Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 689 - The Peerless Peak’s Overwhelming Strength

“Ah!” A miserable scream pierced the air.

Blood spurted wildly as a severed, bloodied arm flew through the sky.

Hiss!

Chen Fan sucked in a breath of cold air.

His fourth senior brother, Yan Weiyi, had condensed a qi saber and severed the arm of a second-level Manifestation realm super expert. The elegance and precision of the move were awe-inspiring.

Chen Fan began to grasp the true meaning of being peerless.

A peak Heavenly Star realm had effortlessly severed the arm of a second-level Manifestation realm expert. If this wasn’t peerless, then what was?

Yan Weiyi truly stood as an invincible existence within the Heavenly Star realm.

Chen Fan also noticed that if the opponent hadn’t reacted swiftly, Yan Weiyi's slash wouldn’t have just taken his arm—it would’ve claimed half his life.

The strength of the Peerless Peak’s people was not only unrivaled in the same level, but they were also boundlessly domineering.

No wonder everyone, from Second Senior Brother Di Chen to Seventh Senior Brother Jian Qi, carried themselves with such pride. They had the strength to look down on their peers.

Although the Peerless Peak only had a few members, they were indeed all monsters capable of fighting others above their levels. Their talents weren't far behind his own.

“Ahhh!”

This Law Enforcement Hall executive was still screaming miserably, his wound bleeding uncontrollably.

Yan Weiyi’s slash was tyrannical, containing the willpower to “kill.” This kind of power was very hard to dispel, and the unfortunate man had no way to suppress the lingering, destructive energy.

The other Law Enforcement Hall members were scared witless and turned pale after seeing their executive being severely injured in one strike, completely powerless to resist.

The Peerless Peak’s people were indeed monsters and absolute lunatics. They didn’t care who you were—crossing them could only bring you absolute misfortune.

Even though they were from the Law Enforcement Hall, in charge of punishing others in the academy, and could act as they wanted in front of other disciples, they were still a head shorter in front of the Peerless Peak.

Kang Hong watched the executive’s arm get severed in a single stroke and was so terrified that he wet his pants on the spot.

Suddenly, the wind rose and the clouds surged. A terrifying aura erupted from the distance, shaking the heavens and earth, and an overwhelming pressure enveloped the entire area.

“Peerless Peak, you’re too presumptuous!”

Under this aura, Chen Fan felt as if countless ancient divine mountains were pressing down on him, leaving him breathless.

And he wasn’t alone. Jian Qi, enveloped in sword intent, resisted the terrifying pressure. His expression remained unchanged, standing straight and firm, like a sword piercing the sky.

Finally, the second senior brother, Di Chen, said, “Xiao Qianhe, you’re being audacious!”

The moment his words rang out, the oppressive pressure lifted, vanishing like a storm clearing after the rain.

The wind and clouds surged in the horizon, revealing a figure.

Whoosh!

An elder with eyes as sharp as a falcon appeared. His neatly kept mustache and dignified presence left a powerful impression.

He was Xiao Qianhe, an elder from the Law Enforcement Hall, with cultivation at the peak of the Manifestation realm.

A cold gleam flashed in Xiao Qianhe’s eyes as he wasted no time accusing Chen Fan of murdering members of his hall.

“Di Chen, Chen Fan murdered our disciples in front of the True Martial City’s gates. His sins are unforgivable. As one of the main peaks of the True Martial Academy, your Peerless Peak also has to abide by the academy’s rules. Yet here you stand, obstructing us from carrying out our duty. What is the meaning of this?”

Di Chen said indifferently, “Xiao Qianhe, your Law Enforcement Hall’s people dared to ambush and try to kill a disciple of Peerless Peak outside True Martial City. You should be happy that I haven’t gone to your hall to demand an explanation. You twist facts well. What, you think Peerless Peak is easy to bully just because we’re few?”

A terrifying aura erupted from Di Chen, causing the space to vibrate violently, pressing toward Xiao Qianhe.

His cultivation level wasn’t as high as Xiao Qianhe’s, but his aura was far more powerful and domineering, making Xiao Qianhe's eyes narrow in unease.

