Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 61 - Framing

Chapter 61: Chapter 61 Framing

“Hmph, it should be said that you are recklessly bold, daring to assist Chu Fei in patricide.” Chu Bing did not let slip any information, “Since you dared to commit a crime, even if you are from Martial Sect, you will still be executed without mercy!”

He couldn’t believe it, if hundreds of Slayer Moon Arrows were shot simultaneously, they couldn’t make Shi Hao riddled with transparent holes.

You should know that Shi Hao, no matter how strong, is only at the Primary Level of Martial Sect; being able to block the simultaneous shooting of twenty Moon-Slaying Bows must undoubtedly be his limit.

Hundreds? Heh.

Shi Hao looked at him, revealing a hint of a smile: “When you came to me with an offer before, I did not agree, and from that moment on, you already harbored the intent to kill.”

“Actually, I quite admire you as a person.”

“It’s only been a few days since I was discovered to be a martial master, yet you immediately changed your plan, dragging me into it, and made this murder seem all the more credible.”

With his eyesight, he had long spotted that Chu Wei was poisoned, but just like when he was ambushed by Luo Chen in the past, this poison would only greatly reduce one’s strength.

To be able to poison a martial master, and for it to take effect in such a short period of time, the dose Chu Bing administered must have been large.

Only he, the person who was closest and most trusted by Chu Wei, one to provide food without raising any suspicions—even if the taste was a bit odd, Chu Wei would never suspect poisoning.

This was his son!

“Shi Hao, don’t spout nonsense. For the crime of murdering a member of the Royal Family, you deserve death, even your status as a martial master cannot save you!” Chu Bing said indifferently, fully confident with the situation under control.

In truth, as long as Chu Wei died, everything was already settled.

What if he killed Chu Fei by force? When the time came, all the blame could be placed on Chu Fei. With the army in his hands and by killing all the leading figures of the major households, who would dare to oppose him?

Dragging Shi Hao into this was a spur of the moment decision, fueled by Shi Hao’s offense against him.

He was a man who exacted retribution for each and every grievance.

Shi Hao shook his head: “You’ve calculated a thousand possibilities, but you’ve miscalculated one thing.”

“Oh?” Chu Bing was disdainful, his eyes filled with a hint of mockery.

What if you are a martial master?

Falsely accused by me, you still only wait for death.

This is the power of authority. No matter how strong you are, can you contend against the war machine?

“You were wrong in underestimating my strength,” Shi Hao said as he strode toward Chu Bing.

Chu Fei watched, a glimmer of hope rising in his heart.

Now, all depended on Shi Hao.

This was a martial master!

“Hahaha, a martial master, so what? Under the Moon-Slaying Bow, you will still be shot into a hornet’s nest!” Chu Bing waved his hand, and a commander immediately began to orchestrate, as a hundred members of the City Guard Army aimed their Moon-Slaying Bows at Shi Hao.

“Any household head who can kill Shi Hao, the Young Prince will let him live,” Chu Bing added another sentence, and suddenly, various City Guard Army members aimed their Moon-Slaying Bows at the heads of households like the Han Family.

——The only ones exempt were the Murong Family, for their head had already perished.

Facing the Moon-Slaying Bow, who would dare not to act?

Helplessly, these household heads had to rush out, attacking Shi Hao.

Chu Bing laughed wildly, relishing in the power that allowed him to dictate life or death, a sensation he found exquisitely delightful.

The household heads attacked, but one by one, they did not give it their all, as if merely toying around.

“Hmph!” Chu Bing, under the protection of his guards, began to move back. At his cold snort, a few Moon-Slaying Bows instantly released their arrows.

Thwack!

Immediately, a household head was hit by four arrows, falling flat to the ground, dead as a doornail—none other than the just-mentioned head of the Chen Family.

“Those who wish to muddle through will meet this very fate!” Chu Bing said coolly.

Now, the major household heads were driven into a corner, their eyes red as they were forced to fight in earnest.

“Kill!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Shi Hao was merciless, killing a person with each punch, effortlessly wiping out these household heads.

“I don’t care if you have been threatened!”

“Am I not terrifying? You fear the Moon-Slaying Bow but not me?”

“Is this contempt I see?”

As several family patriarchs fell to the ground, the remaining ones felt like crying.

On one side was the Moon-Slaying Bow, and on the other was the Martial Sect; either one was too much for them to handle.

“We can no longer be manipulated by others!” declared the patriarch of the Han Family furiously, “We must unite and fight alongside Young Master Shi if we are to carve out a path to survival! Otherwise, do you think that little beast will spare us once this immediate threat passes?”

Of course, by “little beast,” he meant Chu Bing.

All the family patriarchs remained silent, but after a moment, they nodded in unison.

To have them attack Shi Hao was clearly Chu Bing making a mockery of them, intending to use Shi Hao to dispose of them.

If death was certain, they chose to die with dignity.

“Kill!” Chu Bing said coldly, waving his hand, and in an instant, thousands of arrows were loosed, mercilessly raining down upon the great family heads and Shi Hao.

“Ah!”

Screams filled the air immediately.

The Moon-Slaying Bow could execute high-level martial masters, and this was no mere boast; now thousands of arrows shot forth together—how terrifying was that?

Instantly, the great family patriarchs fell one by one, their blood staining the entire encampment red.

“Hahahaha!” Chu Bing laughed uproariously, his glee undeniable.

He had waited long for this day.

These prestigious family heads had all looked down on him, deeming him a barbarian!

“Hmph, today let’s have you all die at the hands of a barbarian!”

He deliberately spared Chu Fei because he wanted to kill that man last, and by his own hand.

The resentment had festered far too long!

Though both were sons of Chu Wei and he was the eldest, why did Chu Wei show favoritism, choosing to pass the throne to his younger brother?

What was he lacking compared to Chu Fei?

“Young, Young Prince!” Just as he was brooding with vengeance, one of his subordinates cried out in alarm.

His gaze swept around and saw all his generals wearing looks of astonishment, as if they had seen a ghost.

Following their gazes, he caught sight of a scene he would never forget.

——Shi Hao, spearheading the onslaught of the Moon-Slaying Bow’s volley, was steadily advancing toward him.

This must be some trickery.

Chu Bing’s mouth involuntarily hung open in shock; he knew well the Moon-Slaying Bow’s immense destructive power, capable of tearing apart the bodies of high-level martial masters and causing catastrophic damage.

Yet when striking Shi Hao, they were deflected one by one, causing not even a scratch!

This was mad!

Furthermore, at least 5,000 pounds of force were needed to draw the Moon-Slaying Bow; how terrifying then was the momentum of those arrows?

Thousands hitting simultaneously would make a seemingly indestructible steel titan slide backward.

But what about Shi Hao?

Step by step, firm and composed.

Was this still a man? Truly a man?

Chu Bing felt a parched throat and a restless tongue as he watched Shi Hao close in with each step, a fierce fear welling up inside him.

At this moment, he couldn’t help but remember Shi Hao’s earlier words, the mistake was, he shouldn’t have involved Shi Hao as well.

Back then, he hadn’t taken it seriously, but now he finally understood that this was no exaggeration.

This guy was too strong, unnaturally strong.
