The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 605: Battle with Shadow
Chapter 605: Chapter 605: Battle with Shadow
Ye Chenfeng, you little beast, you should realize by now that your attacks are completely ineffective against Feng" the War General, right? Why won’t you kneel down and kowtow obediently to us?" Huo" the War General roared with arrogant fury.
Ye Chenfeng, you should never have offended our Devouring Empire. You even killed Lei" the War General. Now, no matter how much you regret it, it’s too late," Dian" the War General immediately added with a smile.
Ye Chenfeng looked at Huo and Dian" the War Generals as if they were two idiots, casually shrugged his shoulders, and asked with a sneer, "Why should I regret? What do I have to regret?"
You little beast on the verge of death, your brain must be damaged," Huo" the War General scoffed with disdain, patting Feng" the War General on the shoulder and saying, "Feng, hurry up and break this little beast’s arms and legs. We can then redeem ourselves in front of the King."
However, as Huo" the War General patted Feng" the War General’s shoulder, Feng" the War General’s body stiffly fell to the ground, the spark of life already gone from his eyes. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
This time, the two remaining War Generals saw Feng" the War General inexplicably collapse to the ground. They could confirm that Feng" the War General was dead, but Feng" the War General’s strength had clearly risen to Level Ten Soul Force. How could he possibly be defeated by Ye Chenfeng with one move? This was an absurdity beyond reason, making it impossible for them to believe what was happening in front of them.
"It’s about time to send you two on your way. I have a lot of things to do tonight, and I don’t have the time to waste here with two fools."
Ye Chenfeng’s gloomy voice entered the ears of the two living War Generals, shocking them into awareness. Now, they could no longer afford to care about their dignity. With their strength no match for Ye Chenfeng, just as they were about to muster their energy to shout loudly, they heard two muffled "Bang! Bang!" noises coming from their heads, as Ye Chenfeng had slapped his palms directly onto their crown chakras.
The eyes of the two War Generals bulged enormously as fresh blood and brain matter ceaselessly bubbled out of their heads, sliding down their foreheads. ’Plop! Plop!’ the two bodies fell to the ground, clearly dead beyond doubt.
After dealing with the three War Generals, Ye Chenfeng left Feng" the War General’s room without a trace and securely closed the door. When he returned to Hei Hu’s room, he saw that the heads of Hei Hu, Hei Bao, and Hei She had been savagely severed, with Hei Xin and Hei Xiong’s hands stained with blood, evidently having personally dispatched the three traitors.
"Young Master Ye, did you take care of the three War Generals?" Wang Li asked with concern when he saw Ye Chenfeng entering the room.
After nodding, Ye Chenfeng patted Hei Xin on the shoulder reassuringly and said, "Hei Xin, get your emotions in check. What comes next is the focus of our night’s work. The three War Generals who posed a threat to us in the Devouring Empire have gone to meet King Yama. Now, only Shadow and the King remain. I am confident in taking care of Shadow, but the King’s depth of strength is something I have yet to discern. Assassinating the two of them won’t be easy, so we must prepare for a head-on confrontation."
Hei Xin cast aside all his negative emotions, and at this moment, he finally had the opportunity to avenge his parents. Killing the Devouring Empire’s supreme ruler, the King, would turn the empire into a disorganized sandpile. In other words, with the King’s death, the Devouring Empire would cease to exist.
"Ye Chenfeng, what should be our next step?" Hei Xin asked.
Ye Chenfeng replied, "When the Devouring Empire’s grand event finished, I saw the King and Shadow heading towards a room on the side of the hall. I think they’re still there. The only way now is to storm the dragon’s den. I estimate there are miniature cameras both inside and outside the great hall that are hard to detect, so stealthily entering the great hall is simply impossible."
"If no one has a problem with that, let’s move now. You must all be prepared for a nine-in-ten chance of death."
