Chapter 1024: Remember to Honor Your Bet

“In your dreams,” Uncle Wang retorted discourteously. “You are courageous. Just kill everyone on our warship. Worst case, we’ll just destroy each other indiscriminately. After all, if we mess up the City Lord’s plans, the Mo Clan will not have a good ending.”

“You are rather stubborn, old fool. Since we came here today, we are not afraid of perishing with your Mo Clan!”

Liu Feng smiled maliciously. Liu Clan’s First Elder, the grandmaster-level Martial Sage beside him, stepped forward and clenched his hand tightly into a fist.

Lightning flickered on the fist, crackling endlessly. A huge goshawk image enveloped the old man. As he punched, the goshawk spread its wings.

Electric light flowed on the old man’s body as it spread out through his arm. As the goshawk spread its wings, his fist erupted with horrible electrical power.

Uncle Wang crossed his arms and blocked this lightning-quick punch in the time it took for a spark to fly. “Bang!” He flew back like a fired cannonball.

Blood spurted out of Uncle Wang’s mouth. After he landed on the deck, his legs buckled, and he stumbled back a few more steps.

At this moment, the difference between a grandmaster-level Martial Sage and a Superior Grade Martial Sage was clear.

Horror spread in the hearts of all the Mo Clan cultivators without exception.

At some point in time, Xiao Chen had arrived at the control room. Together with Mo Chen, he watched the situation through the water screens.

Mo Chen said softly, “Grandmaster-level Martial Sage, this is really problematic. The Liu Clan is shedding all cordiality, even to the extent of ruining the mission that the City Lord gave us.”

“Are the consequences of failing the mission harsh?” Xiao Chen asked.

“The City Lord’s Residence is the strongest in the Shattered Cloud Sea. The City Lord himself is a quasi-Emperor, a major character who can stir up the winds and clouds with a wave of his hand. You can easily imagine the dire consequences of angering the City Lord.”

“Strange. It is clearly the Liu Clan sabotaging the mission, causing your failure. The City Lord should find trouble for the Liu Clan, instead.”

“That won’t happen. The City Lord only wants results and does not care about the process. He never cares about the struggles between the various factions as long as we pay him tribute on time.”

Mo Chen took out a spatial ring and handed it to Xiao Chen. “Help me to pass this Cyclic Meteor Iron to them. We will return and think of some method to deal with the City Lord’s reproach.”

Xiao Chen had not expected this girl to be so decisive, immediately giving up when she should.

Instead of taking the ring, he smiled faintly and said, “Actually, as your bodyguard, I can help you solve the problem before you. Of course, the caveat is that you admit defeat in the bet first.”

Behind the veil, Mo Chen said calmly, “With your strength, you might manage to deal with that grandmaster-level Martial Sage. However, there are still three Superior Grade Martial Sages. Even if Steward Wang blocks one, the remaining two can still sweep through the entire Purple Cloud Warship.”

When she saw that Xiao Chen was unwilling to take the ring, she added anxiously in a rush, “Don’t do anything rash. All you have to do is guard me. You don’t have to concern yourself with other matters.”

“Remember to admit to your loss after your defeat. I will help you to deal with this problem.”

Xiao Chen pushed off the ground, and his figure flashed, immediately vanishing from the control room.

After knocking Uncle Wang back with one punch, the Liu Clan First Elder did not stop moving. He turned into a goshawk and spread his wings. As he attacked, electric light flashed.

The Liu Clan First Elder kept attacking Uncle Wang. In less than ten moves, Uncle Wang was severely injured and weakened.

“Let’s go to the control room. I will personally find the Mo Clan’s Young Miss!”

Seeing that Uncle Wang kept his mouth shut even after being beaten into a sorry state, Liu Feng headed for the warship’s hold without any hesitation.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

On hearing these words, the originally fearful Mo Clan cultivators gathered and blocked the entrance to the warship’s hold. They pointed their weapons at Liu Feng, showing resolute looks on their faces.

