Chapter 25

The scene suddenly became incredibly tense. The originally desperate crowd of the Murong family was once again ignited with the fire of hope, while although the people of the Jiang family still had excited looks on their faces, they could not help but show signs of worry.

The young master indeed displayed a very strong presence. Although he had just advanced to the Qi Sea Realm, even mid-stage Qi Sea Realm experts were not a match for him in one move. However, Murong Zhan was not an ordinary Qi Sea Realm expert. Such a figure was just a step away from the Human Pill Realm, a major power in Tianxiang City, and extremely difficult to deal with. To put it bluntly, Murong Zhan was the capital that the Murong family had stood for so many years.

However, Young Master Jiang Chen had already created one miracle after another. Since the young master changed, he had never done anything without being sure. Today, by taking the initiative to challenge Murong Zhan, he must have had a certain level of confidence.

Boom!

Murong Zhan's aura shook, and the primordial energy surged like a tidal wave, covering a radius of three zhang, clearly demonstrating his peak Qi Sea Realm cultivation, which was shocking.

Murong Zhan's pupils slightly contracted, and he stared intently at Jiang Chen opposite him, trying to gauge his depth. Unfortunately, he was disappointed.

Jiang Chen's face was as calm as an ancient well, his eyes as tranquil as water, and his entire person was like a steady mountain, making it impossible to gauge his depth. He seemed to be naturally confident, having absolute control over everything.

"Boy, let me see where your confidence comes from."

Murong Zhan made his move. With a sweep of his large sleeve, a primordial energy whirlwind, like a substantial wave, rushed towards Jiang Chen.

"Good."

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up. He needed such an opponent. The surge of primordial energy within his Qi Sea instantly released a surge of yang energy. Just in terms of the quality of primordial energy, Jiang Chen was far superior to Murong Zhan.

Whistling...

The wind and waves rose, and those who were closer felt a sense of suffocation. No one was not surprised, as the primordial energy aura released by Jiang Chen was not inferior to Murong Zhan's.

Boom...

The two waves of qi collided, and the air was directly shattered. The aftermath swept the scene, lifting a large piece of the hard marble underfoot.

"Good boy."

Murong Zhan was greatly alarmed. His body trembled, and he attacked Jiang Chen like lightning. The more powerful Jiang Chen appeared, the more threatened he felt. The survival of the Murong family was all on this battle. If he lost, everything would be over.

Rumble...

The air trembled as Murong Zhan threw a punch. His fist was covered with streaks of light, making a crackling sound. This punch carried an immense amount of force and reached Jiang Chen in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Chen's eyes flashed. He liked direct confrontation the most. Such collisions were the best way to test one's combat strength.

Although Jiang Chen was a sage in his previous life, he was not now. This body still needed to be cultivated bit by bit. Every successful superior was accompanied by countless battles, with countless bones and blood under their feet.

Bang!

The two fists, enveloped in primordial energy, collided fiercely. The sound of metal striking metal echoed, and the void trembled violently.

Thud thud!

Jiang Chen took two steps back to steady himself. Looking at Murong Zhan, who had only taken one step back, the shock on his face was even more intense.

"Is this bastard a monster? His punch just now had at least 25,000 pounds of force, almost on par with me."

Murong Zhan's heart was not calm. He had never seen anyone so strong. Although he had the upper hand in that punch, he was not happy at all because he had not caused any injury to Jiang Chen.

On the other side, Jiang Chen had a faint smile on his lips, still looking as if everything was under control. Although he had been pushed back two steps, Murong Zhan must have been even more uncomfortable.

Murong Zhan's advantage was only in primordial energy, but in physical strength, he could not compare to Jiang Chen, who had cultivated the Dragon Transformation Technique. In fact, at this moment, half of Murong Zhan's body felt numb and sore.

"Good."

Jiang Zhenhai praised, equally surprised by Jiang Chen's performance.

"Black Eagle Strike."

Murong Zhan roared, unleashing his most powerful combat technique to defeat Jiang Chen in one strike.

Black Eagle Strike was a mid-grade human-level combat technique, known for its fierce attack, and it was Murong Zhan's signature move.

Whistle!

Murong Zhan leaped over a dozen feet high, emitting an eagle's cry. He assumed the posture of an eagle, with primordial energy surging, rushing towards Jiang Chen. In front of him, a phantom black eagle condensed.

"Lord Murong's Black Eagle Strike, Jiang Chen is definitely no match."

"This is a mid-grade human-level combat technique, very terrifying. Jiang Chen is only at the initial stage of the Qi Sea Realm. How can he be Lord Murong's match? We are saved."

The faces of the Murong family members were filled with joy. Murong Zhan's peak Qi Sea Realm cultivation was not to be underestimated.

"Be careful, Dust. This is Murong Zhan's signature move, not to be underestimated."

Jiang Zhenhai quickly warned.

