Chapter 39 - 39 39 Just Kill!

39: Chapter 39 [Just Kill!] 39: Chapter 39 [Just Kill!] The Xingyi Bagua Slash is the strongest attack move in Xingyi Boxing, and although Wuxue had been practicing Xingyi Boxing for more than a decade, he had yet to perfect this move to its peak. In the apocalypse, as a Divine-level superpower expert, Ye Tianchen had once battled with a grandmaster of Xingyi Boxing and had experienced the might of this ancient martial absolute skill. In that battle, Ye Tianchen nearly lost his life, which speaks volumes about its perilous nature. With the Xingyi Bagua Slash executed by Wuxue, Ye Tianchen stimulated all the superpower energy in the meridians throughout his body and simultaneously activated the Superpower Core in his brain. In this life-and-death crisis, he broke through his superpower level, advancing from Monarch Level to King Level. This elevation in level was a transformation of strength as vast as the difference between heaven and earth. With a loud shout, he managed to break Wuxue’s not yet peak-level Xingyi Bagua Slash. Ye Tianchen smiled, hands tucked in his pockets, as he walked up to Wuxue and spoke the truth: Wuxue’s strength was not weak, but his Xingyi Bagua Slash had not yet reached the peak. Moreover, with Ye Tianchen’s sudden breakthrough and surge in strength, Wuxue was caught off guard, which otherwise might not have resulted in such a swift defeat. “I’ve lost. Just kill me,” Wuxue said, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth as he looked at Ye Tianchen. Wuxue had never imagined that he, the number one assassin in Capital City, with an undefeated record, hired time and time again to instantly eliminate enemies, would fail. Now, defeated despite having used the absolute skill of Xingyi Boxing and overwhelmed by just a loud roar from Ye Tianchen, his pride was deeply wounded, leaving him somewhat disheartened. Ye Tianchen made no particular reaction but leaned against a nearby tree, took out two cigarettes, lit one for himself, took a drag, and casually threw the other to Wuxue. Seeing this, Wuxue was startled and puzzled by Ye Tianchen’s actions. “The victor is king, the vanquished is the villain; I, Wuxue, have lost, I accept it, make your move,” Wuxue said sternly to Ye Tianchen. “I’m not going to kill you. You can go,” Ye Tianchen said with a smile to Wuxue. Wuxue was taken aback; he didn’t expect Ye Tianchen to spare his life, truly an unexpected mercy. “You’re not killing me? But I came to kill you…” Wuxue asked in surprise. “I’m not someone who revels in killing, and besides, you’re a true man, honorable and upright. Train for a few more years and then come challenge me!” After speaking, Ye Tianchen turned and walked away. He genuinely did not wish to kill Wuxue, for he had sensed that Wuxue was not a merciless assassin. If it had been another assassin with Wuxue’s skills, they likely wouldn’t have been so straightforward. It could be said that Wuxue was an assassin with humanity, not one driven by fear or greed for life. Watching Ye Tianchen turn and walk away, Wuxue was momentarily stunned. He suddenly realized that this man, who had become a laughingstock across Capital City, possessed an indescribable domineering regality. He was unafraid of assassination, acted on his own principles, was extraordinarily skilled, and took a cavalier approach to life. “It was the Luo family who sent me. This time I failed to kill you, but the Luo family will have other plans,” Wuxue stood up and said, watching Ye Tianchen’s departing figure. “With your skills, I believe money isn’t an issue for you. The Luo family father and son are despicable and shameless to employ you. I’m actually quite curious,” Ye Tianchen turned back and spoke to Wuxue. Wuxue looked at Ye Tianchen and sighed, “I was orphaned from a young age, raised by a foster father who is now imprisoned in Kyoto Prison. Luo Songcheng promised me that if I could kill you, he would release my foster father!” “What’s your foster father’s name?” Ye Tianchen asked thoughtfully. “Yang Hai!” “Well then, go kill two people for me, and I’ll find a way to get your foster father out of jail,” Ye Tianchen said with a smile. “Who should I kill?” Wuxue asked Ye Tianchen. “Luo Lei and Luo Tao,” Ye Tianchen replied calmly. Hearing Ye Tianchen’s words, Wuxue was stunned; he hadn’t expected Ye Tianchen to ask him to kill two grandsons of Luo Songcheng. The Luo family was a prominent family in Capital City, and it was possible that Luo Songcheng might enter the Military Committee in the upcoming elections. If Luo Lei and Luo Tao were killed, it would be a severe blow to the Luo family and would certainly cause a sensation in Capital City. Actually, during the battle with Wuxue, Ye Tianchen had already thought of this. With Wuxue’s skills, infiltrating the Luo family to carry out assassinations would be a piece of cake. Luo Songcheng, a strong and protective old man, would definitely not let things slide easily. Since he dared to hire someone to kill him, why should Ye Tianchen refrain from acting decively? He would strike at the roots of the Luo family first, letting Luo Songcheng realize that the Ye family is not to be trifled with. “What? Afraid?” Ye Tianchen saw Wuxue standing still and asked with a smile. “It’s not about fear, but have you considered the consequences? If I help you kill Luo Lei and Luo Tao, then there will be an irreconcilable feud between the Luo family and the Ye family. I’m sure you understand that the current Ye family is not a match for the Luo family. The Ye family will surely face a great crisis,” Wuxue glanced at Ye Tianchen