With such subordinates, no wonder Mo Chen was willing to give up the Cyclic Meteor Iron and did not think of escaping by herself.

“Scram. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being merciless,” Liu Feng said in a cold voice with a frown.

This development was somewhat surprising. He had not expected the Mo Clan cultivators to be so brave and unyielding.

“The Liu Clan’s people are too overbearing. Let’s fight it out with them!” someone shouted, and the group of Mo Clan cultivators all charged.

“What a joke. Having more people is useless.”

Liu Feng snorted coldly. The four people by him all attacked at the same time. With the four working together and a grandmaster-level Martial Sage leading them, nearly no one could block them.

No matter how tenacious a will, before absolute strength, there would not be any miracles.

Liu Feng and his group pushed forward easily. Miserable shrieks rang out nonstop. They severely injured all the Mo Clan cultivators, driving them to the deck, unable to rise again.

In mere moments, no Mo Clan cultivator remained standing on the deck.

Liu Feng smiled coldly and said, “Just a bunch of rubbish, and you want to block this Young Master’s way? Scram!”

“If you want to seek trouble for the Young Miss, you have to ask this old man first if he agrees.”

Uncle Wang, who was already severely injured and lying on the deck, burst forth with a final surge of strength and roared angrily. Then, he charged over to Liu Feng with blood-shot eyes.

A berserk aura and startling killing Qi erupted with Uncle Wang’s full-power strike. He pushed his Heavenly Sage Laws to their limits. Liu Feng looked back and was startled to see this.

If Uncle Wang managed to strike him with this furious punch, given Liu Feng’s cultivation, Liu Feng would be severely injured.

“You overestimate yourself!”

The lips of the Liu Clan First Elder at Liu Feng’s side curled up. A pair of electric wings appeared behind his back, storing up power and forming a pillar of electric light, which soared into the sky from his body.

Just as Uncle Wang attacked, the wings behind the Liu Clan First Elder’s back suddenly spread out. In that instant, they flared with resplendent electric light. Then, he punched Uncle Wang, who was charging over with a ferocious aura, and sent him flying back.

After Uncle Wang crashed on the deck, he fainted. Blood flowed from his mouth continuously.

“Old Wang!”

Several Mo Clan cultivators picked up Uncle Wang, then glared at the Liu Clan First Elder in rage.

Liu Feng guffawed. “You startled me. However, in the end, you are trash. Scram!”

Still laughing, he took the lead in entering the warship’s hold. A malicious smile hung on his lips. Since they already shed all cordiality, then there was no need for him to hold back against this Mo Chen.

Liu Feng needed to obtain not only the Cyclic Meteor Iron but also the person. Weren’t you very aloof and proud, not even caring about the top ten experts of the Cloud Sea Domain? Let’s see how you are going to remain aloof today.

“Whoosh!”

The moment Liu Feng stepped into the hold, a hand suddenly stretched out from inside with lightning speed. Then, the hand clamped on his neck and raised him up into the air.

Before Liu Feng could understand what was going on, he began hyperventilating. Blood rushed to his head as he felt his entire body suffering from a lack of oxygen.

He clawed at that iron-like grip with both hands, his legs flailing in the air, but to no avail. That hand did not move at all, clamping down on his lifeline.

With one gentle squeeze, this hand could end Liu Feng’s life. Horror filled his entire body. He could not say a single word and could only helplessly flail his feet.

One breath earlier, he was still thinking of making use of this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. He was considering how to humiliate the famous top beauty of the Cloud Sea Domain one moment; then in the next, he was dangling in the air.

The sudden change in the situation did not give the four elders of the Liu Clan any time to react at all.

They simply had not expected that the Mo Clan would suddenly have an expert who could suppress Liu Feng in an instant.

With such strength, why did this person not make an appearance earlier? Could it be that he was waiting for this moment?

