King of Creation

Chapter 1923: Chapter 1908: Snuffing Out a Candle

"The commander of the Tiger Clan’s Divine Guards has arrived! Kid, you’re in big trouble now!" Seeing the Tiger King Divine Guards, Hur Kaiqi laughed triumphantly.

"Kid, release me immediately, hand over everything you have obediently, and Lord Qi might consider sparing your life....."

Bam!

Ye Zhen viciously kicked Hur Kaiqi in the groin. The tiger demon, transformed into human form, acquired the most suitable physique for cultivation as human clans do, while inheriting certain human weaknesses.

Such as the groin!

Instantly, Hur Kaiqi curled up like a shrimp, his face turned bright red, pointing at Ye Zhen, mouth wide open, but unable to utter a word!

The Divine Guard Commander Hur Huan, who had just received the report and led a team of Tiger King Divine Guards over, immediately shouted upon witnessing the scene.

"How dare you injure a member of my Tiger Clan, bold!"

Almost instantly, the day’s duty Divine Guard Commander Hur Huan surrounded Ye Zhen and his group with a team of Tiger King Divine Guards.

Once he saw the beaten person was Hur Kaiqi, a flash of disdain appeared in Hur Huan’s eyes.

Hur Kaiqi’s notorious name was well-known inside and outside the White Tiger Mountain Range.

His deeds were also well-publicized, and he was a frequent visitor to the Tiger King Divine Guards.

However, this kid only bullied outsiders, and knows how to handle matters, plus the Tiger Clan traditionally protects its own, so the Tiger King Divine Guards usually still uphold their own people.

Upon arrival, the Divine Guard Commander Hur Huan sided with Hur Kaiqi.

As for Wang Xiaomao, having discovered Hur Kaiqi’s previous intentions, Ye Zhen ordered Wang Xiaomao to fully conceal his aura, while instructing Achou to use Ancient Mirage Qi to slightly hide him, to avoid being noticed and targeted again.

"Assaulting a member of my Tiger Clan without reason is a serious crime. What exactly happened?" Hur Huan asked loudly.

Hur Kaiqi, just rescued, wanted to speak, but the kick Ye Zhen landed on his vital spot was not easily bearable, and he still couldn’t speak due to the pain.

Ye Zhen took the opportunity to recount the incident.

However, just as Ye Zhen recounted, Hur Kaiqi finally recovered.

Enraged Hur Kaiqi pointed at Ye Zhen and cursed, "Commander, this kid is deceiving you! They not only defaulted on their payment but also attacked and threatened me. Fortunately, you came just in time."

Hur Huan glanced at Ye Zhen, "Do either of you have evidence?"

"I have his confession!" Ye Zhen replied.

"Commander, that confession was obtained by threatening me, it’s not valid. I have witnesses, all the Tiger Clan members present can testify!"

"Commander, we can all testify for Lord Qi!" The crowd of Tiger Clan members spoke up together.

"Commander, all the evidence is clear. This thief owes me 600,000 High Grade Spiritual Stones. Please follow our Tiger Clan’s law, punish him with labor and threefold fine!"

Hur Kaiqi sneered at Ye Zhen, "You’ll regret not accepting the wine of respect but the wine of punishment now!"

Previously, Hur Kaiqi didn’t want to alert the Tiger King Divine Guards because if he did, you’d fear half of the benefits would have to be handed over!

The Divine Guard Commander Hur Huan shook his head lightly, pointed at Ye Zhen, and commanded, "Come take down this deceitful merchant, arrest him and send him to the Tiger King Divine Guard camp for sentencing!"

Hearing this, Hur Kaiqi’s smile widened.

Nevertheless, even up to this point, Hur Kaiqi couldn’t detect a shred of worry from Ye Zhen’s expression.

Then, just as the Tiger King Divine Guards pounced, Ling Qianbi beside Ye Zhen pointed to the sky and cursed, "Little Leopard, how long are you going to watch this show? Believe that I’ll beat you up once it’s over!"

Hidden in space, Yun Ben stumbled out of the void.

Little Leopard!

Now, within the entire Tiger Clan, besides his dad, only Ling Qianbi dared to call him that.

"Golden Claw Demon Marshal?"

Seeing Yun Ben revealed in his soft armor, the Divine Guard Commander Hur Huan’s face changed, nodding slightly, while the other members of the Demon Race showed fear.

Particularly among the subsidiary Demon Race and low-level Tiger demon races, everyone kneeled.

Even Hur Kaiqi had to respectfully bow to Yun Ben, "Greetings, Golden Claw Demon Marshal!"

Ye Zhen was slightly surprised.

Coming to the Taimeng Demon Realm, he had Ling Qianbi contact Yun Ben, the local insider.

Ye Zhen knew that since the battle with him at the Five Immortals Arena, Yun Ben had broken through to the Realm King Realm, doing well in the Demon Race.

But unexpectedly, he became a Demon Marshal.

