“Death is just death.”
He snorted coldly, and with a boom, terrifying domain power spread out, instantly enveloping the Holy Son of Jinzhao and trapping him.
“Old man, what do you want to do?” The Holy Son of Jinzhao sneered, not believing that the other party dared to act against him.
Zhao Ruhui and the others also changed their expressions dramatically.
“What do I want to do?” Qin Chen sneered, “Of course, I want to teach you a lesson. Is it only allowed for you to make a move and not for us to retaliate?”
“Just based on you guys?” The Holy Son of Jinzhao scoffed, “I am the Holy Son of the Alchemy City. If you have the ability, try to touch me.”
Slap!
Before the Holy Son of Jinzhao could finish his sentence, he was lifted by his neck by Qin Chen, unable to continue speaking. His feet kicked in a panic, and his face turned green.
“Everyone heard it, he told me to try,” Qin Chen shrugged, seemingly innocent, “He is an alchemist, but this Young Master is also an alchemist. He dared to act against me earlier, which shows he doesn't put the rules of the Alchemy Pavilion in his heart. What do you say, should I hit him?”
“Of course you should!” He didn’t even wait for others to respond and slapped him again.
This slap was very forceful, and the Holy Son of Jinzhao directly spat out a mouthful of blood, along with a few broken teeth. One side of his face swelled up visibly.
Gasp, everyone inhaled sharply, filled with terror.
The so-called hitting a dog requires looking at its owner. After all, he is the Holy Son of the Alchemy City, and his master is even the deputy master of the Alchemy Pavilion, a top figure in the Alchemy City. Is he someone you can just teach a lesson to? But the problem is, Qin Chen was indeed very reasonable.
If Qin Chen really was also an alchemist, then the Holy Son of Jinzhao attacking him directly indeed violated the rules of the Alchemy Pavilion.
In the Alchemy Pavilion, no matter what conflicts arise, direct action is not allowed. The Holy Son of Jinzhao had indeed crossed the line previously.
Without rules, how can there be order?
“Do you dare to hit me?” The Holy Son of Jinzhao was completely stunned. From childhood to adulthood, this was the first time he had seen someone dare to hit him like this.
“I am hitting you.”
Bang bang bang, Qin Chen continued to slap him, feeling exhilarated in his heart before casually tossing the Holy Son of Jinzhao aside.
At this moment, the Holy Son of Jinzhao's face had swelled up like a bun, and he was in a dazed state. Although his injuries were not serious, he had completely lost face.
“Alright, how long are you going to keep him trapped?” Qin Chen said leisurely to the old man.
“Ah?”
The old man beside him was totally confused. Until Qin Chen stopped, he had forgotten to lift the confinement on the Holy Son of Jinzhao. Only then did he suddenly realize and withdrew the domain barrier.
He thought Qin Chen just wanted to scare the Holy Son of Jinzhao, but who knew he would actually dare to take action.
It’s over, it’s over, this little brat has led him to ruin.
The old man was completely desperate. Stopping the Holy Son of Jinzhao and teaching him a lesson were two entirely different concepts. If it was just the former, the Alchemy City might not do anything to him. But now, the Holy Son of Jinzhao was being beaten under his control; would the Alchemy City let him off?
Because the Holy Son of Jinzhao had not been wrong in one of his earlier statements. Although he was not the head of the Alchemy City, as the Holy Son, he represented the reputation of the Alchemy City. Is he someone who can be taught a lesson at will?
This was equivalent to slapping the face of the Alchemy City.
“This little brat has really gotten himself into trouble.” The old man was going crazy; this kid was a disaster.
“Now, do you still dare to be arrogant?” Qin Chen coldly looked at the Holy Son of Jinzhao.
He dared to act like this, naturally having considered it and not acting purely out of impulse.
