Chapter 1507


    Windley could sense the dissatisfaction in their words, but right then he didn''t even have time to


    care about his son, Royce, let alone the others.


    Ignoring their questions, Windley turned to look in the direction of the boat and bellowed, "Master


    Chen, I have already taught those three a lesson. Please forgive me."


    Fade stood on the deck of the boat with his hands behind his back and said coldly, "Masters should


    not be insulted. Since they were taught a lesson, what about you?"


    Hearing this gave Windley goosebumps. He seemed slightly hesitant.


    But when he saw Fade''s firm figure on the opposite side, he recalled how he killed Raleigh in the


    Dragon Mausoleum. Suddenly, Windley shivered all over and dared not hesitate further.


    He raised his hand with a solemn look, gathered his positive energy, and then pped his lower


    abdomen.


    Suddenly, a crack was heard, and Windley''s face turned pale, his body shaking as sweat dripped


    down from his forehead.


    After doing all this, Windley couldn''t care less about his own self- inflicted pain. With gritted teeth,


    he looked in Fade''s direction, and shouted, "One must not insult a master. Although I, Windley Ma,


    have offended Master Chen unintentionally, I am still at fault. Hence, I will downgrade myself by a


    level for insulting Master Chen. I beg for Master Chen''s forgiveness."


    Fade gave a slight nod and replied, "Your attitude is not bad. Since that''s the case, let''s end it here."


    "Thank you, Master Chen. Thank you for showing mercy!" Thrilled and relieved, Windley


    immediately thanked him, cupping one hand in the other before his chest.


    As if it was not enough for only himself to thank him, he even had his son Royce, with his broken


    leg, bow to Fade.


    Everyone''s jaw dropped to the floor when they witnessed this scene unfold. They couldn''t believe


    what happened and kept rubbing their eyes in shock.


    "Master Ma? Apologizing to Fade? I''m not seeing things, am I?"


    "This is not a simple apology, Master Ma has even punished himself! Now, his strength has fallen to


    theter stage of the Earth Level."


    "What''s going on? Master Ma has been at the top of the Earth Level for many years, and he''s only a


    step away from the Heaven Level. But now, he''s even willing to downgrade. How did Fade do it?"


    Everyone was puzzled. At this moment, everyone on the wooden building was equally perplexed.


    Although the Moo family was baffled, they were delighted to see Fade with such overwhelming


    authority. After all, this was beneficial to the Moo family.


    As for the Chai family, needless to say, they were embarrassed. Originally, they thought that they


    would definitely win since Payton had invited Windley, the semi- master. However, no one expected


    such a turn of events.


    For a moment, everyone in the Chai family was anxious. Cadmus could no longer hide his


    frustration, he was pissed about his son''s broken leg. If it wasn''t for Windley standing in front of him,


    he would have came forward to fight him.


    However, Payton was an experienced elder, and his mind was not clouded with fury like everyone


    else. Instead, he looked at Windley and asked, "Master Ma, may I ask what happened? What made


    you be so-"


    Before Payton could finish, the pale-faced Windley interrupted, "Payton, I know what you want to


    ask, but there are some things that I can''t exin. I''m telling you that I broke Hod''s legs for both


    his and the Chai family''s good. Also, whatever Mr. Chen''s requests are, you''d better do it without


    any rebuttals."


    After that, Windley took Royce with him and got ready to leave.


    Upon hearing that vague reply, Payton frowned and wanted to probe further. But before he could


    ask, Windley had already left with Royce in a haste.


    Payton gazed at Windley''s dismissing figure with a puzzled frown. Then, turning to look at Fade,


    who remained on the boat, a doubtful expression took over.


    At this moment, Fade uttered icily, "Is the Chai family willing to withdraw from the city now?"

    Hearing Fade''s request again, almost all the members of the Chai family trembled, their faces a


    mixture of anger and anxiety.


    Immediately, everyone''s attention was focused on Payton, waiting for his decision.


    Based on his ownmon sense, Payton would never agree to this condition. However, Windley''s


    advice just now made him reconsider Fade''s identity and strength. He hesitated for a while, showing


    uncertainty.


    Molten anger filled Cadmus to the brim. He noticed his father''s hesitation and couldn''t help but urge


    through gritted teeth, "Dad, there is no need to hesitate. The Chai family should never agree to it. I


    truly don''t believe that Fade would dare to demolish our Chai family."


    Hodid on the ground and growled through his pain, "Grandpa, Fade is just good at martial arts.


    The Chai family has more than martial arts. Even if there is a real conflict, we will not necessarily


    lose."


    "Yes, the Chai family will never give in so easily."


    "The Chai family has umted years and years worth of hard work. He cannot dismiss it just like


    that."


    Words of generous encouragement rebooted the Chai family''s morale. Exhrated, they clenched


    their fists and shouted one after another with determination, looking like they were really ready to


    have a life-and-death battle with Fade.


    Touched by this, anger sparked in his eyes as Payton became determined with his decision.


    "Alright, goodds, this is how the new generation of the Chai family should be. Us, the Chai family,


    mustn''t-"


    However, just when Payton was about to deliver his grandiloquence, a figure rushed over hurriedly.


    At the same time, he yelled at him, "Master, something bad has happened. It''s not good."


    When he saw who it was, Payton''s expression froze. The messenger was Nelson, his trusted man


    and butler that stood by his side for more than forty years.


    Payton had always been cautious. After he invited Windley to battle on their behalf, he was still


    anxious, hence he had Nelson investigate Fade''s identity secretly.


    "Nelson, what''s wrong? Why are you panicking?" Payton saw Nelson and asked.


    Panting heavily with his face flushed red, he answered, "Old Master, Fade mustn''t be touched. You


    must not touch him!"


    "Nelson, what do you mean?" Confused as well, Cadmus voiced in irritation.


    When Payton listened to Nelson''s words, his heart skipped a beat and ugly thoughts loomed in his


    mind. "Could it be that Fade''s identity-"


    Nelson nodded even more violently, confirming, "Old Master, I''ve investigated that Fade is a skilled


    martial artist."


    "We knew that for a long time. Do we still need to investigate? What''s more, so what if he is an


    expert in martial arts? We''re the Chai Family, how can we be afraid of him?" Cadmus snorted.


    "Let Nelson finish!" Payton barked at Cadmus impatiently. Then, he urged, "Nelson, go on."


    Nelson added, "Fade is not any ordinary martial artist, but a Martial Arts Master."
