Celestial Night Emperor

Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Tianxuan Comes from the West

This was the wedding of the young master of the Zhao Family, the most powerful clan in all of Jiangning!

The guests were stunned. So was Zhao Wuji.

Young Master Zhao had always gotten his way in Jiangning. No one had ever defied his commands, let alone humiliated him so publicly!

’On my wedding day, someone actually dares to object?’

A savage sneer twisted Zhao Wuji’s lips as he stared at Qin Tianxuan from across the street. "So it was you who stormed the South City Orphanage? You’re the one who rescued this little bitch?"

’Little bitch?’

The corner of Qin Tianxuan’s eye twitched. A monstrous killing intent erupted from him, flooding the entire street.

Zhao Wuji met his gaze from across the street and instinctively took a step back.

’That look in his eyes was terrifying!’

’It felt as if a thousand swords were piercing straight through my heart.’

At that moment, everyone’s heart began to race. It was as if a dark, profound pressure was crushing their chests, making it hard to breathe.

’No!’

’How can I, the Young Master of the Zhao Family, be so weak?’

Furious at his own moment of weakness, Zhao Wuji spun around and roared, "Call Zhao Hu! Find out what the hell happened at the orphanage!"

A moment later, Housekeeper Zhao came running over, phone in hand. He was in such a panic that he nearly tripped and tumbled onto the stage.

"Young Master... Young... Young Master Zhao! Zhao Hu and his team... they’ve... they’ve been wiped out!" Housekeeper Zhao shrieked.

A new wave of shock rippled through the guests.

Zhao Hu! He was Zhao Wuji’s top enforcer, and he’d been... wiped out?

Qin Tianxuan’s expression, however, remained perfectly serene.

’A firefly daring to compete with the bright moon?’

’Wiping out the Zhao Family’s thugs was as easy as slaughtering chickens.’

The guests began to whisper amongst themselves. A sense of foreboding washed over Zhao Wuji. ’I can’t back down now. I can’t show any fear!’

He grabbed the frail Han Biwei.

Han Biwei’s face was a mask of shock. ’Niannian... she’s been rescued! But... who is this man? Why would he bring her here, just to get them both killed?’

She tried to cry out, but the overwhelming emotions were too much. With a soft whimper, she fainted.

Zhao Wuji angrily tossed the unconscious woman aside and waved his hand ferociously. "Everyone, move out! Kill him!"

At his command, six teams of Zhao Family security personnel sprang into action. Six hundred thugs swarmed Jinfeng Avenue, blocking every escape route.

They brandished gleaming machetes and clubs wrapped in barbed wire. All of them wore black tank tops or were bare-chested, showing off their garish tattoos.

"Give the order, Young Master Zhao!"

"Give the order, Young Master!"

Their roars echoed down the street, causing the guests to tremble and retreat, huddling together in fear.

’So, this is the true power of the Zhao Family!’

’The Golden Cauldron Commerce Association, backed by the Five Great Clans and twelve other prominent families... only when they truly bared their fangs did you realize just how terrifying they could be.’

Zhao Wuji straightened his back, his confidence returning.

’Heh, what am I afraid of? In the end, the Zhao Family still rules Jiangning!’

’These six hundred men are all ruthless killers who fought their way up from the streets. With an army like this, who could possibly stand against me?!’

Zhao Wuji raised his hand and pointed at Qin Tianxuan. "Shred him to pieces!"

The guests couldn’t help but shut their eyes, unwilling to watch the man be torn to shreds.

The six hundred thugs, wielding all manner of weapons, charged from east to west like a pack of ravenous tigers and wolves.

Qin Tianxuan stood proudly, unmoving. The daughter in his arms, exhausted from her ordeal, had already fallen into a deep sleep.

"Sleep, my sweet. When you wake up, all the nightmares will be gone, and Aunt Han will be safe beside you."

Qin Tianxuan took a step forward. With a sharp WHOOSH, the umbrella in his hand snapped shut. Its long, slender body looked just like a sword.

In that moment, the umbrella was his sword. Qin Tianxuan strode forward, plunging fearlessly into the sea of thugs.

A terrifying wave of energy seemed to erupt between heaven and earth.

Along Jinfeng Avenue, that savage power coalesced into a raging gale.

The gale carried with it a series of deafening cracks, like rolling thunder.

Riding the wind and summoning the thunder, Qin Tianxuan cut a path straight across Jinfeng Avenue!

He broke through.

Utterly and completely.

None of the six hundred thugs could get near him. They couldn’t even see how he moved.

Ahead, the festive wedding canopy collapsed, its fabric drifting down slowly to cover the screaming guests.

They never even saw the result of his strike.

But Zhao Wuji saw it.

His jaw dropped and his eyes widened, as if trapped in a nightmare.

Because every single one of his six hundred formidable thugs was on the ground. Not one remained standing.

Then, in a blur, Qin Tianxuan was standing right in front of him.

In that instant, all of Zhao Wuji’s pride evaporated. His legs trembled, and a telltale dripping sound came from beneath his trousers.

With a THUD, Young Master Zhao fell to his knees. "Wh-who in the world are you?"

Qin Tianxuan’s gaze was placid. He asked only one question. "Did you hit my daughter? Which hand was it?"

"No, I didn’t! I... I..." Zhao Wuji groveled on the ground, shaking uncontrollably.

"Then it was both hands."

CRACK! CRACK!

Both of Zhao Wuji’s arms snapped. Before a scream could even escape his lips, a swift kick sent him flying, knocking him unconscious.

With a flick of his wrist, a long streamer looped around Zhao Wuji’s legs like a rope. Qin Tianxuan hoisted the unconscious Han Biwei onto his back, then tugged on the streamer, dragging the fallen young master behind him like a dog.

His daughter in his arms, a beautiful woman on his back—this was a moment for satisfying vengeance.

But the grief and fury in Qin Tianxuan’s heart had not lessened in the slightest.

’Zhao Wuji? The Zhao Family?’

’You’re already dead.’

’I am the Night Emperor, with millions under my command, yet I let my family be bullied by trash like you!’

And so, radiating an endless, malevolent aura, Qin Tianxuan departed in cold silence.
