Chinese martial arts! Grandmaster

"Who is this guy? He's so fierce!"

"Something terrible has happened! This kid actually killed the young master of the Xiang family."

"The Xiang family won't let this go. This kid is doomed."

"How did he manage to kill so many people just now? I didn't see him do anything, and all the members of the Xiang family just exploded."

There was a lot of chatter around.

What happened today has blown up too much.

With the death of the Xiang family's young master, the entire Wenzhou prefecture will likely be stained with blood.

At this time,

A busybody stepped forward, leaned close to Chen Jie, and whispered:
"Brother, leave Wenzhou quickly, or you won't be able to leave."

"You killed members of the Xiang family!"

Others nearby also began to whisper and offer their advice:

"The Xiang family patriarch has returned from overseas, saying he wants to restore the Xiang family's glory. He dotes on the young master of the Xiang family. You've caused trouble. Get out of Wenzhou Prefecture immediately."

"That's right, before the Xiang family arrives here, we'll flee overseas."

"If it's any later, you might not be able to leave even if you want to."

"The Xiang family patriarch was a powerful expert at the 'Great Perfection of Meridian Opening and Qi Cultivation' level, and his Seven Deadly Blades were famous throughout the martial arts world."

Chen Jie was taken aback upon hearing this, and exclaimed in surprise:
"How dare an old guy at the Qi Condensation Realm be so arrogant?"

He frowned, sensing that things were not quite as he had imagined.

Being able to shield one's Qi in Wenzhou Prefecture, making it impossible for one's spiritual sense to detect, is something that no martial artist at the Tongmai Gangjin realm could accomplish.

Even if an array is used to shield the flow of qi, a martial artist at the Tongmai Gangjin realm would absolutely not have such an ability.

in addition,

How dare an ordinary martial arts family be so arrogant and domineering in Wenzhou Prefecture?
It's obvious that the Xiang family has powerful backers.

At this time,

Ouyang Xiaoxiao whispered beside her:

"The various forces in Wenzhou Prefecture are intertwined, and the major families have very deep foundations."

"Especially in the last few months, after Ximen Tang swept through the Green Gang, Hongmen and other forces, the major martial arts families recruited a large number of experts, and their power expanded too much."

"Although my brother and I have always lived in Nanchang Prefecture and rarely returned to Wenzhou Prefecture in eastern Zhejiang, we are quite familiar with the various forces here."

"The Xiang family is one of the four great families in the Jiangnan martial arts world, and they are on par with our Ouyang family."

"Although the Xiang family patriarch has returned from overseas and is very powerful, our Ouyang family is not to be trifled with either."

The hero Ouyang, standing nearby, wiped the heavy machine gun in his hand without uttering a sound.

He remained an observer throughout.

Although on the surface, it appears that he killed the striped tiger with a heavy machine gun.

But what happened next really had little to do with him.

His mind was still replaying the 'sonic kill' that Chen Jie had just unleashed!
Is it really the power of the 'Martial Saint'?

impossible!

How could this kid possibly possess the combat power of a 'Martial Saint'?

He thought for a moment, then couldn't help but ask:

"Brother, you killed the Xiang family members, what are your plans now?"

He was finding it increasingly difficult to understand the young man in front of him.

On the surface, they appear harmless and gentle.

but,

The murderous intent that Chen Jie had just unleashed made even the great hero Ouyang dare not breathe.

"The four great martial arts families of Jiangnan? My plan is very simple—!"

Before he could finish speaking, his expression suddenly turned cold.

Then,

He walked towards the eastern district of Wenzhou.

"Brother, wait for me!"

After seeing Chen Jie leave, Master Ouyang quickly followed.

-

Wenzhou Prefecture, Dongcheng District.

The area around the city gate was bustling with activity at this time.

The streets were packed with people, many of whom were martial arts practitioners who had come from all directions.

"Brother, what happened up ahead?"

"A lion eating a person alive, haha—that's amazing! I haven't seen anything this exciting in a long time."

"No way, lions eat people? That's too brutal!"

"Haha—the more ferocious, the more exciting! The scene of a lion tearing a person apart is very thrilling!"

"—"

There was a lot of discussion at the East Gate archway.

People in the martial arts world also enjoy watching a spectacle; in fact, the more bloody it is, the more adrenaline surges.

"What on earth happened? Who is so bold as to allow a lion to tear a person apart in the street?"

"The Dong family is dealing with the government officials, supposedly from the Ximen Hall, haha!"

"When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down! Ever since Prince Qian, Chen Jie, was killed by the Japanese with a single blow, Ximentang has become a rat crossing the street, hated by everyone!"

"No way? Didn't the King of Min pledge allegiance to the Ximen Hall? How could he allow these martial arts families to run rampant?"

"Even the King of Min is in dire straits. It is said that he has been imprisoned by his elders in the Min family and is being held in a dungeon."

