Genius Daddy in the City - Chapter 433

Chapter 433: Mad Southern Ye is Dead!

The people looked toward where the voice came from and saw Master Xiegu walk out of the crowd. He could not hide the excitement on his face.

“Xiegu, have you really seen Mad Southern Ye? If you’re telling the truth, I’ll give you all of the spells that I’ve comprehended. You should know that my spells are no weaker than those from Dragon Tiger Mountain.” Shen Tiannan had joy on his face.

Master Xiegu was over the moon. He clasped his fists and said, “Master Shen, are you sure you’ve got the right picture?”

He was rather cautious. When he saw Ye Chen’s picture, he was not excited compared to Yu Lian and the rest. The first reaction he had was to suspect that Shen Tiannan had the wrong picture.

Shen Tiannan frowned, appearing to be upset. “It’s definitely the right one!”

“Then, that’s it!” Master Xiegu said immediately after sensing Shen Tiannan’s impatience, “I’ve seen this man on the way here. He was with two men and two ladies back then!”

Yu Lian and the rest turned pale upon hearing that. They buried themselves in the crowd by instinct, worried that they would be recognized. After all, they were the two men and two ladies that Xiegu mentioned.

However, Xiegu found them like a piece of cake in the crowd with a glance. He stretched his arm to point at them. “Master Shen, it’s the three of them. They were with Mad Southern Ye.”

Everyone could not help but stare at Yu Lian and the rest after hearing what Xiegu said. Yu Lian’s face turned pale, and she denied it immediately, “No, you’re lying. We don’t know this man!”

They might be killed upon recognition. How would she dare to admit that?

Shen Tiannan glanced at the three of them while looking grim. He suspected that Xiegu was lying when he realized that they were regular people without a cultivation base.

At that moment, Zhizhi said out of panic, “That’s right. W-we really don’t know Brother Ye…”

The people gasped as soon as she was done speaking.

Yu Lian and Yu Lei shut their eyes in despair.

‘You silly girl. Just say that you don’t know him. Why must you mention ‘Brother Ye’? Now, you’ve busted our cover!’

“Hahaha!” Master Xiegu laughed out loud. “Did you hear that Master Shen? They’ve admitted that themselves. That proves that I didn’t lie!”

He was secretly excited.

Two powerhouses had come together to kill Mad Southern Ye. However, Mad Southern Ye was nowhere to be seen. It only served as evidence that he was fearful of Shen Tiannan and Lei Feihu.

As soon as Shen Tiannan and Lei Feihu found Mad Southern Ye and killed him, they would naturally do as they promised. Xiegu would experience an elevation in his spells. By then, he would be No. 1 in Tiannan. It could be described as killing two birds with one stone.

‘Mad Southern Ye, oh, Mad Southern Ye, it was you who brought this trouble upon yourself!’

Shen Tiannan’s eyes lit up when he heard what Xiegu said. He leaped from the heaven altar and walked to Yu Lian and the rest slowly. Then, he said in his deep voice, “Kids, tell me where Mad Southern Ye is. If you guys tell me the truth, I’ll spare all of your lives!”

Yu Lian could not help but jolt when he walked closer. She stammered, “H-he’s dead!”

She hated Ye Chen to her very core now. ‘You b*stard, you’re dragging us into trouble even after you’re dead! Hmph!’

Shen Tiannan scoffed, “Since you guys refused to tell me Mad Southern Ye’s whereabouts, don’t blame me for hurting you!”

Mad Southern Ye was dead? How was that possible?!

To him, Yu Lian was lying!

He stretched his arm and made a mysterious qi giant handprint in the air. He grabbed Yu Lian directly. Yu Lei wanted to fight back by instinct but was shocked to find out that he could no longer move his limbs as if Body Immobilization was cast upon him.

‘Ye, we’re going to be killed because of you!’

Yu Lian looked at the handprint blankly in despair.

However, Yuan Qitai waved when the handprint was getting to Yu Lian, and it faded. Although that was the case, he could not help but retreat many steps back.

“Master, are you alright?” Deng Chan held onto him immediately.

“I’m fine!” Yuan Qitai was secretly horrified by Shen Tiannan’s ability. He waved and walked to Shen Tiannan. He said after a soft sigh, “As the leader of Banshan, I, Yuan Qitai, greet Master Shen!”

“Banshan? What? Are you trying to stop me?” Shen Tiannan smiled in rage with contempt on his face.

“I wouldn’t dare to do that!” Yuan Qitai shook his head lightly and forced a smile as he spoke, “Master Shen, I’ve seen Mad Southern Ye too. However, I can prove that girl is telling the truth.”

“Do you mean Mad Southern Ye is really dead?” Shen Tiannan’s expression was getting grimmer now.

Who could kill the No. 1 of China’s ancient martial arts world, Mad Southern Ye? Even Lei Feihu and Shen Tiannan would have the confidence to fight him after consuming the Demonic Life Reduction Pill.

Yuan Qitai said in his deep voice, “I’m not sure if he’s dead, but I saw Mad Southern Ye being engulfed by lava with my own eyes.” He then told him the story of Ye Chen going into the sinkhole.

