<h4>Chapter 175: Dismissing the City Lord</h4>
Shen Tu Jianhe’s body was trembling.
Intolerable.
This was absolutely intolerable.
He already gave way for Li Fuchen, but Li Fuchen didn’t even try to interrogate Shen Tu Lang and killed him in one sword move.
So what if he was a direct disciple. Direct disciples could not step on his pride and dignity. What’s more, he had some connections in the Azure Water Sect too.
“You dare kill my nsman?!” Shen Tu Jianhe roared and drew his sword.
“So what if I killed him? This type of bastard should have died 1000 times. He is nothing but a vermin in this world. Of course, so is your Shen Tu n.” Li Fuchen didn’t leave any face for Shen Tu Jianhe.
“Bastard!”
With the 14th rank Scarlet me Mystic Technique revolving, a scarlet fire qi was released from Shen Tu Jianhe’s body.
With a shake of a sword,yers of sword lights surged at Li Fuchen.
Mystic ss, low-tier sword art – Layer Cliff Sword Style.
Shen Tu Jianhe had tediously practiced this sword art for 30 years and had long attained the perfection stage. With it’s execution, a regr high leveled Earth Realm martial artist would also be killed without any resistant.
“Break!”
Li Fuchen thrusted at the center point of theyers of sword light.
Boom!
As their sword qi shed, a sword qi storm brewed up in the spacious square of the city lord’s residence, carving thousand of marks on the ground.
In the midst of the storm, a shadow flew backwards and crashed into a huge tree, breaking it.
“No doubt he at the 5th level of the Earth Realm. He even cultivates the Scarlet me Mystic Technique.”
Li Fuchen wasn’t surprised. If he were tobined the strength of the 13th rank True Inferno Technique, scarlet fire technique intent, and meteor sword intent, he still wouldn’t be a match for Shen Tu Jianhe. After all, Shen Tu Jianhe was at the 5th of the level Earth Realm, 4 levels higher than him.
“He got repelled.”
The city lord’s supporters were in delight, while Li Xiaodie was in fear.
“Li Fuchen, today I shall let you know what a level gap is!” Shen Tu Jianhe tapped his feet on the ground and shot out like an arrow, dashing at Li Fuchen.
“Shen Tu Jianhe, don’t be too happy. I have yet to go all out yet. Activate!”
Activating the Mystical Dragon Secret Technique, the true inferno qi in Li Fuchen’s body was transmuted into mystical dragon qi.
The mystical dragon qi was extremely dense, like magma, boiling in Li Fuchen’s body.
At the same time, a realistic qi presence burst forth and shrouded Shen Tu Jianhe.
Shen Tu Jianhe’s expression turned into that of shock. With his senses, he could feel a heat wave surging from the center of Li Fuchen. It shed with his own qi and he was utterly defeated. Under the shroud of the heat wave, Shen Tu Jianhe felt his body be a few folds heavier. He didn’t feel as agile anymore and the surface of his skin began to feel traces of a zing heat.
“How can his qi presence be so strong?” Shen Tu Jianhe couldn’t find any exnation.
Qi presences were separated into two types, qi aura and spirit will.
The qi aura was rted to one’s qi. The higher the cultivation level, the stronger the cultivation technique, the more terrifying the qi aura.
The spirit will was rted to one’s cultivation realm. The higher the cultivation realm, the stronger spirit will. Of course, some people were born with an innately strong spirit will.
Li Fuchen’s spirit will was originally normal. But the year that he lost his talents, his soul spirit would feel like it was being torn apart whenever he tried to cultivate. It tempered his spirit will to be strong as steel. Afterwards, with the golden amulet metamorphing his soul spirit, his soul spirit turn from normal steel into a precious metal. Not only was it tough and unbreakable, it was like a de waiting to be reveal, filled with ‘killing power’.
In addition to that, within the Mystical Dragon Secret Technique,contained ‘dragon prowess’. With so many variables stacking together, Li Fuchen’s qi presence was even more exceptional than his physical ability.
