Chapter 277 - Total Destruction (1/2)
Chapter 277 Total Destruction
Yagyuu Ken glared at Yagyuu Waaka and looked at Qin Haodong.
It turned out that Yagyuu Shinji had felt restless after sending Yagyuu Waaka and the others to the Celestial Empire. Should anything happen to them, the Yagyuus' position would suffer a disastrous demise. He had hesitated for a long time before deciding to send the Great Senior, Yagyuu Ken, to the Celestial Empire.
Yagyuu Ken, who was a proud man, thought Yagyuu Shinji was overreacting by sending him to the Celestial Empire to deal with a college boy. Thus, he hadn't shown up. Instead, he had been protecting Yagyuu Waaka and the others secretly.
After arriving at the valley, he had been hiding in the tree. In his opinion, there was no doubt that Yagyuu Waaka and his fellows would win. Therefore, he had stayed still in the tree. That was why he hadn't noticed Chen Fugui and Zhang Tieniu's besiege.
It had never occurred to him that the situation would go bad so easily. In the blink of an eye, almost all the people sent by the Yagyuus had died. That was why he had jumped off the tree.
His main task during this trip to the Celestial Empire was to save Yagyuu Hirai. Now that almost everyone had died, he would feel too ashamed to go back to Yagyuu Shinji without saving Yagyuu Hirai.
Thus, he said coldly, ”Let go of our young master now, or I'll kill you all!”
Hu Xiaoxian yelled and argued, ”That's big talk! What if we don't?”
”Then I'll teach you a lesson!”
Yagyuu Ken turned stern and smashed his fist against Hu Xiaoxian. The punch seemed light and weak, but the skinny fist was exuding wind. This strong wind made everyone around retreat.
Hu Xiaoxian's face changed sharply. She raised her hand and blocked the fist. The two fists collided and banged aloud. The echo traveled everywhere in the valley through the grassroots and the leaves.
Hu Xiaoxian flew backward for dozens of meters because of the strike. She had been making some progress cultivation-wise, yet she was only at the fifth level of the Covert Power. The old man was just half a step away from entering the Supreme Power Realm. She was four levels behind him.
Qin Haodong rushed to catch up with Hu Xiaoxian, who was falling fast. He tried to ease down her disorganized meridians. She was lucky that he had moved in time, or Hu Xiaoxian could've been puking blood by now.
Qin Haodong, who seemed to have detected how powerful Yagyuu Ken was, told everyone else, ”Go back! Hurry up!”
Upon hearing his orders, Nalan Wushuang, Qi Wan'er, and the others took a few steps backward, staying dozens of meters away from Yagyuu Ken and his fellows.
Yagyuu Ken sneered, ”What's that for? Did you finally realize how powerful I am? Now, give the young master back to us, or you'll all die miserably!”
Qin Haodong said, ”Your cultivation level is high enough, but we've got way more people than you. If you'd like to perish along with us, the Yagyuu family will have to suffer the consequences too. I'm afraid you are the only one who can survive this.”
Yagyuu Waaka said, ”Death is no horror for me. The warriors in our country cherish Bushido, the fearlessness to die.”
Yagyuu Ken said coldly, ”Young man, give our young master to us now. I'm too old to slaughter people.”
Qin Haodong hesitated for a bit and turned back to Saber. Then, he said, ”Bring him here.”
Saber went back to the off-road vehicle with the others and dragged a man out of the trunk. This time, it was the real Yagyuu Hirai.
Yagyuu Hirai, who was covered in wounds, looked dispirited. This was the most miserable time of his life. His dim eyes lit up when he saw Yagyuu Ken. He opened his mouth in an effort to speak but failed to make a sound.
”You bastard, how dare you do that to him!”
Yagyuu Ken felt so outraged because Yagyuu Hirai had been around him ever since he was a kid. He had treated him like his grandson, so it was hard for him to imagine that one day he would meet a miserable end.
”What's the big deal? We've already given him back to you!”
Qin Haodong said as he grabbed Yagyuu Hirai by the belt. Then, his arms shook and shot Yagyuu Hirai out like a fast cannonball, sending him flying fast towards Yagyuu Ken.
Liu Shengjian lifted him quickly and used some soft power to pick Yagyuu Hirai up.
As his hand touched Yagyuu Hirai's broken shoulder, the pain made the guy scream like a howling ghost.
”You bastard!”
Yagyuu Ken scolded when he found the injuries on Yagyuu Hirai's arm. He reached out to support his other hand, only to find that this one was actually worse. It fell off and landed on the ground on his watch.
Although he was freaked out, he later realized that the falling arm was a fake one. It turned out that Yagyuu Hirai's original arm had been chopped off!
”You bastard!”
Yagyuu Ken yelled angrily and threw the fake arm hard on the floor. Then, he pulled out the sword on his waist and pointed it at Qin Haodong. ”Given how much you've insulted our young master, you'll have to die today!”
Qin Haodong smiled lightly. ”You wish! We're in our country now. It's no place for you to act wildly!”
Yagyuu Ken yelled at the others, ”You can go now! All I need is to kill him!”
He was angry but rational. He was half a step away from the Supreme Power Realm, yet the enemies were too many. Besides, some of them were powerhouses. If he perished along with them, no one would stand a chance of surviving. They were all elites of the family, so it would be better if none of them died.
Therefore, he wanted to scare away Hu Xiaoxian and the others so that he could kill Qin Haodong alone.
