Immortal of the Nine Realms-Chapter 75: Why Would I Kill You Personally?

On the Jade Immortal Boat, Marquis Xian Yu had yet to make a move. He merely instructed his men to surround Fang Chen and his company. He seemed to be waiting for some news from his men.

Meanwhile, Ye Qinghe—who was still trying to persuade him up to this point—seemingly began getting on his nerves, and he received a harsh slap that sent him flying several meters away. He thudded to the floor, then stirred, struggling to get back up.

Marquis Xian Yu chuckled. “Don’t waste your efforts, Junior. We will undoubtedly take over Grand Xia today."

Ye Qinghe covered his swelling cheeks and looked at Marquis Xian Yu with a trace of resentment, but he didn’t dare speak any more since Marquis Xian Yu was a Qi Core expert. If the man actually got angry, Ye Qinghe reckoned he wouldn’t be able to take a single hit from him.

Suddenly, Fang Chen smiled and said, "Marquis Xian Yu, you seem to be waiting for something."

“Earlier when Fairy Yu was drinking with you, I already sent someone to your Fang Manor. Very soon, the people there will be completely wiped out,” Marquis Xian Yu said with a light laugh. “Divine General Fang, have you ever regretted killing Viscount Zhou? Your whole family will be buried because of what you’ve done. And it is not just your family who will be accompanying the viscount in death, but all of the commoners in Grand Xia too.”

Fang Chen mulled over his words. It seems that Viscount Zhou’s identity is not as simple as it seems, he thought. But there weren't any signs of worry on his face, which the rest of the hostages around him took notice of. They couldn’t help but feel angry since this was all technically Fang Chen’s fault! If he hadn’t killed Zhou Xiu, Longdu wouldn't have sent its troops to attack Grand Xia. They could’ve been enjoying themselves right now, but instead their lives were now hanging in the balance.

Ye Qinghe vented angrily all of a sudden, "Fang Chen, you often boast of being a martial artist in the Qi Core Stage, and everyone calls you Divine General Fang. Why aren’t you doing anything? Longdu has bullied you to this degree and even threatened to kill your whole family, yet you don’t dare act!”

“All of this was caused by you! You brought enemies to our Grand Xia, and now, innocent people will die because of you! You deserve a thousand deaths! You deserve Hell for what you’ve done!"

"That's right! It's all your fault!"

"Fall on your knees and apologize! Then, Longdu might show us mercy and spare our lives as well as the many lives of the Grand Xia’s commoners!”

Ye Qinghe and his clique of dogs whined.

Marquis Xian Yu watched that scene with interest, then nodded slightly, saying, "They are right. All of this was caused by you. Perhaps if you kneel down and apologize, I might spare some of the innocent commoners."

Huangfu Jie and the others looked grim. They couldn't believe that Fang Chen was about to be humiliated in such a way, while Ye Qinghe was absolutely thrilled, and he rushed up to Fang Chen, yelling, “You better kneel down and apologize right now!”

Fang Chen snubbed him and addressed the marquis, a smile on his face. “Don’t you feel that something’s wrong? The person you’ve sent... shouldn’t he be back by now?”

Marquis Xian Yu squinted. "What are you trying to say? Yu Hanguang is at the peak of the Qi Manipulation Stage. Now that you’re here, he’ll be able to easily kill off everyone in your Fang Manor.”

When Xu Ge heard that, he couldn't help but explode into laughter. Which prompted Marquis Xian Yu to look at him. Seeing that, Xu Ge waved him off, saying, “Ignore me. Just ignore me. it’s nothing. I really just couldn’t help it.”

At that moment, a figure suddenly walked to Fang Chen’s side and whispered, “They only sent someone to the Fang Manor, and there was no movement in the palace, my lord”

"Is there anyone in the capital colluding with Longdu?" Fang Chen asked.

“I’m not sure, but everyone is staying silent. There doesn’t seem to be anything suspicious going on," the figure replied.

Fang Chen nodded. "I see. You can leave now."

The figure then approached the exit of the Jade Immortal Boat briskly.

