Chapter 11: The World Shall Change From This Day Onward
The surroundings fell completely silent. The laughing Greenpine martial artists found their smiles slowly stiffened up, as disbelief crept into their eyes. They never thought Fang Chen would really dare to kill someone from Greenpine Country,This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
You Longchang and his subordinates were stunned. The empress procession was dumbstruck. The surrounding populace clasped their mouths, flabbergasted by what they had seen.
Greenpine martial artists had been oppressing them in the capital all this while. They had witnessed more than enough of their atrocities. As much as they wanted to rip them into pieces, they knew that they had to hold back.
Killing someone from Greenpine Country will invoke Greenpine Countrys wrath. The current Great Xia couldnt withstand that.
Yet, Fang Chen actually slayed a Greenpine martial artist.
The crowd was shocked and confused, but that was soon replaced with delight. That was exhilarating after undergoing five years of oppression!
How dare you, Fang Chen! a Greenpine martial artist roared.
Fang Chen began walking toward the martial artist with his sword. The surrounding civilians automatically stepped aside.
Psh!
Yet another head fell to the ground. The first stage Ki Condensation Greenpine martial artist was slain, and he couldnt even fight back at all.
How dare you! Insolence! Arent you scared that our Greenpine Country would destroy your Great Xia?! the remaining Greenpine martial artists screeched.
From this day onward, I dont want to see any Greenpine martial artists in Great Xias capital, Fang Chen calmly declared.
Several people in the crowd nodded in agreement as they secretly slit the necks of nearby Greenpine martial artists.
This sight had Great Xias civilians breathing heavier, as their eyes reddened in excitement. They began scanning their surroundings for martial artists from Greenpine Country.
What should we do, commander? one of You Longchangs subordinates asked.
Do what? You Longchang was still overwhelmed by the situation and wasnt thinking straight.
War God Fang has regained his martial cultivation. We dont have to fear Greenpine Country anymore! How can we allow their martial artists to continue oppressing our people? We should work with War God Fang to eliminate every one of them! the subordinate urged with a suppressed voice.
But You Longchang gritted his teeth.
He dared not decide on this by himself. For a matter as grave as this, they would require the emperors edict before making a move.
Commander, my younger brother was killed by a Greenpine martial artist on the streets, the subordinate said.
Damn it! I dont care anymore! You Longchang roared, Soldiers of West Tiger Barracks!
Yes, commander! There was a resounding response.
These servants were from Great Xia, but they had been forced to serve the Greenpine martial artists. They were afraid of having their heads lopped off if they screwed up.
Just then, a Greenpine martial artist noticed that something was amiss. Why is it so noisy outside? He stood up and looked outward, only to be taken aback.
Whats wrong? his companion asked.
People. Theres a lot of people the Greenpine martial artist muttered. They seem to be heading in our direction.
A lot of people?
The Greenpine martial artists rushed outside, and they were shocked by the massive crowd gathered outside. Most were ordinary civilians, but there were also armored soldiers. Someone even recognized Fang Chen, who stood at the forefront of the crowd.
Isnt that Fang Chen?
Something is not right. Ill inform the dojo master! one of the martial artists rushed off.
Fang Chen walked up to the Greenpine Superior Dojo and eyed the plaque hanging above the entrance. Commander You, take down the plaque.
Yes sir! You Longchang leaped up and punched the plaque, smashing it into pieces. The wooden smithereens fell all over the ground.
Audacious!
The Greenpine martial artists were infuriated. Their eyes turned red with anger.
Kill them, Fang Chen said.
War God Fang, are you sure? You Longchang had regained his composure on his way here, and he began weighing the pros and cons of their actions.
Dont make me repeat myself. Fang Chen frowned.
You Longchang realized that there was no backing down anymore. There was only one choice he could make. Thus, he roared, Kill them!!!
He charged into the Greenpine Superior Dojo, with his subordinates quickly following him.
The Greenpine martial artists gathered at the entrance of the dojo didnt have time to react before they were buried under a sea of people. In a matter of seconds, every one of them had already suffered more than ten cuts.
This showed how much the people of Great Xia hated Greenpine martial artists.
You Longchang led the way, whereas Fang Chen relaxedly paced behind him.
The civilians closely followed Fang Chens footsteps with worried but excited faces.
The Greenpine martial artists realized what was going on and rallied their forces to stage a counterattack. It was then that a person rushed out. Upon seeing this sight, he furiously roared, Stop!
That person was the Greenpine Superior Dojos Master, Xiao Tianci. He was not a Xiao Clansman, but he was granted the Xiao clan name as he had fought alongside Wolf Marshall Xiao from a young age.
