Berserk God of War

98: Chapter 098: City Lord?

A Slap 98: Chapter 098: City Lord?

A Slap Su Zhenglong regained his senses, a towering rage emanating from the depths of his heart.

If it weren’t for his daughter, Su Yue Immortal, who acted in secret, Xiaofang would have become a hostage, and the consequences would have been unthinkable.

He also agreed with Hai Ke’s words; it must have been Yue Xian who made the move in secret, otherwise, within Yunye City, no one would help them, nor could anyone easily penetrate Luo Tong’s temple and do so without making a sound.

“Chu Rongxian…”

Su Zhenglong gritted his teeth and, clutching his Big Long Saber, took large strides forward.

The son-in-law and his father-in-law, covered in blood, grasped their long weapons and took steps towards the people of the Three Great Families.

Fearful, the Three Great Families retreated; the hearts of Chu Rongxian and others turned to ash!

Now with the presence of Su Yue Immortal, a Peak Human Realm figure, lurking in the shadows, they had no way out, their guts green with regret.

Why did that calamitous Luo Tong take Su Zhenglong’s wife as a hostage?

Chu Rongxian had already forgotten how he had just been smiling more happily than anyone else.

“The City Lord has arrived!”

Just as the Three Great Families were losing hope, a sharp cry came from the entrance of the Martial Arts Arena.

In an instant, Chu Rongxian, Hai Ke, and others trembled with excitement at the sight of hope.

Su Zhenglong’s face turned unsightly as he looked towards the entrance, unfortunately obstructed by the arena and unable to see.

Meanwhile, others saw City Lord Duan Chengshan, along with his chief hunter Xing E and a host of guards, enter from the gate, his chubby face bearing a hint of a kind smile.

He scanned the entire arena; indeed, it was a scene of fresh blood and bodies, quite a battle it was.

At that moment, two figures flashed out from behind Duan Chengshan—it was none other than Su Xuefeng and Su Zhengtao.

They, together, knelt down before Duan Chengshan.

Su Xuefeng cried out desperately, “City Lord, I beg you to save my children and grandchildren.”

“City Lord, I beg you to save my elder brother’s family,” Su Zhengtao also said emphatically, managing to squeeze out a tear.

However, as they bowed their heads, a sinister smile emerged.

This was to perform their act in front of the whole city, to show everyone how much Su Xuefeng cared for his offspring.

Yet the entire venue fell silent, their lips twitching—do your children and grandchildren need your plea for rescue right now?

Unfortunately, Su Xuefeng had yet to notice anything, subconsciously believing that Sikong Jing and Su Zhenglong must be close to death by now.

Sikong Jing and others were on the other side of the arena, blocked by the tall platform.

Therefore, Su Xuefeng continued, “City Lord, I am willing to offer three Green Jade Papers in exchange for the rescue of my offspring.”

He deliberately spoke loudly, intended for Sikong Jing and Su Zhenglong to hear.

Heh, you didn’t want to give me the Green Jade Papers, did you?

Wanted to keep it all to yourselves, right?

Now let’s see if you’ll give it up.

Damn it, how dare you beat me up, I’ll make sure you get nothing and still have to thank me.

Duan Chengshan hadn’t seen the situation behind the arena either.

He smiled and said, “Get up, let me assess the situation first.”

Once he finished speaking, he led his men past Su Xuefeng and his son, heading towards the arena.

“City Lord, City Lord…”

A miserable cry rang out as the City Lord’s Guard Officer, whose legs had been crippled by Sikong Jing, crawled down from the arena, weeping, “City Lord, I’m ruined; that damned criminal has crippled me.”

Duan Chengshan’s gaze faltered; this guard officer was one of his trusted advisors.

He looked at Su Xuefeng with a cold face and said, “Patriarch Su, your criminal son-in-law has gone too far, disabling one of the men I valued highly; it’s really difficult for me.”

Just a minor advisor, and now disabled; but if Su Xuefeng wanted to save someone, that would cost extra.

