The Revenge of the Reborn Supreme Sovereign

Chapter 676: 634 Chapter: Punishing Gong Zhao! (8)

The Martial Arts World of Huaxia was ordered to surrender Qin Fan within one month, or face a massacre!

The Werewolf Clan and the Vampire Faction suddenly announced this insane proclamation in the Third World. When the bombshell dropped, the entire Third World erupted!

For foreigners, who was Qin Fan? Where did this nobody come from? However, the name’s distinctly Huaxian format quickly led them to suspect his nationality. But could a single person from Huaxia cause both the Werewolf Clan and the Vampire Faction to jointly issue such a globally shocking proclamation? What on earth had that guy done?

However, to the Martial Arts World of Huaxia, the name Qin Fan was all too familiar—so familiar it was legendary!

Half a year ago, he single-handedly toppled the Qin Family in Jiangzhou and forced the Ye Family of Lingnan into submission.

Following that, he ruthlessly slaughtered the Gambling King Li Juncheng and his daughter in Macau!

A few months ago, there was the battle to the death with Lan Xiaosheng on the Golden Summit of Emei Mountain.

And not long ago, he had stormed the Jinling Mansion, intimidating all of Huaxia’s high-ranking officials!

Such a figure, combined with his heaven-defying status as a young Grandmaster, how could the Martial Arts World of Huaxia remain indifferent?

Upon learning of the joint extermination proclamation by the Werewolves and Vampires, the entire Martial Arts World of Huaxia erupted in anger! Of course, they knew the proclamation was issued solely because of the wolf-slaying incident Qin Fan had caused at midnight.

The Werewolves had covertly infiltrated Huaxia, so how could they possibly be in the right? Did they not know that anyone entering without the Guardian Institute’s permission was considered an enemy?

Fuck!

Bullying! This was flat-out bullying!

Did they really think the current Martial Arts World of Huaxia was like the Late Qing era?

Under this extremely humiliating proclamation, even those in the Martial Arts World who harbored resentment or disapproval toward Qin Fan all stood united against a common enemy! The dignity of the Martial Arts World of Huaxia was not for some foreign barbarians to provoke. That was the bottom line!

「Inside the Guardian Institute’s office in Jinling.」

Hua Xiaotian was left reeling from the proclamation for a long time! He was astounded by their audacity and couldn’t believe they were treating the Martial Arts World of Huaxia as if it were still the Late Qing era!

His astonishment and disbelief faded, replaced by a sudden, loud laugh that echoed through his office!

Exterminate Qin Fan? How long has it been since the massacres in the Ninja World and Yin Yang Master World in Japan? It seems they haven’t thoroughly investigated Qin Fan’s background!

His eyes flickered with a crazed light. Hua Xiaotian paused for a moment before picking up his phone to call Qin Fan.

One thing at a time. As long as the Forbidden City hadn’t decisively sanctioned Qin Fan, his relationship with him would not change!

「In Dormitory 708.」

Immersed in the world of an online novel, Qin Fan was jolted back to reality by his phone’s sudden ringing. Seeing that it was Hua Xiaotian calling, he hesitated for a moment before sliding to answer.

"Is something wrong?" he asked, his voice calm and tinged with confusion.

"Grandmaster Qin, just now, the Werewolf Clan and Vampire Faction issued a public proclamation in the Third World for your extermination. They’re ordering the Martial Arts World of Huaxia to surrender you within a month, or they’ll carry out a massacre!" Hua Xiaotian declared, his tone grim and serious.

"Huh? A massacre of what?" Qin Fan asked, completely confused.

"That wasn’t specified in the proclamation, but the implication is twofold: one, massacre Huaxian martial artists abroad, and two, enter Huaxia and massacre the Martial Arts World!" Hua Xiaotian replied.

"Oh!"

Qin Fan responded indifferently, as if he had just heard something trivial. "Anything else?"

