Chapter 266 - 171: All of You, Kneel! And Kneel Properly

Chapter 266: Chapter 171: All of You, Kneel! And Kneel Properly

Ruan Qi, who was off to the side, flew into a rage.

Seeing his younger sister, Ruan Ling’Er, sent flying by a kick, gravely injured and vomiting blood, he was about to explode with rage.

’Who the hell is this? Where did he come from?’

’Is he looking for death?’

The other Ruan family experts with him were also furious, and they all turned to look.

"Motherfucker!"

Ruan Qi bellowed, rushing forward without a second thought.

’We’re all from the younger generation,’ he thought. ’How much stronger can he possibly be?’

’The strongest in their family is just Chai Yuan. Even if they called for backup, could they really have gotten someone from the Inner Realm?’

SLAP!

But he never expected that just as he lunged, Chen Xuan would slap him across the face.

The blow sent him flying, blood spraying from his mouth.

He was barely off the ground when another slap followed.

It was the same relentless slapping he had unleashed on Zhang Yun’Er at Black Demon Mountain.

He slapped with his left hand, then his right—CRACK! CRACK!—trapping Ruan Qi’s head between his palms. He sent the man’s head flying back and forth, but it could never escape the arc of his hands.

At this terrifying sight, the other Ruan family disciples who had been about to charge all froze in their tracks, their faces filled with shock.

"Brother Qi!"

They looked on in horror.

Ruan Qi was the strongest among them.

His Cultivation was at the Fourth Layer of True Essence!

’And he’s completely powerless against this guy?’

’How is that possible?’

In the blink of an eye, Chen Xuan had delivered dozens of slaps before finally stopping.

Ruan Qi’s face was swollen like a pig’s head. He finally fell to the ground with a THUD. Blood streamed from his mouth, nose, and ears. His head was ringing, and he had been beaten nearly unconscious.

"Are you going to keep cursing?"

Chen Xuan’s expression was cold as he looked down at him.

[You have disciplined a master of the Fourth Layer of True Essence. Retribution points +18,000!]

A line of text appeared.

Off to the side, Chai Yuan felt a surge of excitement, so much so that he nearly leaped into the air.

Nearby, Chai Hao and Chai Yu were dumbfounded, a sense of terror rising in their hearts.

’Who is this guy?’

’Where did their Brother Yuan find such a powerhouse? He’s beating Ruan Qi like a dog!’

"You... you..."

Ruan Qi gasped for air, his mouth twitching as blood continued to spill from it.

"I asked if you’re going to keep cursing."

Chen Xuan frowned.

"I’ll stop, I’ll stop."

Ruan Qi replied in terror, trembling all over.

’This is terrifying!’

’My Cultivation is at the Fourth Layer of True Essence, but in his hands, I’m like a baby.’

’The gap between us is just too vast.’

"Do you admit you were wrong?"

"I do, I do."

Ruan Qi said hastily, terrified.

"Then kneel and apologize!"

Chen Xuan’s tone was calm as he glanced at the others. "And the rest of you from the Ruan family," he said, "all of you will kneel. Kneel to my friend Chai Yuan, kowtow to them, and beg for their forgiveness. If they don’t forgive you, I’ll strip you all naked and hang you right here for everyone passing by to get a good, long look!"

"You!!!"

Ruan Qi was horrified.

The other Ruan family experts were also terrified. A few of them immediately tried to flee.

But with a casual wave of Chen Xuan’s hand, a wave of crimson-gold True Qi swept over them. The men who tried to run all spat up mouthfuls of blood as their bones and tendons shattered. They were flung into the distance, crashing to the ground in unbearable agony.

"You... you’re that Chen Xuan!"

Ruan Qi cried out, his face a mask of terror.

The moment he heard the demand to kneel and kowtow, combined with the threat of being stripped naked, Chen Xuan’s name had subconsciously popped into his head.

And now, seeing the man’s clothes and face...

...he saw it was an eighty to ninety percent match for the portraits.

’How could he not understand now!’

’This was the fucking Iron-faced Yama, Chen Xuan!’

’How could Chai Yuan possibly know Chen Xuan?’

’And get him to come here and back him up?’

"What? Chen Xuan?"

The remaining Ruan family disciples were all terrified, a shiver running down their spines.

’The peerless expert who’s been making waves in the outside world recently!’

’An Inner Realm master who’s only twenty years old!’

’The news had even reached them in their Grotto Heaven!’

’And it’s this guy!’

Even Chai Hao and Chai Yu were stunned into disbelief.

Just moments ago, they had been standing by the roadside, and most of the conversations they overheard were about Chen Xuan.

People were talking about how incredible he was, how he had crushed the geniuses of the various Grotto Heavens so thoroughly they couldn’t even raise their heads.

And now, he had suddenly appeared right before them!

’And he was friends with their Brother Yuan?’

’This was just...’

’...too incredible!’

A cold sneer spread across Chai Yuan’s face. He felt an immense sense of satisfaction.

’Excellent! Just excellent! The best thing he’d ever done in his life was to befriend Chen Xuan!’

’This feels amazing!’

’Once he brought Chen Xuan inside, who would dare to lay a hand on him then?’

’Who would dare to bad-mouth him?’

’As for the people from Celestial Might Mountain and Tian Shan... just you wait, I’ll have him tear your mouths off!’

"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH..."

Dozens of meters away, Ruan Ling’Er, who had been sent flying by the kick and had nearly died, coughed up blood. She was both shocked and furious. She was just coming to her senses and about to get up when she suddenly heard the name "Chen Xuan." A violent shiver of fear shot through her.

Recalling Chen Xuan’s infamous reputation in the outside world, she was overcome with terror. She quickly shut her eyes and pretended to be unconscious.

"Did you hear me? Kneel! Kowtow!"

Chen Xuan frowned. "Are you all deaf? Or do you doubt that I’ll make good on my threat?"

"I’ll kneel! I’ll kneel!"

Ruan Qi yelled frantically.

Compared to being stripped naked and hung up by Chen Xuan, kowtowing was a much more acceptable alternative.

He scrambled to his feet, knelt on the ground before Chen Xuan, and immediately began kowtowing, his forehead hitting the ground with a series of loud THUDS.

The other Ruan family disciples quickly followed suit, kneeling and kowtowing.

"Don’t kowtow to me. Kowtow to my friend!"

Chen Xuan said coldly.

Ruan Qi immediately turned and kowtowed to Chai Yuan, Chai Hao, and Chai Yu. As his head hit the ground, he quickly said, "Brother Chai, I beg you, spare me! Please spare me, I was wrong..."

"And that bitch!"

Chen Xuan pointed at Ruan Ling’Er in the distance, then glanced at Chai Yu and Chai Hao. "She was the one who whipped you, wasn’t she? Go on, pick up the whip and pay her back double!"
