Chapter 40
“Stop right there!”
The infuriated Bufan and Slaughter Buren looked at Xiao Chen’s back and gnashed their teeth in hatred. They shouted in unison with a murderous aura.
“Oh?
Do you really want to fight?
Or do you want to die? ”
When Xiao Chen heard the shout behind him, he shrugged his shoulders helplessly. He did not turn his head, but his cold voice was clearly heard by everyone present. He paused and added a sentence that made the two young masters of the Sha family go berserk, “How about this, I don’t have much time. If you want to fight, why don’t you come at me together?”
Arrogant!
This was what the two young masters and three young masters of the Sha family wanted to say.
Domineering!
This was what Xiao Chen wanted to say in his heart. He also secretly gave Xiao Chen a thumbs up and thought to himself, “This master is really fearless. How could he be afraid of two people? He is really a mess. However, his strength is indeed much stronger than the two young masters.”
Although he was feeling emotional, it looked like this battle was inevitable. If they wanted to fight, then let them fight. As long as no lives were lost, he could just watch from the side. Besides, this was the Sha family, so there should not be any problems.
With this thought in mind, Military Kill Buren felt extremely helpless.
“Whoosh!”
With the crisp sound of a sword being unsheathed, Slaughter Buren had unsheathed his sword. It was a long and thin sword. He exchanged glances with Bufan, who was wielding a large saber. They could see the anger and viciousness in each other’s eyes. The two of them shouted “Kill” and charged at Xiao Chen, who had not turned around.
“Dang!” “Dang!”
Xiao Chen did not turn around. He was completely relying on his perception and combat instincts to capture the attacks of the two people behind him. When the two of them were about ten feet behind him, Xiao Chen moved. He unsheathed his wooden sword and took a diagonal step with his left foot. With a beautiful turn, he did not even look at them. The wooden sword flashed with the Desolate Power and he swung it in a half circle. With a horizontal sweep, it collided with a large saber and a long sword, producing an ear-piercing collision sound.
“En, en!”
Two muffled groans of pain came from Undying Killer and Cruel Killer respectively. Both of them were forced back five or six steps by the tremendous force from their weapons before they managed to steady themselves. The weapons in their hands almost flew out of their hands. The intense pain from their purlicues and the slight trembling of their arms shocked the two arrogant young masters.
Neither of them had expected that Xiao Chen, whose cultivation was about the same as theirs, would actually have such great strength. He was actually able to win one against two. This was because they saw that Xiao Chen did not take a single step back. Instead, he had a calm and cool expression on his face. This was something that they, who were proud of, could not accept. They could not accept it at all.
The three young masters from the Sha family, who were originally waiting to see Xiao Chen being tortured to death by the two young masters from the Sha family, already had ugly sneers on their faces. However, when they saw the two young masters being forced back by Xiao Chen in one move, the smiles on their faces froze. Moments later, the other half of their faces that was still intact turned green. Their expressions were very interesting.
Other than Xiao Chen, the only one who was relatively calm was Army Breaker. Army Breaker had seen the battle between Xiao Chen and the Yue family’s Elder and Patriarch, so he naturally knew of Xiao Chen’s strength. Even so, Army Breaker still secretly nodded his head at Xiao Chen’s strength and battle instincts.
“Phantom Beast Slash!”
“Flowing Cloud Sword!”
When Undying Killer and Cruel Killer saw the three young masters’ faces change and the strange expression on Army Breaker’s face, they felt as if they had eaten a fly. Their faces were red and black, and their hatred for the cold and indifferent Xiao Chen increased. The two of them looked at each other and simultaneously released their strongest attack — Desolate Skill.
“Do you really want to die?”
When Xiao Chen saw the two of them unleashing their fiercest attacks on him, he was truly enraged. He hated the Sha family’s young masters to the extreme as he questioned them coldly. A cold killing intent appeared on his face. He planned to use all his strength. Even if he couldn’t kill the two of them, he would … cripple them.
Flies were the most annoying, but if he broke their wings, they wouldn’t bother him anymore.
