Jiang Chen had heard similar words many times, but, unlike others, Li Tianqun uttered them calmly and openly and didnât beat around the bush like others did. Hence, this was why he seemed even more overbearing than others.
âJust stop talking drivel. If you want to fight, letâs fight, and let me see why you are so proud of yourself,â Jiang Chen said. He had run into similar ordeals many times, and it could be said that he was experienced in this. Saying anything now was useless, and it was only oneâs fists which were the most convincing.
Li Tianqun was just at the Celestial Venerable stage, but he still wasnât any weaker than the Fourth Palaceâs geniuses, and perhaps was even stronger than them.
âJiang Chen....â Chen Xi didnât know what she should say now, but she still stood between them and didnât step aside.
âMiss Chen Xi, you donât need to blame yourself for this. I had already considered this matter properly before attacking him,â Jiang Chen said to her.
âIs he Jiang Chen? The person who triggered the Shaped Heavenly Lightning while still in the Celestial Venerable stage and damaged the Elixir Emperorâs Ship?â
âI heard that he was still a follower of a Martial Sovereign, and he borrowed the Martial Sovereignâs power to crush all the top geniuses.â
âItâs no wonder that heâs fearless. It is because he has backing.â
The people in the ship suddenly recalled something. They had come to the Three Middle Realms just a while ago, but they all already had heard stories about Jiang Chen. Since he was a disciple of a Martial Sovereign, he was really qualified to be this arrogant.
âEven if you are a follower of a Martial Sovereign, you will still die.â Li Tianqun shook his head. His will didnât waver because of this matter. Followers werenât like disciples, which was why one could kill them.
âBrother Li, just set your mind at ease. His status as a Martial Sovereignâs follower can be used just to scare off people, and you donât need to worry about the Martial Sovereign showing himself.â
It was at this moment that another person walked out. It was a genius expert at the same level as Li Tianqun. He was a youth with star-like eyes, sword-like sharp brows, rosy lips, and silver teeth. His skin was fairer than even a womanâs skin, and he had a mesmerizing, beautiful face. He was a man so beautiful that even beauties would envy him for his beauty, but it was a pity that his stature wasnât tall. He was now engulfed by raging flames, which protected his body. Jiang Chen noticed that he also had the Divine Fire Ring around his finger.
âWe are both followers of the same Martial Sovereign, and I know that Martial Sovereign very well. The Martial Sovereign wonât come out to help you,â he said confidently. The crowd went into an uproar. Jiang Chen was aware that what he had stated wasnât false because this guy was the other disciple of the Flame Emperor, who he had just been looking for. The Flame Emperorâs inheritance could only be left for a single person, and, for this reason, these two disciples would have to fight to the death for him.
âBrother Li, if you donât mind, let me fight him and kill him. He canât cheat at all while fighting me.â He took a step forward, which seemed slow and long, although it was extremely quick.
Li Tianqunâs expression was still as indifferent as before. He spoke coldly, âThere isnât any need for it.â
âFine, but, after he dies, you should give his ring to me.â The disciple revealed a faint smile. He was talking about the ring on Jiang Chenâs hand. Moreover, he still raised his hand to let people see his own Divine Fire Ring. He wanted to inform Li Tianqun that the rings were related to each other; hence, why his request couldnât be considered unreasonable.
âFine.â Li Tianqun just nodded and agreed after he had mulled it over for a moment.
âMany thanks, brother Li.â The discipleâs smile became more bright, and he used once again the same mysterious footwork. The crowd felt just a blur flickering before their eyes as he disappeared. In the next second, both he and Chen Xi appeared at a distant place.
âMiss Chen Xi, this matter isnât related to you, so just let it develop by itself,â the disciple said. Chen Xi was annoyed by the fact that he had brought her away without her consent, but she was aware that this guyâs character was always like this so she didnât flare out.
âThe Elixir Emperorâs Ship canât stand any more destruction, so I will kill you outside the city.â Li Tianqun cast a glance at Jiang Chen, before he left the Elixir Emperorâs Ship and flew toward the outskirts of the city.