"How dare the Dong family lay a hand on the people of Ximen Hall? Aren't they afraid of retaliation?"

"Since they dared to take action against the imperial court, they must have received tremendous support."

The Dong family!

The foremost martial arts family in Jiangnan.

Many martial arts practitioners jumped onto the rooftops, hoping for a better view of the East Gate Archway.

The Dong family is the foremost martial arts family in Jiangnan, a true noble and prestigious clan.

Compared to the other three major families in the Jiangnan martial arts world, its prestige is much greater.

Even within the entire Great Qian Dynasty, the Dong family was a truly top-tier aristocratic family, possessing not only immense family power but also abundant wealth and numerous experts.

Even the Minwang family was extremely wary of the Dong family.

Click—click—!
It is located below the East Gate Archway of Wenzhou Prefecture.

A male lion was seen tearing, chewing, and roaring.

They eat living people!

The lion comes from the African savanna.

Its peak combat power is not particularly strong for martial artists.

Any martial artist who has reached the level of Yi Sui Hua Jin can defeat a lion.

but,

There are now four enormous male lions around.

One of them was lying on the ground, its two front paws pinning down a struggling living person.

Then, the lion bared its sharp fangs and began to devour the living man.

Fresh blood kept gushing out.

A living person's throat is pierced, rendering them unable to make a sound; they can only struggle in agony.

Click—click—!
The grating sound of bones being chewed sent chills down one's spine.

So cruel!

Anyone who saw this scene couldn't help but gasp.

Even some martial arts practitioners shook their heads helplessly, unable to bear watching.

Killing is not scary for people in the martial arts world.

But such a brutal killing, where a lion eats a living person, is simply too cruel.

These four male lions are all adult males weighing over 400 kilograms, and their deep roars are terrifying.

Their fangs are like two incredibly sharp steel knives, exuding a terrifying aura.

What's even more terrifying are their eyes, which are completely blood red.

obviously,
These lions are fed by living people, which is why they are so ferocious and menacing.

The other three male lions lay quietly to one side, waiting for their master's next command.

The lion, which was chewing and tearing at the living person, would occasionally raise its head and roar.

The deep roar of the lion was extremely penetrating.

Beneath the archway of Wenzhou Prefecture, a dozen or so people, tortured beyond recognition, were chained together.

They knelt on the ground, their feet chained to iron cages, a look of despair on their faces.

At this time,

Beneath the archway, a young man sat on a chair. Looking at the people kneeling in a row, he sneered:

"Haha—you lackeys of the Great Qian Dynasty, how dare you come to our Wenzhou Prefecture to run wild."

"What kind of bullshit Ximen Tang is this? In Wenzhou Prefecture, even if you're a tiger, you have to lie down before me; even if you're a dragon, you have to coil up before me."

"The Ximen Hall is finished! Your backer, Prince Qian, Chen Jie, is dead. He was killed by Miyamoto Musashi, the strongest man in the East, on the East China Sea."

“Your Ximentang wiped out the Green Gang and scattered the Hongmen. It’s time to settle this score.”

"It just so happens that the lions I keep have been a bit irritable lately."

“These useless people from your Ximen Hall are just right to feed them.”

"Eating a few of you will calm my lion down for a while."

The dozen or so Ximen Hall experts, chained up, were utterly despondent.

The leader turned and glanced at his men, then roared:

"You members of the Dong family will get your retribution!"

“Once our lord returns, he will not spare the Dong family and will exterminate your entire family.”

The leader had a tangled mess of hair and was covered in wounds.

He exuded a feminine aura, and his martial arts level was the late-stage mastery of the Blood-Moving Pill Force.

In the martial arts world, his skill level is definitely that of a master.

If the higher-ups of Ximen Hall were here, they would be absolutely astonished to see this leader.

Yan San!

That's right, he was none other than Yan San, the "Tianyi" of Ximen Hall!
The brothers from the Tianzi Group originally came to Wenzhou Prefecture after learning about the discovery of the ancient tomb of Emperor Taizu and rushed to investigate the truth of the matter.

Although Chen Jie has been missing for more than a month, there has been no news of him.

but,

The internal management of Ximentang was not chaotic; it was simply that its influence was shrinking.

Yan San, along with his brothers from the Ximen Hall's Tianzi Division, had another mission: to investigate the movements of the forces behind King Min, Li Gang.

After Lord Chen Jie disappeared, King Li Gang of Min was imprisoned.

After arriving in Wenzhou, Yan San behaved very discreetly and cautiously.

but,

To his surprise, he was discovered as soon as he entered Wenzhou Prefecture.

Then he was imprisoned for three days and suffered all kinds of torture.

Today is the day of execution!

This eldest son of the Dong family was in charge of executing officials at the East Gate of Wenzhou Prefecture.

