Chapter 795: Chapter 795: Everyone’s Here

"Kid, since you’re so stubborn, don’t blame us for being impolite. The Martial Alliance has a duty to eliminate martial artists like you," Elder Zhang said viciously.

"What? Are you afraid I’ll expose your connections?" Yang Qi retorted sarcastically.

"Shut him up." Elder Zhang had lost his patience and waved for his men to act.

The Martial Alliance had always been tyrannical in its conduct, quite different from the Martial Arts Association. The Martial Arts Association was at least open to discussion, but the Martial Alliance had always held itself in high regard, aiming to dominate the Martial Arts World of the Dragon Country. Thus, its methods were extremely domineering. Furthermore, since the Alliance Hierarch was also the Sect Master of the Heavenly God Sect, they were even more reckless. In their view, no martial artist in the world would dare to provoke the Heavenly God Sect.

Unfortunately for them, they met one today. Yang Qi watched coldly as the Martial Alliance members rushed him, suddenly grabbing Yagyu Senyo’s throat with such speed that Elder Zhang couldn’t even react.

"Wait!" Elder Zhang cried out in alarm. Yagyu Senyo couldn’t die! The man was holding a large amount of their funds. If he died, that money might be lost forever.

"Hehe, so you really don’t want him to die. Since that’s the case, behave yourselves and don’t make any rash moves. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee this hand of mine won’t accidentally apply too much force," Yang Qi laughed.

"Damn you, Dragon Country person! Let me go! Do you think you can leave this place alive after killing me? With the Martial Alliance here, you’re finished," Yagyu Senyo threatened.

"Heh, you’re just like your son, unable to see the situation clearly. Threatening me at a time like this? Aren’t you just deliberately trying to provoke me?" Yang Qi chuckled. He suddenly squeezed his hand, and with a sickening CRACK, Yagyu Senyo’s neck snapped. The man didn’t understand how he had died, even at the very end. How could he possibly be killed with members of the Martial Alliance right in front of him? It was simply beyond his comprehension.

"Bastard!" Elder Zhang roared, absolutely furious. This was not only a direct slap in the face, but more importantly, it had cost the Martial Alliance a huge sum of money. The Yagyu Corporation contributed a substantial amount of funds to their Sea City Martial Alliance every year. Now, it was all gone. Moreover, they had recently entrusted Yagyu Senyo with an illegal overseas investment that was about to pay off. They hadn’t dared to get involved personally, so Yagyu Senyo had handled everything. With him dead, that money became a sunk cost, completely lost to them. How could they not be furious? As an Elder of the Sea City Martial Alliance, Elder Zhang personally stood to lose at least a hundred million. It was infuriating!

"You can’t blame me for this. He’s the one who ran into my hand. I didn’t realize his bones were so brittle," Yang Qi said with feigned grievance.

The members of the Martial Alliance were so angry they could have spat blood. Were those even the words of a human being?

"Kid, originally, you just had to come with us to the Martial Alliance for an investigation, and that would have been the end of it. But since you dare to challenge our authority, I’ll have to let you feel the wrath of the Martial Alliance." Elder Zhang looked as if he was about to explode, his rage practically soaring to the heavens.

Yang Qi shook his head. "Old man, why don’t you listen to reason? If you don’t believe me, why don’t you try putting your own neck against my hand and see if it breaks?"

Though he spoke jokingly, his voice carried a chilling, lethal intent. He didn’t care one bit about the Martial Alliance. They were shielding Yagyu Senyo and wanted to take him away for interrogation? Was it really just for questioning? Did they think he could enter the Martial Alliance’s headquarters and come out in one piece? Besides, he had already offended Yagyu Senyo. They must take him for a fool. Since they weren’t giving him a way out, he had no choice but to make an enemy of the Martial Alliance.

"Good. Very good. Still so arrogant. I really don’t know what gives you the confidence to defy the Martial Alliance. But when I kill you here today, I hope you won’t have any regrets, because you brought all of this upon yourself." Elder Zhang’s expression turned ferocious, and in the next moment, he was about to slay Yang Qi.

"Heh, if you’re the one who ends up dead, I hope you won’t regret it either, because you’ll have brought it on yourself," Yang Qi retorted scornfully.

"Good! Good! Very good! Seize him!" Elder Zhang repeated the word "good" three times, his anger finally boiling over as he roared.

The Martial Alliance members behind him were about to make their move when they felt a terrifying aura wash over them.

"The Martial Alliance is certainly showing off its might. Are you looking down on my City Lord Mansion? How dare you move against our honored guest!"

Men from the City Lord Mansion had arrived, led personally by City Lord Li himself. No matter how influential the Martial Alliance was, it was still a civilian organization. Would it dare to make an enemy of the City Lord Mansion? Not now, at least not openly.

"City Lord Li is right. The Martial Alliance has gotten more and more out of line over the years, forgetting its place! Are they looking down on the forty-eight families of Sea City?" Tong Shan had also arrived, and behind him were the forty-eight families of Sea City. Every single one of them exuded a threatening presence, and they had all brought their experts. In an instant, the Martial Alliance’s small group seemed utterly outmatched.

"City Lord Li! Chairman Tong! And all you Family Heads, what brings you here?" Elder Zhang’s expression was extremely foul; he was utterly shocked.

"Did I not make myself clear? Mr. Yang is an honored guest of my City Lord Mansion!" City Lord Li reiterated.

"He is also an honored guest of our Trade Association and of the forty-eight families of Sea City!" Tong Shan and the others declared.

Elder Zhang’s face grew even uglier. It wasn’t that he hadn’t heard them before; he just couldn’t believe it. This Yang Qi looked to be in his twenties at most. How could someone so young have such terrifying backers, compelling the forty-eight families of Sea City and the City Lord Mansion to come out and support him?

"Everyone, he killed the head of the Yagyu Corporation, Yagyu Senyo. It will be difficult for us to explain this to the Yagyu family!" Elder Zhang said with a frown.

"What is there to explain? That man deserved to die long ago. Under the protection of your Martial Alliance and the Wei Family, he committed countless crimes. Today, Mr. Yang was simply delivering justice on behalf of heaven," City Lord Li said with a wave of his hand. "The great Martial Alliance, needing to explain itself to a foreign family? You people truly have some nerve! You’re only getting more backward with age!"

Elder Zhang was truly at a loss for words. What in the world is this kid’s identity? He’s summoned such powerful reinforcements that I can’t even make a move.

"What are you waiting for? Leave at once. The Martial Alliance should mind its own business. The Heavenly Supervision Hall will take charge of this matter; it has nothing to do with you," City Lord Li said coldly.

"Fine. Since you all put it that way, I will give you face. Let’s go!" Elder Zhang gritted his teeth and left with his men from the Martial Alliance.

City Lord Li, Tong Shan, and the others hurried forward to greet Yang Qi. "You came to Sea City without a word! If anything came up, we could have handled it for you," City Lord Li sighed. "Thankfully, we arrived today. It would have been troublesome if a real fight had broken out."
