Hurry Up and Apologize to Uncle Qin! (10)

One sentence made Horne tremble.

Qin Chu, refusing to be Hero, chooses to give up entirely. The Magic Creature army marches forth, including Magic Creature Four Heavenly King, the Seventeen Demon General, and the most terrifying Demon King, Nag... Who can withstand these powerful beings? How many humans will die as a result?

Hundreds of thousands, millions?

If Wadsworth, Saint Monica, Augustus, and others knew that it was their provocation that caused Qin Chu to refuse to be Hero, they would be absolutely furious. He would definitely die, and his parents, sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, and even relatives and friends—everyone related to him—would be implicated.

It's estimated that none of them will survive.

At the thought, Horne's body trembled involuntarily.

His face turned deathly pale, saliva was rapidly increasing in his mouth, and his throat was moving involuntarily.

Just then, he suddenly saw Qin Chu's lips curl up into a provocative smile, a smile that seemed particularly glaring.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Chu leaned his head forward slightly and spoke in a voice that only Qin Chu and Horne could hear:

"You coward, come and hit me then..."

Hiss!

Qin Chu's provocation made Horne's mind race, and his blood boiled.

He was originally a desperado. It was because of his bravery, ruthlessness and viciousness that he was chosen by the First Prince to do some dirty work that was inconvenient to do in public. Under the First Prince's arrangement, he entered the army. In the battle against the Magic Creature, he made some decent achievements because of his fearlessness. The First Prince used his influence to promote him to general.

His personality was inherently simple and crude, and because of Qin Chu's provocation, the fear that had just emerged from the depths of his heart instantly turned into Wrath.

With one hand gripping Qin Chu's collar and the other clenched into a fist, his eyes bloodshot: I'll beat you to death!

A fist the size of a sandbag, imbued with earthy yellow Battle Qi, slammed down towards Qin Chu's face.

Seeing this, Angelica cried out in alarm and tried to stop them, but Violet held her shoulder down.

Violet's face was simply adorned with a gentle smile. She knew very well that Qin Chu was the one to handle things here; this man wasn't the type to willingly suffer a loss.

There were many ways to handle this matter, but Qin Chu chose the most impulsive one, which must have been part of his plan.

She and Angelica should just watch and wait.

The surrounding nobles screamed in alarm, and Nicholas's expression changed drastically. He knew that Horne wanted to provoke Qin Chu, but he thought it was just a provocation. He never expected that Horne would actually make a move, and even use his Battle Qi.

Seeing the fist hurtling straight at his face, Qin Chu suddenly smiled.

Horne's heart skipped a beat, and he inwardly cried out in alarm, realizing it was too late to take it back.

With a loud crack, just as the fist was about to strike Horn's face, Qin Chu's right hand swiftly caught Horne's fist, and the massive fist instantly remained motionless.

This scene made Horne and Nicholas's hearts skip a beat.

Should he grab Horne's fist, which was brimming with Battle Qi?

When did you Hero, acquire such strength?

"Everyone saw it, he hit me first!" Qin Chu said with a smile.

Horne swung his arm forcefully, as if trying to pull his fist back.

But it was completely useless.

Qin Chu's fingers were like iron clamps, firmly gripping Horne's fist so tightly that he couldn't move at all. And that wasn't all; Qin Chu's arm began to gradually exert force.

The bones in his fingers made a strange, creaking sound as they rubbed together. The intense pain caused Horne's face to turn bright red, his entire face contorted in agony, and his body to tremble uncontrollably.

The Battle Qi attached to his fist was also under tremendous pressure, emitting a metallic grinding sound.

Earth-attribute Battle Qi may lack offensive power, but it is absolutely the strongest in terms of defense.

But now, even Horne's well-cultivated earth-attribute Battle Qi couldn't withstand Qin Chu's pure brute force. With a pop, the Battle Qi attached to his fist shattered instantly.

Then, there was another snap.

Horne's eyes widened suddenly, and a piercing scream Heavenbreaker.

His entire fist was crushed by Qin Chu.

His finger bones were crushed into fragments, and his fingers and palms were reduced to a pile of rotten flesh, with sticky residue dripping down the edges of Qin Chu's palms.

The ten fingers are connected to the heart!

Even though Horne was fearless, he couldn't withstand it at this moment, and a pig-like scream came from his mouth, a shrill howl that made people's scalps tingle.

He finally released Qin Chu's collar, pressing his left hand hard against the spot on his right hand that had been crushed, but blood still gushed out like a tap.

Large beads of sweat rolled down his pale face.

Just moments ago, I was thinking that this so-called Hero was just a weakling I could crush with a flick of my wrist. Who would have thought that I would be the one crushed?

Nicholas, standing behind, was also deathly pale, his eyes filled with terror. He couldn't believe that this Hero possessed such terrifying power. Hadn's hero only been summoned less than half a month ago? How could he have become so powerful already? Horne's level was sixty-five...

He vaguely regretted colluding with the eldest prince.

Qin Chu also felt that he could now show some of his strength. This person who had come to him was perfect to be sacrificed. Seeing Horne's painful appearance, his smile became even colder.

With a sudden, swift movement of his right hand, before the other could react, he grabbed Horne 'Horne head, lifting him into the air with a whoosh, and then...

Bang...

He slammed Horne face down, slamming him heavily onto the ground.

The ground trembled, and several stone slabs were smashed into pieces.

I vaguely heard a cracking sound; I wonder if it was a skull fracture.

His nasal bone was completely shattered, several teeth were knocked out, and blood kept gushing out from below his face.

Whew... that felt good.

