Chapter 11174: Chapter 11173: The Battle of the Three Kingdoms!
Boom!
Zhangsun Jie’s black fist landed on Lin Yi’s chest with a destructive force.
However, Zhangsun Jie’s expression changed immediately.
Lin Yi’s chest didn’t collapse like he expected, nor did it explode like a watermelon. It didn’t move at all.
“You seem to be very good at physical attacks?”
“What a coincidence, me too.” Lin Yi tilted his head and met Zhangsunjie’s shocked eyes.
Zhangsun Jie couldn’t even see how Lin Yi punched out-he felt his chest lighten. He looked down and saw a hole the size of a bowl.
Then, his consciousness quickly blurred.
The entire place was deathly silent as Zhangsun Jie collapsed.
When they saw Zhangsun Jie’s domineering attack, many of the fence-sitters had their thoughts stirred. They were even prepared to cheer for him.
After all, they knew that Zhangsun Jie was a quasi King, and he could easily deal with a foreigner like Lin Yi.
The Inner Court was the holy land that truly stood at the peak of strength other than the Divine Realm.
People from other places, no matter how outstanding they were, were destined to be mediocre here.
From the beginning to the end, they never thought that Lin Yi could beat Zhangsun Jie, and in such an unreasonable way!
“If there’s anyone else who wants to test me, please come along. I can still take it.”
Everyone was silent out of fear. No one dared to look him in the eye.
What a joke. Even the strongest Zhangsun Jie had ended up like this in front of him. If it were anyone else, wouldn’t they die even more miserably?
Where did this monster come from?
Not only everyone, even Ning Yuqi could not hide the shock on his face.
She knew that Lin Yi’s strength wasn’t simple, or else he wouldn’t have been so valued by Guan Zhengxuan. But she didn’t expect Lin Yi’s strength to be this exaggerated!
Killing Zhangsun Jie with a single hand, this kind of strength, even an ordinary true King’s Power would not be able to surpass it, right?
Little did he know that Lin Yi was stronger than Zhangsun Jie, but the difference between three hundred and fifty and two hundred and ninety wasn’t as big as it seemed.
Zhangsun Jie had kicked an iron plate this time.
The pinnacle of martial arts that he was so proud of was like an egg hitting a rock when it met Lin Yi’s intermediate god body.
This result was very normal.
No one said anything else.
The second branch’s Zhangsun Hong was directly struck into a charred corpse by Heavenly Judgement. The third branch’s Zhangsun Jie was also dragged away. Although he did not die on the spot, even if he received the best treatment, it was impossible for him to get up again in a short period of time.
In addition, Zhangsun Sheng, the current Duke Protector, had also become a vegetable.
Within a day, the three pillars of the Duke Protector’s estate had all collapsed. The heavy responsibility of supporting the family had completely fallen on Ning Yuqi, the wife of the Duke.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, everyone present would have thought that Ning Yuqi was the one behind all this, colluding with outsiders to seize the large family business of the Duke Protector’s Public House.
But now, Zhangsun Hong and Zhangsun Jie had indeed reaped what they sowed.
Even if the two brothers were unlucky in Lin Yi’s hands, they really couldn’t bring themselves to blame Lin Yi for what happened today.
Most importantly, Lin Yi’s strength was so terrifying that it was etched into everyone’s hearts!
If they really dared to stand up and cause trouble, what if Lin Yi’s temper wasn’t that good and he sent them to Zhangsun Hong?
Ning Yuqi coughed twice and said,” Let’s call it a day. Everyone, don’t go out and wander around. Some words are not pleasant to hear. We should at least leave some face for the Duke Protector’s Residence.”
The Head Butler immediately nodded.” Don’t worry, Madam. I will warn all the servants in the residence. I will not let them go out and gossip.”
His gaze landed on the few elders with the highest seniority in the Duke Protector’s Residence.
The elders looked at each other and sighed.” We’ll keep the disciples in check. Please rest assured, Madam.”
“Thank you, Granduncles and Steward.” Ning Yuqi bowed.
At this point, the power of the Duke Protector’s Mansion had officially fallen into her hands.
Even if everyone was dissatisfied in private, they could only complain a little. As long as she did not make any mistakes, she would not be able to turn the world upside down in a short period of time.
Ning Yuqi couldn’t help but secretly look at Lin Yi from the corner of his eyes. He couldn’t help but feel more respectful towards Lin Yi’s methods.
She didn’t seem to object to Lin Yi’s sudden arrangement, but she didn’t really care.
According to her thoughts, with her little foundation, it would not be easy for her to take over the power of the entire Duke Protector’s estate.
No matter how well the layout was designed, it would take at least a few months for it to succeed.
This was still the most optimistic estimate.
But when it came to Lin Yi, it didn’t even take a day, and he actually succeeded! Thinking back now, it was unbelievable!
More importantly, he had gotten rid of Zhangsun Hong and Zhangsun Jie openly, reducing the potential danger to the minimum.
Just this alone made Ning Yuqi convinced.
Unknowingly, Lin Yi’s image in her heart had become unfathomable. He was no longer someone she could touch.
Previously, she was still a little dissatisfied with her situation.
But now that she thought about it, it was a good thing that she became Lin Yi’s subordinate. Otherwise, Zhangsun Hong and Zhangsun Jie wouldn’t even know how they died in the end!
At the Chu royal residence.
The series of events that had occurred in the Duke Protector’s Residence had reached King Chu’s ears.
Lord Chu was originally waiting for good news from Zhangsun Sheng. When he heard the news, he was stunned. The Duke Protector’s estate fell into the hands of a woman just like that?”
Although he looked down on the Duke’s Residence, it was still a dignified Duke’s Residence. It was not something that could be swallowed up by just anyone.
How could a mere Ning Yuqi have such skills?
“Motherf * cker, looks like this king really underestimated Lin Yi. Zhangsun Sheng is a piece of trash, wasting my pot of wine!”
Lord Chu gritted his teeth in anger.
With his foresight, he could naturally tell that someone like Zhangsun Sheng would not be able to achieve anything big. However, with his support, it should not be a problem for him to be unable to accomplish anything, right?
In the end, he couldn’t even do the most basic thing, and Lin Yi benefited instead. What a pure piece of trash!
It wasn’t hard to tell that Lin Yi was the mastermind behind all this.
At this moment, a white-bearded old man sitting across from King Chu said,” A king should have a strict bearing. Please be careful with your words, Your Majesty.”
