Chapter 729 - 4: Objection Overruled
Murakumo Chikawa saw Chen Tang boldly entering and dared not underestimate him for a moment, surveying around without finding anything unusual.
Shen Che kept signaling Chen Tang with his eyes, but the latter seemed oblivious.
"No need to look, I came alone."
Chen Tang noticed the thoughts of Murakumo Chikawa and Amaterasu Senno and asked with a smile, "What are you discussing? Mind sharing?"
"Why are you here?"
Shen Che’s expression was grave as he whispered, "Can’t you tell something’s wrong here?"
"What’s wrong? Aren’t you discussing something? I came just in time to take a look."
Chen Tang said, "I have other matters as well. Once I’m done here, I’ll have to leave."
"Hehe."
Murakumo Chikawa giggled lightly and said, "Wanting to discuss things at the same table with us, you truly are a remarkable young man."
Amaterasu Senno, with a smirk, asked, "There will no longer be a Chuansi Country in the Celestial Cauldron Continent in the future. We are discussing the ownership of the Nine Cities of Western Sichuan. Young man, any thoughts?"
Amaterasu Senno’s question was clearly tinged with mockery.
Chen Tang seemed not to notice, pondering seriously, which made the others inwardly sneer.
After a moment of contemplation, Chen Tang said, "I think that’s unnecessary trouble. Not only is Chuansi Country irrelevant, but the North Sea, Amaterasu, and Moonlit Night’s Three Nations also need not exist. In the future, there will only be the Celestial Cauldron Continent. What do you all think?"
"Hahahaha!"
Murakumo Chikawa laughed loudly and said, "It’s been a long time since I’ve laughed like this. Young man, you truly are amusing."
Moon Night Warehouse just stared coldly at Chen Tang.
In his eyes, Chen Tang was already a dead man.
He was just thinking about how to kill Chen Tang.
Killing him with a single sword would be too easy for him!
"Hehe."
Even Amaterasu Senno couldn’t help but laugh and asked, "Since there are no Four Nations and the Celestial Cauldron Continent is unified, who will be the Continent Lord? You?"
"Count me out."
Chen Tang waved his hand and said, "I’m not from around here, and I’m too lazy to manage this place."
Yuan Qingmo and Mei Yingxue were coming over, and Chen Tang had already thought of another place to go.
Pausing, Chen Tang looked at Shen Che and said, "You be the Continent Lord of the Celestial Cauldron Continent."
Shen Che was speechless.
What is this kid babbling about?
"Hehe!"
Murakumo Chikawa and Amaterasu Senno exchanged glances and chuckled softly.
In the hall, people gathered at the door burst into laughter upon hearing this.
Chen Tang also laughed.
The next moment, a gleam of blade light flashed through the hall.
No one saw how this blade light appeared.
It was too fast.
It flashed and disappeared.
It was so fast that everyone even thought it was just their imagination.
But soon everyone felt a chill to the bone.
The temperature in Murakumo Hall plummeted.
Everyone’s smiles froze on their faces.
Countless gazes fell on Murakumo Chikawa, Amaterasu Senno, and Moon Night Warehouse.
Everyone seemed to have seen something, and they were all terrified, their hair standing on end!
Murakumo Chikawa’s expression was serious, his heart already in turmoil!
He is a Grandmaster and had just seen it.
That cold light came from Chen Tang’s hand.
But even he didn’t clearly see how Chen Tang drew and sheathed the blade from his back.
It seemed that Chen Tang just moved slightly, and that terrifying blade light flashed in front of everyone!
Murakumo Chikawa felt a slight coolness in his throat.
He subconsciously reached out and touched it, then looked down.
His palm was stained with a trace of blood.
His neck seemed stiff, his gaze turning to Amaterasu Senno and Moon Night Warehouse beside him.
The expressions on the two’s faces were also filled with shock.
Moreover, a faint blood trace appeared on both their throats.
This wound was shallow, just barely breaking the skin and oozing a trace of blood.
But just a bit deeper, and all three of their throats would have been cut by a single stroke!
"You..."
Murakumo Chikawa wanted to say something, but found his voice trembling as soon as he opened his mouth.
Shen Che was dumbstruck on the side.
Two years no see, has Chen Tang cultivated to such a level?
Only then did Amaterasu Senno realize that the blade just now was Chen Tang’s show of force!
Able to slash open three throats with a single stroke, leaving only shallow wounds, such control, such power, surpassed killing all three with one strike, much more advanced!
The three of them had just brushed with the Ghost Gate!
Murakumo Chikawa and Amaterasu Senno suspected that Chen Tang might have some backup coming alone.
But they never thought, that backup was Chen Tang himself.
After all, this kid was only in his early twenties, far too young.
Two years ago, he was only fighting battles with peers like Murakumo Kyo and Amaterasu Chizuru.
Them being First Grade Grandmasters, how could they have regarded such a young man?
Still, they were unwilling in their hearts.
Just now, they hadn’t been prepared, underestimating Chen Tang.
Moreover, they hadn’t been able to unleash the Grandmaster’s Phenomenon.
If they had attacked with full force, it might not have been so.
Chen Tang stared at the three, calmly saying, "From now on, the Continent Lord of the Celestial Cauldron Continent will be Shen Che. My words are done, who agrees, who opposes?"
Moonlit Night Warehouse remained silent, slightly bowing his head, eyes flickering with cold light.
Hearing Chen Tang’s words, he directly unleashed the Grandmaster’s Phenomenon, drew his sword from his waist, and slashed towards Chen Tang, shouting, "I oppose!"
This sword was faster than lightning.
Behind Moonlit Night Warehouse, in the dim night, a full moon appeared.
The moonlight spilled onto the sword, reflecting a sinister glow!
With the augmentation of the Grandmaster’s Phenomenon, this sword’s power reached its peak.
But, that gleam of blade light appeared again.
Sword light, moonlight, Phenomenon, were instantly shattered by this blade light.
Puff!
The sword light, blade light, moonlight, all disappeared.
In midair, only a blood light remained.
And a massive head flying high.
The Moon Night Country’s Military Lord, First Grade Grandmaster Moonlit Night Warehouse, separated from body and head, killed with one stroke!
"Objection overruled."
Chen Tang said expressionlessly.
This time, he didn’t sheath his blade, but placed ’Eternal’ on the table in front.
With a clatter.
Startling Murakumo Chikawa and Amaterasu Senno, both shuddered.
Just now, they held a glimmer of hope, thinking they had let their guard down, allowing Chen Tang to strike successfully.
Witnessing Moonlit Night Warehouse’s death with their own eyes, the two were completely disheartened from resisting.
"Sea God Susa, Chizuru begs you, please don’t harm grandfather."
Amaterasu Chizuru, realizing, ran over, kneeling before Chen Tang, anxious, pitiful, and desperately pleading.
Pausing, Amaterasu Chizuru lightly bit her red lips, seemingly making a decision, and said, "As long as Susa-sama agrees, Chizuru is willing to serve by your side forever, obeying your every command."
After speaking, Amaterasu Chizuru didn’t know what else to say, lowering her head, not daring to meet Chen Tang’s gaze, her cheeks flushed.
Murakumo Kyo’s expression changed several times, also stepping forward, gritting his teeth, he said, "If the lord doesn’t mind, I, I can also..."
