Chapter 300 What is this old man up to? (Second Update)
Translator: 549690339
Hearing Yang Zhen’s laughter, uninhibited and free, as if the active conspiracy to kill him by so many had amused him, left everyone stupefied.
“Has Yang Zhen gone mad? How can he still laugh in such a situation?”
“Even if he isn’t mad, he’s definitely not sane. Only a madman would do such an absurd thing.”
“Yeah, definitely not sane!”
The crowd around was abuzz with discussions, looking at Yang Zhen as if he was indeed a madman.
Among the thousands of practitioners observing, only Han Yan’er’s phoenix eyes shone brightly, her gaze fixed intently on Yang Zhen. She even tried to step forward, but was held back by Han Jingtian who gave a bitter smile and said, “Yan’er, don’t make a scene. What are you trying to accomplish in this situation?”
Han Yan’er calmly responded while watching Yang Zhen, “I want to challenge him to a fight!”
Han Jingtian was startled and quickly said, “No! Yang Zhen stunned even Elder Fang from the Divine Travel Realm. How can you possibly stand a chance against him?”
Han Yan’er remained silent as the Ice Martial Guards began to surround Yang Zhen, launching a barrage of attacks.
Yang Jiang and Aunt Lian’s faces turned pale. They were about to step in front of Yang Zhen when a thunderous commanding voice boomed, “Stop!”
The voice rolled like thunder, both violent and ruthless. Everyone turned towards the sound and were startled to see an elder approach with a grave expression.
“The City Lord?”
Most people exclaimed in surprise, looking at the approaching figure with shock evident on their faces.
Yang Jiang and Aunt Lian exchanged glances, both showing a glimmer of desperation in their eyes. They nodded subtly, preparing to risk their lives if needed.
Things had taken a turn nobody expected. This debacle had even attracted the City Lord himself.
Yang Zhen had hit Fang Family’s patriarch, destroyed their hall, and turned the leader of the Ice Martial Guards into a laughingstock, all of which everyone had witnessed.
Neither Yang Jiang and Aunt Lian, nor Fang Quan and Fang Yang, had imagined that someone of Yang Zhen’s age would not only stir up trouble in the Fang Family, but also cause a sensation in Ice Martial City, kindling the interest of the City Lord as well.
Inside Ice Martial City, the City Lord was the will of the people. None would dare to contradict his decisions. This was a testament to the City Lord’s influence and the strong power of his office.
Even though the Ice Martial City Lord, like Han Jingtian and the Elder Fang, was a practitioner of the Divine Travel Realm, his command had eight other Divine Travel Realm practitioners – a formidable force that exceeded all the families in the city combined. Who would dare defy the will of the Lord’s office? Seeing the fury on the City Lord’s face, everyone looked at Yang Zhen with pity.
“Yang Zhen is doomed now. With the City Lord himself intervening in this matter, there’s no way he can escape unscathed.”
“Even without the City Lord’s personal involvement, having offended so many people and especially the Ice Martial Guards, he wouldn’t be able to leave the Ice Martial City.”
“I heard that a group came not long ago, led by two stunningly beautiful women. Ever since then, the city was in silence. Everyone was on edge, and Yang Zhen, unaware of the situation, was causing trouble. How could he possibly survive this?”
Seeing the City Lord arrive, the Elder Fang’s fierce expression calmed and a smile crept onto his face as he glared at Yang Zhen.
With the arrival of the City Lord, there was no chance for Yang Zhen to survive, a fact evident from the face of the Ice Martial Guards’ leader.
The leader of the Ice Martial Guards, always domineering and uncontrollable, even showed face to the patriarchs and elders of the prominent families. But now, he was challenged publicly by Yang Zhen and even struck down. The humiliation wouldn’t be something he would let go of Yang Zhen for.
Whether it was the Fang Family or the Ice Martial Guards, Yang Zhen had deeply offended them. Both parties were eager to kill him, but upon the arrival of one man, their minds had become strangely calm.
With the city lord presiding over the situation, even if Yang Zhen was a monstrous genius capable of reaching the mysteries of the universe, he would not be able to leave Ice Martial City alive.