Upon hearing this, without any hesitation, Su Xuefeng said, “City Lord, my criminal son-in-law surely holds great treasures.

I’ll make him hand them all over to you, just spare their lives.”

Upon hearing this promise, Duan Chengshan nodded in satisfaction and made his way up to the arena.

But as he observed the situation on one side of the arena, his squinted eyes bulged with the realization that something was amiss!

At the same time, naturally, Sikong Jing also saw Duan Chengshan.

But he didn’t even acknowledge that, instead he thrust his spear straight into the chest of a Human Realm expert from the Ren Family, their piteous scream shooting straight into the sky, making everyone stare wide-eyed.

All the spectators in the arena were stunned!

At that moment, Xing E also saw what was happening and bellowed, “Audacious villain, to dare commit murder in front of the City Lord.”

The very next instant, Su Xuefeng also let out a wild cry, “My son, oh my son!”

Damn, who’s been killed?

Listening to the scream, it was a man; just pray it’s not that criminal, otherwise, it would be big trouble if we can’t find the three pieces of Green Jade Paper.

As he thought this, he tried hard to sob as he rushed onto the stage.

“My son…

Ah!”

When he saw the scene before his eyes, his voice got stuck in his throat.

He saw Sikong Jing and Su Zhenglong standing there, just fine, while Chu Rongxian and others had the look of death on their faces, cornered.

That’s not right, it shouldn’t be like this…

Su Xuefeng rubbed his eyes hard.

Just then, Hai Ke knelt down with a plop and wailed, “City Lord save us, Su Zhenglong and his criminal son-in-law are slaughtering the Three Great Families, they are too cruel.”

After that, others began to kneel down one after another.

Chu Bo also pleaded desperately, “City Lord, please kill these two murderers, save us.”

The corner of Duan Chengshan’s mouth twitched as he finally realized what was happening, but how could this be?

Su Zhenglong’s family was supposed to be in dire straits, right?

How did they, win against the Three Great Families?

Pfft…

Suddenly, Sikong Jing speared another kneeling person, completely disregarding the City Lord.

“Ajing,” even Su Zhenglong was stunned, Ajing was too impulsive.

All at once, Duan Chengshan’s expression darkened, and Xing E was furious as he charged out, “You dare to keep killing people, you think the City Lord doesn’t exist?”

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Xing E was already upon Sikong Jing…

Bang!

He was met with a heavy thrust from Sikong Jing.

Xing E was at the Seventh Level of the Human Realm, but in that instant, he felt a terrifying force come at him, forcing him back three steps.

His hands shook violently, and he stared at Sikong Jing in disbelief.

How could he be so strong?

At that moment, Sikong Jing did not even acknowledge him but instead walked towards the stage, spear in hand, with Duan Chengshan as his obvious target.

Su Zhenglong felt a shive, a bad premonition suddenly rising within him.

But now, he had to keep Chu Rongxian and the others down, giving them no chance to fight back.

More importantly, with these people in hand, he had the leverage to negotiate terms with the City Lord.

Seeing Sikong Jing advancing step by step, Duan Chengshan’s eyes narrowed, wanting to see what he was going to do.

Suddenly, Su Xuefeng stepped forward and commanded, “Criminal, you’ve gone too far, and you even dare to kill in front of the City Lord.

I order you, kneel down immediately and present all your treasures to the City Lord.”

Although he did not know how they managed to win, he could not let their plan fail, he had to force Sikong Jing to offer up the treasure.

But Sikong Jing still ignored him, instead, he fixed his gaze on Duan Chengshan and asked, “Are you the Lord of Yunye City?”

“Yes, and you’re the criminal married off by the Lord of Yunzhou?”

Duan Chengshan asked back with a sneer, figuring out how to force them to hand over the treasure, with his own strength not within consideration as long as it wasn’t beyond the Human Realm.

As the City Lord, Duan Chengshan’s realm was the Third Level of the Earth Realm.

Slap!

But suddenly, Sikong Jing raised his hand and smacked Duan Chengshan across the face.

The crisp sound echoed throughout the arena!
