Chapter 100: The Matter of Face
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“What do you mean?” The elder from the Ma family had reached his limit with the Martial Supervisor. He asked in a stern and impatient manner, showing signs of potential conflict.
“What did 1 mean?” The Martial Supervisor responded arrogantly. “Old Master Ma, it seems you don’t understand. Let me remind you that the item in your possession belongs to the empire, not to any specific family or individual.”
“So, these parasites from the ancient martial families, who have grown on the body of the empire, are so determined to destroy the foundation of the empire and claim things that don’t belong to them as their own. Don’t you find it troubling?”
“Bullshot! Do you think a purple-robed Martial Supervisor like you has the authority to intervene in this matter? Did you even bring your Martial Supervisor Order today?” The elder from the Ma family lost his temper completely and unleashed a string of curses.
“Of course, you people have schemed and taken what rightfully belongs to the empire. You are large and influential, and the higher authorities can’t rein you in. But have you ever considered the reputation of our Martial Supervisor Department? Do you think you can bully us just because you feel like it?” The purple-robed Martial Supervisor retorted with eloquence.
However, to Chu Qing, the Martial Supervisor’s words sounded fierce on the surface, but he seemed weak internally. However, this was not something Chu Qing needed to concern himself with. He was simply observing the situation.
When the Ma family elder heard this, his expression turned ugly. If the purple-robed Martial Supervisor’s actions were really tacitly approved by the Martial Supervisor Department, then this matter would be difficult to resolve. At the very least, it was not something that he, an errand boy, could resolve.
“Show me your Martial Supervisor Order,” the elder insisted, feeling helpless and resorting to this option.
If this person could present the Martial Supervisor Order, then the elder had no further argument. If not, then he would have to rely on his own means. The Martial Supervisor Order was the operational token of the Martial Supervisory Department, akin to search warrants and arrest warrants, but with much greater authority.
“Alright.” The purple-robed Martial Supervisor responded and walked towards the elder. When the two of them were less than five steps apart, the Martial Supervisor suddenly struck. His purple robe surged as he punched the elder’s chest.
The elder’s chest instantly crumbled to rhe heavy blow and he was beyond rescue. Chu Qing finally realized that rhe Martial Supervisor had been deliberately saying provocative words to lower the Ma family’s guard.
After succeeding in this attack, the remaining Ma family members could not react in time and were instantly defeated. They were defeated one by one by the purple-robed Martial Supervisor, who only suffered some light injuries.
Chu Qing watched the Martial Supervisor attack and secretly compared their combat strength. The conclusion he came to was that he was very difficult to deal with. Chu Qing had also seen many martial artists, such as Ye Chenxi, who cultivated the Palm Strike, and the direct descendants of the Ye family.
Chu Qing couldn’t help but feel that besides Mrs. Ye, there were very few individuals who could match the power of someone like the Martial Supervisor. However, for individuals like Ye Chenxi, it wouldn’t be a problem for the Martial Supervisor to take on a hundred opponents. Lt seemed that there was a clear hierarchy of strength among martial artists, and Chu Qing was eager to understand it.
In the battle that unfolded tonight, it was evident that the Martial Supervisor held the highest level of strength. However, if he were to face the Ma family head-on, even if he could secure a victory, it would likely be a hard-fought one. Hence , he resorted to this strategy instead.
After killing the Ma family, the Martial Supervisor walked to the Ma family’s car and opened the trunk, searching for something. Suddenly, he stiffened and suddenly turned his head. His gaze was like lightning as he looked straight at the shadow where Chu Qing was.
After being exposed, Chu Qing touched his nose. He didn’t expect this Martial Supervisor to be so vigilant. After discovering Chu Qing, the Martial Supervisor had already put down what he was doing and focused on gathering his aura to lock onto Chu Qing.
Chu Qing walked out of the shadows and said with a bitter expression, “Would you believe me if I said that I was just passing by?”
“I believe you, but you will have to die.” As the Martial Supervisor spoke, killing intent spewed out.
As Chu Qing was discovered, he realized that he was in trouble. He silently retreated, tiptoeing and hiding in the darkness once again, with rhe intention of making his escape. He had no desire to confront such a formidable adversary. There was simply no need for unnecessary risks.
Unfortunately, the Martial Supervisor refused to give up. Seeing that Chu Qing was about to escape, he shouted from behind, “1’11 remember your face. I won t forger ir.”
It was a blatant threat, but Chu Qing couldn’t do anything about it. It seemed that only one of them could survive today. Chu Qing’s killing intent was about to erupt.
In a swift motion, Chu Qing activated his spiritual energy and dashed toward the charging Martial Supervisor. The gap between them closed rapidly. Chu Qing’s fingertip emitted a sharp sword light, aimed directly at rhe Martial Supervisor’s chest and abdomen. At the same time, the Martial Supervisor’s hand reached for his waist, ready to counter rhe attack.
The Martial Supervisor swiftly drew a military knife made of special materials from his waist. Chu Qing engaged in a series of exchanges, clashing three rimes with the knife. However, the impact caused his arm ro go numb. It became apparent that in close combat against a skilled martial artist, Chu Qing was at a disadvantage. The martial artist’s body was truly exceptional in its resilience and durability.
The two of them pulled away again and prepared for the next wave of attacks. Chu Qing had lost in the three moves just now. The sword array around him was torn by the military knife, and the Martial Supervisor left a palm-sized hole under Chu Qing’s ribs.
My realm is still too low.
If Chu Qing had broken through to the Core Formation realm, he would not be so passive now. He had already figured out the strength of that Martial Supervisor. As long as his protective sword array condensed into sword energy further, he would be invincible.
While it seemed unlikely that he could harm the Martial Supervisor, he was determined to give it his all. He focused his energy and prepared to make his move, aiming to end the fight as quickly as possible.
As rhe Martial Supervisor launched another powerful attack, Chu Qing remained steadfast, refusing to dodge or evade. His calm demeanor and unwavering gaze sent a chill down the Martial Supervisor’s spine. He sensed a looming sense of danger, a life-and-death crisis emanating from Chu Qing. This unexpected turn of events unsettled the Martial Supervisor, malting him rethink his strategy and approach cautiously.
Without hesitation, when he was 10 steps away from Chu Qing, he instantly changed his move. He threw away the military knife in his hand and pulled out a gun from his pocket. The moment this gun was exposed, Chu Qing’s expression changed..