Di Chen had said that no one under the Legendary realm could kill him. It wasn’t mere boasting; it was a widely acknowledged truth.

Even Xiao Qianhe wasn’t confident he could defeat Di Chen in a fight.

Everyone in the academy knew the unrivaled strength of Peerless Peak.

It was said in song and whispers alike: better to face the wrath of the Law Enforcement Hall than to provoke Peerless Peak. That fear and awe spoke volumes.

Every one of those nine Peerless Peak members was an invincible existence among those of the same level.

Peerless, truly peerless—none could match them. Their tyranny knew no bounds, giving even the academy’s higher-ups a headache.

The Law Enforcement Hall could flaunt their authority at the other peaks, but they really didn’t dare to be too reckless at the Peerless Peak.

They knew that if they truly provoked its members, the Peerless Peak members would not hesitate to storm the Law Enforcement Hall itself. Such a confrontation wasn't mere legend; it had happened before.

Fifty years ago, the Law Enforcement Hall arrested Jian Qi. A Lesser Legendary realm expert had to take action to successfully suppress Di Chen.

However, before they could punish Jian Qi, the Peerless Peak’s eldest senior brother, Huang Wuji, stormed into the Law Enforcement Hall and executed that very expert on the spot. The incident sent shockwaves through the academy that rippled across the entire eastern continent.

The academy was incensed, and even the Law Enforcement Hall’s Hall Master, Elder Tian Xing, publicly vowed to discipline Huang Wuji. However, everything changed when the Peerless Peak’s peak master, Zhang Daoling, made a personal visit to the Law Enforcement Hall.

From that moment on, not another word was spoken about Huang Wuji’s punishment.

This was the true extent of Peerless Peak’s tyranny and indomitable might.

And now, even if the Law Enforcement Hall had a legitimate reason, it was clear they couldn’t touch Chen Fan if Peerless Peak refused to surrender him.

Xiao Qianhe's expression fluctuated, torn between fury and uneasiness.

“Xiao Qianhe, take your men with you and get lost. Our Peerless Peak doesn’t cause trouble, but we’re definitely not afraid of it either. There is only one outcome for those who dare to mess with our Peerless Peak: death! You should be glad that First Senior Brother isn’t here, if not, hmph hmph.” Di Chen snorted twice coldly, causing Xiao Qianhe’s expression to change again.

Even if the entire Law Enforcement Hall was very furious, they could not do a thing to the Peerless Peak’s eldest senior brother, Huang Wuji. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Huang Wuji could already kill a Lesser Legendary realm expert with peak Manifestation realm cultivation. Now that he was stronger, perhaps even a Greater Legendary realm expert would not be a match for him.

In the Law Enforcement Hall, their hall master Elder Tian Xing was the only Greater Legendary realm expert. No one in the entire Law Enforcement Hall could suppress the few people from the Peerless Peak, not to mention there was still the Peak Master Zhang Daoling.

Chen Fan could vividly feel the sheer dominance and unyielding presence of Peerless Peak as he watched the Law Enforcement Hall’s people hesitate, stuck between retreating and stubbornly holding their ground.

It became abundantly clear: regardless of their authority, even if reason favored them, they held no qualifications to challenge Peerless Peak on its own turf.

Two cold lights shot out of Di Chen’s eyes. His voice also became cold all of a sudden. “What, still not leaving? Do I have to throw you out personally?”

Xiao Qianhe looked at Di Chen, his expression incomparably ugly. Today, he had not only failed his mission but also suffered an unbearable loss of face.

“Di Chen, you people from Peerless Peak had better stick to the rules and don’t let our Law Enforcement Hall get hold of your weakness, if not, hmph!” Xiao Qianhe let out a cold, heavy snort and waved his hand, bringing the Law Enforcement Hall’s people back.

Di Chen did not put Xiao Qianhe’s words to heart at all and said, “Chen Fan, our Peerless Peak never takes the initiative to bully others, but we also don’t allow anyone to bully us. Whoever dares to bully you, no need for words, just kill them, even if they’re from the Law Enforcement Hall!”

His words, deliberately unrestrained, echoed clearly in the air, reaching Xiao Qianhe’s ears. A final, bitter snort reverberated in the skies.
