are simply ignorant and dare to fight Lord Sikou."

Qi Yue patted his palms, and the corners of his lips raised slightly, "Stone Sword Edge, you’re too weak! Today, I taught you a lesson by breaking one of your arms! From now on, you are no longer qualified to be a Grand Marshal. In the Lin Jiang Dragon Soul Department, all of you are useless!"

"Wait till I get back, I’ll report to Shangfeng, and have all you useless people be expelled. Lin Jiang’s Dragon Soul Department should be replaced! This is the consequence of blindly following Stone Sword Edge!"

Everyone bowed their heads, suppressing their anger and resentment. Stone Sword Edge also knew that he had been screwed; not only did he lose people’s hearts, broke an arm, but also had a miserable defeat!

Moreover, once Su Chengyu was caught, it would mean that he had lost all his bets, completely lost!

Although Stone Sword Edge was unwilling, but now he could do nothing, he looked up hard at the safehouse, and thought, "Su Chengyu, I have tried my best. where it will lead to life or death, it’s up to you."

With a sigh in his heart, Stone Sword Edge, unable to stop them, watched helplessly as Qi Yue’s chief minister Sikou and his team pushed open the iron gate and walked to the safehouse.

"Grand Marshal, to say something you won’t like to hear, why should we protect Su Chengyu? He’s not from the Dragon Soul Department. Now we’re all screwed because of him." a Chief minister Ma sighed.

"I’m the one who has caused you harm, I shouldn’t have dragged you into this. Even if I lose my official hat, I would still try my best to keep your jobs."

Having said that, Stone Sword Edge coughed violently and vomited more blood.

Qi Yue wore a scorning smirk and said, "Stone Sword Edge, I’ve always wondered why you helped Su Chengyu that much? What’s in it for you? I know you well enough that you only look out for your own benefits. I’m curious, what benefits Su Chengyu, a nobody, could offer to make you put in so much effort?"

Stone Sword Edge glared at Qi Yue, "I do as I please, and it’s none of your business!"

"You sure have a tough mouth, so I’ll break your other hand to see if you still dare to talk back!"

Confident with his backing from Chief minister, Qi Yue didn’t pay much heed to Stone Sword Edge. Although Stone Sword Edge also had backings, they weren’t strong enough.

Qi Yue walked towards Stone Sword Edge, the people from Dragon Soul department stepped aside in fear, none daring or had the strength to obstruct.

Stone Sword Edge bellowed, "Qi Yue, don’t push it too far!"

"What if I did? Do you still expect Su Chengyu to help you?" Qi Yue sneered.
