The Prodigies War

Chapter 982 Jaw-Dropping Reversal

As soon as the voice died away, Pei Wen laughed instead, but out of anger.

At this point, that guy still dares to say something so wild.

She couldn’t help screaming, “Stupid and ignorant thing, we are the ones who are sending you to death...”

Shua!

Lin Xun vanished from where he stood.

Both Wei Tianxing and Wu Yuanchu’s countenances changed and they reacted with amazing speed, immediately standing in front of Gao Yunkun in a guarded stance.

Crack!

But just as they did that, they heard the cracking of bones, which was particularly ear-piercing in the silent atmosphere.

Then, they saw that, before Pei Wen had finished speaking, her neck was twisted, but the look of resentment and contempt lingered on her swollen face!

Pei Wen saw her vision darken, and an agonizing pain shot through her body. Not far away, Lin Xun was looking at her calmly, but his dark eyes were filled with cold-bloodedness.

Bang!

Then, her head drooped to one side, her body thud to the ground, and her breathing ceased.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye, from Wei Tianxing and Wu Yuanchu moving swiftly to protect Gao Yunkun to Lin Xun killing Pei Wen!

It was all unbelievably fast and happened before everyone knew it. No one thought that Lin Xun would attack so outrageously, showing not a hint of fear or hesitation to kill Pei Wen.

His directness, ruthlessness and mighty stance caught everyone by surprise.

Everyone stood stupefied. This is the Skyone Pavilion! How can the young man dare to kill in front of two half-step kings?

“Do you want to die?!” Gao Yunkun raged, his face contorting with murderous intent. “Pei Wen is my dearest maidservant, how dare you kill her right under my nose? How dare you!?” His ice-cold voice reverberated throughout the hall, shaking everyone’s mind.

“Maidservant?” Lin Xun was taken aback at first and then he sneered aloud, “Even a maidservant dared to be so domineering and arrogant. As expected, like servant, like master. Judging by your face, you also are not a person of good character.”

“Young master, there is no need to talk to him. I will get rid of the evil for you!” Wu Yuanchu stepped forward, his imposing bearing climbing steadily.

Instantly, the might of a half-step king swept the hall and filled every inch of air like a hurricane.

Then, there was a series of thuds and thumps. The guards and attendants fell limply to the ground, unable to bear the pressure.

The customers watching from the distance also cried out, stricken by the terrifying pressure. All their faces turned deathly pale.

“Little guy, I’m going to give you a chance, choose a way to die.” Wu Yuanchu’s beard flew upwards, showing the majesty of a half-step king.

Everyone trembled inwardly.

But only Xiaohe donned a look of pity upon hearing that. The old guy likely still doesn’t know about the many half-step kings who have died at the hands of Big Brother Lin Xun.

Lin Xun smiled, revealing his sparkly white teeth. “Old dog, based on what you said, I will also send you on your way to death!”

Shua!

With only one step he was already flying forward.

Everyone’s eyes widened in surprise. That’s a half-step king. Is that guy not afraid at all? How can he charge forward to meet him head-on?

Does he not want to live anymore?

“An ant trying to shake a tree!” Wu Yuanchu shot a disdainful glance at Lin Xun before jet-black light surged fiercely all over his body, and he aimed a palm strike at Lin Xun, who was rushing towards him, with lightning speed.

Bang!

When the two collided, dazzling brilliance erupted and flooded the area.

At the same time, a tragic scream filled the air.

While everyone thought that Lin Xun had met with an accident, they were astonished to find that Wu Yuanchu, a terrifying half-step king, was in mid-air, but his body seemed to be frozen and imprisoned, unable to move an inch.

Then, his stretched-out right arm ruptured to pieces, quickly followed by his chest sunken in with a bloody bowl-sized hole.

In the end, amidst a cry of anger and terror, his body exploded in a rain of blood, scattering in the void.

The blood rain shot everywhere, staining the air and the ground red, and also lashed the guards and attendants like a rainstorm.

Si!

Everyone in the audience gasped, aghast. They felt as if their souls had left their bodies.

In the blink of an eye, the youngster didn’t die, but Wu Yuanchu, an elder of the Skyone Pavilion, exploded to death!

Not even his corpse remained after his death, but instead it turned into remnants of flesh and blood!

So terrifying. He was a well-known half-step king in the Jade Flame City and he had helped the Skyone Pavilion resolve many issues over the years, but now, he exploded and died before he even touched a corner of his opponent’s clothes.

Who would believe that?

In truth, Wu Yuanchu’s death was not surprising.

In his eyes, Lin Xun was just a young man at the Cyclic Derivation Stage so he subconsciously treated him with contempt.

However, he likely never thought that, even before his death, he would be so unlucky to meet a peerless genius who was comparable to a demon god...

