Chapter 630: Vile Traitor

“That is natural . The Wan Clan’s wealth about rivals the nation’s . The ten great sects and eight Noble Clans do business with them . Now that the Wan Clan’s Young Master is getting married, they have to give them some face . ”

“I heard that the bride is a top-grade beauty . She is the person behind the Feng Yu Merchant Association . With this strong alliance, the Wan Clan will only get stronger in the future . ”

“Let’s stop talking and get in quick . The wedding is tomorrow . We have to go and take a look . ”

When Xiao Chen, Feng Tianming, and the others were not far from the city, they heard the discussions of the people around them .

Feng Tianming sighed and said, “At least we did not arrive late . If it had taken us one more day, it would really be too late to do anything . ”

Xiao Chen said calmly, “Let’s enter the city and find somewhere to sit first . During the wedding tomorrow, all we have to do is clarify things with the Wan Clan’s people . ”

After a while, the group paid the entry toll and successfully entered the city .

---

Even though night had fallen, Wan Clan City was still brightly lit and very bustling . Lanterns and banners festooned the city; jubilee filled the streets .

Xiao Chen closed his eyes and cultivated in his room at the inn . Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and his lips curled up . Smiling faintly, he said, “You finally revealed your tail . ”

Xiao Chen’s Spirit Sense caught one of Feng Tianming’s guards sneakily opening the door and checking for people .

Then, that guard quickly slipped out of the inn and made his way through the city .

Xiao Chen opened the window and followed using his Spiritual Sense . His eyes turned cold as a faint murderous intent appeared in their depths .

Aside from Xiao Chen and Feng Tianming, only the five guards knew about the plan to break through at the Black Smoke Mountain Range .

Although Feng Tianming did not doubt these guards who had followed him for many years, Xiao Chen did .

There could not have been such a coincidence, where the Imperial Dragon received ten shots from Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons just when its defenses were at its weakest .

There must have been an informant . When Xiao Chen released the scarlet throne, he had been observing the expressions of the five guards . He did not fail to notice the emotional fluctuations of this guard called Zhang Heng .

Indeed, the moment the group arrived in Wan Clan City, this Zhang Heng could not hold himself back .

This person was very cautious . It was like he felt someone was following him . He sent out his perception several times to check the area . He performed many feints, trying to lure his stalker out .

Unfortunately, Xiao Chen’s Spiritual Sense could track Zhang Heng from five kilometers away . With Zhang Heng’s perception, he would not be able to detect Xiao Chen .

When he failed to detect anyone despite several attempts, Zhang Heng felt that he was overthinking this . So he started to move at full speed .

After a while, Zhang Heng arrived at an isolated pavilion . Cultivators dressed in the Wan Clan’s uniform stood guard in front of it .

Zhang Heng handed over a token, and the guards immediately let him inside . Guards filled every corner of this pavilion . Clearly, this was an important place for the Wan Clan .

However, Xiao Chen had his Spiritual Sense; he did not need to enter the pavilion . He drifted down onto a roof and followed Zhang Heng, seeing the situation inside clearly .

Zhang Heng came to a room in the pavilion, and two people were already inside waiting . Xiao Chen recalled the appearance of one of them .

This person was the Martial God Palace’s welcoming envoy . The person standing beside him wore luxurious clothes and a decorative hat .

Like Wan Feng, that person was a handsome youth . However, that person also gave off a mundane feeling . Between the two, that person’s aura was much weaker .

When the two spoke, Xiao Chen found out who was that person . Wan Feng called him Wan Shan, the person marrying Feng Feixue .

When Wan Shan saw Zhang Heng, he was surprised . “The news I received was that you crashed near Black Smoke Mountain Range . How did you arrive in Wan Clan City so fast?”

Zhang Heng did not hide anything . He said, “Xiao Chen had a strange throne Secret Treasure . When it flew, it did not consume Spiritual Energy . Furthermore, it moved very fast . Without that throne, Feng Tianming would not have been able to arrive so quickly . ”

Wan Shan frowned slightly and said, “The King Grade True Dragon genius, the White Robed Bladesman Xiao Chen?”

Zhang Heng nodded and said, “That’s right . It is him . The Xiao Clan’s and the Feng Clan’s ancestors seem to have had some kind of marriage arrangement . So Feng Tianming brought him over . ”

“These ten thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones are for you as well as a Void Breaking Pill . Tell me where they are staying, and you may leave . ”

Wan Shan had not expected this matter to involve Xiao Chen . He felt a headache coming as he took out a spatial ring and tossed it to Zhang Heng, then waved him away .

When Zhang Heng received the benefits that he sought, he revealed an excited expression . He took his leave, feeling satisfied .

“Cousin, this Xiao Chen is not easy to deal with . Previously, Sima Lingxuan, who advanced to Martial Monarch, did not last even one move against him . I have no idea what the limits to his strength are . ”

[TL Note: Cousin, in this case, refers to an older male patrilineal cousin, or an older male cousin on the father’s side . ]

Wan Shan looked at Wan Feng at the side and added, “Furthermore, my grandfather says that it is not convenient to make a move against him . Xiao Chen has the Luck of the Sky Dome Realm . Even when Martial Sages attack him, there will be consequences . ”

Wan Feng smiled faintly and said, “How strong can a lower-realm Martial Monarch be? Rest assured . Just go enjoy your beauty, and leave this Xiao Chen to me . ”

Seeing that Wan Shan still seemed to be worried, Wan Feng added softly, “In terms of the Sky Dome Realm, that Zhang Heng from earlier is a peak Inferior Grade Martial Monarch . I am also an Inferior Grade Martial Monarch . However, I would not need even ten percent of my strength to defeat him . ”

He can defeat a peak Inferior Grade Martial Monarch with less than ten percent of his strength?

