Chapter 482: Chapter 482 Threat

Madness!

Just over a pinch of suspicion, was he planning to unleash a massacre?

All Formation Masters were furiously indignant. At this critical moment of life and death, they could no longer hold back and began to reproach vocally.

"We are Formation Masters!"

"If you dare touch a single hair on us, the Formation Masters Association will surely level your Chen Family!"

"Let us go now, we won’t be doing this deal anymore!"

Mr. Chen sneered coldly and said lightly, "No one knew where you were going on your way here, and also, no one knows who you are working for! So, if I were to kill you all, how could the Formation Masters Association possibly know it was my doing?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Formation Masters instantly fell silent, then began trembling violently.

Fear!

It turned out that the Chen Family had already plotted to silence them all along; the so-called thief was just a pretext to reveal their murderous intent prematurely.

"You old dog of the Chen family, how dare you!" the elderly Formation Master trembled with anger. He had brought these people here, and now if they were to all fall here, he would not rest in peace even as a ghost.

Mr. Chen looked at him and said, "Then I’ll start with you."

Immediately, some people from the Chen Family came over and pinned the old Formation Master to the ground.

The old Formation Master was only at the Soul Nurturing realm, and he had no chance to resist, only to be slaughtered at their will.

"Are you coming out or not?" Mr. Chen scanned over the other Formation Masters. He was certain that the thief was not the old Formation Master—he was too old, and his identity was crystal clear.

Shi Hao sighed. He had returned intending to lend these Formation Masters a hand, but he hadn’t expected the Chen Family to strike so swiftly.

He stepped forward and smiled, "Here I am."

"Shi Hao!" the other Formation Masters hastily called out, all moved.

—To save the old Formation Master, Shi Hao was willing to selflessly become the "thief." What greatness!

"No, it’s me!"

"I am the thief!"

More Formation Masters stepped forward, each one boiling with righteous blood.

Shi Hao was puzzled. I’m not as noble as you think — yes, I did think about rescuing you, but now really isn’t the time to sacrifice myself.

Mr. Chen, however, looked displeased. He wanted the thief, not a display of your deeply sentimental loyalty!

"Kill!" he said to the family members holding down the old Formation Master.

The man from the Chen Family sneered and swung his palm toward the old Formation Master’s head.

"Hmph!" Shi Hao snorted lightly, and a mental shock launched, rushing toward the man from the Chen Family.

As the movement of the soul is not limited by time, the instant Shi Hao thought it, the mental shock had already struck.

The man from the Chen Family was merely at the Other Shore realm. Although he had easily subdued the old Formation Master, how could he withstand Shi Hao’s mental shock?

He immediately staggered and fainted.

The old Formation Master narrowly escaped disaster and couldn’t help but gasp for air repeatedly, tremendously relieved.

"So it really was you!" Mr. Chen’s gaze fixed on Shi Hao, his murderous aura boiling over.

To knock someone from the Other Shore realm unconscious with just a mental pressure surely had to be at the Self-Observation level.

It really was this lad!

Mr. Chen was somewhat surprised; he had really thought Shi Hao was just a hot-blooded young man when he stepped forward; who could have expected this?

He wasn’t the only one surprised; everyone else also gazed at Shi Hao with astonished eyes.

Shi Hao simply smiled, "I am here, what can you do to me?"

"Kill you!" Mr. Chen shouted lightly, his figure leaping forward, charging towards Shi Hao.

Shi Hao opened his Cloud Piercing Step beneath his feet. His speed was not slower than Mr. Chen’s. Why should he be afraid?

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As Mr. Chen pursued and attacked, confronting Shi Hao who possessed a domain seemed merely a waste of effort.

Which attack would hit? The two were not fighting face-to-face. Shi Hao’s speed was not inferior, and he was merely dodging, which he did effortlessly.

Mr. Chen’s repeated attacks missed, making him somewhat impatient.

He could now sense that Shi Hao’s cultivation was only at the Self-Observation realm, but the youngster had mastered a profound movement technique. His speed was comparable to his own, and his reaction speed was extremely fast, easily dodging whatever attack was thrown at him.

At this rate, how long would it take to hit him?

He shouted lightly, and a Royal Court materialized, the palace resembling a crouching Blood Wolf.

From Self-Observation to Founding King Court is the process of Dharma appearance transforming into a Royal Court. It appears to be a change of form on the surface, but in reality, it advances further in the mastery of Laws.

So, Mr. Chen’s first Dharma appearance formed in the Self-Observation was a Blood Wolf, and now having forged the Royal Court, it still maintained a great semblance.

Boom, he wielded the Royal Court, pressing it down towards Shi Hao.

This was on the level of the spirit, as long as it was within the range of the Soul Force, the thought would arrive instantly!

Whoosh, the Royal Court appeared above Shi Hao, then hundreds of Blood Wolves burst out from the palace, lunging towards Shi Hao.

All of these were Dharma appearances!

In Self-Observation, each realm could only cultivate one Dharma appearance, at most nine, but it was different once reaching the Founding King Court. Hundreds of Dharma appearances could be nurtured within one Royal Court, and their power was much stronger than during the Self-Observation time.

So, just from this point, Founding King Court absolutely crushes Self-Observation.

Shi Hao smiled, and his Sun Dharma Aspect appeared.

Hum, light covered thousands of miles, fire scorched the heavens.

"Ah—" Mr. Chen couldn’t help but grunt, he was horrified to find that half of his hundreds of Blood Wolf Dharma appearances were instantly incinerated!

Although, he could quickly restore the Dharma appearances with more nurturing, but he, a grand Founding King Court, holding the advantage in realm, quality, and quantity of Dharma appearances, was actually being defeated by a mere Self-Observation?

How could he accept this?

He stared in horror at Shi Hao’s Sun Dharma Aspect, its brilliance so dazzling that he was unwilling to look directly at it.

What kind of Dharma appearance was this? It was too overpowering!

He suddenly recalled that his own son’s weapons had been severely burned, likely destroyed by this Dharma appearance—even—

"Did you kill my son?" he asked.

Initially, with no body seen, there might have been a glimmer of hope, but now he dared not harbor such hopes anymore.

Shi Hao nodded, "Correct."

Mr. Chen’s eyes split with rage; he took a deep breath, and said, "Good! Good! Good! My son must be without a trace of bones remaining."

"If the mine wasn’t too severely destroyed, there should still be some ashes left," Shi Hao considered and said.

Damn, are you trying to comfort me?

Mr. Chen snorted and said, "Take down all those Formation Masters!"

"Yes." The people of the Chen Family immediately took action, subduing all the Formation Masters, and weapons were placed on their necks.

"Surrender unconditionally, and I will not kill them," Mr. Chen said. "Otherwise, you will watch them die before your eyes."

Shi Hao shook his head, "I’m not familiar with them, you’ve got the wrong idea."
