C206 (2/2)
Tang Huan could not help but reveal a surprised look in his eyes. Back when he was in Furious Waves City, he already knew that Lu Chen was a tyrant. However, looking at the current situation, Lu Chen's strength far exceeded his expectations. Could he be a Martial Lord of the eighth step instead of a peak-stage Martial Master?
Beside Tang Huan, the red silk ribbon in Mu Yan's hand had already been secretly withdrawn. A pair of beautiful eyes swept between Tang Huan and Lu Chen, filled with intense curiosity.
”Lord Thousand Generals, do you know who this old man is now?” Lu Chen stopped in his tracks, smiling with narrowed eyes.
”You, you are …”
Astonishment flashed across Zhang Ye's eyes, as if he had recognized Lu Chen's origins. However, he swallowed the words that were just about to reach his mouth. Soon after, Zhang Ye took a deep breath, glanced at Tang Huan, and wiped the blood at the corner of his mouth, then growled with a gloomy face: ”Let's go!”
”Wait a minute, it won't be too late to leave the items behind!” Lu Chen leisurely said with a smile on his face.
”What is it?”
Zhang Ye's expression changed.
Lu Chen smiled but did not speak. He simply gazed at Zhang Ye quietly.
On the other hand, Zhang Ye's face was getting more and more unsightly. The back of his right hand which was holding onto the handle of his sabre was suddenly tightened and relaxed. He looked like he wanted to attack but didn't dare to. After a long while, Zhang Ye gritted his teeth and took out a small black bag from his bosom and threw it towards Lu Chen, ”Since you want it, then take it!”
Lu Chen received the small bag and nodded his head in satisfaction. He then waved his hand and said, ”You can leave now, but he has to stay!”
As he spoke, Lu Chen pointed at Shi Qian.
”Uncle Zhang!”
Shi Qian woke up with a start, and his face turned pale with fright. He wanted to run towards Zhang Ye.
But before he could even move a withered hand claw grabbed his neck, a wave of cold immediately rushed from his neck to his coccyx. Shi Qian's body froze and he was unable to move. He was momentarily stunned, and he cried out involuntarily, ”Uncle Zhang, save me! Uncle Zhang, save me …”
”Let him go!”
Zhang Ye was furious, the veins on his neck were popping out, ”Old man, don't go overboard. Don't think that you came from that place. This general is afraid of you!”
”Since that's the case, why didn't the Lord Thousand Generals use a saber?” Lu Chen calmly brandished his saber.
”You …”
Zhang Ye's face was flushed, and he was breathing heavily. He was obviously angry to the extreme. His right hand was trembling slightly, but he still held himself back and did not make a move.
”What this old man hates the most in his life is this kind of shameless person who plays with kindness. Since this old man has seen it today, I will definitely not let it go.” Lu Chen narrowed his eyes and smiled.
”Uncle Zhang...”
Shi Qian seemed to have sensed something and roared, his handsome face filled with despair. At the same time, a cracking sound rang out, and Lu Chen used some force to break his neck. He then lifted his arm, throwing Shi Qian's body towards Zhang Ye.
Zhang Ye took it over and glanced at it. His face was twisted, but he didn't say anything. He just waved his hand and walked out of the cave. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of people had disappeared without a trace.
However, as if he had done something insignificant, Lu Chen smiled and turned towards Tang Huan.
Li He and the rest held their breaths with rapt attention. When their gazes landed on Tang Huan, their faces were filled with shock. Not only did he possess a powerful weapon that could kill vengeful spirits, but the old servant beside him also possessed such a terrifying strength. First, he forced Zhang Ye to retreat weirdly, then he forced Zhang Ye to hand over an item, and finally crushed Shi Qian to death in front of Zhang Ye.
What was even more inconceivable was that even though Zhang Ye was a Stage Seven Martial Master, he did not resist at all. It was as if he feared the power behind the old man?
