Chapter 789


Jiang Chen's attack speed reached an indescribable level, as he instantly appeared in front of the butler before the latter had time to respond .

Bang!

Jiang Chen's left fist struck the butler, but the latter just stood there without moving . It really seemed like the most normal outcome of a Celestial Venerable's attack against a Great Venerable . However, Situ Feng, who was standing not far from them, discovered that the butler's body had stiffened, and he could faintly hear a sound similar to what a jammed spring would emit .

He widened his eyes and stared at them . He witnessed that the veins in Jiang Chen's right arm were giving off a radiance that was concentrated in his fist, passed through it into the butler, and was left inside his chest .

When Jiang Chen drew back his arm, his right arm's veins, as well as the butler's chest, started shining . It was like five cavities were opened in the latter's chest, and they all shone in radiances of different colors . The butler was trying to stick out his chest, and he opened his mouth wide to speak, but he couldn't emit the slightest sound . Then the butler's body started being torn apart from the five cavities inside him . He, a solemn Great Venerable, disintegrated into pieces like a torn painting, and his blood spluttered off into the sky .

"He is dead . "

Situ Feng and the Divine Infantry were all dumbfounded . Jiang Chen had killed him instantly with a single punch, and there hadn't been any suspense at all in their confrontation .

"Let's run away . " After two seconds, people came back to their senses, and they all started fleeing in different directions .

"Come back!" Jiang Chen shouted after them, while a powerful force erupted out of his fiery eyes, which pulled back all the people against their wills .

"Please spare us!"

"Don't kill us!"

"Jiang Chen, this is just a misunderstanding!"

The Divine Infantry and Situ Feng started begging for forgiveness in sobbing tones .  

"You should all run there . " Jiang Chen pointed at the Xiahou family's manor and spoke coldly, "You should all inform Lord Xiahou that I will surely pay him a visit next time if he catches my interest . "

"Understood! Understood! Understood! . " As long as Jiang Chen didn't kill them, they would be willing to do anything, let alone just notify someone .

"Get lost!"

Upon hearing his angry shout, the people were all scared witless, and they all ran away frantically . After they had all left and were far away, Jiang Chen pressed the Divine Fire Ring and his Divine Body went back to normal .

"I ended up using just a tenth of its power . The Fire Meteorite is really a nice treasure . "

If he didn't need to hurry into Heaven Divine City, Jiang Chen might even have tried using the other four supreme treasures .

… . .

In the Xiahou family's manor, Lord Xiahou was walking around in circles in a courtyard, and he seemed quite anxious .


"Master, Butler Feng already went there personally and, as long as he can find Jiang Chen, he will surely manage to get back the treasures . "

A sweet beauty next to him was trying to comfort him, but sadly it was not helping at all .

"Since Jiang Chen could decipher the secret room's channel secret, he may have already fled . Moreover, we don't have any proof and, once he has converged with the Elixir Association, it will be too late to do anything," Lord Xiahou said .



It was at this moment that a servant came to report a matter . He stated that someone had news to pass to him .

"Is it about Jiang Chen?" Lord Xiahou was very anxious then, and he didn't notice that the servant was wearing an odd look .

"It's about Jiang Chen . Butler Feng found his tracks in Cloud End Mountain . "

"Ha, ha, so it turned out that he's hiding in Cloud End Mountain? Good, very good!"

Lord Xiahou finally managed to calm down . As long as he could find him in the Xiahou family's domain, he wouldn't need to worry about anything .

He went toward the front palace,where he ran into Xiahou Xue, who came up to him anxiously .

"Father, can you please bestow Jiang Chen's sword on me?" Xiahou said . She hadn't forgotten her lover's request .

"It doesn't matter, it's just a sword," Lord Xiahou replied nonchalantly . He couldn't even imagine that what his daughter wanted was a Doctrine Artifact .

This father-and-daughter pair didn't realize at all what had really occurred . Moreover, even the other arrogant members of the Xiahou family hadn't taken Jiang Chen seriously . Thus, when they reached the front palace and witnessed the miserable state of Situ Feng, as well as the Divine Infantry, they were all shocked .

