"This... all top-tier experts, how... is this possible!!!"
Chen Tianyu's two top experts were dumbfounded, having witnessed something they never thought possible in their lives. Over five hundred people, five hundred top-tier experts, it was simply unbelievable.
It's worth noting that even the four great families of the imperial capital did not possess such a formidable force.
"Since you chose to make a move, be prepared to die!"
Leng Feiyan coldly eyed the more than two hundred Chen family experts in the arena. Their despicable thoughts alone had sealed their fate; not one would survive.
"Kill them all, leave none alive!"
Leng Zhi's voice rang out, and in the next instant, over five hundred top assassins transformed into streaks of black light, swiftly cutting down all of Chen Tianyu's more than two hundred brought experts, leaving no survivors!
The speed was astonishing. With over five hundred top assassins unleashing their full power, the scene was utterly breathtaking!
A thick scent of blood permeated the area, so potent it was nauseating. However, for Leng Feiyan and the over five hundred top assassins, such a sight was commonplace.
After all, they had witnessed it countless times before.
"You... what are you doing, don't come near me! I warn you, I am from the Chen family in the imperial capital, you can't..."
Leng Feiyan had already appeared beside Chen Tianyu like a ghost, her lips curving into a devilish smile, reminiscent of a beautiful Rakshasa. "What, weren't you just wishing for me to suffer a fate worse than death?"
"I..."
Before Chen Tianyu could utter another word, a blade flashed. In the next moment, blood spurted from Chen Tianyu's neck, and he collapsed onto the ground, a lifeless corpse.
In his final moments, Chen Tianyu's eyes were filled with intense unwillingness. Clearly, he refused to accept such an end. Had he known coming to Tianhai would cost him his life, he would have preferred to remain in the imperial capital's Chen family forever.
"Clean up the battlefield, the rest withdraw!"
Leng Feiyan gave the order and then vanished from the scene. Following her lead, over four hundred people departed, leaving only about twenty to handle the aftermath, the blood, and the corpses.
*Sizzle hiss~~*
Five minutes later!
Over two hundred corpses turned into over two hundred heaps of ashes, scattered by the cold wind. Chen Tianyu and his entourage had joined their brother, Chen Tianlai, in the netherworld. The brothers would meet again in the land of the dead.
...........
Half a day later.
The imperial capital, Chen family villa.
In the study.
*Crack!*
The teacup in his hand was crushed by Chen Beijiang, the head of the Chen family. His face was deathly pale, and he sat motionlessly on his seat, his expression quickly turning into boundless rage. "What did you say!!"
"Tianyu... is very likely dead. And everyone in Tianhai has lost contact, the situation is the same as Tianlai's!!!"
*Pfft~~*
Upon hearing this devastating news, Chen Beijiang immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. He appeared to have aged ten years. The disappearance of his two beloved sons without a trace, though the reason was unknown, made Chen Beijiang understand that they were likely beyond saving. He hadn't expected that even with increased protection, Chen Tianyu couldn't escape death.
"Damn it!!!"
Chen Beijiang's expression turned incredibly grim. "Tianhai! Junlin Group! That Ye Xuan!!!"
"This matter must be related to that person. Someone! Summon everyone in the family, and march on Tianhai! I will avenge my two sons!!!"
Chen Beijiang could no longer contain his immense hatred. The Chen family was now heirless. How could he remain calm? Immediately, experts from all over the family converged at the Chen family villa in the imperial capital.
In just over ten minutes, over five hundred experts had assembled. Among them were no less than five top-tier experts and over a hundred first-rate experts. This demonstrated the power of a second-rate family in the imperial capital, something Tianhai could never compare to. This was how the Chen family maintained its standing in the capital, relying on these very experts.
Now, with his two sons' lives hanging in the balance, both in Tianhai, and linked to someone named Ye Xuan and Junlin Wine House, it was clearly the most direct lead.
If his beloved sons were truly dead, this immense hatred would drive him to overturn the entire Tianhai to find the perpetrator.
"I believe you may not have the chance."
*Swish~*
A voice echoed, and then a figure appeared in the middle of the hall, followed by several more figures. Each of them exuded an incredibly powerful aura.
The one leading them was particularly terrifying!
"You are... the Shadow Guards of the Wang family, one of the four great families!?"
Chen Beijiang's brow furrowed. A sense of foreboding washed over him. At this moment, the Wang family, one of the four great families, was interfering. "What brings you here?"
"It's very simple, to destroy the Chen family."
The leader, a quasi-War God expert standing one step away from true War God realm, spoke in a voice that boomed like heavenly thunder in Chen Beijiang's ears.
"You... don't think you can bully us just because you are one of the four great families of the imperial capital!"
"To destroy my Chen family in the imperial capital, I want to know why?"
Chen Beijiang's face was grim. Although he already had some suspicions, he couldn't quite believe them.
"Why?"
"Our arrival at this moment, have you not sensed it? Why we are destroying your Chen family is because..."
At this point, the peak quasi-War God glanced at Chen Beijiang. "Your Chen family has offended someone you shouldn't have, and attacked someone you shouldn't have."
"Hmm!?"
Chen Beijiang was no fool. The implication was clear. His eyes widened in horror. "Are you... are you referring to Ye Xuan...?"
"Since you know the mistake you've made, then die!"
"Act."
The peak quasi-War God gave the order. "After tonight, there will be no Chen family in the imperial capital. All Chen family experts and anyone connected to the Jiang family of Tianhai will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes, Lord Wuying!"
In the next moment, a massacre unfolded at the Chen family mansion in the imperial capital. In less than fifteen minutes, the Chen family was ruthlessly annihilated. What was peculiar was that neither the imperial capital's Bureau of Investigations and Statistics nor the imperial capital's military forces appeared on the scene, as if a tacit agreement had been reached.
And so, the dignified second-rate Chen family of the imperial capital vanished that night, annihilated by the Wang family. The Wang family's actions were meant to present a grand gift to Ye Xuan.