“Chi! Chi!”

Electric light flared on the Liu Clan grandmaster-level Martial Sage. Just as he was about to make a move to save Liu Feng…

“Go ahead, if you dare.”

Xiao Chen walked out slowly, holding Liu Feng suspended. Earlier, the shadows shrouded his face; now, he appeared before the four elders of the Liu Clan.

His dark words had not contained any emotion, assuring everyone that as long as the Liu Clan First Elder made any strange moves, Xiao Chen would mercilessly break Liu Feng’s neck.

Upon seeing Xiao Chen put in some more strength into the hand gripping Liu Feng’s neck, causing Liu Feng to grimace with more pain, the Liu Clan First Elder quickly scattered the electric light on his body. Then he said softly, “Keep your cool.”

Xiao Chen walked forward, casually holding up Liu Feng, and soon arrived at the warship’s bow. When he saw the Mo Clan cultivators lying on the deck, his expression turned sullen.

These people are heavy-handed.

Liu Clan cultivators leaped out from the four warships surrounding the Purple Cloud Warship. They held bows with the drawstrings pulled back, and the arrows all pointed at Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen’s cold gaze swept through them as he said indifferently, “I will only say this once: send all your warships away.”

Damn it!

The Liu Clan First Elder trembled with anger. He felt that Xiao Chen was only a Martial Monarch. Yet, Xiao Chen acted like he was the king here as he spoke.

However, the Liu Clan First Elder did not dare to disobey. Liu Feng’s fate was in the grasp of the other person. If Liu Feng died here, the Clan Head would no doubt be irate.

Originally, this was a sure-fire plan. However, no matter how the Liu Clan elders planned this, they could not have foreseen that such a demonic genius would appear on the Mo Clan’s Purple Cloud Warship.

“Move the warships,” the Liu Clan First Elder said through clenched teeth, his face filled with dissatisfaction.

The warships immediately turned around at full speed. After Xiao Chen appeared, the insufferably arrogant Liu Clan became obedient and capitulated promptly.

The Mo Clan cultivators on the deck were somewhat at a loss on how to react to this.

“First Elder!” the few Liu Clan elders said anxiously as they watched the warships draw away.

The Liu Clan First Elder waved his hand to stop them. Then, he looked at Xiao Chen and said sullenly, “Friend, are you satisfied now? Can you put down my clan’s Young Master first? We can discuss properly after that.

“As long as you let go of my clan’s Young Master, we will leave immediately. We will come to Starry Cloud Island personally to apologize.”

Xiao Chen smiled faintly like he believed the Liu Clan First Elder. Then, he casually flung Liu Feng aside to land heavily on the deck.

“Bang!” From the sound of it, Liu Feng probably fell very heavily.

“Die!”

The killing Qi that had accumulated in the Liu Clan First Elder’s eyes erupted at this moment. A pillar of electric light soared into the clouds as a pair of electric wings flared wide.

A strong wind blew and lightning tore across the sky. The instant Xiao Chen dropped Liu Feng, the old man charged over at lightning speed with a punch.

Xiao Chen seemed to have long anticipated this attack. In the time it took for a spark to fly, his right foot stomped heavily on Liu Feng’s chest.

“Ka ca! Ka ca!” Crunching resounded. Liu Feng let out a miserable shriek of pain.

“Hu!”

When the Liu Clan First Elder heard Liu Feng’s anguished shriek, he stopped his punch with its startling aura one meter away, not daring to make another move.

When the Liu Clan First Elder saw the obvious indent in Liu Feng’s chest, his face could not help but twitch slightly. This person was too ruthless.

If the Liu Clan First Elder had not stopped himself and Xiao Chen had used more force, Xiao Chen could have trampled Liu Feng to death.

“Do you really think that I’m an idiot? Cut the crap. I will naturally let this trash go when we get near Starry Cloud Island. The four of you, leave immediately. Scram!”
