The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 177 - 177: 174: Zhang Yingeruo l s Repayment_1

Indeed, these bandits were not just a mob by nature; they had all tasted blood on their swords. Although they were not elite, they were far from being a mob. However, in front of He Liancheng, the gap was apparent.

In the blink of an eye, no one in the Horse-thief Gang’s branch was left alive, except for the Second Master and Wang Dachui, who were now restrained by He Liancheng’s men and dared not even breathe heavily.

He Liancheng spoke indifferently, ‘Young Master Yang Chen, how should we deal with them? We leave it to you!”

Yang Chen glanced at Wang Dachui and the Second Master, the corners of his mouth curling up with a cold smile.

Seeing Yang Chen’s smile, both the Second Master and Wang Dachui trembled. They lost their previous arrogance, especially Wang Dachui, who shouted: “Yang Chen, I beg you to spare my life. If you spare me, I swear never to betray you. What happened today was forced upon me by the Horse-thief Gang. It was not my true intention, please believe me.”

Now that the situation was clear, Wang Dachui realized they were no match for the people Yang Chen brought. The Horse-thief Gang was nothing compared to them.

“If you are unhappy, I will kill those troublemakers of the Wang Family: Wang Lang, as well as the brothers Wang De and Wang Ren!” Wang Dachui pleaded with a numb scalp.

“What a cunning one, Wang Dachui! When you were crying and joining our Horse-thief Gang, where was this attitude? Yang Chen, listen to me: if you spare me, our Horse-thief Gang will definitely serve you unreservedly in the Great Wilderness! You command, and we’ll fight!” The Second Master quickly showed his loyalty when he saw that Wang Dachui might deceive Yang Chen.

Yang Chen sneered repeatedly, looking down on Wang Dachui even more while speaking without expression: “This Second Master will still be useful, but as for this Wang Dachui, kill him.”

A man who could even betray his own family members to stay alive was useless. It was merely one less scum in the world if he were to die.

“Alright then.” He Liancheng’s mouth curled up slightly.

Upon hearing that Yang Chen wanted to kill him, Wang Dachui cried out in fear, “Yang Chen, you can’t kill me!”

“Oh, I can’t kill you? Give me a reason why I shouldn’t. What exactly do you, Wang Dachui, have that can benefit me?” Yang Chen squinted his eyes and spoke coldly.

Fear spread through Wang Dachui’s heart: “There are still many properties and countless Spirit Stones in our Wang Family; I can give them all to you!”

“That reason is quite far-fetched…Spirit Stones, do you think I’m lacking them?” Yang Chen scoffed disdainfully, “Wang Dachui, do you know what I, Yang Chen, hate the most? It’s betrayal. Although you haven’t betrayed me, you have betrayed the entire Great Wilderness, which is even more hateful. As a member of the Hundred Clans of the Great Wilderness, you have colluded with the Horse-thief Gang, killing warriors of the Great Wilderness. To spare you would be a light punishment considering your actions. Do it.”

He Liancheng, no longer interested in listening to Wang Dachui’s excuses, acted swiftly. His True Qi surged, directly strangling Wang Dachui.

Wang Dachui had wanted to escape, but how could he have possibly escaped in front of He Liancheng?

By the time he came to his senses, Wang Dachui’s body had been blasted into nothingness.

Seeing this scene, the Second Master froze in fear, looking at Yang Chen as if he were a fierce tiger. He had no choice but to accept the fact that he was now a

lamb to be slaughtered!

“Second Master, do you know why I spared your life?” Yang Chen yawned lazily, speaking casually and carelessly.

“I’ll do whatever you say, whatever you say.” The Second Master was terrified, but he wasn’t stupid. He knew he had some use and would obey whatever Yang Chen said.

Yang Chen sneered repeatedly.

The Second Master was indeed unexpectedly spineless.

However, this wasn’t surprising; a group of local tyrants from the outside world who had come to the Great Wilderness were obviously bullies who preyed on the weak. Could one expect them to have backbone?

With this in mind, Yang Chen said, “Brother guards, keep a close eye on him. He will be of great use to me.”

“Yes, Young Master Yang Chen, what are you planning to do next? We brothers haven’t had enough fun yet, haha. This place is too enjoyable!” The guards laughed heartily.

Yang Chen’s mouth twitched a couple of times, then he turned to look at Zhang Yingeruo.

Zhang Yingeruo had been stealing glances at Yang Chen all along. When she saw him turn his gaze on her, she trembled slightly and immediately lowered her head, not daring to meet Yang Chen’s eyes. She stammered, “Ya-Young Master Yang.”

“Miss Zhang, now that these horse thieves who raided the Zhang Family haven’t scattered yet, I have caught their leader. Returning to the Zhang Family would solve their current problem. Come with me.”

Yang Chen spoke gently.

Hearing that Yang Chen wanted to rescue the Zhang Family, Zhang Yingeruo’s eyes filled with tears. Suddenly, she knelt before Yang Chen, “Young Master Yang, you have shown such great kindness and grace to me and my family. I have no way to repay you. From now on, my life belongs to you. Whether I

serve as your maid, concubine, or even a servant, I am willing. I hope you can give me a chance to repay you.”

It Yang Chen had only saved Zhang Yingeruo alone, that would be one thing.

But he was going to rescue the entire Zhang Family. Remembering how many people from the Zhang Family had been killed and tortured by the Horse-thief Gang, she felt her heart being torn apart, powerless to stop it. Now that Yang Chen had said such words, they touched her deeply. Even if she had to serve Yang Chen and do the most menial tasks, what difference did it make?

Yang Chen was startled upon seeing Zhang Yingeruo suddenly kneeling down, “Miss Zhang, you don’t have to… please get up. The Zhang Family has shown me kindness; there’s no need for this.”

Yang Chen used his True Qi to help Zhang Yingeruo up as he spoke.

Zhang Yingeruo had no choice but to get up as she couldn’t resist Yang Chen’s methods. Her pretty face flashed a hint of disappointment. She didn’t know why, but she would have preferred to stay by Yang Chen’s side, even if it was just to sneak a glance at him or do some hard work for him, it would be enough.

“Alright, time is of the essence. The longer we delay, the more lives may be lost. Miss Zhang, let’s go.” Yang Chen said.

With that said, Yang Chen didn’t delay any further, taking Zhang Yingeruo with him as they headed towards the Zhang Family..
