Chapter 137: Chapter 114: Come on, Trash! Let Me See
’The effect would’ve been even better if I’d hung him up at high noon.’
Suddenly, Chen Xuan heard approaching footsteps. He turned, his eyes lighting up as he called out with a smile, "Alliance Leader, you’re here. I’ve gathered pretty much everything from Iron Stone Castle."
Luo Hongtian looked panicked. He was gesturing wildly, trying to tell Chen Xuan to take this chance and run for it.
"So you’re Chen Xuan!"
The Little Sword Immortal’s voice was as cold as ice. He wore a robe whiter than snow, its fabric rustling in the wind. His gaze, like a flash of cold lightning, swept over Chen Xuan.
"And you are?"
Chen Xuan ignored Luo Hongtian’s signals, his brow furrowing as he sized the man up.
"The Little Sword Immortal!"
Ye Guyun said, his voice cold.
"You’re that expert from the Celestial Sword Sect?"
Chen Xuan was astonished.
’Number twenty-four on the Human List!’
’Second Layer of True Qi!’
’Yet he has a record of killing someone in the Third Layer and fighting someone in the Fourth Layer to a draw.’
’But that raised a question!’
’Who was that guy I just hung up on the city wall?’
"That’s right!"
Ye Guyun’s tone was frigid. "I was originally going to have your Alliance Leader deliver a written challenge to you, but that’s no longer necessary. Since I’ve run into you myself, I’ll just deliver it in person. Tomorrow at noon, you and I will battle atop the city walls. Don’t even think about running. If you do, I will slaughter everyone you know. And when I finally catch you, I will hack off your limbs and make you wish for death!"
"Heh."
Chen Xuan suddenly laughed. "Tomorrow at noon? You must be dreaming. Who the fuck has time to wait until noon for you? If you want a duel, we can fight right now. ’Tomorrow at noon’... are you drunk or something?"
’He’s already come looking for me. Why would I drag this out?’
’I’ll fight him right here, right now!’
"What did you say?"
Ye Guyun’s gaze sharpened, and his aura turned oppressive.
"Are you deaf? I said, if you want to fight, let’s fight now. Stop pretending to be some big shot!"
Chen Xuan’s tone was icy and completely unfazed.
"Chen Xuan, don’t be reckless..." Luo Hongtian quickly interjected.
He was trembling with fear.
’That’s the Little Sword Immortal!’
"On my way here, I heard people say you were arrogant and reckless, that you didn’t know your own limits. Seeing you now, it’s clearly true. It seems you’re used to being a big fish in a small pond and have no idea of the sheer immensity of the world!"
The Little Sword Immortal let out a cold laugh.
’I really didn’t expect this.’
’To think someone would be in such a hurry to die!’
"Enough with the nonsense. You wanted a fight, didn’t you? Let’s start now!"
Chen Xuan’s tone was glacial as his aura suddenly erupted.
BOOM!
A terrifying roar echoed as his crimson-gold True Qi surged upward like a reverse waterfall. It unleashed a world-shaking aura, burning fiercely and roiling in powerful waves as it rushed toward the sky.
In an instant, the sky itself seemed to change color as the winds howled.
An immensely powerful and terrifying wave of energy instantly enveloped the entire plaza...
In that moment, a deathly silence fell over the vast training ground.
...
Everyone looked horrified, as if an invisible hand were clamped tightly around their necks.
Luo Hongtian’s eyes bulged, his mouth hanging open. He simply couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
’This is...’
’Th... The True Qi Third Layer?’
He pinched his thigh hard, leaving a dark bruise. He tried with all his might to calm himself, but his face trembled uncontrollably, and his lips wouldn’t stop quivering.
’Am I seeing things?’
’Chen Xuan was only at the True Qi First Layer just last night!’
’But now!’
’He’s... at the fucking True Qi Third Layer?’
Luo Hongtian felt a profound sense of absurdity, as if reality itself had been thrown into chaos.
’If I’m not dreaming, then the damned heavens must have fallen asleep on the job.’
’Doesn’t advancing through the True Qi Realm require years of bitter training?’
As for the Little Sword Immortal, who had been so cold and dismissive of Chen Xuan just moments before, he was frozen in place, his face a mask of disbelief.
"..."
’He had never imagined a scene like this.’
’The Human List said...’
’Chen Xuan, Gang Energy Ninth Layer... defeated Su Wanqing...’
’But now, he’s at the True Qi Third Layer?’
’The difference between those two levels is astronomical!’
"Come on, you piece of trash!"
Chen Xuan’s tone was cool. "Didn’t you want a life-and-death battle? We can start right now. Let’s see what you’ve got!"
BOOM!
A powerful, searing aura poured endlessly from his body, his golden True Qi blazing like a sacred flame.
’Killed someone in the Third Layer? Fought someone in the Fourth Layer to a draw?’
’Too bad for you!’
’Because I can kill someone in the Fifth Layer right now!’
...
The beatdown of the Little Sword Immortal is up next!
