Looking at Luo Xingquan's head, bursting like a ripe watermelon, Song Anbang didn't react for a moment.

"Chen, you're going too far!"

When he came to his senses, his eyes were spitting fire, and every word he spoke seemed squeezed out from between his teeth.

"Oh? Now I'm going too far?"

Chen Xiao smiled disdainfully, "Chi Hao is just an honest kid. It's not his fault he became a vampire, but you caught him and locked him up here, without even giving him food. I wonder, wouldn't you say that's going too far?"

"You made those young men of the Tian Ce Army follow a useless, idiotic monk for special training, and even forced them to eat pig slop. Wouldn't you say that's going too far?"

"And Xiao Tian Ce has guarded the Northern Territory for decades, shedding blood and sweat for the country and its people, but just because of a small mistake, you're riding roughshod over him. I ask you, who exactly is going too far!"

Chen Xiao's words were like sharp swords, piercing Song Anbang's mouth, leaving him speechless.

"Alright, I see it now. Xiao Zhan hired you to deal with me, didn't he?"

Song Anbang said self-righteously.

What is this? This is judging a gentleman's heart with the mind of a petty person!

"But let me tell you, I, Song Anbang, am a member of the Song family, and I'm not afraid of you!"

Song Anbang rebuked sternly.

Chen Xiao was simply too lazy to argue and even more disinclined to explain.

"Come on, everyone says you, Chen Xiao, are invincible. Today, let me see just what you're capable of!"

Song Anbang took a step forward, his pupils swirling with qi, and arcs of purple electricity flickering faintly.

"Hah!"

With a roar, his body seemed to be shrouded in mist, and a purple single-edged blade, forged from pure qi, was held tightly in his hand.

Qi materialized into a weapon!

No wonder Xiao Zhan couldn't beat him. So Song Anbang was already a Martial Saint!

"Song Anbang, this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Chen. If you have a problem, come at me!"

Xiao Zhan leaped forward and stood in front of Song Anbang.

"Get out of my way, you defeated general. Stop pretending in front of me!"

Song Anbang looked at Xiao Zhan with disgust.

The former Xiao Zhan was an insurmountable mountain in his eyes.

But now, he could destroy him with a flip of his hand.

"If you want to fight Mr. Chen, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"

Xiao Zhan spoke with righteous indignation. He really wasn't pretending.

He just felt that this matter was entirely due to him, and he had to do something to prevent the conflict between Chen Xiao and Song Anbang.

As for whether he had the ability to do so, that was beyond his consideration.

That was always his way—unswervingly loyal!

"Since you're courting death, don't blame me for being ruthless. You're just a Martial Spirit; killing you is as easy as killing a chicken!"

Song Anbang raised the qi weapon in his hand, and the blade's aura overflowed.

Xiao Zhan summoned his xuanhuang qi, entering a spiritual state.

Knowing it was impossible, he still had to do it!

In this battle, he was betting his life and dignity!

"Xiao Zhan, go to hell!"

Song Anbang gritted his teeth.

The qi weapon transformed into thousands of blade shadows. A chill rose in Xiao Zhan's heart, and only four words remained in his mind—"My life is over!"

He had thought that fighting with his life would give him a chance.

But only now did he realize that his strength had fallen far behind Song Anbang.

However, the next moment.

Time seemed to freeze, and the blade shadows suddenly disappeared.

Song Anbang's face tightened, and his body shrunk into a ball. In less than a breath, the light completely disappeared from his eyes.

Bang—his head exploded, splattering brains and blood.

Xiao Zhan blinked, wiped the blood and brain matter from his face, his mind crashed, and he fell into a daze.

He didn't quite understand what had happened.

Until Chen Xiao's voice floated from behind him.

"Daring to act tough in front of me with your mere Martial Saint cultivation. You're really not afraid of death!"

Xiao Zhan understood then that Song Anbang had been killed by Chen Xiao, but he didn't know how Chen Xiao had done it.

He suddenly realized that Chen Xiao had become stronger again.

He knew that Chen Xiao was strong before, but he had some idea of how strong.

But now, he no longer knew how strong Chen Xiao was, to an unimaginable extent.

The difference was like a chasm in the sky.

No wonder he dared to kill his way to Dong Yang and slaughter the Dong Yang Emperor.

Not only Xiao Zhan, but even Chu Qingluan's face showed shock.

Because she realized that she hadn't seen Chen Xiao for just over a week, but Chen Xiao's strength had increased a lot again.

Is this person... really a person? Why can his strength improve so quickly?

You should know that after some people's strength reaches a certain level, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky to go one step further.

Looking at Chen Xiao, after reaching a certain level, he casually improved hundreds of feet.

It was really terrifying!

Liu Yu opened her mouth wide. She was different from the others.

Others were shocked by Chen Xiao's strength, but she was shocked that Chen Xiao had killed Song Anbang.

In other words, Chen Xiao killed the commander of the Tian Ce Army.

This crime was even comparable to treason.

She dreamed of Song Anbang leaving the Tian Ce Army, but even in her boldest dreams, she dared not dream of such a scene.

And this was obviously a nightmare.

In a daze, Xiao Zhan also thought of this, and even he was a little confused.

Song Anbang's death made him unable to digest it for a while.

As for the subsequent chain reaction, he dared not even think about it.

"Mr. Chen, I'm afraid you have to leave here."

Xiao Zhan said with a wry smile.

And what he meant by "here" was this country.

Secrets can't be kept forever, and the country would never tolerate such a thing.

But Chen Xiao spoke lightly as if he didn't understand the deeper meaning of his words, "I still have other things to do in the Northern Territory. Since the matter is not finished, I can't leave for the time being..."

"But Mr. Chen, it will be too late if you don't leave now..."

Xiao Zhan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, "Have you not realized how serious the consequences of this matter are?"

The corners of Chen Xiao's mouth rose. Of course, he had thought about some of the consequences that would bring him trouble.

But with his current ability, those troubles were not a big deal.

To put it bluntly, Chen Xiao now had the strength to fight against an entire country, but he didn't want to do that.

He believed that the people in the court would not push Chen Xiao to the opposite side of the country for the sake of Song Anbang, a dead man.

Everyone had different thoughts, and just then, a buzzing vibration suddenly came.

Looking for the source, they found it was the phone in Song Anbang's pocket ringing.

Xiao Zhan was upset and wanted to turn off the phone when he took it out.

But Chen Xiao frowned suddenly when he caught sight of the name displayed on the phone screen.

"Xiao Junshen, wait a moment!"
