Chapter 264 – A Single Slip May Cause Everlasting Sorrow
A hundred years, Jiang Chen cut open the gate to the Realm of Immortals, and when he did that, an immortal light slipped out. In other words, it was Jiang Chen who brought Nanbei Chao to this realm. And now, both of them were irreconcilable enemies of life and death.
The powerful Immortal Spirit Body couldn’t be easily killed. Jiang Chen had inflicted Nanbei Chao with serious injuries, but in the end, he still slipped away. Jiang Chen didn’t manage to kill him.
“I don’t care if you’re any Immortal Spirit or a mortal. If I, Jiang Chen can defeat you once, I’ll be able to defeat you twice, and a third time if need be. When you offended me, your path towards becoming a ruler changed into a path towards becoming a beggar.”
Jiang Chen’s eyes were cold and penetrating. He had no idea how strong one with an Immortal Spirit Body could become, but he had no fear of it at all. Furthermore, because of today’s battle, Jiang Chen had cast a permanent shadow in Nanbei Chao’s heart.
The Qi Province was only Nanbei Chao’s first stop on his path towards becoming a ruler, but it had ended with defeat; he was mercilessly destroyed by Jiang Chen. This had seriously affected Nanbei Chao’s ability to continue cultivating his Imperious Ruler skill, this incident would become a huge obstacle in his cultivation path.
“Is Nanbei Chao dead?”
“I don’t think so, it seems like he slipped away.”
“He could actually escape in such a conditions? Looks like he really is a man with special abilities. I heard that Nanbei Chao was born from an Immortal Spirit, I wonder if this is true.”
“So what if he really was born from an Immortal Spirit, he was still defeated by senior disciple Jiang Chen. No matter how strong he is, he is just a small obstacle in senior disciple Jiang Chen’s path.”
…………
Nanbei Chao was seriously injured, and had escaped. This caused everyone from the Black Sect and Valley of Happiness to happily cheer. Excitement could be found on all their faces.
“Jiang Chen! Jiang Chen! Jiang Chen! …”
It was unclear who started shouting, but soon, everyone began shouting his name. Even the Divine Core elders were shouting together. With all their yuan energy and strength, their shouts shook the nine heavens. It was as if they wanted the name to be heard by every single inch of the entire Qi Province.
Everyone were shouting with respect. Right at this moment, Jiang Chen’s weight in these peoples’ hearts became heavier and heavier; he had become a man whom everyone would throw themselves at his feet.
Respect. That’s right. From today onwards, even Daoist Black and Granny Feng would respect Jiang Chen from the bottom of their hearts.
Today was a day for major change, it was a day that would definitely be remembered in the Qi Province’s history, and the name Jiang Chen would be told for generations to him. He had become the number one person in the Qi Province.
For all disciples and elders here, the twists in today’s events had caused them to feel as if their emotions were riding on a huge wave. If Jiang Chen hadn’t returned at the right time, no one could imagine how many of them would be here, cheering. Most likely, none of them would be cheering, and the bodies of those from the Burning Sky Pavilion would be replaced by them.
This was a great lifesaving deed, the greatest kindness underneath the heavens. Not only had Jiang Chen saved the Black Sect; he had also saved their lives.
Compared to the Black Sect and Valley of Happiness’s excitement, there were three men who had pale white faces. Obviously, they were Zhao Chongyang, Duan Jianhong, and Fan Zhongtang who had been completely crippled by Jiang Chen.
“Sigh… There’s already a Nanbei Chao, why did the heavens give birth to another one, Jiang Chen…”
Zhao Chongyang let out a sigh as his face pointed towards the sky. Nanbei Chao was a peerless genius, but being born in the same era as Jiang Chen was his biggest misfortune.
Jiang Chen calmed his mind down. Then, he descended from the skies, landing in front of all disciples and elders. He threw his glance at the seriously injured Duan Jianhong and Zhao Chongyang.
“I wonder what you two are feeling right now.”
Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face.
“Jiang Chen, you’ve really surprised us. I, Zhao Chongyang didn’t take you seriously even in my wildest dreams. If I had paid more attention to you, the Burning Sky Pavilion wouldn’t have been destroyed today.”
Zhao Chongyang said with a bitter smile on his face. If he knew Jiang Chen would become such a huge threat to his future, he would have killed him half a year ago, regardless of anything.
Duan Jianhong on the other side felt extremely regretful as well. His first regret was similar to Zhao Chongyang, he didn’t pay enough attention to Jiang Chen earlier. But his second regret was that he shouldn’t have surrendered to the Burning Sky Pavilion. If he made the same decision as the Valley of Happiness, fighting Nanbei Chao with the combined force of the three big sects, he would not be in his current state.
“Everything belongs to the victor, and you were defeated. This is a war that you can only pay for with your life; defeat means death. Zhao Chongyang, since you’re one of the biggest powers in the Qi Province, I’ll give you the chance to kill yourself.”
Jiang Chen said with an indifferent tone.
“Hahaha…”
Zhao Chongyang let out a loud laugh filled with miser. Suddenly, he completely stopped laughing, and cracking sounds could be heard from his body. After that, streams of blood shot out from his body. The Burning Sky Pavilion’s Sect Chief, one of the most powerful men in the Qi Province had just killed himself.
Zhao Chongyang’s death didn’t cause Jiang Chen to have any change in his expression. In the next second, he turned to Duan Jianhong. When Duan Jianhong sensed Jiang Chen looking at him, he lost control of his body, and his soul trembled. He didn’t want to die! The more intelligent a man was, the more scared he was of death. When death arrived by his side… that sensation was extremely terrifying.
“Jiang Chen, can you spare my life? I promise, from now on, the Heavenly Sword Sect will pledge its loyalty to you!”
Duan Jianhong’s face became extremely pale as he repeatedly begged for forgiveness.
“Do you think I care about the Heavenly Sword Sect? Duan Jianhong, you are a smart guy, but usually, a smart man can easily be ruined by his own intelligence. You have to bear the consequences of your mistakes. I’ll give you the same chance, just kill yourself.”
