Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 680 - A Heated Verbal Exchange

Everyone knew that once he went to the Law Enforcement Hall under any pretext, he\'d be at their mercy— even the Killing God Chen Fan would be no exception.

None of them could predict Chen Fan\'s decision.

Going would be suicidal.

Refusing would be just as fatal.

“Why should I go back with you? Even as Law Enforcement Hall disciples, you owe me a clear explanation,” Chen Fan said indifferently, as calm as the sea.

“Hmph, you dared to fight in the True Martial City. That’s disregarding the city’s rules!” answered the green-robed man coldly.

“I’m new here and unfamiliar with the rules. Moreover, this isn’t exactly the True Martial City, is it? The True Martial City is over there,” Chen Fan said indifferently.

Annoyed, a Law Enforcement Hall disciple grabbed at Chen Fan and said, “Enough talk! You’re coming with us, whether you like it or not. This isn\'t a place for your sharp tongue!”

A sinister light gleamed in his palm as he grinned wickedly, intending to crush Chen Fan’s bones and drag him away.

“A trash overestimating his own capabilities!” Chen Fan reacted faster, launching a punch at him.

The disciple clearly hadn’t expected Chen Fan to resist, let alone strike back. His expression shifted immediately.

Although he was in the ninth-level Divine Nascent realm, Chen Fan had even defeated a half-step Heavenly Star realm expert. So, this was nothing.

Despite being one of the strongest at his level, the disciple knew he stood no chance against Chen Fan.

He dared to attack because of his status as a Law Enforcement Hall disciple. He had been sure that Chen Fan wouldn’t dare fight him back.

But his assumption didn’t align with reality, and he hesitated, shrinking back.

Alas, it was already too late.

Boom!

Crack!

The sickening sound of breaking bones echoed.

In an instant, the disciple’s arm was blown apart. Fresh blood spurted from the wound, and he let out miserable howls.

Boom, tch!

True primeval exploded under Chen Fan’s feet as he shot toward this Law Enforcement Hall disciple. He sent the disciple flying with a kick, and the air exploded under his feet.

“Stop!” shouted the leading green-robed man in fury.

Chen Fan didn’t even glance his way. His kick was like an ancient divine whip, striking the disciple mercilessly.

Immediately, the sounds of tendons tearing and bones snapping rang out. The Law Enforcement Hall disciple flew out like a broken burlap sack, spewing large mouthfuls of blood mixed with his organs.

The Law Enforcement Hall disciples roared, their murderous qi rising to the sky.

“Audacious!”

“Insolence!”

“You’re courting death!”

“How dare you strike out at our Law Enforcement Hall disciple!” shouted the leading green-robed man, seething. A sharp sword qi erupted from him, slicing through the air with a sharp whistle.

His face was ashen, overflowing with killing intent.

Chen Fan had just crippled one of his men right in front of him—a blatant insult, ignoring the authority of the Law Enforcement Hall.

This was humiliation!

Utter humiliation!

He had never suffered such humiliation since becoming a Law Enforcement Hall disciple of the True Martial Academy.

People usually cowered in fear when they saw them, terrified of being singled out.

But now, Chen Fan had crippled one of his men in front of him.

Rage!

Rage that could burn the heavens!

However, Chen Fan smiled coldly and said, “You’ve got more nerve than me. You actually tried to murder a new disciple right at the gates of True Martial City’s gates. By attacking me, you’re outright disregarding the academy rules! Do you all think you are the rules of the True Martial Academy?”

Chen Fan turned around to face the geniuses behind him and continued, “Everyone, we’re all top geniuses of our respective nations. We endured all kinds of difficulty and came all the way here, for what?

“To excel and become disciples of the True Martial Academy! We’re not animals; we’re geniuses.

“You all saw it earlier. Nie Xiao wanted to run me over, and they stood by. I defended myself, injured him, and now they want me dead. They clearly knew who I was and waited just for me.

“Today, it’s me. Tomorrow, it could be any one of you.

“And look at their audacity! They tried to murder me publicly in front of the True Martial City’s gates. I don’t know all the academy’s rules, but I’m pretty sure this isn’t one of them!”

“If people like this can become Law Enforcement Hall disciples and act as they please, how can we feel safe entering the True Martial Academy?

“What do they count for? They only entered the academy before us, yet they have the nerve to be so arrogant, even trying to murder a new disciple in broad daylight.

“Tsk tsk, if you ask me, it’s better not to join the True Martial Academy at all. Otherwise, we’ll just end up being bullied by these people, with our lives constantly at risk.”

Many of those who had kept their distance, simply watching the scene, felt uneasy hearing Chen Fan’s words.

That’s right. What kind of rules is this?

Can the Law Enforcement Hall disciples kill people at will?

The real cause of this incident was Nie Xiao trying to kill Chen Fan. Yet, instead of stopping him, the Law Enforcement Hall disciples moved against Chen Fan when he defended himself, intending to kill him. And it was clear they recognized him.

The crowd weren’t fools. They could see these disciples had come specifically to cause trouble for Chen Fan.

Originally, this had nothing to do with them. In fact, many had even been gloating over Chen Fan’s predicament, thinking one less competitor would benefit them.

But now that Chen Fan had pointed it out, the situation was different.

Today it was him. Who was to say it wouldn’t be them tomorrow?

They hadn’t even wholly joined the True Martial Academy yet. However, before they had even entered the True Martial City’s gates, the Law Enforcement Hall disciples were already murdering them. Was there still any safety for them to speak of?

Who knew what reason these people would come up with tomorrow to get rid of them as well!

Even if this world was one where the strong reigned supreme, in the sect, they couldn’t possibly disregard the rules and openly murder people.

If that was the case, was this still a sect? What difference was there between this and the bandits outside?
