147: Chapter 147 Even a God Can't Protect You

"Killed..."

"So what?"

Just this plain and simple sentence left Shen Wangshu stunned on the spot.

To hear this tone, killing a Huang Wentao was as insignificant and harmless as stepping on an ant.

This attitude and tone suddenly made Shen Wangshu feel that the young man before her was somewhat unfamiliar—unfamiliar to the point that she felt a tremble and a hint of chill.

Shen Wangshu had never been a Martial Artist; she was just a girl from a well-off family who had seen a fair share of the world and witnessed the true Peak of martial arts in the capital.

This also gave her a sense of superiority in her bones.

At least when facing her peers or those classmates, she possessed an innate sense of superiority.

It was as if these people, in her eyes, were truly nothing more than ordinary folks.

It was as if she and these people breathed the same air, yet did not exist in the same world.

But when it came down to it, she was just an ordinary person herself.

In her worldview, killing someone was still against the law.

But now, Qin Chuan was speaking so nonchalantly, so easily and casually.

It was as if killing someone was as simple as drinking water.

Was this... still the Qin Chuan she knew?

Was this still her childhood playmate?

Suddenly!

She thought of something.

Huang Wentao was a Martial Artist, then what about Qin Chuan?

To have killed Huang Wentao so easily, wouldn't that make Qin Chuan a Martial Artist as well?

My god!

Shen Wangshu suddenly felt a jolt of shock.

Because all this time, in her heart, Qin Chuan had just been an ordinary, as ordinary as can be, young man; she even felt he wasn't worthy of her, nor worthy of Su Yingxia.

But now, the other party was actually a Martial Artist.

It wasn't that Shen Wangshu found it very hard to accept, but rather that she mostly couldn't believe it.

But... even if he were a Martial Artist, so what?

At this Martial Arts Grand Gathering, having killed the eldest young master of the Haizhou Huang Family, even if he were a Martial Artist, he would have to face the music today!

"Qin Chuan..."

Shen Wangshu took a deep breath: "Are you a Martial Artist?"

"No!"

This answer left Shen Wangshu somewhat dissatisfied.

However, she couldn't be bothered to dwell on this question; if he could kill Huang Wentao and claimed not to be a Martial Artist, she would streak on the spot.

"You are so powerful, yet you hid it so deeply; won't you explain?"

Shen Wangshu's tone was somewhat bitter, but also carried a hint of anger.

From the moment Qin Chuan finished that calm sentence, in these few short breaths, countless thoughts had flashed through Shen Wangshu's mind—from the initial shock to now feeling somewhat angry, because Qin Chuan seemed to have been deliberately hiding it.

"Hiding?"

Qin Chuan found it amusing, but he couldn't be bothered to explain either.

Because in his eyes, what difference was there between Shen Wangshu and an ant?

Did he need to explain himself to an ant?

Moreover, he had already explained everything clearly on the plane earlier, but Shen Wangshu simply didn't believe him.

"Qin Chuan, are you really a Martial Artist?"

Su Yingxia was both surprised and happy.

Yang Siyi remained dazed for a good while before coming back to her senses; this guy had hidden it so well, he was actually a Martial Artist, and his strength didn't seem low either.

And yet, not a single person had discovered it.

Of course, to say he was hiding it would be truly wronging Qin Chuan, because from beginning to end, Shen Wangshu and the others simply didn't believe it; they had preconceived notions that Qin Chuan was an ordinary person.

And now they were blaming Qin Chuan for hiding it deeply.

"With this level of strength, he must be at least in the 4th Realm, right?"

Su Yunying stared intensely at Qin Chuan.

To be able to kill Huang Wentao so easily, this strength was probably on par with her own!

At this age, with time, he would certainly be able to walk the path of the Martial God.

However...

"Right now, having killed Huang Wentao, you had better think about how to deal with the subsequent trouble!"

Su Yunying's voice pulled everyone back from their shock to reality.

Just a moment ago, they were all astonished by the fact that Qin Chuan was a Martial Artist; now, returning to reality, it was enough to make their scalps tingle.

Huang Wentao was dead!

This was the eldest young master of the Haizhou Huang Family; having killed Huang Wentao at the Martial Arts Grand Gathering, even if Qin Chuan was a Martial Artist, he would likely die here today!

"Qin Chuan, I always thought your backer was Miss Xiao, but now it seems I was wrong."

Shen Wangshu stared at Qin Chuan with a grave expression: "I truly misjudged you before, but today you killed Huang Wentao, and at the Martial Arts Grand Gathering at that; the Huang Family and the people at the Martial Arts Grand Gathering will not easily let you off."

"If your identity as a Martial Artist is your reliance, then I'm afraid that won't be enough for you to leave unscathed."

"You were still too impulsive!"

To kill Huang Wentao for a moment's gratification, wasn't this seeking one's own death?

If this were just a very ordinary occasion, perhaps there might be a glimmer of hope.

But it just had to be the Martial Arts Grand Gathering.

Here, Martial Artists were the least scarce thing, and if you pulled just anyone out, they would be standing at the Peak of martial arts.

Qin Chuan's meager strength was simply not enough to be taken seriously!

Su Yingxia's face turned pale instantly: "Qin Chuan, what should we do now?"

At this moment, the gazes of many people around had already been attracted over.

When many people saw that Huang Wentao had been killed, they were all shocked and terrified.

"Wentao!!!"

A heart-wrenching voice rang out.

It was Huang Wentao's father, Huang Heying, walking over step by step, his Aura constantly radiating outward!

Sixth Realm!

"6th Realm Martial Artist!"

Su Yunying exclaimed.

The expressions of Shen Wangshu and the others all changed.

"Qin Chuan, how will you end this now?"

There was a hint of anger in Shen Wangshu's eyes, but also a trace of worry.

To put it plainly, she and Qin Chuan were childhood playmates after all, and her mother cared a lot about Qin Chuan; if he really died at this Martial Arts Grand Gathering today, her mother would probably be heartbroken.

"Ahhh..."

Huang Heying arrived in front of his son, discovered that his son no longer had any Life Qi, let out a howl toward the sky, and then fixed his gaze firmly on Qin Chuan.

"How dare you kill my son?"

The Aura on his body erupted completely.

"I want you to be buried with him!!!"

This terrifying killing intent made Shen Wangshu and the others involuntarily retreat.

Too terrifying.

The strength of the Sixth Realm was completely incomparable to anything below the 4th Realm.

"This guy is likely going to meet his end here today."

Su Yunying shook her head.

Shen Wangshu and Su Yingxia were both pale; in such an occasion, they simply couldn't say anything.

"What a pity."

Yang Siyi just felt some regret; this was the punishment for being impulsive.

And at this very moment, countless terrifying Auras rushed toward this side.

The experts at the Peak of martial arts were releasing their Auras, one after another.

Immediately after, they all began walking toward this side.

The number one Martial Artist of Jinling, Ye Nantian!

The Police Chief of the Alliance Guard, Lu Tianxing!

The person in charge of the Earth Martial Arts Alliance, Long San!

The Elder of the Earth Martial Arts Alliance, Wei Jingyuan!

As well as countless 7th Realm and Eighth Realm Martial Artists, all of whom were walking toward this side at this moment.

That was not all.

Representatives sent by various overseas countries, including white-skinned and black-skinned martial arts experts, were all walking toward this side in unison.

Shen Wangshu, Su Yingxia, Yang Siyi, and Su Yunying all felt as if Mount Tai was crushing down on them; their pupils were filled with expressions of terror.

Shen Wangshu said in terror: "Qin Chuan..."

"Even if the Immortals came today, they wouldn't be able to save you!"
