Boom...
The Six Yang Mystic Finger is a ground-level combat technique. Even if only the One Yang Finger is used, its power is astonishing. Wherever it passes, the air turns black and emits a rumbling sound.
"What?"
The originally furious old man suddenly let out a cry of alarm. A strong sense of danger rose from the depths of his heart, but the speed of the One Yang Finger was too fast, and there was no time to dodge. At the critical moment, the old man struck out with a palm to block it.
Crack!
Under the impact of the One Yang Finger, the palm imprint was as fragile as tofu and was directly shattered.
Bang!
The One Yang Finger struck the old man head-on, and a jet of blood spurted from his shoulder. Everyone saw that the old man's arm was cleanly severed and flew out, with blood gushing out like a fountain.
Ah!
The old man let out a惨叫, his eyes filled with terror. He was still in shock, and if he hadn't reacted quickly and shifted his body at the critical moment, this finger would not have just severed his arm but would have cost him his life.
"What kind of combat technique is this? So powerful."
"Even the void resonates with it. This combat technique is terrifying; I've never seen anything like it."
"How much has Jiang Chen hidden? Just a Ninth Stage Qi Realm, and he seriously injured a Mid Qi Sea Realm expert. It's unbelievable."
"Is this freak a reincarnation of a sage?"
Many people exclaimed in shock, their faces pale. This was too terrifying. The scene before them made it seem like a dream.
Even Jiang Zhenhai was surprised, his mouth wide open. The combat technique Jiang Chen used was definitely not from the Jiang family. The strongest combat technique of the Jiang family was only a mid-grade human-level technique, but Jiang Chen's technique clearly exceeded the human level.
On the battle platform, after severely injuring the old man, Jiang Chen's body also began to sway. His face was pale, and he was on the verge of falling. With his Ninth Stage Qi Realm strength, forcefully using a high-grade ground-level combat technique, the consumption was immense. It drained all of Jiang Chen's essence energy, and the dragon pattern in his dantian dimmed.
The last time he dealt with Murong Hao, he only used the essence light of the One Yang Finger. This time, he went all out.
Jiang Chen quickly took a Human Essence Pill and used the Dragon Transformation Technique to rapidly recover his strength.
"Chen."
Jiang Zhenhai finally reacted, immediately jumping onto the battle platform and coming to Jiang Chen's side.
"Father, kill him."
Jiang Chen's face was cold, his tone icy.
Jiang Zhenhai looked up at the heavily injured old man with a severed arm. A hint of determination and ruthlessness appeared in his eyes. The Li family of Chicheng had offended them, but he would absolutely support his son.
"Alright."
Jiang Zhenhai's late Qi Sea Realm aura suddenly burst forth. He took a step forward, and under the pressure of his powerful aura, the already severely injured old man couldn't even move. Jiang Zhenhai struck the old man's crown with a palm, and he died on the spot.
The entire venue fell silent, a deathly silence. Only the sound of blood dripping from the battle platform and the pungent smell of blood stimulated everyone's nerves, making them feel a chill.
Wow!
Finally, the scene became agitated, and all the shock erupted at once. Everyone could predict that Tianxiang City would face a major upheaval, one that would overturn its history.
Too ruthless, almost brutal. People focused their gaze on the fifteen-year-old boy, whose cold face carried an incomparably strong mind.
Decisive, ruthless, he was only fifteen, and if not for seeing it with their own eyes, no one would believe it.
His eyes were cold as ice.
His face was as calm as water.
His depth of thought was like the ocean.
His courage was unmatched.
He exuded a regal aura, and once he showed his ruthlessness, it made people tremble. No one knew how a person could change so quickly, and even fewer knew that this fifteen-year-old body harbored the soul of a thousand-year-old ancestor.
The Murong family members were pale-faced, only now realizing that the two lying in the blood were honored guests of their entire Murong family. Now, they had died on the battle platform. They had been confident and came with high spirits, but who could have predicted such an outcome?
"Jiang Zhenhai, Jiang Chen, do you know who you killed? That was the Li family's young master."
Murong Zhan's face was red, his voice stern, but he couldn't help feeling a sense of joy. Jiang Chen had killed Li Changhong, and the Li family would not let this go. If the Li family retaliated, the Jiang family would be in trouble.
"Hmph!"
Jiang Chen coldly glanced at Murong Zhan and waved his hand, sending two red flames to Li Changhong and the old man.
Sizzle!
The flames of the Flame Tiger were incredibly powerful, and the two bodies instantly turned into a sea of fire.
Sigh!
Even Murong Zhan couldn't help but draw a deep breath. This boy was too ruthless, his mindset far beyond what others could imagine. After killing them, he even burned their bodies, clearly intent on completely offending the Li family.
"Fine, Jiang Chen, you're ruthless. Let's go."
Murong Zhan had originally planned to take the bodies of Li Changhong and the old man back to the Li family, but Jiang Chen's ruthlessness had burned the bodies.
