Hebron's expression changed as soon as he heard Fade. He sensed the threat and quickly shouted, "No, don't kill me. We'll compensate in any way you want. We..."
"I want you... to pay with your life!" Fade shouted coldly. His fingers formed a sword and instantly slashed down.
Hebron and the others were shocked and they quickly dodged as they tried to resist his attack.
Fredrick, York, and the others even exclaimed, "Fade Chen, don't you dare kill..."
Even before they could finish shouting, the virtual sword fiercely cut through the air. Following it were four heads flying through the air before rolling onto the ground, leaving trails of blood behind.
Hebron and the others instantly died as they lifelessly laid on the ground.
Meanwhile, a deadly silence spread throughout the hall. Everyone was dumbfounded as they had never expected it to end like this.
When Hebron appeared, almost everyone thought that it meant victory for the Flying Dragon Clan while Fade was doomed for.
However, Fade spoke with his actions. He defeated Hebron in two simple moves and made him repent as well as admit his mistakes.
Everyone then thought that it would end with the Flying Dragon Clan admitting their mistakes. They never thought that Fade would be so decisive to kill Hebron and the others.
Hebron was a Heaven Level martial artist and an elder of the Flying Dragon Clan at the same time. He was definitely one of the high ranking members in the Flying Dragon Clan.
Now that Fade had killed him, he had definitely offended the entirety of the Flying Dragon Clan.
Many of them wore looks of incomprehension for a brief moment.
In their eyes, Hebron had admitted his mistakes and already gave in. He was even willing to compensate. Fade should've gone with the flow and let him off. This way, he could gain the goodwill of the other party and even a huge compensation. It was literally killing two birds with one stone.
However, now that Fade had killed Hebron and the others, the nature of the matter had completely changed. He could naturally forget about the compensation as the Flying Dragon Clan wouldn't let the matter pass. They would ultimately seek their revenge.
At that moment, everyone shook their heads and sighed. They felt sorry, pitiful, and even worried for Fade.
However, he didn't take these matters to heart.
Upon putting the virtual sword away, his eyes fell on Fredrick and York. He looked at their bloodshot eyes that were filled with hatred. He spoke in a cold, yet calm voice, "If you want revenge, come on. I will take on whatever you throw at me."
"However, there's one thing I want you to remember. If the Flying Dragon Clan dares to hurt anyone close to me, no matter the result, I can tell you that the Flying Dragon Clan will definitely cease to exist!"
As soon as he finished talking, he snorted coldly and waved his arm, "Scram!"
Although they were full of anger and hatred, Fredrick and York didn't dare to act. They got up from the ground with difficulty and left the scene with the other members of the Flying Dragon Clan.
As the Flying Dragon Clan left, the magnates of East Coast City awkwardly stood on the spot.
Particularly, the Hsiang family and the Qin family. They were now cowering in the crowd, not daring to meet Fade's eyes in fear of him killing them with his anger.
After all, he even dared to kill a Martial Arts Master from a clan. They were from the secular world and Fade wouldn't be soft-hearted.
The other rich and powerful magnates who didn't directly offend Fade started to think about how they should carry out their next moves.
While they were pondering, Thamar stood out from the crowd and respectfully knelt to Fade. "Master Chen, the Ceng family of East Coast City will serve you as our sovereign. We will go through hell for you and obey your every order," he begged.
Fade looked at Thamar and figured that this old man was really cunning. However, he needed such a cooperative person to win the people's hearts.
Therefore, he waved his large hand and spoke to Thamar, "The Ceng family will be rewarded with three silver bottles of Sacred Water and one golden bottle of Sacred Water."
Although the other cities didn't expand as fast as East Coast City.
However, this was the digital era and news had already spread fast. Everything that happened in East Coast City was sounded to other nearby places and instantly boosted Sacred Waters' sales.
There even was a point in time where the entirety of the country was talking about Sacred Water.
Following the hot topic of Sacred Water, was the previous hot topic, which was martial arts.
Each sect came out of seclusion to make disciples while many ordinary people started to get in touch with martial arts and sects.
Any herb, book, or class regarding martial arts all became popular within society. It was as if the whole country's citizens were starting to practice
martial arts.
There was even an increase in information regarding martial arts on the internet.
All sorts of information spread on the internet and led to various discussions and debates. All of these included the classification of a martial artist's strengths, competitions between sects and clans, and the sequence of martial artists according to their strengths.
Fade took a brief glance and saw that a lot of the information was previously controlled. Now, they were all being published online.
It seemed as if they were carried out with permission from many related departments. Otherwise, according to the country's control previously, these data wouldn't be allowed to be published online.
"The people above are speeding up the process of sects and clans coming out of seclusion. Why are they popularizing martial art knowledge? Could there be something big happening?" Fade thought to himself. He was considering the factors behind the messy information on the internet.
However, he lost the source of some important clues when he left Capital City. For the time being, he didn't know anything else apart from his guesses.
