Chapter 1030 - Inextinguishable Anger
Chapter 1030: Inextinguishable Anger
The image of five Heavenly Dragons appeared behind Xiao Chen. They reared their heads and roared, stirring up the winds and clouds, changing the color of the sky.
Wang Jue, Gu Jiange, and the other Young City Lords were dumbfounded. The City Lord’s Residence’s guards that had been charging with a ferocious momentum and aura all died with three attacks.
When the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages on the rooftops saw the situation blow up, they quickly charged over, shouting, “Young City Lords, retreat, fast. This person is a Sage of the physical body. His strength is comparable to that of a grandmaster-level Martial Sage!”
“You think you can retreat?”
Xiao Chen snorted coldly and rushed forward. With every step he took, he unleashed five thousand tons of force. The power that burst out as he ran was like a volcano erupting; mountains quaked.
The huge City Lord’s Residence shook intensely as the ground trembled and the sky swayed. The Young City Lords were all extremely frightened, their complexions paling as they ran for their lives.
These Young City Lords had not expected such a demonic genius to appear, one who dared to kill the people of the City Lord’s Residence. This person was simply tired of living.
“Bang!”
Xiao Chen moved extremely fast. With every step, he left behind very solid-looking afterimages. He caught up with Broken Cloud City’s Young City Lord, Gu Jiange, in three steps.
Without saying a word, he unleashed five Dragon Force and punched. Thunderous noises resounded as five dragons roared.
Gu Jiange did his best to block. However, this was a strike that equaled that of a grandmaster-level Martial Sage. How could he block?
“Ka ca! Ka ca!”
Cracks appeared on the bones in Gu Jiange’s arms, then continued to spread out. In just a moment, all of his bones shattered, and he died.
Xiao Chen slapped the corpse aside and continued his pursuit.
Such a strange commotion startled all the cultivators in Shattered Cloud City. Since someone actually dared to make a move in the City Lord’s Residence, a large number of cultivators rushed over to watch the commotion.
“Damn! Another Young City Lord died in this person’s hands.”
“He instantly killed two Young City Lords. Where did this fellow come from?”
The people watching all showed fear on their faces. Behind each of the Young City Lords was a quasi-Emperor.
If you offended a quasi-Emperor within the Shattered Cloud Sea, no one could save you, no matter where you went. Now, Xiao Chen offended two in one go. He was simply tired of living.
Mo Chen, who was on the ground, put her veil back on. She had not expected Xiao Chen to start killing because of a simple promise to her.
His Vital Qi will eventually run out. When the City Lord’s Residence’s grandmaster-level and great grandmaster-level Martial Sages come out, he will definitely die.
Thinking of this, Mo Chen teared up. Was it worth it to kill in rage for her?
Xiao Chen took another ten steps in an instant. With every three steps, he threw a punch, killing one person. The momentum behind his punch was unblockable. With this, he killed another three people.
By the time the grandmaster-level Martial Sages of the City Lord’s Residence rushed over, only Wang Jue remained of the eight Young City Lords.
All these happened in the time it took for a spark to fly. Xiao Chen had run only ten-odd steps, and seven Young City Lords fleeing for their lives died, leaving only Wang Jue.
The watching cultivators were frightened speechless. Several people stared at Xiao Chen with fear in their eyes.
How angry did Xiao Chen have to be to make a move in the City Lord’s Residence? How confident did he have to be to kill the Young City Lords, people who were venerated in the Cloud Sea Domain, people who were pretty much crown princes?
Dragons roared and a king’s aura spread out. Xiao Chen remained expressionless as his figure flashed, continuing to chase after Wang Jue.
However, at this moment, the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages arrived. With his exertions, Xiao Chen did not have much Vital Qi left.
Once his Vital Qi ran out, he would be like a child before the grandmaster-level Martial Sages with his Martial Monarch Quintessence. No matter how strong his physical body was, he would be beaten to death.
However, Xiao Chen’s gaze turned dark. He continued to glare at Wang Jue, showing no intent to stop.
“You still dare to attack?!”
The three grandmaster-level Martial Sages snorted coldly and attacked together. Rings of Heavenly Sage Laws appeared behind their backs. As they breathed, they could absorb a vast amount of Spiritual Energy.
As expected, the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages all executed killing moves, showing no intent to hold back.
With these three people working together, even a grandmaster-level Martial Sage would suffer severe injuries.
When the grandmaster-level Martial Sages arrived, Wang Jue released his bated breath. He turned around and stood behind the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages. Then, he looked coldly at Xiao Chen and said, “Beat him up until he is severely injured. Don’t kill him. I want to torture him for a hundred years—one thousand years. I will show him how dire the consequences of his offense today are.”
Xiao Chen was currently just a Martial Monarch. If he wanted to break out, he could only use his remaining Vital Qi for defense and see if he could retreat unharmed, letting Wang Jue go.
However, unless Wang Jue died, the rage in Xiao Chen’s heart would not be extinguished. Even if he had to risk himself, he had to kill Wang Jue today.
He vowed not to rest before assuaging the rage in his heart!
Xiao Chen waved his right hand, and the Cycle Banner quickly came out from the Universe Ring. As the killing moves of the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages approached, he shook his hand and unfurled the Cycle Banner.
The lights of Massacre, Death, and Ruin intertwined with each other, filling the place with starlight.
Three words, “Massacre,” “Death,” and “Ruin,” came out from the Astral Banner. Although Xiao Chen’s Magic Energy had yet to regain its peak state, it was sufficient to activate the banner and block the killing moves of these three.
