The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 784 - 780: Escape! Escape! Escape!

The debating hall of Tianshan Sect suddenly fell deathly silent as Fang Zhiyong, Qiu Yuanlong, and Wang Zhongtian released the full force of their True Energy from within their bodies. Their palms clenched tightly into fists, thick veins bulging on the backs of their hands, as boundless rage churned within them.

The aura emanating from a Primordial Heaven Realm fellow and two Sky-Breaking Realm Peak experts was not something ordinary people could withstand. The temperature around seemed to have suddenly dropped significantly. The highest cultivation among the Tianshan Sect disciples present was only at the Initial Stage of Innate. Feeling increasingly uncomfortable, they finally felt a sweetness in their throats, and blood spurted from their mouths.

Wang Zhongtian slightly reined in his aura and bellowed in anger, "Speak, what exactly happened here? Who killed my son?"

Looking at the body of his son, Wang Anqi, lying on the stretcher with a dagger still stuck in his heart, Wang Zhongtian, who only had this one son, cherished him deeply. Wang Anqi’s cultivation talent was decent; at just over twenty years old, he had already reached the Middle Stage of Innate. Naturally, Wang Zhongtian doted on his son immensely, and now to see his only son reduced to a corpse, how could Wang Zhongtian bear it?

After sensing Wang Zhongtian’s rage, although he was overshadowing the hosts with his strong presence, neither Fang Zhiyong nor Qiu Yuanlong said anything. Wang Zhongtian was the Sect Master of a first-class power, Yun Tian Sect, and now that his son had died at Tianshan Sect, should Fang Zhiyong and the others speak carelessly, Wang Zhongtian might vent his fury upon Tianshan Sect.

The closed-door disciples of the Second Elder and Third Elder, Zheng Tongli and Hua Weiyang, had pale faces. They wiped the blood from the corners of their mouths with the backs of their hands, and their backs were completely drenched in sweat. The aura of the Primordial Heaven Initial Stage and Sky-Breaking Realm Peak experts was no joking matter. It felt like they had just walked along the brink of death, and not only them, the other Tianshan Sect disciples present felt this terrifying sensation as well.

Zheng Tongli and Hua Weiyang dragged the collapsed manager Huang and Li Weida up from the ground. After all, with manager Huang at Lower Grade of Heaven Rank and Li Weida at the power of Yellow Rank, both were utterly unable to endure the aura from the likes of Fang Zhiyong and the others. They had already suffered severe internal injuries.

"Sect Master Wang, Sect Leader, Great Elder, these two witnessed the entire incident. Let them explain the situation to you," Zheng Tongli said very respectfully to Wang Zhongtian and the others.

Li Weida, a minor figure at the Yellow Rank, had been scared out of his wits by the series of events. Fortunately, manager Huang quickly came to his senses, hurriedly bowed to Fang Zhiyong and the others, then tremblingly said, "To report to the Sect Leader, this is what happened..."

Manager Huang detailed how Ye Chenfeng had killed the Fourth Elder, Feng Qianshui, and Fang Ziping among others. Wang Zhongtian didn’t hear the answer he wanted, and he continued to press, "Who is the killer? How did they enter your Tianshan Sect?"

Hearing the stern questioning from Wang Zhongtian, a shiver ran through manager Huang’s heart, and just as he didn’t know how to respond, Li Weida, who had been frightened senseless, suddenly snapped back to his senses. He hurriedly said, "Those two were hired help brought in by manager Huang, who even took six silver bars from them. I saw this with my own eyes; this has nothing to do with me, truly nothing to do with me."

As soon as Li Weida finished speaking, the raging fire in Wang Zhongtian’s heart could no longer be contained, and he needed to find an outlet for his anger, and so manager Huang and Li Weida met their doom.

Wang Zhongtian’s figure suddenly appeared in front of manager Huang and Li Weida, his hands seizing their heads, and like crushing eggs, he directly crushed their skulls, blood and brain matter splattering his forearms.

"Zhongtian, better to cool your anger for now; this isn’t the time to lose control. My son died at their hands too. Finding the murderer is what’s most important at the moment," Fang Zhiyong advised. The dead manager Huang and Li Weida didn’t matter to him; he was more worried that Wang Zhongtian would kill the other disciples of Tianshan Sect present as well.

"Hmph!" Wang Zhongtian snorted coldly from his nose and furiously said, "Fang Zhiyong, this matter originated with your Tianshan Sect. If you cannot give me a satisfactory explanation, I have no qualms about wiping your Tianshan Sect out."

