Chapter 233
Ta!
Ta!
Ta!
Xiao Chen walked with heavy steps towards the Qian Clan’s entrance. He didn’t release his God’s Gift. His eyes were still blood red, and his aura was violent. The icy killing aura was like a bone-chilling gale that swept towards the hundreds of people in front of him. It instantly enveloped everyone, freezing their hearts, and it was extremely domineering.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Both sides sensed a powerful warrior with a murderous aura approaching them, and their heated minds calmed down quite a bit. Curious, the two sides stopped fighting at the same time and retreated to the side, forming two distinct groups. On one side were the poor warriors led by Zhang Guolao, and on the other side were the Qian family led by the second elder of the Qian family. Hundreds of people all looked in the direction where Xiao Chen had appeared.
“Clan Head!
Let go of my Clan Head! ”
The second elder of the Qian family, Qian Daan, immediately saw Qian Yiwan being dragged by Xiao Chen. His heart was filled with shock as he roared in rage. He glared at Xiao Chen with a murderous look in his eyes, and brandished the long saber in his hand as he charged at Xiao Chen.
Swish!
When Zhang Guo Lao saw that Xiao Chen really took care of Qian Yiwan, he didn’t look surprised. When he saw Qian Daan charging at Xiao Chen, he flashed and blocked in front of Qian Daan. The Dog Beating Stick was aimed at Qian Daan’s mouth. At the same time, he said with disdain, “Who do you think you are?
Are you worthy to be my Young Master’s opponent? ”
“Eh …”
Qian Daan was only at the third stage of the Blood Bear Realm and wasn’t a match for Zhang Guo Lao. When he saw the Dog Beating Stick coming at him, he stopped and retreated crazily. He only stopped when his back bumped into the Qian Clan members behind him. He looked at the terrifying old man in front of him with fear and didn’t dare to be presumptuous anymore.
The Qian Clan’s Grand Elder’s fate was unknown, and the Qian Clan’s Third Elder’s throat was pierced by a sharp weapon. These were all done by Zhang Guo Lao. How could Qian Daan not be afraid of Zhang Guo Lao?
Zhang Guo Lao intimidated Qian Daan and didn’t continue to attack him. Instead, he turned to face Xiao Chen and revealed a bright smile. He said with admiration, “Young Master Xiao Chen is so powerful. You easily took down the Qian Clan Head. This old man is impressed!”
“Go!”
Xiao Chen didn’t bother about Zhang Guo Lao’s flattery. He swung his left hand forward and threw the pig-like Qian Yibi to Qian Daan. He then looked at the confused Qian Daan and said coldly, “Your Clan Head’s life is worth one million taels of purple gold. In addition to the one million taels of compensation, it is a total of two million taels of purple gold. I give you fifteen minutes to collect the purple gold notes. Otherwise … I will have no choice but to start a massacre!”
Hiss!
When Qian Daan heard Xiao Chen’s request, he couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air. Two million taels of purple gold was almost all of the Qian Clan’s savings. Of course, it didn’t include the value of the Qian Clan’s businesses. Of course, he felt heartache, but he understood that the Qian Clan’s power was already gone. If they didn’t take out two million taels of purple gold, the Qian Clan would be annihilated after thirty minutes.
What’s the use of money if you’re dead?
After thinking it through, Qian Daan passed the Qian Yibi to a Qian Clan’s expert beside him to take care of. He then quickly ran into the Qian Clan’s entrance with a dejected expression.
The scene quieted down for a moment. Apart from the occasional howls from the injured people on the ground, no one spoke. No one dared to speak either. All eyes were on Xiao Chen, who was standing in the center of the Qian Clan’s entrance. Xiao Chen instantly became the focal point of everyone.
Xiao Chen didn’t feel any discomfort when he was being watched by hundreds or thousands of eyes. He simply ignored all those eyes. Right now, the blood red color in his eyes had already faded. It was obvious that he had canceled the release of the Demonic Divine Bestowment. Xiao Chen’s senses were extremely powerful, and almost no one could sneak an attack on him. Hence, he canceled the Demonic Divine Bestowment when facing his enemies.
Zhang Guo Lao saw that Xiao Chen was ignoring him, but he wasn’t angry. He smiled and stood three meters away from Xiao Chen. He didn’t dare to stand too close. Firstly, he was afraid of causing misunderstandings from Xiao Chen. Secondly, Xiao Chen’s aura was too cold. He couldn’t stand it, so he naturally had to stand further away.
When the spectators heard Xiao Chen’s sky-high compensation, they were speechless and extremely jealous. Two hundred taels of purple gold was an amount that ordinary people wouldn’t be able to spend in a few lifetimes. Yet, after Xiao Chen fought, he could obtain it with just one sentence. This was simply daylight robbery.
