BXBX NOVEL Chapter 149
Chapter 149: Resort to Killing
“What? When did he...?”
That was what everyone thought when they turned around like robots. They could not believe it.
Even Miao Ke, who had an arrogant attitude the whole time, could not keep her calm when she spotted the black puppet behind Chen Jingzhai.
Her beautiful mouth was slightly open as her eyes widened in fear.
It was as if she was a lousy stage actor, and Chen Jingzhai almost couldn’t stop himself from laughing.
“What? Where are your manners?” the young man asked.
“You are the Master-Uncle of the Luo Sheng Sword School, not ours!” Liu Mingke was the first to react with scorn. “Heck! This is my first time seeing someone becoming a Master-Uncle before gathering his core!”
“I see. So, you’ve chosen punishment.” Chen Jingzhai remained calm.
Hei Ji, who stood behind her master a second ago, suddenly appeared in front of the son of the Liu family and slapped him.
A simple slap from the black puppet was enough to send the man flying.
The crowd got even more silent as they were too shocked by what they had just witnessed.
Liu Mingke was an Advanced Foundation Plane cultivator, and yet, he couldn’t even react to the slap and was sent flying away like a mortal.
It was just something that most of them would deem impossible.
......
“You bastard!” Liu Mingke finally came to his senses after falling onto the deck and rolling toward the wall.
That was his first time getting slapped. Not even his parents had hit him before.
His pride as a member of a noble family that could represent the entire Pulao Kingdom just could not let it slide.
Anger filled his eyes as they turned red. He couldn’t keep his killing intent from leaking.
He kicked the floor and charged toward Chen Jingzhai, throwing a punch at the young man.
To him, Hei Ji was just a mere puppet, and Chen Jingzhai was the one who had hit him.
It was natural that he would aim his punch at the master of the puppet.
He had summoned his full power to his fist, causing it to glow in golden light.
The punch was so powerful that just its pressure could split rocks apart.
As the Liu family was a noble family that had contributed to the country as much as royalty, it was natural that they had the chance to practice powerful techniques and get their hands on better resources.
Due to his anger, Liu Mingke had forgotten who Chen Jingzhai was and which clan he belonged to. To be more precise, he had forgotten to fear them.
All he wanted to do was return the slap, as it had humiliated not only himself but his entire family as well.
The thought of seeing Chen Jingzhai’s skull cracked open made his expression look even scarier.
However, what he didn’t know was that Hei Ji was the one who was actually the strongest.
Being a Grade 4 sea beast prior to becoming a puppet, she was as powerful as a cultivator in the Beginning Nascent Plane.
Even if she was only able to utilize 70 percent of her original power, a single flick of her finger was enough to handle Liu Mingke.
Hei Ji wasn’t fazed, nor did she underestimate her opponent. So she used two fingers instead.
After appearing in front of Liu Mingke again, she flicked her fingers toward his arm, putting a hole in it.
With a loud cry, the son of the Liu family was sent tumbling toward the wooden barrels on the deck.
Hei Ji had perfect control over her strength, to the point that none of the barrels were broken.
Instead of the pain, Liu Mingke was now trembling in front of the pressure that Hei Ji had exerted.
“Hey! Isn’t too much?” Xu Qing of the Serenity Hollow Clan frowned.
Liu Mingke spat blood out of his mouth while his body trembled.
Miao Ke took a deep breath and bowed to Chen Jingzhai. “Our apologies, Master-Uncle. Please forgive Liu Mingke for our mistake and disrespect.”
“Why should I forgive any of you?” Chen Jingzhai calmly said. “I was living a calm and peaceful life in Donglai County, and you just had to disturb me. And you are asking for my forgiveness? Did you forget who you are and who I am because you’ve been enjoying the attention these disciple nephews have given you?”
“A-apologies. Please, we’ll accept any punishment...” Miao Ke said pitifully.
Unlike Miao Yun, Miao Ke was a master at using her beauty.
Both Xu Qing and Fan Mingge couldn’t hold themselves back after seeing her cute expression.
They felt as if they had been humiliated in front of their beautiful Miao Ke.
“Miao Ke, you don’t have to bow to someone like him! Who does he think he is?” Fan Mingge, from the Will Celestial Clan, scolded. “He’s not our Master-Uncle, and he doesn’t have the right to punish us!”
