Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1197: Chapter 1196: Killing as if It Were Nothing

”Kid, take your ten gold coins and get lost, leave your woman, otherwise you might lose your life!” The martial artist who tossed the gold coins said arrogantly and domineeringly.

”You guys... you’re too much...” Xiao Ling was so furious that she couldn’t help but curse.

”Too much? Little girl, you’re so cute and pure, I’ll let you know what too much really means later, how about the three of us show you together...” The sleazy man laughed lewdly.

”You...” Xiao Ling was so angry that she couldn’t say a word, almost exploding with rage.

At this moment, Ye Tianchen, who hadn’t said much all along, picked up the two gold coins on the table, looked at them and said, ”These ten gold coins are enough for a normal person to live for half a lifetime. It’s my first time seeing so many gold coins, this is really something good!”

”So you’re agreeing?” The sleazy man confidently smiled at Ye Tianchen and asked.

”Agree? How could I not agree? This is a good deal!” Ye Tianchen nodded seriously and said.

”You... hey, what do you mean by that? Are you out of your mind?” Xiao Ling couldn’t help but curse.

”It’s the truth, isn’t it? Besides, didn’t you just tell me to go find work and earn gold coins? Now we’re getting ten gold coins for free, that’s not easy!” Ye Tianchen deliberately looked at Xiao Ling earnestly and said.

”Hey, did you... did you not understand? These people are despicable scumbags, do you really want me to go... go...” Xiao Ling said, her face turning red with anger, almost unable to speak.

At this moment, a martial artist standing behind the sleazy man impatiently said to Ye Tianchen, ”Since you’ve agreed, take your ten gold coins and get lost, don’t waste our time here!”

Ye Tianchen coldly glanced at this martial artist, and suddenly a murderous aura surged from him. Even though he hadn’t revealed his cultivation realm, it sent a shiver down the spine of the three troublemaking martial artists, including the sleazy man, causing the sleazy man to be stunned before saying, ”Get lost, after I’m done with your woman, I’ll send her back, she’s still your woman...”

”I agree, but there’s one more condition...” Ye Tianchen showed an innocent smile and said.

”What condition?” The sleazy man asked coldly.

”It seems like ten gold coins aren’t enough!” Ye Tianchen chuckled and said.

”Hahaha, so you just want more gold coins? No problem, how about this: besides the ten gold coins on the table, I’ll give you an additional hundred gold coins, and I’ll cover the cost of this meal for you and your woman, how about that?” The sleazy man laughed heartily and said.

”Then please give me the hundred gold coins first.” Ye Tianchen still smiled and said.

The sleazy man was taken aback for a moment and then gestured for the martial artist behind him to hand over another hundred gold coins to Ye Tianchen. At this time, onlookers who were watching the scene were also somewhat confused about what Ye Tianchen was doing. Some looked down on him, thinking that giving his woman to other men to play, not knowing which parts might be played with, was an extreme humiliation for a man, even more so than death; yet Ye Tianchen could tolerate it and even wanted more gold coins. Wasn’t this utterly lacking in blood and spirit? No one would respect a man like that, who would hand over his wife to be played with by others? They had never seen such a man before!

”Ye Tianchen, I must have misjudged you, hmph!” Xiao Ling angrily looked at Ye Tianchen and said.

”No way, didn’t you just say you wanted more gold coins? Look at how easy it is to get them! A hundred of them, do you know how long it would take to save up and work hard to get that many? It’s not bad to get them so easily!” Ye Tianchen chuckled and said.

”You...” Xiao Ling was at a loss for words, too angry to speak.

”Are you two done talking? Take the money and get lost, and bring that chick over here.” The sleazy man said impatiently.

”Hold on...” Ye Tianchen waved his hand and said.

”What’s the matter?” The sleazy man gritted his teeth and asked.

”I have one more request...” Ye Tianchen smiled and said.

”Are you messing with us? Any more requests from you and you’ll be dead.” A martial artist glared at Ye Tianchen and said harshly.

”No way, so violent. If you can’t meet my request, there’s no choice, let’s go!” Ye Tianchen smiled and said to Xiao Ling.

”Kid, I think you’re looking for death!” The sleazy man said fiercely.

Ye Tianchen frowned, coldly glanced at the sleazy man, and the murderous aura around him surged, incredibly cold, ”Actually, I have one simple condition, and that’s your lives...”

