Free Web NovelChapter 139: Chapter 139: Disband or Merge
Two more male students snickered as the three of them began to surround Cheng Yunsu.
That Junior Sister Chen merely shrugged in response...
She looked at Lu Chao. "Speak. Did you steal our things? If you kneel and confess, we’ll let you suffer a little less."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chao slowly rose from his seated, cross-legged position. A murderous glint had already appeared in his eyes.
But Junior Sister Chen seemed oblivious, continuing to spout arrogantly, "What are you glaring at? Believe it or not, I’ll dig your eyes out."
The moment she finished speaking, the murderous glint in Lu Chao’s eyes turned to calm indifference. He spoke coldly, "I don’t know what’s going on, but if you want to lay a hand on my wife... then I won’t be polite about... chopping off your hands!"
WHOOSH...
Before anyone could react, Lu Chao shot forward and kicked at Junior Sister Chen.
Junior Sister Chen’s expression changed. At the Postnatal Fifth Layer, she couldn’t react at all. Lu Chao’s foot struck her squarely in the abdomen.
With a wretched cry, she was sent flying, violently spewing blood.
In the instant Junior Sister Chen went flying... SHING!
Lu Chao smoothly drew the sword hanging from her waist and flashed toward the three male students... THWIP! THWIP! THWIP!
Three flashes of the sword, and three arms were instantly lopped off by Lu Chao.
The three male Celestial King Students had no smiles left on their faces. They clutched their gushing stumps and collapsed to the ground.
Their shrill, agonizing screams tore through the sky.
The smell of blood instantly filled Sun Shijin’s entire courtyard. Lu Chao’s movements had been far too fast—so fast that the two Transformation Realm tutors restraining Yin Qixing hadn’t been able to react, let alone intervene.
Their expressions twisted in horror. They had never imagined a Dragon Flame Student could be so savagely violent. They roared, "Kid, you’re courting death!"
With that, the two immediately released Yin Qixing and charged toward Lu Chao, ready to kill.
But how could Yin Qixing let them succeed?
The True Qi of a Transformation Realm expert erupted from him. Yin Qixing flashed forward to block the two men, and a brutal battlefield aura exploded outward.
He threw a single punch at each of the two middle-aged tutors.
BANG! BANG!
Yin Qixing’s cultivation realm was higher than theirs; he slammed both of them to the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the only one left standing was a young female student by the door, and she immediately collapsed to the ground in a heap,
scared witless by the sudden, violent turn of events.
Just then, one of the middle-aged male tutors pointed a trembling finger at Yin Qixing. "You dare to strike us? We’re tutors from the Celestial King Academy!"
Then he pointed at Lu Chao. "A Dragon Flame Student... You son of a bitch, you actually dared to cut off our students’ arms! You’re dead!"
He was shocked and furious, utterly incredulous, able to do nothing but hurl one threat after another.
Lu Chao, gripping the blood-drenched sword, suddenly looked toward the two Celestial King Tutors. The sword lunged... THWIP! THWIP!
The two Celestial King Tutors’ arms were also chopped off by Lu Chao. Amidst their piercing screams, Lu Chao said coldly, "Why would I only dare to cut off your students’ arms? I dare to cut off your tutors’ arms as well."
In the distance...
Junior Sister Chen, who had been struggling to her feet while clutching her stomach, saw the tutors’ arms get severed. Her legs gave out in terror, and she collapsed back to the ground, all her previous arrogance gone.
However, it wasn’t over. Lu Chao charged forward again... SLAP! SLAP!
He delivered two vicious slaps across the tutors’ faces. "Tutors from the Celestial King Academy, is it? What a show of force. The moment you arrive, you accuse someone of theft, demand to search them, and even try to force them to kneel. You were really asking for a beating."
The two men, already missing an arm each, coughed up mouthfuls of blood from the slaps.
At that moment, Yin Qixing walked over. "Lu Chao, stop for now. They’re from the Celestial King Academy, so it’s best not to go too far."
Hearing this, Lu Chao slowly took a few steps back...
’If they hadn’t tried to harm Cheng Yunsu, and if those three men hadn’t been planning to take advantage of the situation to grope her, I wouldn’t have been so brutal. After all, I still have to consider that this is the Dragon Flame Academy.’
Suppressing the rage in his heart, Lu Chao suddenly looked up. "Something seems to be happening at Dragon Flame Academy. Let’s go see."
With that, Lu Chao pulled Cheng Yunsu up and walked out of the courtyard.
He could gradually hear a commotion in the distance—angry shouts and screams of pain...
Yin Qixing glanced at Lu Chao, then at Cheng Yunsu...
’His wife is his bottom line. Anyone who dares to touch her will see him go berserk!’
The next moment, Yin Qixing’s cold gaze swept over the five people whose arms had been cut off. He said indifferently, "If you find a doctor now, you might have a chance of reattaching them. Now get the hell out of Dragon Flame Academy."
After leaving them with those words, Yin Qixing hurried after Lu Chao and Cheng Yunsu.
’I said that because I don’t want to blow this up and cause trouble for the Marquis. They are, after all, tutors and students from the Celestial King Academy.’
「After the three of them left...」
The five armless individuals cried out strangely as they grabbed their severed limbs and frantically ran out of Dragon Flame Academy.
The two female students swallowed hard and quickly ran after them.
...
Meanwhile, when Lu Chao’s group arrived at the source of the commotion, they saw two factions facing off.
The conditions of the two groups were vastly different.
On the Dragon Flame Academy side, both students and tutors were bruised and swollen. Many students were even lying on the ground, some with their arms cut off, while tutors frantically tried to help reattach them.
The Celestial King Students on the other side, however, were all incredibly arrogant, their neat robes giving them an imposing air.
Between the two crowds, Sun Shijin was in a standoff with an old man whose hair was combed perfectly neat. Their powerful True Qi was pressing against each other, locked in a stalemate where neither could gain the upper hand...
At this moment, the old man from Celestial King Academy said, "Sun Shijin, you can’t defeat me. Hand over the student who stole our things."
Sun Shijin, his wild hair flying about, shot back, "Zheng Liyuan, don’t you go too far!"
Hearing this, Zheng Liyuan let out a sinister laugh...
"Sun Shijin, if you don’t hand over the thieving student, I can give you two choices."
"One: Disband Dragon Flame Academy."
"Two: Announce that Dragon Flame Academy will be absorbed by Celestial King Academy, and change its name. You are not worthy of using the words ’Dragon Flame’."
His voice was chilling. Both conditions were meant to rip out Dragon Flame Academy’s very roots.
Sun Shijin’s expression was a mask of absolute fury...
Just then, a calm voice spoke up. "Celestial King Academy, don’t you think you’re going a bit too far?"
As the voice faded, Yin Ye stepped out, one foot at a time.
At his appearance, the old man, Zheng Liyuan, felt his pupils shrink slightly. "Who are you?"
Yin Ye didn’t answer. Instead, he took a rust-spotted Long Halberd from a nearby weapons rack and suddenly swung it out. freewebnøvel.com
RUMBLE...
With that single strike, he sliced right through the clashing pressure of Sun Shijin’s and Zheng Liyuan’s True Qi.
In an instant, Zheng Liyuan stumbled back several steps—STOMP, STOMP, STOMP—and the Celestial King Students behind him retreated several steps as well.
Every one of them stared at Yin Ye in utter astonishment.
The latter stepped forward, halberd in hand, and calmly asked Zheng Liyuan again, "You tell me, who am I?"
Zheng Liyuan’s face suddenly turned ugly. A cold, grim voice rang out: "Marquis Jilong, Yin Ye!"
