Chapter 98 – Battle Deal with Nan Bei Chao
Chapter 98 – Battle Deal with Nan Bei Chao
Nan Bei Chao revolts. In the eyes of this new rising star of the Qi Province, rules meant nothing. Not to mention the rules of the Qi Province competition, he could ignore all rules in the Qi Province.
Trying to restrict Nan Bei Chao with rules was impossible, at least Jiang Chen thinks so. Nan Bei Chao was a tiger amongst men, he was born with great destiny, and he had the aura of a king surrounding him. Such a genius, his future achievements had no limits. He was just like those super geniuses from the Divine Continent, he was qualified to look down upon the heavens.
Nan Bei Chao thinks of himself as above everyone else, no one was allowed to insult him. Therefore, he wants to kill Jiang Chen, he wants to let Jiang Chen die while kneeling.
“He’s done for, this time, he’s truly done for!”
“Nan Bei Chao is too arrogant, he would never allow anyone to insult his dignity! This time, even Guan Yi Yun won’t be able to protect Jiang Chen!”
“The thing is, this Nan Bei Chao is just too strong, Guan Yi Yun is also strong, but he can’t even resist a single attack from Nan Bei Chao! In my opinion, Nan Bei Chao would be able to fight with a Divine Core warrior!”
“Such an individual can’t even be found in a thousand years, the Qi Province has never produced anyone like him! He is the Burning Sky Pavilion’s biggest pride, he will never obey any rules!”
…………
Many people were sighing. Nan Bei Chao was just too brutal, no one was able resist him. Jiang Chen was done for, today, there’s nowhere he can go in order to survive. Since Nan Bei Chao wants to kill him, no one can save him; even those blood wings are useless. No one can escape from Nan Bei Chao.
“Get lost!”
Nan Bei Chao was very rough, he had just said two words coldly to Guan Yi Yun.
“Nan Bei Chao, don’t think that you are above law and order!”
Guan Yi Yun had become incredibly angry, even a clay doll would feel some anger in his current situation. As the Black Sect’s leading man this time, even if he wasn’t Nan Bei Chao’s match, he still couldn’t just sit back and watch a disciple of the Black Sect get killed by Nan Bei Chao.
Liang Xiao who stood aside had a sneer on his face. He posed as if he was just watching a good show. He wanted to see how exactly Guan Yi Yun was going to stop Nan Bei Chao.
Right at this moment, a hand patted Guan Yi Yun’s shoulder from behind, it was Jiang Chen’s hand. Jiang Chen walked out from behind Guan Yi Yun and positioned himself in front of Nan Bei Chao.
Jiang Chen was wearing a white robe, he had a thin smile on his face, and his clothes and hair were waving underneath Nan Bei Chao’s imposing aura. The smile on his face hadn’t changed at all, his eyes were sharp. He looked into Nan Bei Chao’s eyes, the manner in which he acted made him not seem any weaker than Nan Bei Chao.
“Such good presence! Just his courage alone makes this Jiang Chen a great man!”
“This man’s attitude is really something, it just doesn’t match his age! Looks like he really isn’t scared that Nan Bei Chao will kill him with just a single slap!”
Everyone were moved by Jiang Chen’s actions, even Guan Yi Yun didn’t expect that Jiang Chen would have such courage. He was able to face Nan Bei Chao with such a calm attitude without showing any fear.
“You’re not scared of me?”
Nan Bei Chao’s gaze was like a cold blade scratching fiercely on Jiang Chen’s face. He didn’t attack and kill Jiang Chen. As a prideful individual, he wanted to know how Jiang Chen could stand in front of him so calmly, and why he isn’t kneeling down in front of him.
“Why should I be afraid of you, shouldn’t you be afraid of me?”
Jiang Chen said with a grin.
“I should be the one scared of you? Haha, what a joke, what a big joke! Do you truly believe that I can’t squeeze you to death like an ant with nothing but my fingers?”
Nan Bei Chao was laughing loudly, this was definitely the funniest joke he had ever heard, this had never happened before.
“Because you know that my potential is not any worse than yours, and that it’s even higher than yours! Therefore you can’t wait to kill me, you’re scared that when I become stronger, I’ll come back and kill you!”
Jiang Chen spoke word by word, and it was heard by everyone at the scene, it made everyone admire his courage even further. And at the same time, many of them started thinking that what Jiang Chen said was actually right.
“What Jiang Chen said is right, with the potential he showed today, it is really not any weaker than Nan Bei Chao’s potential, and it might even be higher than his! It is really possible that he might suppress him in the future! Nan Bei Chao is scared that Jiang Chen will become stronger than him in the future, therefore, he can’t wait to kill him!”
“What a joke! When Nan Bei Chao wants to kill someone, does he need a reason? Nevertheless, Jiang Chen’s existence really poses some threat to him!”
The words from the crowds had passed into Nan Bei Chao’s ears, and these words had without doubt provoked his prideful mind. If he killed Jiang Chen today, then he will have to carry the name of someone scared of Jiang Chen.
“Jiang Chen, you have to understand, in front of me, you’re nothing but an ant. With my elite status, standing here and talking to you so much is already a big honor for you! If I want to kill you, then I need no reason at all!”
Nan Bei Chao would forever have the attitude of someone above everyone else. An elite aura covered his entire body, as if he was the only elite individual in this world.
“Nan Bei Chao, restrain your elite aura! In front of me, do not show your elite aura, don’t ever think that you are the greatest genius in this world! Give me one year, then you will know who the greater one between us is!”
