Martial Master

The others were not fools; in an instant, they all understood Yun Dongguang's intentions.

"Hmph, the reward set by this state lord will naturally be honored. No need for your reminders."

Yun Dongguang realized that his plan to shift the blame had backfired, inciting public rage. With a lift of his hand, two ancient Saint veins appeared between heaven and earth, emitting astonishing Saint aura, making countless Earth Saint martial artists envious.

One Earth grade ancient Saint vein is enough to establish a force like Tian Yue City. Two are no small number even for half-step Heaven Saints.

"These are two ancient Saint veins," Yun Dongguang said with a calm face.

Boom! Qin Chen waved his large hand, directly grabbing the two ancient Saint veins and tossing them into his storage ring. He sneered, "And you call yourself the Yun State Lord, so stingy."

"You..." Yun Dongguang trembled with anger, unable to utter a single word. After holding back for a long time, he said "farewell" and turned to leave. He couldn't stay any longer; for Qin Chen, he had lost five ancient Saint veins.

Five ancient Saint veins, even for him as the Yun State Lord, were a considerable fortune, yet he failed to kill Qin Chen. He feared he would go mad if he stayed any longer.

"Hold on."

Qin Chen coldly spoke, stopping him again.

"I have already given two ancient Saint veins as a reward. What more do you want?"

Yun Dongguang's eyes flashed fiercely, wishing he could strike Qin Chen down with one palm.

"Yun State Lord, don't pretend to be a good person. Others might not know, but how could I not know that the Thirteen Thieves were summoned by you? You colluded with them to assassinate me, and now you've lost both the battle and your troops. You must be feeling 'great' inside, right?"

Qin Chen said coldly.

"What? The Thirteen Thieves were called by the Yun State Lord?"

Everyone present was shocked, staring at Qin Chen in horror. If this were true, Yun Dongguang would definitely become the target of public criticism. Colluding with the Thirteen Thieves who wreaked havoc across several states and exterminated countless forces—Guanghan Mansion wouldn't spare him.

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

As expected, Yun Dongguang erupted in fury, his body suddenly radiating a terrifying killing intent, sweeping out like an ocean and striking Qin Chen fiercely.

"Yun Dongguang, stop."

"Yun State Lord, let's discuss this."

Tian Xing Zhenren, Tian He Laogua, and others spoke up one after another. Swish, Tian Xing Zhenren flickered, hurriedly blocking in front of Qin Chen to shield him from Yun Dongguang's killing intent.

"You all step aside. This child has slandered me. If I don't get an explanation, how can I stand in Yun State in the future?"

Yun Dongguang said coldly.

"Qin Chen, do you have evidence?"

Elder Zhu Ye also spoke in a deep voice. This was a major event that could not be ignored.

"No evidence, but it was confessed by the first thief himself."

Qin Chen laughed coldly. "Of course, Yun Dongguang State Lord might claim that the first thief deliberately framed you, but without concrete evidence, no one can do anything to Yun State Lord. However, everyone here isn't a fool. The Thirteen Thieves suddenly appeared in Yun State, established their base outside the Yun State Governor's residence, and even had such free access to it. What more evidence is needed?"

"Yun Dongguang, I assert that you are the one. The lack of evidence today doesn't mean there won't be any in the future. As the Yun State Lord, you colluded with the Thirteen Thieves, exterminating forces across several states. What Yun State Lord—you're just a pest to Yun State."

"I'm putting it out there today. If I get the chance, I will surely annihilate your Yun family. Yun Dongguang State Lord, go back and prepare for your funeral."

Killing intent surged from Qin Chen, chilling to the bone.

"You seek death!"

Yun Dongguang's eyes turned red. Being berated by a junior like this, how could he endure it? Moreover, Qin Chen revealed his secret dealings with the Thirteen Thieves—damnable.
