Chapter 133: A Line on the Ground, a Life in Hell

Raising his eyes, Qian Jin looked at Caeller with the same posture. He didn’t even get up and asked with indifference, “You came to honor the deceased? Opening the door in this manner shows no respect!”

Caeller was stunned at Qian Jin’s presence, “Why is this kid still alive? I remember that Lucas said 3 Level 9 Warriors were sent out that night. Two years without any news… I thought he was dead! As the four soldiers said, he is still alive!”

A dozen soldiers behind Caeller were shocked too! How arrogant was this young man who was standing in front so many people! Had he forgotten what he had done a few days ago?

Staring at Qian Jin, Caeller became more and more gloomy! Out of his expectation, the young man was a Level 10 Warrior! Fortunately, this time he brought a Demon Fighter who could definitely handle Qian Jin!

Caeller slowly took a step forward and made a very bossy appearance while pointing to Qian Jin, “So you really are alive! This should have nothing to do with you because this is an issue between the Cae Family and the Roll Family! However, you dared to intervene, which not only shows contempt for the laws of Zence Empire, but also provokes our Cae Family! Today I came here…”

Qian Jin suddenly clenched his Zhanmadao and got up. Step by step, he walked towards Caeller! The solemn look made everyone present suppressed to varying degrees!

Eyeing him from head to toe with great curiosity, Fabreidis wondered what he had gone through during the past two years! He had returned even stronger! He was totally different from the man he knew two years ago! Had he become an awakened Bloodline Warrior?

The same trace of curiosity appeared on the calm, middle-aged man standing on the right side,” Since when was there such a young man in Oakland? As the Mayor, I didn’t even know it at all!”

The strong young man stopped three meters away from Caeller, holding the Zhanmadao as it slowly slid on the ground! The metal collided with the stone, making creaky sounds, as if this line had not been painted on the ground, but rather engraved in the hearts of the spectators!

Holding booze in one hand, he leisurely walked in the yard with the blade in the other. A long straight line appeared.

“Whoever has come to ruin the funeral will die,” Qian Jin gently turned around to the mourning hall without looking at anyone, “once they step across the line!”

What an arrogant declaration! How overbearing his words were! He was too defiant! Everyone was just shocked, while a yellow sheepskin scroll flied to the Mayor.

“I suppose you are Mayor Sabonis? It seems like you are the only person, in the Oakland city, who has such a powerful aura! Please excuse my rudeness, for I’m keeping a vigil over the corpse of my classmate! As for whether I have violated the laws of Zence Empire, it should be very clear after you read that!”

Sabonis took the scroll with a faint smile, and he was struck by the words on it, The Certificate, Guardian for Roll Family: Qian Jin!

It had never come to his mind before that the guardian certificate purchased by Rollin when he was still in the first year as a warrior student was specifically prepared for this young man, Qian Jin! It had cost almost all his family had back that time! The eyes of that kid were pretty sharp! Two or three years ago Qian jin should have not been so strong as he was today!

“What’s that in your hand, Mayor Sabonis?” Feeling something was wrong, Caeller whispered to Sabonis: “Can I have a look?”

The mayor handed the certificate to him in a wry smile. Since this thing really existed, Qian Jin was definitely qualified to do whatever he wanted with the Roll family!

A guardian was a very strange existence. They held both identity and status in the Zence Empire, and were not in any way inferior to the authority whether it was in a family, business association, city, or even an entire state! The man was like a spiritual leader.

Under normal circumstances, the Guardian didn’t control the financial and personnel management as the authority did, but he had the right to deal with every event, especially when the head was not around the house!

Because this status was so special, every family would be very serious and cautious in the hiring process! It wouldn’t be done without a lot of observation!

Some families of powerful forces would simply hire their own warrior as their guardian, while others would rather not hire one to avoid the threat of takeover by the guardian!

As for the guardian, whose legal status was recognized by the Zence Empire, he was protected by a corresponding set of regulations called the Law of Guardians! Once someone became the guardian of a force, he could kill the assaulter who had infringed upon the family’s interests and not be convicted as guilty!