Given Lin Xun’s current cultivation base and strength, he could withstand the blows of six half-step kings from the Sacred Fire Sect without the help of Broken Blade. Based on that, how would Wu Yuanchu stand any chance against him?

Gao Yunkun’s pupils rapidly shrank, and his face blanched.

Wei Tianxing shuddered all over and almost cried out in shock. He desperately fought to keep his calm. He didn’t dare to think that if he made the move just now, would he...

Would he also be killed in one punch?

He panicked, realizing that he was doomed!

The other people in the hall were already petrified like clay statues, almost suffocating. They witnessed a half-step king being killed. The scene was traumatizing.

“Huh? What happened here!?” An imposing voice broke the palpable silence.

A middle-aged man in a green robe walked into the hall. His beard and hair were as dark as ink and his eyes flashed like lightning as he swept them across. His broad shoulders added a commanding presence to him.

Beside him stood a woman. It was precisely Miss Le, who looked slightly stunned by the scene before her.

“Father!” Gao Yunkun recovered from his panic and his spirits were immediately lifted when he saw the middle-aged man in the green robe.

At the same time, Wei Tianxing, the attendants and the guards bowed one after another.

The man was precisely Gao Tianyi, the boss of the Skyone Pavilion and also the head of the Gao Clan, an influential figure who had the ability to control the rain and clouds in the Jade Flame City.

“Tell me, what’s going on?” Gao Tianyi’s frown deepened when he saw the flesh and blood strewn across the floor. His eyelids twitched violently, and his face darkened.

“That person did it. He first killed my maidservant, and then he brutally slaughtered Elder Wu Yuanchu!” Gao Yunkun glowered at Lin Xun. “If you hadn’t come in time, that beast might have already killed me too!”

Gao Tianyi fixed his eyes on Lin Xun, anger visibly flowing through him like lava.

“Father, you saw everything. That beast is wild and vicious. If you don’t kill him, how can our Skyone Pavilion continue to stand in the city?” Gao Yunkun clamored.

But at this moment, Miss Le said calmly, “Interesting, my friend had just arrived at Skyone Pavilion, and he caused such a big matter and is even called wild and vicious by you, is...this how you treat a guest?”

Friend?

Gao Tian froze, his eyes widening in disbelief.

“Miss, what do you mean? Are you saying that I am lying?” Gao Yunkun said sullenly. If he hadn’t seen Miss Le walk in with his father, he would have lost his temper already.

“Shut up!”

Contrary to what everyone expected, Gao Tianyi’s brow clouded with anger as he snapped at Gao Yunkun.

Gao Yunkun stiffened and he almost couldn't believe his ears. This was his father, why did he...become like this?

For a moment, he was puzzled and aggrieved.

But then, a more unbelievable scene happened. He saw his father, the high and mighty head of the Gao Clan and the boss of the powerful Skyone Pavilion, offer an ashamed and apologetic smile at Lin Xun. “So you’re a friend of Miss Le. I’m really sorry. No matter who is right or wrong about what happened just now, I want to apologize to Young Master here!”

He bowed with a cupped first salute!

Suddenly, the hall turned dead silent, and everyone’s jaws dropped.

Everything that happened felt like a dream: it was too absurd and unbelievable. Who could imagine that Gao Tianyi, an influential figure who could cover the sky of Jade Flame City with one hand, would apologize to the culprit and murderer without so much as questioning him?

It was too unusual!

Regardless of how stupid someone was, they would realize that the one who prompted Gao Tianyi to react like this had to be Miss Le who was standing beside him.

But who was she?

How could one sentence from her make Gao Tianyi react so humbly?

Not only the spectators but even Lin Xun was also a little surprised. Only then did he realize that Miss Le’s identity was more complicated than he had imagined!

“Father! You...” Gao Yunkun was utterly confused.

“Wei Tianxing, escort this unworthy son away. If he dares to utter a word of nonsense again, he will be crippled!” Gao Tianyi commanded coldly.

In truth, his blood was heating up with anger. How can this unworthy son still not understand the situation?

“Wait a second, the matter is not settled yet. How can he leave?”

Miss Le’s words stopped Gao Tianyi dead.

A majestic figure like him was breaking out in a cold sweat. He quickly apologized with a smile, “Miss Le is right, it is outrageous that my unworthy son dared to offend your friend!”

He turned around abruptly and scolded, “Unworthy son, hurry up and kneel!”

“I...” Gao Yunkun said with a bewildered look on his face. He felt as if he wasn’t Gao Tianyi’s real son.

Bang!

Wei Tianxing, who was standing behind Gao Yunkun, had long realized the tricky situation.

So, he didn’t waver to send Gao Yunkun down on his knees with a slap. At the same time, he sent him a voice transmission. “Young Master, the patriarch is trying to save you. If you don’t correct your attitude, then he might have to punish you by killing you!”
