"That's ridiculous. From what you're saying, if I offend this kid, I'll bring about my own demise? Ha ha, President Qin, do you think this is a marketplace where you can fool me with tricks? In martial arts, only strength matters. A strong person is a strong person, and a weak person is a weak person. Only the strong can wield the power of life and death," Hua Xu laughed, his attitude dismissive.
"You seem to understand the rules of this world," a sudden voice interrupted. It was Jiang Chen, speaking calmly but with a unique charm that stirred the hearts of those present.
With Jiang Chen's words, everyone's attention shifted back to him.
Hua Xu looked at Jiang Chen, who was sitting across from him, casually sipping tea with an air of composure. To Hua Xu, however, it seemed somewhat ridiculous.
Not everyone had the right to act pretentious in front of him; such posturing was merely a clumsy imitation that would only invite laughter.
"Young man, do you know who I am?" Hua Xu asked, glancing sideways at Jiang Chen.
"I'm not interested in your background; it's just that today, you really shouldn't have come here to be an eyesore," Jiang Chen replied, his expression still as calm as water.
"You've got some nerve! This man is the Third Master of the Hua Family! Do you know what the Hua Family is? Judging by your appearance, you probably don't. Let me tell you: the Hua Family is one of the Seven Great Martial Arts Families in Huaxia. Offending the Hua Family means there's only one path for you—death! You better apologize quickly!" Gu Xiangzhou interjected angrily.
"The Hua Family? Oh, I'm aware of them," Jiang Chen said with a slight smile, sensing that things were becoming easier.
"Since you know, how dare you act pretentious in front of me?" Hua Xu's tone grew grave.
"You don't know the consequences of offending me. I believe your ancestor, Hua Yuejin, should be well aware," Jiang Chen said with a half-smile.
"Bold! You dare to directly call out my ancestor's name!" Hua Xu could no longer contain himself and scolded sharply.
"The one seeking death should be you," Jiang Chen declared. As his words fell, the water in his teacup suddenly rose and shot directly toward Hua Xu.
Although Hua Xu was also a martial artist, even if he were at the Divine Realm level, he would have no power to retaliate against Jiang Chen if he intended to kill him. Moreover, he wasn't even close to Transcendence; all he had was his family's backing. Without that support, he was inconspicuous in Huaxia Martial Arts.
"Swish!"
The stream of water sliced through the air like a blade, severing one of Hua Xu's arms and causing blood to spray everywhere.
"Ah!"
The horrified cries echoed as Gu Yu and others jumped from their seats in shock, dropping their teacups. None had ever witnessed such a bloody and brutal scene before.
Hua Xu regained his senses and looked at his severed arm on the ground, nearly fainting. However, being a martial artist allowed him to react adequately; he quickly sealed his acupoints and managed to stop the bleeding before turning his gaze back to Jiang Chen with a mix of shock and fury.
He was astonished that Jiang Chen was actually a martial arts master; what he had just done would be difficult for an ordinary Master of Transformation to achieve.
As for Gu Yu and Gu Xiangzhou, they huddled together, nearly embracing each other in fear.
Last night, Qin Xiaoya had lightly injured Master Zhang Gaozong, which was already shocking enough. Today, Jiang Chen took it a step further, creating a bloody scene that was even more visually and psychologically impactful than the previous night.
"Do you know why I don't kill you?" Jiang Chen asked, looking at the terrified Hua Xu with a faint smile.
Hua Xu remained silent, gritting his teeth in anger.
