Chapter 196 The Elite of Waste River City
Chapter 196 The Elite of Waste River City
Within Jiang City, there are overt family powers, while ten major gangs are causing trouble in the shadows...
However, the Yin-Yang Gate, which stands proudly atop the mountain, is not included in this classification.
A sect composed entirely of martial artists, whose strength can crush any other force.
Even though the Zhong family is the most powerful family in Jiang City, they still have to be wary of the Yin-Yang Sect.
"He Tao, what do you mean?" the Zhong family head asked with a stern face.
"The literal meaning." He Tao said with a smug smile.
In the past, he had been kicked out of the Zhong family many times when he came, but this time, he was arrogant and fearless.
"I have great news to tell you all! I have joined the Yin-Yang Sect. The sect leader himself came down the mountain to accept me as his personal disciple!" He Tao said loudly, his face full of pride.
"Are you telling the truth?" The Zhong family members all looked surprised upon hearing this.
The personal disciple of the Yin-Yang Sect Master—that's quite a prestigious title; he could practically do whatever he wanted in Jiang City.
The Zhong family really doesn't dare to offend them too much.
“Of course it’s true.” He Tao smiled as he looked at the handsome young man beside him.
"This is my senior brother. The sect leader specifically ordered him to accompany me to the Zhong family to propose marriage."
The young man slowly took out a yin-yang fish waist tag.
“What Junior Brother He said is all true. Master heard that he is fond of Miss Zhong, so he specially ordered me to accompany him to propose marriage to the Zhong family on behalf of the Yin Yang Sect.” He said calmly, and then took out a letter.
"This is a letter written in my master's own handwriting. Please take a look." He handed the letter to the head of the Zhong family.
The head of the Zhong family took it, opened it, and looked at it; his expression grew even more grim.
No one expected He Tao to pull off such a massive operation, putting the Zhong family in a dilemma.
This isn't a marriage proposal; it's a coup attempt.
Using the Yin-Yang Gate to oppress the Zhong family...
"I suppose the members of the Zhong family will give my Yin Yang Sect this face?" the Yin Yang Sect's chief disciple said after scanning the Zhong family members.
This is a blatant threat.
The Zhong family members looked grim and fell silent.
The Zhong family's confidence comes from Old Master Zhong, but he is currently bedridden and has not yet recovered...
"I won't marry him, He Tao. Forget about it. Do you think you're worthy of marrying me?" Zhong Ling retorted angrily.
"I'm not worthy?" He Tao sneered.
“I am the number one martial artist among the younger generation in Jiang City, and now I have become a direct disciple of the Yin Yang Sect. How am I not good enough for you?”
"Among the younger generation in Jiang City, can you find anyone more outstanding than me?"
“Why not?” Zhong Ling immediately retorted, involuntarily glancing at Xiao Chen.
Although we don't know Xiao Chen's true strength, Dongfang Ruyi said that she couldn't beat him. Even if there was an exaggeration involved, Xiao Chen's strength must be extraordinary.
"What? You want to say he's better than me?" He Tao followed Zhong Ling's gaze and couldn't help but reveal a mocking expression.
After all, Xiao Chen never revealed his aura, and he seemed to have no imposing presence. You couldn't sense any martial arts aura from him.
"This person is no match for my junior brother," the senior disciple of the Yin-Yang Sect calmly concluded.
"You have no idea how powerful he is!" Zhong Ling retorted immediately. "You know the Three Young Masters of the Martial Alliance, right? Even she..."
Before Zhong Ling could finish speaking, Xiao Chen glared at her, and she shut her mouth guiltily.
"What Martial Alliance Three Young Masters Alliance?" the Yin Yang Sect's eldest disciple asked, frowning.
Zhong Ling did not answer, choosing to remain silent.
"Trying to push someone out as a shield, is that it? Don't you think any Tom, Dick, or Harry would be worthy?" He Tao said with disdain, not taking Xiao Chen seriously at all.
"Among the younger generation in Jiang City, there is no one who can stand shoulder to shoulder with me!" he said decisively, confidently and arrogantly.
Zhong Ling was so angry that she couldn't speak.
"Alright," Xiao Chen said, his voice indifferent.
“Since you’re from the Yin-Yang Sect, I’ll take care of the Zhong family’s matter,” he said to the Zhong family members.
These words made He Tao and the senior disciple of the Yin-Yang Sect's faces turn gloomy.
Xiao Chen's tone made it seem as if the Yin-Yang Sect meant nothing to him.
"Kid, what makes you think you are? This is none of your business! I think you're just being arrogant and looking for trouble, aren't you?" He Tao said in a sinister tone.
Xiao Chen had no interest in talking to him and reached out a hand to grab his neck.
"Huh? You want to fight me?" He Tao was furious and immediately threw a punch.
The senior disciple of the Yin-Yang Sect watched indifferently, feeling that he didn't need to intervene and that He Tao could easily handle the situation himself.
He Tao punched Xiao Chen's palm...
"Ah..." he let out a painful scream.
It felt as if he had hit an impenetrable wall; his arm twisted instantly and broke in a flash.
The senior disciple of the Yin-Yang Sect's expression hardened.
Before he could react, Xiao Chen had already grabbed He Tao by the neck and lifted him up.
He Tao had no power to resist.
From the moment Xiao Chen caught him, his whole body went limp like mud, and he couldn't muster any strength at all.
He tried to forcefully strike Xiao Chen with his internal force, but it was like throwing a mud ox into the sea; the endless abyss was terrifyingly deep.
He Tao was extremely shocked, and his expression turned terrified.
Despite being roughly the same age, he was as weak as an ant in Xiao Chen's hands...
The title of "Number One Young Person in Jiang City" is utterly meaningless; the two are not even in the same league.
Zhong Ling was stunned.
She hadn't expected Xiao Chen's actions to have this effect.
He Tao is completely outmatched...
Just like an adult manipulating a child, it's effortless.
What level of strength has Xiao Chen reached?
"Senior brother..." He Tao called out with difficulty, struggling to breathe, to the eldest disciple of the Yin-Yang Sect.
"Release him immediately!" the Yin Yang Sect's chief disciple shouted in a deep voice.
"The true disciples of my Yin Yang Sect hold a noble status. If anything happens to them, the sect leader will certainly hold them accountable!"
"At that time, not only you, but the Zhong family will also be implicated!"
Because Xiao Chen was holding He Tao by the throat, the senior disciple of the Yin Yang Sect dared not make any rash moves and could only issue threats.
Of course, Xiao Chen wouldn't give a damn about his top disciple.
He glanced at He Tao, then drew a wisp of internal energy from his dantian, transforming it into true qi that surged into the other man's body.
"what……"
He Tao's screams were incredibly shrill and chilling to the bone.
Even if Xiao Chen's true energy was only a wisp, it was still beyond what he could withstand.
In just a few seconds, all his meridians were destroyed, his dantian shattered, and he had no internal energy left.
Finally, He Tao fell silent, his face deathly pale.
Xiao Chen casually tossed it on the ground.
The Zhong family was dumbfounded.
Such a decisive style of action, showing no fear of the Yin-Yang Sect's threat, is truly astonishing.
Zhong Ling was stunned, bewildered, and her mind was a bit confused.
"Is he dead?" The head of the Zhong family frowned, somewhat worried.
"He's ruined. He'll be a cripple from now on," Xiao Chen said calmly.
The Zhong family members were taken aback upon hearing this.
The eldest disciple of the Yin-Yang Sect had a face so dark it looked like it was about to drip water, and his eyes were filled with rage.
"You...you have some nerve!"
