Chapter 628: Be Decisive if You Are a Man (2/2)

“Elder Brother Tianhua is going to draw his sword. That brat is a goner for sure.”

“That’s right. Elder Brother Tianhua’s sword intent has reached forty percent comprehension. After he draws his sword, he will be able to finish off this person in ten moves.”

“No doubt this brat will die today. Even if Feng Tianming s.h.i.+elds him, it will be no use.”

All of Feng Tianhua’s supporters spoke out. They were clearly frustrated at Xiao Chen’s sudden appearance.

“Xiu!”

Feng Tianhua drew his sword, and a surging sword intent spread out. His entire sword trembled continuously. In that instant, all the swords around could not help but vibrate in harmony with his.

He leaped up with a venomous look in his eyes. His Quintessence gathered on his sword and created a sharp sword light together with his forty-percent-comprehended sword intent.

Feng Tianhua’s supporters immediately revealed expressions of joy. After they defeated this brat, they would be able to add one more to Feng Tianming’s list of wrongdoings.

“Qiang! Qiang!”

However, before Feng Tianhua’s supporters could stop smiling, Xiao Chen already drew his Lunar Shadow Saber from its scabbard. He used his sixty-percent-comprehended saber intent and his Quintessence to form a dazzling purple saber light.

“Ka ca!”

When the saber light and sword light clashed, the sword light did not stand a chance. It broke in half like an ordinary piece of wood.

When Feng Tianhua’s sword light disappeared, only half his sword remained. The other half had shattered in the air and rained down metal sc.r.a.ps, creating tiny tears in s.p.a.ce.

With one move, Xiao Chen broke his opponent’s sword in half, defeating him.

Such strength left not only Feng Tianhua’s supporters dumbfounded, even Feng Tianming himself was astonished, his mouth gaping open wide.

Feng Tianhua had used this sword for several decades. He had already established a deep connection with it. When the sword broke, he immediately vomited a mouthful of blood.

Feng Tianhua revealed an expression of disbelief on his pale face. He asked, “Who in the world are you?”

“There is no need for someone who is about to die to ask so many questions!”

Xiao Chen stomped on the ground and hacked out with his saber continuously. Saber lights rained down like a storm as he took advantage of Feng Tianhua’s weaponless state to try and kill him.

A strong aura enveloped Xiao Chen. From his posture, it looked like he intended to kill Feng Tianhua, not even allowing him a chance to flee.

The expressions of Feng Tianhua’s supporters immediately changed. They quickly leaped into the air and attacked Xiao Chen, trying to save Feng Tianhua.

However, these people were only half-step Martial Monarchs. After all, Martial Monarchs are not exactly common.

The attacks of Essence could not break Xiao Chen’s Quintessence s.h.i.+eld, so there was no need for him to pay them too much mind. All he had to do was avoid their killing moves.

After heavily injuring Feng Tianhua, Xiao Chen s.h.i.+fted his gaze to the minor characters. He used the Thunder Shadow Chop, and afterimages flickered.

He sent out seven attacks instantly, knocking down all the people hara.s.sing him. They all keeled over in pain.

Feng Tianhua and his group all fell to Xiao Chen’s hand quickly. They no longer had the imposing air they had previously. No one dared to say anything.

Ying Yue watched as Xiao Chen sheathed his saber. A look of appreciation flashed in her pretty eyes. She asked softly, “Mister Feng, are you still unable to make the decision?

“They have the Wan Clan to support them, but you have the support of the Great Qin Nation’s Royal Court. The Royal Court will never stand by idly and watch the Feng Clan’s business get swallowed up by the Wan Clan.”

Feng Mingtian’s heart turned cold; he knew that there was no going back. He instructed the five people behind him, “These people are colluding with outsiders to harm the clan. Kill them all, and show no mercy!”

Xiao Chen ignored the five guards who started killing. He walked directly to Feng Tianming and said, “Prepare the best wars.h.i.+p. We have to make use of the next seven days to catch up.”

Feng Tianming shook his head and said, “Seven days would not be enough for an ordinary wars.h.i.+p to reach the Great Jin Nation. I’m sure that Wan Feng is using the Martial G.o.d Palace’s wars.h.i.+p.”

After muttering to herself, Ying Yue said, “Use our Imperial Dragon Legion’s flags.h.i.+p, the Imperial Dragon. Although it is not comparable to the Martial G.o.d Palace’s wars.h.i.+p, if you pick the right route, you should be able to arrive in five days.”

Feng Tianming’s eyes lit up. He said hurriedly, “Many thanks, Princess Ying Yue.”

She smiled gently and said, “I cannot leave the Great Qin Nation, so I will not be able to follow you. I will send some people to coordinate with you at the border.”

The Great Qin Nation could not openly offend the Wan Clan. Xiao Chen and Feng Tianming understood this. For Ying Yue to lend them the Imperial Dragon Legion’s flags.h.i.+p was already a great help.

After Feng Tianming exhibited a heavy hand, the chaotic situation finally stabilized. As for gathering the elders, he no longer had time to bother with it.

Feng Tianming held a map in the great hall. He discussed the best route with his five guards.

Flying in a straight line was impossible. Some places had large numbers of horrifying high-ranked flying Spirit Beasts blocking the way.

Some places had spatial storms that would shred anything that flew into those areas to bits. Some places were the territories of ancient clans; they could not enter that airs.p.a.ce without permission.

If they followed the regular trade routes, it would take them seven days to reach the Wan Clan’s headquarters in the Great Jin Nation from the Imperial Capital, even if they used the Imperial Dragon Legion’s flags.h.i.+p.

Hence, they had to pick areas that they would normally avoid and break through forcefully to save some time.

Xiao Chen placed the wooden box wrapped in black cloth behind him on the table. Then, he sat down and rested.

After about fifteen minutes:

“Xiao Chen, we have picked the route. We plan to make the breakthrough in the airs.p.a.ce of Black Smoke Mountain Range. This will allow us to save two days.”
