Chapter 457: Chapter 457 Revenge Battle Begins! (Fifth Update)
“Isn’t the Wei Family quite impressive? They’re all about oppression but can’t stand resistance. So what now? Have they chickened out? Is there anyone else out there willing to march to his demise? Maybe you should all come together and I’ll beat every single one of you to death. What say you? Hahahaha~~~~~” Huang Xiaolong tauntingly gazed at the members of the Wei Family.
There was a certain satisfaction in toying with them, akin to a cat playing with a mouse.
After destroying the Gao Family, Huang Xiaolong had unleashed his dark side. “Those who follow me prosper, those against me perish. Since the Wei Family seeks revenge, why not uproot them entirely!”
The dignity of the Yin Emperor, the only ghost envoy in the underworld, must not be infringed upon.
At this time, the members of the Wei Family had been utterly intimidated by Huang Xiaolong’s dominance, bowing their heads in humility.
Wei Zhen, despite being the most formidable semi-Grandmaster fighter in the Wei Family and believed invincible unless confronted by a Grandmaster, was unable to withstand even one blow from Huang Xiaolong. Who else dared to engage in combat? Wouldn’t that be suicidal?
Meanwhile, the surviving members of the Wei Family felt utterly humiliated!
Really humiliated!
The Wei Family, despite having the trio of Wei senior martial artists, superb Grandmaster fighters, was restricted by rules and couldn’t enter the ring!
These fighters could only stand by and watch Huang Xiaolong go on a rampage!
“A jumping clown! A nobody on the rise!” Wei Tianpeng, grinding his teeth until they creaked, harbored a deep hatred for Huang Xiaolong, but indeed, he couldn’t do anything about him.
“Hurry up!” Huang Xiaolong showed no mercy. “The first phase of the fistfight isn’t over yet. According to the rules, I can freely challenge any of these contestants on the ring…”
Rightfully, Huang Xiaolong had the qualifications to challenge any of the eligible fighters within the stadium, whether on or off the ring, participating in the first phase of the fistfight.
If one was too afraid to accept the challenge, he had to concede.
Conceding, however, came at a price!
The ownership of the martial arts academies!
Huang Xiaolong casually swept his gaze across the arena. The fighters on the ring, unless a Grandmaster, quickly shrank back and lowered their heads as soon as their eyes locked with Huang Xiaolong’s, as if afraid to be challenged.
Below the rank of Grandmaster, Huang Xiaolong was unrivaled!
Thus, in the first stage of the fistfight, Huang Xiaolong was a formidable weapon, sweeping all before him!
Huang Xiaolong not only managed to intimidate the Wei Family, but also the fighters from other families!
At this moment, tens of thousands of spectators in the stands from all corners, concentrated their attention onto Huang Xiaolong.
The first phase of the fistfight was held concurrently in different rings, meaning there were many fighters clashing at the same time. While there were many spectators in the stands, none exclusively focused on any particular fighter or fight.
However, Huang Xiaolong’s performance was too monstrous!
Without lifting a finger, he shattered all of Luo Shaoqing’s bones!
Scared a semi-Grandmaster witless by just counting to three!
Crushed a semi-Grandmaster underfoot with one simple stomp!
It was against the laws of nature!
The spectators, a mixture of high-ranking officials, tycoons, and dignitaries from across the country, each with significant backing, all turned their attention to Huang Xiaolong.
Without a doubt, Huang Xiaolong had become the focus of the entire stadium!
And the focal point of this year’s Ancient Fistfight Competition!
“What’s the matter? Is the Wei Family afraid to fight?” Huang Xiaolong voiced out discontentedly. “Do the rules of this Fistfight allow the challenged to shrink back like cowards, hiding and refusing to fight?”
“Enough!” Wei Tianpeng’s face darkened menacingly. His eyes flickered and then, with a wave of his hand, he ordered the clansmen behind. “Get me the deed to all of our Wei Family’s martial arts academies nationwide.”
“But…” One of the clansmen was frightened.
“Get them for me!” Wei Tianpeng ordered, not tolerating any dissent.
Very soon, the clansman returned with a thick pile of deeds for the martial arts academies and various business licenses.
With a gloomy look, Wei Tianpeng handed over all the property deeds and business licenses to Sun Hu. “Here, take this. They’re temporarily entrusted to your custody, Sun Family. These are all the martial art schools of our Wei Family! Yet, they’re a hot potato, your Sun Family… might get wiped out because of these deeds..hehehe~~~”
“This…this…” Sun Hu was feeling dizzy.