Listening to Wang Zhongtian’s naked threat, Fang Zhiyong’s face grew even uglier, but he knew that as the Sect Master of Yun Tian Sect, Wang Zhongtian certainly had the capability to carry it out. So he could only force a dry laugh and say, "Sect Master Wang, now that my son is dead and four of my sect’s Elders are dead, including the Great Elder’s grandson and grand-nephew, I’m even more eager to find the murderer. We should join forces at this time."

"Sect Master Wang, Sect Leader, based on what Steward Huang just said, the attacker is merely a youth in his twenties. Elder Four had the strength of the Initial Stage of the Sky-Breaking Realm, yet the assailant killed him with one move. Even if it was an unexpected sneak attack, the assailant would have to possess at least the strength of the Sky-Breaking Realm. People of such young age with such an ability probably have a complex background behind them!" Qiu Yuanlong’s eyes flickered with a fierce light. The death of his grand-nephew Zhong Yang was not a big deal since Zhong Yang was only of the Middle Grade Heaven Rank, but the death of his grandson Qiu Lengyao had sent his rage soaring to its peak. Qiu Lengyao and Fang Ziping were recognized as the two greatest geniuses of the Tianshan Sect.

"No matter who it is, the person killed my son, and I must make him disappear from this world," Wang Zhongtian said, slamming his palm down on a table beside him. With a "Bang!" the table instantly turned into a pile of wood shavings.

Zheng Tongli hastily spoke up, "Please, Sect Master Wang, calm your anger. My teacher has already gone after the murderer."

Hua Weiyang also quickly added, "My teacher has gone as well, and I believe there will soon be news of the murderer’s whereabouts."

"Sect Master Wang, now that the Second Elder and Third Elder of my Tianshan Sect have already set out in pursuit of the murderer, I ask that you remain at the Tianshan Sect for a few more days. Both the Second and Third Elders have the strength of the Middle Stage of the Sky-Breaking Realm, and their coordination is impeccable. Even against a Peak Sky-Breaking expert, they’d stand a chance to fight," Fang Zhiyong said, looking at Wang Zhongtian. After this incident, it was clear that Fang Zhiyong and Wang Zhongtian were no longer as amicable as before.

...

While Wang Zhongtian, Fang Zhiyong, Qiu Yuanlong, and others were seething with anger,

Ye Chenfeng, carrying Xia Zining, fled into a dense forest after leaving the Tianshan Sect, unaware that he had killed a scion of a first-rate power and unwittingly set up an even more formidable enemy for himself.

However, even if Ye Chenfeng had been aware that he had offended another first-rate power, he had no time to worry about that now, because shortly after escaping the Tianshan Sect with Xia Zining tucked under his arm, two old men had begun to chase after him. Both elders possessed the strength of the Middle Stage of the Sky-Breaking Realm, their speed was no joke. Although Ye Chenfeng used the Storm Step Technique, he was still burdened by Xia Zining. The distance between them was gradually closing, but at a crucial moment, Ye Chenfeng darted into the forest, an area he had already scouted and where he had set various traps.

Upon entering the forest, Ye Chenfeng led Xia Zining towards the trapped areas, and as expected, the two elders fell for them time after time. Consequently, their speed diminished, giving Ye Chenfeng a brief respite.

Xia Zining, clutched at Ye Chenfeng’s waist, was jostled so much by his erratic steps and speed that she felt dizzy, but after seeing the two old men chasing them, she did not voice any complaints.

With the two elders behind them slowing down, Xia Zining’s thoughts began to clear, and she suddenly felt something unusual at her chest. She looked down and to her shock, saw Ye Chenfeng’s right hand covering one of her "peaks," his hand continuously kneading it.

This made Xia Zining bite her lip with shame and rage. When she looked up at Ye Chenfeng and saw his serious expression, she thought to herself, "Could it be that he did it unintentionally? It must be so; it must be so. There are still enemies pursuing us! How could his mind wander to such matters!"

Little did she know, our Comrade Ye Chenfeng was doing it deliberately. Carrying the burden that was Xia Zining proved troublesome; had it been only Ye Chenfeng, he likely would have been able to lose the pursuers by now. Fortunately, he had prepared many traps in the forest in advance, which for the moment prevented the two elders from catching up. Therefore, Comrade Ye Chenfeng did not mind taking some small advantages and reaping some rewards from Xia Zining, taking such liberties without the burden of responsibility. (To be continued.
