Chapter 175: I Won’t Let Him Off Easily
Yu Zhang is an outstanding child, just that hes a bit narrow-minded. Other than that, he doesnt like women, Master Chen ignored Yu Zhangs pleas and said.
He doesnt like women? The crowd couldnt believe what they were hearing.
The students widened their eyes as they backed away. Their faces turned green as they seemed to recall something.
Ah, you probably still dont know yet. The person he likes is Zhao Yan. Ey, the deeper the love, the greater the hatred. Master Chen sighed as he looked at the sky. How many people in this world are able to escape from the tribulation of love?
Yu Zhang slowly closed his eyes. There was nothing he wanted more than to drop dead right now. He didnt want to remain in this world for even a second longer.
Fang Chen:
The crowd fell silent too. Even Zhao Yan was dumbstruck as well. He nearly lost control of his inner ki and went berserk.
Seconds later, Fang Chen turned to Yu Zhang and said, So what if you like men? You could have daringly confessed your feelings. There might still be a glimmer of hope. Yet, you chose to frame Zhao Yan, and you ended up being reduced to Master Chens vile accomplice.
Yu Zhang didnt say a word. He suddenly rammed his head against the floor. Bam bam bam!
He put all his strength into it. Just like that, he breathed his last.
To think things would turn out like this Fang Chen shook his head.
Yu Zhang probably would have stubbornly held on for anything else, but the one thing that he feared the most was to have his sexuality revealed in public.
Imperial Duke Fang, hes dead, Jue Panshi inspected Yu Zhangs body before reporting.
We should make an example of him regardless, Fang Chen said.
Understood, Imperial Duke Fang. Jue Panshi nodded.
Just then, someone in the crowd noticed some of the corpses and the two living women. Another uproar broke out as a result. Curses, cries, and furious roars ensued.
Yet, Master Chen watched all of these with an eerie smile, as if he was enjoying the criticisms.
Your Highness, Ill leave it to you to clean up the situation, Fang Chen said.
I understand. The Auspicious King nodded.
Unexpectedly, Fang Chen wasnt angered by that remark. This left the crowd more perplexed. Does Fang Chen have such a high view of Zhao Yan?
You blame me, dont you? Xia Song asked bitterly.
If I truly blamed you, the Auspicious King Manor would have long plunged into chaosI have the power to do that. I can see whats going on. You didnt help me because you believed that I was the culprit. You did nothing wrong at all. The same goes for the others. The ones who had done wrong are Master Chen and Yu Zhang, Zhao Yan said.
Huangfu Jie frowned. He first glanced at Fang Chen before turning to Zhao Yan. What big words you utter. Our Profound Saber Sect doesnt involve ourselves in other peoples affairs, but we wont let others easily touch the Auspicious King Manor under our watch.
Zhao Yan chuckled. He gently beckoned with his hand, and shockingly, all of Huangfu Jies seven sabers drifted to his side.
The crowd was flabbergasted.
Huangfu Jie was taken aback too. He tried to pull his sabers back with his inner ki, but it wouldnt budge at all. It was as if some invisible force was standing in his way.
Wu Zhanghuan and the other martial artists were astounded. Zhao Yans martial cultivation is far higher than we expected!
Not even the Profound Saber Sect Master could simultaneously control seven sabers, but Zhao Yan, despite being a student of the South Mountain School, was able to rob Huangfu Jie of his sabers.
Huangfu Jie, I have told you that the world is larger than you think. Youll lag behind if you dont work hard. Zhao Yan has long reached pinnacle Earth Profound. You arent a match for him, Fang Chen said with a chuckle. He turned to Zhao Yan and said, Return the sabers to him.
Zhao Yan nodded. With a wave of his hand, the seven sabers returned to Huangfu Jies side.
Earth Profound realm?
The crowd was shocked by those three words. Wu Zhanghuan and the other martial artists couldnt believe that an Earth Profound realm martial artist would land in such a plight.
Had it been them, they wouldnt have swallowed their indignation. They would have gone on a rampage, especially since there was no one in the South Immortal Commandery who could stop an Earth Profound realm martial artist. They would have to deploy at least tens of thousands of soldiers, and even so, there was no guarantee that they could capture him.
Hes at Earth Profound realm I would have never thought theres such a prodigy in the southern region, Huangfu Jie said with a frown. He instinctively glanced at Fang Chen.
Zhao Yan could guess what Huangfu Jie was wondering, so he replied, Im not a match for Imperial Duke Fang. He could kill me with ease.
So Imperial Duke Fang is still the more formidable one here, the crowd thought while heaving a sigh of relief.
It was then that the Auspicious King asked, Imperial Duke Fang, how should we deal with Master Chen? Are we going to publicly execute him tomorrow?
That would be letting him off too easily. Fang Chen smiled.
The crowd realized that Master Chen was going to die a horrendous death.
