Unfettered Retribution: Slaughtering My Way through the World Chapter 66: You Actually Dared to Come?

"What did you say?"

Li Canghai could hardly believe his ears.

Everyone in the great hall paled, their gazes snapping toward Chen Xuan.

’Has this kid gone mad?’

’What nonsense is he spouting?’

"Fight . Kill , or be killed by !"

Chen Xuan’s eyes burned as he stared at Li Canghai, his fighting spirit surging. "Didn’t you say I’m not strong enough? After all this talk, a single fight will settle it."

"Insolent!"

Li Canghai burst into a furious laugh.

’Is this motherfucker insane?’

’What’s your Cultivation?’

’How dare you speak to like that?’

’I am a dignified Gang Energy master. Are you even worthy of making a scene in front of ?’

"Get lost!"

Li Canghai waved his sleeve. "I don’t have ti to waste on your lip service!"

"What lip service? A fair fight between us. Life and death will be decided by fate!"

Chen Xuan moved to block his path again, locking eyes with him.

"Elder Li, take a good look. This is your new disciple. He’s this impulsive already, and you still want him to be an Out Affairs Steward? Do you think that’s possible?"

Li Canghai shot Li Changsheng a furious, mocking look.

"We’ll only know if I’m courting death after we fight. Co on, let’s have a match!"

Chen Xuan’s eyes burned as he stared at him.

"Alright, that’s enough."

From the main seat, Alliance Leader Luo Hongtian waved his hand gently, a smile on his face. "We are all brothers here. How did a simple discussion turn into a squabble? I do indeed wish to cultivate a new generation of young talent. However, the position of Out Affairs Steward must be considered carefully. How about this? Allow a few days to think it over."

"Yes, Alliance Leader!"

Everyone cupped their fists in assent.

"Mm, you’re all dismissed."

Luo Hongtian waved his hand lightly, then rose and departed.

Within the great hall, the crowd began to disperse.

’Those two old bastards... daring to plot against behind my back...’

Li Changsheng’s eyes narrowed as he stared in the direction Li Canghai and Su Muyun had departed, his heart seething with hidden resentnt.

"Chen Xuan, you were too impulsive just now."

Hong Wentong walked over and sighed. "That Li Canghai is a genuine Gang Energy Realm master. How could you possibly defeat him in a fight?"

"What layer of Gang Energy?"

Chen Xuan asked.

"Even if he’s only at the first layer, that’s not sothing any Transforming Force practitioner can contend with."

Hong Wentong lanted.

"So which layer is he at?"

"The first layer!"

Li Changsheng’s expression was grim. "He used to be at the Third Layer. But then he was injured and nearly died. He was lucky to be saved, but after he recovered, his strength had fallen to the first layer."

"The first layer?"

Chen Xuan’s expression turned slightly cold.

’With my three great talents, I might not even lose to a second layer.’

’Still, I should raise my Cultivation as quickly as possible.’

’Cultivation is the only thing that matters.’

[You were neither servile nor overbearing, bravely resisting in the hall and facing Li Canghai’s pressure directly. Your heart is gratified. 3000 retribution points!]

"Hm?"

’I even get points for this!’

A glint flashed in Chen Xuan’s eyes.

"Chen Xuan, wait here at the main alliance headquarters for the next few days. I will do everything in my power to fight for you."

Li Changsheng said.

"Yes, Teacher!"

Chen Xuan responded.

The group walked out of the great hall.

Without pausing, Chen Xuan imdiately headed toward the rit Hall.

"I’m here for the Thundercloud Grass!"

Chen Xuan got straight to the point.

"Ah, it’s you."

The person in charge of the rit Hall looked awkward and gave a strained laugh. "Well... about the Thundercloud Grass... there’s none left."

"None left?"

Chen Xuan frowned. "How can there be none left? Weren’t there still six stalks yesterday?"

"Ahem, perhaps it was a mistake in the registry. There really are none left."

The middle-aged man said, looking embarrassed.

"Liar!"

Chen Xuan’s eyes went cold. He grabbed the man’s wrist with his large hand and squeezed, making the man cry out in pain. It felt as if his wrist bone was about to shatter.

"What are you doing? Fighting is strictly forbidden within the alliance..."

"You dare lie to ? I’m not afraid even if we take this to the Alliance Leader! Yesterday, you swore to there were six stalks left, and today you say there are none. Speak! What’s going on?"

Chen Xuan increased the pressure in his grip, glaring at the man viciously. "If you don’t talk, I’ll shatter your arm bone and turn you into a cripple!"

"Don’t!"

The middle-aged man’s face turned pale with horror. "I’ll talk! The Thundercloud Grass was just taken by Elder Hu..."

"Elder Hu? Which Elder Hu?"

Chen Xuan’s tone was ice-cold.

"Elder Hu Yu..."

