“Chen Jiuyang!”
Madame Ning and the martial artists of the Jiangnan Sect were horrified to see Chen Jiuyang holding a bloody human head.
Madame Ning’s face changed drastically, then she calmly said in a cold voice, “Young Master Chen, killing people in the Suzhou and Hangzhou area, you will have to give the Jiangnan Sect and the Six Gates an explanation.”
Chen Jiuyang said indifferently, “What explanation is there to give for this matter?”
Chen Jiuyang pointed to a camera on his ornate robe: “I wished to visit Madame Ning of the Jiangnan Sect, but unexpectedly, the people of the Jiangnan Sect attacked me on sight. I was defending myself passively, which led to the killing of this person.”
“My woman is a former constable of the Six Gates, and I am aware of these basic laws.”
“Instead, Madame Ning, you owe me a reasonable explanation. Just now, I heard with my own ears you poisoning my woman and calling me a good-for-nothing.”
Chen Jiuyang threw the head in his hand in front of them and raised his Yan Sheng Saber: “Do you think I, this good-for-nothing, am easy to bully?”
“I came with goodwill to resolve the grievances with your Jiangnan Sect, yet you intended to poison my woman.”
“You need to give me a reasonable explanation.”
At this, Madame Ning’s face turned cold: “Young Master Chen, you’ve gone too far. Do you really think my Jiangnan Sect is easy to bully? Go, show Young Master Chen some color.”
Madame Ning did not fear Chen Jiuyang much. No matter how talented Chen Jiuyang was, he had only just broken through to the Earth Realm and was not a threat.
A martial artist at the Earth Realm beside Madame Ning sneered, “As you command!”
Immediately, the Earth Realm martial artist lunged at Chen Jiuyang: “Young Master, you are too confident. I’m afraid you will disappear from my Jiangnan Sect’s Ning family today…”
Before he could finish speaking, the Yan Sheng Saber flashed with cold light!
Black flame saber energy surged towards the Grandmaster of the Earth Realm.
“Crack—”
The Earth Realm martial artist’s body was instantly severed, and his head flew off, his eyes still filled with astonishment: “How is this possible!”
He then died completely.
At this, Madame Ning’s face completely changed!
Chen Jiuyang’s combat power was so formidable that their Grandmaster of the Earth Realm was killed by Chen Jiuyang in a single exchange.
Madame Ning took a deep breath and forced a smile: “Young Master Chen, I will give you a satisfactory explanation regarding the matter of ambushing your woman.”
“I hope this matter can be resolved peacefully, without harming the harmony between our Jiangnan Sect and the Chen family.”
Chen Jiuyang’s expression was indifferent, his eyes flashing with cold light: “When you made a move against my woman, there was no harmony between the Jiangnan Sect and the Chen family!”
“If this matter gets out, won’t everyone be able to bully me, Chen Jiuyang!”
“Whoosh—”
The cold light of the Yan Sheng Saber reappeared. In the blink of an eye, Chen Jiuyang unleashed dozens of strikes, killing everyone present except Madame Ning.
Every martial artist died with their eyes wide open, having lost their lives before they could even react.
Chen Jiuyang: “However, I have my own principles. I only punish the main culprits and do not harm others. Madame Ning, you are a person of some standing. If you wish to live, you must give me a satisfactory explanation.”
Madame Ning’s expression changed several times, then she smiled: “I wonder what Young Master Chen desires? Money, power, medicinal resources, or my body?”
Although Madame Ning was in her thirties, she was extremely well-preserved, and anyone who saw her would praise her alluring charm.
Chen Jiuyang chuckled: “Please respect yourself, Madame Ning. I don’t like old women.”
Madame Ning’s smile immediately stiffened: “Then what does Young Master Chen desire?”
Chen Jiuyang: “Madame Ning, the Jiangnan Sect has been acting rather improperly. If you can hand over the buyer and seller information of your financial chains, I can spare your life.”
