Chapter 14

"Jiang Chen, take the money and give me the pills quickly."

Muru Hao stood arrogantly, his face full of arrogance. These three days, the Jiang family’s pill shop had been bustling with activity, while the Muru family’s place was deserted. Such a stark contrast was unbearable for him, so he decided to come and take a look, and perhaps buy a few Perfect Pills to see what they looked like. He didn’t expect to be recognized right away.

However, as the first genius of the Muru family and the top talent in Tianxiang City, his arrogance was not something ordinary people could match.

"Jiang Chen’s pills are sold to people, not to beasts. I’ve taken your money, but while Young Master is still in a good mood, you should crawl away from my sight immediately."

Jiang Chen said this with a nonchalant tone.

"Jiang Chen, who are you calling a beast?"

Muru Hao suddenly flew into a rage. As the top genius of the Muru family, no one had ever dared to be so disrespectful to him. A few days ago, Jiang Chen defeated Muru Ying, and Muru Hao had been planning to meet this suddenly rising Jiang Chen. He didn’t expect to encounter him here today.

"My Young Master is scolding you, even a fool can hear it. Is this man’s ears filled with shit?"

Jiang Cheng, standing beside Jiang Chen, said this with a domineering air, pointing at Muru Hao. In the past, Jiang Cheng would never have dared to speak so loudly to the top genius of Tianxiang City, but now, with the backing of Young Master, he felt more confident. Since Young Master had already called him a beast, he had to follow suit.

"You dog, who do you think you are to speak to me like this?"

Muru Hao’s aura flared up.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen sneered inwardly. Muru Hao was still young and arrogant, used to being overbearing, and had completely forgotten where he was and the recent falling out between the Jiang and Muru families.

"Shut up."

Jiang Chen slapped the table and stood up abruptly. "The dogs of the Muru family know no rules. Instead of staying in their own den, they dare to come to my Jiang family’s territory and bark. Bring them down."

Rustle!

As soon as Jiang Chen spoke, the guards of the pill shop rushed out, surrounding Muru Hao and the old man in the Sea Qi Realm.

The people behind them quickly retreated. They had come to see the Perfect Pills, but they didn’t expect to witness such a spectacle.

"Who dares to touch my Young Master?"

The old man in the Sea Qi Realm’s aura flared up.

"A mere early-stage Sea Qi Realm dares to be so presumptuous. Muru Hao’s dogs not only know no rules but also can’t read the situation. Uncle Zhou, cripple this old dog."

Jiang Chen was domineering.

"Yes, Young Master."

Zhou Beichen growled, leaping out from behind the table. The aura of a mid-stage Sea Qi Realm burst forth from his body, making many people feel a pressure that turned their faces pale.

"This Muru Hao is arrogant, and today he’s going to kick an iron plate. Young Master Jiang is no longer the coward he used to be."

"That’s right. The Muru family and the Jiang family have already fallen out. For Muru Hao to come to the Jiang family’s pill shop is just asking for trouble."

Many people whispered, as they had all witnessed Jiang Chen’s strength a few days ago. He had even dared to humiliate the head of the Muru family, let alone a Muru family descendant.

"Hmph! Jiang Chen, bullying the young with the many is nothing. If you’re a man, fight me today and see who is the top young talent in Tianxiang City."

Muru Hao sneered, addressing Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen was taken aback. A few days ago, he had defeated Muru Ying. As the Muru family’s top genius, Muru Hao naturally felt aggrieved and wanted to fight Jiang Chen to regain his pride.

Of course, this was understandable.

In fact, as the Muru family’s top genius, Muru Hao had long wanted to meet the suddenly rising Jiang Chen to prove who was the top talent in Tianxiang City. Or, if he encountered Jiang Chen today, even if Jiang Chen didn’t recognize him, he would still find a way to challenge him.

This was the heartache of a genius.

A man? Of course, I am a man. I don’t care about being the top young talent, but if you want to fight me, I’ll fulfill your wish. Everyone, step back.

