deuteragonist.org Fantasy novel. King Sword Sovereign Chapter 120: The Journey to Annihilate Wind Fire Fang.
Yu Chen and Zhao Hu specifically choose narrow paths to avoid crowds. The majestic Qinglin Horse and Zhao Hu's imposing figure never fail to astonish those they encounter along the way.
This undoubtedly exposes the whereabouts of the two.
Therefore, Yu Chen occasionally scans the surroundings within a radius of one mile using spiritual power, trying his best to avoid attracting attention.
Half an hour later, the two entered a street called "Yahang" located in the southwest of the city.
Beyond this street is the slum area, with rows of dilapidated houses, crumbling tiles, and patches of moss. Most of the pedestrians on the road have a sallow complexion, emaciated bodies, and ragged clothes patched with holes, resembling walking corpses. Their eyes are devoid of color, filled only with despair towards life.
It's as if everyone is shrouded in a haze.
Just a street away, there are people from wealthy backgrounds indulging in drinking and feasting. After they are full and satiated, they throw their leftovers into the impoverished area. The starving people there scramble for the scraps like wolves while those wealthy individuals laugh uncontrollably, seemingly finding it amusing.
Just a street away, it's like heaven and hell, as they say, the rich revel in luxury while the poor struggle to survive. It's nothing new.
However, what's even more terrifying is a street where tooth vendors ply their trade, dealing in the sale of slaves. It's far from being a paradise, but rather a hellish existence!
Where do these slaves come from?
Most of them are directly captured from the slums!
Yu Chen and Zhao Hu looked around as they went, and on both sides of the market, there were iron cages filled with iron spikes to prevent slaves from escaping.
Inside, there are men, women, and children, each clearly priced as if they were goods. Some are even chained like dogs and paraded on the streets for sale.
Among them, more than half are children!
Using hemp rope to make a whip, occasionally lashing it on those children, causing some disobedient ones to cough up blood, and lashing until they lose their breath... Translation: Several children among them, are subjected to the whip made of hemp rope, occasionally lashed until some unruly ones cough up blood and lose consciousness...
Slaves being whipped can be seen everywhere on the road. Many women are barely clothed, with lifeless eyes and filled with despair. They have lost the will to die because the moment they become slaves, their lives no longer belong to themselves.
Both Yu Chen and Zhao Hu remained silent and heavy-hearted, feeling as if a huge boulder was pressing down on them, making it difficult for them to breathe. Although this place seemed glamorous, it was actually bloody and filthy, like a purgatory.
These traffickers are so cruel, enslaving their own kind!
Beyond the Eastern Wilderness, foreign races are lurking, harboring ill intentions towards our human race. Yet within our own ranks, we treat our fellow brethren with such brutality.
These kidnappers with bad intentions deserve to die!
Yu Chen gritted his teeth, filled with anger. Just the town of Fengyu alone is like this, it's hard to imagine how many people in the entire Wuwang Dynasty have suffered unfortunate fates!
Why didn't the Wu dynasty ban these dirty trades?
Because the dynasty was corrupt!
Yu Chen knew that, with his current abilities, he couldn't change anything and could only suppress the anger in his heart.
Not long after, Yu Chen soon found the destination. It was here where he and Zi Shu were bought by the Jackal Gang years ago, although they were unaware of each other's presence.
He learned this information from Zhao Hu.
Yu Chen refuses to return to Wangcheng with Ling Yao because he wants to investigate the process of being sold many years ago.
"Fenghuo Ya Xing, isn't this Black Mamba Ya Xing?"
Zhao Hu stared at the door plaque in astonishment.
From the Wind and Fire Fang Store, there walked out a middle-aged man with an austere expression and dressed as a shopkeeper. Upon hearing the words, he mumbled, "Another one inquiring about the Black Python Fang Store." Translated:
虞宸听觉敏锐,“你说什么?”
“没什么,黑蟒牙行早就没了,三年前就被人灭了。”
“什么?”赵虎错愕道。
虞宸眉宇蹙起,上前问道:“谁干的?”
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Do you buy slaves?"
"No, I don't!"
