Multiverse of Marvel - Chapter 508: Jiang Nan
Chapter 508: Jiang Nan
All the people present didn’t expect a person would just teleport and slap Master Guang Bo. All froze on their spots as the tight sound of the slap came. Nobody expected such a situation to take place.
“Old man, watch what you are saying. Just because you live in a false and a close utopia and are descendants of a long lost empire don’t for a moment think that you are above us. I can obliterate you and your bloodline and not even bat an eye.” said John.
As expected it was John who slapped him. facing such humiliation nobody would be able to just take it without saying anything. John had always hated people who act high and mighty and not have the power to back it.
This old master was probably one of them. And as the Chinese novels go, he most probably ‘looked down’ on them. And John wasn’t going to hear any more long winded words of verbal abuse just for word count.
So he took action and stopped him right in his tracks. The old man froze for a second, confused by what just happened. He couldn’t even register the way he was slapped but then his eyes turned wide and he got extremely angry.
The old man had a spear in his hand. It was a typical spear, but there was a small difference. The tip of the spear was made of dragon scale. He swung the spear at John in full force.
The spear came at John sideways at a very fast speed. But as these stories go, this time too the spear stopped just before it hit the body of John. Stopped in the open air. The spear didn’t even bounce back!!
John used telekinesis to stop the spear.
“You… Who are you?” the old man asked, horrified by what he just saw. The spear was struck in his place and he couldn’t even release it from his hand. It was as if he was struck in his place, unable to move.
“I am just a guest who came to Ta Lo for a visit. And have a nice chat. Seems like I will have to force my way in to have a good talk.” John said. The other people who were practicing nearby already surrounded John with their weapons.
But they didn’t take any step forward. They were shivering.Though they didn’t understand how Master Guang couldn’t move from his position, they suspected that this person who slapped him must have done something to stop their Master.
“Stop!!”
A feminine voice came from a long distance. All turned their head to see who shouted. It was Michelle … uhhh sorry.. Jiang Nan. The elder sister of Ying Li. She was one of the heads that controlled Ta Lo and was their leader.
She almost came running in seeing the commotion but was stunned to see her sister after ages.
“Ying Li..”
“Elder sister…” Ying Li’s eyes became wet seeing her elder sister after such a long time. She hadn’t seen her since she left and finally today she got the courage to come back.
Thanks to John.
“You are back…” Jiang Nan mumbled under her breath. Her eyes were too filled with tears. She missed her sister a lot, but the rules of Ta Lo didn’t allow her to speak up about the injustice she faced after leaving with an outsider.
“Jiang Nan, see what your good family has done. She has brought demons back from their world and will soon cause the destruction of our peace.” master Guang Bo said but the next moment he was slapped hard on the other cheek by John. And this time it was much more harsh.
A tooth came out with just this hit.
“Old man, speak another word, you will lose your mouth.” John said, now with a more chilly voice. He didn’t want to hear another slander from this old man. One of the martial artists, seeing that John was distracted finally took the courage and used a rope dart ( The weapon Xialing used in the last fight) and threw at him.
But like the spear too, the rope dart stopped just before hitting the back of his head. John slowly turned back to look who had the courage to sneak attack him. The martial artist who did this trembled when he saw John’s eyes.
John just looked at him and the next second he was flung on the air by an invisible force. The martial artist screamed as he fell from a few feet high in the air.
“Stop!! Please stop!!.” Jiang Nan shouted as he saw one of her own men being bullied in such a way. She was surprised. Ki could be used as telekinesis to some extent but not the way John did. She didn’t understand how a person could do what this new man did.
(I know that people are a little confused about why I am stretching the shang chi arc. This is for setting up the last arc, so bear with me.)