Jiang Chen let out a cold snort, he had the same arrogant attitude, and his reaction had scared many people. This was probably the first person who had dared to act so arrogantly in front of Nan Bei Chao, and he was able to show his arrogance so naturally without any fear. With just his courage alone, he had won everyone’s admiration and respect.
“Hahaha……”
Nan Bei Chao suddenly started laughing out loud, he took a step forward, and he stood so close to Jiang Chen that their bodies almost touched. With a cold and stern voice he said, “Jiang Chen, you’re very clever, using this trick to save your own life! Congratulations, you’ve succeeded! I’ll give you one year! One year later, you and I will have a death match! I’ll see how much you can grow in just one year!”
After saying that, Nan Bei Chao turned around and flew up into the sky, soon disappearing from everyone’s vision. At the same time, his voice sounded out from midair, “Jiang Chen, enjoy the last year of your life!”
Jiang Chen’s expression didn’t change, but he secretly breathed out a sigh of relief in his mind. Today’s situation, aside from this method, nothing would be able to save him.
Jiang Chen had a precise vision, he could easily tell what kind of person Nan Bei Chao was. This kind of man, every single part of him is filled with pride, the kind of pride that runs deep down in his bones. He wouldn’t look up to anyone.
Therefore, he used the one year time to gamble with Nan Bei Chao’s pride. He predicted that Nan Bei Chao would surely agree with him. There’s just too many people here, the Qi Province competition represented almost the entire Qi Province. With Nan Bei Chao’s identity, if he still killed him after Jiang Chen said all those things, then people would think he was afraid of Jiang Chen.
The proud Nan Bei Chao would never be afraid of anyone. Therefore, Nan Bei Chao agreed to the one year deal and left.
“Damn, Nan Bei Chao left just like that… That Jiang Chen is really something, he actually dares to set the match in one year… With only just one year, no matter how much of a genius he is, there’s just no way he can match up to Nan Bei Chao…”
“That’s right, this Jiang Chen is just too arrogant! He actually wants to fight in just one year! He is only an Early Mortal Core warrior, even if Nan Bei Chao’s cultivation doesn’t progress during this year, Jiang Chen will be never be able to reach the same level as him!”
“Sigh… He can only live for another year, and once that year is up, he will be killed by Nan Bei Chao.”
“I’m pretty interested to see the match in one year! Jiang Chen doesn’t look like someone reckless, let’s just wait and see! In one year, we will get to witness a good show!”
“That’s right! The death match deal between Jiang Chen and Nan Bei Chao, it will surely become the center of attraction within the Qi Province! The day after one year will surely be very eventful! Jiang Chen has joined the Black Sect, he will surely get better resources!”
Everyone had become sentimental, today’s Qi Province competition did not run smoothly. The dramatic progress had finally come to an end in an unexpected manner.
Jiang Chen was obviously the biggest winner of this competition, an infamous rogue cultivator appearing as a dark horse, defeating all outer circle disciples from the four big sects and taking the first place for himself. He had now become truly famous.
The name Jiang Chen would soon be spread across the entire Qi Province, and everyone would know his name.
There had been too many unexpected events during this time’s competition. Who could have ever thought that the sure to be champion would die a horrifying death? His body was cut into 2 pieces, and who would have thought that the talented Ling Ao’s head would be chopped off?
For the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Burning Sky Pavilion, the death of Li Wu Shuang and Ling Ao was the biggest loss in this competition.
As for the Valley of Happiness, there was no doubt that they had merely become participants of this competition. In fact, the Valley of Happiness are overall very strong, but cultivating the seduction skill is by itself considered an evil path. It is very difficult for strong warriors to emerge from the Valley of Happiness, therefore, in the history of the Qi Province, the Valley of Happiness has never taken first place.
From how Yi Qing Zi admitted defeat, one could easily tell the reason behind this. Once the seduction skill lost its effect, they would lose their biggest advantage.
“Hmph! Fight in one year? Let’s see if you have the ability to live past this year!”
Liang Xiao let out a cold snort, he turned around and prepared to leave. At this point of time, a disciple from the Heavenly Sword Sect stood out and said, “Senior disciple Liang, this Jiang Chen and that big yellow dog are in the same gang! Ask him to hand over that dog!”
“What? The dog who set free those demon beasts in the Demon Prison Tower?”
Liang Xiao was startled, he had heard of the incident regarding the Demon Prison Tower before. Some time ago, there was a cruel dog who wreaked havoc within the outer circle of the sect.
“Yes! It’s that dead dog!”
The disciple said while grinding his teeth.
“Jiang Chen, hand over that dog!”
Liang Xiao turned back and looked at Jiang Chen.
“Liang Xiao, what dog? Don’t be ridiculous!”
Guan Yi Yun said with a dissatisfied expression.
“Guan Yi Yun, you can protect Jiang Chen, but don’t tell me you want to protect some dog?! Today, if he doesn’t hand over that dog, don’t blame me for attacking!”
Liang Xiao was furious, he couldn’t kill Jiang Chen here, but if he couldn’t even get the dog that he wants to kill, then he would die from anger.
The people who were ready to leave again focused their visions on the center of the square, it looks like the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Black Sect are going to fight for a dog.
“I have nothing to do with that dog, if you guys are capable, just go and catch him! Why are you asking me for a dog? When have you ever seen a dog beside me?”
Jiang Chen sneered, that dog is not easy to catch. Even if he wanted to hand the dog over, there would be no way for him to actually do that.
“That dog is here!”
Someone amongst the crowd shouted, it was one of the men who had lost his bet to Big Yellow.
Swoopsh!
Right after that man finished his words, a few Heavenly Sword Sect disciples immediately rushed to that place with extremely high speed.
