Chapter 115 – Cursing Huang Wenyue!

“They’re actually surrounding and attacking an Expert of the Invincible Realm—this is insane!” someone exclaimed in shock.

“Did you see who the one being surrounded is?”

“I don’t recognize him!”

“It’s Huang Wenyue. How could you not know him?”

The tavern buzzed with voices as someone identified the person under siege.

“Huang Wenyue is being surrounded?!” Duan Hongde was startled, leaning out the window to look, his face filled with disbelief.

High in the sky, the battle was fierce. Streaks of Sword Light cut across the heavens, dazzlingly brilliant.

Huang Wenyue was besieged by several Experts of the Invincible Realm. Every Move aimed at his vital points, clearly intended to take his life.

Fighting alone against multiple opponents, Huang Wenyue struggled to defend himself, narrowly avoiding danger at every turn. It seemed he wouldn’t hold out much longer.

Xu Mentu glanced outside, then sneered as he looked at Ye Sheng, finding the situation rather amusing.

Ye Sheng had just pledged allegiance to Huang Wenyue, and now Huang Wenyue was surrounded by several Experts of the same level, trapped in a desperate situation!

If Huang Wenyue died, this kid would immediately lose his backer.

In the Shadow City Secret Realm, without a backer, survival would become much more difficult.

“Interesting!” Xu Mentu’s eyes crinkled with amusement, delighted to see Huang Wenyue under siege.

Beside him, Xu Xiao’an, after a moment of stunned silence, also grew excited, casting a somewhat gloating look at Ye Sheng.

Duan Hongde tried to reassure him, “Don’t worry, young friend. Huang Wenyue likely won’t die. Even if he does, you can always pledge allegiance to another Expert of the Invincible Realm.”

“Ye Sheng…” Duan Xiaojia looked at Ye Sheng with concern.

Ye Sheng sat upright, calmly picking up dishes with his chopsticks and savoring them. He didn’t even glance outside, as if completely unaware of the events unfolding beyond the window, appearing utterly composed!

Seeing this, Xu Mentu scoffed, assuming Ye Sheng was afraid.

…

High in the sky.

“Huang Wenyue, you can’t escape!”

One Expert of the Invincible Realm unleashed a palm strike, roaring with laughter that echoed deafeningly through the air.

Another Expert moved to block Huang Wenyue’s retreat from the side, sneering, “That’s right. Since you’ve delivered yourself to us, don’t even think about leaving!”

As he spoke, a Sword Radiance grazed Huang Wenyue’s shoulder, sending a spray of blood flying and causing Huang Wenyue to cry out in pain.

Huang Wenyue glared furiously at his attackers. “He Sankui, Dong Tiangong… you bastards… *&%#@&!”

Huang Wenyue cursed loudly.

He Sankui laughed heartily. The more Huang Wenyue cursed, the more excited he became, continuing his relentless assault.

“This is a rare opportunity. We must not let him escape,” Dong Tiangong said calmly. Though his demeanor appeared scholarly and gentle, his attacks were ruthless, each Move aimed to kill!

Huang Wenyue struggled to defend himself. It was no surprise—He Sankui, Dong Tiangong, and the others were all Experts of the same level as him.

Their Combat Power had all reached 700 times the norm!

Even among Experts of the Invincible Realm, they were renowned figures.

They already held grudges against him, so naturally, they were going all out to finish him off.

“How dare you act so recklessly? Don’t you know you’re breaking the rules by fighting in the Ghost Market of the Boundless Giant? Aren’t you afraid the Boundless Giant will intervene and suppress you?!”

Huang Wenyue shouted in reprimand.

Fighting was generally forbidden in Ghost Markets, as it was considered a provocation to the market’s owner. Yet He Sankui, Dong Tiangong, and the others seemed to disregard this, brazenly attacking him. This caught Huang Wenyue off guard, putting him at a disadvantage from the start.

If he had anticipated their disregard for the rules from the start, Huang Wenyue, with his cunning nature, would never have been so passive.

At that moment, a figure emerged from the void.

