Chapter 93: Chapter 89: Forceful Trampling! Do You Admit You Are Wrong?
BOOM!
Waves of powerful, terrifying Gang Qi, like a roaring tsunami, emanated ceaselessly from the tall, sturdy figure, crashing toward Shangguan Ao in torrents.
Shangguan Ao’s expression was grim. He desperately circulated his Gang Qi, forming brilliant, circular shields of light. His eyes were fixed on the figure in front, unable to conceal the shock in his heart.
The many masters from the Twelve Alliances felt their spirits lift the moment they saw the figure appear.
"Foreign Affairs Envoy Chen is here!"
"Fall back! Everyone, fall back!"
...
’What?’
Shangguan Ao was stunned.
’So this is the new Foreign Affairs Envoy Chen, Chen Xuan?’
’But he’s far too young.’
Once he got a clear look at Chen Xuan’s face, his mind reeled as if struck by a tidal wave.
’Such a young Gang Energy master...’
’And his aura... he’s at least at the Fourth Layer of Gang Energy!’
’How is this possible?’
"You’re Chen Xuan?"
Shangguan Ao stared intently at the figure before him, his voice somewhat hoarse.
’What kind of peerless monster is he?’
"If you want to call me ’Dad,’ I won’t object."
Chen Xuan’s gaze was indifferent, like the sharp edge of a blade.
WHOOSH!
His body vanished in an instant, as if teleporting. Carrying a terrifyingly scorching and ferocious aura, he appeared before Shangguan Ao almost immediately, making Shangguan Ao’s scalp tingle with fear.
He had already known the man before him was extraordinary and likely possessed incredible techniques.
But he was still startled by Chen Xuan’s abrupt speed.
There was no warning whatsoever.
The moment he appeared, a fiery power erupted from Chen Xuan’s body like a volcano, letting out a deafening roar. A powerful Martial Dao will coalesced as he threw a punch straight at his opponent’s head.
But Shangguan Ao was, after all, a master of the Gang Energy Realm from the older generation. His Gang Energy flowed perfectly and without obstruction. He unleashed it all in an instant with a deafening, terrifying roar. With a terrifying aura, his withered hand shot out with 120% of his power to meet the young man’s attack head-on.
BOOM!
A tremendous noise rang out, as if the heavens and earth were being overturned.
The powerful, terrifying shockwave caused the surroundings to tremble violently. One by one, trees were blasted apart by this immense force, exploding in a chain reaction with a deafening series of BANGS.
Countless shards of rock and debris flew everywhere.
Within a radius of over ten meters, an entire layer of the ground was brutally ripped up.
It was just one move.
Shangguan Ao’s expression changed drastically. He felt an unimaginably terrifying force surge from his opponent’s fist, so powerful that his own Gang Qi was rapidly collapsing and falling into disarray...
...as if it were as fragile as window paper.
At the same time, an overwhelming Martial Dao will, like a majestic and terrifying mountain, bore down hard on his Spirit and mind. It sought to crush his resistance from within, trample his soul, and make him suddenly lose control of all his Gang Energy.
’Not good!’
Shangguan Ao was horrified and circulated his Gang Energy with all his might.
But it was useless.
Chen Xuan decisively put more force into his punch. His terrifying fist seemed to become a searing flame. With a sudden jolt and a BOOM, he completely shattered the Gang Qi protecting Shangguan Ao.
Then, as Shangguan Ao watched in terror, the fist continued onward and smashed viciously into his chest.
CRACK!
PTUI!
A mouthful of crimson blood sprayed out.
The clothes on Shangguan Ao’s upper body instantly exploded into dust. His entire body was sent flying backward by Chen Xuan’s punch, hurtling like a meteor straight toward the main gate of Shangguan Castle.
"Father!"
Shangguan Jie’s eyes widened in horror, and he hurriedly rushed toward Shangguan Ao.
"Castle Lord!"
"The Castle Lord is injured..."
"Quick, check on the Castle Lord..."
The remaining retainers and clan members were all aghast and scrambled after him.
But Chen Xuan was faster.
He had no intention of giving his opponent any chance to recover.
Just after sending Shangguan Ao flying, his body vanished once again.
Using his Three Thousand Thunders movement technique, his body moved as if teleporting, appearing right in front of Shangguan Ao’s body. Before Shangguan Ao could even hit the ground, Chen Xuan’s arms, imbued with terrifyingly hot power, rained down like a dense meteor shower. With a cruel expression, he unleashed a frantic barrage on Shangguan Ao’s body.
Shangguan Ao’s face was filled with fury, his chest caved in. He tried to scream.
But his cries were instantly drowned out by the countless, dense shadows of fists.
He could only frantically raise his Gang Energy, defending with all his might.
’I’m at the Fifth Layer of Gang Energy!’