”Hm? Go, kill this ignorant brat for me.” The sleazy man reacted, speaking harshly, and at the same time, he made his move.

However, just as the sleazy man was about to act, a fist appeared in front of him—Ye Tianchen’s fist. The power was so immense that it completely frightened the sleazy man, causing him not to dare make a move. At this moment, the two gold coins on Ye Tianchen’s right hand had disappeared without a trace, vanishing into thin air, while the two young martial artists standing behind the sleazy man remained motionless, as if they were frozen in place.

”Bastard, what are you two doing? Get up there and kill him!” The sleazy man exclaimed in shock, quickly shouting.

But then, a thin trail of blood appeared on the foreheads of the two martial artists behind the sleazy man. The bloodstains expanded, becoming cracks and holes. Ultimately, the two martial artists’ heads exploded, leading to a complete destruction of body and soul. On the ground, two gold coins appeared, precisely the two that had vanished from Ye Tianchen’s right hand. This was a use of Great Divine Power; it can silently take a life in small measures or shake the heavens and earth, stunning the souls in grand measures.

”This...”

”What a powerful martial arts divine skill!”

”This is the usage of a powerful divine art, silently taking lives!”

”This kid doesn’t seem ordinary. He must have hidden his cultivation strength. Who exactly is he?”

”Someone’s dead, Linxian City won’t be quiet again!”

”This kid may have hidden strength, but he killed someone he shouldn’t have...”

”Someone he shouldn’t have killed? Could it be these three have frightening backgrounds?”

”If I am not mistaken, they should belong to Young Master Xinyang...”

”What? The subordinates of Young Master Xinyang, this... is a big problem!”

Around, some observing martial artists saw Ye Tianchen effortlessly kill the two martial artists behind the sleazy man and began discussing it, also mentioning someone named ”Young Master Xinyang,” whose identity was unknown...

”I just want your lives, why so reluctant? Didn’t I agree to your terms? You should agree to mine too, right? That’s fair, isn’t it?” Ye Tianchen smiled and said to the sleazy man.

”You... courting death!”

The sleazy man shouted loudly, suddenly unleashing all his power, shattering the table in front of Ye Tianchen. It seemed he already sensed Ye Tianchen’s power, not daring to show contempt, wanting to strike with full force to kill Ye Tianchen. Little did he know, as the sleazy man violently attempted to make his move, he suddenly felt a chill overcome him, as if bound by a powerful force, unable to move a bit.

”You... you... who are you exactly? Why hide such a strong cultivation?” The sleazy man couldn’t help but ask loudly.

”I just don’t like showing off, but since you met me, you must die!” Ye Tianchen said coldly.

”Die? Hahaha, you better find out about my background first, or else you’ll regret it!” Despite being scared, the sleazy man maintained confidence as he spoke.

”I won’t ask. You’ve provoked me, you must die!” Ye Tianchen replied calmly.

”You... such an overbearing person, I’m afraid you’ll pay a heavy price for your arrogance later. I am one of Young Master Xinyang’s men, I...”

Boom!

With a muffled sound, the sleazy man’s body turned to ashes, instantly crushed by Ye Tianchen’s powerful martial arts true qi. The surrounding people were stunned, none imagined that Ye Tianchen (ostensibly always weak, no different from an ordinary person) would suddenly strike and kill a late-stage peak Martial King level martial artist without resistance—what incredible prowess. At least several cultivation realms must be surpassed to achieve this.

Ye Tianchen stood up, glanced at the dumbfounded Xiao Ling, and said, ”Silly girl, how could I abandon you? Come on, let’s go!”

Xiao Ling snapped back, her eyes filled with a hint of gratitude, yet also a trace of anger. She glared at Ye Tianchen and said, ”You big bad guy, you’re too awful, you scared me!”

”Hehe, there’s nothing to do, playing around a bit is fine!” Ye Tianchen chuckled and said.

”Play, my foot!” Xiao Ling retorted angrily, heading towards the exit of the roast duck shop!

Ye Tianchen smiled slightly and followed her out, leaving behind a crowd of onlookers. Seeing the marks of three bodies on the ground, they were all pointing and discussing, especially the shop owner of the roast duck shop. Although he could stand firm and open his shop here, unafraid of martial artists dining without paying, and had powerful martial artists backing him up, he was also scared. He quickly instructed the waiter to send the guests off, preparing to shut down the shop in fear, testament to the dread inspired by the identities of the three people Ye Tianchen killed were not that simple...