"If you're not buying, then why bother asking!" The middle-aged man's face changed, and he sneered.
Zhao Hu stepped forward, his voice roaring like a tiger in the mountains, "Speak!"
Zhao Hu's face resembles a tiger's, and his amber-colored pupils give off an imposing aura.
Unbeknownst to the middle-aged man, he subconsciously took a step back, but quickly stood his ground, feeling embarrassed for being scared away. With an aggressive tone, he exclaimed, "Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you intimidate me? Do you think the Wind and Fire Tooth gang is a place where you can act recklessly?"
After Zhao Hu awakened his constitution and bloodline, his temper became as fierce as a tiger, making him the most loyal enforcer under Yu Chen's command.
He immediately stepped forward, his large hands resembling sand bowls, about to capture the middle-aged man.
“还敢动手?不知死活,正好,像你这么大块头的奴隶,一定能卖出好价钱!”中年男子目中闪烁着阴冷的笑容。
一股武丹境八重的气息从此人身上爆发出来,惊得街上众多武者侧目,一阵阵惊呼声传来。
"Isn't that the boss of Fenghuoyaxing (Fire Tooth Trading)? How did these two people end up fighting with him?"
"Hehe, these two individuals have some nerve. They probably haven't considered the background of Fenghuoyaxing. It's not something they can afford to provoke."
......
The middle-aged man had a sinister complexion, and his hand moved swiftly with a motion resembling an eagle's claw grabbing its prey. His five fingers slightly curved, resembling sharp eagle claws, and his true qi transformed into five dagger-like claw blades, incredibly sharp and eerie, tearing through the wind and splitting the air!
However, Zhao Hu disregarded it and his true energy covered his arms, shimmering like golden metal, emanating a fierce and menacing aura all over his body. In an instant, he suppressed the aura on the middle-aged man and contained it within his own body.
In the next moment, the sound of clanging steel echoed, and the five strands of true energy claws were directly shattered by a palm strike!
"How is this possible?"
The middle-aged man's face changed dramatically. Obviously, Zhao Hu's cultivation level was one realm lower than his, but he appeared to be as brave and unparalleled as a colorful giant tiger, seemingly unfazed by his true energy claw attack. It was simply unbelievable!
Click!
Zhao Hu's strong and muscular hand instantly clasped around the middle-aged man's neck, lifting him up as if he were holding a duck.
He angrily shouted, "If you don't speak, you'll die!"
The middle-aged man's throat was being constricted, his face turning red like a pig's liver. In his gaze, those martial artists who were watching seemed to be whispering and mocking, filling his heart with anger and resentment.
"You're looking for death!"
"Smack!"
Zhao Hu's face turned angry, and he raised his hand and slapped the middle-aged man, making his eyes see stars as his teeth mixed with blood and were thrown to the ground.
"You... How dare you hit me!"
The middle-aged man was stunned after being hit, but then he quickly became furious and shouted hysterically, "You damn bastard! Let me tell you, I am Feng Yue from the Feng family! The Stormfire Tooth is a Feng family business! If you dare to cause trouble here, you all are fed up with living!"
“Feng Family!” Yu Chen's mouth curled with a cold smirk, saying, “We're going to attack the Feng Family!”
“Zhao Hu, destroy this place for me! As for this person, leave him with a breath, I have some questions for him!”
"Yes!"
As the words fell, Zhao Hu struck Wind Yue's lower abdomen with a palm strike, completely crippling his cultivation. In rapid succession, Zhao Hu then delivered powerful blows to break each of Wind Yue's limbs before finally throwing him in front of Yu Chen like garbage.
赵虎转身进入风火牙行,瞬息之间,里面响起一阵喊打喊杀之声,紧接着便是一阵阵惨烈哭嚎和令人头皮发麻的刀剑撕裂血肉之声。
Yu Chen lifted the Wind Axe that had fainted, took big strides into the hall. The martial artists who gathered at the door were squeezing, exclaiming in awe and reveling in schadenfreude. Some were competitors of the Wind and Fire Tooth Gang, while others had grudges against the Wind family.
