Starting as a War God: Global Goddesses Blocking my Door

"You say my diamond is street stall merchandise?"

Ye Fan's mockery had left Huang Zicheng so angry he could practically smoke through his nostrils.

Tonight's proposal event was meticulously prepared by him, customized from a globally renowned high-end jewelry store overseas, genuinely costing a full sixty million.

He hadn't expected that not only would Ye Fan crush the specially ordered diamond ring, but also ridicule it as street stall merchandise.

Resentment, boiling!

Rage, igniting!

After the heavy provocations, Huang Zicheng said with hatred, "Ye Fan, oh Ye Fan, your arrogant demeanor is truly loathsome. Since that's the case, let's settle this tonight!"

"Settle this? Fine! How do you want to settle it?" Beneath the night sky, Ye Fan sneered.

Huang Zicheng fixed his gaze on Ye Fan, his eyes cold and harsh as he said, "Elders, come out!"

"Young Master Huang, we are here!"

At Huang Zicheng's command, three gaunt old men emerged from the shadows.

Looking over, one could see these three elders were all gaunt and thin with white hair, dressed in gray robes, looking like flickering candles about to be snuffed out by a mere breath of wind, as if a gentle breeze could end their lives.

But Ye Fan noticed that with every step these three elders took, they emitted a subtle but strong aura, and their cold, dark eyes were like those of a ruthless physician who could snatch your life and soul with just a glance, sending a shiver down your spine.

"Looks like you came prepared, Young Master Huang!" Ye Fan mocked with a laugh.

"Of course!"

Huang Zicheng said through clenched teeth, "Ye Fan, to kill you, I prepared a backup plan! I had predicted that if the Green-shirted Sword God Wu Cangqiong couldn't kill you, you would surely come to Violet Community. So, I laid a trap here as well. As long as you dare to come, I'm certain that you won't be able to leave!"

"Are you so sure about that?" Ye Fan remained unconcerned.

Huang Zicheng sneered, "Don't believe me? Humph! I don't mind telling you, these three elders are from the East Sea Chen Family, the three great retainers, known in Jianghu as the Soul Reaping Tri-Elders. Any one of them is no weaker than the Sword God Wu Cangqiong, and together they can even kill a Martial Arts King!"

"Kill a Martial Arts King? That sounds interesting," Ye Fan mused, stroking his chin.

As the Junior Pavilion Master of the oldest sect in the world, the Medicine God Pavilion, Ye Fan was well aware that once a person broke through their physical limits, they could become an Ancient Martial Artist. Each Ancient Martial Artist's fighting capability was extremely terrifying, far surpassing that of ordinary martial artists, to the point where even elite special forces might not stand a chance against an Ancient Martial Artist.

While formidable, Ancient Martial Artists could break through again once they reached a certain realm, becoming a Martial Arts Grandmaster who commanded the respect of thousands.

Each Martial Arts Grandmaster was staggeringly powerful. If endorsed by a nation, a Grandmaster was like a killing machine on the battlefield, able to take heads as easily as plucking items from a bag amidst an army of thousands.

But Martial Arts Grandmasters were not the pinnacle for Ancient Martial Artists. Above them lay the Martial Arts King Realm, which, for the sake of convenience, is also referred to as the Martial King.

Once one reached the Martial King realm, they could be called a first-class expert of the era, causing even Grandmasters to pale in their presence. Some Martial Kings even receive royal welcomes when they visit smaller countries.

What surprised Ye Fan was that the Soul Reaping Tri-Elders from the East Sea Chen Family could join forces and potentially kill a Martial King. He had not expected Huang Zicheng to hold such a trump card.

"What? They are the Soul Reaping Tri-Elders of the East Sea Chen Family?" Su Ruoxue paled upon hearing this.

Ye Fan asked, "Ruoxue, you know of the Soul Reaping Tri-Elders?"

"I've heard of them!"

Su Ruoxue spoke candidly, "On a previous occasion to secure a partnership, I visited the East Sea. The Chen Family is the first major family there and ranks within the top ten in the entire country. Their foundations are incredibly deep. The Soul Reaping Tri-Elders are the Chen Family's iconic super experts. It's said that they hold a high status within the Chen Family and would not take action unless it's a significant matter!"