Xiao Chen’s most conservative plan was to break the two young masters from the Sha family, who were as annoying as flies.
“Kill!”
Xiao Chen shouted coldly as he leaped into the air. His longsword made a very strange movement in the air. The longsword in his hand began to vibrate without any pattern. It was as if he was slashing a wave-like arc in the air, but the speed was much faster.
Sound-type Desolate Skill!
Xiao Chen did not want to continue playing with the two young masters as it was meaningless. He planned to end the battle quickly. Since the enemy had already used a Desolate Skill, he did not hold back and used it.
“Not good!”
When Military Kill Ripper saw that the three young masters of the Sha family had used their Desolate Skills, especially when he saw that Xiao Chen’s Desolate Skill was extraordinary, he knew that he could no longer sit back and do nothing. Hence, he decisively intervened.
Military Kill Ripper appeared in the middle of the two parties like lightning and quickly sent out three palm strikes. The three palm strikes were light, but three palm prints formed from the Power of Desolation gently pushed Xiao Chen and company away, forcefully interrupting the trio’s fierce attacks.
The release of the Power of Desolation was a prominent characteristic of a Purple Image Realm warrior.
Military Kill Ripper was indeed a Purple Image realm expert from a poor family. He was very adept at controlling the Power of Desolates. With three simple palms, he was able to force the three of them away without injuring them at all.
“Young masters, please forgive me for being rude. I have no other intentions. I just do not wish for the three of you to lose your lives because of this. If anything were to happen to you, I would not be able to answer to the Patriarch. I hope the three of you can forgive me.”
After Military Kill Ripper achieved his goal of separating the trio, he immediately jumped to the side and knelt down on one knee in front of the trio. He spoke sincerely.
“Military Kill Ripper!
How dare you, a servant, offend your superiors!
Aren’t you afraid that the Sha family will kill your entire family?
You are courting death! ”
Bufan Sha was extremely unhappy that his attack had been countered by Military Kill Ripper. He did not care about anything else as he shouted at Military Kill Ripper. He raised his saber and was about to behead Military Kill Ripper, who was kneeling on the ground.
“Dang!”
Bufan Sha, who was beside him, was quick to react. He used his sword to block the descending saber and said to the puzzled Bufan Sha, “Second Brother, why do you have to lower yourself to the level of a servant?”
“Hmph!”
Bufan Sha snorted coldly and kept his saber. He continued to stare coldly at Xiao Chen. He did not hide the killing intent in his eyes.
Although Bufan Sha was simple-minded, he still understood the meaning behind Bufan Sha’s words.
It was very simple. If they were to kill Military Kill Ripper in front of Xiao Chen, they would be inferior to a country bumpkin like Xiao Chen. They would lose face.
“If you don’t want to fight, I will leave.”
Xiao Chen knew that with Military Kill Ripper around, he would not be able to leave any ‘souvenirs’ on these two Sha Clan young masters. Thus, he kept his wooden sword and spoke indifferently. Then, he turned and left decisively.
Military Kill Ripper apologized to Bufan Sha and Bufan Sha before he chased after Xiao Chen. He continued to lead the way to the Third Elder’s place, leaving behind a few people with unkind expressions.
Bufan Sha looked at Xiao Chen’s disappearing figure with a ferocious glint and a gloomy expression. He looked at the similarly gloomy Bufan Sha and said angrily, “Seventh Brother, are we going to let that country bumpkin off just like that?
I can’t take this lying down! ”
“Let him off?
Haha, how is that possible?!
Let this bastard be arrogant for a few days. When Big Brother returns from the Death Mountain Range, the three of us will join hands and toy with him to death. We will make him regret coming to the Sha Clan. Hehe … “Bufan Sha glanced at Bufan Sha before he turned his venomous eyes back to the disappearing black figure. He laughed sinisterly like an evil ghost, causing everyone to shudder.
“En, hehe …”
When Bufan Sha heard Bufan Sha’s words, he muttered to himself for a moment. When he thought about his Big Brother’s strength and status in the Sha Clan, killing a bastard from the Sha Clan would be a piece of cake. He nodded in agreement and laughed sinisterly.
