Martial Master

Chapter 1154: Ye Wuming's Confusion 🤔

Published: December 25, 2024

How is this possible!

Everyone's eyes widened at this scene. Hua Jingou was a peak Martial King at the mid-level of the seventh stage. Although he couldn't compare to a world-class genius like Shui Leqing, he was still a master of the first tier beneath them.

Yet, before Qin Chen, he was like a chicken.

How could this kid be so strong?

Could he also be a world-class genius?

This was naturally Qin Chen intentionally establishing his authority; he didn't want anyone else to come forward after scaring away Hua Jingou.

"Let go of me!" Hua Jingou struggled violently, roaring repeatedly, but it was utterly futile. His face was filled with anger and humiliation. A dignified genius was no match for a single move, and he had previously sworn with confidence.

What a disgrace.

"Without a few pounds and ounces, just behave. If you come out to seek death, that's your fault!" Qin Chen said coldly, exuding a chilling killing intent.

"You brat, let me go, or the several lords won't let you off, and my Fire Cloud Fortress won't spare you either." Hua Jingou continued to roar in anger, feeling invincible because he knew Qin Chen didn't dare to kill him.

Killing him in front of so many people? Wasn't that seeking death?

"Qin Chen, let go!" Shui Leqing also shouted coldly. His unwillingness to act against Qin Chen did not mean he would stand by and watch as Qin Chen killed someone before him.

Qin Chen glanced at him and said indifferently, "Are we very familiar?"

"Don't force me!" Shui Leqing's expression also turned cold.

"Crack!"

Qin Chen exerted a bit of force, and Hua Jingou's neck was instantly snapped. His limbs twitched for a moment before falling limp.

So what if he was a genius? He only had one life.

"You..." Shui Leqing was furious. Boom, his entire body surged with energy, unleashing unprecedented killing intent.

Qin Chen laughed coldly and said, "What about me? Do I owe you anything? Don't point fingers at me. What I want to do doesn't require your orders. Even though you're a disciple of the Demon Sword Sect, it doesn't mean you can do as you please here."

Hiss!

The crowd gasped in surprise. Too arrogant! This guy was completely unafraid of death.

Moreover, he had easily crushed Hua Jingou, a genius from Fire Cloud Fortress. Didn't he fear that people from Fire Cloud Fortress would come to trouble him? Or was it that he had an even bigger backing?

The crowd shook, each realizing something.

That’s right, how could an ordinary force cultivate such a terrifying genius? This person was definitely a top genius from a certain force, which was why he was so unafraid. It was very possible that the force he belonged to was even above the Demon Sword Sect.

Otherwise, why hadn't the world-class geniuses from the Demon Sword Sect, like Shui Leqing and the others, moved against that kid after being humiliated like this?

It simply didn’t make sense.

"Does anyone else want to come up?" Qin Chen sneered, looking at the crowd.

Silence.

Everyone looked at each other. At this moment, who would dare to step forward? If Hua Jingou from Fire Cloud Fortress could be killed just like that, even the seed disciples from the Demon Sword Sect couldn't stop him. If they stepped up, wouldn't it be seeking death?

One by one, they began to retreat.

Ji Ruyue chuckled coldly. These guys were truly bullies who feared the strong. No wonder the Northern Heaven Domain had never developed; with such characters, it would be strange if they could develop.

"Everyone, continue. I’ll go ahead."

Leng Xingfeng's figure flickered, and he dashed directly toward the Sword Intent Tower.

Buzz!

The entire Sword Intent Tower became enveloped in a black sword intent aura, and a dark passage opened up at the entrance.

"Right, the Sword Intent Tower."

"The third test of the Demon Sword inheritance, and also the final test."

"It is rumored that if one reaches the seventh level of the Sword Intent Tower, they can glimpse the true mysteries of Sword Intent and step into a new realm. At that time, they will become a king among swordsmen."
