If the sword lightâs attack had managed to succeed, the Sky-burning Evil Flame would have gone out of control and caused an enormous disaster. Jiang Chen really wanted to know who hated him so much that he had attempted such a matter.
âI donât know who it is precisely, but heâs over there,â the Azure Demon said.
Over there was the center of the plaza, and everyone had focused their attention on it. Several men masked men were standing there, and they didnât interact with anyone.
âIf you walk before every one of them, I can discern which one it was,â the Azure Demon said.
Jiang Chen nodded and went over there calmly.
âItâs Jiang Chen! He came over!â
âIs he Jiang Chen?â
âHeâs really young!â
When Jiang Chen showed himself, he was immediately recognized and caught peopleâs attention. People who had never seen him before all had imagined his appearance as the man of the moment.
âHeâs just a clown, yet he has the limelight.â
âThis can only demonstrate that the human clan is so weak that they assumed that they could rise up because of such a person.â
âHeâs just a lowly organism in the face of our Spirit Clan.â
All Spirits present here didnât have a favorable impression of Jiang Chen because of what he had done against Spirits. Even Spirits who werenât related to Jiang Chenâs previous affairs still felt like he was posing a threat to the Spirit Clanâs prestige, which was a threat to their interests. However, the Spiritsâ discussions concerning him made Jiang Chenâs entry seem even more extraordinary.
When Jiang Chen landed on the center of the plaza, he quickly saw many of his acquaintances. Besides Song Hao, Huo Zhengyu, Wu Ziming, and Jiang Zhe, there was also the Xiao familyâs Young Miss, Xiao Biluo, whom he had met in Treasure City, and Fang Wentian, who instigated Mu Qitian to try to kill him. He also saw that the Fire Spirit Clanâs Huo Kun and Huo Linger were present.
âIt seems like I have many enemies.â
When Jiang Chen counted them, he found that there were about ten of them. However, he also quickly noticed other people he was acquainted with. They were the Jiang familyâs Five Elements Disciples, Jiang Yu and Jiang Chi. Those two people were the reason why Jiang Chen had ended up becoming an enemy of the Jiang family.
The three Five Elements Disciples tried to steal Jiang Chenâs Heavenly Fault Sword and hunted him down to the Forbidden Desolate Land. One of them had already been killed by Jiang Chen, and he had taken an oath that he would hunt all those three people until the end of the world. Moreover, he didnât see any embarrassment and shame on the faces of this man-and-woman pair, just anger.
Jiang Yu was wearing a golden armor, which was crafted from powerful metal. The fusion of his armorâs power with his unusual phantom image formed the image of a bright sun floating in the sky.
âTwo Five Elements Disciples have already been killed by me, so do you still feel like you are a match for me?â Upon witnessing the anger on Jiang Yuâs face, Jiang Chen found it just laughable. His current opponent was Jiang Zhe, and he was the most outstanding youngster of the Jiang family.
âYou should all consider how you can avoid running into me outside the Ancient City or else you will end up killed,â Jiang Chen spoke coldly, while he saw out of the corner of his eye Jiang Chi, who calmly kept a distance from him.
At first, this woman had a good impression of Jiang Chen, and she even treated him well, but greed made her reveal her fangs, and she was the one who attacked Jiang Chen the most vigorously among those three people.
Jiang Yu snorted coldly. He couldnât accept that someone, who had once fled from him in panic, was now capable of acting arrogantly in front of her.
As for Jiang Chi, she recalled what Jiang Chen had stated on that day. At that time, it was a night with a dim moonâs radiance and was suitable for killing people. Before Jiang Chen had stepped into the Forbidden Desolate Land, he shouted at her and Jiang Yu. She still clearly remembered every word he had stated. At that time, she just took it for a joke, but now it brought great pressure on her.
âYou donât need to fear him.â A warm palm fell on her shoulder, and, when she looked over, adoration and respect appeared on Jiang Chiâs pretty face.
âHe wonât have such a chance because he will die when the Title Battle comes to an end,â Jiang Zhe said.
