Kicking down the door was a technical job, and of course, it was also a highly dangerous job. Without a certain level of skill, who would have the guts to kick down someone else's door? Hence, those who dared to kick down the door usually had a certain level of skill.
Guan Zhengyuan could not help but suck in a breath of cold air as he looked at the crowd before him. The Shi family had put in a lot of effort this time. 35 experts were almost a third of the Shi family's strength. Guan Zhengyuan might not be the best alchemist, but he was still the head of the Guan family, so he had a good eye. These 35 experts were obviously experienced and ruthless people. As the head of the Guan family, Guan Zhengyuan knew that the Guan family was strong in appearance, but weak in reality. These 30 experts alone were not something that the Guan family could handle.
What will come will come! Guan Zhengyuan looked calm on the outside, but he could not help but sigh inside. This time, he could only pin all his hopes on Ling's students.
If they won this time, the Guan family would be able to turn the tide. If they lost, the Guan family's weakness would also attract the attention of the rising forces, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Besides, Guan Zhengyuan was worried that the Shi family's alchemy emphasized on lethality. Such a shortsighted approach would not be beneficial to the long-term development of the family, but it could play a decisive role in a situation like this.
Just then, a commotion came from behind him.
The moment Ye Chong stepped out of the door, countless pairs of eyes were on him.
There was reverence, awe, jealousy, and doubt in their eyes ….
This was the rumoured alchemist who passed through the mountain path and returned safely! The crowd was stirred, as it was the first time for most of them to see this young alchemist.
Ye Chong's appearance had raised the temperature of the surroundings, and some of them even felt their palms sweating. On the contrary, Ye Chong, who was the center of attention, looked calm. He was followed by a large group of young Guan family members. They did not look afraid, instead, they looked excited, and of course, more of them were looking forward to it. They were eager to see Mr. Zhu Feng's performance. After listening to his teachings for the past few days, they had developed a blind faith in him. Kick down the door? Hmph, isn't that suicidal?
Seems like I'll be the one to stand up for them. Ye Chong, on the other hand, was well aware of it. After spending so many days with them, he had a more intuitive understanding of the standard of the Guan family. They weren't on the same level as these guys. Even if he imparted some new knowledge to them, it would take time for them to digest, absorb, and find the most suitable direction.
Right now, the gap between them and the people in front of them was still too big.
Out of all the people in the Butler Hall, he was probably the one with the most destructive power. Ye Chong walked towards Guan Zhengyuan helplessly.
"Zhu Feng is here," Guan Zhengyuan said with a smile. His expression made it seem as if the Shi family's experts didn't exist.
"Yes." Ye Chong nodded, but his next question almost made everyone's jaws drop to the floor. "What's kicking the door?" Ye Chong was always straightforward with his questions.
"Hehe." Guan Zhengyuan let out a cheerful laugh. After a short pause, he casually replied, "Nothing much, I just came to look for trouble."
"I see." Ye Chong nodded again. He understood what it meant to look for trouble. A thought suddenly popped up in his mind. If Lunatic Guan was here, what would she do against these door-kickers? Thinking about Lunatic Guan's personality, Ye Chong was sure that if she was here, she would probably go straight to the Shi family after killing these people.
"Don't worry, Zhu Feng. Do whatever you want. As for the severity, Zhu Feng, just do whatever you want. "Guan Zhengyuan's tone was still the same hateful, indifferent one. The Butler Hall and the Shi family had completely fallen out, so Guan Zhengyuan was very direct with his words. His meaning was simple, dead or alive.
"Any method?" Ye Chong's expression was one of "Are you sure?".
Guan Zhengyuan took a look at the Shi family experts, who were on high alert, and smiled lightly, "Yes, any method."
As he finished, Ye Chong disappeared from Guan Zhengyuan's sight. Ye Chong's cold voice came from the air, "Alright!"
Under such circumstances, what method could he use to finish the battle in the shortest time possible?
In an instant, Ye Chong chose combat. Choosing the most appropriate combat method under the most appropriate circumstances was a lesson he had learned after countless battles. Hence, he chose the most appropriate combat method without hesitation - combat!
The combat techniques of the September Lan Family allowed him to explode out without any warning and was extremely sudden. While it was a pity that he could not bring his wooden spear, it also made his ambush more unexpected.
