Chapter 201 Not Afraid
Chapter 201 Not Afraid
The effeminate young man tumbled several times in the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
He was bleeding from his mouth and nose, and his folding fan was reduced to just a skeleton, yet he still held it in his hand.
He got up from the ground, his face full of anger, to the point that he overlooked how significant Xiao Chen's slap across his face was.
"Outrageous! Utterly outrageous! I am the Grand Master of Ceremonies of the First Young Master of the Martial Alliance! How dare you lay a hand on me? This is outrageous!" he roared.
"Patriarch Xiao, is your Xiao family trying to challenge the authority of the Martial Alliance? Can you bear the consequences?" He then challenged Xiao Jialin.
Xiao Jialin remained silent, completely ignoring him.
"Get him! He's just a young master from the Xiao family, can't you handle him?" he ordered again.
He thought that the people who had been blasted away by Xiao Chen's energy would be fine, but after calling out twice without any response, he realized that all the people he had brought were lying on the ground groaning in pain, and none of them could get up.
He then showed surprise.
Xiao Chen walked down the steps with a cold expression.
“A servant should act like a servant,” he said calmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, an aura emanated from him, quickly enveloping the effeminate young man and his men.
In that instant, the effeminate young man's expression changed drastically, and he felt immense pressure.
It felt like Mount Tai was pressing down on us; the air seemed to freeze...
He gritted his teeth, but he simply couldn't withstand the immense pressure.
"boom!"
The effeminate young man was pressed down so hard that his knees bent and he fell to his knees.
The stone bricks on the ground were smashed, but he couldn't utter a sound of pain. His face was covered in cold sweat and veins were bulging. It was impossible to tell how much pain he was enduring.
The other members of the Martial Alliance were in no better shape, pressed tightly to the ground and unable to move.
At this moment, a look of terror finally appeared on the effeminate young man's face.
This aura... is terrifying.
If martial artists can suppress each other solely through their aura, the difference in their abilities must be enormous.
"A prodigy level!" The effeminate young man's pupils widened in shock.
Only those young people who reach the King level can be called prodigies.
They are usually trained by top martial arts families and sects in the Xia Kingdom, and their numbers are extremely small.
Jiang City doesn't have anything of that level.
But now they dare not underestimate Xiao Chen.
With just a glance, Xiao Chen exerted his pressure, rendering them immobile and helpless...
"Is this Xiao Chen's strength?" Xiao Jialin asked in shock.
This oppressive aura is even stronger than that of many veteran kings.
Dongfang Ruyi didn't react much.
She wasn't surprised; on the contrary, she felt that Xiao Chen must be hiding something.
Only when Xiao Chen's aura weakened could the effeminate youth and the others breathe a sigh of relief.
"Even if you have some strength... you're still far from being able to go against the Young Master Alliance and the Martial Alliance!" the effeminate young man said coldly.
"I am the most honored person by the side of the Young Alliance. If you dare to force me to kneel, you are slapping the face of the Young Alliance! You are slapping the face of the Martial Alliance!" He was furious.
"It's just a dog, what's so noble about it?" Xiao Chen chuckled and raised his hand to press down.
An even more intense pressure descended...
"what……"
The effeminate young man screamed, his face turning deathly pale.
He could feel that his kneecap was broken.
They thought that bringing up the Young Alliance and the Martial Alliance would intimidate Xiao Chen, but it backfired.
He couldn't understand how Xiao Chen, a mere young master of the Xiao family, could be so bold.
"Didn't the higher-ups of the Martial Alliance tell you anything when they sent you to pick someone up?" Dongfang Ruyi said calmly.
"What..." The effeminate young man was puzzled, and immediately felt only pain.
Dongfang Ruyi didn't give him an answer, but her eyes were full of pity.
What were they going to use to pressure Xiao Chen?
Even the Martial Alliance was useless, let alone a minor alliance?
She personally investigated such a massive family annihilation case, but the highest levels of headquarters simply issued an order to forcibly close the case. She wasn't even qualified to access highly classified information.
How dare you offend a mere Attendant of Ceremonial?
"If I were you, I would just leave quietly," Dongfang Ruyi said.
The effeminate young man had a gloomy expression.
He was forced to kneel down, how could he swallow that insult?
No matter how angry and resentful he was, he was now helpless against Xiao Chen and didn't even have the right to fight him.
"Get out of here, don't dirty the Xiao family's grounds," Xiao Chen said calmly, withdrawing his aura.
"Let me tell you, Young Master Yi, that he is not worthy to covet my maid. When I arrive in the capital, I will personally cripple him."
The effeminate young man listened with a frozen expression.
Dongfang Ruyi was stunned for a moment.
This bold statement wasn't made lightly.
"If you really go to the capital, it's not certain who will be crippled!" the effeminate young man said through gritted teeth.
He didn't believe Xiao Chen could be stronger than the Young Alliance; he would only bring shame upon himself.
"Help me up!" he shouted.
His kneecap was crushed, and he can only kneel down now.
Those who were lying on the ground struggled to get up, and then rushed over to help them up.
Even the slightest movement causes excruciating pain, deepening its resentment.
“I will report everything that happened here today truthfully. I hope you can withstand the pressure…” he said through gritted teeth.
Xiao Chen didn't care at all.
The effeminate young man took out a small wooden box from his person.
"Dongfang Ruyi, this is something the Young Alliance asked me to bring to you," he said, gesturing to his subordinate to take it to Dongfang Ruyi.
"If you don't know what's good for you, you won't get another chance," he threatened.
Dongfang Ruyi took the wooden box and put it away without even looking at it.
"What is it?" Xiao Chen asked.
He didn't think it was anything good.
"This item can help me suppress some of the side effects of my cultivation techniques. It's a trade I made with the Young Alliance," Dongfang Ruyi said calmly, without showing him the box.
Therefore, Xiao Chen did not ask any further questions.
"The mountains are high and the rivers are long, but the Young Master Alliance will avenge me for today's grievances!" The effeminate young man coldly uttered a harsh statement, then urged his subordinates to take him away.
He needs to see a doctor immediately.
This group arrived arrogantly, but left in a sorry state.
"You haven't even reached the capital yet, and you've already made a troublesome enemy," Xiao Jialin said helplessly, looking at the departing figures.
"The young leader of the Martial Alliance is incredibly powerful, known as the most outstanding prodigy in the history of the Martial Alliance. Moreover, he comes from a top-tier martial arts family and has an extremely strong background..." he explained to Xiao Chen.
"Oh."
Xiao Chen merely responded with a perfunctory reply.
Xiao Jialin didn't know what else to say, but he told him it was better to make fewer enemies.
"Once you reach the main family, many challenges await you. You'll be overwhelmed with both open and covert attacks."
Xiao Chen ignored this.
Once he arrives in the capital, he shouldn't be the one who's afraid.
