Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 450: Chapter 449 [Not a Single Joint]

[Seeking monthly passes, rewards, and likes, brothers do whatever you can, thank you!]

Four assassins clad in black, all skilled masters who infiltrated Capital City under the Beichen Sword Style this time, possessed formidable martial capabilities, far beyond any ordinary security and bodyguards as Chief No. 1 had informed Ye Tianchen. It seemed the Beichen Sword Style had dispatched an abundance of strong experts determined to kill Ye Tianchen.

Ye Yuanshan glanced at the group of Ye family descendants behind him. Though he felt somewhat angry, wondering why among his sons and grandsons, there wasn’t a single capable and spirited individual, when he saw their lives were threatened, Ye Yuanshan couldn’t help but speak out:

”The one you’re looking for is me, it has nothing to do with the other members of my family, don’t harm them!”

The leading assassin, with a slight smile, walked up to Ye Yuanshan and said disdainfully:

”Whether any of them will die depends on your performance!”

”I really don’t know where Ye Tianchen is!” Ye Yuanshan said earnestly.

”Is that so?”

Another assassin pulled Ye Qi out from the crowd, which instantly turned his face deathly pale, almost to the point of wetting himself. He knelt down, his body trembling as he pleaded:

”Don’t kill me, don’t kill me... Dad, dad, save me, save me...”

Ye Heguo never expected that one of the assassins would drag his son out. He was also terrified and wanted to rush forward to save his son, but seeing the bloody military knife in the assassin’s hand, he backed down. At that moment, he did not dare save his own son, exhibiting ultimate cowardice.

Swish!

The assassin’s military knife rested on Ye Qi’s neck as he knelt there, his entire body trembling, his trousers soaked, truly terrified to the point of wetting himself, repeatedly uttering the phrase ”Don’t kill me, don’t kill me.” Any previous audacity he had to confront Ye Tianchen, imposing and unstoppable, had completely vanished.

”Stop...”

Ye Yuanshan hurriedly shouted, even if these descendants were ungrateful and incompetent, he couldn’t stand to see them die, after all, they were his progeny.

”Ready to talk? You have one last chance, tell us where Ye Tianchen is?” the leading assassin, sneeringly said.

”I really don’t know...”

Spurt!

Before Ye Yuanshan could finish his words, a stream of blood burst forth from Ye Qi’s throat, splattering over ten meters. The entire person covered his neck in horror, trying to stop the bleeding, but his throat had been slit, resulting in a gruesome sight as he fell to the ground, his eyes filled with terror and fear of the impending death. He convulsed a few times and then died, the ground soaked with blood, a chilling scene.

”Son... Qi’er, Qi’er...”

Ye Heguo shouted loudly, wanting to rush over to see his son Ye Qi, but the assassin who killed Ye Qi immediately placed the military knife on Ye Heguo’s neck, scaring him into immobility. Although furious and heartbroken, the instinct to cling to life made Ye Heguo stop in his tracks.

”Ah... son, my son...”

At that moment, a middle-aged woman rushed out from the side. She had been blocked in the back and hadn’t noticed anything initially, but upon seeing the dead and her son missing, she cried out heart-wrenchingly and charged forward.

”Don’t go there, don’t, you’ll be killed...” Ye Heguo grabbed his wife.

Slap!

With a fierce slap, Ye Heguo’s wife struck him hard, her eyes filled with rage, her eyes bloodshot as she bitterly said:

”Ye Heguo, you always boast about how powerful you are. Now that our only son has been killed, and you won’t even seek revenge for him. Are you still a father? Are you even human?”

Ye Heguo’s wife, after yelling at Ye Heguo, rushed forward recklessly, unaware of the four young assassins who would kill without blinking. Killing for them was as mundane as chopping vegetables, and thus her fate was tragic. The moment she rushed forward, a dagger pierced her heart, and she fell into a pool of blood, dead beside her son, Ye Qi.

All those present, all members of the Ye family, gasped in shock. Many had a flash of anger in their eyes, but it quickly turned to fear, for these four assassins were formidable and deadly. Anyone who dared to approach would be killed. These privileged people had neither the skills nor the backbone, corroded by a life of luxury, now trembling in fear and continuously retreating.

