Cheng Peng this time was obviously overconfident.
He overestimated the deterrent power of the Ma family from Ning State and severely underestimated who Zhang Xiaoshan standing in front of him was.
Zhang Xiaoshan approached Cheng Peng, his cold voice penetrating Cheng Peng's ears.
"I already gave you a chance to survive, but you didn't cherish it and repeatedly provoked me."
"Since that's the case, you have to die!"
Zhang Xiaoshan was not a bloodthirsty killer, but he showed no mercy to people like Cheng Peng.
For a common person, if Cheng Peng had suddenly unleashed the move 'Bull Trampling Mountain', it would have absolutely torn the opponent in half.
Cheng Peng's current ending is entirely his own fault!
Just as Zhang Xiaoshan was about to strike Cheng Peng, a thunderous shout suddenly came from afar.
The one who rushed over was a Qi Transformation expert of the Ma family!
Seeing a Qi Transformation expert from the Ma family arrive, Cheng Peng's face also revealed an ecstatic look!
With a Ma family Qi Transformation expert here, Zhang Xiaoshan was definitely doomed.
But when he looked over at Zhang Xiaoshan, all he saw was a cold and fierce sword light.
Zhang Xiaoshan casually unleashed a Sword Qi, and under the watchful eyes of many, Cheng Peng's head rolled off.
The person who rushed over from the depths of Mirror Lake Villa was none other than the Ma family's third son, Ma Zhengdong.
The old man of the Ma family has many children.
The most accomplished among them are the eldest, Ma Zhengting, the second, Ma Zhengwei, and the third, Ma Zhengdong.
The second, Ma Zhengwei, who is Ma Tong's biological father, was just a hair's breadth from reaching the Divine Realm Master before his sudden death.
The eldest, Ma Zhengting, is now the head of the Ma family at Mirror Lake Villa and a Divine Realm Grandmaster.
This time, Ma Zhengdong, who came, although only at the Qi Transformation Peak, was an exceptional talent at the Qi Transformation Stage.
If he continues his cultivation, he might have the chance to break into the God Realm in the future.
Ma Zhengdong was now extremely furious!
"You wretch, looking to die!"
"Dare to kill someone from the Ma family at Mirror Lake Villa!"
"Take my palm strike!"
As Ma Zhengdong's voice fell, a powerful True Qi gathered in his hand.
His fierce, unstoppable palm strike mercilessly bombarded towards Zhang Xiaoshan.
Seeing this scene, Ma Tong was extremely anxious and urged Ma Zhengdong to stop.
Although Ma Zhengdong was furious and wanted to kill Zhang Xiaoshan with one strike.
Upon hearing his niece's words, he slowly withdrew the mighty True Qi from his body.
His figure moved next to Ma Tong.
"Niece Tong, what's going on here?"
Ma Zhengdong still didn't know what had happened today.
He only heard that someone had injured Cheng Peng at the entrance of Mirror Lake Villa, so he rushed over immediately.
Upon hearing Ma Zhengdong's inquiry, Ma Tong immediately spoke.
"Uncle Dong, here's what happened."
"Earlier, I brought these two friends of mine..."
Ma Tong recounted the incident to Ma Zhengdong, in detail. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel⸺fire.net
After Ma Tong finished, Ma Zhengdong understood that this time, it was indeed Cheng Peng who was wrong.
However, even so, Zhang Xiaoshan didn't need to kill Cheng Peng.
Cheng Peng was a subordinate of the Ma family, and Mirror Lake Villa is the Ma family's headquarters.
Someone from the Ma family was beaten to death at the Ma family's doorstep, what kind of situation is that?
For a moment, Ma Zhengdong was unsure how to handle this matter properly.
Just then, a voice suddenly came from afar.
The speaker was, of course, the Ma family's second young lady, Ma Jingyi.
"Uncle Dong! You must seek revenge for Brother Cheng Peng!"
Ma Jingyi was very angry at this moment; Cheng Peng had previously done a lot for her.
She never thought Cheng Peng would be killed this time.
Ma Zhengdong did not immediately agree, only saying:
"This matter has its roots in Cheng Peng's wrongdoing; I'll need to think carefully about how to handle this."
Ma Jingyi was naturally unwilling to accept Ma Zhengdong's resolution.
She immediately added:
"Uncle Dong, our Ma family has developed from the Western Regions' Camel Gang all the way to the Green Horse and today's Xingsheng Group."
"Not solely relying on the contributions of our Ma family members."
"But also depending on the involvement of other experts and their dedication and effort."
"Now, for the Ma family of Mirror Lake Villa to move further."
"In recent times, a wide array of talents have been recruited."
"If we do not severely punish the murderer, it will only chill the hearts of other experts in the Ma family and affect the future development of the Ma family."
One must admit, Ma Jingyi's rhetoric was indeed quite skillful.
Clearly, for her own selfish interests, she wanted to embarrass Ma Tong, leaving her in a difficult position.
However, her words were eloquent and seemingly righteous.
After hearing her, Ma Zhengdong's gaze towards Zhang Xiaoshan indeed grew colder.
He solemnly stated, "What Cheng Peng did before was indeed wrong, but it didn't warrant death."
"Now that you've killed him, don't you think you owe the Ma family an explanation?"