"What happened?" Lord Xiahou asked .

The soldiers of the Divine Infantry just glanced at each other in response . They didn't dare to reply at all .

"Where is Feng Renjie?" Lord Xiahou had an increasingly bad feeling as he witnessed such a scene, and he asked about the butler's whereabouts .

"Master, Butler Feng fought to the death," a Divine Infantry soldier replied . Stating that he fought to the death was just a nice way of reporting his death; as in fact he was instantly killed by a single punch .



"What!" Lord Xiahou was so startled that he drew back four or five steps . His face was filled with shock, as well as anger . The Xiahou family couldn't ignore the loss of a Great Venerable .

"Who did it? Was it someone from the Elixir Association? The Elixir Association dared to attack us?" Lord Xiahou spoke angrily .

"It was done by Jiang Chen alone, but it could be said that he had gotten his teacher's aid . . . . " Situ Feng said .

Upon hearing this, an uproar arose in the manor . All the people started wagging their tongues and discussing it .

"Brother Feng, why did you follow them there too?" Xiahou asked in confusion .

Situ Feng smiled bitterly . He had wanted to intercept Jiang Chen and steal the Ancient Sword; however, he did not expect that he couldn't withstand even a single blow from Jiang Chen .

"Jiang Chen managed to defeat me without even using his whole power," Situ Feng shouted .

"How is this possible?" Xiahou Xue's face turned pale . She had believed all along that Jiang Chen couldn't touch Situ Feng . She wouldn't have scorned him if she had realized how powerful he was .

"It's because you are too useless . " Lord Xiahou was getting more and more infuriated by what he had just heard .

"Are you sure that's the case? Even your family's Great Venerable was killed by just a single punch from him," Situ Feng smiled bitterly and spoke .

"Impossible!" How could Lord Xiahou believe this?

"Master, it is really the truth . " The soldier of the Divine Infantry nodded and informed him of everything they had gone through, as well as what Jiang Chen asked them to inform Lord Xiahou about .



"The Flame Emperor . . . the Flame Emperor is still alive . . . ?"

Lord Xiahou's knees went soft, and he almost fell to the ground . After a long while, he shouted in a sharp voice, "That damned Jiang family!"

If the Jiang family hadn't supplied him with false intelligence, he wouldn't have treated Jiang Chen in such a way . Now, it wasn't important whether the Flame Emperor was really dead or not, what was important was that he was capable of providing his followers with enough power to instantly kill a Great Venerable .

Moreover, Jiang Chen had stated that he would pay them a visit later .

As he thought of all this, Lord Xiahou felt like he could see the beautiful manor, constructed by him with such meticulous care, being destroyed among a sea of flames .

"What should we do?" Lord Xiahou was out of his wits, and he didn't know what he should do .

"Xue'er, Xue'er . . . " Lord Xiahou grabbed his daughter's shoulders suddenly and spoke excitedly, " . . . if Jiang Chen really comes, I hope that you can apologize to him and compensate him . "

"What should I . . . . "

Xiahou Xue didn't realize what he meant at first, and it was only after a moment that she realized that her father wanted to hand her over to Jiang Chen to quell his anger . As for how she would quell it, she was clearly aware of it . However, the issue was whether Jiang Chen would take a liking to her?

Jiang Chen had already defeated Situ Feng, and if he was really a follower of a Martial Sovereign she wouldn't possess anything good in comparison to him besides her outer appearance .

When Situ Feng heard what this father-and-daughter pair had stated, he just left quietly . He wasn't willing to stay anymore .

"You mustn't divulge to anyone what happened here today," Gongsun Wuxie warned Situ Feng .

Situ Feng didn't want to inform anyone of this day's humiliation, but he still didn't know why Lord Xiahou had warned him . However, when he thought about Lord Xiahou's character and how he would always try to harm others even if it wouldn't benefit him, he understood everything .

Lord Xiahou wanted more people to suffer from trusting the Jiang family's intelligence . Then there would be more people reproaching the Jiang family .