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"ARGH!"
The sounds were deafening, the heat immense.
Countless bursts of Gang Qi exploded in mid-air.
In just a brief moment, Chen Xuan had thrown an unknown number of heavy punches.
The entire sky seemed to be erupting in a chain of explosions.
Finally! freeweɓnovel.cøm
CRACK!
Shangguan Ao’s body slammed viciously into the ground at the main gate, caving in the earth and cracking it open. He spat out another torrent of blood, his body mangled into a bloody pulp. His consciousness was fading, and he barely looked human anymore.
Landing with him was none other than Chen Xuan.
All of this seemed to happen slowly,
but in reality, it all occurred in a flash of lightning.
It was so fast that no one could react.
Even Shangguan Jie had only made it halfway before the battle was already over.
SQUISH!
Chen Xuan planted his foot on Shangguan Ao’s bloody, mangled face. He looked down from his superior position at the nearly dead, gruesome figure and said coldly:
"Do you know your mistake?"
Shangguan Ao, covered in blood with his consciousness nearly gone, felt his face twitch. His voice was strained. "Mon... monster..."
Blood was pouring from his mouth, nostrils, and eye sockets...
...gushing out as if it were free.
Shangguan Jie’s face was filled with terror. He stopped abruptly, a chill running down his spine from head to toe. He simply couldn’t believe his eyes.
Even the other retainers and clan members rushing up from behind were terrified, staring at the brutal, domineering scene.
Their Castle Lord...
The once-omnipotent Castle Lord.
Today, he had been beaten so badly he was no longer recognizable, his bones shattered, and was being stepped on like dirt...
’This... How is this possible?’
Even the many masters from the Twelve Alliances were utterly horrified at this moment.
They watched the scene unfold, one and all, in disbelief.
’No wonder this new Foreign Affairs Envoy Chen targeted Shangguan Castle from the start...’
’With such terrifying strength...’
’Why would he ever fear Shangguan Castle?’
Chen Xuan stood tall and imposing, his muscles defined beneath his clothes. A fiery aura enveloped him. His black robes fluttered and his dark hair drifted in the wind, while terrifying sheets of Gang Qi swirled around his body. He looked like a young Celestial God.
Especially the image of him stepping on Shangguan Ao’s face...
...a ceaseless fist intent radiating from him, powerful enough to warp space and twist the mind...
This was destined to become an image no one would ever forget for the rest of their lives.
THUD!
Suddenly, Shangguan Jie fell directly to his knees. His legs could no longer support him. His face was deathly pale with utter terror as he began to kowtow to Chen Xuan in a near-wail.
He slammed his head viciously against the ground.
"I surrender! I surrender!"
Shangguan Jie cried out, breaking down completely. "I’ll tell you the demons’ whereabouts! Please, spare the Shangguan family!"
His father, the strongest person he knew, had been crushed and trampled by Chen Xuan, and was now on the brink of death.
He no longer had a single thought of resistance.
CLATTER!
Behind him, the crowd of retainers and clan members dropped their weapons one after another. Exceptionally terrified, they quickly knelt and began to kowtow as well.
"We surrender! We all surrender!"
As he lay beneath Chen Xuan’s foot, Shangguan Ao’s face was covered in blood. Hearing Shangguan Jie’s voice, hot tears streamed down his face, mixed with overwhelming regret...
’It’s over...’
’The Shangguan family is completely finished...’
’If I had known it would come to this, I shouldn’t have been so arrogant!’
’I should have sent those two Cat Demons to kill Chen Xuan themselves...’
’During the attack, I wanted to scream for help, but my body was enveloped by Chen Xuan’s countless fist shadows, and I couldn’t get a single word out...’
’Now that his assault is over, I’m so grievously injured and on the verge of death that it’s even more impossible to call for help...’
[You have dominantly trampled Shangguan Ao, shattered the pride of everyone in Shangguan Castle, and forced them to submit to you. The retribution is exceptionally satisfying. Retribution points +8000!]
"The demons’ whereabouts?"
Chen Xuan’s eyes narrowed. He turned his head and said, "Where?"
"At my home! Those two Cat Demons are both at my home!"
Shangguan Jie wailed.
WHOOSH!
SPLAT!
Almost as soon as the words left his mouth, a black shadow shot from behind him at an incredible speed, instantly piercing through Shangguan Jie’s body and causing it to explode into pieces...
Flesh, limbs, and organs flew everywhere.
A strange figure in a black robe and hood, having killed Shangguan Jie with a single claw, landed where he had just been. A sinister, cold aura emanated from them...
From under the hood,
a pair of cold, golden eyes, like sharp blades,
swept a cold gaze toward Chen Xuan.
Along with it came a strange, grim spiritual pressure, as if dozens of sharp weapons were suddenly pressing against him.
