The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 178 - 178: 175: The Traitor of the Zhang Family_l

After about one hour, the current situation in the Zhang Family finally calmed down. Prisoners were divided into two groups, tightly controlled by the bandits and tied up.

“Protector Ming, this group of prisoners is willing to submit to our Horse-thief Gang. Hehe, those, are all stubborn and unwilling to surrender to us.” A bandit looked at the two groups of prisoners in front of him and clicked his tongue.

“Spare us, all the bandit lords, spare us.” There are always people with weak wills everywhere.

Of course, the Zhang Family is no exception. A large number of people are willing to surrender. At this moment, these people are kneeling on the ground, crying and begging for mercy, as if they are afraid that the people from the Horse-thief Gang would kill them.

“You…” Among those Zhang Family members who refused to surrender, Zhang Huaizhong shouted angrily, ‘You bunch of cowards! The Horse-thief Gang killed your families and destroyed the home left by your ancestors. And now you kneel before these criminals; have your consciences been eaten by dogs?”

A young man from the Zhang Family pointed at Zhang Huaizhong’s nose and scolded, “Zhang Huaizhong, do you think everyone is as stupid as you? In this world, being alive is always better than being dead! As long as these lords can spare my life, I am willing to do anything they ask.”

“You, you!” Zhang Huaizhong’s blood boiled with anger.

Meanwhile, Protector Ming stroked his chin and sneered, “It’s not a bad idea to use these people as cannon fodder when warring against the Feng and Murong Families. Besides, we are also short of some menial workers. These spineless ones won’t be of much use to our Red-clothed Gang, so let’s just throw them all to do hard labor. We just need more hands to gather resources from Monster Beast Mountain.”

Upon hearing this, the bandit replied, “Those who are willing to surrender to our Horse-thief Gang acknowledge current affairs, and Protector Ming appreciates you all. Just so happens, our Horse-thief Gang needs some menial workers to do hard labor. Whoever is willing can survive!”

“I am willing!”

“I am willing!”

One after another, those spineless ones jumped out.

“You bunch of cowards!” Zhang Huaizhong roared, his eyes bloodshot, and growled like an enraged beast.

“What cowards? We are now part of the Horse-thief Gang.” A young man from the Zhang Family laughed sarcastically. To win favor from the Horse-thief Gang, he continued, “Eldest Brother, this Zhang Family troublemaker is so noisy and disrespectful. Let me kill him for you.”

“Oh?”

The burly man from the Horse-thief Gang raised his eyebrow.

Killing one’s own clan member to survive? This has to be an interesting play.

He waved his hand with interest, “Kid, you have potential. Here, take this knife. Kill him, and from this moment on, you’ll be one of us in the Horse-thief Gang. Unlike them, you’ll not have to do hard labor.”

“Alright.” Hearing this, the young man’s eyes gleamed. He didn’t hesitate and got up.

Seeing that there were benefits to taking the initiative to kill one’s own clan member, the other spineless ones jumped out one after another: “I’m also willing to do it!”

“Give me a chance.”

Zhang Huaizhong clenched his teeth with anger.

All these spineless people, during the time the Zhang Family was in trouble, were hesitant and afraid, running away faster than anyone else. But when it comes to fighting against their own people now that the Horse-thief Gang has invaded, they act even faster and more brutally in their desperation to survive, doing whatever it takes.

“Zhang Shengyi, you dare try to kill me!” Zhang Huaizhong stared angrily.

Wasn’t this spineless young man the Zhang Shengyi who tried to play dirty tricks and fought Yang Chen during the Hundred Clans Trial Battle?

Zhang Shengyi was the second genius of the Zhang Family, always suppressed by Zhang Huaizhong. At this moment, he said viciously, “Zhang Huaizhong, you always showed off in front of me in the Zhang Family. Haha, did you always think you could suppress me? Did you think you were the number one genius of the Zhang Family? But look at you now! What can you do? You call me spineless, but now I can kill you, join the Horse-thief Gang, while you? You can’t do anything! What a crappy number one genius!”

As these words fell, Zhang Shengyi picked up the knife and was about to chop at Zhang Huaizhong’s neck.

But at the next moment, a sudden surge of powerful energy swept in, and with a bang, it invisibly hit Zhang Shengyi’s body, making him spit blood and retreat uncontrollably.

“Huh?”

All the Zhang Family members and the Horse-thief Gang who planned to kill their fellow clansmen were shocked.

Protector Ming, however, was quite shrewd, and immediately shouted, “Who is it? Come out!”

The person who made the move obviously didn’t intend to hide, and after taking action, revealed himself. Wasn’t it Yang Chen?

At this time, Yang Chen and Zhang Yingeruo appeared together, floating in midair, looking down below.

“It’s you, Yang Chen!” Protector Ming was slightly shocked, but soon calmed down: “Yang Chen, you little thief, you dare to show up in front of our Horse-thief Gang. You choose not to walk the path of heaven but insist on entering the gate of hell. Haha, it’s nice of you to come and die. You won’t be able to escape today.”

“Is that so? Going to die?” Yang Chen raised the corner of his mouth, “Originally, I came to the Zhang Family with the idea of cleaning up you bandits. But now it seems that you have all gathered together and saved me a lot of trouble. As for dying… That’s what your Second Master thought at first too.”

“You’ve seen the Second Master?” Protector Ming felt something off.

Yang Chen scoffed, then dragged the Second Master out and removed the hood covering his head, shouting, “Bandits of the Horse-thief Gang, take a look at who this is.”

The Second Master was tightly controlled by Yang Chen and felt utterly humiliated. But at this time, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and endure his anger.

Protecter Ming felt turbulent waves in his heart, then shouted, ‘Yang Chen, what have you done? Surrender your life!”

Yang Chen didn’t even bother to look at him; he knew someone else would take action.

Sure enough, those bodyguards hiding in the dark were more excited. In the blink of an eye, without exposing themselves, they instantly killed Protector Ming.

“The Protector is dead!” “Protector Ming is dead!”

“Run!”

These bandits dispersed in a panic, trying to escape.

However, how could they escape under Yang Chen’s watch?

Yang Chen swung his long spear, and in an instant, thousands of spear shadows enveloped the entire Zhang Family. In no time, the fleeing bandits fell one after another under the onslaught of thousands of spear shadows. In less than the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the once arrogant and domineering Horse-thief Gang had not a single member left.

Without a Spirit Martial Realm expert, these Body Refining Realm bandits could hardly pose any threat to Yang Chen..
