Supreme Sword God

Chapter 369: Chapter 368: Revenge Does Not Wait Till Morning, Just Do It

Tian Bugui looked at the trembling Qi Yue and said lightly, ”Just pretend I never came. Continue with what you were doing.”

Qi Yue’s mouth twitched, and he bent over with his head lowered, saying, ”Inspector Tian, I was just calling Ye Chen for the routine questioning. I’ve asked everything I should, so I’ll release him now.”

As he spoke, Qi Yue immediately grabbed the key from the prison guard, opened the cell door, and said, ”Young Master Ye...”

Ye Chen didn’t even glance at the person, striding out of the cell and saying, ”Thank you, Elder Qi, and Young Master Mu.”

Elder Qi said, ”Young Master Ye, you are too polite. I haven’t really been of any help.”

He felt somewhat frustrated speaking of it.

He came to do a favor, but it was not delivered properly.

It was one thing that Mu Baoming burst in, but then Tian Bugui showed up as well.

Fortunately, at least his stance was made clear to Ye Chen.

Mu Baoming, mindful of Ye Chen’s Chaotic Cloak Celestial Spirit Hammer’s thirty-sixth strike, naturally said politely, ”I feel a kinship with Young Master Ye at first sight. How could the Mu Mansion stand by when Young Master Ye encounters trouble at our door?”

Ye Chen: ”...”

A kinship at first sight... If it were true, why not invite me for a cup of tea at the Mu Mansion before letting me go?

Forget it, these small matters are not worth fussing over. They brought in a whole group to break in directly, which was quite considerate.

In the end, Ye Chen looked at Tian Bugui and said, ”Sorry for troubling the Hall Master.”

Besides his position as an Inspector, Tian Bugui is also the Hall Master of the Bright Hall.

The title of the Inspector is for outsiders. Among his own, calling him the Hall Master is more affectionate.

Previously, when he saw Old Tian fighting with those from the Celestial Eye Race, he thought Old Tian was insufficient. But now it seems Old Tian is quite imposing.

Tian Bugui glanced at Ye Chen and said, ”Trouble or not, you are from the True Martial Hall and have joined the Bright Hall. If anyone tries to bully you, just fight back.”

Ye Chen replied with a hum, turned to look at Qi Yue, Qi Chuan, Wang Shu, and the sharp-tongued woman, his expression calm as he took two steps forward.

The next moment.

A flash of light appeared on the Storage Ring, the Celestial Mark Sword fell into Ye Chen’s palm, and he instantly stabbed forward three times!

”Puff-puff-puff!”

The heads of Qi Chuan and the other two burst open with three holes.

”Thud-thud-thud!”

The bodies hit the ground with a dull thud.

The eyes of the three corpses were wide open.

Qi Yue, Qi Mo, Mu Baoming, and Tian Bugui were all wide-eyed as well.

Nobody expected that Ye Chen would strike with such lethal intent at that moment!

”Ye Chen, you...”

Qi Yue, realizing what had happened, pointed a finger at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen’s lips curled with a cold smile.

They had made the mistake of sparing the lives of Qi Chuan and his gang before, who then turned around and used such underhanded means.

Ye Chen had already stated that if they didn’t kill him, he would kill them.

Cut off what must be cut, kill and speak later!

After all, Old Tian had said, just fight it out.

Ye Chen looked at Qi Yue, who was pointing a finger at him, and said, ”Prison Director Qi, didn’t you just say it would take no time to kill me? Go ahead.”

Qi Yue: ”...”

At this moment, with Tian Bugui staring at him, he dared not take action, lest Tian Bugui’s gaze alone would be the end of him.

”Inspector Tian, Elder Qi, Young Master Mu.”

Suddenly, a young man arrived with several guards whose presence was not weak.

Qi Mo nodded, and a hint of dread flashed in Mu Baoming’s eyes.

Tian Bugui snorted, ”Qi Xiu, things have come to this, and yet your Qi Family Patriarch hasn’t come to check on things?”

The young man called Qi Xiu by Tian Bugui said, ”Inspector Tian, my father is handling important matters and is not in Celestial Cyan City.”

Given the awkward situation, even if the Qi Family Patriarch arrived, he would have to begrudgingly admit fault since it was initially the Qi Family’s wrongdoing. Hence, he wouldn’t come to clean up this mess only to create trouble for himself.

Tian Bugui said, ”So you’re here on behalf of the Qi Family or for the True Martial Hall.”

Ye Chen, listening on the side, was stunned for a moment.