Hearing Qin Fan’s calm, almost dismissive response, Hua Xiaotian felt the urge to curse out loud!

"Grandmaster Qin, you—?" Hua Xiaotian hesitated, but he couldn’t bring himself to say what was on his mind.

"What about me? If there’s nothing else, that’s all. I’m hanging up!"

With a casual dismissal, Qin Fan ended the call.

The moment he put his phone down, however, a cold smirk swept across his lips.

Challenge this Heavenly Venerate? Heh... Interesting. The Werewolf Clan and the Vampire Faction, is that it? Even if you hadn’t come for me, I would have paid you a visit eventually! But this works out well. At least now, my actions will be justified.

With that thought, Qin Fan didn’t dwell on the matter. To him, this wasn’t an issue at all. During his five hundred years on the Cangqiong Continent, he had lost count of the number of times people had come to "exterminate" him!

He was used to it!

Shaking his head with a dismissive smile, he went back to reading his novel.

「On the other end of the call.」

Hearing the silence after Qin Fan hung up, Hua Xiaotian was completely baffled. His thoughts twisted and turned, but he couldn’t discern the meaning behind Qin Fan’s attitude.

"Grandmaster Hua, should we proceed with our plans?" his confidant suddenly asked, walking in hesitantly as Hua Xiaotian stood there with a furrowed brow.

Upon hearing this, Hua Xiaotian was first stunned. Then, with a look of visible annoyance, he said sternly, "Is this still the Late Qing period?"

The confidant flinched, a shiver running through him. "Yes, Grandmaster Hua, I understand!"

With that, he hurriedly walked out.

After his confidant left, however, a look of internal struggle appeared on Hua Xiaotian’s face.

Indeed, this was no longer the Late Qing era, but the Guardian Institute’s strength had significantly diminished compared to decades ago. He knew the reason the Werewolf Clan and Vampire Faction dared to make such bold statements was that they completely disregarded the Martial Arts World of Huaxia. To them, the current Martial Arts World might as well be as weak as it was during the Late Qing!

Gazing out the window, his face etched with sorrow, Hua Xiaotian mused aloud, "Sigh... where is the spring of the Martial Arts World? How can its past glory be reclaimed? Where is the Martial Arts World headed in the future? It’s rare to have such an unparalleled genius emerge, yet he’s trapped in a vortex where he could be sanctioned and wiped out at any moment! Can we only rely on those old seniors for secret protection?"

No one could answer his questions.

The reality was that the Martial Arts World of Huaxia was stagnant. He himself was a prime example. Despite being merely at the peak of the Transformation Realm, he had been lauded as the strongest man in Huaxia. That fact alone revealed the sorry state of the Martial Arts World.

The Third World was dominated by four dark giants: the Wolf King of the Werewolf Clan, Earl Geman of the Vampire Faction, Akman the King of Abilities, and the mysterious Masked Shura. Not a single one of them was from the Martial Arts World of Huaxia.

He, the so-called strongest man, how long could he possibly last against any of them?

Hua Xiaotian didn’t want to think about such a heart-wrenching question. He only knew that the current Martial Arts World was filled with ignorant frogs in a well. During his last trip to Japan with Qin Fan, he had almost fallen victim to a high-level Onmyoji’s Illusion Realm. Was that level of strength truly worthy of being called the strongest man in Huaxia? It was a slap in the face to the entire Martial Arts World!

Similarly, he was well aware that many foreign powers still deeply feared the Martial Arts World of Huaxia. However, their fear was not directed at its current members, but at the former kings who had long since retired into the shadows! It was their presence, their silent deterrence, that had kept the Martial Arts World of Huaxia safe all this time!

Unfortunately, many people didn’t understand this. They still believed that the current Martial Arts World held a significant place in the entire Third World!

Thinking about all this, Hua Xiaotian felt utterly drained. As the director of the Huaxia Guardian Institute, these were problems he was forced to consider. At this moment, he suddenly had the urge to resign.
