Chapter 682: Chapter 682_1

"You accuse me of killing your senior disciple, but do you have any evidence? Did you see it with your own eyes?" Su Chengyu said.

"Su Cheng is right, for such accusations, mere words without proof signifies nothing. You need evidence; otherwise, you cannot accuse him baselessly," He Lian Xuan said.

Xiang Yuesheng snorted coldly, "Su Cheng, don’t try to justify your action. In the four provinces of Longjiang, only you dare to confront my Black Dragon Commerce Association and possess the ability to kill my senior disciple! My other three disciples were all killed by you, you had the motive and ability to kill. Therefore, I conclude that the murderer must be you."

He Lian Xuan waved his hand dismissively, "Your assumptions and conjectures don’t suffice. What I want is clear evidence of Su Cheng’s murder. If you can present such evidence, we can continue the discussion. If you can’t even provide evidence, then there’s no need for further discussion."

He Lian Xuan’s tone was firm; he didn’t show any intention of giving face to Xiang Yuesheng.

Xiang Yuesheng’s face darkened, looking incredibly angry, "Is the Grand Minister determined to favor him?"

"With my people from the Dragon Soul, wouldn’t I favor them over you?" He Lian Xuan laughed coldly.

"Su Cheng! A real man should dare to do what he thinks. You dare to kill my disciple, but now you’re afraid to admit it? What kind of hero are you?" Xiang Yuesheng tried to provoke Su Chengyu.

Su Chengyu smiled faintly, "Even if I say I killed Deng Taihui, that can’t be taken as evidence. Xiang Yuesheng, your provocation is useless against me. Bring the evidence before bringing me to account."

Xiang Yuesheng couldn’t handle Su Chengyu, narrowing his eyes and glancing at Su Chengyu with murderous intent. He hissed, "Su Cheng, listen carefully, you are lucky today with the Grand Minister protecting you. But one day you will fall into my hands, and I believe that day won’t be far."

Su Chengyu countered, "I also have a desire. That is to destroy the Black Dragon Commerce Association, to eradicate you and your Black Dragon Commerce Association from the four provinces of Longjiang. I believe I will accomplish this soon."

Xiang Yuesheng burst into laughter, sneered, "Just you? That’s a daydream. We will see! Your life will belong to me sooner or later."

"All right, let’s wait and see who will prevail in the end." Su Chengyu said with determination.

Having said that, Xiang Yuesheng brushed his sleeves and left. But He Lian Xuan stopped him, "Hold on."

"Does the Grand Minister have any instructions?" Xiang Yuesheng said coldly.

"The Dragon Soul, isn’t a place you can come and go, kill as you please, is it?"

As the Grand Minister of the Eastern Dragon Soul, He Lian Xuan, although his strength wasn’t the best across the entire Xia Country, held a position equal to a senior government official. He was forced to confront Xiang Yuesheng, who dared to intrude in the Dragon Soul, both out of anger and to defend his reputation, as well as to secure the morale and authority of the Black Dragon Commerce Association.

As a senior official, He Lian Xuan also wanted to uphold his dignity. However, Xiang Yuesheng’s arrogance challenged him. After all, how could the Grand Minister let him leave with such impunity?

"What do you want? Do you want to fight to see who’s the winner?" Xiang Yuesheng said gloomily.

"You must apologize to me for your actions today." He Lian Xuan said.

"What if I refuse? Will the Grand Minister fight me? If we fight, the outcome is uncertain, and you might not be able to beat me."

Both being Half-Step Martial Saints, Xiang Yuesheng had a high self-esteem, how could he easily apologize? This is a matter of face and dignity.

"Although we are both Half-Step Martial Saints, indeed it is difficult to determine the winner. However, the people you brought here will not be able to leave the Dragon Soul alive. Let’s see whether you want to apologize or risk the lives of your men."

This move by He Lian Xuan was lethal. It put Xiang Yuesheng in a dilemma. He brought two Martial King Realm elders and a high-ranking Martial Marquis Realm from the Black Dragon Commerce Association. If these people die here, it would be a fatal blow to the Black Dragon Commerce Association, and would most likely undermine their morale, making it hard for people to serve the Black Dragon Commerce Association in the future.

Xiang Yuesheng was caught in He Lian Xuan’s trap and was forced to apologize.

Hearing He Lian Xuan’s threat, Xiang Yuesheng’s men instantly turned pale and became vigilant. Xiang Yuesheng’s face twitched a few times, and he said in a deep voice, "Grand Minister, we may not have much friendship, but is it worth tearing up our relationship over Su Cheng?"

"You rudely intruded Dragon Soul, disregarding my face, you’re the one who ruined our relationship. So you cannot blame me, Chairman Xiang. Make a choice, either your face or the lives of your men, my patience is limited. If you don’t choose, I’ll choose for you."

As expected, the authoritative demeanor of He Lian Xuan far exceeded that of Xiang Yuesheng, who is at the same realm level and heads a martial arts power. He had Xiang Yuesheng fully under control.

Xiang Yuesheng’s face was as gloomy as water. He knew He Lian Xuan was serious and not making a joke. He had to bow and say, "Grand Minister, I apologize."

"Insincere." He Lian Xuan said lightly.

Xiang Yuesheng’s face twitched, he bowed again and apologized. He Lian Xuan said, "I can’t hear you."

Xiang Yuesheng was instantly filled with anger; his chest was burning. He bowed again and said loudly, "Grand Minister, I’m sorry! I shouldn’t have barged into the Dragon Soul today and caused offense. I hope the Grand Minister will forgive me."

He Lian Xuan was finally satisfied. He waved his hand and said, "Leave. Xiang Yuesheng, remember, no matter how powerful your Black Dragon Commerce Association is, no matter how high your rank is, Dragon Soul is a vital national department. You are not qualified to be above it. If there is a next time, an apology won’t be enough, I will pursue the matter to the end."

Xiang Yuesheng dared not talk back, and left the Dragon Soul with a downcast expression. After returning to his carriage, he bit his teeth and cursed, "Well done, He Lian Xuan. I, Xiang Yuesheng, will remember today’s incident, and one day, I will make you pay."

Xiang Yuesheng made a mistake this time. He thought since he couldn’t kill Su Chengyu, even if they confront each other, He Lian Xuan would not embarrass him out of consideration for them being of the same Half-Step Martial Saint realm. This way, he could also regain his face.

He didn’t expect He Lian Xuan to be so disrespectful, which led him not gaining any advantage but instead getting a lesson from He Lian Xuan, making him furious as he reminisced.

Inside the Dragon Soul, Su Chengyu immediately thanked them, "Thank you both, Grand Ministers, for your help."

"You are a member of the Dragon Soul, I naturally have to take care of you. If you didn’t have the badge of Dragon Soul, I would never have meddled. Later, come to my courtyard. I have some things to ask you," He Lian Xuan said.

"Yes, sir. Grand Minister, it’s audacious of Xiang Yuesheng to forcefully enter the Dragon Soul and kill people. If this gets out, it might damage the reputation of the Dragon Soul."

Su Chengyu knew it was the Great Space Master Yin Huan from Jiangnan who let the intruder in on purpose. He could tell He Lian Xuan appreciated him and held him in high regard. Since Yin Huan was planning against him, he also wanted to add fuel to the fire against Yin Huan.

Su Cheng had a retributive personality. If you plot against him, he wouldn’t let you off either.