As soon as Ye Chenfeng finished speaking, Qin Yi immediately said, "Boss, we’ve followed you this far, what objections could we possibly have?"
...
Seeing that Wang Li, Hei Xin, and the others had no objections, Ye Chenfeng took the lead and left Hei Hu’s room, step by step, heading towards the castle’s great hall.
Just as Ye Chenfeng had predicted, the great hall was monitored by cameras inside and out. Apart from there, no other places in the castle had cameras installed.
There was a very large room on the side of the great hall, with a floor area comparable to that of the hall itself. The room was filled with various electronic devices. The King sat on a sofa inside the room, while Shadow was seated in front of a liquid crystal display not far away. At that moment, the screen was showing Ye Chenfeng and his companions.
Immediately, Shadow respectfully approached the King and said, "Your Majesty, our person in charge in Country M, Fern, and his subordinates have been skulking around outside the hall. It seems they are heading this way."
Upon hearing this, the King pressed a button on the coffee table before him, and a liquid crystal screen rose instantly from within the table. After quietly observing the "Fern" on the screen for a moment, the King mused, "I suspect these people are not Fern and his men but rather Ye Chenfeng and Hei Xin’s party. Since they want to come to us, why shouldn’t we welcome them? We need not take the trouble to search for them."
After speaking, the King pressed another button on the coffee table, and the two firmly closed doors of the room swung open automatically.
Meanwhile.
Ye Chenfeng and the others had also entered the great hall. Noticing that the doors on the side were not shut, Ye Chenfeng guessed that the other party must be aware of their whereabouts. While carefully checking for traps in the surroundings, they walked into the room on the side of the hall.
As soon as Ye Chenfeng and his group entered the side room, what first met their eyes was an array of various electronic devices. While these devices may not have seemed surprising to Wang Li, Hei Xin, and the others, Ye Chenfeng grew increasingly uneasy inside. Such advanced electronic devices were utterly impossible to appear in this era; they were at least decades ahead, if not a century or more.
"Ye Chenfeng, welcome to my abode. What are your thoughts on my collection of electronic devices?" the King asked, looking at Ye Chenfeng about thirty meters away from him while sitting on the sofa.
Ye Chenfeng frowned and, without showing surprise that the King had guessed their identities, said, "Where did you get these electronic devices from?"
A disagreeable smile creased the King’s wrinkled face as he said, "You are quite impatient, young man. Is this how you question an elder? I will answer the mysteries in your mind soon enough, but only after Shadow captures you alive. Then I’ll have plenty of time to chat with you. I hear that you possess Peak Level Nine Soul Force? Then let me witness it today!"
"Shadow, take down Ye Chenfeng. As for the others, kill them without mercy," the King commanded the Shadow standing beside him.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Shadow replied reverently.
Shadow had been itching to capture Ye Chenfeng, especially since Ye Chenfeng and his companions had escaped from under his grasp the last time; it was a humiliation to him. He was determined to cleanse this stain on his honor tonight.
Seeing Shadow approaching, Ye Chenfeng said to Hei Xin and the others, "Move aside for me. I’ll deal with him."
To ensure a fatal blow, Ye Chenfeng still maintained his Soul Force at Peak Level Nine. He could clearly sense that Shadow’s Soul Force was at the Initial Stage of Level Ten. Fortunately, this was still within his ability to handle. However, Ye Chenfeng still couldn’t sense how powerful the King sitting on the sofa in the distance was?
For now, he had to deal with Shadow first, then focus on the wily old King.
"Ye Chenfeng, you’ve come straight into the lion’s den. I wonder how you plan to escape this time? Surrender now!" Shadow’s body circulated with Initial Stage Level Ten Soul Force.
Ye Chenfeng replied with a smile, "Last time, I asked you if you could capture me alive that night, and the result was we escaped from under your hand."
"This time, I have a choice for you. Will you capture me alive tonight, or shall I send you to Yama’s Palace for free?"