âWe will get to see who will die first.â Jiang Chen looked at the six masked people. Everyone had a different mask, one of them had a snow-white mask which didnât have anything carved on it, while someone, who seemed a woman from her curvaceous body, wore a mask with many gorgeous petals depicted on it. However, all those masks had a common feature. Holy Awarenesses werenât capable of penetrating them and having a look at their appearances.
Jiang Chen considered using his Heaven Eye, but this current place wasnât suitable for it. There were countless experts present here, and he would likely end up discovered. When he was just about to go over there to let the Azure Demon discern the culprit, a woman came over to Jiang Chen. She had a beautiful appearance and dignified bearings. Even though she wore slim-fit battle clothes, she still possessed a noble air.
âAre you young master Jiang Chen who has made two divine pieces of art?â
âWhat is the matter?â Jiang Chen wore the same expression as before, and cast a look at the masked men who werenât far from him.
âIâm Ling Yushi and have heard your renowned name long ago. It is only today that I get to finally meet you.â
âLing Yushi?â Jiang Chen thought back to the name mentioned by Li Bai, and, when he turned his head around, he discovered that Tian Ling was looking at him.
When Ling Yushi noticed Jiang Chenâs actions, she said, âYoung Master, it seems like you know of me. It is really an honor for me.â
âMiss Ling, if you want to use me to deal with someone, please donât waste your efforts in vain,â Jiang Chen spoke bluntly, brushed past her, and went toward the masked men.
âYou are really speaking arrogantly. Did you really assume that you have made two divine pieces of art?â Someone unexpectedly walked over and stopped him. She was just a young girl, 15 or 16 years old. She seemed like a precious gem made out of jade and was brimming with youthfulness. It was obvious that she was irritated by how Jiang Chen had treated Ling Yushi.
âMiss Ling had treated you politely, So, arenât you too impudent?â A youth, who seemed to be the same age as Ling Yushi, was also infuriated.
These two people werenât standing far from them, which was why they clearly witnessed and heard the exchange.
âItâs up to me to treat people how I want, and it isnât up to you to criticize me. Since I must reply to people treating me politely with a smile, shouldnât I offer a slap to people with a nasty attitude like you?â Jiang Chen faced the youthâs sharp gaze and didnât yield by even an inch. He had a strong and unyielding character.
âYou are really as arrogant and haughty as all the rumors say. I really wonder whatâs your true power?â The youth was so infuriated that he laughed and spoke in a strange tone.
âItâs still enough to deal with the likes of you.â Jiang Chen examined him with his eyes and spoke in mockery.
âYou!â The youth flew into a rage, and he pointed his finger at Jiang Chenâs face.
âYou are really talking big, donât assume that you can look down on all people just because you managed to rival some Spirits.â
The young girl spoke arrogantly, âBrother Fan Yao is stronger than you by much.â
This young girl hadnât listened to even a single word Jiang Chen had said.
Jiang Chen looked at the youthâs finger, which was pointed at his face. He sneered coldly, and said, âI will give you just two seconds to lower your hand.â
Fan Yao was taken back for a moment, before he realized that Jiang Chen was referring to the finger pointed at his face. He just smiled carelessly. He didnât plan to do anything and wanted to see what Jiang Chenwould do to him.
In the next second, his expression changed drastically because Jiang Chenâs eyes suddenly became crimson. An ice-cold murderous aura engulfed his body, and he felt like he was facing one of the ancient timesâ ten great ferocious beasts.
The youthâs finger shivered several times, before he lowered it weakly.
âItâs better like this.â Jiang Chen sneered coldly and strode forward. He struck the youthâs chest with his shoulder and pushed him away.
âBrother Fan Yao.â When the young girl witnessed how weak and feeble was the guy she adored, she was taken back, and her confidence in him couldnât help but waver.
âHateful!â After Fan Yao had come back to his senses, he realized how shameful was his appearance a moment ago. He flew into a rage out of such a humiliation, and he lost reason. He was unexpectedly about to make an attack.