From these few words, it could be inferred that this Qi Xiu is the son of the Qi Family Patriarch and also joined the True Martial Hall!

Qi Xiu said, ”Inspector Tian, I come, firstly, on behalf of the True Martial Hall to release Ye Chen from prison. Secondly, I am here representing the Qi Family to punish those who acted recklessly.”

His words were well-spoken.

Everyone knew it was pure nonsense, only coming because things had escalated so much, or Qi Xiu wouldn’t have bothered to show up.

Ye Chen sneered, ”I would like to know how the Qi Family plans to severely punish them.”

Qi Xiu looked at Ye Chen and said, ”Ye Chen, you’ve been wronged, but you haven’t suffered a loss. You killed three people to vent your anger, didn’t you?”

Ye Chen said, ”Not all of them.”

Qi Yue shuddered all over, stood to the side, not daring to make a sound.

”Ye Chen, how would you like to handle it?” Qi Xiu didn’t respond directly, instead, he threw the question back to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen looked at Tian Bugui and said, ”I ask the Hall Master to make a decision for me.”

Slaying the three young ones was done.

This Qi Yue, being the Prison Director, had some standing in the Qi Family, which was one of the three major families governing Celestial Cyan City, making it somewhat troublesome.

Otherwise, Old Tian would have already beheaded Qi Yue instead of leaving it until now.

So Ye Chen, after venting his anger earlier, stopped with the slaughter of Qi Chuan and the others.

Tian Bugui glanced at Ye Chen, then at Qi Xiu, and finally looked at Prison Director Qi Yue and said, ”Sever an arm as an apology.”

Qi Xiu looked at Qi Yue and said, ”Aren’t you going to thank Inspector Tian for sparing your life?”

Qi Yue gritted his teeth and said, ”Thank you, Inspector Tian, for your magnanimity.”

”What about me?” Ye Chen said.

”Can’t kill you, just disgust you to death!”

Qi Yue could only force himself and said, ”Thank you, Young Master Ye, for letting me off. If you haven’t yet vented your frustration, then this arm of mine, please cut it!”

Ye Chen’s eyes lit up.

You said it yourself!

A flash of the sword light swiftly cut down, severing one of Qi Yue’s arms.

Qi Yue’s forehead was soon covered in cold sweat, but he gritted his teeth, not uttering a sound.

Everyone thought it was over when Ye Chen suddenly said blandly, ”Our Hall Master just said you should sever your own arm.”

The crowd: ”...”

Tian Bugui nodded, ”I don’t have much time to keep wasting here.”

Ye Chen said, ”How about I continue?”

Qi Yue trembled all over.

To sever an arm oneself... One arm was already cut by Ye Chen. If Ye Chen cut another, he would be left with no arms. How could he then sever an arm himself?

”No need to trouble Young Master Ye, I’ll do it myself!” Qi Yue shouted, and in the next moment, his power burst at his left shoulder, and his left arm fell to the ground.

Afraid that Ye Chen would find another excuse to make things difficult for himself, Qi Yue’s body shuddered again, let out a muffled groan, and fainted directly.

”Young Master Ye, shall we consider this matter settled?” Qi Xiu asked.

Ye Chen said lightly, ”There’s one more thing.”

A creak came from Qi Xiu as he gritted his teeth.

Is this never-ending?

Ye Chen looked at the Wine Monk sitting still in the corner of the cell and said, ”This master has done no wrong yet was caught and imprisoned. I must take him with me.”

The Wine Monk had become quite agreeable in Ye Chen’s eyes, so offering him a hand in this situation felt right.

Qi Xiu now desperately wished to send Ye Chen off as quickly as possible. Releasing one person was of no consequence, so he readily agreed.

A moment later.

Ye Chen followed Tian Bugui, walking out of the prison.

Qi Mo, who followed them out, said, ”Young Master Ye, when you have time, come to Celestial Soldier Pavilion, and we’ll certainly treat you to fine wine and food.”

Mu Baoming said, ”Brother Ye, I’ll visit you at the True Martial Hall some days.”

The Wine Monk, clutching the large Buddhist beads on his neck, said, ”Thank you for today’s matter, Young Master Ye. Next time we meet, I’ll treat you to a drink.”

Ye Chen gave each a brief response and then departed with Tian Bugui.

Qi Mo and Mu Baoming returned home, while the Wine Monk watched Ye Chen’s retreating figure, a faint smile appeared on his lips.

He was, in fact, the Battling Monk sent by Ye Chen’s mother to protect him. Being imprisoned in the dungeon was also a way to be close and keep an eye on Ye Chen.
