Chapter 283: 282 Chapter [The Nocturne of Slaughter Begins]Asura, the number one war general of the Xuanyuan family, looked to be about forty years old. His stature wasn’t very tall or intimidating, yet he possessed an air of authority that made all of the first-rate assassins in the Xuanyuan family tremble—just as the black-clad assassin had said, Asura’s strength was unfathomable. Very few had ever seen him take action. It was such a person who had condensed powerful Superpower into a small envelope. If it weren’t for Ye Tianchen waking up, it’s feared that not only the Ye family but the entire villa district would have been blown to the sky and leveled. This was an opponent that even Ye Tianchen had to take seriously. Xuanyuan Xuanyu had been arrogant and domineering all his life, and even now, when he was so old that one foot was in the grave, he still refused to admit defeat. Once a murderous figure, he would never allow anyone to desecrate the prestige of the Xuanyuan family. Even if the Xuanyuan family were entirely in the wrong, they would never allow anyone to challenge them. Everyone had to be killed—such was the dominance of the Xuanyuan family, and even in his old age, Xuanyuan Xuanyu’s haughty spirit remained unyielding. "I can’t be sure I can kill Ye Tianchen, but I will protect the Xuanyuan family with my life. That is what I must do!" Asura said calmly. Hearing Asura’s words, Xuanyuan Xuanyu couldn’t help but feel startled. He had never seen Asura so composed, unnaturally so. In the past, no matter the enemy the Xuanyuan family faced, as long as Asura took action, he could always kill them. Asura’s strength was no bluff, and Xuanyuan Xuanyu had always believed that with Asura there, the Xuanyuan family had nothing to worry about. Long before retreating from the public eye many years ago, Xuanyuan Xuanyu had started to gather a large number of assassins. Xuanyuan Xuanyu was a ruthless character; he believed that hiring bodyguards, even first-rate ones, was far inferior to top-notch assassins from the jianghu. Assassins were cruel and made swift, decisive kills, which was exactly what Xuanyuan Xuanyu wanted, revealing how ruthless he was. Therefore, it was not surprising that all the guards on the Xuanyuan family’s deserted island were not ordinary bodyguards or even exceptional first-rate ones, but all were first-rate assassins. No wonder Wuxue and Wang Jie, who had infiltrated the island during the day, felt a strange sensation when they saw the bodyguards standing not far off. Those men were filled with a murderous aura, and each of them was highly skilled. "Asura, you grew up in my Xuanyuan family since childhood; how have I treated you?" Xuanyuan Xuanyu glanced at Asura and asked. "Like a father and son!" Asura answered. "Since you are aware of that, I’m telling you now, the Xuanyuan family is where it is today because I, Xuanyuan Xuanyu, have been ruthless all my life. I have always been the one to kill others; nobody has ever killed me. For all these years, nobody has dared to lay a finger on the Xuanyuan family’s door. Ye Tianchen is the first, and I must have him dead. This time, I want every person who comes to attack the Xuanyuan family to leave with no return!" Xuanyuan Xuanyu roared with strong and domineering authority. "I will do my best, but I can feel that Ye Tianchen is very strong!" Asura still said very little and remained calm. "I think no matter how strong he is, he can’t be stronger than you. You’ve just recently broken through another Superpower Realm, and your strength is greater than before. You count as one of the top experts in all of China. Ye Tianchen is just twenty years old; how can he be your match?" Xuanyuan Xuanyu did not believe Asura’s words, thinking that Asura was either being modest or overestimating Ye Tianchen. "In both the Ancient Martial Sects and the Superpower World, strength is never determined by age. Older might just mean a bit more practical experience, but that’s not necessarily what decides victory in a fight. Especially in the Superpower World, there are those who are born with immense Superpowers that leave others far behind!" Asura said indifferently. "Hmph, I don’t care about whether it’s innate or acquired; I just want you to kill Ye Tianchen and all those who have come to attack the Xuanyuan family!" Xuanyuan Xuanyu said with a cold snort. "I will do my best!" Asura repeated those four words. "Alright, you may leave; I hope to hear good news!" Xuanyuan Xuanyu looked at Asura and said. Asura said no more and turned to leave the hall, vanishing into the darkness at the doorway. He was very strong, a master with formidable power in his realm; such an aura and presence could only manifest once one attained a certain level—it wasn’t something that could be faked. After Asura had left, Xuanyuan Qiu quickly entered the hall and spoke to his father, Xuanyuan Xuanyu, "Dad, you’ve made Asura exert all his power, haven’t you?" "Yes, Asura is not a ruthless person. Many times he acts out of compulsion, and if we don’t force him to kill all the attackers this time, our Xuanyuan family will be in great trouble!" Xuanyuan Xuanyu said with a cold laugh. "With this play act by us father and son, Asura will definitely not doubt us. He