Chapter 336 - 326: There is No Cure for Regret in the World

Chapter 336: Chapter 326: There is No Cure for Regret in the World

At that moment, tensions were high, and both sides were on edge.

The hall master of Dragon Hunting Hall, an old man over sixty who was still taking young brides, had a particularly cold gaze.

"On my joyous day, you dare to come here seeking death. It’s perfect, killing you will add to the festivities."

The old hall master was filled with murderous intent.

"This little woman of yours isn’t bad. After you die, I’ll take good care of her."

While Long Chen spoke, he gently motioned with his hand.

"Ah."

In an instant, the young and beautiful girl uncontrollably moved to Long Chen’s side.

Holding her waist, Long Chen smiled lightly and said, "My dear, quite pleasant."

"You’re courting death, kill him, everyone attack, spare no effort, kill him!"

The old hall master exploded with rage, his anger flaring up.

"Kill."

Immediately, the surrounding martial arts experts all erupted, charging towards Long Chen.

"The hunt begins."

Long Chen pushed the bride away and was engulfed by the crowd.

To any onlooker, it seemed Long Chen was about to be beaten to death.

But the reality was different.

Long Chen casually executed a set of Shaolin Arhat Fist, using his Spiritual Power to enhance the power of the technique to its peak.

Bang.

With a casual punch, Long Chen blasted a member of Dragon Hunting Hall completely apart.

With the first man down, Long Chen’s massacre began.

A master from the Cultivation World entering a group of martial artists was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.

Bang, bang, bang...

A series of dull sounds echoed continuously.

With every sound, someone was inevitably killed.

This group of once invincible martial artists fell like insects beneath Li Xiu’s fists, utterly powerless to resist.

In less than three minutes, everyone at the scene, except for the old hall master, a few women, and some children, were down.

And Long Chen looked as if his clothes were untouched, completely at ease.

It seemed like a simple matter, but the core strength of Dragon Hunting Hall had been annihilated.

"You all, come here, continue, attack him."

The old hall master yelled.

However, from afar, the lackeys of Dragon Hunting Hall looked at each other, none willing to step forward.

Who wasn’t afraid of death?

Everyone was afraid of death.

Dragon Hunting Hall wasn’t powerful enough to make all its members willing to fight to the death.

"It looks like you have no one left to use."

Long Chen spoke coldly.

"You... are you forcing me into a corner? Long Chen, you should know, Dragon Hunting Hall and the Heavenly God Temple have established a deep cooperative relationship. If you continue to target Dragon Hunting Hall today, the Heavenly God Temple will not let you go," the old hall master shouted.

"Pretending to be a tiger with borrowed authority. Find a power I actually respect. What is Heavenly God Temple? Insignificant."

Long Chen said disdainfully.

"You dare say Heavenly God Temple is insignificant? Who... who exactly are you?"

The old hall master’s speech began to stammer.

"You don’t need to know who I am. You just need to know that I am the one who will escort you to the afterlife," Long Chen said as he walked forward step by step.

The old hall master, scared, stepped back step by step, his face ashen.

From Long Chen’s previous combat ability, he knew that an existence like Long Chen was not someone he could contend with.

Once they fought, there would be no chance of victory.

Perhaps, not even a slight one.

Seeing that Long Chen was about to make his move, the old hall master hurriedly said, "Long Chen, I admit defeat, I apologize for all the things I’ve done against you in the past."

"Isn’t it too late?" Long Chen said coldly. "I know that you still dare to trouble me not just because of Heavenly God Temple, but also Yan Yiqiu isn’t that right? Yan Yiqiu’s son was slain by me, and somebody like Yan wouldn’t stand losing face, would he?

And therefore, Dragon Hunting Hall just naturally turned into Yan’s weapon, right?"

"Yes, you are absolutely right. Everything was directed by Yan... There’s a specific culprit, you can’t strike down Dragon Hunting Hall."

The old hall master trembled all over.

The remaining people of Dragon Hunting Hall were astonished by their hall master’s current demeanor.

In their eyes, the old hall master was like a god.

But now, he was like a trembling dog, a dog terrified to its core.

"Mr. Long, I have a request."

At this moment, the bride suddenly spoke up.

"Oh, do you want to ask me to spare him?" Long Chen asked lightly.

As the bride opened her mouth to speak, the old hall master quickly said, "Brother Long, this bride, I have just brought her in and have not touched her yet. If you like, you can take her with you... I hope that the resentment between us can be erased just like that.

Of course, apart from her, I can also offer treasures to resolve our vendetta."

Upon hearing this, the bride wasn’t surprised at all.

She didn’t look at the old hall master; instead, she knelt before Long Chen and said solemnly, "Mr. Long, I beg you to kill this old monster quickly, and give him and those nearby who dare not approach no chance at all.

Because they are all beasts; they have captured many women from outside, and many young girls, all of whom have fallen victim to their brutality.

The reason I am still alive is because I caught the eye of this old beast, and that’s why I’ve survived to this moment."

"Is there such a thing?"

Long Chen’s murderous aura suddenly intensified.

"I speak the truth with every sentence. If there’s a half lie, my entire family would die."