The Qian Clan was completely ruined. The Clan Leader was crippled, the Great Elder was seriously injured, the Third Elder was dead, and the Fourth Elder was seriously injured. Only the Second Elder could still stand. As for the other experts of the Qian Clan, they had lost nearly half of the hundreds of people.
This time, the Qian Clan suffered a great loss. Even if the few Elders who were still alive could recover, the Qian Clan Leader had already become a cripple. Today, the Qian Clan had lost a Purple Image Realm God Bestowment Warrior, and their overall strength had plummeted. Coupled with the huge compensation of two million purple gold, the Qian Clan was likely to be reduced to a second-rate clan in Long Yao City. They would be removed from the six major clans in Long Yao City. This was entirely possible.
Soon, half an incense stick of time had passed. Qian Daan held twenty Purple Gold notes with a face value of one hundred thousand and hurriedly ran out of the Qian Clan’s house. When he was two feet away from Xiao Chen, he didn’t dare to go any closer. He said fearfully, “My Lord, these are Purple Gold notes with two million taels of purple gold. Take a look and see if they are correct.”
Xiao Chen didn’t step forward to take it, but looked at Zhang Guo Lao who was beside him. Zhang Guo Lao understood and stepped forward to grab the Purple Gold notes from Xiao Chen’s hand. He glanced at them and found that there were no problems, so he walked in front of Xiao Chen and handed all the Purple Gold notes to Xiao Chen. He grinned and said, “Young Master Xiao Chen, there is no problem with the amount. Do you accept it?”
Xiao Chen looked deeply at Zhang Guo Lao and felt that Zhang Guo Lao had no ill intentions towards him. So he reached out to take the ten Purple Gold notes and put them in his arms. He then turned and walked away without saying a word.
“Eh?”
Zhang Guo Lao saw that Xiao Chen took the money and left without saying a word. He was stunned. He brought Xiao Chen and walked for almost ten feet before he came to his senses. He hurriedly asked, “Young Master Xiao Chen, where are you going?
What should we do with the remaining one million taels of purple gold? ”
“The one million taels of purple gold are yours. Give the dead brothers a proper burial, and the injured brothers a bigger share. That’s all. As for where I am going, it has nothing to do with you. Farewell!”
When Xiao Chen heard Zhang Guo Lao’s question, he didn’t stop. He left behind these indifferent words and quickly left.
“This …”
Zhang Guo Lao looked at Xiao Chen’s indifferent back and wanted to say something. After a moment, he smiled helplessly and walked to the two hundred or so surviving commoner martial artists. His sharp eyes scanned them and found that in this battle, they had also lost more than thirty people, and more than a hundred were injured. However, it was much better than the Qian Clan. The Qian Clan had lost more than a hundred people, and more than three hundred were injured. Half of them were killed or injured by Zhang Guo Lao.
“Everyone!
Bring the dead and the seriously injured brothers and sisters, and follow me! ”
Zhang Guo Lao shouted at the two hundred or so commoner martial artists. He waved his hand and was the first to leave the Qian Clan. He walked in the same direction as Xiao Chen, and no one knew what he was thinking.
“Hualala!”
The two hundred or so commoner martial artists didn’t say a word. They lifted the dead and seriously injured from the ground and quickly followed Zhang Guo Lao’s footsteps. The strength that Zhang Guo Lao had displayed had the others in awe. This group of fierce people believed in the principle of the strong being respected. Whoever had the hardest fist would be respected by others.
After a while, Xiao Chen and his group of fierce people who had attacked the Qian Clan disappeared at the end of the road. The onlookers made way for them to pass. Even the people from the other five major clans of Long Yao City had to give way, afraid that they would be attacked by Xiao Chen and his group of fierce people. If Xiao Chen had a sudden impulse and chose another major clan to attack, then — damn it!
“Sigh!”
The Second Elder of the Qian Clan, Qian Daan, looked at the dead and injured on the ground in front of the Qian Clan’s door and sighed heavily. His heart was filled with sorrow and he had the urge to cry.
The Qian Clan, which was originally powerful, had lost more than half of its members in less than two hours. Four Elders had died and three were seriously injured. Four Young Masters had died, and the Patriarch was seriously injured and crippled. They had also lost two million purple gold. The Qian Clan had suffered a great loss and suffered heavy losses.
What Qian Daan did not know was that the Qian Clan’s disaster was not over yet. This was because the other five major clans of Long Yao City were planning in their hearts on how to invade and divide the Qian Clan. It was estimated that it would not be long before the Qian Clan was completely exterminated.
