Chapter 614: Executing the nine clans is light

Li Chen's strike was too fast; he backhanded a slap that landed solidly on Huyan Xun's arrogant face!

The force was so great that it was even stronger than the slap he gave Chu Xiang yesterday!

Huyan Xun didn't even see how the other party struck; he only felt a giant force coming, and his whole person was like being hit by a wild bull, rolling directly off the horse's back.

With a "thud," he hit the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood mixed with broken teeth, half his face instantly swelling high!

Li Chen shook his hand, his tone cold, carrying a disgust as if looking at trash: "I'm asking you a question! What kind of nonsense are you babbling here?"

Huyan Xun was beaten dizzy, lying on the ground, covering his burning face, glaring at Li Chen in disbelief, and roared hoarsely: "You... you dare hit me?! Do you know who I am?! I am the nephew of Khan Huyan!"

Li Chen heard this, his eyebrows didn't even move, but instead said lightly to the soldiers beside him: "It seems he hasn't learned to speak human language yet. Beat him, beat him until he can answer questions normally. Anyone who dares to resist, kill without mercy."

The last four words were said lightly, but carried a chilling coldness.

The few guards brought by Huyan Xun were indeed not weak in cultivation; at this moment, they were shocked and angry, subconsciously wanting to draw their swords.

But hearing the four words "kill without mercy," and seeing the surrounding soldiers executing the order without hesitation, surrounding their master like wolves and tigers, their hands gripping the swords instantly froze.

At a vital border pass, publicly resisting the army was a capital crime!

They could only watch helplessly as Huyan Xun was dragged up from the ground by several soldiers, fists and kicks falling like raindrops, beating him until he screamed miserably.

Just as Huyan Xun was being beaten and crying for his father and mother, Li Chen turned his gaze to the people of the Xumi Lingxiao Pavilion beside him.

The leading old man had a calm demeanor and a deep gaze, clearly with not-so-bad cultivation.

Beside him were six young disciples, three men and three women, all wearing moon-white Taoist robes; the men were handsome, the women clear and beautiful, and at this moment they were all looking at Li Chen with slight surprise and curiosity.

Li Chen's tone softened slightly, and he asked: "You tell me, what happened just now?"

The old man was about to speak, but the young woman beside him who had almost been hit by the horse just now took the lead, her voice gentle and pleasant, clearly narrating the process of how Huyan Xun and others rode wildly, almost hitting her, and how the sect elders stepped in to stop it, and finally she bowed slightly: "Thank you, military master, for upholding justice."

Li Chen nodded, indicating he understood.

He turned to look at Huyan Xun, who was still being beaten on the other side, and asked the soldier executing the order: "Has he confessed? Does he admit to riding wildly and committing violence?"

The soldier who was beating him happily was stunned, his movements stopped, and he scratched his head blankly: "Ah? Does the boss want... want to ask this?"

Another soldier also stopped sheepishly, saying embarrassedly: "Uh, we were just busy beating him and forgot to ask..."

Li Chen: "..."

Xumi Lingxiao Pavilion group: "..."

All the surrounding onlookers: "..."

The scene fell into a strange silence, only the sound of Huyan Xun groaning in pain on the ground was exceptionally clear.

The surrounding people didn't know where to start complaining for a while.

Should they complain that this Commandant Cheng was daring enough to beat the new Khan's nephew to death?

Or should they complain that his soldiers were so "straightforward," beating him to death just because the superior said so, even forgetting the questioning process?

At this time, Li Chen paced to Huyan Xun, who was curled up on the ground, squatted down, his tone calm to the point of even being somewhat "reasonable": "I am a very fair person; they just said their version of events, but that is also a one-sided statement. Now I'll give you a chance to tell your version, and I'll judge who is right and who is wrong." ===== CHAPTER 615 =====