The bride yelled, her eyes red with agitation.

Upon hearing this, the old Hall Master’s face turned ashen with rage. He raised his hand, about to kill the bride.

Long Chen raised his hand and brought it down with a chop.

Crack.

The old Hall Master’s arm was immediately severed, rendering him incapable of fighting.

Long Chen took a deep breath and said sternly, "I had suspected that Dragon Hunting Hall would commit evil acts, but I truly did not expect you to do something so vile and atrocious that it truly merits death."

"Brother Long Chen, I regret it now, truly regret it. I shouldn’t have gone against you.

But those were just some lowly women. If you’re willing to reconcile, I’ll offer up everything from Dragon Hunting Hall with both hands, truly, everything."

The old Hall Master’s voice trembled.

"There is no medicine for regret in this world. Go down and repent."

Long Chen didn’t want to waste words anymore, he picked up a knife from the ground and ferociously chopped towards the Hall Master of Dragon Hunting Hall.

The old Hall Master instinctively resisted, activating his True Qi.

But his Martial Arts Cultivation was no match in Long Chen’s eyes, as meager as a weak chicken.

Szwip.

Long Chen’s blade ruthlessly fell and split him into two.

Seeing the Hall Master dead, people around tried to flee.

Had Long Chen been unaware of what Dragon Hunting Hall did, he might not have slaughtered them all and would have spared those who dared not approach.

But knowing the truth, Long Chen did not want to spare anybody.

These people, they all deserved to die, must die!

Long Chen, holding his blade, charged forward.

Screams and moans of agony immediately filled the area.

Twenty minutes later, all fell silent.

Long Chen returned to where he started and stared at the few remaining women and children.

The women panicked, quickly kneeling to beg for mercy.

"What about the women who were captured?"

Long Chen asked sternly.

"Mr. Long, after they were defiled, they were all killed by them because they feared their deeds becoming known," the bride said.

"What role did these several women have in the Dragon Hunting Hall?" Long Chen asked again.

"They were all the old Hall Master’s concubines, also captured and forced to bear children, but they did not commit the vile acts."

"Fine, all of you may leave on your own, I won’t kill you."

After saying this, Long Chen left alone.

But the bride followed behind Long Chen, unwilling to leave on her own.

Long Chen frowned and turned to the bride, "Why are you following me?"

"Mr. Long, my name is Zhou Mei. You said before that you would take care of me. If you don’t mind, I could follow you and serve you in the future. I know you’re extraordinary, but I’m willing to be your maid, because I think you’re a good man. Also, it would allow me to repay your kindness for saving my life," Zhou Mei spoke softly.

"I saved you not to have you as my maid, nor did I think about saving you or others. It was just a matter of convenience, so you don’t need to thank me. Just go home—your family must be worried about you," Long Chen said gently.

"But you did save me," Zhou Mei bit her red lips and said, "Mr. Long, you are my savior, I’m willing to do anything for you, as long as you don’t despise me."

"Where is your home?" Long Chen asked.

"In Imperial City."

"Mm, I’ll take you to Imperial City then. As for repaying me, you can treat me to a meal there and we’ll call it even. Don’t bring this topic up again, I dislike hearing about it," Long Chen spoke with a gentle tone.

"Okay...okay."

Zhou Mei appeared somewhat disheartened.

She truly wanted to follow this young, handsome, and powerful man.

But Zhou Mei knew she wasn’t worthy of him; it was all but a fantasy.

Half a day later, Long Chen accompanied Zhou Mei back to Imperial City.

As promised, Zhou Mei treated Long Chen to a big meal, yet he ended up paying since Zhou Mei’s cell phone and wallet had been destroyed by the people of Dragon Hunting Hall.

After the meal, Long Chen also paid for a taxi for Zhou Mei, giving her money to take the cab home.

"Mr. Long, I’m... really embarrassed. I forgot that I had neither a cell phone nor cash, sorry. I promised to treat you, but ended up having you not only pay for the meal but also for my cab," Zhou Mei said awkwardly, wishing she could just disappear.

Long Chen smiled and replied, "These are trifles. The intention counts. From now on, take care of yourself when going out. It’s lucky you escaped Dragon Hunting Hall. Remember, don’t tell anyone about what happened there. Let’s part here, and if fate allows, we’ll meet again."

Waving his hand, Long Chen walked away.

Zhou Mei opened her mouth as if to speak, but no words came out. Watching Long Chen’s departing figure, she couldn’t take her eyes off him for a long time.

"Miss, are you leaving or not?"

The taxi driver grew impatient.

"Coming...right away."

Zhou Mei finally withdrew her gaze and got into the taxi.

"Miss, no offense, but looking at your attire, it seems you were going to get married, right? On such an important day, how could you afford to meet another man?"

"Uncle, you misunderstood. I was filming and had an emergency, couldn’t change my clothes in time," Zhou Mei explained.

"Oh, that makes sense. But that man just now, his appearance and aura, truly outstanding. Rare to see such a person—much better looking than those effeminate celebrities," the driver laughed.

"He is indeed very outstanding, outstanding enough to make one feel sullying," Zhou Mei murmured.
