Chapter 89 Getting Punished!

The voice came from the most s.p.a.cious room of the house, and the speaker was a tall and well-built man who wore a calm expression. The man was named Azure Dragon, a member of the 12 Chinese Zodiacs.

In front of him was a group of people led by a burly man who had a big mouth and a wide face. The burly man held a sword about a half of meter wide in his hand, and the sword could be used as a s.h.i.+eld.

“Azure Dragon, don't forget your ident.i.ty. The 12 Chinese Zodiacs is just at the Star Level, and the 12 Constellations is at the Moon Level. So naturally, you're our subordinates. What made you think you can order me?” Cancer put his broad sword on the ground, which made a loud bang and caused the ground to shake. From this, one could tell the sword was very heavy.

“We just didn't want to get credits through dirty methods as you did. You have done so many villainous things to be promoted to the Moon Level. To make some achievements, you even killed innocent kids. How inhuman you are!”

A st.u.r.dy man with a rough face and a dangerous aura said behind Azure Dragon. The man was named War Tiger, who was also a member of the 12 Chinese Zodiacs.

Cancer pulled a long face and opened his big mouth. “We just care about the result. One couldn't make great achievements if he is too overcautious and indecisive.”

“Make great achievements? What you have done will only bring you a punishment from heaven,” Golden Monkey said in a mocking tone.

“Silly monkey, you're courting death,” Cancer said in a furious voice and wore a cruel expression.

“You want to fight? Come on, I've hated you for long…” War Tiger roared in a low voice, and he was full of battling intent. Every step he took would make the ground shake.

“Great, let's fight. You're just at the Star Level. How dare you offend me? Let me teach you a lesson…”

The members of the 12 Constellations chimed in with angry voices. Though they had one less companion than the 12 Chinese Zodiacs, they were much more powerful than them as a whole.

“Come and have a try, Azure Dragon!” Cancer waved his broad sword and said in a provoking tone, “You pieces of trash, you'll go home crying and looking for your moms in a minute, haha…”

War Tiger got angry and roared, about to make his attack.

Azure Dragon frowned and stopped War Tiger. Staring at Cancer, he said, “Do you dare to have a one on one fight?”

Though they both served in the National Security Agency and were not allowed to kill their colleagues, they often fought against each other.

“Of course, I do.” Cancer grinned and wore an arrogant look.

“Good. If I win, you must summon your men back. You've killed an innocent woman, and I don't want to see more victims. If I lose, I won't interfere in the matter anymore,” Azure Dragon said in a low voice.

Cancer stretched out a finger and waved it aggressively. “If you lose, you should not only stop interfering in the matter but also kneel down in front of me and apologize to me and call me grandpa.”

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I'll fight you.” War Tiger snarled resentfully.

However, Azure Dragon stopped him, shook his head, and looked at Cancer before saying, “Okay, you have my words.”

“It's a deal!” Cancer laughed and lifted the door curtain with his sword. After walking out the door, he said arrogantly, “Azure Dragon, come out quickly and be ready to go die!”

As soon as the voice fell, Cancer shouted again, “Boy, who are you?”

The people inside the room were surprised and all went outside.

Following Cancer's eyes, they saw a figure with a cold expression stand on the two-meter high wall. The figure was no other than Chu Xun.

The people in the yard were shocked. The weakest one among them was at the eighth level of the Acquired Realm, yet none of them had noticed when this newcomer arrived, which was simply terrifying.

After they tried hard to sense the man's Internal Breath, they looked even more surprised because there was no fluctuation of Internal Breath from the man.

They had thought that the man was a mysterious and powerful expert, but now, they felt it hard to tell the man's power.

“Boy, who are you?” Cancer asked again.

Chu Xun remained silent.

“Fu*k! How dare you, a silly boy who came from nowhere, put on airs in front of us?” Scorpio, standing behind Cancer, spoke up. He had an evil aura and a huge scorpion tattoo, with the scorpion's head on his chest and scorpion's tail wound around his neck. The tattoo looked chilling.

“Are you from the 12 Constellations?” Chu Xun finally spoke but in a cold tone and stared at Cancer.