“Sir Ye is really dead, so the grudge you have with him has nothing to do with us. We’re from the Fire Phoenix. If you dare harm us, it’ll mean making the entire Fire Phoenix your enemy!” Yu Lei said while pretending to be calm.

“The Fire Phoenix? What’s that?” Shen Tiannan mocked, “An insignificant Fire Phoenix aside, I’d kill people from the Heavenly Palace too if they dare stop me! Since you guys say that Mad Southern Ye died in the lava, bring me there. I want to see him if he’s still alive, and I want to see his body if he’s dead!” He grabbed Yu Lian forcefully and glared coldly at Yuan Qitai.

Yuan Qitai could only nod and lead the way. Lei Feihu and Zhang Xuanqing followed behind. The others also followed behind them.

…

They realized that the lava had subsided long ago when they arrived at the walls above the sinkhole. Although that was the case, scorching heat was coming out of the ground like the Flaming Mountains.

Meanwhile, the ground was burnt and barren. There was nothing there.

“Has Mad Southern Ye really been engulfed by lava?” Shen Tiannan looked at the ground beneath with a solemn expression. He had faint fear on his face. Even he could not take it for long if he went into the sinkhole as the temperature was so high. He would definitely die if there was lava.

“I’ve nothing to do with Mad Southern Ye, so there’s no need for me to deceive you. I merely saved that girl because she’s innocent,” Yuan Qitai said in his deep voice.

Yu Lian was worried that Shen Tiannan would attack her, but she suppressed her fear and told him everything about them bringing Ye Chen to Shennongjia.

She cared nothing about military secrets now. After all, her life was more important.

Moreover, she thought that Ye Chen was the cause of all the trouble. Thus, there was no need for her to hide anything for him. Yu Lei’s lips moved a few times in between, but he did not stop her in the end.

Shen Tiannan’s expression changed many times after listening. He could not help but look at Lei Feihu aside. “Do you believe that, Brother Lei?”

“Most likely!” Although Lei Feihu was unwilling to admit that, he nodded and said, “I don’t think these three dare to lie to us. Moreover, the temperature is extremely high here. Mad Southern Ye can’t escape death if he really ran into lava even though he’s No. 1 in China’s ancient martial arts world.”

“Brother Shen, since Mad Southern Ye is dead, the grudge between you and him has ended. Let’s forget about it!” Zhang Xuanqing from Dragon Tiger Mountain sighed softly and said.

“Mad Southern Ye, whose name caused an upheaval in China, was killed in lava. How sad!”

“Mad Southern Ye only appeared in China after so many years. If he had continued to grow, he might have achieved martial venerable. But he’s dead now. What a waste.”

“What’s wasteful about that? To me, it’s good that he’s dead. That devil has killed too many people, and he finally got his karma now!”

Meanwhile, the crowd behind secretly shook their heads and began discussing among themselves. Some thought it was a waste while some were sympathetic. Some gloated while some were excited.

Master Xiegu was over the moon. ‘I’ll be Tiannan’s No. 1 now!’

Shen Tiannan seemed to be unwilling to accept that, and he had resentment on his face. “I was planning to kill him, eat his flesh, and drink his blood. It was an easy way out for that b*stard to die like that!”

“Master Shen, since Mad Southern Ye is already dead, then we no longer have anything to do with this. Shouldn’t you let me go now?” Yu Lai, whom he was grabbing, said while shaking.

“Let you go?” Shen Tannin grinned ferociously. “Sure, I’ll let you go now”!

In the next second, he tossed Yu Lian toward the sinkhole. Everything happened so fast that Yuan Qitai and Zhang Xuanqing failed to stop him.

“No! I don’t want to die!” Yu Lian had fear permeating her face, and she began crying. Never had she thought that Shen Tiannan would still want to kill her.

“Sister Yu Lian!”

“Yu Lian!”

Yu Lei and Zhizhi were completely shocked.

The entire crowd was dumbfounded too as they did not expect Shen Tiannan to be so cruel.

“Mad Southern Ye killed my son. Since you guys are related to him, I’ll kill all of you to be buried with my son!” Shen Tiannan laughed hysterically and grabbed Yu Lei and Zhizhi. He was going to toss the both of them into the sinkhole too.

“Shen Tiannan, you’ve crossed the line!”

Bang!

Zhang Xuanqing was enraged. Just when he was going to help, a loud thud that was like a rumbling thunder came. Subsequently, the ground started shaking. The people looked horrified when they finally managed to stand still, including Shen Tiannan and Lei Feihu.

“What happened?”

“Was it an earthquake?”

“Guys, look at the sinkhole!” someone screamed at that moment.

Everyone turned immediately. The crater in the sinkhole that had been extremely peaceful began shaking intensely as if it was going to collapse anytime now.

In the next second, a gigantic fire dragon shot out of the sinkhole like a giant chimney. The fire dragon was approximately ten meters in diameter and 20 meters tall. The massive spark dyed the entire heaven and earth red.

The people looked at it in horror. Someone suddenly inhaled sharply and said, “Guys, look. There’s someone on the fire dragon’s head!”
