EBE Chapter 205 War Slaughter
Chapter 205 War Slaughter
"call out!"
The shout was followed by a sharp whooshing sound.
A figure flew in from outside the courtyard with extraordinary lightness skills at an extremely fast speed, landing on the only tree in the courtyard.
Everyone looked over, their expressions varying.
The person who arrived was none other than Xiao Chen.
"Xiao Chen?"
When it was confirmed that it was him, both the Xiao and Zhong families were stunned.
They tricked him into going to the Zhong family, thinking it would help him escape a calamity, but the Blood-Handed Butcher saw through their scheme, and both families thought Xiao Chen was in imminent danger.
He is now completely unharmed.
"Xiao Chen, are you really alright?" Xiao Jialin called out, looking up.
"Next time you want to do something, discuss it with me beforehand," Xiao Chen said unhappily.
Both families looked embarrassed.
Bloodhand Butcher's face was gloomy, and his brows were furrowed.
Xiao Chen's appearance was beyond his expectations.
He looked back but did not see the Third Elder of the Illuminati.
"Could something have happened? Did the Third Elder not go to the Zhong family?" Blood Hand Butcher certainly wouldn't speculate on that.
"Oh dear! Since you escaped this calamity, why did you come back to the Xiao family?!" Xiao Yuanshan slapped his thigh in anger.
The two families, having recovered from their initial surprise, were quite annoyed.
Isn't this just like a lamb being led to the slaughter?
"Where are the people who went to the Zhong family now?" Bloodhand Butcher asked, though he thought the possibility was very small.
"The Third Elder of the Illuminati, is it? Kill him." Xiao Chen said calmly.
Bloodhand Butcher's expression froze for a moment.
"What? The Third Elder of the Illuminati?" Both families were astonished.
That was the person who seriously injured Xiao Yuanshan back then!
He actually went to the Zhong family's house...
"Who killed him?" Bloodhand Butcher asked grimly as he continued to press for answers.
With the Third Elder's strength, practically no one in Jiang City could kill him.
He didn't quite believe it.
"I killed him." Xiao Chen's expression remained unchanged.
“Uh…” The Xiao and Zhong families were stunned.
Xiao Yuanshan and Grandpa Zhong were speechless.
How could Xiao Chen possibly kill the Third Elder of the Illuminati? That's an incredibly exaggerated claim.
Xiao Yuanshan had a deep understanding of the Third Elder's power. He had been injured for many years and had not been able to recover. If it weren't for Xiao Chen, he might not have lasted much longer before he was buried.
"Heh, you think you can?" Bloodhand Butcher was even less likely to believe it and sneered.
"Wait, what's the relationship between Bloodhand Butcher and the Illuminati?" Xiao Yuanshan suddenly realized and shouted.
“He was originally the Grand Elder of the Illuminati,” Xiao Chen said directly.
He deduced the identity of Bloodhand Butcher yesterday using intelligence from both the Underworld Palace and the Black Market organizations.
"What?!" Both families were shocked by the news.
Bloodhand Butcher's pupils contracted upon hearing this.
His identity is top secret.
Apart from the core high-ranking members of the Illuminati, no one in the martial arts world knew about it.
Where did this kid find out?
They must have learned from the Third Elder what exactly happened to the Zhong family.
"Bloody Butcher travels the martial world as a martial artist from the Xia Kingdom, often sparring with masters. He is ruthless, but in reality, he only deals with those who are not obedient to the Illuminati and are rather troublesome," Xiao Chen continued.
The other party's purpose is also very simple.
In the battles between warriors of the Xia Kingdom, death and injury are common occurrences, and the Martial Alliance and similar organizations do not intervene excessively.
But the Illuminati is an underground dark organization rejected by the higher-ups, doing too many shady things, and in the past it could only operate overseas.
If Bloodhand Butcher acted as the Grand Elder of the Illuminati, he would inevitably face condemnation from the martial arts world of Xia Kingdom, and be hunted down by top experts from the Martial Alliance.
"I'm curious, where did you get this information from?" Bloodhand Butcher clapped his hands, then his face turned cold and filled with murderous intent.
"Where exactly is the Third Elder?" he demanded.
"You'll see him in a little while," Xiao Chen said with a slight smile.
"You have greatly displeased me." Bloodhand Butcher said with a gloomy face, his patience wearing thin.
"boom!"
His extremely oppressive aura erupted once again, his momentum fierce.
The only tree in the courtyard swayed back and forth under its presence, causing Xiao Chen to sway from side to side as well.
This time, Bloodhand Butcher's murderous aura was even stronger.
"Danger! Xiao Chen, run!" Xiao Yuanshan shouted, determined to stop the other party even at the cost of his old bones.
"roll!"
Bloodhand Butcher shouted, his aura emanating from his body.
Xiao Yuanshan was shaken away.
"Crack!"
The tree beneath Xiao Chen's feet snapped in two, but he didn't fall. Instead, he stepped into the void and walked down step by step.
This scene shocked everyone in the courtyard.
Even Xiao Yuanshan was blasted away by that force, but Xiao Chen was completely unaffected.
Bloodhand Butcher narrowed his eyes, finally realizing that Xiao Chen was no ordinary person.
"This kid... actually has the strength of a second-level King!" His face didn't change much, but he was already greatly shocked.
King-level, second tier. Even the most outstanding geniuses of the Xia Kingdom are probably no match for this.
"You are worthy of my personal attention," Bloodhand Butcher said in a deep voice, leaping into the air and striking Xiao Chen with his palm once more.
This palm strike was far stronger than the combined strike used against Xiao Yuanshan and Old Master Zhong.
Xiao Chen leaned down slightly and struck out with a palm from above.
"No..." Xiao Yuanshan was extremely anxious, but there was no time to shout.
How could he possibly withstand such terrifying palm force head-on? He should have dodged it.
In the blink of an eye, their palm strikes clashed from a distance.
"Boom..."
Like meteorites colliding, a huge shockwave was generated in an instant, spreading outwards.
Everyone in the courtyard was affected by the shockwave and couldn't help but retreat. The paving stones in the central circular area flew up like waves, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard were in a mess, extremely chaotic.
Xiao Yuanshan and Old Master Zhong were shaken and their faces showed shock.
What level of competition is this?
The sheer amount of ripples that spread out is astonishing, even dangerous.
Xiao Chen can actually fight against a third-level King!
They looked toward the center, eager to know the outcome.
As before, Xiao Chen and Blood Hand Butcher competed in internal energy from a distance.
Anyone who is inferior will suffer the same fate as them.
They first looked at Xiao Chen and found him expressionless, which amazed them.
Looking at the Bloodhand Butcher again, the floor tiles beneath his feet had turned to dust, his face was twitching, and his face was ashen.
It seems...were at a disadvantage?
"No way..." The two of them suddenly became excited, and a thought grew stronger and stronger.
"Om..."
Xiao Chen's palm swayed slightly, triggering a chain reaction. The force of his palm surged forth, crashing down onto the ground like a giant wave.
The ground where the Xiao family lived trembled twice, the shock was very strong.
A cloud of dust instantly rose up, obscuring the area where the two were fighting.
Everyone craned their necks to see.
Hold your breath and wait quietly...
As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, someone's mouth gaped open.
A large crater appeared there.
And the Bloodthirsty Butcher lay motionless in that pit...