Jiang Chen shouted, stepping out from behind the table. Today, he would make this Muru family genius regret coming here and leave a deep scar on the Muru family.

This was a business opportunity that Jiang Chen wouldn’t easily let go of.

"Young Master, these two dare to cause trouble in the Jiang family’s pill shop. I will teach them a lesson."

Zhou Beichen said hurriedly.

"Uncle Zhou, they’ve called me out. If I don’t act, won’t I be laughed at?"

Jiang Chen smiled. He knew Zhou Beichen was worried. After all, Muru Hao was the Muru family’s top genius, having reached the peak of the Ninth Stage Qi Realm. Although Jiang Chen had defeated Muru Ying, he wasn’t sure if he could match Muru Hao.

"In that case, be careful, Young Master."

Zhou Beichen nodded, seeing Jiang Chen’s confident expression. Thinking of Jiang Chen’s recent performance, he felt more at ease.

"Everyone, step back."

Jiang Cheng waved his hand, and all the Jiang family guards withdrew. Zhou Beichen also stepped back, while the Muru family’s Sea Qi Realm expert frowned, his face tense. Seeing the Jiang family’s setup, he began to regret coming today. If anything happened to Muru Hao, he wouldn’t be able to explain to Muru Zhan.

"Uncle Hui, step back. Watch me teach this arrogant brat a lesson and bring glory to the Muru family."

Muru Hao closed his fan, his face full of a cold smile.

"Be careful, Young Master."

The old man whispered a warning, stepping aside but still on guard.

"Who do you think will win?"

"I think it’s likely to be Muru Hao. He’s at the peak of the Ninth Stage Qi Realm, just below the early-stage Sea Qi Realm. It’s hard to find an opponent at the Qi Realm, and he’s a well-known genius in Tianxiang City. Although Jiang Chen defeated Muru Ying, he’s known for being a playboy. I don’t know what his current cultivation level is, but it’s definitely not the Sea Qi Realm."

"I’m not so sure. This Jiang Chen is mysterious and has deep scheming. Even Muru Zhan has suffered at his hands. You might not have seen the scene that day. Muru Ying, at the Eighth Stage Qi Realm, was slapped to the ground by Jiang Chen."

...

Many people were whispering. Since Jiang Chen had humiliated the Muru family and defeated Muru Ying a few days ago, people had already placed him in the same category as Muru Hao, as a genius. Seeing a battle between two top geniuses was not an easy thing.

"Jiang Chen, make your move. Don’t say I’m bullying you; I’ll let you have the first move."

Muru Hao’s face was full of arrogance.

"If you’re going to let me, let me have ten moves. If you can’t afford it, don’t pretend."

Jiang Chen sneered.

"You...!"

Muru Hao’s face turned red with anger. "Hmph! What good is a sharp tongue? Let’s see who’s stronger."

Muru Hao’s body trembled slightly, and the aura of the Ninth Stage Qi Realm burst forth, powerful yuan energy surging out like a tide.

"This Muru Hao is indeed extraordinary. At the Ninth Stage Qi Realm, he has such formidable yuan energy. An ordinary Ninth Stage Qi Realm would be no match. I wonder if Young Master can handle him."

Zhou Beichen was a bit worried. He turned to look at Jiang Chen, seeing that his smile remained unchanged, a confidence that seemed to come from deep within.

"Muru Hao, don’t rush to attack. What’s the point of just fighting? How about we add a little bet?"

Jiang Chen smiled sinisterly.

"Fine, what do you want to bet?"

Muru Hao’s confidence was inflated.

"If you win, I’ll let you leave safely today. If you lose, you’ll have to leave something behind. Don’t worry, I’m in a good mood today and won’t take your life."

Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"This bet seems unfair. If I win, I get nothing."

Muru Hao said.

"Ridiculous. Do you think I can’t order you and this old man to be crushed to death on the spot? I’m giving you your life, and you still think it’s not enough?"

Jiang Chen said bluntly.

