Chapter 30: Chapter 31: A Peanut to Kill a Dark Energy Martial Artist
"Heh heh,"
a sinister laugh sounded.
"I didn’t expect you to discover us!"
A plump and a skinny man slowly appeared at the Su residence, their bodies radiating intense killing intent.
Old Master Su’s pupils suddenly shrank, shocked, he said, "It’s the Smiling Tiger! Ghost Hand!"
"Since you know us, you should know what to do, right?" Smiling Tiger jeered.
"What’s the background of these two?" Ye Wudao asked curiously while nibbling on peanuts.
"They are assassins from the Jiang family, one of Jiang Hai Province’s four great noble families. They are very powerful, both masters listed on the Dark Force Ranking!" Old Master Su said warily.
"What exactly is this Dark Force Ranking?" Ye Wudao asked curiously.
"The Dark Force Ranking is a list issued by the Yanyu Tower, one of Dragon Country’s top powers. It’s highly authoritative and fair. Candidates must be Martial Artists of the Hidden Strength status, and those on the list are very strong; the weakest are in the late stages of Hidden Strength! Smiling Tiger is ranked ninety-two, Ghost Hand ninety-seven. They are terrifying; even at my peak, I wasn’t necessarily able to defeat these two," Old Master Su explained, his face looking troubled.
"Oh." Ye Wudao continued sipping his drink, appearing indifferent.
"Su Tiesheng, the Xu family has been backed by our Chen family all these years! Now that the Xu family has been destroyed, you have two options in front of you!"
"One, submit to our Jiang family, hand over seventy percent of your profits annually, and we will be your backers!" Smiling Tiger held up two fingers; "Two, death!"
So, it was the Jiang family.
He suspected that with Xu Xiong’s capabilities, he couldn’t have advanced to Dark Force so quickly.
Hearing Smiling Tiger’s threats, Old Master Su clenched his fists tightly.
He knew well that the Jiang family was one of the four great noble families in Jiang Hai Province, and they could easily crush the Su family.
But Su Tiesheng was not one to live at the mercy of others!
"Asking Su to cling to your support for a pitiful existence, sorry, can’t do it!"
Ye Wudao continued eating his peanuts indifferently, unsurprised by Su Tiesheng’s choice.
"Heh heh, Su Tiesheng, do you really think you’re still the River South Tiger who once ranked seventy-nine on the Dark Force Ranking?"
"In the past, you were stronger than the two of us, but now you’re just trash. Times have changed," Smiling Tiger’s body unleashed a frightening killing intent; "Die."
"Hold on, there are a few girls at the table who look quite nice," Ghost Hand’s gaze settled on the trio including Su Yueli; "let’s not harm them."
The womanizing Smiling Tiger, seeing the faces of Su Yueli and the others, displayed a lecherous expression and laughed, "I didn’t expect that a trip to Jiang Nan would reward me with three top beauties. It really made the trip worthwhile! Su Tiesheng, hand over these three beauties, and I might spare your life!"
"In your dreams!" Su Tiesheng’s face turned ashen.
"Refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit, don’t blame me for being impolite then!"
Smiling Tiger charged like lightning, and despite his bulky figure, his speed was extremely quick, his palm charged with incredible power as he struck at Su Tiesheng.
"So fast, impossible to dodge!" Su Tiesheng bitterly smiled, took a deep breath, and prepared for certain death.
No sooner said than done.
Just as Smiling Tiger’s palm was about to hit Su Tiesheng, in a flash of lightning, a hand, firm as a dragon’s claw, grasped Smiling Tiger’s head.
Bang!
Ye Wudao, with one hand holding Smiling Tiger’s head, smashed it hard on the edge of the table.
"Ah!" Smiling Tiger screamed, blood spilling from his nose and mouth, shocked to death on the spot.
Ye Wudao, like throwing out the trash, discarded the body, picked up a napkin from the table, and elegantly wiped his hands; "Interrupting my meal has serious consequences!"
With one hand, Ye Wudao killed Smiling Tiger, ranked ninety-two on the Dark Force Ranking. His strength could definitely rank in the top twenty of the Dark Force Ranking, absolutely a peak Hidden Strength master.
"So strong!!" Old Master Su was astonished.
Hiss!
Seeing this, Gui Shou sharply inhaled a cold breath, stumbled backward, his pupils filled with terror.
"Who are you, exactly?"
"You aren’t qualified to know," Ye Wudao, holding a peanut with chopsticks and placing it in his mouth, said indifferently, "Choose a way to die, like him, or something else?"
"Just you wait, the Jiang family won’t let you get away with this!" Gui Shou, daring not to fight, threw down a harsh sentence and turned to retreat.
Ye Wudao, without looking up, pinched a peanut between his fingers and flicked it.
Whoosh!
The peanut, like a bullet, pierced through the air and instantly penetrated the back of Gui Shou’s head, blood splattering.
Gui Shou fell to the ground, dead on the spot.
A single peanut, killing a dark energy-ranked martial artist!!
That’s too exaggerated!
The scene was deathly silent.
Su Tiesheng’s mouth hung agape, his inner shock tumultuous like overturning seas and rivers.
At that moment, he was jolted from a great dream, realizing Ye Wudao was possibly not the dark energy martial artist he had thought!
A Transformation Energy expert!
Su Tiesheng speculated in his heart.
He must be a Transformation Energy expert, or even something stronger!
"Old Su, don’t just stand there, continue drinking!" Ye Wudao, stuffing another peanut into his mouth, said with a smile.
Su Tiesheng tremulously picked up a cup of wine and, without waiting for Ye Wudao to raise his cup, downed it in one gulp.
"To entrust Yueli to you, I can die without regrets!"
Ye Wudao, smiling, patted Su Tiesheng on the shoulder and said, "Those last two moves were nothing. When I’m free, I’ll teach you a few ruthless ones."
Ruthless?
Su Tiesheng’s eyes lit up, too excited to know how to respond.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
Just then, a sound emanated from Ye Wudao’s body.
"What’s that noise?"
He followed the sound and took out a continuously trembling white token from his body.
"What’s happening?"
Shocked, Su Tiesheng said, "This is a distress signal from a token of the Northern King’s Hall. It’s not good, there must be a member of the Northern King’s Hall injured nearby!"
"Northern King’s Hall? Is that the force you said was created by the Northern King?" Ye Wudao asked.
"Yes, I was just an ordinary old soldier in the Northern King’s Hall back then. After the Northern King fell, the Northern King’s Hall was disbanded!" Su Tiesheng said with a tone full of loss and regret.
Just then.
Swipe!
A burly figure appeared staggering, drenched in blood, and heavily fell to the ground.
Su Tiesheng stood up, his face full of shock, and said, "One of the Northern King’s Hall’s five mighty warriors—Xiong Fei?!"