Ignoring Jiang Zhenhai's words, Jiang Chen's face remained calm. The dragon pattern and primordial energy in his Qi Sea continuously surged, flowing through his limbs and bones to his fingertips.

Buzz...

His fingertips were covered in golden light, pure yang energy spreading, emitting a buzzing sound. Then, Jiang Chen suddenly pointed out a finger.

Whoosh~

A piercing sound echoed, and everyone saw a brilliant golden finger illuminate the night, rushing towards Murong Zhan with a surging momentum.

"What?"

Murong Zhan exclaimed in shock. With his keen eyesight, he could see the terror of the golden finger. Such a combat technique was clearly beyond the human level. The aura emitted by this finger completely locked onto his, the aftermath sealed a portion of the void, and the speed was so fast that there was no way to dodge, only to confront it head-on.

"Let's go all out."

Murong Zhan gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with ferocity, pushing the Black Eagle Strike to its limit. He did not believe that he, at the peak of the Qi Sea Realm, would be defeated by a mere initial stage Qi Sea Realm youth.

Boom...

A dull collision sound echoed, golden waves surged, and the air trembled violently. Murong Zhan's Black Eagle Strike was shattered under the impact of Jiang Chen's One Yang Finger, completely destroyed.

The golden finger struck Murong Zhan, who let out a scream and was sent flying like a cannonball.

Bang!

Murong Zhan landed ten zhang away, crashing into the ground, the solid rock beneath him shattered.

Ah! Spurt!

Murong Zhan spat out a stream of blood, his face as pale as paper. Although the One Yang Finger did not take his life, it left him with only 10% of his combat strength.

Everyone's faces changed, even Jiang Zhenhai's mouth was wide open, just like the Jiang family's loyalists, full of disbelief. The way they looked at Jiang Chen was filled with fear and admiration.

Who would have thought that Murong Zhan would be defeated so thoroughly.

"The move Dust just used was clearly beyond the human level. Such a high-level combat technique does not exist in this small Tianxiang City. What kind of high-level mentor did this boy receive to achieve such a level?"

Jiang Zhenhai muttered to himself, the change in Jiang Chen was too great for him to adapt to.

The faces of the Murong family members who were besieged were ashen, their last hope shattered. Even Murong Zhan had been defeated by Jiang Chen, and in Tianxiang City, the Murong family had completely lost the capital to compete with the Jiang family.

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible."

Murong Zhan propped himself up with one elbow, the other hand covering his chest, shaking his head. He had never imagined that he would be defeated by a youth two levels below him.

"Victory is the king, defeat is the bandit. Murong Zhan, what do you have to say?"

Jiang Chen walked to Murong Zhan, dressed in black, one hand behind his back, looking coldly at the fallen Murong Zhan, like a king looking down on his subjects, casually deciding the fate of others.

"Ha ha ha... Ridiculous, ridiculous, utterly ridiculous... cough cough."

Murong Zhan laughed to the sky. He had been defeated, not by his old rival Jiang Zhenhai, but by a wasteful young man he had never even glanced at. How ridiculous, how laughable, how ironic.

If he said he had no regrets, Murong Zhan was too unwilling, but today he was defeated with a clear conscience.

"I have been defeated, but I still beg you to spare my descendants."

Murong Zhan said in a pleading tone.

Jiang Chen nodded inwardly. No matter what, Murong Zhan still thought of his family at the last moment, which showed he was a man. Therefore, he decided to give Murong Zhan a quick death.

Bang!

Jiang Chen struck without warning, a palm hitting Murong Zhan's crown. Murong Zhan's eyes lost focus, and he fell straight down. Thus, a major power in Tianxiang City was completely eliminated.

Jiang Chen killed Murong Zhan because he would not give his enemies any promises. Murong Zhan was definitely going to die, and whether or not to spare his family was irrelevant.

"Lord."

"Father."

The Murong family members screamed. Among them were two of Murong Zhan's children, looking at Jiang Chen with eyes full of hatred. In their eyes, Jiang Chen was a butcher, a demon who killed without blinking.

Jiang Chen's eyes were calm, such a look had no effect on him. Cruelty was the best description of the cultivation world, where the strong preyed on the weak. In Jiang Chen's world, enemies were just to be destroyed. If you showed any mercy to your enemies, you would face a hundredfold retaliation.

"Ah!"

Murong Zhan sighed, feeling a bit lost. After so many years of rivalry, it was over like this.

"Dust, the Murong family has been destroyed. What will you do with the Murong family members?"

Jiang Zhenhai asked.

The Murong family members looked at Jiang Chen with hope. Their fate was in the hands of this little demon. One word from him could decide their life or death.

"Those with the Jiang family surname will have their cultivation abolished. The others will each cut off one arm, then be driven out of Tianxiang City, never to step into Tianxiang City again."

Jiang Chen said coldly, deciding the fate of everyone with one sentence.
