Chapter 117: Si Dao Zi, Death
"Kid, are you really going to make a move against me?"
"Don’t you understand the saying about leaving a line for others to see each other again?"
Looking at Si Dao Zi’s current state, Bai Chen sneered in disdain.
"When you attacked me and my people, why didn’t you think about leaving a line?"
"And now that I’m about to come for you, you want to talk reason?"
"When I tried to reason with you, you didn’t care; now that I ignore you, you’re suddenly interested in reasoning."
"Isn’t that just being shameless?"
Upon hearing Bai Chen’s words, Si Dao Zi’s face turned ashen.
After living in Lintai for so long, it was the first time someone called him shameless!
But now, under the eaves, he had to bow his head.
To avoid angering this madman Bai Chen, Si Dao Zi had to swallow his pride.
"I admit that what I did before was indeed wrong."
"But now you’ve killed someone; your anger has been released."
"Isn’t your companion alright? Why take it so far?"
Bai Chen let out a cold laugh.
He finally saw through Si Dao Zi.
Despite Si Dao Zi’s esteemed reputation in Jiangnan, he was essentially just a scoundrel.
And when dealing with such people, Bai Chen had his own methods.
"Is this your final word?"
Bai Chen’s tone was icy, devoid of any emotion.
Upon hearing Bai Chen’s words, Si Dao Zi’s face stiffened, and panic began to set in.
"Young man, I have many things; whatever you want, I can give you. There’s no need to wipe everyone out."
"And as far as I know, your family is just a second-rate family."
"If you want, with a single word from me, your family can become the top family in all of Jiangnan!"
"When it comes to knowledge of wind and water, I am first, and no one dares to claim second."
Seeing that Si Dao Zi still didn’t understand his determination, Bai Chen couldn’t be bothered to listen to any more nonsense and approached him directly.
Startled by Bai Chen’s sudden appearance, Si Dao Zi’s legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground.
"W-what do you want?"
"What do you think?" Bai Chen stared coldly at Si Dao Zi.
"I have money! I have a lot of money!"
"I also have treasures! So many treasures that you can hardly imagine!"
Si Dao Zi’s old face trembled, and his voice became strained.
At this moment, fear finally gripped his heart.
He realized that his life rested entirely in Bai Chen’s hands!
"Please spare me!"
Feeling the pressure from Bai Chen, Si Dao Zi dropped to his knees, begging for mercy.
Yang Xiao Tian, watching this scene, was completely shocked.
The famed Si Dao Zi was actually kneeling before Bai Chen, pleading for his life?
But thinking about the consequences of Si Dao Zi’s death for the Yang Family, Yang Xiao Tian’s face turned pale.
Seeing that Bai Chen seemed determined to kill, Yang Xiao Tian turned his gaze to Nan Yue Ran.
"Yue Ran! You have to talk to him!"
"If Si Dao Zi dies here, the Nan family will surely face ruin!"
"When that happens, many families will seek revenge against the Nan family! Think about your parents, your family!"
Upon hearing Yang Xiao Tian’s words, Nan Yue Ran was momentarily stunned.
What Yang Xiao Tian said made sense.
If Bai Chen killed Si Dao Zi, the Nan family would definitely suffer.
But…
Nan Yue Ran looked at Bai Chen’s back, her tone resolute.
"Bai Chen, do whatever you want! I will always support you!"
"Si Dao Zi attacked us first; he deserves to die!"
Bai Chen smiled slightly as he listened to Nan Yue Ran’s words.
Looking at Si Dao Zi, who was weeping and begging for mercy, Bai Chen didn’t hesitate and struck out at him with his palm.
As Si Dao Zi stared at the palm so close to him, he felt as if he could smell the scent of death.
At that moment, regret flooded his heart!
He had no real grudge against Bai Chen.
But for the sake of so-called fame, he had to avenge Wang Xuan Yi.
In truth, his connection with Wang Xuan Yi wasn’t deep at all!
His quest for revenge was merely to preserve his reputation.
Now, he never expected to kick a hard iron plate!
And the price he would pay was simple.
That was his life!
As Bai Chen’s palm came down, Si Dao Zi died on the spot.
No matter how powerful Si Dao Zi had been in Jiangnan, he had now become nothing but a fleeting memory.
"Devil! You are a devil!"
Yang Xiao Tian watched as Li Ming Bo and Si Dao Zi died right before his eyes.
His mental defenses shattered completely, and he went mad.
"You actually killed so many people! You will face retribution!"
Seeing the crazed Yang Xiao Tian, Bai Chen’s gaze turned completely cold.
He had never forgotten.
The true instigator behind all of this was only one person: Yang Xiao Tian!
If it weren’t for Yang Xiao Tian targeting him, none of this would have happened!
Moreover, if he had arrived just a moment later, Nan Shi Yue might have suffered a terrible fate.
If he hadn’t helped Nan Yue Ran restore her cultivation in advance, Nan Yue Ran wouldn’t have escaped.
Thinking of this, a chill ran through Bai Chen’s heart.
He looked at Yang Xiao Tian with eyes full of killing intent.
"Yang Xiao Tian, we have many grievances between us; it’s time to settle them today."
Hearing Bai Chen’s words, Yang Xiao Tian shivered.
"What… what are you going to do?!"
Listening to Yang Xiao Tian’s stammering, Bai Chen looked at him with indifference.
"Don’t think I don’t know that everything behind this is your arrangement."
"Those martial artists attacked Yue Ran and Shi Yue because they listened to you."
"And… if I hadn’t kept Nian Nian with me, you may have tried to harm her too!"
As he spoke, Bai Chen’s tone revealed a chilling coldness.
Yang Xiao Tian was startled by Bai Chen’s words.
He had only said those things to the martial artists; how did Bai Chen know?
But Bai Chen’s gaze made him feel extremely uneasy, leaving him no time to think about it.
His immediate concern was survival!
Yang Xiao Tian took a deep breath, regaining some of his rationality, and turned his gaze to Nan Yue Ran.
"Yue Ran, are you really going to be so ruthless? Are you going to kill me?"
Hearing Yang Xiao Tian’s words, Nan Yue Ran’s expression changed.
To be honest, even though there was a deep conflict between her and Yang Xiao Tian, she had never considered killing him.
Before this, Yang Xiao Tian and the Nan family had a good relationship.
The Yang Family had collaborated with the Nan family on many projects.
Even the marriage between Yang Ling and Nan Xuan Fei was partly due to Yang Xiao Tian’s efforts.
Otherwise, with the Yang family’s strength, they would never marry someone from a second-rate family.
Seeing the conflicted expression on Nan Yue Ran’s face, Yang Xiao Tian realized he had hit the mark.
"Yue Ran, for the sake of our past kindness, please spare my life this once."
Yang Xiao Tian spoke with tears streaming down his face, kneeling on the ground as he bowed to Nan Yue Ran.
Bai Chen coldly watched this scene.
He understood the turmoil in Nan Yue Ran’s heart, but he wouldn’t let Yang Xiao Tian escape so easily.
There was a way to make Yang Xiao Tian suffer more than death!
Bai Chen thought of the dark energy that had entered Yang Xiao Tian’s body earlier and looked at him with a playful expression.
Then he struck Yang Xiao Tian’s abdomen with a palm!
Yang Xiao Tian felt a sharp pain in his abdomen and thought Bai Chen was about to kill him, his face filled with panic.
Yet when he opened his eyes after a moment, he found he was still alive.
Just as Yang Xiao Tian was puzzled, he suddenly felt something, and his expression changed dramatically.