Cancer's expression changed for their ident.i.ties were top secrets and except for their own men, others could not get to know about it. However, the man pointed out their ident.i.ties frankly, which made Cancer become vigilant. Cancer had a rough look and a bad temper, but he was a careful man.

“Boy, who are you exactly?”

Chu Xun narrowed his eyes and showed a chilling expression as he responded with a question. “Are you from the 12 Constellations?”

“Don't try to mystify us, and yes, we're the 12 Constellations,” Scorpio replied, staring at Chu Xun.

Chu Xun raised the corner of his lips and his eyes turned icy. He said in a cold tone, “Kill!”

As his voice fell, he had charged to the men of the 12 Constellations.

“You're courting death!” Scorpio mocked and rushed toward Chu Xun.

Cancer's eyes glittered but he did not stop Scorpio.

Scorpio threw a military knife at Chu Xun with a disdainful expression while running toward Chu Xun.

Clang!

Chu Xun broke the knife off with his hand and sped up. His fist was covered with True Energy, and he punched forward, leaving lots of fist shadows behind.

Scorpio got shocked. Chu Xun was so fast that Scorpio had no time to step back. He gathered his Internal Breath in both fists and punched toward Chu Xun with exploding sounds.

Bang!

Strong waves of energy spread around and destroyed all the blooming flowers in the garden.

Crack!

With chilling sounds of bones breaking and screams, a figure flew backward, smashed the wall, and fell on the ground.

The people present looked in the direction of the noises and gasped in fear, and they looked terrified.

The figure was Scorpio. His arms broke in an unbelievable angle, his chest dented. He spat out mouthfuls of blood and meat bits, which meant that his organs were shattered.

Scorpio looked at Cancer asking for help; however before Cancer could make a response, Scorpio's head tilted to one side—he was dead!

Everyone present was scared. The fact that an expert at the ninth level of the Acquired Realm was killed by one blow shocked them.

“Kill!”

Chu Xun growled in a light voice, venting his enormous anger.

Cancer looked grave. They had eight people on their side, yet their opponent still dared to attack them without any fear. “He is so arrogant. Did he take us as a group of sheep?” Cancer thought.

His teammates also looked angry and thought, “He is too haughty. Did he take us as pigs and sheep to be slaughtered?”

Bang!

Cancer stamped the ground, causing it to crack, and he charged at Chu Xun and slashed toward Chu Xun's head with whoos.h.i.+ng sounds.

Chu Xun lowered his body and dodged the sword at an amazing speed.

Boom!

The sword missed its target and thus. .h.i.t the ground, causing broken stones and soil to fly in all directions and leaving a huge hole there.

Cancer turned back and saw Chu Xun break through Libra's defense and clutched Libra by the throat.

Crack!

Libra's head hung down weakly. His neck was broken.

Bang!

Chu Xun kicked Libra away, who fell into the vegetable patch and scared the chickens into flying in a panic. Dust was blowing in the yard, and Libra's body was stained with hen dung and mud all over.

Libra died in a really ignominious way.

Cancer's face looked terrible. He roared loudly and brandished his sword at Chu Xun. The Sword Qi was very fierce and seemed to be able to cut Chu Xun into two pieces.

Chu Xun raised his fist to meet the sword.

Bang!

There was a dull sound of metal on metal, which was deafening.

Clatter! Clatter!

Cancer stepped backward without stopping, and his sword kept making clattering sounds.

The people present were astonished to find that Chu Xun was so powerful and could gain an upper hand even when meeting a broad sword with a fist.

Cancer was filled with disbelief as well, and his eyes were full of horror.

Whoos.h.!.+

Chu Xun moved.

Aries, a member of the 12 Constellations, looked at Chu Xun's approaching fist in horror, and his pupils contracted. Chu Xun was so fast that Aries could not dodge the attack.

Puff!

Everyone could not help but be startled.

As they looked in the direction of the sound, they saw a b.l.o.o.d.y hole about the size of a fist in Aries's chest. Aries's body was punched through and was left with a bright hole.

Bang!

He fell onto the ground, dead, sending dust flying in the air.

Aries's eyes were wide open, looking as if he could not believe he died.