It was a young man with a sinister face, also an Invincible Realm expert. After appearing, he sneered at Huang Wenyue and loudly announced to the Ghost Market:

“Huang Wenyue, you stole two pieces of Mythical-grade Equipment from me and now you’re fleeing. How can you not allow me to apprehend you? Recovering stolen goods—this doesn’t count as breaking the rules of my Boundless Ghost Market!”

“Jiang Wentao? It’s you!” Huang Wenyue understood everything in an instant upon seeing the young man.

He had just taken out two pieces of Mythical-grade Equipment obtained in Ghostfire City to trade with him, but the deal fell through. He thought nothing of it and simply got up to leave.

Yet shortly after leaving, he was ambushed by several Invincible Realm experts, including He Sankui and Dong Tiangong.

He had been puzzled at first, but now, seeing Jiang Wentao, everything became clear.

“Jiang Wentao, you’re undermining the foundation of your Jiang Family! Who would dare come to your Boundless Ghost Market in the future if you act like this?”

Huang Wenyue’s eyes blazed with fury. Jiang Wentao and the Boundless Giant Jiang Wuya were of the same clan, both belonging to the Jiang Family lineage, and he was an outstanding talent among the younger generation!

Jiang Wentao chuckled darkly. “I’m apprehending a thief! You stole from me, and I’m not allowed to reclaim what’s mine? What kind of logic is that in this world? If you know what’s good for you, return my things, and I might spare your life! My Jiang Family is also extremely merciful!”

“Bah! Shameless! Utterly disgraceful… *&%￥#”

Huang Wenyue roared, cursing furiously, nearly spitting blood in anger. By now, he understood perfectly well: Jiang Wentao had grown greedy and wanted to seize his treasures. He Sankui, Dong Tiangong, and the others were merely going along with it, seizing the opportunity to eliminate him.

“Hmph! You don’t know what’s good for you!”

Jiang Wentao snorted coldly, his gaze shifting to He Sankui and Dong Tiangong. “Did you not eat? Your attacks are weak and feeble! Useless fools!”

Arrogant and overbearing, with the backing of a Giant Level powerhouse like Jiang Wuya, He Sankui and Dong Tiangong dared not retort, though their expressions turned unpleasant.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

By now, the commotion in the sky had naturally alarmed many people, including Huang Wenyue’s subordinates.

Upon seeing their leader surrounded and attacked, nearly a thousand figures soared into the air in an instant, intending to intervene and rescue Huang Wenyue.

“What are you doing?”

“Why are you ambushing our leader?!”

Many commanders with 500 times Combat Power roared in anger.

Among them, Chu Zong was especially furious, his two giant hammers crackling with lightning as he prepared to charge forward.

But he was stopped. “Don’t act rashly! He Sankui and the others are all Invincible Realm experts. Don’t throw your life away! And this is the Boundless Ghost Market—we’re on someone else’s turf!”

Chu Zong bellowed, “So we just watch our leader get ambushed?”

“Audacious!” Jiang Wentao’s cold eyes swept over them. “A bunch of ants, daring to cause trouble in my Jiang Family’s Ghost Market?”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In the Boundless Ghost Market, as Huang Wenyue’s thousand subordinates took to the air, over two thousand more figures rose from below, all clad in armor—experts from the Boundless Ghost Market.

After ascending, the two thousand-plus figures blocked Chu Zong and his group, facing off from a distance.

This left Chu Zong and the others frantic with worry, forced to watch helplessly as Huang Wenyue continued to be besieged by several Invincible Realm experts, unable to offer any assistance.

For a moment, thousands of people stood in confrontation in the sky.

Down in the Ghost Market, the crowd was buzzing with discussions.

“Things are getting out of hand!”

“If so many people start fighting, the entire Boundless Ghost Market will be stained with blood.”

“Don’t worry, with the Boundless Giant here, things won’t escalate. These people won’t dare to act. If anyone dies, it’ll only be Huang Wenyue.”

Someone spoke with an air of calm, as if already seeing the end of the matter—no major commotion would break out.
