Chapter 30: Injustice

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the palace of the Zhang family.

A group of Mei clansmen were staring at the white paper before them and were all keeping quiet.

In the end, they all looked at their protector simultaneously, helpless looks on their faces

The Precelestial Ninth Erudition powerhouse was killed instantly without any prior warnings.

There were even some protectors who blurted, “You’re the Ultimate Demi-King of the Lin family.”

The meaning behind it was truly horrifying.

They dared not offend when dealing with such an existence.

Hence, they could only leave it to their higher-ups to deal with them.

Obviously, the one with the highest status was the Black Robe Protector.

The Black Robe Protector was speechless.

Currently, he had no idea what should be done!

‘Why are they all looking at me?’

‘This is immense pressure!’

“Senior, we, the Mei clan, have lots of powerhouses. Someone like me is just a trivial existence within the clan; there are lots of Ultimate Demi-King. There are even genuine elder Kings sitting guard. This time, we have offended you guys unintentionally and we apologize for it. We’ll be leaving right now and we swear not to set another foot on the Xia clan ever again!”

The Black Robe Protector was thinking fast and finally said these words through gritted teeth.

He had thought it through.

Given the intruder’s actions, if the person who showed up was the hidden elder of the Lin family, there was no way he would let them off the hook.

Hence, the only hope of survival is to flex a little of their might.

There was still no guarantee that they could survive even if they revealed it, but they would for sure be dead if they did not do anything!

“Kings huh! You guys have got quite the nice lineup there.”

Chu He’s expression was calm.

“But, I asked you to write, not talk!”

His voice became cold and he suddenly made a gesture.

He launched a slap.

A clapping sound was heard.

The Black Robe Protector suddenly began spinning around the ground more than ten rounds, vomiting blood all the while.

However, compared to the pain he felt on his face, deep within his heart, he was feeling even more terrified.

He had no strength to show any resistance.

He was being beaten up without being able to do anything about it.

He did not activate his subconscious defense, let alone attempt a counter-attack movement.

Even now, he could not make his body stop spinning around even if he wanted to.

That one slap made his entire body feel numb.

He felt that his body no longer belonged to himself.

His body kept on spinning till it stopped on its own.

Then, like an ordinary person, he was stunned after spinning around. His body swung around twice and finally stumbled and flopped onto the floor on his bottom.

‘It’s true!’

‘This is the hidden elder of the Lin family.’

‘He is far scarier than the legends described.’

Demi-Kings were no more than chickens before him.

He could take or whenever he desired. He had full control of his life and death.

“This is definitely not an Ultimate Demi-King!”

The Black Robe Protector cursed silently.

‘Indeed there’s a mistake in the rumors. They did not exaggerate it, but rather they underestimated it!’

The elder Ultimate Demi-King within his own clan had never given him such a crushing feeling or pressure.

There was a huge difference between a weakling and a powerhouse.

“You, you’re a King!”

The Black Robe Protector’s mouth had blood seeping out. He shook his head and could not speak clearly. His tone was accompanied by suffocating dismay.

‘If a King has really personally shown up, this is really the end of the line!’

‘Even the slimmest ray of survival is gone.’

‘How can the Xia clan still have Kings staying guard?’

‘Even if they do have one, it’s still a big issue that they’re not guarding at the borders

Instead, he is residing in the Lin commandery which seemed rather unimportant in comparison.’

‘This doesn’t make any sense!’

The other Mei clan members within the palace, along with the clansmen of the Zhang family, were all stunned!

‘How can such a powerful guardian lose all control after being softly slapped?!’

That was beyond their wildest imagination.

‘This is not a dream, right?’

Not to mention...

‘What did the guardian say earlier?’

‘King?’

‘This guy is a King?’

At that moment, no obvious changes could be seen as the outlines of all the Mei clansmen were concealed within the black robes. Meanwhile, the clansmen of the Zhang family, who were standing at the corner of the wall, had their faces turn pale instantly.

They realized that things were getting much more serious than they imagined.

The King of the Xia clan had personally made an appearance.

The Zhang family had joined forces with the foreign clan and would not be forgiven.

‘We are so done for!’

They were shaking with fear.

Suddenly!

Boom. Someone got down to their knees. His head slammed against the ground and both his palms were pressed on the floor as he cried out in a loud and choking voice, “Senior, please seek justice for us, the Zhang family!”

“All these people in black robes, they are not human. They are foreign clansmen in disguise.”

“They suddenly appeared on the grounds of our Zhang family, forcing us to be slaves. Our abilities were weak. My clansmen wanted to put their lives on the line to defy them but I made them stop!”

“It’s not that I’m afraid of death, but it’s just that I know there are more important things that we should still be doing.”

“These foreign clans are evil. They must be plotting something as they are invading the grounds of the Xia clan, yet the world is unaware of it.”

“So I thought, if we gave up our lives like that, we would be able to maintain our innocence, but there would be no meaning to it.”

“We had to live on!”

“The most important thing was to send out this information!”

“But, the foreign clan’s abilities are overwhelming and their guards are high. We kept failing to seize the chance. Those clansmen who took the risk to escape were tortured to death when they were spotted!”

“I was heartbroken. Yet, I persisted and forced myself to view it in an optimistic manner.”

“I kept telling my clansmen who could not bear it-for the sake of the Xia clan, this trivial humiliation of the Zhang family is nothing!”

“We got to bear with it!”

“Fortunately, our patience has not been meaningless.”

“We managed to wait till we saw the light at the end of the tunnel... we managed to hold out until Senior’s arrival!”

The leader of the Zhang family, Zhang Tai, shouted loudly within the crowd.

He got more and more agitated as he spoke. He had a sorrowful expression and his choked voice was tinted with sincerity.

In the palace, only Zhang Tai’s choking could be heard.

All the Zhang family members were stunned, let alone the Mei clan!

‘Holy crap!’

Deep within their hearts, only those two words emerged.

They had just witnessed what it truly meant to twist the facts and tell blunt lies.

He did not mention anything about the Zhang family but only focused on the Mei clan. With that, they gave the impression that they had done something to the clansmen of the Zhang family and had locked them up.

That comment made them all start to wonder whether or not the Zhang family really had been shouldering such a huge burden.

‘The way he says it sounds too convincing.’

‘Too sincere.’

‘Such a genuine emotion!’

Boom!

A clansman of the Zhang family was smart enough and collected himself.

He imitated Zhang Tai, slamming his head on the ground and raising his hands high up to shout.

“Please, Senior, seek justice for us!”

He was also crying, except that he was crying because he was scared!

The emotions were not complying.

He did not display any of the touching emotions of Zhang Tai.

Btoom! Btoom! Btoom!

The clansmen of the Zhang family were not fools. Someone had taken the lead, and they obviously knew what to do next.

One after another their knees became jelly and they kneeled on the floor.

Their hands were held high.

They all shouted simultaneously.

“Please, Senior, please seek justice for us!”

The entire scene in the palace suddenly changed!