The guardian, as well as the law of the avenger, was also called the law of privilege over the law! However, you could seldom expect a guardian to take revenge for someone by killing an entire family, because to some extent, he was more like the city guardian. The main task was to protect the family members!

If the family was about to collapse, the guardian would not go for revenge, even if he had the ability! It seemed more of a superficial law, and few people would really want to do that!

Most of those who were qualified as a guardian had excellent fighting skills, which could often play a large part on the Human-Demon Battlefront! A conflict with a guardian was the last thing Zence Empire wished to have!

Looking at the certificate in his hand, Caeller’s mind clamped down naturally! Even if this Law of Guardian was more of a formality, Qian Jin had explained his side of the case! Even with the assistance from Mayor Sabonis and the law of Zence Empire, it was impossible if he wanted to kill Qian Jin without a great cost!

“Kid!” A warrior behind Caeller suddenly pushed to the front and strode over to Qian Jin! He drew his sword from its sheath, creating many sparks from friction! A chilling light flashed out while he moved his Warrior Energy! The single-driving leg helped in his thrust, and the sword directly locked towards the middle of Qian Jin’s back!

Qian Jin suddenly stopped and turned around to issue a simple wave with his Zhanmadao! A bright light mixed with a strong murderous sense shot across the sky! The man’s head was cut off in the single strike, and the blade glided straight down through the center of his body!

Puff! Blood jetted forth for a while until it finally stopped! His body slowly separated to the two sides with the eyes lost in a loss! There wasn’t a single spot on the blade! A touch of serenity and coldness was flowing through the blade like autumn water, but the sunlight that was faintly reflected off it was so astonishing!

Puff… Puff… The two halves hit the ground, raising some dust. Qian Jin went to the coffin without even looking back. The bystanders along with Caeller were all stunned in silence! The scene really got on their nerves, and their hands and feet became cold and weak!

“Anyone who crosses the line without kowtowing will end like this!” The words were so cold that a shiver went through everyone!

Died? Just like that? He really dared to kill people? And it was with a single chop! A Level 8 Warrior was split in half like that?

Even if he was the family guardian, he should not have killed the person in front of Mayor Sabonis! He should at least show some respect! He did not even think about it! He just split Sarathi, a Level 8 Warrior! The victim did not even manage to sidestep the attack!

Caeller stared at Qian Jin and the dead body that had been alive and lively before they came here! His heart was beating faster than ever! His obese left leg subconsciously retreated, but it was blocked by a stretched-out leg! A broad and thick palm stepped on his shoulder, which suddenly brought him endless confidence!

“Yes! What am I afraid of?” Caeller bitterly watched the figure that was in the coffin. “Yes, you may have become a Level 10 Warrior over the past two years… so what? You may have reached the peak, but why does that matter? I have Demon Fighters with me this time! Perhaps you could become one if you continued to disappear! Then, if you come back later, I might feel intimidated. As for now? It’s the perfect opportunity to get rid of you!”

Fabreidis could not help but raise his eyebrows! The strength and speed of the chop were really beautiful! However, it was the murderous air that deserved the compliment! He did not expend all his strength. He had startled the Level 8 Warrior with only his murderous intent before killing him!

However, Sabonis frowned! This young man was unexpectedly so ferocious! Moreover, it wasn’t just his weapon, but also his mind! This was even more important! As young as he was, his will was like steel! He didn’t even care about the presence of the mayor!

This was completely unprecedented! Mayor Sabonis looked around to Caeller, and then to the young man leaning over the coffin. He secretly nodded his head and made up his mind this time he had support the Cae Family! The fat pig was actually a coward, but on the other hand, he was particularly arrogant regarding the Cae Family’s origins. He had some secret selfish calculations, thinking that even if the Cae Family intended to extend their strength to Oakland, he could completely control the picture as long as he paid close attention. Therefore, the Cae Family could get some benefits without taking root in the city. He could sleep in peace without any anxiety.

As for the Roll family, Sabonis shook his head at Qian Jin! “The young man’s will might even rival steel, and compared to Rollin, it may be more difficult to control him. It is best to cut the weeds and dig up the roots. If he intends to settle down and develop in this city, he might grow out of control! There is nothing worse than being replaced by this little sh*thead! As long as I am still the mayor, it will never let it happen!”