Starlight flared, and the three plain and simple words clashed with the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages’ killing moves, producing an uproar.
Blood trickled out of a corner of Xiao Chen’s lips. After he knocked away the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages, he looked coldly at the stunned Wang Jue.
Wang Jue could not help but despair. His quasi-Emperor father and the great grandmaster-level Martial Sage Vice City Lord were both at a forbidden sea, searching for treasure. At this moment, there was actually no one in the City Lord’s Residence who could stop this person.
He clenched his teeth as he watched Xiao Chen charge over with five Dragon Force. He circulated all the Quintessence in his body, thinking of doing his best to block Xiao Chen’s attack.
However, Wang Jue was not very confident. Twenty-five tons of force was equal to the full-power strike of an ordinary grandmaster-level Martial Sage. He was only a Superior Grade Martial Sage. The difference was too great.
With one punch, Wang Jue’s protection shattered. He suffered severe injuries, but he rejoiced in his heart as the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages charged over once more.
That earlier punch was clearly the last bits of Xiao Chen’s Vital Qi. As long as he retreated, Wang Jue would survive.
“Pu ci!”
However, Xiao Chen did not retreat. Instead, he swung the Cycle Banner and thrust the tip forward, piercing through Wang Jue’s chest and shattering his heart. Wang Jue died on the spot.
It was now too late for Xiao Chen to retreat. The attacks of the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages all struck his chest at the same time and sent him flying. He vomited blood, and his complexion instantly turned much paler.
“The Young City Lord is dead!”
When the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages saw the dead Wang Jue on the ground, the murderous intent on their faces intensified. Then, they gave chase to Xiao Chen, who was flying backwards.
Xiao Chen turned around in the air and unfurled his Freedom Wings. His speed suddenly increased. When he was about to reach Mo Chen, he shouted, “Stretch out your hand!”
Mo Chen extended her right hand in somewhat of a daze. As Xiao Chen flew by quickly, he pulled her into his embrace and left the City Lord’s Residence.
At this moment, his Vital Qi was already spent. He needed to use his Magic Energy to maintain the Freedom Wings. He could not fight the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages behind by relying on the Quintessence of a Martial Monarch.
However, Xiao Chen was in no rush. He still had not used the Azure Emperor’s saber light. If necessary, Ao Jiao could possess his body as well.
Nonetheless, he was not at his wits’ end yet. If he could, he should not use these trump cards.
As the cultivators around watched Xiao Chen unfurl his Freedom Wings, leaving after he killed, their hearts swelled like the waves of the sea.
In the completely chaotic City Lord’s Residence, the eight Young City Lords of the Cloud Sea Domain died, just like that.
In the following days, terrifying waves would surge through the entire Cloud Sea Domain, spreading word of this mysterious man by Mo Chen.
For so many years, the City Lords had been a sublime existence in the Cloud Sea Domain. No one dared to rebel against them. Today, a Martial Monarch youth killed all eight Young City Lords, leaving none alive.
Furthermore, this youth accomplished it in the heavily guarded City Lord’s Residence, which was rife with experts.
The Young City Lords had all died under the watch of three grandmaster-level Martial Sages. So, these three chased tightly after Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen carried one person, and his Magic Energy had not completely recovered yet. Occasionally, some other cultivators would block him. In the end, he failed to shake off these three grandmaster-level Martial Sages.
“Young Master Wen, put me down. You already helped me to take revenge. Mo Chen no longer has any regrets,” Mo Chen said sullenly in Xiao Chen’s embrace.
Xiao Chen smiled and said, “Since I am your bodyguard, for this one year, I will definitely guarantee your safety. Think about the Mo Clan. If you die, what will they do?”
“It will be fine. Once they find out about this, they will leave. I knew that such a day would come and already made preparations.”
However, Xiao Chen did not listen to Mo Chen. He only hugged her even tighter, afraid that she would struggle free.
There were people behind chasing him. He felt the Magic Energy in his sea of consciousness thinning. He glanced at the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages and sighed helplessly, then prepared to call out Ao Jiao.
When Ao Jiao possessed him and used the techniques of the Thunder Emperor like what happened in the King conferral ceremony, his identity and location would be exposed.
Just at this moment, a group of black-clad people charged out from the city. The leader of this group possessed a substantial cultivation, a grandmaster-level Martial Sage. The others were Martial Sages.
Before Xiao Chen’s shocked gaze, this group of people blocked the three grandmaster-level Martial Sages.
One of the black-clad people who did not go forward quickly said, “Young Master Wen, come with me.”
Xiao Chen recognized the voice of the manager at the Medicinal Cauldron Pavilion. After hesitating for a moment, he followed.
Although the group of black-clad people could not defeat those three grandmaster-level Martial Sages, it was more than enough to hold them back.
Xiao Chen put away the Freedom Wings and trailed the Medicinal Cauldron Pavilion’s manager through many turns. Soon, they dodged all the spies and troops of the City Lord’s Residence, entering into an unremarkable alley before taking an underground passage and arriving at the back hall of the Medicinal Cauldron Pavilion.
The black-clad man leading the way removed his mask. Indeed, it was the Medicinal Cauldron Pavilion’s manager.
The manager laughed softly and said, “Young Master Wen, we’re finally here. Even if the Shattered Cloud City’s City Lord returns, this will be a safe place.”
Xiao Chen put down Mo Chen and casually took in his surroundings. He looked at the manager and said, “Manager, many thanks for your help this time.”
