Chapter 645: The Beauty of Violence
"Thank you, esteemed Prince Alec, for your gift," Colding said, rising to his feet with reverence and excitement.
"Obtaining Cain’s Left Hand is what you deserve. There will be more rewards waiting when you return," Alec said indifferently.
Hearing this, Colding nodded eagerly. The thought of rewards that could even elevate him to the rank of Prince filled him with intense excitement.
"It seems even a Prince like you has forgotten the ancient covenant, haven’t you?" At that moment, Chen Anhun sneered, his gaze filled with murderous intent. "Thinking of returning? Do you really believe that’s possible?"
Hearing Chen Anhun’s words, Alec paused, his gaze settling on him. "An ancient Guardian of the East?" he asked with a frown.
"You could say that," Chen Anhun replied coolly, staring at Alec. "None of you will leave here alive today. You’ve overstepped your bounds. Your reach has extended too far."
"Is that so?" Alec said calmly. "It’s an honor to meet an ancient Eastern Guardian for the first time, but I don’t believe you can stop me."
"Is that so? Unfortunately, it doesn’t matter what you believe," Gu Feng spoke up. As he spoke, he stepped toward Alec, his expression calm, showing no regard for the Prince’s status.
Seeing this, Alec frowned slightly. As a Prince of the new generation, he wasn’t well-versed in the ancient covenants, so he didn’t take the Eastern masters seriously.
"Easterners are truly arrogant," Alec scoffed and strode toward Gu Feng.
The two closed the distance rapidly, and in an instant, they were less than a meter apart. Just then, Alec made his move. He threw a punch at Gu Feng, his fist radiating a powerful Dark Power mixed with the scent of blood.
Gu Feng’s expression remained serene as he raised a palm and effortlessly blocked the attack.
Alec’s face changed, his eyes filling with disbelief. He was a dignified Prince of the Blood Clan! How could such a formidable attack be blocked so easily? How was this possible?
"Is this the extent of your power?" Gu Feng asked dismissively. "If so, I truly don’t understand the source of your arrogance. Is it this unimpressive strength of yours?"
The next moment, Gu Feng struck, swinging his palm fiercely. Alec had no chance to dodge, and the slap connected squarely with his face.
BANG!
BOOM!
With two successive sounds, Gu Feng’s blow sent Alec flying into a stone wall. He crashed heavily, his face pale and blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He was as wretched as one could possibly be.
Alec was dumbfounded. He couldn’t believe that he, a proud Prince of the Blood Clan, had been brought to such a state by a single slap. It was utterly unbelievable!
It wasn’t just Alec who was stunned. Colding, Kulad, Yisiduo, Lin Kuang, and Britney were all frozen in shock. They had no idea Gu Feng was so powerful. Alec was a Prince, yet he had been casually slapped away with one blow. The extent of Gu Feng’s strength was terrifying.
So strong... This strength is likely on par with Old Man Nameless, Lin Kuang thought to himself, his gaze filled with shock.
Is this the power of an Eastern Guardian? Incredible! Kulad thought, completely bewildered. Standing beside him, Yisiduo’s expression was just as grim. He too was a Prince of the Blood Clan. Although he was slightly stronger than Alec, the difference was limited. Alec had been sent flying by a single slap; even if he, Yisiduo, had been in Alec’s place, he probably couldn’t have withstood that blow either. Moreover, with so many Eastern Guardians present, the situation was undoubtedly perilous for them.
"I... I’m going to kill you!" Alec roared, regaining his senses and staggering to his feet. His eyes blazed with furious, murderous intent. He no longer appeared noble; his handsome face twisted into a ferocious mask as a pair of massive wings erupted from his back.
"Kill me?" Gu Feng asked nonchalantly.
"That’s right! I’ll kill you!" Alec shrieked, his face a hideous sight.
The next moment, his figure shot forward at an extreme speed—so fast that even with Lin Kuang’s strength, he couldn’t track Alec’s movements. This was a testament to Alec’s sheer speed. However, this incredible speed was useless against Gu Feng.
Gu Feng calmly extended a hand and clamped down on Alec’s fist. The next instant, his other hand swung around and smashed viciously into Alec’s head.
BANG!
Alec’s head was nearly crushed, and his entire body made intimate contact with the hard ground, his face practically deformed.
Seeing this, Lin Kuang was utterly dumbfounded. Damn, that was violent! But it felt so exhilarating!
At that moment, Gu Feng planted his foot on Alec’s head and looked at the other members of the Blood Clan.
"The ancient East is not a place for the likes of you to enter," Gu Feng said, his expression placid. "All who trespass will die. Let him be a warning to all of you!"
The next moment, a terrifying wave of power erupted from Gu Feng’s body. He stomped down with force, and Alec’s head was brutally crushed under his foot. Blood splattered everywhere, yet not a single drop touched Gu Feng.
Seeing this, the members of the Blood Clan were completely stupefied. A Prince was an undeniably mighty existence in their clan, yet Gu Feng had killed one so effortlessly. Yes, effortlessly—as easily as an eagle catching a chick.
At that moment, every member of the Blood Clan, including Prince Yisiduo, looked at Gu Feng with eyes full of terror.
"To our friends, the Guardians of the East, I sincerely apologize for our unauthorized intrusion. I am deeply remorseful and offer you my apologies. We will withdraw immediately and never set foot in the East again," Yisiduo said, bowing slightly, his tone respectful.
By this point, Yisiduo had no other choice. If they fought, their deaths were certain. There was no escape. It was better to bow their heads and plead for mercy; perhaps they still had a glimmer of hope. As for what would happen after returning to the West, they would deal with that later. The priority was to survive the current crisis.
Hearing Yisiduo’s words, Chen Anhun couldn’t help but smile. "Oh? What a lovely thought. I said it before: today, not a single one of you from the Blood Clan will leave. You are all going to die! Do you think the East is a place you can come and go as you please?"
As he spoke, a terrifying aura burst forth from Chen Anhun, locking onto Yisiduo completely. If Yisiduo dared to move an inch, he would be met with a devastating barrage of attacks.
