The Demon Swordsman 2
Ch. 243 - Uninvited Guest
The gathering of the group members took place so quickly, Xin Chen could no longer count how many of them the exact number exceeded 300 people. Eight units of one another stood on top of the base fortress that was not so high, in the middle of them Xin Chen stood while staring intently at the troops in his arms.
"Dong Ye I've removed. To anyone who dares to take action without my knowledge. Prepare for a second massacre in this place, I know no tolerance for a traitor. Perhaps elsewhere, people seemed to be living up to his plan ..." His gaze swept out in all directions, "But in this place my law and plans go. Watch your steps. We have big goals, adding to the problem will only bring misery. For that, I won't look for a replacement for Dong Ye."
Xin Chen paused his sentence, he realized the new member was so frightened as he spoke. Breathe out slowly. "Lan Zhuxian, you take over."
Lan Zhuxian nodded, turning the other's attention to her.
Xin Chen looked for a quieter place, calming his chaotic thoughts the past few days. There are so many things that frustrate him. How to save the Lightning Fox and her father.
That instant Xin Chen regretted deeply, he threw away everything and while losing only the regret he felt. He stared at the pitch-black night sky covered by the flashing bats. Black wings, his memory was fixed on Ye Long.
The young man immediately stood up, looking hurried. However, the eight members of unit one stopped their steps. Xin Chen stared at the eight of them for quite a while.
"Is Young Master going again?" Lan Zhuxian asked politely, not getting an answer he lowered his head, "Before that let me ask, what about the rest of Dong Ye's cabal? I doubt I'll take action against them."
"They just get paid, the guy's dead. There's nothing they need to obey anymore."
"Then what, Young Master?"
"Kill it." she replied lightly, Shui let out a shout. "Those are almost a hundred people!"
"Then I leave it to Shui. Whatever it is, I don't care."
As Xin Chen resumed his steps, they seemed to be in disbelief. Keeping this headquarters alone eight in the absence of a leader figure was something impossible. The incident that Dong Ye caused left some of them traumatized, especially Nan Yin who fainted when the massacre happened. The girl had to wonder why Lan Zhuxian was willing to follow that person. Too dangerous.
"We don't know what's going on with you. But leaving the headquarters at will like this, makes me really sick."
"Nobody forbids you to stay."
Nan Yin squeaked in annoyance, wanting on his face slap it hard. But he was quite self-aware of where his current position was. Without this headquarters it was definitely him, Tian Xi, Nan Ran as well as Lan Zhuxian would sleep on the streets like a vagrant.
Xin Chen raised his hand, a crow emerged from the change of spirit form and perched on his arm. Xin Chen looked at the eight people. "Tell me if anything happens, this time I won't be long. Make sure to keep this place, we have a house that must be guarded together. Don't get scattered again."
"Hahahha, by the way Lord Shark seems to be disturbed by its own members." Tian Xi folded both hands behind his neck, his frequent smile melting the atmosphere. "They're against you."
"They're scared," Xin Chen errs. His tone implied uneasiness.
Bai Huang added, "It's good that way, Young Master. They won't dare to mess around anymore, considering we've kept your identity a good secret."
"Good work" he said. Then with a heavy heart he looked at the eight people. It seemed that he was too lousy when faced with group cooperation. Xin Chen did not expect that all would be this chaotic. They're looking down in unison. "Be careful on the road, Young Master."
"Sir Bai, we have an important guest!"
"Who? Why don't you come by the mail or permission first?"
"I don't know, Sir. We know this person so well ... D-he ..." The man's tone was slightly trembling.
"He's the first Young Master Xin. Xin Zhan's."
Bai Huang was so shocked that even the others, they had not prepared themselves at all. Not counting on the arrival of guests from the Empire so soon. The reporter added, "But the first Young Master Xin did not bring any troops. Only fifteen bodyguards, seem to be about to talk to our leader. They're currently we're holding at the gate until we get permission."
Bai Huang started to growl in the fog, he paced back and forth agitatedly. Meeting Xin Chen and Xin Zhan was a hunting idea, he could understand just how far Xin Chen had gone to cover up his identity. "It's good that we keep this matter a secret from Young Master. That guest, who's gonna take care of it?"
No one wanted to answer, not even Lan Zhuxian. He did not dare to face the person because of his personal hard lie. Xin Zhan is her twin brother. As soon as pn with the others, they retreated until now only Tian Xi was in front of them.
"Okay, it's been determined. Tian Xi will come forward facing Young Master Xin first."
"Oh-ho, as good as you are, Senior Bai-ho"
"There is no rejection."
"Hi, I've been stressed enough with those fucking fish, and you're knocking me out as bait for Mr Shark's brother?"
"Of course, don't protest too much. Get down there." Nan Ran whispered small, "Hopefully your body is still intact."
Tian Xi sneered, gulping as he came to the gate where there had been crowded by sixteen guests including Xin Zhan and also the gatekeepers of the headquarters.
Xin Zhan bowed his head respectfully, "I was sent by Emperor Qin directly to meet your chief. My name is Xin Zhan, we expect your kindness to welcome our offer."
"Ho? what offer? Want to raise fish here?"
Xin Zhan smiled faintly at the strange response, very informal. "Are you the leader?"
"No. But for sure, our chairman has been very, very busy. You better go home. We don't make deals with any party."
"Can't you consider it again?" Xin Zhan insisted, "Let me meet with your leader. In just a few minutes, if you resist maybe Emperor Qin will consider your attitude a form of war. This is the land of the Shang Empire. You have no right to take it without the Emperor's legal recognition."
Tian Xi laughed out loud. "Hahahha, you're very good at joking. When the Four Surveillance Units slaughtered hundreds of people across the village, no one intervened. Now he is busy dealing with land disputes. The nobles are indeed very rotten!" Then Tian Xi spat beside him. Xin Zhan hampr could not believe getting such treatment. The sword on his waist was drawn, indirectly indeed Tian Xi was inviting war.
