Jaw-Dropping Son-in-Law

Chapter 2248

Chen Jiuzhou was naturally shocked.

Deep down, he had always looked down upon Ye Qingtian and the like.

He assumed they were too stubborn and would spend the rest of their lives the same way, cultivating the same ancient martial arts techniques.

However, their earlier fight caught him by surprise.

He could feel how advanced Ye Qingtian's palm technique was.

Ye Qingtian's face was devoid of expression as he stared at Chen Jiuzhou. "This is Heavenly Palm. Ye Fan taught me back then."

"Shut up!" Chen Jiuzhou's expression turned grim when he heard Ye Fan's name.

"You, Ye Qingtian, hold a significant position as one of the six pillars of China. It is beyond comprehension that you would be involved with someone as despicable as that. Do you understand the gravity of your actions? Any individual who collaborates with traitors is considered a traitor. As the Hall Master of War God Castle, I must pass judgment. Ye Qingtian, are you aware of your wrongdoing?"

Chen Jiuzhou stomped the ground and rushed toward Ye Qingtian.

He didn't hold back and attacked Ye Qingtian ferociously.

Ye Qingtian dared not underestimate him.

However, after they exchanged a few moves, Chen Jiuzhou discovered Ye Qingtian only had one move that could threaten him.

The rest of his moves wouldn't pose a threat to him at all.

"It seems that you have only mastered one move, Ye Qingtian. I thought you had a trump card that would threaten me. How foolish of you to challenge me publicly! You are nothing but a fool who is eager to seek death!"

After sounding each other out briefly, Chen Jiuzhou finally understood the extent of Ye Qingtian's capabilities.

With a scornful smirk, he looked at Ye Qingtian as if the latter was nothing more than a fool.

"I can't believe so many fools exist in this world. Chu Tianfan was a fool, and so are you, Ye Qingtian. You are no match for me. Do you have a death wish?" Chen Jiuzhou sneered.

He refused to waste time on Ye Qingtian.

Without holding back, he increased the intensity of his attack and delivered successive powerful strikes in Ye Qingtian's direction.

This time, even though Ye Qingtian used Heavenly Palm, he was no match for Chen Jiuzhou's waves of attacks.

Like a floating boat in the vast sea, he capsized instantly.

The forceful attack landed on Ye Qingtian, crushing his bones, and blood spewed everywhere.

Ye Qingtian was hurled backward from the impact, and he coughed out a mouthful of blood.

"War God!" Everyone panicked at the sight of Ye Qingtian getting injured.

They rushed forward to check on him.

Chen Jiuzhou was the only one who remained calm as a vicious look crossed his face.

"I told you, you're seeking doom if you go against me. I won't kill you, though. I will punish you and make your life a living hell," Chen Jiuzhou announced with an icy grin, fixing his emotionless gaze on the heavily injured Ye Qingtian, who was lying on the ground weakly.

Behind him, Dragon Gate opened wide.

Chen Jiuzhou slowly made his way forward.

It was obvious he still intended to throw Ye Qingtian into the gate.

Right then, a woman in the crowd spoke up. "Hall Master Chen, please don't do this! No matter what, War God is still China's guardian angel. He spent his entire life protecting China, so he's our hero. You can't let him down!" Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

It was none other than Lu Yanxi, who had previously worked together with Ye Fan.

Despite her young age, she grew up listening to War God's legendary tales.

Now, the heroic figure was past his prime, and he was no longer the most powerful man in China's martial arts world.

Nevertheless, he was still the older generation's idol and religion.

Hearing Lu Yanxi's voice, many others stepped forward to stand before Ye Qingtian in a protective manner.

"Hall Master Chen, please have mercy!"

"War God has led China for decades, and he's loyal to China's martial arts world. He will never betray the people and country."

"We respectfully request that you investigate the matter regarding the rumor about Dragon Gate, as we believe War God's account to be credible."

Everyone started interceding on Ye Qingtian's behalf.

Clearly, they believed Ye Qingtian's words and were suspecting the safety of Dragon Gate Project.

Chen Jiuzhou couldn't accept the change in their attitudes.

He flew into a fit of rage and roared, "Shut up! Ye Qingtian is an accomplice of Chu Tianfan, and he obviously has an ulterior motive for tarnishing the reputation of Dragon Gate Project! As martial artists of China, we should work together to punish him. We should deliver justice and get rid of this traitor! How dare you beg for his mercy?"

His murderous intent was intensifying.

Evidently, he didn't anticipate that Ye Qingtian was that important to the martial artists in China.

With just a few words, he managed to tamp down everyone's desire for more strength and ignite their suspicion toward Dragon Gate Project.

"Hall Master Chen, there must be a misunderstanding here. We believe in War God!"

"Yes, he puts the country and people first. He'll never betray China!"

"Yes! We have absolute trust in him!"

"Hall Master Chen, there must be a misunderstanding. Please reconsider your decision!"

Everyone spoke up to defend Ye Qingtian, refusing to give Chen Jiuzhou a chance to take action.

Chen Jiuzhou's eyes were cold. "What are you doing? Do you want to go against me? If you don't want to die, get out of my way now!"

With that, a powerful surge of energy emerged from his figure and swept in all directions.

The dozens of people at the scene were sent flying backward.

Lu Yanxi was the first to get hit. She spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward for a few dozen meters before crashing to the ground.

Finally, Ye Qingtian's figure appeared before Chen Jiuzhou.

"Ye Qingtian, this is over. I'll send you into Dragon Gate now!" he announced, flashing a malicious smirk.

Ye Qingtian wasn't afraid at all.

Even when Chen Jiuzhou was right before him, he used his last shred of energy to remind the crowd, "Everyone, if you still have trust in me, do not walk past Dragon Gate! Don't enter Dragon Gate! That is the gates of hell!"

His yell reverberated around the area.

"The nerve of you to keep talking! Damn it!" Chen Jiuzhou cursed.

He had no idea Ye Qingtian would continue to spout nonsense even though the latter was about to die.

A wave of fury crashed through him as he delivered a punch to Ye Qingtian's cheek.

Before the punch could injure Ye Qingtian, two figures suddenly shot out.

"Limitless Sword!"

"Mo Family Fist!"

Sword Saint swung his sword in fury, while Mo Gucheng waved his fist in anger.

Both Supremes worked together to block Chen Jiuzhou's attack.

"Sword Saint? King of Fighters? How could you..." Ye Qingtian panicked when he saw them taking action. "Who told you to take action? You fools, step back! This has nothing to do with you!"

Both Sword Saint and King of Fighters were smiling calmly as though they had accepted their impending doom.

"Ye, cut the crap. You're not the only pillar of China. We won't let you face the situation alone," Sword Saint said.

"But you might lose your lives!" Ye Qingtian protested.

He had come forward earlier to prevent Sword Saint and the others from getting involved in the trouble.

Stopping Dragon Gate Project meant crossing Chen Jiuzhou, and he would never let them get away with it.

King of Fighters burst out laughing. "I'm not afraid of death as that means I'll get to sleep forever. You proved something, Ye. Dragon Gate Project is indeed suspicious!"

Chen Jiuzhou's fists balled up in anger when he realized they had suddenly joined the fight.

"It looks like both of you have been bewitched by Ye Qingtian. If that's the case, I shall cleanse the country of traitors like you. It's time for China to get new pillars as you old b*stards are past your prime."