At that moment, Ye Heguo was completely stunned. Everything had happened so suddenly. In just a moment, both his son and his wife were killed. He sat down on the ground, finally realizing that his arrogance, his invincibility, were all false and now useless. He could only watch helplessly as his son and wife were slain.

”You... I don’t care who you are, but for slaughtering the descendants of the Ye family like this, I will make you pay tenfold!” Ye Yuanshan said furiously, stomping his cane.

Swish!

The lead assassin in black wielded a knife at Ye Yuanshan’s neck, arrogantly declaring, ”Old man, if you weren’t still somewhat useful, we would have killed you already. Who do you think you are?”

”If you want to kill, kill me, but do not harm my family!” Ye Yuanshan defiantly declared.

”Rest assured, every time we bring someone out, we will ask you again. If you do not know or tell lies, we will kill someone, until we wipe out everyone present!” The lead assassin coldly declared.

Ye Yuanshan glared furiously at the lead assassin, sighing and feeling disappointed in his heart, unable to believe that this day had come to the Ye family, slaughtered without the power to fight back.

”Now, tell us, where is Ye Tianchen? If you still can’t tell, I’ll kill all of you!” the man who had killed Ye Qi and his mother menacingly asked with a sinister smile.

”You... you’re here for Ye Tianchen?” Ye Mubai asked, trembling.

”Do you know where he is?” the assassin demanded of Ye Mubai.

”No, I don’t know. That bastard Ye Tianchen has brought disaster to the Ye family, harmed our Ye family!” Ye Mubai exclaimed loudly, as if afraid he wouldn’t be heard.

”Hmph, Ye Tianchen killed our Beichen Ittoryu’s Sato, so all of you must die!” the lead assassin declared menacingly.

Hearing this, Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo and others realized it was Ye Tianchen’s action of killing Sato of Beichen Ittoryu that had led to this vengeful massacre, resulting in the death of over thirty guards of the Ye family, including Ye Heguo’s son and wife at the hands of these assassins.

”Father, that bastard Ye Tianchen has doomed our Ye family, it’s all his fault!” Ye Heguo said as he stood up, speaking bitterly.

”Father... I’ve always said that Ye Tianchen would cause a great disaster sooner or later. Now our Ye family has ended up like this because of him. He deserves to die!” Ye Mubai hurriedly added.

”Grandfather, maybe we should, you know, call Ye Tianchen back under a pretense and hand him over to them so we can be spared...” Ye Qianxuan couldn’t help but say.

Hearing this, the group of terrified Ye family members all agreed with Ye Qianxuan’s suggestion, wanting to lure Ye Tianchen back to the Ye family’s old house and hand him over to the four assassins. As for what happened to Ye Tianchen, they didn’t care; their safety was all that mattered.

”Father, that ungrateful bastard Ye Tianchen has brought such a disaster upon our Ye family, he deserves to die!” Ye Mubai said, seeing his father Ye Yuanshan hesitating.

”Ye Tianchen has always been a disgrace to our Ye family. Father, you can’t possibly want us to die along with this outcast, can you?” Ye Heguo also yelled furiously.

”Shut up, do you think handing Tianchen over to them will spare us? We will all die. I am so disappointed in you all; you truly do not deserve to be descendants of the Ye family!” Ye Yuanshan shouted angrily.

What Ye Yuanshan never expected was that upon discovering it was because of Ye Tianchen that the four assassins had attacked them, Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo would not hesitate to suggest handing over Ye Tianchen for slaughter, completely devoid of familial affection, and without a thought of vengeance or confronting these assassins. They were only concerned with pleasing them to ensure their own safety, naively thinking that by handing Ye Tianchen over, they would be spared. It was a grave miscalculation!

Indeed, these four assassins, following orders from Songben Xiajian, headed to the Ye family, wreaking havoc along the way, clearly indicating their intent. The command from Songben Xiajian was not only to ascertain Ye Tianchen’s whereabouts but also to annihilate all members of the Ye family to let everyone know the consequences of offending Beichen Ittoryu.

At that moment, the lead assassin, glancing at Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo, seemed to discern something, and had the other two assassins bring them out. As the bloody Japanese swords were held at their necks,

these spineless men immediately knelt down involuntarily, shivering, as the blood on the swords dripped down their necks, making Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo even more terrified, repeatedly pleading, ”Don’t kill me, don’t kill me!”
