Unrivaled Martial Emperor Chapter 166 -Attacked by Strong Foes

Chapter 166 – Attacked by Strong Foes

“Hmm? Isn’t that Chen Qingqing? Third level? She’s so strong now!”

“I heard the battle between the Chen Clan and the Tan and Liu clans started because the Tan Clan’s third young master, Tan Yunbao, tried to publicly abduct Chen Qingqing. Chen Fan had just returned and saw it; he crippled Tan Yunbao’s limbs and cultivation.”

“That is indeed how it went! Surprisingly, the clash between the clans stemmed from an incident involving a Chen Clan branch member!”

“In a short span, Chen Qingqing’s cultivation had skyrocketed from the first to the third level. Rumor had it Chen Hai severely injured her, but it doesn’t seem like the case now.”

“The Chen Clan’s younger generation are all so strong. Five of them are at the sixth level!”

“No surprise there. With centuries of accumulated wealth from the two clans, the Chen Clan is rapidly developing. Their younger generation improving drastically is only natural.”

“……”

The nearby crowd gossiped as they watched the intense clashes in the ten fighting arenas.

Chen Clan had harvested the two clans’ wealth and taken over their businesses, so their strength and foundation were deepening by the day, producing experts endlessly. The Chen Clan was bound to grow stronger in the future.

Some formidable rogue cultivators contemplated joining the Chen Clan as their private troops, considering the wealth and opportunities they offered.

After the battle, it became common knowledge in Xuanyang City that the Chen Clan didn’t treat their troops poorly.

They had generously rewarded their troops with Qi Gathering Pills, primeval stones, and spiritual herbs. Consequently, even individuals with different surnames in the clan had recently experienced a significant surge in strength.

In the past, one could be a captain in the Chen Clan with fifth-level cultivation. However, they needed a sixth-level cultivation now—a direct proof of the Chen Clan’s explosive rise in strength.

Chen Fan’s gaze swept across the ten fighting arenas occasionally, sizing up the clan’s younger generation and memorizing the names of quite a few people.

He intended to prioritize nurturing these individuals, shaping them into the future force of the Chen Clan.

……

“Say, where’s Chen Clan located?” demanded the elder with a goatee as he entered Xuanyang City with a group of followers. He grabbed the air, but a middle-aged man was pulled before him.

Terrified, the middle-aged man stammered, “I-it’s… southeast… from here.”

“Useless!”

The elder slapped the middle-aged man, reducing him to a pulp. He then directed his Golden Horned Horse toward the southeast, resulting in chaos and screams in Xuanyang City as they galloped through the streets.

Some people who couldn’t dodge in time were trampled to death.

“Damn it, how bold of these people. They dare speed through the stree—” Someone complained, but before they could finish their sentence, a streak of primeval qi shot through his brow.

The onlookers along the street fell silent, fear evident in their widened eyes.

Only when these people were gone far away did they begin gossiping.

“Who are these people?”

“They’re too arrogant. These people are too arrogant!”

“They… seem to be looking for the Chen Clan.”

“Are they clansmen of the Tan and Liu clans who were outside? That’s not right. They look unfamiliar, definitely not from the two clans. Moreover, that elder with the goatee at the front seems menacing.”

“Go, go to the Chen Clan. These people harbor ill intentions. They might be from a prestigious clan in a Grade-2 city, possibly here to seize the estates of the two clans!”

“Today… I seem to recall it’s the Chen Clan’s clan meet. It should be very lively over there now.”

“……”

Suddenly, a multitude of people sprinted toward the Chen Clan. The goatee elder’s group raced through the streets at a breakneck pace, indifferent to their surroundings.

After about a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the street in front of the Chen Clan mansion and saw the bustling scene on the square from afar.

“Third Elder, the Chen Clan’s mansion should be just ahead. I heard they have organized a meet today. Judging by the commotion in the square, it should be right!” remarked a middle-aged man with a square face, gazing ahead with a cold expression.

“Clan meet?” The goatee elder’s eyes gleamed coldly. A sinister smile crept up at the corner of his lips as he declared, “If that’s the case, I’ll present the Chen Clan with a gift!”

The goatee elder raised his hand and unleashed a punch.

Rumble!

A formidable force shot out like a cannonball, causing the air to explode. The booming sound echoed continuously, shaking the people on the streets to the core, forcing them to cough up blood as their organs trembled.

The expressions of onlookers in the square immediately shifted as the thunderous booms reverberated through the air. Heads turned in alarm as people frantically dodged to the sides.

Unfortunately, some were too slow and were instantly reduced to mists of blood by the sheer might of the terrifying punch.

“Hmm?”

Chen Fan also sensed the danger. He swiftly surveyed the scene, spotting the rapidly approaching punch; it seemed like a blink away.

“Looking to die!”

Chen Fan’s expression turned icy cold, and he flitted over with a swish.

Undefeated King’s Fist erupted and collided with the oncoming punch. An explosive clash ensued, winds whipping in all directions and forceful qi surging outward.

Whoosh!

That terrifying force pushed Chen Fan back. His icy gaze fixated on the approaching group, particularly the goatee elder leading them. A profound sense of pressure gripped his heart.

He roared out loud, “Chen Clan’s people, on guard! Enemies incoming!”

The Chen Clan members in the square swiftly took a defensive stance, exuding a palpable aura of hostility.

“Who are you people?” Chen Fan shouted.

Those who had come bore no goodwill, and those with good never came. DissCover 𝒖pdated novels on n(o)v/e/lbin(.)co𝒎

The attackers bore ill intentions, evident from their preemptive strike.

Chen Fan had to use seventy percent of his strength just to withstand the earlier punch, underscoring the formidable power of the assailant.

“You’re Chen Fan?” asked the goatee elder coldly, his indifferent gaze landing on Chen Fan. He was also a little surprised.

Given his strength, his casual punch could have killed a Qi Grandmaster even from a thousand paces away. Yet, Chen Fan had not only stopped it but emerged unscathed.

Chen Fan’s pupils shrunk. “Who exactly are you people? What matters do you have with Chen Fan?”

This group was powerful. The goatee elder and the middle-aged man beside him were in the Yuanfu realm. Behind them, three Qi Grandmasters and five eighth-level martial artists formed a formidable lineup.

With such strength, they could stand firmly even in a Grade-2 city and develop a martial clan.

Chen Fan wondered if these people were from the Tan and Liu clans.

“Who are we?”

The square-faced middle-aged man laughed coldly. A portrait appeared in his hand, depicting none other than Chen Fan himself. His killing intent surged as he said, “So, you’re Chen Fan. Very good. Looks like we found the right place!”

“You dare kill our Lin Clan’s Young Patriarch. Today, we will destroy your Chen Clan. Your clansmen will pay with their lives for the actions of their Patriarch, accompanying the Young Patriarch in death!

Lin Clan?

A flash of electricity suddenly ran through his mind. He was reminded of the person he had killed outside Qingyang County City, Lin Ba. [1]