A tiger charging into a flock of sheep was the best example. The Shi family alchemists were unprepared for Ye Chong's ambush. In fact, they could not do anything at all. Once a combat expert got close to them, it would mean death for the alchemists. The frail bodies of the alchemists were as slow as a hungry snail against the lightning fast movements of a combat expert.
Besides, they were facing a Jie expert.
Ye Chong understood from Guan Zhengyuan's words just now that he wanted to be ruthless! This was also in line with his philosophy of combat. Even if Guan Zhengyuan did not say anything, he would not give his enemies any chance.
Ye Chong moved like lightning, weaving in and out of the group of alchemists. Afterimages flashed in the air, moving away as soon as they came into contact.
The sounds of bones cracking were endless.
The sound of the throat bone cracking was so concentrated that it sounded like beans being fried.
The Shi family alchemists were already in a tight formation, and a chaotic battle was Ye Chong's forte. The Shi family alchemists were unlucky. They were afraid of hurting their comrades, so they did not dare to use their highly lethal alchemy products.
This made Ye Chong's massacre easier.
The screams were ear-piercing.
22 seconds!
The ground was littered with corpses. Only Ye Chong's frail body stood there calmly. Every corpse had the same cause of death - their throats were all caved in. Ye Chong was expressionless, as calm as ever, as if what he had just done was nothing out of the ordinary.
Everyone who witnessed this scene had their faces drained of all color, and their eyes were filled with deep fear.
Massacre! This was a massacre!
No one would have thought that this young man was actually a Grandmaster of Combat, and a Grandmaster of Combat with such terrifying skills! However, the most frightening thing was the indifference in the young man's eyes. He did not even look at the corpses on the ground.
Even the Guan family members looked at Ye Chong like he was the devil. Guan Jin's eyes were wide open, her face pale as she stared at Ye Chong in disbelief. She could not imagine that this was her Brother Zhu Feng, who was so focused in the alchemy lab.
God of Slaughter! Guan Zhengyuan's heart skipped a beat, and he could not help but blurt out the word. His expression changed, but quickly returned to normal.
The expected battle of alchemy did not happen. The young man did not use any alchemy skills, but instead used combat. This was the first time something like this had happened in Night Ridge. Night Ridge was a pure area for alchemy, and no combat expert had ever entered it before.
Using combat to kill the door-kicker, should that count? No one could argue with that, since Night Ridge had never stipulated that door-kickers could only use alchemy. This made the Guan family's victory controversial.
However, it was undeniable that the Guan family was now untouchable. After this incident, no matter how the families in the Ridge fought against each other, no one dared to come to the Guan family and kick the door.
With such a fearsome being in charge, it would be suicidal to come and kick the door. Many of them would never forget the sight of the young man standing among the corpses on the ground. Most of the alchemy families in the Ridge had never left the Ridge in their lives. They had never seen a real battle.
When Ye Chong showed them the cruelty of battle for the first time, everyone in the Ridge was shaken!
Besides, an alchemist who was proficient in combat, this was a terrifying combination.
The Shi family had suffered a great loss this time. They had 35 first-rate alchemists, but a third of the family's strength had been destroyed in less than a minute. Any one of these thirty-five alchemists would definitely become a master alchemist once they left the ridge. However, such a group of people did not even last for half a minute.
Of course, everyone had their own opinions on this matter. The most discussed question was: How could one not use alchemy to kick the door?
The Guan family maintained a low profile after this incident. The door was shut tight, and the Guan family members were forbidden from leaving the house.
This incident also affected the Ridge Council. During the distribution of resources, the Guan family received the highest value in all these years. Guan Zhengyuan was overjoyed. This also meant that the Guan family's status was elevated.
Five days later, the Guan family submitted a report to the Ridge Council, "Improvements to Bilayer Liquid Tempering", which shocked the entire Ridge. For this, the Ridge Council even rewarded the Guan family. Bilayer Liquid Tempering was invented by Guan Ling, and was considered by the Ridge Council to be the most outstanding invention in the past 20 years. The improvement of this technology had never stopped, but no one had ever succeeded.
The submission of this report silenced all those who doubted the mysterious young man's alchemy skills. While the author's name was written as Guan Ling, anyone from the Ridge could see the shadow of the person behind the report.
It seemed that the Guan family could be revived. Everyone was impressed. Of course, they were secretly jealous. Why did they not have such a good thing in their own family?