“You’re right.” Chen Jingzhai grinned. “Strength is the only important thing in the cultivation world. Logic would never work. You sure are the disciple of a celestial clan; I’ll give you that.”
Before Chen Jingzhai could even finish his sentence, Hei Ji charged toward Fan Mingge.
Everyone on board the Soaring Clouds Ship was a genius of their own clan or family. That was why they were such a prideful bunch.
Perhaps because of Sage Xu’s interference, they held hostility toward Chen Jingzhai before they had even met him.
However, it didn’t matter much to the young man. Hei Ji’s action was his wish.
He was the Master-Uncle of the Luo Sheng Sword School, and he had to show the disciples their place.
If he couldn’t handle them, he would no longer have the face to return to the clan.
Hei Ji’s movement was swift, but Fan Mingge was able to sense the danger and quickly jumped back.
At the same time, a person suddenly appeared in front of Fan Mingge, which was quickly followed by a loud explosion.
What everyone saw after that was a hole in a man’s chest and a heart in Hei Ji’s hand.
“Uncle Zhou!” Fan Mingge cried out as his eyes turned red.
That man was a Golden Core Sage and his guardian, who had been with him since he was a child.
However, that same man now had a huge hole where his heart should be.
“How about we stop this?” Sage Zhou asked as his face turned pale while looking at Chen Jingzhai. “The Will Celestial Clan does not wish to fight off the Luo Sheng Sword School.”
“I’m just teaching your disciple some manners. There’s no need to bring our clans into this,” Chen Jingzhai calmly replied. “However, why do I feel like you are threatening me? I’ll have you know that won’t work. Also, I wasn’t wrong from the beginning. It’s my responsibility to ensure the disciples become upright people, and I have proven I’m strong enough to do so. Not even all of the four Golden Core Sages here can stop me.”
“How dare you!” Another person suddenly appeared next to Xu Qing.
“Oh? Does the Sage of the Serenity Hollow Clan want to challenge me as well?” The young man grinned.
He had already detected the presence of all four Golden Core Sages onboard the Soaring Clouds Ship.
There was no way he wouldn’t be able to when he was able to perfectly detect Su Qinghuang, who was a few kilometers away.
Also, Hei Ji would’ve reminded him if he had not detected them.
Before the bloody heart hit the deck, Hei Ji disappeared once again.
The next second, she reappeared next to Xu Qing, which was followed by a loud and painful scream.
This time, she held a ripped arm in her hand.
“Master-Uncle Yang!” Xu Qing’s face turned pale.
“I’m fine. I had underestimated them...” Sage Yang gritted his teeth.
“Your reaction is applaudable. Who knew you were able to avoid getting killed?” Chen Jingzhai shook his head. “At least the Serenity Hollow Clan is not garbage.”
“How about we stop this here?” Sage Yang suggested.
“I don’t mind that, but I can’t speak for the others.” The young man smiled.
“You are acting like this because of your puppet!” A deep voice could be heard. “Let’s see how long you can sustain it with your Foundation Establishment Plane cultivation...”
“You’re making my ears bleed.” Chen Jingzhai sighed.
And once again, Hei Ji disappeared.
Before the arm fell to the deck, she had already grabbed the Sage hiding in the shadows and pinned him down.
The impact was so powerful that the whole ship shook, and Miao Ke’s face turned paler.
Chen Feiyu saw that and gripped his fists tightly, but he remained silent.
“Hah! It’s not like you can kill us!” Liu Mingke yelled.
That was his first time being humiliated to such an extent, and it had to happen in front of Miao Ke, the woman he loved the most.
He had gone insane after seeing three Golden Core Sages get heavily wounded.
However, the moment he said that everyone’s expression changed.
“Well, you asked for it. From today onward, the Liu family will cease to exist. I’ll prove to you how capable the Master-Uncle of the Luo Sheng Sword School is.”
He then took his clan token out.
It floated in front of him and began to shine.
“Puppet Temple! I hereby order you to eliminate the Liu family in six hours!” Sage Qing Mu’s cold voice was emitted from the token.
Chen Jingzhai laughed and waved his arm, sending a wave of cold energy toward Liu Mingke that froze the son of the prestigious Liu family.
And with another wave of his arm, he took Liu Mingke away while everyone else was watching.
