Chapter 483  Treatment for malice

"Junior sister, have you noticed? Zhan Chen has probably reached the Sword heart realm", Yang Yukong sent a voice transmission to Shui Liying. His hand trembled slightly as he looked towards Zhan Chen with disbelief in his eyes.

Other experts couldn't see through Zhan Chen's strength in this short span. But Yang Yukong was an exception. He himself had already reached the Sword heart realm. So, he was extremely sensitive towards another cultivator who had reached the Sword heart realm.

"I know already. There is no limit to his future perspective", Shui Liying replied. A proud expression appeared on her face as she looked towards Zhan Chen.

"Everyone, now that the duel is concluded, I am announcing Zhan Chen as the fourth commander. From here on, if anyone dare to cause trouble, he will be dealt with strictly", Ying Chao spoke.

"I have another announcement to make before we disperse. I will not assign any troops to any commander. Everyone has to choose for themselves which commander they want to follow. Hopefully, commanders can gather their own troops before tomorrow morning", Ying Chao spoke. He bowed slightly towards Yang Yukong and Shui Liying before flying towards the Grey ash city.

"It is the right decision to have him lead our troops", Yang Yukong commented as he looked towards the distant figure of Ying Chao.

"Indeed, he already has a clear idea about how to lead our troops", Shui Liying nodded her head. Both of them vanished from their location after Ying Chao left. The calm atmosphere immediately became noisy after the emperors left. Countless gazes fell upon the four commanders who were about to build their own army.

"Elder Jiang, my Golden serpent sect is willing to assist you in the upcoming battles. Hopefully, you will let us join your army", a stout old man spoke. His voice was thunderous as it immediately drowned other voices around him.

"Let us discuss this inside the city. Everyone who is willing to follow me, please come to the western section of the city", Zhi Jiang spoke. He cupped his hands towards everyone before flying away. A section of the crowd immediately followed after him as they were willing to join his army.

"Everyone, who is willing to follow me, please come to the eastern section of the city. I promise, I will not let you down after you join my army", first commander, Li Wei spoke. He cupped his hands towards everyone before flying towards the Grey ash city.

"Everyone, let us meet at the southern section of the city. I can't promise anything but I will not mistreat anyone who is willing to follow my lead. Those who are willing to fight for our Earth province, please follow me into the city", Hui Guo spoke. He didn't bother to greet anyone after announcing his words. He straightaway flew towards the southern end of the Grey ash city.

Three commanders left one by one, leaving Zhan Chen behind. Everyone was expecting him to speak some words but Zhan Chen was busy looking at the Wu clan experts. Wu Yong's expression was cold as he stared back towards Zhan Chen. He felt Zhan Chen was provoking him directly by staring at him in such a blatant manner.

"Senior Yong, you are looking really fierce today. Hopefully, you can maintain the same spirit in the upcoming battles", Zhan Chen spoke with a smile on his face. But everyone present could see that it was a blatant provocation towards Wu Yong.

"Commander Chen don't have to worry about me. Rather you should focus on yourself. Who knows, what will happen in the upcoming battles", Wu Yong replied. He appeared calm on the surface but he was struggling to suppress his murderous thoughts.

"Seniors, please choose who you wish to follow wisely. You have maby battle to fight going forward. Those who wish to follow me can come to the place of Lu clan", Zhan Chen spoke. He cupped his hands towards everyone present before flying towards the Grey ash city.

"This bastard, who does he think he is?", an elder of the Wu clan spat out. Wu Yong was a respected senior of his clan. So, disrespecting him meant disrespect to the entire Wu clan.

"Don't worry about him. He does not have many days to live anyway. We can take this as his deathbed rambling", Wu Yong spoke. A sinister smile appeared on his face as he looked towards the direction where Zhan Chen had gone.

"Grand elder, which commander should we follow?", another elder asked. He was rather concerned because the crowd of cultivators were thinning out at a rapid pace. Many of the cultivators had already taken a decision regarding which commander they should follow.

"There is no hurry. Go back to our base first. I have to send a voice transmission to the patriarch", Wu Yong spoke. The last line, he spoke was through mental communication. So, none of the experts present nearby could doubt Wu clan's motive.

Wu clan experts flew towards the Grey ash city together. No one noticed when Wu Yong secretly left before reaching the Grey ash city. Everyone was busy in selecting their respective commander. So, no one had time to monitor Wu clan experts' activities.

Wu Yong flew for a while after leaving the periphery of the Grey ash city. He stopped when he reached an extremely secluded location. He spread out his soul consciousness cautiously and checked the surrounding. Only after ensuring that no one was noticing him, he took out a tailsman from his spatial ring.

He spread out his soul consciousness once more and checked the surrounding. He was way too cautious despite coming to a secluded location. He couldn't be blamed though because the communication tailsman were not completely immune to spying.

Peak experts like the emperors and the sages could see through the information being fed to the tailsman through their formidable spiritual strength. So, Wu Yong acted cautiously despite coming to a secluded location.

He injected his essence energy and the communication tailsman lit up with a glowing light. "Patriarch, we need to inform the holy son. The bastard of the Zhan clan is growing powerful too quickly. His cultivation base aside his battle prowess is already at a heaven defying level. I can confirm that he is at early Martial ascension realm. But he can already defend against me with his puny cultivation realm", Wu Yong fed the glowing tailsman with information.

The tailsman started to burn after few moments. It completely disappeared when he finished injecting his last words. A devious smile appeared on Wu Yong's face after he sent the information. His eyes glowed with glee when he thought about Zhan Chen's upcoming fate.

"Brat, just you wait. Holy son will send white envoys to catch you. I will make sure that you will suffer measurably like your clansmen and your Zhan clan allies", Wi Yong thought to himself.

"Someone is going to suffer. But it is not me", a calm voice disturbed the eeerie silence of the night. Wu Yong's expression changed completely after he heard the voice.

"Who is there?", he shouted cautiously. Sweat drops appeared on his forehead as he scanned the surrounding with his soul consciousness.

"Senior Yong, are you looking for me?", Zhan Chen walked towards Wu Yong from a distance. He had a cold expression on his face as he stared towards Wu Yong.

"Bastard, you dare follow me! I will make sure that you will not escape this place alive", Wu Yong clenched his fists. He couldn't believe that he got scared so much by the voice of Zhan Chen.

"Wishful thinking. Your fate is sealed at the moment you expose your murderous intention towards me", Zhan Chen spoke. He walked forward with unhurried steps. Wu Yong felt a primordial fear rising in his heart when he faced Zhan Chen's cold gaze.

He wanted to attack Zhan Chen but to his utter disbelief, he couldn't move a single finger infront of Zhan Chen. Zhan Chen appeared like a prehistoric beast whose gaze was firmly locked on his prey.

"How can this be?", Wu Yong felt the world was collapsing around him. He had never felt so helpless in his entire life.

"You old thing. You dare insult me so many times?", Zhan Chen asked coldly. His gaze was penetrating as he looked towards Wu Yong.

"I am sorry", the word which escaped Wu Yong's lips was surprising for both Zhan Chen and Wu Yong himself. He couldn't believe that he could utter such words out of desperation.

"Being sorry is not enough. Let me teach you what the suffering actually is", Zhan Chen spoke. He grabbed Wu Yong's hand and applied pressure on his fingers.

"Crack"

"Crack"

"Ahhh", Wu Yong howled measerably as all five of his fingers were broke. Tear and snot came out from his eyes and nose as he howled measerably.

In response, another five cracking sounds came out. Zhan Chen broke the fingers of his other hand. Wu Yong howled hoarsely as the pain came out from the depth of his soul.
