Chapter 433: Chapter 433 Abnormal Ideas We Don’t Understand

On the banks of Black River, five Martial Sect Realm practitioners without any backing changed their faces dramatically upon hearing the Bald Man’s proposal.

These five were an elder, two middle-aged men, and two women: one a dignified and mature beauty, the other a lovely and elegant girl. From their appearance, they seemed to be mother and daughter.

In total, there were nine Martial Sect Realm practitioners, the remaining four all accompanied by Martial Venerable powerhouses, like the two that Shi Feng and his group had seen before, who remained after Huang Yue’s death.

The man was at the Nine-star Martial Sect Realm, and the woman at the Eight-star Martial Sect Realm, but with a Three-star Martial Venerable standing beside them, the others naturally didn’t dare to target these two.

Those five, now preparing to quietly leave the area, found that many practitioners had gathered their gaze on them after hearing the Bald Man’s voice.

Without needing the Bald Man to speak again, an old man wielding a black iron staff, with white hair yet a ruddy complexion and spirited look, watched the five with a teasing glance, as if a cat watching a mouse, and in an odd tone, said,

"What’s the matter? Where do the five of you think you’re going? Have you forgotten our dear Bald Man’s proposal?"

This old man was a One-star Martial Venerable, and in the eyes of a Martial Venerable, Martial Sect and lower ranks were like the earth and the sky; to them, killing those not yet at the Martial Venerable level was no different from squashing ants.

As soon as the elder spoke, many Martial Venerables also looked on with amusement, eyes filled with mockery as they watched the five.

Then, the old man holding the black iron staff flashed forward, appearing in front of the Martial Sect Realm elder, with a cold smile on his lips.

"Zhao Qingyun, so it’s you!" the Martial Sect Realm elder hissed through clenched teeth when he recognized the man with the black iron staff.

"Ha ha, indeed, it is I, and you did not expect that, did you?" Zhao Qingyun, the Martial Venerable, bore a victor’s smile on his face.

"And you would never have guessed that I have already broken through to the Martial Venerable Realm, ha ha!" Zhao Qingyun’s face glowed with even more pride as he looked at the elder, still in the Nine-star Martial Sect Realm.

"Gentlemen!"

"Gentlemen!"

At that moment, the Martial Sect Realm elder straightened his face and said to the surrounding practitioners, "Gentlemen, I hail from the Heavenly Capital Empire, my name is Zhen Kang, and this Zhao Qingyun was once my master.

Yes, he was my teacher. Although we are not dissimilar in age, it was he who led me into Martial Arts, but it’s also this man with the heart of a beast who, on my thirtieth birthday, under the pretense of celebration, drugged me with poisoned wine, killed my children, and raped my beloved wife! This man is unworthy of humanity and deserves to be condemned by all!"

The elder named Zhen Kang pointed at Zhao Qingyun as he uttered these words, his teeth clenched in hatred and his whole body shaking with rage.

"Zhen Kang, you are seeking death! Nearing death and yet still oblivious! You dare to resist at this point!" Zhao Qingyun’s expression turned fierce as he said fiercely to Zhen Kang, his black iron staff channeling his formidable One-star Martial Venerable Power.

Just then, a melodious voice suddenly rose, interrupting Zhao Qingyun’s action, "Wait!"

Following the sound, gazes turned to find the source, and there they saw the speaker: a young man in white clothes with a stern expression.

Shi Feng and the Kirin King, having listened earlier, realized that the voice that had interrupted was none other than the odd Ning Cheng.

Following that, Ning Cheng, with a stern face, leisurely walked out, crossed through the crowd, and came to the side of the two elderly men. He seriously said to Zhao Qingyun who was at the Martial Venerable Realm, "Just now, under the proposal of Bald Man, didn’t everyone tacitly decide to send the warriors of the Martial Sect Realm as cannon fodder to their deaths? If you kill him, won’t that mean one less person to act as cannon fodder?"

Zhao Qingyun’s eyebrows slightly furrowed as he looked at Ning Cheng, realizing that this person was actually a One-star Martial King Realm Martial Artist!

Afterward, Zhao Qingyun spoke to Ning Cheng, "May I ask, who are you?" Although facing a Martial King Realm Martial Artist, Zhao Qingyun spoke with the tone of an equal. He felt that since Ning Cheng dared to step forward, approaching him, there was a possibility that the background of this Martial King Practitioner might not be simple.

"One-star Martial King Realm!"

"So there was a One-star Martial King Realm Martial Artist present all along!"

Everyone had begun searching for the Martial Sect Realm Martial Artists and had inadvertently overlooked Ning Cheng, who was in the Martial King Realm.

However, no one underestimated Ning Cheng; they, like Zhao Qingyun, felt that for him, as a Martial King Realm Martial Artist, to dare interfere with a Martial Venerable powerhouse and to speak in such a manner, this person must certainly have a strong backer.

Otherwise, in a situation where Martial Sects were being used as cannon fodder, a Martial King Martial Artist would certainly take advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention to slip away. Who would swagger out to meddle in other people’s business unless they had a powerful backing?

Many people were firm in their thoughts.

Next, Ning Cheng spoke to Zhao Qingyun, "Who I am is not important. What I want to know is whether I am right or wrong!" Ning Cheng’s tone gradually became more forceful, as if an upper-rank was interrogating a subordinate.

Ning Cheng’s tone, pitch, and demeanor further convinced the crowd of their thoughts.

As for Zhao Qingyun, he also stealthily looked around the crowd as if fearing that if he did not answer properly, some hidden powerhouse would strike him down right there.

After all, Zhao Qingyun was but a One-star Martial Venerable. In this crowd, there were several Two-star and Three-star Martial Venerables, and even one who was a Four-star Martial Venerate Realm powerhouse.

"Right! Right!" Immediately, Zhao Qingyun didn’t dare to delay and quickly replied to Ning Cheng.

"Since it’s right, then I’ll ask you, why do you still insist on killing him?" Seeing Zhao Qingyun’s answer, Ning Cheng pointed to the other elderly man, Zhen Kang.

"Because... because he is my enemy! My hatred has existed for more than thirty years. Over these thirty years, I’ve almost died at his hands several times. I want to eradicate him completely," said Zhao Qingyun.

"You’re acting out of personal vendetta, causing everyone to be unable to cross the river. Your actions are very inappropriate," Ning Cheng shook his head in dissatisfaction. Then, he turned to the crowd and said, "Gentlemen, I do have a proposition. Since these two are mortal enemies, how about we let them cross the river together, shall we?"

"What, you want me to cross the river with him!" Hearing Ning Cheng’s words, Zhao Qingyun was startled and pointed at Zhen Kang.

"Yes, exactly!" Ning Cheng nodded earnestly and said, "I am very eager to see what kind of scene it would turn out to be if two such long-standing mortal enemies died together. The more I think about it, the more I am filled with anticipation, even my heart is growing hot with excitement!"

Hearing Ning Cheng’s last words, the Kirin King turned to Shi Feng with a wry smile and whispered, "This freak, I thought he was going to do something serious, but he intervened for this? He is truly one twisted individual!"

His excitement is really not the same as ours!