Seeing their brief interaction, the onlookers were bewildered. They didn’t understand what Fang Chen was up to at all.

“You think you can come and go as you please?” Marquis Xian Yu roared angrily and signaled to one of the peak Qi Manipulation martial artists, who immediately rushed toward the figure

Lightning flashed. Boom!

The martial artist from Longdu was instantly charred black , and without turning back, the figure leaped into the water, disappearing from view.

Ye Qinghe was dumbfounded, as were the rest of the people on the Jade Immortal Boat.

“P-Purple Lightning Palm?!"

How could a martial artist in the peak Manipulation Qi Stage be killed so casually by one of Fang Chen’s subordinates?!

Uncertainty flashed in Marquis Xian Yu’s eyes. Just as he was about to speak, Fang Chen smiled and said, "I've already received the news I've been waiting for. Marquis Xian Yu, it’s time for you to be on your way.”

Marquis Xian Yu’s expression darkened. “You think you can deal with me on your own?"

Fang Chen shook his head with a smile. “Me? No. Why would I kill you personally?” he said. "Xu Ge, go ahead and kill him, but don’t be complacent”

Xu Ge nodded. He had originally intended to use a low-grade Purple Lightning Talisman, but since the lord said not to be complacent, he decided to use a mid-grade Purple Lightning Talisman instead. Since this would be his first time killing a martial artist in the Core Qi Stage, he couldn’t help but feel a bit excited.

Everyone was stunned.

Even figures like Huangfu Jie, Yuan Zhuang, and others looked astonished. Asking Windy Cloud Swordsman Xu Ge to kill Marquis Xian Yu? Wasn’t that just like throwing an egg at a rock?

Infuriated, Marquis Xian Yu burst into laughter. “Hahaha...”

Xu Ge raised his hand, activating a mid-grade Purple Lightning Talisman. Then, a terrifying bolt of lightning struck Marquis Xian Yu, and his laughter ceased abruptly. When the flash of lightning settled, the marquis—now charred black all over—appeared, wisps of white smoke exiting his gaping mouth.

"Marquis Xian Yu?!" The group of martial artists in the Manipulation Qi Stage from Longdu looked shocked, unable to believe what they were witnessing.

"Five years ago, you took advantage of the situation when Grand Xia was in conflict with Qingsong, and gained many benefits from us. After today, I’m afraid your empire will have to pay a heavy price. Whatever you took from us, you’ll pay us twofold,” Fang Chen said with a smile. He then nodded slightly at Xu Ge.

Getting his cue, Xu Ge released more than ten Purple Lightning Talismans in quick succession, instantly killing all the martial artists in the peak Qi Condensation Stage.

Silence enveloped the entire Jade Immortal Boat, and the people showed expressions of disbelief. The mouths of Ye Qinghe and the rest were slightly opened in shock. Their expressions as if they had been struck by lighting.

That was a Core Qi martial artist! Yet, Xu Ge killed him like it was nothing!

As they regained their senses gradually, they looked at Fang Chen with eyes full of fear. How strong was his cultivation if his subordinates could kill Qi Core experts?! They had truly underestimated him too much since his defeat at Three World Mountain!

"Xu Ge, what Ye Qinghe said earlier was too unpleasant. That’s why you can slap him a few times, but still, give Minister Ye some face,” Fang Chen said.

"Yes, my lord." Xu Ge's mouth slightly curled, a sly smile appearing on his face as he walked to Ye Qinghe. "Lord Ye, forgive my rudeness." Without waiting for him to react, Xu Ge grabbed him by the collar, pulled him, and delivered a series of slaps that caused Ye Qinghe to faint on the spot. freewebn ovel.com

Meanwhile, his “friends” dared not make a sound. They kept their heads down as they trembled all over.

Seeing Ye Qinghe’s lolling head, Xue cranked his head back and said innocently, “My lord, he can’t take any more hits.”

The hearts of everyone chilled at the thought of enduring more than a dozen slaps like that. It seemed like anyone would faint from that.

"Let's head back," Fang Chen said with a faint smile.