“Defeat!”
A blinding sword light broke the qi protection of Shen Tu Jianhe and prated his body.
Blood spurted out as Shen Tu Jianhe was sted backwards and sunk into the thick walls.
The situation turned around so quickly, everyone wasn’t able to react in time.
By the time they reacted, Shen Tu Jianhe was already seriously injured.
The supporters of the city lord’s residence had a realization. They realized that from now on, Shen Tu Jianhe was no longer the skies of Cloud Mist City. It was an unknown whether the Shen Tu n could even continue to exist.
No one dared to say anything. No one dared to even send a hateful re at Li Fuchen.
Direct disciples could not be disobeyed. To disobey a direct disciple was to disobey the Azure Water Sect, and the consequence was eradication.
“Fuchen ge, thank you.” Li Xiaodie mumbled to herself.
In the eyes of others, Li Fuchen was an unscble wall. But in her eyes, Li Fuchen was like the morning sun, providing her limitless warmth, so much so that her grief hads turn slightly better.
Retrieving the gold ss direct disciple tablet, Li Fuchen dered, “I, an Azure Water Sect’s gold ss direct disciple dere; from today onwards, Shen Tu Jianhe will be dismissed from his duties as Cloud Mist City’s lord. In three day, all Shen Tu nsmen will have to move out of the city lord’s residence. Anyone who disobeys the order will be in without mercy.”
A direct disciple’s status was esteemed. But a gold ss direct disciple’s status was even more superior.
Out of the several hundred thousand members of the Azure Water Sect, only 31 were gold ss direct disciples.
As a gold ss direct disciple, Li Fuchen had the authority to temporary suspend Shen Tu Jianhe as the city lord. This was the authority given to him by the sect.
Of course, the sect’s upper echelons would send someone toe investigate. If Li Fuchen was being unreasonable, Shen Tu Jianhe would be reinstated as the city lord and Li Fuchen would have to suffer serious punishments.
“Gold ss direct disciple?”
The conscious Shen Tu Jianhe fell into a daze.
Li Fuchen wasn’t a silver ss direct disciple, but a gold ss direct disciple.
For a moment, he felt his own world spin as he fainted.
Reaching his hand out to vacuum Shen Tu Lang’s head over, Li Fuchen said to Li Xiaodie, “We have Shen Tu Lang’s head as tribute. I think uncle will be able to rest in peace in the heavens. Lets go.”
“En!” Li Xiaodie nodded.
***
In just a single day, the news of Li Fuchen dismissing Shen Tu Jianhe’s city lord position spreaded like a storm. It travelled across all of Cloud Mist City immediately. News of Li Fuchen also got disseminated quickly.
Direct Disciple.
Gold ss direct disciple.
The dismissal of Li Tieshan’s patriarch position and pushing his father Li Tianhan back to the patriarch position.
Killing into the city lord’s residence. Killing a Shen Tu n’s house guest and inflicting serious injuries to Shen Tu Jianhe.
Finally dismissing the city lord’s position.
No matter which news it was, they were all equally shocking.
Like divine lightning from the nine heavens, it caused every Cloud Mist City citizen to be in a state of shock.
Those that suffered abuse from the Shen Tu n were all crying tears of joy.
As for the majority of the citizens, they began worshipping Li Fuchen.
Be a man like Li Fuchen. Even the city lord can be dismissed. Such prowess and dominance.
As for all those that offended the Li n and Li Fuchen. Each and everyone of them were in fear.
Especially the Guan n and Yang n.
These two ns had many conflicts with the Li n, and they weren’t small conflicts either.
The Yang n was in a state of dead silence.
Guan n was also in a state of dead silence.
The upper echelons of both ns were all in a worrisome state of mind.
The Guan n’s Patriarch, Guan Yue was now in so much regret that even his intestines were bruised.
The Guan n’s Founder, Guan Tong was depressed. During the day of the genius contest, he threaten Li Fuchen by sending a secret message to him. What should he do now?