The Wei Family, is one of the powerhouses in the ancient martial arts circle, firmly seated in the second echelon. Its influence compared to the Sun Family’s, is like comparing day and night—like a bright moon in contrast to a firefly!
The Wei Family occupies many martial art schools across the nation, probably hundreds, and has set up numerous schools in many economically developed areas, making a fortune.
Now, Wei Tianpeng surprisingly handed over all martial arts schools under the name of the Wei Family to the Sun Family!
Sun Hu had no way to estimate the value of these martial art schools… Tens of billions? Hundreds of billions?
Unimaginable!
“Since the Wei Family is giving up the benefits, we won’t hesitate to take them~~~ Here, take them!” Huang Xiaolong cheerfully said to Sun Hu. “Don’t be afraid, take them. From now on, the Wei Family’s martial art schools belong to the Sun Family. Consider this as my betrothal gift to the Sun Family~~~ Sister Bai Hu, do you like this gift?”
Hearing this, Sun Wei’s head was spinning!
She was absolutely thrilled!
She was so happy that she felt she might die!
Huang Xiaolong, surprisingly gifted hundreds of martial arts schools under the Wei Family’s name, to the Sun Family as a betrothal gift!
This gift was outrageously lavish!
“Tha… tha… that’s fine…” Sun Hu’s hands were shaking wildly like a hen’s claw as he took the thick stack of property deeds and business licenses from Wei Tianpeng.
“Now, are we complying with the rules?” Wei Tianpeng gritted his teeth and said to Huang Xiaolong. “We, the Wei Family, have lost everything to the Sun Family. So, you should get down from the stage. But our martial arts schools won’t be easily taken over. Wait till we kill you, then annihilate all members of the Sun Family! With principal and interest, we’ll reclaim everything!”
Huang Xiaolong was pressing hard; Wei Tianpeng couldn’t send his people to their deaths anymore, therefore he forfeited all his assets to the Sun Family. With this move, Huang Xiaolong had no reason to pressurize the Wei Family anymore.
After all, the Wei Family had nothing more to lose.
However, Wei Tianpeng was in no hurry; these properties were just temporarily handed to the Sun Family, and could be reclaimed soon. Huang Xiaolong and the Sun Family were all going to perish! There was no doubt about it!
As thoughts flashed through his mind, Wei Tianpeng glanced at Huangfu Tusun, who was sitting cross-legged, still and silent like an ascetic monk, feeling more confident.
“Haha~~ idiot? Do you think you can take back what you’ve given out? Hahaha~~~ The Wei Family is bankrupt now~~~” Huang Xiaolong jumped down from the Wei Family’s stage, patted Sun Hu’s shoulder. “Don’t be nervous, don’t tremble. These are all Sun Family’s now. Quite a fortune, hahaha~~ Are you thrilled?”
“Little Long~~ Master Long… are these really, really belong to… belong to our Sun Family now? The Wei Family can’t reclaim them?” Sun Hu felt like he was dreaming.
“Of course.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled, then whispered. “All of the Wei Family are going to be exterminated, so you can comfortably take over the Wei Family’s assets.”
Soon, Huang Xiaolong and Sun Hu joined side by side, returning to the Sun Family’s stage.
By this time, the first phase of the ancient martial arts tournament was almost over.
All disputes over interests on each stage were also winding down.
The fighters who had been killed or injured were quickly cleared away.
All was quiet.
“Alright.” Uncle Yun stood up, microphone in hand, and announced loudly. “The first part of this year’s martial arts tournament is now over. Next, we move on to part two! The Revenge Fight! We, martial artists, love strife and fighting. But, we live in peaceful times now, unlike the old days when you could kill at will. Therefore, in our martial arts circle, we have our way of settling grudges. That is—the dueling stage!”
“Today, those who harbor grudges can take revenge. Whether to reconcile privately or engage in a full-blown fight, let’s settle all of it today! From tomorrow, let’s keep our urges in check and don’t do things that break the law or rules!”
“The second stage, the Revenge Fight, there’s no restriction on cultivation! Even Grandmasters can join! Let’s begin!”
As soon as the words fell, every man of the Wei Family on the stage fixed their cruel and mocking gaze on Huang Xiaolong.
“The net of heaven is wide and lax; yet nothing escapes its meshes. The moment of revenge has come! Hahaha~~~~~~!!!”
Wei Tianpeng burst into a hearty laugh, as if the frustrations and anger that had been suppressed for a long time could finally be vented. “Who will bring me that mongrel’s head?”