Wan Shan exclaimed, “Really?”

Wan Feng stopped smiling and said with a serious expression, “The Kunlun Realm is a big world that you cannot imagine . A Martial Monarch is nothing there .

“Don’t worry . If Xiao Chen wants to cause trouble, I will be the first person to object . You better move fast and quickly swallow up the Feng Clan . When I return, I have to take away a million Superior Grade Spirit Stones . There are too many people I have to pay off . ”

Wan Shan nodded and said, “No problem . With the wealth the Feng Clan accumulated over the past thousand years, they should definitely be capable of taking out a million Superior Grade Spirit Stones . ”

Standing on a roof, Xiao Chen withdrew his Spiritual Sense, revealing a contemplative gaze . It turned out that this Wan Clan had already decided to swallow up the Feng Clan .

The Wan Clan probably had some special method to send some collected resources to Wan Feng in the upper realm . Otherwise, he would not have been able to advance so fast .

Xiao Chen casually looked around and found Zhang Heng . He smiled faintly and collected his thoughts .

“Xiu!”

Xiao Chen gently leaped up . Then he silently landed before Zhang Heng, like a white-clothed spirit of the night under the full moon .

After obtaining ten thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones and a Void Breaking Pill for breaking through bottlenecks, Zhang Heng was in a happy mood .

When Xiao Chen appeared suddenly, Zhang Heng startled and shouted, “Young Master Xiao, why are you here?!”

Xiao Chen stared at Zhang Heng without saying a word . Hiding his killing intent, he silently placed his hand on his saber’s hilt .

Zhang Heng was feeling guilty . When Xiao Chen stared at him like that, he felt an overwhelming mental pressure that made him tremble .

A deadly silence spread throughout the place . Xiao Chen said calmly, “Shatter all your meridians yourself . Don’t force me to take action . ”

At this moment, Zhang Heng realized that Xiao Chen had discovered his actions . His initial feelings of having a tail were not a figment of his imagination .

A ruthless look flashed in Zhang Heng’s eyes as he suddenly attacked . His Quintessence surged out, and his fist tore through space as he sent a punch at Xiao Chen .

However, Zhang Heng’s move suddenly changed, and he fled backwards . The punch turned out to be just a feint to try and trick Xiao Chen, to create an opportunity to escape .

“Azure Dragon Tail Whip!”

However, while the plan seemed good, the reality was cruel . The fist wind only struck the afterimage Xiao Chen left behind . As for the real Xiao Chen, he moved in an arc and instantly drew his saber .

“Ka ca!”

A resplendent purple saber light lit up the dark night . Zhang Heng cried out painfully; his arm was already chopped off .

The explosive speed of the Azure Dragon Tail Whip was not something Zhang Heng could escape . When Xiao Chen attacked, Zhang Heng did not even have a chance to defend himself .

“Bang! Bang!”

Xiao Chen sheathed his saber and punched with his right hand . He shattered Zhang Heng’s dantian and delivered a blow to Zhang Heng’s nape, knocking him unconscious .

All these movements were completed in an instant, as fast as a spark flew . Zhang Heng did not feel any pain before he fainted .

Xiao Chen carried Zhang Heng on his back and returned to the inn . Then he tossed Zhang Heng into Feng Tianming’s room .

Seeing Zhang Heng’s body, Feng Tianming was astonished . He asked, “What’s the matter? Were you two attacked?”

Xiao Chen recounted everything he had seen in detail . Then he took out the ten thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones and the Void Breaking Pill from Zhang Heng’s spatial ring .

“You ingrate!”

With the evidence presented, Feng Tianming had no choice but to believe the facts at hand . He instantly felt enraged as he sent a palm strike towards Zhang Heng .

Xiao Chen stopped Feng Tianming, saying, “Keep him alive . He is still useful . This place is no longer safe . We have to move elsewhere . ”

With a quick thought, Feng Tianming understood . He called the remaining four guards to carry Zhang Heng, and they promptly left this inn .

Ten minutes after this group’s departure, the Wan Clan elders led a sizable army to this place .

However, they did not find any trace of Xiao Chen’s group . They could not help but be disappointed .

“We are too late . Continue to search . We cannot let them show up tomorrow,” the elder leading the army said .

Given a situation where no one knew anything, Wan Clan’s people could kill them . However, they could not take action against the bride’s father in front of everyone .

------

Early the next morning, before dawn, the entire Wan Clan City became bustling . The streets filled with many people .

“The Drifting Snow Sword Pavilion’s people are here . The tenth rank of the True Dragon Ranking, Liu Xiaoyun, came personally . ”

“Of the eight Noble Clans, Bai Qi and the scions of the Qian Clan and Wang Clan are here already . ”

“Sima Lingxuan has also shown up personally . ”

“The Supreme Sky Sect’s Yue Chenxi is also here!”

“Almost all the ten great sects and eight Noble Clans are here . The Wan Clan’s reputation is indeed great enough . ”

Many cultivators gathered on the second floor of an inn at areas near the windows . They looked at the crowd below, searching for famous people . Occasionally, there would be exclamations of surprise .

Xiao Chen was inside this inn, wearing a conical bamboo hat . He also felt surprised at the people passing by below . He had not expected the Wan Clan to have so much influence .

Nearly all the renowned sects and Noble Clans in the entire Great Jin Nation were here . Many of them even sent their heirs .

Feng Tianming, who also wore a bamboo hat, sighed and said, “Originally, with the Wan Clan’s reputation, they would not be worthy of the ten great sects and the eight Noble Clans coming personally . However, this time, the welcoming envoy is unexpectedly related to the Wan Clan . ”