The middle-aged man replied quickly, "I told him the Thundercloud Grass was reserved for you, but he took it by force anyway. And he told to pass on a ssage: if you want the Thundercloud Grass, you should go talk to him yourself. I... I was thinking it’s better to avoid trouble, so I didn’t tell you..."

"Where is he?"

Chen Xuan’s expression darkened.

’I don’t even know this Elder Hu Yu.’

’I had already reserved the Thundercloud Grass, yet he forcefully intercepted it.’

’He’s clearly looking for trouble.’

"Wh-what are you going to do?"

The middle-aged man’s voice trembled.

’Is he really going to go after him?’

"Elder Hu Yu is not an easy person to deal with. You’d better not do anything rash..."

The middle-aged man said hastily.

"I’ll ask one more ti. Where is he?"

Chen Xuan’s tone was sharp and cold.

"In the Out Affairs Steward Hall."

The middle-aged man said quickly.

"What’s his Cultivation?"

"Transforming Force Ninth Layer. But he definitely won’t fight you. He’s just trying to provoke you. You’ll fall into his trap if you attack. You have to stay calm!"

The middle-aged man said hastily.

"Fine!"

Chen Xuan responded, letting go of the man’s arm. He turned and walked away, disappearing from the spot in an instant.

"He’s crazy! Is this guy crazy?"

The middle-aged man’s eyes widened.

’Is he really going to cause trouble for him?’

Gritting his teeth, the middle-aged man quickly followed, wanting to see what would happen.

「The Out Affairs Steward Great Hall.」

It was responsible for handling all the daily affairs of the main alliance, a position similar to a logistics departnt.

At this very mont, Hu Yu was lounging on a recliner, holding a colorful, ornately carved porcelain teacup. The cup was filled with fragrant tea, which he swirled gently, his face full of disdain.

The thought of what happened in the great hall today left him extrely displeased.

’A re youth from so minor gang below dared to publicly embarrass elders like them?’

’If he doesn’t get taught a lesson, what will happen next?’

As it happened, he, Hu Yu, was also a mber of the Left Vein.

He had always been on good terms with Elder Li and Elder Su.

Ordinarily, he would have had no way to get at Chen Xuan. But as luck would have it, when he went to the rit Hall today, he overheard its director, Xu Bao, ntion that Chen Xuan was coming to redeem six stalks of Thundercloud Grass.

Although he didn’t know what Chen Xuan wanted the Thundercloud Grass for, it didn’t stop him from wanting to teach the boy a lesson.

’Young people should have the humility of young people!’

’Running his mouth the mont he shows up.’

’That’s a good way to get yourself killed.’

So, he had taken the six stalks of Thundercloud Grass without a second thought.

’If that Chen Xuan is bold enough, he can co and ask for them.’

’Let’s see if I’ll coddle him.’

’Little punk, so what if you can kill soone at the Transforming Force Ninth Layer? I won’t fight you at all. Once you’re on my turf, you have to play by the rules. If you so much as bare your teeth, I’ll report you to the Alliance Leader and make sure you face dire consequences.’

Hu Yu’s face was filled with contempt.

’So what if your master is Li Changsheng?’

’In terms of backing, the Left Vein masters behind him were in no way inferior to Li Changsheng.’

"Tell the people outside that if soone cos looking for , say I’m not here!"

Hu Yu said coldly.

WHOOSH!

The words had barely left his mouth when the sound of a sharp, rapid gust of wind ca from outside. It was incredibly fast, accompanied by an indescribable sense of majesty and scorching heat.

Hu Yu quickly turned his head.

He saw a tall man in a black robe who had already appeared right in front of him.

’Chen Xuan...’

Hu Yu was shocked and furious.

’He actually dared to co?’

’What does he think this place is?’

"Was it you who took my Thundercloud Grass?"

Chen Xuan asked in a cold voice the mont he saw him.

"You want the Thundercloud Grass?"

Hu Yu suddenly sneered, getting up from his recliner. "That’s right, I took it. What are you going to do about it? How dare you, in my territory..."

BOOM!

SPLAT!

With a muffled thud, Qi Energy surged.

Chen Xuan’s body moved as if teleporting, appearing before him in an instant. A fist had already slamd viciously into his abdon, unleashing a terrifying force that nearly killed him on the spot. He let out a blood-curdling scream as blood sprayed from all seven of his orifices.

His entire stout body flew up from the ground.

The mont he was airborne, Chen Xuan slapped him across the face.

The five terrifyingly strong fingers carried an explosive force. With a loud SLAP, the blow nearly caved in his facial features, sending blood and bits of flesh flying everywhere as if they were worthless.

A shrill wail escaped his mouth as his body plumted from mid-air. He slamd onto the ground with a THUD, his consciousness fading. Overwheld by excruciating pain, he could only let out pathetic, whimpering cries.

He was barely recognizable as human!