and said. “That’s my concern. You just take care of the killing. Also, you can boldly claim it was I, Ye Tianchen, who did the killings. It’s as simple as that!” Ye Tianchen said with a laugh. Wuxue was completely taken aback. He couldn’t fathom the extent of Ye Tianchen’s domineering bravery. Not only was Ye Tianchen asking him to kill two of the Luo family’s grandsons, but he also wanted him to proclaim that it was his own doing. This wasn’t arrogance or conceit, but rather an extraordinary courage beyond the ordinary. “Are you sure?” Wuxue frowned and asked. “Sure, definite, and certain. Go and kill. When I hear the news that Luo Lei and Luo Tao are dead, your father will be released from prison.” After saying this, Ye Tianchen didn’t wait for Wuxue to respond and turned to leave. Originally, Ye Tianchen was prepared to personally kill Luo Lei and Luo Tao. Since Luo Songcheng disregarded his military status and bribed assassins to kill him, he would certainly not spare the Ye family in the future. For such a reckless person, Ye Tianchen would definitely not be courteous. Sёarᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He would not leave any dangers for his family; he must strike back strongly. If it weren’t for his plans to take Li Tie’s life tonight, Ye Tianchen would have definitely gone to the Luo family himself. Weeds must be pulled out by the roots, leaving no endless troubles behind—not Ye Tianchen’s style of doing things. Watching Ye Tianchen leave, Wuxue clenched his fists tightly and left the small grove… Fighting against Wuxue made Ye Tianchen even more aware of one thing: there were too many experts in this lifetime. If his own strength was not strong enough, he wouldn’t be able to protect everything he now possessed. Capital City, a place where many powerful forces and major families stood, was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. To survive in this area was extremely difficult; family competition, the collision between power and power seemed calm, but it was always stormy. You don’t provoke others, yet others provoke you—it’s that simple. Ye Tianchen had long seen that to gain a foothold in Capital City and even prosper the Ye family, an iron-blooded approach was necessary. Simply put, no matter what force provoked them, a strong counter-attack was needed to let these people know that the Ye family was not to be trifled with. That would be enough. Having left the small grove, Ye Tianchen did not go home but hailed a taxi in the villa area and headed to the residence of Li Tie. Tonight, he was going to kill this underworld boss in the Capital City, a lackey of the Qin family, thereby serving as a warning to the Qin family not to think they could lord over others just because they are a first-class family—Ye Tianchen wouldn’t accept that. At that moment, inside the villa where Li Tie lived, Shan Xiong’s arms hung in front of his chest, his face pale, and cold sweat streamed from his forehead as he looked at Li Tie. Slap! Li Tie slammed his hand on the table and fiercely said, “Did Ye Tianchen really say that?” “Yes, Brother Li, this guy, he said to prepare your coffin!” Shan Xiong said somewhat fearfully. Bang! When Li Tie heard what Shan Xiong said, he smashed the teacup in his hand to the ground, shattering it. Having been in Capital City for decades, no one had ever dared to speak to him like that; even the major powers and families in Capital City did not dare to offend him this way. In Li Tie’s view, Ye Tianchen was just a descendant of a third-class family; how could he bear such words. “Hmph, hahahaha…” Suddenly, Li Tie burst out laughing in extreme rage, making Shan Xiong break out in a cold sweat. “Big brother, what, what should we do?” Shan Xiong asked softly. “Good, very good; as long as this bastard dares to come, I’ll make sure he never returns!” Li Tie grated his teeth and said. “Boss, I think we still need to make some preparations; the Ye Tianchen of today can’t be compared with the idiot of the past. He dared to go to Heaven and Earth and beat up Luo Lei, unafraid of making enemies with the Luo family. I fear he might really come to kill you!” Xiao Qing frowned and said. “I’m not afraid of him coming; I’m afraid he won’t come. Shan Xiong, immediately get Shan Ji back here. Tonight, I want Ye Tianchen to come without return,” Li Tie said with a sinister laugh. “Big brother, really, do we really need to call Shan Ji and the others back? If we use guns, I’m afraid…” Shan Xiong said with some concern. Shan Ji was one of Li Tie’s top generals, not only highly skilled but also in charge of an elite gun team in Li Tie’s hands. This elite gun team was rarely put to use because, despite the regular bloodshed in Capital City, after all, it was under the Emperor’s feet, and overt violence was rare. In China, using knives and using guns are two different things; using guns in Capital City was even more serious. “Afraid of what? I want Ye Tianchen, this bastard, to know that underground Capital City is ruled by me, Li Tie!” Li Tie roared, his eyes blood-red. “Got it, big brother!” Watching Shan Xiong turn to leave to handle affairs, Li Tie’s mistress, Xiao Qing, still looked somewhat worried and said, “If we really kill Ye Tianchen, what about the Ye family?” “Hmph! The Ye family has long been in decline. I don’t believe that after killing Ye Tianchen, the Ye family would dare to do anything to me, Li Tie. Besides, doesn’t the Qin family still support us?” Li Tie said, his lips curling into a sinister smile. [PS: Brothers, you are really too awesome; we made the list, so I’m adding more chapters.