"That's right! Ye Fan, are you scared now?" Huang Zicheng burst into laughter.

Ye Fan said in surprise, "The Soul Reaping Tri-Elders hail from the East Sea Chen Family, what's your relationship with them?"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"My mother, Chen Yao, is the most beloved daughter of the Old Master Chen of the East Sea Chen Family. What do you think our families' relationship is?" Huang Zicheng said with a chilly smile.

"The Old Master Chen from the East Sea is your maternal grandfather, no wonder!"

Hearing Huang Zicheng's answer, Ye Fan had an epiphany. He finally understood why the Huang Family went bankrupt and how they managed to reorganize in such a short time – it was with the aid of the East Sea Chen Family.

With the solid backing of Old Master Chen, Huang Zicheng naturally acted without restraint, not only kidnapping Su Ruoxue to propose to her but also inviting the Green-shirted Sword God Wu Cangqiong to ruthlessly attack him.

But Huang Zicheng never expected that the Green-shirted Sword God Wu Cangqiong would not be his match, and shortly after that, Huang Zicheng called upon the terrifying Soul Reaping Tri-Elders.

With the help of the Soul Reaping Tri-Elders, Huang Zicheng said arrogantly, "Ye Fan, tonight is the day you die!"

"Is that so?" Ye Fan gave a cold smile.

Su Ruoxue, fearing that Ye Fan would get hurt, looked at Huang Zicheng with a panic-stricken face, "Brother Zicheng, please I beg you, don't harm Ye Fan!"

"Ruoxue, don't plead for him. I have irreconcilable issues with Ye Fan – he must die tonight!" Huang Zicheng's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Because of Ye Fan, he lost his most beloved woman, Su Ruoxue, who married Ye Fan and bore him a bastard daughter, Ye Ling'er.

Because of Ye Fan, the foremost rich and powerful Huang Family of the Central Plains suffered bankruptcy. If it hadn't been for the assistance of the East Sea Chen Family, he would probably be reduced to a homeless cur by now.

Consumed by the vendetta of losing his wife and his family's bankruptcy, Huang Zicheng's vision was clouded with hate, and he was determined to kill Ye Fan in revenge.

In a state of panic, Su Ruoxue said, "Brother Zicheng, there's no need for you and Ye Fan to fight to the death!"

"Ruoxue, don't say anymore!" Huang Zicheng exclaimed bitterly.

He understood that only with Ye Fan dead would Su Ruoxue give up on him. Then, he might seize the opportunity. As long as Ye Fan lived, he could never win Su Ruoxue's heart.

Ye Fan mockingly said, "Ruoxue, don't plead with him, just a few old fellows in their twilight years – they're not my match!"

"Ye Fan!" Su Ruoxue said, her face full of worry.

Seeing Su Ruoxue worry for Ye Fan sparked jealousy in Huang Zicheng, and he waved his hand and commanded, "I would kindly ask the three elders to take action and eliminate Ye Fan for me!"

"Piece of cake!"

Upon hearing Huang Zicheng's command, the Soul Reaping Tri-Elders all gave a sinister smile, eyeing Ye Fan as if they were the spider and he, the fly – squashing Ye Fan was as simple as crushing an ant.

The next moment, the leading elder said, "Third, this brat is yours to handle!"

"What? Leave it to me? You two are trying to slack off again?" The third elder said with displeasure.

With a sly grin, the second elder said, "Third, you haven't exercised in a long while. Big brother and I are giving you a chance to warm up your bones a bit!"

"Don't even try that, I know you two just want to be lazy!" the third elder said, glaring angrily.

After a pause, the third elder stroked his beard, showing impatience as he said, "Fine, fine, I'll do it. I've heard the Central Plains is full of fine wines, and the sooner we finish this kid off, the sooner I can enjoy a drink!"

"Now, that's the spirit!" the eldest and the middle elder both chuckled.

Then, the third elder looked disdainfully at Ye Fan and said, "Kid, don't delay me from my fine wine. If you stand still and don't move when I strike, perhaps I'll leave you a whole corpse. If you dare to make a move, be careful, I might just blow your head to bits and leave you without a corpse to mourn, and that would be truly pitiful!"

The third elder appeared relaxed, as if Ye Fan was nothing but a minor character, incapable of resistance, with only death waiting for him.
