“Pa!”
Chen Fan slapped Hou Haoran to the ground and looked down at him. He said lightly, “If you speak again, die!” At this moment, Hou Haoran felt that there was a terrifying pressure above his head. As long as he made a slight move, this pressure would descend and crush him into powder. As Martial Battalion’s commander, who had experienced hundreds of battles, he had experienced countless life and death situations, but he had never experienced anything like this before. This made him deeply feel the fear of death. The killing aura emitted from this person was truly terrifying! However, this time, he had brought three thousand Martial Guards. Even if Chen Anxu had monstrous abilities, he would not be able to touch a single hair of Zhang Zhengsong. No matter what, Zhang Zhengsong was still a capable general under his command. If he, as a commander, could not even protect his subordinates, then people would laugh at him in the future. “Chen Anxu, are you really going to make things difficult for me?” Hou Haoran stood up and gritted his teeth. “If you want to kill him today, you have to first ask my three thousand Martial Guards if they agree.” Hou Haoran took three steps back and waved his hand. A dense mass of Martial Guards behind him immediately rushed forward and surrounded Chen Fan. Chen Fan’s sharp gaze swept across the surroundings, and he said coldly, “Those who block me, die!” At this moment, a shout came from not far away, “Who dares to act rashly?” Before he arrived, a thunderous voice had already spread throughout the entire Zhang family Manor. The three thousand Martial Guards present were instantly scared out of their wits, and their eyes were filled with fear. Hou Haoran’s heart trembled violently because this voice was none other than the voice of Southern Region’s Wildblade Nandou. As the Lord of Southern Region, Wildblade Nandou’s name had already spread throughout Southern Region. This person had a tyrannical nature and strict military management. Even the

Chapter 28 Wild Blade Lingnan Palace would not dare to provoke him with the title”Devil” of the Southern Region, Hou Haoran did not expect that his immediate superior would suddenly appear in front of Yunhai. While everyone was stunned, a black shadow flashed from afar and appeared in front of Hou Haoran in the blink of an eye. On his waist was a three-foot-long machete. A faint baleful aura leaked out from the scimitar. “My Lord!” Hou Haoran hurriedly knelt down on one knee to Nandou and cupped his hands respectfully. “My Lord!” The three thousand Martial Guards knelt down on one knee in unison to pay their respects. Nandou flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly. Then, under the incredulous gazes of everyone, he walked over to Chen Fan and knelt down on one knee. He respectfully cupped his hands and said, “Star Lord!” This scene left everyone dumbstruck. The dignified Lord of Southern Region actually bowed down to the Lord of Western Region. This was simply too unbelievable. Great Xia’s four great Guardian Divisions, regardless of status or power, were all existences on equal footing. There simply wasn’t any Realm Lord that was above the other three great Realm Lords. However, at this moment, the Lord of Southern Region was kneeling in front of the Lord of Western Region, and his attitude was respectful, as if they were master and servant. Hou Haoran was shocked. Wildblade Nandou was arrogant and unruly. He did not even put the Lingnan Palace in his eyes. However, he was so respectful to Chen Anxu. This reminded him of a rumor. Now, it seemed that the rumor was most likely true. The other three Real Lords were all disciples that were cultivated by Chen Anxu! Thinking of this, his forehead couldn’t help but be covered in a dense layer of cold sweat… “Kid, you are still so energetic. It has been so many years and you haven’t changed at all.” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Chen Fan waved at Nandou and smiled faintly. “Get up and talk.”

Chapter 28 Wild Blade “Thank you, Star Lord!” Nandou grinned and stood up. “Weren’t you at Guardian Division? Why did you suddenly appear at Yunhai?” Chen Fan asked. Not long ago, when he was
making a detour around Southern Region, he heard from the deputy general that Martial Battalion had gone to patrol all over the Southern Domain. He did not expect to meet him so coincidentally at Yunhai. “I was supposed to go to the border to inspect. Later, I heard from the deputy general that you took a detour to return to Yunhai, so I rushed to see you without stopping.” Nandou said with a smile. As he spoke, his expression suddenly changed. He looked at Hou Haoran, who was kneeling on the ground, with a domineering gaze like that of a raging blade, and said sternly, “Hou Haoran, you allowed your subordinates to run amok. It’s fine if you don’t repent and plead guilty, but you still want to lead Martial Battalion to rebel?” “Please forgive me, Lord. I, I do not know anything about this matter!” Hou Haoran fearfully explained, “I acted rashly, please punish me!” “Punish you? Of course I will punish you.” Nandou pointed at Zhang Zhengsong, who was kneeling on the side and shivering. He said coldly, “This person has the power of Deputy Commander of Martial Battalion. He forced an innocent woman to marry his dead father and buried her alive. This kind of behavior is worse than a beast. You don’t know right and wrong, but you want to play favoritism for him. That’s a big crime!” Hou Haoran raised his head and looked at Zhang Zhengsong. He shouted angrily, “Zhang Zhengsong, is what the Realm Lord said true?” At this moment, Zhang Zhengsong was already scared to death. He never thought that Chen Fan’s identity would be so terrifying. Right now, he was full of regret. If not for the fact that Xiao Long was already dead, he would have pulled out his tendons and skinned him. Zhang Zhengsong supported himself with one hand on the ground and crawled to Chen Fan’s feet. He kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, “Star Lord, please spare my life. I really did not know that you were Western Region’s master. Otherwise, even if I was ten thousand times more courageous, I would not dare to do such a thing to your wife!”
“On account of the many contributions I have made on the battlefield, I beg you to let me live.” Chen Fan coldly said, “If I were not Western Region’s master, perhaps the person who died today would be me.”
Chapter 28 Wild Blade “You still beg for mercy?” Nandou coldly snorted. His eyes suddenly filled with hostility. With a “clang” sound, he pulled out the scimitar at his waist. With a wave of his hand, he directly chopped off Zhang Zhengsong’s head. “Such a scum of the army. Death is not a pity!” Nandou put away
his saber and immediately ordered, “Pass down my order, expel all the people related to the Zhang Clan from Yunhai. If you dare to take even half a step into Yunhai, you will be killed without mercy!” Hou Haoran glanced at the head that had rolled to his side and was frightened. “Yes, my lord!” News of the Zhang family and Xiao family’s family being confiscated and exterminated spread quickly among the upper class of Yunhai. Many wealthy families who had business dealings with the Zhang family and Xiao family expressed their opinions one after another, drawing a clear line between the Zhang family and Xiao family, cutting off all ties! After the Zhang family was executed, the Su family was able to return to the villa safe and sound. “Chunyu, hurry up and get Chen Fan back. Let him be the father of the child. We must not let Martial Battalion’s officials find out that he was Xiao Long’s flesh and blood.” Old Madam Su said in shock, “If you leak even the slightest bit of information, the Su family will probably be accused of colluding with traitors and committing treason!”
