Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 737: Chapter 736 Unreasonable

The Qi Family members all changed their expressions dramatically, and the five Terrestrial Immortals furrowed their brows tightly. Ye Jiansheng and Lian Wanxiong had actually come for the affairs of their Qi Family. What exactly were they trying to do?

The Third Ancestor clenched his teeth and said solemnly, ”Both of you have cultivated for many years and should be clear about the principle of ’each cleans the snow from his own doorsteps.’ Just mind your own family’s business; our Qi Family’s affairs do not require your concern!”

Ye Jiansheng shook his head and said, ”While that may be true, this youngster surnamed Su has some ties of kinship with Brother Lian and me. We still need to take care of his affairs!”

The Qi Family members’ expressions changed again, Ye Jiansheng and Lian Wanxiong were indeed here for Su Yang!

This was going to be troublesome. The Terrestrial Immortals of the Qi Family were probably no match for Ye Jiansheng and Lian Wanxiong.

”Are you two planning to favor this Su fellow?” The Third Ancestor shouted angrily, ”This man came to Lake Heart Island and not only slaughtered our Qi Family members with abandon but also insulted our Qi Family to the extreme, making him our arch-enemy. If you truly insist on helping him, then you are determined to become an eternal foe to our Qi Family. Though our Qi Family is only ordinary in strength, we will not tolerate anyone trampling over our heads. We of the Qi Family can die, but we will not suffer humiliation. Otherwise, we will surely fight to the death to defend our family honor!”

The Qi Family members behind him shouted one after another, ”The Qi Family of Wanhu, fight to the death, no retreat!”

”Your slogans are quite powerful,” Ye Jiansheng said with a smile. ”You are misunderstanding the situation; first of all, we have no intention of fighting to the death with the Qi Family. Furthermore, we are not here to help Su Yang. We’re simply here to see whether this battle is fair.”

”What do you mean?” The Third Ancestor asked sternly.

”Su Yang has not yet entered the Earthly Immortal Realm. According to the rules, Terrestrial Immortals should not interfere with battles between common people,” Ye Jiansheng said with a smile. ”So, we’re just here to help Su Yang stick to the rules. If the Qi Family’s Terrestrial Immortals do not intervene, then even if Su Yang dies here, we will absolutely not get involved. But if the Qi Family’s Terrestrial Immortals do take action, then we absolutely cannot allow such a thing to happen!”

Su Yang couldn’t help but laugh. After all was said and done, Ye Jiansheng and Lian Wanxiong had come to help him.

The faces of the Qi Family members all changed. This was obvious. If the Qi Family could defeat Su Yang, would they need Terrestrial Immortals to take action? It was clearly because they couldn’t defeat him that they wanted the Terrestrial Immortals to intervene.

”Ye Jiansheng, is it up to you to dictate what the Qi Family should do and how we should do it?” The Third Ancestor shouted furiously. ”Besides, Terrestrial Immortals might not be allowed to kill ordinary people, but that doesn’t mean they can’t attack or imprison them. We’re just imprisoning him; this doesn’t break any rules. What’s wrong with that? Do you think you’re the Law Enforcers or the Heavenly Court to have any right to point fingers here?”

”You’re right, whatever your Qi Family wants to do and how you want to do it, that’s your own business and indeed we cannot interfere,” Ye Jiansheng slowly nodded, then suddenly said in a cold voice, ”Then what I, Ye Sword Saint, want to do and how I want to do it is also my own business. Does your Qi Family have any say in it? I just don’t want you Terrestrial Immortals to act against ordinary people. What about that?”

The Qi Family members were momentarily stunned. Ye Jiansheng was being too aggressive.

”Ye Jiansheng, are you sure you want to become an enemy of the Qi Family?” an elderly man shouted furiously.

Ye Jiansheng did not respond, but reached back and patted the Sword Box, from which a Longsword immediately flew out, arriving at Lake Heart Island in the blink of an eye. The Sword Qi was oppressive, causing the people below to shiver in fear.

”Even if I become an enemy of your Qi Family, what can you do!” Ye Jiansheng said coldly, ”Do you dare challenge my sword?”

The old man was gasping with fury but didn’t dare to utter a word. With Ye Jiansheng’s sword out, he knew that he was no match for Ye Jiansheng. If they really fought, his fate would be uncertain.

Terrestrial Immortals are not allowed to act against ordinary people, but Terrestrial Immortals killing Terrestrial Immortals, no one would interfere with that.

Should Ye Jiansheng want to kill him, it was estimated no one on the scene could stop him!

”Ye Jiansheng, do you really think that being powerful means you can abandon all reason?” The Third Ancestor shouted angrily. ”Do not forget, you are still not number one on the Heavenly List!”

”Is it I who am being unreasonable, or is it your Qi Family that’s being unreasonable?” Ye Jiansheng said coldly. ”Your Qi Family brags and bullies outside, and taking lives is acceptable. Now that someone has come to your door to claim their lives in return, you want to counter-kill him—is this the rationale of your Qi Family?”

The Third Ancestor shouted, ”Ye Jiansheng, it was this Su Yang who first killed a girl and a nephew of our Qi Family...”

Ye Jiansheng interrupted the Third Ancestor, ”That girl from your Qi Family has had at least a dozen lives on her hands. Your Qi Family’s nephew is not much better than his mother. And that Qi Zhian is even more overbearing, responsible for countless deaths. I have wanted to kill him with my own hands for many years, but I refrained due to the rules. Su Yang killing them this time, I find it justifiable. If your Qi Family defends them, that’s your own wrongdoing!”

Angry, the Third Ancestor retorted, ”How many people they have killed should be avenged by the families of those people. What does it have to do with this Su person? What right does he have to interfere with this matter!”

”I knew you Qi Family members would say something so shameless...” Ye Jiansheng laughed heartily, ”In that case, I might as well kill a few of you old immortals now, and let your Qi Family come seek revenge from us later, right?”

The faces of the five Qi Family Earth Immortals changed as they realized that united with Lian Wanxiong, they indeed would not be able to defeat Ye Jiansheng. Were they to fight, they might suffer heavy casualties.

”Ye Jiansheng, our Qi Family has no grudge with you. Why must you treat us this way?” another elder asked urgently.

”So you know the words ’no grudge, no enmity’!” Ye Jiansheng said coldly, ”Those killed by Qi Zhian ... are they truly deeply at odds and must die? When Su Yang comes for revenge, you say these people have nothing to do with him, he has no reason to kill. But those originally killed by Qi Zhian, were they involved with your Qi Family? Do you have the right to kill them? Dealing with you shameless people, why bother discussing reason at all? I want to kill you now, what can you do?”

The Qi Family members’ expressions became extremely ugly. How strong the Qi Family of Wanhu was, yet never before had they been stepped on and reprimanded this way.

However, faced with the formidable Ye Jiansheng, they were indeed unable to retort.

The Third Ancestor bit his teeth but ultimately had no reply to give. In fact, the Qi Family had been domineering and unchallenged for years, never considering whether their actions were right or wrong. Now, scolded by Ye Jiansheng like this, they couldn’t help but wonder if what they had done was indeed excessive.