"Stop."
Jiang Zhenhai shouted, "Murong Zhan, are you just going to leave? Have you forgotten the bet? From now on, your Murong family's alchemy shop belongs to the Jiang family."
The Murong family members' faces changed. The alchemy shop was the most important part of the Murong family. Even if business was currently slow, they couldn't just hand it over. Moreover, this was a matter of pride.
However, they had issued the challenge, and the terms of the bet were their own. Returning now in front of so many people was not an option.
"Rest assured, I won't cheat."
Murong Zhan coldly snorted and led the Murong family away, somewhat in a hurry, like the day they had gone to the city lord's residence for a wedding.
The Murong family had come with the intention of certain victory and had even planned their strategy in advance. They never expected such an outcome.
On the battle platform, Jiang Chen took a Human Essence Pill and, with the help of the Dragon Transformation Technique, quickly recovered his essence energy. Even with his current cultivation, using the Six Yang Mystic Finger, even just the One Yang Finger, was quite a strain.
"Chen, are you alright?"
Jiang Zhenhai looked concerned.
"I'm fine, Father, let's go."
Jiang Chen's face was calm. He jumped off the battle platform and walked towards the city lord's residence, with the Jiang family members following behind. Their faces did not show the joy of victory but were filled with deep worry.
They couldn't help but worry. Jiang Chen had killed the Li family's young master, and this news would soon reach Chicheng. The Li family would not let this go. If the Li family retaliated, what could the Jiang family do to resist?
"Jiang Chen is too powerful. To use a Ninth Stage Qi Realm to defeat a Mid Qi Sea Realm, he is truly a prodigy."
"Although the Jiang family has won, they have also brought a greater crisis. I believe it won't be long before the Li family of Chicheng arrives."
"Alas! Tianxiang City is about to change. Who knows who will come out on top?"
...
The storm is coming, and the wind is already blowing. One wave has not yet subsided, and another is rising. Chicheng, as the most powerful of the twenty-eight cities in this vast domain, rarely meddles in the affairs of other cities, but this time, the Li family will definitely take action.
Murong family!
"Lord, are we really going to give the alchemy shop to the Jiang family? This is our foundation."
Someone asked, unwillingly.
"Of course. I fear they will have the means to take it but not the means to use it. Murong Tian, go to Chicheng immediately and inform the Li family that their young master has been killed."
Murong Tian bowed and left.
"Watch this. It won't be long before the Jiang family is completely wiped out from Tianxiang City. Then, the alchemy shop will still be ours, and the Murong family will dominate Tianxiang City."
Murong Zhan's face was cold, and this move of using others to do the dirty work was ruthless.
On the other side, the Jiang family!
"City Lord, the Li family will definitely seek revenge. We need to prepare in advance."
Zhou Beichen said.
Jiang Zhenhai frowned. Facing the powerful Li family, what could he do? His gaze involuntarily turned to Jiang Chen.
"Everything is under control."
Jiang Chen said only four words, "Everything is under control." A faint regal aura emanated from him, and his face was calm, full of confidence.
That calm and composed demeanor seemed to suggest that even if the sky fell, it wouldn't matter.
Everyone looked at each other, unsure where this young master's confidence came from. After all, this was the Li family of Chicheng. However, Young Master Chen had indeed created one miracle after another.
Jiang Chen's confidence also infected everyone. He seemed to be a born leader, evoking a sense of awe.
Everyone had the same thought: as long as Young Master Chen was there, everything would be fine.
At this moment, even Jiang Zhenhai couldn't help but see Jiang Chen as the mainstay.
"I believe in the young master. If he says so, he must have a plan. We should focus on our own tasks and first reclaim the Murong family's alchemy shop."
Zhou Beichen said.
"No need."
Jiang Chen said calmly, "I need to go into seclusion. No one is to disturb me. Also, Father, gather all the Jiang family's combat forces."
"Gather combat forces? Chen, what are you going to do?"
Jiang Zhenhai was taken aback, and everyone else was also confused.
"I don't know what the Li family of Chicheng will do, but I know that tonight, the Murong family will be wiped out from Tianxiang City."
Jiang Chen finished speaking and turned to walk towards his private residence. He never liked to drag things out, and Tianxiang City could not accommodate two tigers.
Murong Zhan was definitely trying to use the Li family to deal with the Jiang family and benefit from the situation. Since that's the case, Jiang Chen would destroy the Murong family first. In his mind, enemies were meant to be destroyed.
"Does the young master mean to declare war on the Murong family tonight?"
Zhou Beichen looked at Jiang Chen's back, stunned.
"Follow what Chen said and gather all the Jiang family's combat forces."
Jiang Zhenhai's aura intensified.
Tianxiang City would undergo a complete transformation. The always shrewd Murong Zhan would never have expected Jiang Chen to act at this moment.
