Chapter 173 Eastern Sea King
Chapter 173 Eastern Sea King
At this moment, inside the garden of the King of the Eastern Sea.
The two Great Grandmasters brought by the Eastern Lord had already collapsed on the ground, with crimson blood dripping from the corners of their mouths and their auras growing weaker by the moment.
Although they had not died yet, they had completely lost their ability to fight again.
They were indeed at the peak of Great Grandmasters, but compared to Chen Dao and He Feng, who had spent years battling others on the brink of life and death, they were still far too weak.
The Eastern Lord watched in disbelief as the two Great Grandmasters lay on the ground, his eyes filled with terror.
Grandmasters of such caliber, who could walk sideways throughout the Eastern Sea, were now pitifully beaten!
From the commencement of the fight to its conclusion, it only took two to three minutes!
Chen Dao, holding a large saber, walked emotionlessly toward the Eastern Lord.
The cold blade of the saber pressed against the Eastern Lord's neck, which finally snapped him out of his shock.
He immediately turned to He Feng and said earnestly, "Commander He, we have known each other. Please plead my case to the Northern Liao King!"
"I was blinded earlier. Please, can the Northern Liao King be magnanimous and give me another chance!"
Upon hearing this, He Feng glanced at him indifferently.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
The two had only met briefly at a meeting before; what familiarity was there to speak of?
It was impossible for He Feng to plead on his behalf to Ye Ling.
"To insult the lord, you deserve to die a thousand deaths!"
Chen Dao shouted furiously, his booming voice causing the Eastern Lord's ears to ring continuously.
"Lord, how should this man be dealt with?"
Chen Dao then looked at Ye Ling and asked.
Ye Ling glanced at the Eastern Lord and said indifferently, "Kill him."
"Yes, my lord!"
Chen Dao complied, and with a swift motion, a severed head rolled aside.
Su Rou, witnessing this scene, tightened her grip on Ye Ling's hands slightly.
Ye Ling shook his head and smiled, then immediately returned with Su Rou to the council hall.
Chen Dao and others also immediately followed.
Upon seeing Ye Ling and others re-enter the council hall, Wu Youwei's eyes flickered with fear.
A series of knocks sounded at the door.
Ye Ling immediately turned and opened the door, and standing outside was Su Rou.
"Brother Ye, breakfast is ready,"
Su Rou said softly.
Ye Ling nodded slightly, smiling as he said, "Let's go, let's eat together."
Saying this, he took Su Rou's hand without waiting for her reaction, and headed downstairs.
After breakfast, Ye Ling and the others chatted in the villa, idling away the time.
Since the King of the Eastern Sea had not yet returned, they indeed had nothing to do at the Eastern Sea Army's headquarters.
For the whole morning, no one sought out Ye Ling's group for any trouble, as the horrific death of the Eastern Lord the previous night was enough to deter anyone in the Eastern Sea Army's headquarters!
Just before lunchtime, three jeeps suddenly rushed into the town.
Hearing the urgent roar of the vehicles, He Feng raised an eyebrow and said in a deep voice, "Such an aggressive approach, I wonder which Lord or Commander of the Eastern Sea it could be? "
"Hehe, you guessed wrong, the person in these vehicles should be the King of the Eastern Sea,"
Ye Ling said with a light laugh.
Upon hearing this, Chen Dao immediately responded, "Isn't the King of the Eastern Sea supposed to be out at sea having fun? How could he come back so soon?"
"But then again, it makes sense. The Eastern Lord died right here in the headquarters of the Eastern Sea Army, if the King of the Eastern Sea hasn't received the news by now, it would be rather incompetent of him!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than an aged yet imperious voice came from outside the villa: "Which youngster dares to gossip about me, the King of the Eastern Sea, in my own territory?"
"It's not your place to judge whether I am competent or not, youngster!"
The voice grew closer, and everyone immediately stood up and looked toward the villa door.
In their view, an old man dressed in a purple-gold robe, his beard and hair all white, appeared at the door.
Though his beard and hair were white, the old man's facial expressions still retained an intensely overbearing presence.
Moreover, the old man's movements did not show any signs of aging; on the contrary, they carried a hint of the vigor of a dragon or tiger.
This old man was the King of the Eastern Sea—the ruler of the Eastern Waters!
Seeing that the other party had arrived, Chen Dao also immediately said, "This... King of the Eastern Sea, please don't take it to heart, I'm just a bit too blunt with my words... "
"Hehe, I'm not so narrow-minded!"
The King of the Eastern Sea glanced at him, then shouted into the villa, "Ye Ling, boy, the King himself is here, why don't you come out to receive me!"