It was a fast kill!

Everyone was astounded to see Aries, who was at the ninth level of the Acquired Realm, killed by one blow.

The fact was so terrifying.

Azure Dragon and White Tiger looked at each other and saw astonishment in each other's eyes.

“Should we lend them a hand?” Golden Monkey asked in a low voice.

As soon as Chu Xun showed up, he killed three people in succession, which made Golden Monkey wonder if they were the next target.

Azure Dragon shook his head and replied, “Better not at the moment. This man didn't make his attack until he found out who the members of the 12 Constellations were. Obviously, he came at Cancer and his teammates.”

Others nodded in agreement.

“How did they offend such a strong guy?” Golden Rooster crinkled his neck and looked pale.

“They killed the innocent arbitrarily and did all kinds of bad deeds just for their personal gains, so it's natural they would get punished sooner or later,” Azure Dragon said in a deep tone.

“Ahh…”

Cancer went mad. While fighting against him, Chu Xun killed three of his men, which was an undisguised humiliation to him.

A Grandmaster must not be humiliated.

A terrifying aura rose up from Cancer.

He raised his broad sword, ran his Internal Breath inside his body wildly and gathered it to the sword, around which fierce power surged.

Swis.h.!.+

As Cancer slashed down with the sword, a gust of sharp Sword Qi rushed forward, pierced through the air, and charged at Chu Xun with exploding sounds.

Chu Xun looked indifferent and punched forward.

A white fist print immediately flew out in the direction where Chu Xun punched and hit the approaching Sword Qi.

Boom!

With the violent collision, violent force spread like ripples. The flower stalks looked as if they had been hacked by a blade after the sharp force swept over them.

Azure Dragon and others stepped back one after another to dodge the force.

Chu Xun made a dozen punches in succession with a frosty expression.

More than ten fist prints charged at Cancer with terrifying momentum.

Cancer looked terrible and placed the sword in front of his chest like a s.h.i.+eld.

Boom! Boom!

As the fist prints. .h.i.t the sword, there were deafening and frightening booming sounds.

Cancer withdrew backward without stopping, and the ground under his feet was cracked.

After a dozen exploding sounds, Cancer was thrown backward more than ten meters away, his broad sword was covered with cracks, and his arm trembled slightly.

He was overwhelmed by shock. Made of special compound metal mixed with aerosiderite, the broad sword was very hard and even armor-piercing bullet could not pierce it. However, the sword now was covered with cracks after being punched.

He looked up at Chu Xun.

However, what he saw made him feel as if he were in h.e.l.l, and his face turned pale instantly.

He saw that all his men died.

During the time he was thrown backward over a dozen meters, Chu Xun killed all his teammates.

Cancer was filled with indignation and fear.

“Why?” Cancer could not understand why Chu Xun targeted him.

“You killed the innocent just to get the Immortal Water. For every person of mine you killed, I'll kill ten and even a hundred people of yours to take revenge,” Chu Xun said indifferently.

“Immortal Water?”

Cancer was stunned.

At the moment, the people present all realized something.

They remembered that their teammate Mouse once called them saying that Cancer killed an innocent woman in order to get the formula of the Immortal Water.

If Chu Xun had not shown up in time, Azure Dragon and Cancer would have come to blows for the matter.

All the members of the 12 Constellations were cruel and would do everything, good or bad, to achieve their goal.

Now, they reaped what they sowed and got punished.

“What about Immortal Master Gao and others…”

“They have been waiting for you in h.e.l.l. Now, let me send you to see them.”

As soon as his voice fell, Chu Xun stamped the ground.

Boom!

The ground was exploded and Chu Xun jumped over ten meters high in the air.

“Demon-slaughtering Palm—Nirodha!”

Chu Xun dived downward in the air and punched suddenly.

Cancer roared loudly and raised his sword to defend himself. He did not want to die.

Boom!

Chu Xun shattered the sword with the punch.

Cancer screamed miserably, his face covered with blood, half of his body buried under the ground. Most of his bones got broken.

Chu Xun landed on the ground and kicked the broken sword up.

Puff!

Cancer's head fell onto the ground, and blood gushed out from the cut.