Unexpectedly, instead of killing Yan San and the others directly, he had his own lions start tearing apart the members of the Ximen Hall's top rank, thus establishing his authority!

Yan San and all the brothers of the Heavenly Order wanted to rebel.

but,

The experts from the Dong family are too strong; the difference in strength is enormous.

In particular, several of the Dong family's overseas ancestors were reclusive powerhouses at the 'Undying God' realm.

How could the few martial artists at the Blood Pill Realm of the Ximen Hall's Heavenly Rank resist?

The man the lion tore apart and ate alive was none other than Tian Shijiu, a master of the Ximen Hall's Tianzi Division!

"Haha! Retribution? I'm just waiting for my retribution. Where is it?"

“The heavens of Wenzhou Prefecture are not those of Ximen Hall. You should have known the consequences when you came to Wenzhou Prefecture.”

"Oh, right, I forgot to tell you, if you want to blame someone, blame your master—Prince Qian, Chen Jie!"

"Don't you know about the relationship between our Dong family and the Green Gang and the Hongmen?"

"You men from the Ximen Hall dare to come all the way to Wenzhou Prefecture to die? You're tired of living!"

"When Ximen Tang wiped out the Green Gang, he should have thought of this day!"

"We will not only kill all the people of your Ximen Hall, but also destroy your army!"

"Just wait—haha! You'll soon see Ximen Tang's men wiped out."

The lion chewed and tore at Tian Shijiu until it was completely devoured, seemingly still hungry and unsatisfied.

It raised its head and let out a roar.

The bits of flesh stuck between his teeth emitted a strong, bloody smell.

Next,
It shook its head and walked towards Yan San.

"Damn it!"

Yan San roared, unleashing all his power at that moment.

unfortunately,

He was chained to the feet, and another chain was tied to his collarbone.

His internal energy was locked, making it impossible for him to exert any force.

Even when he burned his own life force in an attempt to break free of the iron chains binding his feet, he was powerless to do so.

His strength and internal energy stopped abruptly when they reached his dantian.

Ouch——!
The lion roared fiercely, opened its blood-red maw, and bit down on Yan San's head.

Just now, when I tore into 'Tian Shijiu', I bit off its neck in one go.

Yan San's mind went blank, and he let out a long, helpless sigh.

How to do?
What can we do in this situation?
He was unwilling to accept his fate and did not want to die like this.

In order to stabilize the situation of the Great Qian Dynasty, Xi Mentang created an invincible army.

In order to defeat the Western powers and the Japanese, Ximen Tang fought a bloody battle.

In order to stabilize the situation of the Great Qian Dynasty, Ximen Tang did not exterminate these Jianghu forces.

Why are these martial arts families targeting Ximen Tang?

Why is it that despite Ximen Tang's immense sacrifices, these martial arts families ultimately cannot tolerate his existence?

Why would they invite wolves into their house and seek refuge with the Japanese for their own benefit?

With their lord's fate unknown, these martial arts families are not dealing with the Japanese, but instead raising their knives against Ximen Tang!

this moment,
Yan San was unable to calm down.

He is not afraid of death!

But when faced with the lion's fangs, he was filled with despair.

No, it should be said that he was disheartened and filled with sorrow.

Haha—scared?

"So you know fear now! But it's too late to be afraid!"

The young man, sitting imposingly in the chair, shouted with wild laughter.

then,

He waved his hand.

The chains of the other three lions were loosened, and they pounced on the group from Ximentang Tianzihao.

Ouch——!
The lion's roar was deafening.

A foul stench swept through the surroundings.

The members of the Ximen Hall's Tianzi Group did not continue to resist.

Everyone's feet were chained and their collarbones were locked, so they had no chance to resist.

People accept death with equanimity.

From the moment they became members of the Ximen Hall's top-tier group, they were already mentally prepared for death.

Just then, the lion's gaping maw was about to bite Yan San's head.

Whoosh-!
A figure flew over from a distance.

boom!
With a wave of his arm, Chen Jie unleashed a terrifying force that threatened to shatter the surroundings completely.

but,

At that very moment, to Chen Jie's surprise,

Ouyang, the hero who had been following him from afar, fired the first shot.

Da da—da da—!
He fired a Maxim machine gun from fifty meters away at the lion.

The bullets were like death warrants, splattering blood everywhere.

Ouch——!
At this moment, the four lions were riddled with holes by Ouyang Daxia's heavy machine gun.

They let out a scream and collapsed to the ground.

"You son of a bitch—who dares to kill my lion!"

The young man, sitting down, stared wide-eyed and roared to the sky.

Ouyang the Hero truly lived up to his nickname in the martial arts world: "Heavy Machine Gun." His marksmanship was impeccable.

Even at a distance of fifty meters, his heavy machine gun did not waste a single bullet, hitting the lion with every single one.

After all four lions fell down.

boom--!
A terrifying pressure instantly descended upon the surroundings. (End of Chapter)
