Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor-Chapter 370 - 368: Cold Iron Guard
Chapter 370: Chapter 368: Cold Iron Guard
“Who is this guy?”
All eyes fell on the figure in black on the screen, which appeared somewhat sinister under the light of the fire.
“It was him who killed Song Qi and Hua Dong and the others.”
Elder Chen Xiang spoke, surprisingly void of much anger, but rather, there seemed to be a hint of teasing in his tone.
He truly wasn’t angry, he even felt somewhat intrigued.
The Sect of the Battle God, one of the Top Ten Super Sects on the Dragon Martial Continent, commanded respect not only from other Super Sects but also from hidden powerful families as well as entities like Myriad Treasures Pavilion and Nine Heavens Tower that could rival Super Sects—everyone must kneel immediately upon meeting them.
This was the majesty of the Sect of the Battle God!
For many years, the Sect of the Battle God had stood firm on the Dragon Martial Continent, its reputation unshakeable, no one could, nor dared to, disturb it!
But today, had someone actually dared to steal from the Sect of the Battle God?
“Could it be that this person was merely swayed by greed for a moment and did not know that Hua Dong and Song Qi were people from my Sect of the Battle God?” a gorgeously robed **** spoke up.
“How could he not know?”
Chen Xiang’s somewhat murky eyes narrowed slightly, and Leng Xiao said, “First, on Hua Dong’s body, there was the crimson Battle God Order bestowed by his master, Elder Li. If Hua Dong were defeated, he would still have had time to show the Battle God Order. The Battle God Order of our sect cannot be imitated, from this one can ascertain Hua Dong’s identity.”
“Second, this person incinerated all the bodies of Hua Dong and others, clearly intending to destroy the evidence, for fear of being discovered by my Sect of the Battle God. He underestimated the Super Sect too much; our sect has trade routes spread throughout the entire Dragon Martial Continent, if we did not even have this level of capability, wouldn’t the goods transported have been plundered long ago?”
Upon hearing these words, the others nodded, feeling that this elder’s words were reasonable.
“Elder Chen, why don’t we take action to test this person’s strength?” the beautiful woman spoke again.
She was very beautiful, although she was middle-aged, it was evident from her perfectly maintained skin that when she was younger, she must have been exceptionally beautiful, adored and loved by many men.
Her cultivation base was at the early stage of the Dragon God Realm.
In this realm, if placed in Yuanshan County, she would be considered a formidable power.
Yet, in this small loft, out of a hundred people, her aura was only in the middle lower-class.
“No need.”
Chen Xiang’s eyes revealed a gleam of cold light: “The sect internally has its own methods for dealing with these matters. You all are only responsible for escorting and transporting goods, such trivial matters, I will handle myself.”
“This person is finished.”
Seeing Chen Xiang’s icy demeanor, the people around secretly sighed for Su Han, feeling that his death was inevitable.
Chen Xiang, being the person in charge of King Yue Road, his methods were extremely ruthless, difficult for ordinary people to compare, and even hard to imagine.
For hundreds, nearly a thousand years, no one had ever dared to rob the Sect of the Battle God. This was the first time.
And for such a first time, a severe punishment was necessary.
Killing the chicken to warn the monkeys!
“Spread the word about this incident, clearly state that something from my Sect of the Battle God was stolen.” Elder Chen’s lips curled into a cold smile.
“Yes.”
Immediately a man in black bowed slightly and then quickly departed.
No one else spoke.
Logically, having the Sect of the Battle God’s goods stolen was an extremely embarrassing incident, it shouldn’t be spread about.
But they were well aware of Chen Xiang’s approach.
Chen Xiang dared to spread the word like this because he must have had great confidence in capturing this person, and once captured, the person could expect to suffer torture.
Killing him outright was certainly not an option, as it wouldn’t reflect the majesty of the Sect of the Battle God.
Chen Xiang wanted to use this incident, and the person involved, to let everyone know that the Sect of the Battle God was not to be trifled with.
Moreover, handling this matter well would see Chen Xiang’s position in the transportation branch of the Sect of the Battle God rise steadily, maybe even to the point where he could be in charge of a main route!
“Cold Iron Guard.” Chen Xiang spoke blandly.
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
“At your service.”
Another man in black stood out. This middle-aged man bore a fearsome scar across his face, as if he had suffered a severe injury in his early years.
The appearance of this man immediately caused the nearly a hundred men responsible for the escort to shrink their pupils and inhale sharply in their hearts.
“I give you three days to capture this person and bring him to Snow Moon City,” said Chen Xiang.
“Yes.”
The corner of Scarblade’s mouth twitched slightly before he withdrew.
“Old Chen.”
After Scarblade left, he spoke with a sneer, “After killing Hua Dong and his men, to avoid detection and cover his tracks, he burned their bodies. Hua Dong and his men’s cultivation bases, the highest being at Dragon Pill Realm Peak, suggest that this guy’s cultivation base should be around the early stages of the Dragon God Realm. Isn’t sending the Cold Iron Guard out for just him… a bit extravagant?”
“It is extravagant.”
Chen Xiang smiled slightly, “But this person is audacious and even in death, shouldn’t he die clearly understanding why?”
Hearing this, everyone else trembled and no longer spoke.
…
Some three thousand miles away from Snow Moon City, Su Han, dressed in black and with a hat pulled low, calmly walked toward Snow Moon City through the falling snow.
He was unaware of Chen Xiang and the others’ deliberations or what the Cold Iron Guard was.
But his goal was to enter Snow Moon City, to infiltrate the Sect of the Battle God’s commercial hub there… and to destroy it!
With Su Han’s current cultivation base, directly attacking the Sect of the Battle God would clearly be unrealistic.
However, to Su Han, the actions of super sects like the Sect of the Battle God represented an enormous grievance, and with his character, if he didn’t take revenge, he truly wouldn’t deserve the name of the Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor.
He decided to start first with this transportation route, robbing and killing along the way, not only to enrage the Sect of the Battle God but also to increase the wealth of the Phoenix Sect, and he had another main goal, which was to devour others’ Dragon Pills.
Who were these others?
Naturally, they were these people with whom he had an enormous grievance!
“According to information from the Nine Heavens Tower, among this branch line heading to Snow Moon City, only Hua Dong and Song Qi’s teams are transporting for the Sect of the Battle God, the rest are on other branch lines,” Su Han muttered to himself. “Searching for them one by one is a waste of time and too troublesome. These people will eventually gather in Snow Moon City, and Chen Xiang, the person in charge there, is also the overall in charge of King Yue Road. Destroying this hub in Snow Moon City might not completely break the Sect of the Battle God’s transportation arm, but it will definitely cost them dearly.”
As he finished speaking, Su Han suddenly looked up towards the distance.
Amid the blanket of heavy snow, several figures rushed toward him, their feet stirring up the snowflakes as they approached rapidly.
Within a kilometer, a terrifying murderous intent and aura surged toward him.