âYou will suffer a miserable fate!â The boy exclaimed.
âGo back home and drink some milk, so that you can recover,â Jiang Chen said in mockery.
âYou!â What the boy hated the most were people mentioning this matter, and it was especially the case since his cultivation was already crippled. Now, he couldnât even use the Godslayer Bow.
âWho is this guy, and who is flying in Heaven Divine City once again?â
âHeaven Divine Cityâs rules are being broken by people repeatedly.â Heaven Divine Cityâs citizens were confused by the actions of Li Tianqun, who was flying atop their heads. Moreover, this person seemed strange to them. He didnât wear an official robe and didnât seem like someone from the Blood Shadow Dynasty, yet no one came out to obstruct him, and they just turned a blind eye to his actions.
The crowd then witnessed Jiang Chen flying in the same direction. Just after that, Chen Xi brought all the strangers in the ship with her and followed behind them.
âThere must be a good show to watch!â The busybodiesâ eyes lit up, and they quickly followed everyone else out of the city.
âDid you choose your burying ground?â After they left the city, Li Tianqunâs gaze became ice-cold.
âI really want to know whether it is the Three Upper Realmsâ geniusesâ tongues which are amazing or is it their power which is great,â Jiang Chen mocked him. His words offended almost all the people who had come here with Chen Xi.
âIf he knew how amazing Li Tianqun was, he would have already pissed his pants in terror.â
âHe is the Sacred Landâs Sacred Body. He isnât a person he can talk to this rudely.â
In their eyes, Jiang Chen had just taught a boy at the Martial Venerable Realm a lesson, and such a matter wasnât worth mentioning. As for his past battle achievements? He had just borrowed external power to achieve them, and he wasnât someone on the same level as Li Tianqun. He was already honored to get an opportunity to fight Li Tianqun, and, even if he ended up dead, it would still be a great honor for him.
âYou will shortly know.â Li Tianqun didnât get angry and just treated Jiang Chen like an ignorant lad. He was really looking forward to which expression he would reveal after realizing the great disparity between them.
âLetâs start fighting.â When his voice echoed this phrase, Li Tianqun clenched his fists, and boundless power surged out of them. A spectacular phantom image appeared behind him. It was a raging sea which seemed like it would submerge the land.
âHe has such a phantom image! How strong is this guy, and who is he?â The Heaven Divine Cityâs people, who had followed them to watch a battle, were all stunned. Li Tianqun had seemed mediocre and ordinary, and, moreover, he was still a new face here. Hence, they all assumed that he was just an insignificant and mediocre guy. Who could have expected that he would be this amazing once he got serious? A phantom image was just a metamorphosis of one power outside, and the stronger one was, the more spectacular it would be. The raging sea phantom image revealed by Li Tianqun informed Heaven Divine Cityâs people just how powerful he was.
Li Tianqun took the lead and attacked Jiang Chen first. He thrust both his fists at Jiang Chen directly. The power he erupted with rivaled a divine war chariot, which could destroy even a mountain.
Hiss!
The people, who werenât familiar with him, couldnât help but suck in a breath of cold air.
âIs this a power which a Celestial Venerable can possess?â
When the crowd had such a thought, Jiang Chen faced him head-on.
âThis idiot!â The boy was carried here now by someone, and when he witnessed Jiang Chen courting death by himself, he couldnât help but sneer coldly.
âHe wants to face Li Tianqunâs fists head-on.â
The other people noticed that Jiang Chen also clenched his fists.
Bang!
When their fists collided, a strong vibration, which almost shattered the void, occurred.
âWhat!â
Those two people didnât decide who was the strongest in this exchange, and they didnât back down. Their armsâ muscles were bulging, and it was obvious that they had used their whole physical power.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âImpossible!â The Flame Emperorâs disciple, who had been wearing a faint smile, couldnât help but cry out in alarm.
âHe unexpectedly exchanged blows with Li Tianqun, and wasnât overwhelmed by him.â
âIs this true? Li Tianqun is someone who has a Sacred Body!â