For a moment, the entire street descended into a silence akin to death. Everyone’s gaze landed on the city lord of Ice Martial City, who was striding over.
The city lord appeared to be in his sixties or seventies, but he was full of vitality. Especially his pair of tiger-like eyes, gleaming with life, commanding respect without anger. He looked around before his gaze fell on Yang Zhen. He asked in a deep voice, “So, you’re Yang Zhen?”
As expected!
The city lord had indeed come for Yang Zhen!
Everyone’s heart skipped a beat, looking at Yang Zhen with mixed feelings. To everyone’s surprise, in such a situation, Yang Zhen could still act as if nothing happened. He looked the city lord up and down, then smiled and said, “That’s right, this Sao Saint is Yang Zhen!”
Upon hearing this, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Some people unconsciously backed away, fearing that the city lord would erupt in rage, causing harm to the innocent.
Completely disrespectful! Facing the city lord of Ice Martial City, Yang Zhen was so out-of-line as to call himself the Sao Saint – he had absolutely no manners.
The leader of the Ice Martial Guards, wiping away blood from the corner of his mouth, walked in front of the city lord. He respectfully bowed, pointing at Yang Zhen with fierce internal anxiety. He said, “City lord, this is Yang Zhen. Without any cause, he stirred up trouble in the Fang Family, wrecked their guest hall, injured Elder Fang, and even injured my subordinates. He acted as if he didn’t care about Ice Martial City, and even disregarded you, city lord and…” Boom — !
A muffled sound echoed out as the city lord suddenly released a wave of terrifying energy. The True Essence erupted like a furious bear, and amid its roar, the leader of the Ice Martial Guards let out a scream. He looked at the city lord with a gaze full of disbelief.
Slap — !
A crisp slap landed on the face. Everyone was stunned as the city lord abruptly slapped the leader of the Ice Martial Guards across his face, sending him flying away, spitting blood in mid-air and even losing several teeth.
The sudden turn of events had left everyone feeling puzzled. Seeing the city lord’s rage deepening, everyone fell silent in fear, casting wary glances at the Ice Martial Guard leader lying on the ground and howling in pain.
The other Ice Martial Guards quickly bowed their heads, not daring to make a sound, let alone assisting their leader.
The scene had reached an eerie standstill. The leader of the Ice Martial Guards, struggling to stand, staggered back to the city lord, presenting his other cheek with his head lowered. Yet his gaze was filled with confusion and bewilderment that couldn’t be hidden.
Slap — !
Another crisp slap rang out, and the leader of the Ice Martial Guards was once again sent flying, landing heavily among the crowd. Both sides of his face were now swollen.
The leader of the Ice Martial Guards let out a howl, his eyes flashing with a hint of gloom. Biting his teeth, he stood up again, staggered forward, and said in a deep voice, “City lord, I don’t understand.”
The city lord of Ice Martial City snorted coldly, glanced at the Ice Martial Guard, and said coldly, “The first slap was to remind you of your place. The Ice Martial Guards are the force that defends the city, not your tool to pursue personal desires.”
The leader of the Ice Martial Guards froze, lowering his head to say in horror, “Yes, I got it wrong.”
The city lord of Ice Martial City nodded, his voice growing even deeper as he said, “The second slap was to wake you up. There are things that you can’t afford to mess with, let alone blindly throw your life away.”
The leader of the Ice Martial Guards was stunned, looking up at the city lord of Ice Martial City with a bewildered expression, obviously clueless about what he was talking about.
The rest of those present also looked at each other in consternation, unsure of the city lord’s intention.
Everyone was waiting for the city lord of Ice Martial City to continue, but to their shock, the city lord suddenly broke into a brilliant smile the next moment. He laughed heartily and walked over to Yang Zhen in large strides. Grabbing Yang Zhen’s hand, he said, “My young friend Yang Zhen, you’ve kept me waiting for a long time. But fortunately, heaven is fair. I finally got to meet you.”
Yang Zhen: “???”
Everyone: “???”
F* * *, what is this old guy playing at?
Not only the others, but even Yang Zhen was taken aback. He quickly withdrew his hand, staring at the disheveled old man in front of him with a vigilant expression.
This smile, this expression, it was simply too disgusting. It was like a lecherous old man!
