Eternal Saber

Chapter 52: Intimidation


Chen Tang glanced at the four people who stepped forward, three young men and one young woman.

Gou Dai was not among them, standing in the crowd with his arms crossed, watching the spectacle.

On the backs of their hands, there was a faint red sword sheath mark left by Qingmu's henchmen just now.

Chen Tang asked blandly, "How old are you all?"

"I'm seventeen!"

"Eighteen, what about it!"

"I'm nineteen!"

The youngest of these young men and women was sixteen, all standing tall and defiant, staring at Chen Tang provocatively.

Chen Tang asked, "At seventeen or eighteen, you're not that young. Haven't your families taught you any manners?"

"What did you say!"

"Do you really think you're the Young Hero Tiger Subduing? You're just a joke in Changze County!"

"Even if your father Chen Da'an came, he'd have to apologize to us obediently!"

The parents of the young men and women all retaliated, extending their arms, their fingers almost poking into Chen Tang's face, scolding and cursing.

In their eyes, Chen Tang was just a boy about the same age as their own children.

With the matter escalating so much, with so many adults present, what storm could a child whip up, daring to utter such nonsense!

Mei Yingxue watched Chen Tang, her face full of worry.

If she were in his place, even if she was in the right, she was afraid she wouldn't dare speak, let alone confront these people head-on.

"They're so fearless; it turns out you adults are the same."

Chen Tang looked at the adults and smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter if you don't teach them, the world will. But today, I'll teach them for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Tang suddenly stepped forward, instantly appearing in front of the four young men and women, reaching out to grab the wrists of two young men.

Crack!

"Ah!"

Accompanied by a scream, there was the terrifying sound of bones cracking!

The wrists of the two young men had been forcibly broken by Chen Tang!

The entire process was too fast and happened suddenly.

No one expected that, in such a situation, not only did Chen Tang not apologize or offer compensation, but he also dared to lay hands on them!

What's more, in their eyes, Chen Tang had been disabled with torn muscles.

Even Mei Nianzhi hadn't reacted.

The remaining young man and woman were so frightened by this scene that they were petrified.

But Chen Tang didn't stop.

With a sideways step, he broke another young man and woman's wrist!

The scene changed dramatically!

The youth who was just smiling suddenly showed his fangs!

In the blink of an eye, the wrists of all four young men were broken, and some of them were still in Chen Tang's grasp.

Only then did the crowd come to their senses, calling out as they rushed forward.

Each and every one of them was so furious they could tear Chen Tang to pieces!

"Anyone who dares to move, I'll kill them!"

Chen Tang shouted, gripping the necks of the young man and woman in each hand, like holding two chicks, his eyes fierce as he glared around, exuding a murderous aura!

When the crowd met his gaze, they broke into a cold sweat and unconsciously stopped in their tracks.

Most of the crowd was, after all, just ordinary people.

But Chen Tang was a Ninth Grade Martial Artist, who fought and killed beasts on Snow Ridge daily, with hands stained with human blood.

Such a murderous aura would chill even martial artists, let alone ordinary people!

Mei Nianzhi had intended to step forward to save the children, but now he too stopped.

"This boy has probably killed someone!"

Seeing Chen Tang's gaze and feeling the murderous aura, a thought flashed through Mei Nianzhi's mind.

What shocked him even more was that Chen Tang's strike just now was nothing like a cripple!

With just one move, he could break a wrist, showing considerable strength.

"What, what are you doing!"

"Quickly release my Ziqi!"

"Don't do anything rash!"

The middle-aged merchants and women were somewhat flustered, looking to Mei Nianzhi for help.

But Mei Nianzhi didn't dare make a rash move, only saying in a deep voice, "Chen Tang, release them first, let's discuss this calmly."

As if he didn't hear, Chen Tang just looked at the young man and woman in his grasp and slowly asked, "Who taught you to do this? Your parents?"

Those two young men and women, having their necks seized by Chen Tang, were too frightened to speak, not even daring to cry, just nodding instinctively.

Then, they hurriedly shook their heads.

"No, no, it wasn't."

"It was Brother Gou, Gou Dai told us to bring that maid here, and if she didn't comply, Brother Gou said to bring her over by force."

The crowd heard and roughly understood the reason behind it.

Chen Tang casually tossed the young man and woman toward Mei Nianzhi, without looking back, and shouted, "Sword!"

The fat old man was prepared, throwing Chen Tang's black-sheathed saber from the window.

Chen Tang intercepted it, gripping the handle in mid-air with a reverse grip.

Clang!

The blade unsheathed, gleaming coldly, dazzling the crowd so much that they squinted and involuntarily stepped back!

The crowd, initially eager to move, was now intimidated by Chen Tang's solitary figure and blade!

The guards of the Evil Wolf Gang grew tense, drawing their swords to block Gou Dai, protecting the Young Master.

"Oh dear, they're just kids, don't know any better, is this really necessary?"

"Indeed, indeed, why bicker with children, no need to draw blades, it's unnecessary."

Someone in the crowd hurried forward, trying to mediate.

Chen Tang's gaze swept over them, making the speakers avert their eyes and immediately shut up.

"I taught the children, now I'll teach the adults."

Chen Tang advanced with his saber, and in just a few steps, he dragged out a heavily made-up middle-aged woman from the crowd.

"Ahhhh!"

The middle-aged woman was pulled by Chen Tang by the hair, screaming in pain, struggling wildly.

Chen Tang kicked her down in front of Qingmu and Zhiwei, resting the saber on her neck, coldly saying, "You wretch, scream one more time, and I'll cut you!"

The middle-aged woman immediately fell silent, her hair disheveled, eyes wide with terror.

Mei Nianzhi, having just caught the two children, wanted to advance but was already too late.

"Weren't you the one who said they are poorly raised, without parents' discipline?"

Chen Tang slightly applied pressure with the saber, the blade cutting into the woman's skin, drawing blood.

The middle-aged woman felt it acutely, terrified out of her mind, nearly fainting.

"If you speak wrongly, do wrong, you must apologize. Has anyone taught you that?"

Chen Tang slightly leaned closer, saying in a ghostly voice.

"I, I was wrong!"

The middle-aged woman immediately said to Chen Tang, "Young brother, Young Hero Chen, don't hold it against me, I'm just a woman who knows nothing. Please, spare me."

"Not an apology to me."

Chen Tang remained expressionless.

The middle-aged woman quickly realized, turned to Zhiwei, bowing repeatedly, tearfully apologizing.

Zhiwei, who had been deeply wronged and in pain just now, couldn't say anything harsh seeing her like this, only hiding behind Qingmu, not looking at her.

"Scram!"

Chen Tang commanded curtly.

The middle-aged woman, as if receiving amnesty, hurried back to the crowd on her knees.

Her husband, seeing Chen Tang wielding a knife, and his menacing demeanor, didn't dare step forward, only fetching the middle-aged woman back as she returned.