Shaking off the dirt from his hands, Qin Chu smiled, feeling quite pleased with himself for demonstrating his strength.

Silence reigned all around.

When Qin Chu saw the shocked looks on everyone's faces, he was speechless.

Could it be that I inadvertently revealed too much strength?

Well, whatever.

Looking at Horne, who was lying on the ground twitching slowly like a dying toad, Qin Chu felt very apologetic. "General Horne, I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have hit you so hard, I almost killed you..."

Horne had just raised his head slightly, suddenly heard these words and, unable to catch his breath, coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Qin Chu ignored the guy and flashed in front of a soldier whose head was wrapped in bandages. He ripped the bandages off his head, revealing his smooth forehead.

The soldier frantically tried to cover himself, but it was too late.

"Your injury, is it fake?"

"Interesting."

"You disguised yourselves as wounded soldiers, deliberately coming to provoke the Hero, attempting to disrupt the united Skyvault Continent against the Magic Creature..."

Qin Chu immediately showered these people with high praise.

"Are you capable of bearing this crime?"

Qin Chu walked step by step to Horne's side. "Tell me, who is behind this?"

Horne, barely managing to turn around, stared intently at Qin Chu with a pair of defiant eyes, his gaze like that of a mad beast, as if he wished he could devour Qin Chu alive.

"No one ordered me to do this, I just don't like you..." Horne growled in a low voice, though his speech was slightly slurred because he had lost too many teeth.

Qin Chu wasn't angry; he simply held up one finger.

"What's the meaning?"

"You have three chances to be patient with me. If you use up all three chances, I will kill you..."

As he spoke, Qin Chu held up a second finger, which also counted as Horne's question.

Horne's bloodshot eyes widened, and his body instinctively struggled and twisted. "You, you can't kill me! I'm a soldier of the Orwell Empire. According to the Empire's laws, only a military court can..."

The third finger is raised.

The next second, Starflame Battle Aura suddenly erupted, and the silvery-white flames coiled around Qin Chu's arm like writhing venomous snakes.

A flash of silver light, and Qin Chu's fist hurtled straight for Horne's face.

"It's the First Prince!"

Thank you Tricis for the donation, thank you for your support.

Chapter 120 Hurry up and apologize to your Uncle Qin! (10)

Qin Chu's ruthlessness was on full display at this moment; he said he would give Horne three chances, and he meant three chances, not even a second more.

When the three seconds were up, the silver fist smashed directly into Horne's head without the slightest hesitation.

The bright silver flames, writhing like venomous snakes, sent chills down Horne's spine. As the silver light drew closer, his fear exploded, and he could no longer bear it, screaming out the name of the mastermind behind it all.

The eldest prince.

However, the fist's speed did not stop; it continued to approach.

Just when Horne thought his head would be smashed into mincemeat in the next instant, the fist suddenly veered to the side and slammed into the ground next to Horne's head with a thud.

In an instant, the earth cracked.

The silver flames even melted some of the broken stone slabs.

The Battle Qi, carrying shattered stones, scattered in all directions, directly hitting Horne's side.

Horne's cheek was riddled with countless wounds from the scorching rubble, half of his face was mangled and torn apart, revealing his white cheekbone underneath.

Horne did not die, but his body was writhing like maggots due to the excruciating pain.

He didn't even have the strength to scream; all he could manage were groans.

"It would have been so much better if you had listened to me earlier?" With that, Qin Chu finally stood up.

Nicholas looked ashen-faced.

The Hero has directly broken through this barrier; this is a direct conflict between two important figures.

Nicholas trembled, hoping he wouldn't be implicated.

A deathly silence enveloped them. The group of minor nobles exchanged glances, none of them uttering a sound, all knowing they had overheard something they shouldn't have.

Some of the smarter ones have already started secretly preparing to slip away, fearing that this matter will involve them.

This level of conflict is not something minor nobles are qualified to get involved in. Damn it, I've become a mere spectator.

Just then, the sound of horses' hooves came from not far away.

The sound of hooves grew clearer and more frequent, and the dense circle hurriedly dispersed to both sides. Then, a person riding a tall white horse appeared from behind.

The warhorse charged straight up to Qin Chu before suddenly stopping.

The eighteen attendants behind him moved in perfect unison.

Both the warhorses and the attendants displayed exceptionally high qualities.

At the very front, atop a large white horse, sat a young man in his twenties dressed in a gold velvet outfit.

He had a square face, sharp eyebrows, and bright eyes, with a long sword hanging at his waist.

Though he remained silent, he exuded an air of authority.

Even if you don't know this person's identity, just by seeing him, you can clearly feel what true nobility means.

Lance.

Crown Prince of the Orwell Empire, eldest son of Wadsworth, and the most promising heir to the throne.

Although Qin Chu thought Lance and Wadsworth looked nothing alike, if they were on Earth, Qin Chu would definitely strongly suggest that Wadsworth get a paternity test to see if he was being cuckolded.

Even though the person in front of him was Hero summoned with great effort by the Thirteen Sages of the Skyvault Continent, a person destined to save the entire world, Lance's expression remained arrogant, and he didn't even dismount his warhorse.

A pair of brown eyes swept over Qin Chu with a wolf-like cruelty, their hostility and murderous intent toward the Hero almost undisguised.

He is very strong.

While not quite at the level of Rosweisse, she was still approaching level 80, and probably even stronger than Nicholas had told him.

"You are Qin Chu..." The arrogant voice was filled with disdain. He possessed the most noble bloodline in the entire Orville, and he had every right to be proud.

Speaking of which, at the banquet that welcomed him, many members of the royal family were present, but Lance was nowhere to be seen.
