Chapter 317: Failed Negotiations
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
With that, An Sushan walked toward Ye Chen and said, “Little Brother, I’m An Sushan from Hui’an Province. Since my daughter and your friend have pleaded your case, I promise you that as long as you give me the treasure, I will escort you out of Hui’an Province safely!”
Although he was dignified, the fiery desire in his eyes betrayed him!
Every ancient martial arts practitioner would covet this treasure!
Ye Chen, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, glanced at An Sushan, and then at the embarrassed Zhu Ya and An Ruoying. He shook his head and said calmly, “On account of my friend, if you leave now, I can guarantee your safety.”
An Sushan was not the only one stunned. Everyone else was as well. Some even pinched their cheeks to see if they were dreaming.
This kid was already in a situation where he was going to die, yet he was actually indirectly threatening An Sushan?
The An family was a major martial arts family in Hui’an Province!
Had he gone bonkers?
“Haha, Old An, it seems that he doesn’t appreciate your offer,” a man in a Daoist robe laughed. He looked at Ye Chen and said, “Brat, it seems like you still don’t understand your situation. You’re alone, and we have representatives of the eight major families and the twenty-one forces of Hui’an Province here.”
“Also, Huaxia’s Martial Arts Department is here too.”
The old man in a long robe stood out.
When the man in the Daoist robe heard the words, “Huaxia’s Martial Arts Department,” his expression turned ugly. These guys were also involved?
Was this treasure going to be confiscated by Huaxia?
Countless gazes that were filled with hostility turned toward the old man.
The long-robed old man naturally realized what they were thinking and said indifferently, “Don’t worry, everyone. We’re here for this kid’s life. He has killed many of our people, and is guilty of heinous crimes! Had it not been for someone from Jiangnan Province protecting him, he would have died long ago!”
Hearing this, the various experts present could not help but gasp!
There was actually someone who dared to kill people from Huaxia’s Martial Arts Department?
Was he crazy?
All of a sudden, the expressions of the experts from Hui’an Province changed when they looked at Ye Chen.
In the distance, An Ruoying and Zhu Ya felt a chill run down their spines.
An Ruoying grabbed Zhu Ya’s hand tightly. Her palms were covered in sweat as she said, “It’s over. It’s really over this time. Mr. Ye has offended everyone here, and now even the Martial Arts Department is getting involved. 1 don’t think he will be able to leave Thousand Peaks Mountain alive today.”
“If he refuses to hand over that thing, he’s doomed! Little Ya, you really should go and persuade him, or else he…”
Her heart was burning with anxiety. After all, Ye Chen had saved her when they were on the mountain stairway just now, so she did not want anything to happen to him.
Zhu Ya clenched her fists and looked at Ye Chen without saying a word.
She knew Ye Chen well and knew how he did things. Since he refused to hand over that thing, he must have his reasons.
At this moment, she could only choose to believe in him.
An Sushan’s face was livid with anger as he said, “In that case, I take back my words! 1 want to see how you’re going to survive to see tomorrow!”
“Everyone, this kid has nothing to do with my An family. There is only one treasure, so I’ll be upfront here. Whoever comes into contact with that treasure first will own it. This will avoid straining the relationship between our factions.”
Everyone cheered when they heard this!
An Sushan had a lot of influence in Hui’an Province, so no one would refute his words, especially since they were reasonable. Now, it all depended on their own abilities as to whether they could get the treasure.
“Since that’s the case, we’ll be the first ones to strike!”
Two figures instantly leapt out from the crowd and dashed toward Ye Chen. These were experts from the Li family, and they had launched a sneak attack without hesitation.
How shameless!
Even the experts present felt that they had gone overboard.
Ye Chen looked at the two figures calmly. It seemed that if he wanted to leave with the treasure today, he had to deal with these people…
Kill!
One of the Li family’s experts sneered as they approached him, “Brat, draw your weapon so that others won’t say we’re bullying you.”
Ye Chen took a step forward and faced the two of them.
“You two are not qualified to make me draw my weapon!”
As he spoke, he turned his body and dodged one of their attacks. At the same time, he threw a true qi-infused punch at the other person’s leg. Although this punch was not imbued with the power of the blood dragon, it still contained immense power.
Bang!
“How is this possible?”
The expression of the Li family expert who had kicked Ye Chen froze, and his expression immediately twisted and contorted in pain.
It felt as if his right leg was being torn apart!
“Die!”
Moments later, Ye Chen’s fist slammed into his body before he could recover.
Kacha!
Everyone heard the sounds of bones shattering, as well a heart-wrenching scream.
“Argh!”
That person was sent flying and crashed heavily onto the ground, forever dead to the world.
The remaining expert was stunned by this, but before he could react, Ye Chen appeared in front of him, a hand infused with true qi grabbed his weapon and swung it fiercely…
Rip!
The man’s head fell to the ground, and his blood stained the ground.
After doing this, Ye Chen took a step forward and swept his cold gaze across the crowd.
“Whoever dares to take a step forward will end up just like them!”