will protect the Xuanyuan family to the death!" Xuanyuan Qiu said with a sneer as well. "I have no doubts that Asura will protect the Xuanyuan family to the death, but I am afraid he won’t give his all and refrain from killing. That’s why I had you act out this scene with me," Xuanyuan Xuanyu also said with a smile. "Hmph, that ignorant Ye Tianchen doesn’t know what’s coming to him. As long as Asura makes a move, he is doomed to die. Everyone must die!" Xuanyuan Qiu said fiercely. Little did they know, at the very moment Xuanyuan Xuanyu and his son Xuanyuan Qiu were scheming, Asura stood atop the roof of the hall, listening to everything calmly, without a ripple of emotion. With a flash, he left; he was going to stop Ye Tianchen and the others and kill them, even knowing that Xuanyuan Xuanyu and his son were calculating and using him, Asura had no other choice. "Asura was raised by our Xuanyuan family from the start. Every time there was a mission, he had to undertake it, even if he had a hundred reasons not to. He’s a person who values relationships deeply; that’s exactly what I took advantage of!" Xuanyuan Xuanyu said with a cold laugh. More than thirty years ago, a middle-aged man brought Asura to a deserted island. At that time, Asura was just a child under ten years old, but even then, he had already exhibited the beginnings of a superpower, such as telekinesis. This caught the attention of Xuanyuan Xuanyu; as the helmsman of a large family, he naturally recognized that what Asura was exhibiting was a superpower. He thought, if Asura’s superpower continued to grow stronger until it became extremely powerful, how great would it be to use it for the Xuanyuan family? Since then, Xuanyuan Xuanyu kept both the middle-aged man and Asura on the deserted island. It wasn’t long before he had people handle the task of killing the middle-aged man, leaving only Asura behind. With nowhere to go, Asura could only remain on the island, where, from a young age, he was subjected to bloody and brutal training so he would find killing people as simple as slicing a watermelon, intending to turn Asura fully into a killing machine. However, for some reason, Asura always had a kind heart. But being trained and forced day after day, he eventually became cold-hearted, always wearing a chilling expression. Fortunately, whenever there was a strong enemy, Xuanyuan Xuanyu would command Asura to attack. Asura had grown up in the Xuanyuan family, and Xuanyuan Xuanyu had raised him, so each time he was forced to kill, he couldn’t help but act, being a person who deeply valued relationships and knew gratitude. At this moment, Ye Tianchen, leading the Thirteen Heavenly Kings, had already reached the edge of the deserted island. The moment they hit the water, Ye Tianchen had already activated the Superpower Isolation Net, so they didn’t have to fear or hide. Two assault boats charged straight towards the deserted island.

Suddenly, the assassins standing on the edge of the island were caught by surprise, but they also reacted very quickly. Snipers started firing at Ye Tianchen and his group, but all their shots were blocked by Ye Tianchen’s Superpower Light Shield, to no effect. Boom! Boom! The two assault boats stopped at the edge of the island. Ye Tianchen and his group rushed onto the island with incredible speed. Wang Jie was at the forefront, his Qi Force piercing through the forehead of an assassin, instantly killing him, while Wuxue wasn’t slow either, swiftly breaking another assassin’s neck. "Except for the elderly, women, and children, everyone else can be eliminated. I want the Xuanyuan family to be wiped out from both the underworld and the righteous path tonight!" Ye Tianchen said coldly. "Yes, big brother!" the Thirteen Heavenly Kings replied loudly. "Disperse!" With a wave of his hand, Ye Tianchen sent the Thirteen Heavenly Kings scattering in all directions, each launching their assault towards the center of the island where the Xuanyuan family estate was located. The sounds of shouting, screams, gunfire, and explosions were everywhere. Each member of the Thirteen Heavenly Kings was a top-notch expert and a warrior at heart, all aware that this was their first battle and failure was not an option. They all brought their true strength to bear, and the assassins on the island, despite their abilities, were no match for the Thirteen Heavenly Kings. At this time, Ye Tianchen sensed a very powerful presence and a smile appeared on his lips. Hands in his pockets, he casually walked towards the nearby woods, where a very powerful person was waiting for him—Asura. The intuition between experts was very accurate and strong. After leaving the Xuanyuan residence, Asura had chosen this grove to wait for Ye Tianchen, ready for a life-or-death battle to repay the many years of nurturing by the Xuanyuan family. Swish! Swish! Just as Ye Tianchen was about to enter the grove, two figures charged at him from both sides, each wielding a large knife aimed directly at his head! Swish! The blades missed as Ye Tianchen disappeared into thin air. The two Xuanyuan family assassins were shocked. But soon, they started sweating cold sweat because Ye Tianchen was already behind them, arms wrapped around their necks. (To be continued.