In the Demon Clan, only the top-strength Realm King Realm demons can assume the role of a Demon Marshal.

Though, considering this, it seemed about right.

Though Yun Ben lost to Ye Zhen, his power was in no way inferior. When he was at the Ninth Stage of Dark Palace Realm, he had already defeated martial artists of the Second Stage of Realm King Realm.

After the breakthrough, his strength was even more outstanding.

With Yun Ben, the insider from within the Tiger Clan supporting him, and Ye Zhen having a piece of evidence, he certainly wouldn’t take a loss.

This was Ye Zhen’s firm belief.

However, Yun Ben gave Ye Zhen more surprises than expected.

"It’s you again!"

Yun Ben slowly walked up to Hur Kaiqi, his cold gaze making Hur Kaiqi uncomfortable all over, "You can scam others, I don’t care, but you dare to scam my mate and even try to kill him, do you really think I won’t take action against you?"

Slap!

As he spoke, Yun Ben slapped Hur Kaiqi right across the face, leaving him bewildered.

Commander of the Tiger King Divine Guard, Hur Huan, however, turned his head as if he didn’t see this happening.

The Tiger Clan is protective of their own and does not allow outsiders to bully them.

But, as the king of all beasts, it’s okay if it’s internal bullying.

Within the Tiger Clan, the number of brawls that occur each day reaches over ten thousand; if the Tiger King Divine Guards were to manage them all, they wouldn’t have any time left to themselves.

"You..."

Hur Kaiqi was furious; for years, he had been used to being untouchable, using the prestige of his father, the first Demon Commander under the Wuhuan Great Saint. Except for his father, no one had ever slapped him!

Slap!

Just as Hur Kaiqi got angry, Yun Ben slapped him again.

"What do you mean by ’you’, even if your father, the Nuoshan Demon Commander, saw me, he would have to greet me with respect! Do you think you’re something special just because you’re a second-generation ancestor?

Would your father, the Nuoshan Commander, risk everything for you, a second-generation ancestor?

You don’t think your father’s other thirty or so sons are just decorations, do you?" Yun Ben sneered.

In an instant, cold sweat rolled down Hur Kaiqi’s forehead.

He understood very well what Yun Ben meant.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have thought of targeting the kitten with the potential for bloodline advancement.

It was because he was too ordinary among his siblings, which was why he wanted to enhance his bloodline!

"Did my mate forcefully buy from you?" Yun Ben questioned harshly.

"Uh... no!"

Slap!

Yun Ben took the opportunity to slap Hur Kaiqi on the face again, this time drawing blood from the corner of his mouth.

"So why did you still dare to scam my mate? Do you think I’m an easy target, or do you think I won’t kill anyone?" Yun Ben shouted angrily.

"Will you file a complaint or not?"

Slap!

Another slap!

Hur Kaiqi was almost about to cry.

The title of the Outer Golden Claw Demon Commander that Yun Ben held had become very prominent in the Tiger Clan in recent years, especially since Yun Ben’s father was the clan leader of the Gold-Cracking Cloud Leopard Clan and a Demon Race Great Saint. Hur Kaiqi didn’t believe he would have much interaction with the formidable Yun Ben.

But today, Hur Kaiqi experienced Yun Ben’s dominance!

Even more dominant than the rumors!

"I was wrong, please forgive me, Commander Yun, give me another chance!" Hur Kaiqi said as he straightforwardly threw all the storage rings he had received earlier back to Ye Zhen.

Looking at Hur Kaiqi, who lowered his head but with eyes full of anger, Yun Ben shook his head again.

Hur Kaiqi, this fool, probably still thought Yun Ben was just finding a reason to pick on him.

Little did he know, Yun Ben actually saved his life.

Ye Zhen’s terror, others might not know, but Yun Ben knew very well.

Back then, Ye Zhen, with the cultivation of the Third Stage of the Divine Communication Realm, managed to defeat Yun Ben, who wielded an Acquired Spirit Treasure and had cultivation up to the Ninth Stage of the Dark Palace Realm.

Just a few short years later, Ye Zhen’s cultivation had already reached the peak of the Ninth Stage of the Dark Palace Realm, yet his aura was so intense that even Yun Ben couldn’t discern it.

Yun Ben even felt a sense of awe and inexplicable self-embarrassment.

Yun Ben didn’t know exactly how strong Ye Zhen was now, but Yun Ben was certain that even with his current cultivation of the Third Stage of the Realm King Realm, which had greatly advanced in combat power, he absolutely could not match Ye Zhen!

As for this second-generation ancestor Hur Kaiqi, if Ye Zhen wanted to kill him, it would really be as easy as blowing out a candle.

"Get lost!"

Taking it as a great reprieve, Hur Kaiqi kept apologizing, covering his cheek as he left with his face completely downcast.

However, as he left, Hur Kaiqi’s gaze once again swept over the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten.

In an instant, the chill in Ye Zhen’s eyes intensified!