"Fine, teaching you a lesson today won’t be in vain."

Muru Hao said, suddenly launching a punch at Jiang Chen. He knew that in a verbal battle, he was no match.

Puff!

Muru Hao’s punch made the air crackle. His fist glowed with a sharp light, the Overlord Fist, a high-grade human-level combat technique with formidable attack power.

"Too weak."

Jiang Chen shook his head, standing still. As Muru Hao’s fist approached, he suddenly struck back with a lightning-fast punch.

Smack!

Jiang Chen’s and Muru Hao’s fists collided, making a crisp sound. A shocking scene unfolded.

Crack! Ah!

A惨叫伴随着骨头断裂的声音，一个身影直接飞了出去。

飞出去的自然不是江尘，而是自信膨胀的慕容豪。此刻的慕容豪，落在三丈之外，双腿颤抖，勉强稳住身子没有摔倒在地。

所有人的目光都落在慕容豪身上，顿时一片哗然。只见慕容豪身体颤抖，之前出拳的手臂已经完全扭曲，被江尘一拳打得粉碎，这条手臂算是彻底废了。

再看江尘，负手站在原地，脸上带着阳光般和煦的笑容，仿佛没有出手过一样。

“不可能，这绝不可能，怎么会这么强大的力量？”

慕容豪满脸大汗，脸色苍白如纸，他看向对面风轻云淡的江尘，心底的震撼到了难以附加的地步。

不仅仅是他，在场所有人都惊骇不已。一招打败慕容英和一招打败慕容豪，这完全是两个不同的概念。

周北辰等人看着江尘，这个如风一样的少爷，心底也泛起了惊涛骇浪。一个人的变化太大，根本无法适应。

胖瘦二老者笑着摇了摇头，果真是旷世奇葩，不仅炼丹厉害，连战力也恐怖如斯。

少爷隐藏得太深了，隐藏了十几年，真是难为他了。

江家的人都被江尘彻底征服了，江成眼中泛起了小星星，像女人泛起花痴一样。

“太恐怖了，江尘隐藏太深了，他才是天香城第一天才。”

“一拳打败了慕容豪，这要不是亲眼所见，根本无法相信。”

“看吧，接下来还有好戏，慕容豪输了，以江尘少爷的性情，今天慕容豪恐怕得不到什么好。”

很多人都知道，接下来，才是真正的好戏。

A scream accompanied by the sound of bones breaking, and a figure flew out.

Naturally, it wasn’t Jiang Chen but the overconfident Muru Hao. Muru Hao landed three zhang away, his legs trembling, barely managing to stay on his feet.

Everyone’s eyes were on Muru Hao, and a wave of shock swept through the crowd. Muru Hao’s body trembled, his previously punching arm now completely twisted, shattered by Jiang Chen’s punch, rendering it completely useless.

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. How can there be such powerful strength?"

Muru Hao was drenched in sweat, his face as pale as paper. He looked at the calm and composed Jiang Chen, feeling an overwhelming shock.

Not just him, everyone present was stunned. Defeating Muru Ying in one move and defeating Muru Hao in one move were two entirely different concepts.

Zhou Beichen and others looked at Jiang Chen, this wind-like young master, and their hearts were filled with waves of shock. The change in a person could be so great that it was hard to adapt.

The two old men, one fat and one thin, smiled and shook their heads. Truly a rare genius, not only skilled in alchemy but also terrifying in combat.

Young Master has been hiding his true strength for too long, for over a decade, it’s truly a feat.

The Jiang family was thoroughly impressed by Jiang Chen. Jiang Cheng’s eyes sparkled with admiration, like a woman in a daze.

"Too terrifying, Jiang Chen has been hiding his strength too deeply. He is the true top genius of Tianxiang City."

"Defeating Muru Hao in one punch, if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it."

"Watch, the real show is about to begin. Muru Hao has lost, and given Young Master Jiang’s character, Muru Hao won’t get off easily today."

Many people knew that the real drama was just beginning.
