Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 1172 - 1169: Are You Trying to Cripple Me?
"What if it is, what if it’s not?"
Li Chen stared coldly at this middle-aged man, sneered lightly, and casually retorted.
The middle-aged man felt a chill in his heart from Li Chen’s laugh, bore a fierce and unruly look, gritted his teeth and said, "Whether it is or not, in this Red Sun City’s territory, you should follow our Red Sun City’s rules!"
Li Chen raised his eyebrows and asked, "What rules?"
The middle-aged man pointed at Ji Lingling, and said very arrogantly, "This Miss Ling’er is the woman our Young Marquis has taken a fancy to. If you’re smart, you’d best stay away from her. Otherwise, hmm..."
Halfway through his sentence, the middle-aged man stopped speaking, instead giving a skin-deep smile with an angry snort through his nose.
The threat in his words was unmistakable!
But regarding his threat, Li Chen’s response was concise.
Just one word: "Get lost!"
"Get lost?"
The middle-aged man felt somewhat bewildered, ever since his sister married the Red Sun Marquis as a concubine, no one dared to say "get lost" to him anymore.
After all, you still need to consider the master when hitting a dog!
Moreover, this was in Red Sun City.
The middle-aged man, extremely angry, laughed instead, pointing at Li Chen and shouted, "You insolent brat, do you even know who I am and dare to tell me to get lost?"
Li Chen’s gaze suddenly turned cold, and he said icily, "I have no interest in knowing who you are, but if you don’t get lost quickly, you’ll surely regret coming into this world!"
The middle-aged man was initially stunned, and then burst into hearty laughter.
"I think the one who’ll regret is you!"
Before the middle-aged man’s words fell, a dozen followers quickly surrounded them, each with a fierce look, seeming ready to pounce and tear Li Chen to pieces.
"Go on, cripple him!"
Seeing this scene, everyone present cast sympathetic glances at Li Chen and Ji Lingling.
But sympathy was all they had.
No one dared to step forward and intervene.
After all, this was Red Sun City!
The middle-aged man named Lei Kun was originally a troublemaker in Red Sun City, bullying men and women alike, behaving recklessly.
Now that his sister was in the Marquis Mansion, as a concubine to the Red Sun Marquis.
Lei Kun thus benefited, entered the City Lord Manor, and became the steward within.
With the connection to Red Sun Marquis, Lei Kun was even more arrogant and domineering in Red Sun City, with no one daring to provoke him.
"This young man is really like a newborn calf unafraid of the tiger, who to provoke but Lei Kun!"
"Just last month, Lei Kun took a fancy to a young woman, wanting to forcibly take her. But that woman’s lover disagreed, and Lei Kun beat him to death right on the street. Alas, truly pitiful!"
...
The onlookers chattered, all focusing on Lei Kun, with a touch of sympathy for Li Chen. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
They naturally assumed that Li Chen would end up like that unfortunate soul last month, beaten to death by Lei Kun.
Before the group of thugs pounced, a fierce killing intent flashed in Li Chen’s eyes.
"A bunch of fools!"
Before the words filled with killing intent fell, Li Chen waved his sleeve, and numerous strands of Sword Intent shot out into the sky.
"Splat!"
"Splat!"
"Splat!"
...
In an instant, these bullies who relied on their master’s power and strutted around were all confused, not understanding what had happened before they were all inexplicably killed by Li Chen’s Sword Intent.
"Gasp!"
Seeing such a terrifying scene, everyone present gasped in shock.
Lei Kun was even more dumbfounded, as if petrified on the spot!
With a casual flick, he killed a dozen people. And there were three or four Golden Core cultivators among them, how terrifying is that?
Li Chen brushed his sleeve, his gaze sharp as a sword, locking onto Lei Kun, coldly asking, "Did you just say you want to cripple me?"
At this moment, Lei Kun was trembling all over, shouting desperately, "My sister married into the Red Sun Marquis Mansion, she’s the Red Sun Marquis’ woman. If you dare kill me, my brother-in-law surely won’t let you go!"
He wanted to use the Red Sun Marquis to pressure Li Chen, since the Red Sun Marquis was a genuine Nascent Soul Great Power, not only the overlord of Red Sun City but also renowned for tens of thousands of miles around, even the Elders of Golden Sect and Spiritual Spring Sect had to show respect to the Red Sun Marquis.
However, Li Chen completely ignored Lei Kun’s threats, instead his voice rose coldly, questioning, "Did you say you want to cripple me?"
Seeing that Li Chen had decided on killing intent, Lei Kun was completely stunned on the spot.
After all, one should still consider the master when hitting a dog!
Furthermore, he was not only a dog of the Red Sun Marquis, but also the Marquis’ brother-in-law!
As long as this young man doesn’t want to completely break off with the Red Sun Marquis, he wouldn’t dare do anything to him?
But he actually...
Thinking of this, Lei Kun’s eyes glanced at the scattered bodies, and was terrified beyond measure.
Looks like this time, he really kicked a steel board!
At this moment, his mind began to buzz, entirely blank, leaving only one final thought.
That thought was to escape!
Escape at once, escape quickly, escape immediately!
Having made up his mind, Lei Kun didn’t hesitate, rolled on the ground like a lazy donkey, stepped into an inch, and quickly fled to the distance.
He had quite the knack for escaping.
In the blink of an eye, he had already darted out a hundred feet away.
Unfortunately, this distance was entirely negligible to Li Chen!
Li Chen formed his fingers into a blade, slashed through the air.
"Slash!"
"Ah!"
Lei Kun’s left leg was instantly severed by Li Chen’s vigorous blade, blood gushed forth like a waterfall, spilling all over the street.
Immediately, he hugged his severed leg, bleeding profusely, and emitted wretched screams akin to slaughtering a pig.
Even so, Li Chen showed no intention of letting Lei Kun go, and walked straight towards him.
"Did you say you want to cripple me?"
Lei Kun was completely frightened, clutching his severed leg and begging Li Chen for mercy.
Ji Lingling worried that the matter would escalate, attracting the Red Sun Marquis, and then it would be disadvantageous for Li Chen, so she hurriedly pulled on Li Chen’s arm.
"Young Master, Lei Kun has already been punished enough, we should leave here quickly. Otherwise..."
Ji Lingling wanted to continue, but when Li Chen glanced at her, she promptly closed her mouth, swallowed the rest of her sentence, and covered her mouth with her small hand.
Li Chen withdrew his gaze and looked again at Lei Kun lying in a pool of blood, crying out in agony.
"Since you wanted to cripple me, today I’ll ruin both your arms and legs as punishment!"
...
Updates have been late due to some matters over the last couple of days, asking for understanding, thank you!
