Chapter 30: Teach a lesson
Although Chen Xiang’s appearance was pretty simple, he looked like a teen who had just left his mother’s embrace. But just from his roar alone, it was evidently clear to the bodyguards how powerful Chen Xiang was,,so they did not dare to move against him.
”You are the shopkeeper here?”
After hearing his words, all the bodyguards and the people watching from outside burst into laughter.
”You don’t even know the shopkeeper and still came here to make trouble?” One body guard said while laughing.
”You have not heard about shopkeeper Hua, right? You should have heard of the city’s third young master! Our shopkeeper Hua is Governor Hua's third child, you are just seeking death by trying to provoke shopkeeper Hua!” Another bodyguard said as he sneered.
[TLN: Governor here is City lord (城主)]
After the Huafu wearing man heard people mention his name, his face could not help but reveal a sliver of pride, he nodded and said: ”I'm the shopkeeper of this place, Hua Xin, why have you come!”
[TLN: Huafu is a Chinese noble dress]
”Pooh!”
[TLN: spitting in contempt]
Chen Xiang laughingly said: ”I don't give a shit! If you really had some skill, you would not even be here to be a shopkeeper by your father’s arrangement, when you came here to be a shopkeeper, in your father's eyes, you were already deemed hopeless!”
This remark startled everyone, they did not expect Chen Xiang would dare to say something like this face to face! Hua Xin's complexion turned extremely ugly, Chen Xiang’s statement wasn’t far from the truth. As the son of one of the prominent figures capable of influencing one region, coming to this place and taking care of business really was nothing to be proud of, only the status was somewhat noble.
”I’ll ask you again, was our store smashed by you and your people?” Chen Xiang’s complexion became incomparably cold.
”So what!” One bodyguard with face full of anger said: ”Right, shopkeeper Hua took us there!”
Hua Xin’s face muscles started to twitch: ”Turns out that you are here for revenge! Indeed it was I who brought people to that store.”
The crowd of bodyguards behind Hua Xin started to shout out about how they damaged the store.
Chen Xiang coldly said: ”You are only a pack of dogs, if desired, your master will not even hesitate to sell you lackeys as slaves, what are you so happy about? Glad to have found a good master?!”
”MONGREL, YOU SEEK DEATH!” One bodyguard angrily cursed and already started to rush towards him, meanwhile, in Chen Xiang's hand, threatening hot flames suddenly appeared.
A ”Pa!” sound reverberated and immediately after that, painful screams were heard.
Chen Xiang, with his True Qi, congealed out a long whip and struck the face of the bodyguard which then made the bodyguard fly away! A charred black mark was left on the face of the bodyguard.
Seeing this, the group of bodyguards, although they were shocked, still rushed at him. After all, there were many of them while the opponent was only one.
Chen Xiang said in a cold voice, ”Since you have already admitted to doing it, I have decided not to forgive you!”
Suddenly, a scorching hot Qi burst out from Chen Xiang’s body before he fiercely started to wave the fire whip in his hand. He lashed continuously with a speed so fast that other’s eyes could not even get a glimpse of it, it even produced numerous after images. For everyone, it was similar to Chen Xiang holding multiple whips and lashing at them.
Limitless fire whips, that were like innumerable salamanders, overwhelmingly lashed towards the group of bodyguards! Hua Xin and his bunch couldn’t even dodge, just in the blink of an eye, they were whipped innumerable times with the fire whip! The fire whip continued to lash at them with madness, lashing them on nearly every part of their body. This had left numerous charred black marks on them, burning them down to their marrow, making them yell due to the intermittent pain.
In just a few moments, each person had at least three whip-marks.
