Chapter 345: [268] Dragging the Sword into the Mansions of the Elite! To Cut Down the Powerful and Wipe Out Their Lineage (In Search of Monthly Votes and Recommendations)_4
 

They even brought so many experts with them.

Yet, they couldn’t withstand even a single sword strike from that young man with the surname Pei!

They were instantly killed!

I heard that the newcomer has been employed for less than two months!

When did such a monster appear in Da Peng City?

There was silence for a moment in the arena.

A core member of the Gongsun Family said in a deep voice, “This young man’s swordsmanship is extraordinary. I’m afraid no one from the younger generation of our Gongsun Family can match him. I suggest we notify our kin to avoid rashly challenging him, to prevent unnecessary sacrifices…”

“Why not challenge him?”

Just then, Gongsun Muyang’s father, Gongsun Xuanhai, said solemnly, “One step back, and you retreat at every step. My son is dead because he was inferior in skill. But if our Gongsun Family chooses to back down, how can we stand our ground in the future!”

Everyone looked towards him.

“Third Brother…” Gongsun Xuantian frowned at him.

“I am fine,” said Gongsun Xuanhai, who had just lost his son. He seemed genuinely unfazed as he retracted his gaze and continued indifferently, “Not only should we challenge him, but we should also issue a reward to encourage more people to challenge him.

The more elites he kills, the more enemies he makes. I want to see how many Central State and Nagano noble families he can offend! When that time comes, will there be a place for him in Central State or the Federation? Then, I want to see how that person in Central State will have any reason to protect him!”

Assassination by proxy!

No sooner had Gongsun Xuanhai finished outlining his plan than those present understood his intent.

Gongsun Xuancang and Gongsun Xuantian exchanged glances.

The latter was also deeply entrenched in the sorrow of losing a child.

Since the death of Gongsun Qianfeng, who else of their family’s younger generation could be considered a force to be reckoned with?

Are they to pin their hopes on that bookworm who only knows to read hundreds of times in the Book Pavilion?

A noble family can never do without talent.

But this time, the loss for their Gongsun Family was too great. They were already surpassed by other families, at a disadvantage.

Now, after losing elite members one after another, even if they want to cultivate new talents, it’s already too late.

The only solution now is to make other families’ elites suffer losses as well.

“Spread the word everywhere that this newcomer named Pei Jinye wants to provoke the elite offspring of a hundred noble families…” Gongsun Xuanhai said in a heavy tone.

As long as they make Pei Jinye the target of the noble families, it would be best to drain the elite offspring of those families.

If Pei Jinye should die…

It would also be considered as avenging his son.

During this period, his Gongsun Family can completely sit back and watch the tigers fight.

Pei Jinye…

Thinking of this person, Gongsun Xuanhai’s face became extremely gloomy.

Gongsun Qianfeng is already dead.

Now, who else in the Gongsun Family can shoulder the responsibility of successor?

All of it should have belonged to his son.

But it was all shattered by a single sword strike from Pei Jinye.

Patriarch Gongsun Xuancang said solemnly, “Pass the word, if anyone can kill Pei Jinye, our Gongsun Family will bestow upon him an Advanced Heart Method, Two Intermediate Techniques, and twenty million for their troubles. Not only that, but our Gongsun Family will also offer a chance for further study at Nagano Martial University.”

Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically.

One Advanced Heart Method alone was already extremely valuable…

And to offer so much more, it was clearly a significant sacrifice.

Such an exorbitant price would be enough even to assassinate a seasoned Third Rank Extraordinary.

And Pei Jinye was merely a newcomer who had just joined the company.

Inside the room.

Someone hesitated for a moment, then voiced their hesitation, “Big Brother, isn’t this cost… too great?”

“Too great?” Gongsun Xuancang looked coldly at the speaker, “This man is now an enemy of our Gongsun Family. If he does not die, where will our honor be? Now, we must not concern ourselves with immediate gain for our Gongsun Family, we must use all our strength!”

At that moment.

Suddenly.

An earth-shattering shock came from not far away.

The ground beneath the feet of all those in the conference room trembled.

Amidst the uncertainty of everyone, the door suddenly burst open.

A man entered, dragging his sword behind him.

“No need to look for me, I’ve come on my own… all of you, come at me together.”
