Eps. 66 — Coup II
Jian Chen was speechless, he certainly understood immediately the words of the masked man, this attack seemed to be a coup.
“Thinking?” The masked man smiled mockingly at Jian Chen who was still oppressing him, “then kneel down then I will not p.”.
Before he finished his remark Jian Chen had already swung his hand forcefully making him instantly unconscious.
“Brother Jian, could you possibly know what he meant?” Ziyun looked at the masked man who had already fainted.
“This is a coup! The elder brother of the clan chief seems to be attacking the government of the Niu.” clan
“What will they do? Expel Uncle Zen out of government area.”
Jian Chen smiled faintly, Ziyun was obviously still naive with politics as well as the martial world. Jian Chen then explained that they should have killed the entire Meily family along with all who supported him, even the guards, maids, eunuchs, would have been killed as well.
Ziyun's face paled, she began to remember that Meily was there and that her best friend would…
“As long as there is a clan leader there they should be safe, maybe Meily will be hidden there.” Jian Chen understood Ziyun's worries. “For now should Miss Ziyun have to hide?”
“But I have to be there to help them?”
“Nona Ziyun, the adult martial world is much different from the martial world in the Academy. This is not a point struggle like the previous competition but a throne struggle, as long as someone can get what they want then they will do anything to achieve it including killing their own siblings.”
Jian Chen sighed then pointed at the masked person who fainted earlier, “Look even they did not hesitate to kill you earlier regardless if you were a woman or a princess of the Ye.” clan
With the act of murder, it is clear that masked people will kill everything indiscriminately in the area of clan government. Niu Zuan must have planned this from afar.
Jian Chen then told Meily to hide, she would take him somewhere safe after coming out of the restaurant.
The noise of the Niu clan residents was increasingly heard boisterously when there was an explosion from the central place of the clan plus more masked people were popping up.
Residents who want to find out what happened by entering the central area are blocked by masked people who line the guardrail.
“What are you doing? Who are you?” a resident of the Niu clan asked the masked person who was blocking him from entering.
“We are Mr Zuan's army, we have no evil intentions here and you guys please no one to come in if you don't want to get involved!” said the masked man firmly.
“What you're doing here is against the rules, I can't believe you let us in!”
The residents began to shout loudly even about to forcefully break through the masked people.
“What are you deaf! This is an order from Mr. Zuan. If you dare to barge in we do not hesitate to report to Mr. Zuan to punish you. Mr. Zuan advised that anyone who enters will be put to death with his family without mercy.”
The residents of the Niu clan began to hesitate when they heard the threat to their families, obviously the masked man was not kidding right now. They certainly have great respect for Niu Zuan and no courage to argue.
By the time the commotion broke out Jian Chen and Ziyun had already started to move. Jian Chen brought Ziyun to an Association shop belonging to the Miou clan that did have a branch here.
Although the Miou clan Association was in turmoil it remained open to the public, as if they were not disturbed by the awkward situation right now.
“Young Master, Beautiful Miss, welcome to our store.” A female servant greeted the two of them kindly.
“I want to meet with your manager.” Jian Chen has no pleasantries so he took out the jade pendant that Miou Fan gave him last time. “Give this to him and he will understand.”
The female servant scratched her head staring at the jade pendant, she did not recognize it but therefore she immediately obeyed Jian Chen's request.
“Young Master, please forgive my negligence not knowing the arrival of Young Master.” The mothers introduced her name as Miou Xie but often called Aunt Xie, she is the manager of this store association.
Aunt Xie broke out in a cold sweat as suddenly her workers carried a jade pendant. Aunt Xie naturally knew the pendant as the sign holding it was the highest important person of the Association, there were only 11 pendants like this and most of them were owned by the great Elders of the Miou clan.
Jian Chen and Ziyun were taken to a special room after saying she wanted to speak, Aunt Xie even had to use her personal place to welcome an important guest like Jian Chen.
“Aunt Xie, I'll be honest with you why I'm here.” Jian Chen did not have any more time or introduce his name because now the coup was beginning.
In short Jian Chen in addition to asking the Association to protect Ziyun here, he wanted the association to also help save the Niu clan from the Niu Zuan coup.
Jian Chen already knew that every association shop hired many warriors in it, he wanted the warriors to come help the Niu clan.
“Coup?!”
Aunt Xie was shocked, she had already expected there to be a major event in the Niu clan but who did not expect that this was a coup.
Jian Chen nodded, he then explained that there was Miou Lin there and it was likely to be finished considering that Ziyun alone would be killed regardless of her status.
Aunt Xie's face turned white hearing that, Miou Lin is a big figure in the Miou clan who has a big influence in it, saving her is an obligation.
Aunt Xie would fulfill Jian Chen's request as quickly as he could. “Young Master, there are three more shops belonging to the Association in the Niu clan do I have to contact him?”
“Use all the power that can be done now! Also if you can. spread rumors to the Niu clan residents that this is a coup. I hope the warriors of the Niu clan will move and help.”
Aunt Xie nodded, she immediately said goodbye for a moment to send letters to the other three association shops.
Soon Aunt Xie was back in the room, behind him were 5 warriors in the peak Soul Realm. “They are bodyguards who happen to be near the store, for other warriors, I need time to call everyone here.”
Jian Chen smiled in satisfaction at the quick and perceptive performance of the association, so he did not have to wait any longer here.
On the other hand, Ziyun was just speechless listening to everything, she was curious about Jian Chen's status in the Miou clan Association which looked very respected even by store managers like Aunt Xie.
“Brother Jian, where are you going?” Ziyun asked as Jian Chen suddenly said goodbye to her.
“I will go to the government area to help them, I must help the government of Niu Zen not to be overthrown.”
Ziyun was surprised and wanted to join him but Jian Chen forbade it, Ziyun would not be able to see the war at her age now. There will be a lot of murder and blood in sight.
“Young Master, let them come along?”
Seeing Jian Chen going there made Aunt Xie worry about Jian Chen's safety so he ordered the 5 bodyguards to come with him considering Jian Chen looked very young.
Jian Chen nodded, no problem, as he was about to exit the shop Ziyun hugged him from behind.
“Brother Jian, please return safely and bring Meily here.” Ziyun's voice shook slowly, her eyes twinkled almost in tears.
“Just relax, I'll save everyone..” Jian Chen turned to face Ziyun with a gentle smile.
Ziyun nodded, he would wait for Jian Chen's arrival at the association. On the same side Jian Chen and the 5 warriors behind him began to move towards the clan government area.