Fenghuo Dentistry has caused great harm to people, offending numerous individuals. It is unknown how many people have been devastated by them. However, the Feng family acts tyrannically, leaving others no room to voice their grievances. In their hearts, they wish for the downfall of Fenghuo Dentistry. When they see someone so courageous, doing what they wish they could do but dare not, they can't help but applaud and cheer!
Inside the hall lay scattered warriors in various positions, their blood flowing like a river. These warriors were hired by the Feng family and had accumulated countless grievances, deserving their untimely deaths.
Yu Chen leisurely strolled through the midst of the corpses and arrived at the back courtyard of the hall. There, the scene was even more gruesome, with an overwhelming stench of blood in the air. Zhao Huo was still locked in a fierce battle with the last opponent, their clash causing their true energy to explode. The resulting shockwaves resembled swirling tornadoes, stirring up clouds of dust and sand.
Yu Chen glanced over and unexpectedly found that there was a highly skilled warrior hidden among the dental practitioners, at the ninth level of the Martial Pill Realm. However, this person was no match for Zhao Hu.
Judging from the situation, it seemed that he wouldn't be able to hold on much longer under Zhao Hu's attacks. He was already screaming in pain and constantly spitting out blood.
"Who are you? There's no place for you in Fengyu City, as an enemy of the Feng family!"
"Stop it!"
"Splop!..."
Zhao Hu remained silent, resembling an enraged giant. In just a few moments, he brutally punched this person, causing him to explode in a horrifying scream, his blood staining his whole body.
Zhao Hu is extremely angry. Although he was once a member of a gang and also forced slaves, everything he witnessed in the tooth shop far exceeded his imagination.
At least the gang had rules and would never bully children, while the people in the tooth shop were simply worse than animals, extinguishing humanity and even not sparing young girls. The fate of those girls who were not sold was extremely tragic.
At this moment, Feng Yue has already woken up and is shocked to the point where he can't breathe. His gaze becomes dull, and he forgets about the pain on his body, unable to let out a scream.
It's only when Yu Chen throws him to the ground that Feng Yue lets out a horrific scream, like that of a slaughtered pig. However, he can't move at all. His limbs are crippled, his cultivation is destroyed, and he lies on the ground like a dead dog, completely limp.
In the next moment, the tip of the sword was pressing against Feng Yue's forehead, while the other end of the sword was held in Yu Chen's hand. Feng Yue instantly felt as if he was being stared at by the Grim Reaper, his mouth tightly closed. The excruciating pain that tore at his heart and lungs caused his face to turn pale, with sweat trickling down like mung beans. He wanted to scream but didn't dare, only his trembling lips expressed his fear.
"I ask, you answer, got it?"
"Got it, got it, got it!"
Feng Yue nodded frantically, the fear of death made him fully realize the reality, these two individuals are the death omens, they are not afraid of the Feng family at all.
“Three years ago, the Black Python Tooth Shop was destroyed. Who was responsible for it?”
Feng Yue gritted his teeth and endured the pain as he said, "I don't know. The Black Python Tooth Shop used to be the largest dental market on this street, but it was suddenly wiped out overnight by a group of mysterious people. It had nothing to do with our Feng family. We only occupied this place later."
Yu Chen has always observed using soul power, and Feng Yue should not have lied.
"Was there anything left at that time? Such as account books, details of slave buying and selling?"
"There was nothing left, the entire Black Python Fang Store was burned to ruins by a fire."
"Did you just say that someone else inquired about the Black Mamba Fang Shop?"
"Yes..." Feng Yue dared not hide the truth, "Just a few days ago, a person covered in black clothes came, also wearing a mask. But as soon as he learned that the Black Mamba Fang Shop had been destroyed, he left."
"Black clothes? Mask?" Yu Chen pondered, "Could it be the Blood Fiend Sect?"
Why is the Blood Fiend Sect investigating me?
Yu Chen asked a few more questions but received no useful information, so he swiftly eliminated Feng Yue with a single strike.
Feng Yue's eyes bulged in anger, unable to believe that speaking the truth would still bring death. His face was filled with unwillingness.
