Chapter 2282 - 2274: This Kid’s Boastful Talk

"Greetings, Senior Mei." The young master of the Chen Family, Chen Zhaorui, nodded respectfully to the sword-holding female expert.

"Good, good!" The sword-holding female expert, Senior Mei, quickly responded with a smile, with a touch of pride and satisfaction in her expression, as if being addressed as senior by Chen Zhaorui was the highest honor.

Indeed, given Chen Zhaorui’s status, being called senior by him was a great honor, considering that numerous experts from various Supreme Sects of the Central Sacred Dynasty sought the chance to converse with Chen Zhaorui.

At this moment, Chen Zhaorui’s gaze fell upon Huang Xiaolong, who was beside the young girl. Seeing her close to Huang Xiaolong with a friendly demeanor, he could not help but frown.

"And who might this be?" He asked Huang Xiaolong.

"This big brother is a friend I just met." The young girl, hearing the question about Huang Xiaolong, couldn’t help but smile with large, bright eyes as she spoke.

Though they hadn’t conversed much yet, she clearly found Huang Xiaolong to be rather interesting.

Hearing the young girl refer to Huang Xiaolong as "big brother" so affectionately, Chen Zhaorui frowned again.

At this point, the sword-holding female expert, Senior Mei Siyu, quickly explained, "Young Master Chen Zhaorui, please don’t mind our young lady’s nonsense. She just exchanged a few words with this boy and has no other relation to him."

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhaorui felt relieved and nodded with a smile, "Ah, so that’s how it is."

This young girl was actually the daughter of the Sacred Restoration Sect’s Sect Master, from the Supreme Sect of the Central Sacred Dynasty. At a sect banquet years ago, after seeing this girl, Ma Hui, Chen Zhaorui was enamored and pursued her relentlessly, expressing his admiration. However, despite efforts from the Sacred Restoration Sect’s Sect Master to encourage their union, Ma Hui was always indifferent to him.

"Young Master Chen Zhaorui, you may not know, but this boy is utterly unaware of his limits. He was just boasting, saying he would tear down the Chen Family’s gate." said Mei Siyu eagerly reporting to Chen Zhaorui.

"What! Tear down the gate of my Chen Family!" Chen Zhaorui’s eyes flashed coldly as he stared intently at Huang Xiaolong.

Behind him, Chen Family disciples and guards also looked at Huang Xiaolong with cold eyes.

Mei Siyu added, "Indeed, I was just thinking of capturing this boy and bringing him to the Chen Family for you, Young Master Chen Zhaorui, to deal with, but I hadn’t expected you to come yourself."

Saying this, she recounted what Huang Xiaolong had said earlier.

After hearing that Huang Xiaolong claimed a friend of his was being held as a house slave in the Chen Family, and threatened to punch through the Chen Family’s gate if they didn’t release them, Chen Zhaorui’s cold glare intensified.

"Boy, is what Senior Mei said true?" Chen Zhaorui coldly questioned.

"Young Master Chen Zhaorui, don’t listen to Aunt Mei’s nonsense." The young girl Ma Hui quickly defended Huang Xiaolong, saying, "This big brother didn’t say any such thing just now."

Mei Siyu interrupted, "Young lady, there’s no need to defend this boy, not only did I hear it, we all heard it."

The other female disciples from the Sacred Restoration Sect exchanged glances, all nodding in agreement.

Seeing the young girl Ma Hui lie to defend the other, Chen Zhaorui’s eyes grew even colder. With a wave of his hand, he instructed two guards behind him, "You two, go capture this boy first, regardless of his identity, imprison him in the Chen Family dungeon, and then we will address his family elders when they arrive!"

The two guards obediently acknowledged and approached Huang Xiaolong.

"Boy, comply and surrender!" The two guards extended their hands, one on his left, the other on his right, to capture Huang Xiaolong.

Both placed their hands on Huang Xiaolong’s shoulders.

However, just as they did so, an astonishing force emanated from Huang Xiaolong’s shoulders, throwing the guards off, sending them rolling a great distance, crashing into distant shops.

The surrounding pedestrians gasped in astonishment.

Chen Zhaorui, Mei Siyu, and the others were taken aback.

The two Chen Family guards just now were Half-step Supremes, yet were easily thrown by Huang Xiaolong.

After the initial shock, Chen Zhaorui sneered, "No wonder you dared to boast, you have some skills." With that, he personally approached Huang Xiaolong, saying, "Originally, if you had obediently surrendered just now, we would have let it go. Now that you dared to resist, you leave me no choice."

Chen Zhaorui swung his long sword, and a gigantic Sword Dragon emerged, its Sword Qi spouting like the morning glow, radiating brilliant light.

"Dawn Sword!"

The Dawn Sword, one of the deep sword techniques of the Chen Family, was created by an ancestor of the Chen Family.

However, just as Chen Zhaorui’s sword qi was about to strike Huang Xiaolong, it seemed to hit an invisible wall, being completely blocked.

A series of ’ding dong’ sounds echoed as sparks flew from the sword qi.

In surprise, Huang Xiaolong raised a hand, flicked a finger, and Chen Zhaorui’s long sword was knocked out of his hand, thrown high into the air, shattering into pieces. Furthermore, Chen Zhaorui himself was sent flying with a dull thud.

"Young Master Zhaorui!"

The Chen Family disciples and guards’ expressions changed dramatically, quickly trying to catch Chen Zhaorui, only to be met with an astonishing force from him, sending them flying together.

Screams echoed everywhere.

Mei Siyu and the Sacred Restoration Sect disciples were stunned, the young girl Ma Hui’s beautiful eyes filled with shock, not expecting even Chen Zhaorui at the Supreme First Stage Early Stage to be blown away by Huang Xiaolong’s single strike.

Chen Zhaorui, supported by Chen Family disciples, touched the corner of his mouth, finding it all bloody. Both shocked and furious, he looked at Huang Xiaolong. From birth until now, in all these years, it was the first time he was seriously injured like this, especially within the Capital.

He stared at Huang Xiaolong, laughing savagely, "Very well, boy, just you wait!" With that, he commanded the Chen Family disciples and guards, "We are leaving!"

Watching Chen Zhaorui and the Chen Family members make a hasty retreat, Huang Xiaolong did not pursue, allowing them to leave.

"Big brother, you should leave quickly, leave the Central Sacred Dynasty." The young girl Ma Hui urgently advised Huang Xiaolong, "You injured Chen Zhaorui, he won’t let it go."

"Leave?" Mei Siyu sneered, "Injured Young Master Chen Zhaorui and still want to escape? Boy, you can’t even imagine the power of the Chen Family. Even if you had eight legs, you wouldn’t escape. The Chen Family experts will soon be after you, brace yourself for death!"

"Audacious!" The four Guardians of the Holy Sect, seeing Mei Siyu’s continuous disrespect towards Huang Xiaolong, couldn’t help but scold.

Mei Siyu’s eyebrows rose as her gaze fell upon the four Guardians of the Holy Sect, sneering coldly, "Oh, what now, want to fight? Do you believe I can kill all of you and your Master with a single palm strike right now!"

She was a Seventh-stage Supreme.

"Enough, Aunt Mei!" The young girl Ma Hui, hearing this, her expression turned serious, scolded, "Do not be rude to this big brother and these seniors!"

Then she apologized to Huang Xiaolong, "Big brother, sorry, Aunt Mei’s temperament isn’t the best, if her words offended you, please don’t take it to heart! I apologize on her behalf!"

Huang Xiaolong coldly glanced at Mei Siyu. Were it not for the young girl Ma Hui, Mei Siyu would have already been dead countless times.