Madame Ning looked at Chen Jiuyang with a hint of confusion, but then she said, “Chen…”
“Who!”
Chen Jiuyang suddenly roared and turned, slashing out with the Yan Sheng Saber. A divine intent technique resembling a soaring eagle attacked Chen Jiuyang from behind.
Chen Jiuyang shattered the divine intent technique with a single saber strike. When he turned back, Madame Ning had vanished without a trace.
Chen Jiuyang unleashed his divine soul and sensed that seven or eight Grandmasters of the Earth Realm were rushing towards him within a radius of several hundred meters, intending to surround and kill him.
“As expected of a major sect that has presided over Suzhou and Hangzhou for many years. Such a reaction speed. They probably haven’t deployed their full strength yet. Although I have broken through to the Earth Realm, it’s best to conceal my full strength.” Chen Jiuyang pondered for a moment and decided to retreat. With such a large enterprise as the Jiangnan Sect, he didn’t believe Madame Ning could escape.
Then, Chen Jiuyang flew through the air, choosing a direction without enemies, and retreated safely.
Upon returning to the Chen family in Suzhou and Hangzhou, he explained the situation to the Chen family patriarch.
The Chen family patriarch nodded slowly: “This matter was handled well. You did not attack anyone outside of the conflict or ordinary people.”
“Martial artists attacking ordinary people is a grave taboo. Once discovered, the martial arts world will unite to eliminate such degenerate martial artists.”
“The Jiangnan Sect is so large, and Madame Ning cannot escape anywhere. At most, she will call for more people to bolster her confidence and negotiate.
“Our Chen family’s influence in Suzhou and Hangzhou is indeed weak, hehe. However, you, Jiuyang, are now the son-in-law of the Han family. The Han family may not be prominent in Suzhou and Hangzhou, but they are one of the top powers here.”
“There is no need to worry.”
The Chen family patriarch was truly afraid that Chen Jiuyang would cause trouble, and Chen Jiuyang’s handling of affairs was not smooth enough. Therefore, after Chen Jiuyang finished his business, he intended to lecture him.
“I will send someone to escort Ji Lengyue to Mount Emei to learn martial arts tomorrow. She is a direct disciple of the Emei Sect’s Sect Master. With this status, no one will gossip about her.”
Chen Jiuyang pondered for a moment: “I understand. Lengyue has already avenged her great enemy, so it’s good for her to go learn martial arts and calm her state of mind.”
In more than half a month, they had already thoroughly investigated who had killed Ji Lengyue’s father. This person was a martial artist of the Profound Realm and had been by Madame Ning’s side just now. Chen Jiuyang’s second kill was this person. He brought this person’s corpse back to the Chen family. Upon seeing the corpse, Ji Lengyue cried inconsolably.
Chen Jiuyang did not disturb Ji Lengyue but stood outside with the Chen family patriarch chatting.
The two stood there for an entire night. The next morning, Ji Lengyue emerged from her room with swollen eyes and threw herself into Chen Jiuyang’s arms: “Jiuyang, thank you.”
“If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have been able to avenge my father in this lifetime.”
“My mother was also very happy when she learned this information. When I called her, I finally heard her laughter.”
Chen Jiuyang comforted her with a smile: “Lengyue, your great enemy has been avenged. You can also go to Fengcheng to bring your aunt over for a change of scenery, and explain some things to her.”
Ji Lengyue nodded, then reluctantly pulled away from Chen Jiuyang’s embrace: “When you are enfeoffed as a marquis, I will become your woman.”
With that, Ji Lengyue, with a blush on her face, got into the car and left.
Chen Jiuyang gazed in the direction Ji Lengyue had left and sighed softly. Then, constables from the Suzhou and Hangzhou Six Gates arrived:
“Chen Jiuyang, you’re in trouble. Come back to the Six Gates with us.”
These constables had their firearms aimed at Chen Jiuyang.
This gave Chen Jiuyang a bad feeling.
