Chapter 96

Liwushuang's body was directly split in half and fell on the battlefield, his blood and internal organs staining the platform red. The pungent smell of blood spread, creating a scene of extreme cruelty and brutality, making people feel a chill in their hearts.

Everyone's faces changed. Just how crazy was this person? He wanted to kill, and even Liang Xiao couldn't stop him. This person was simply a madman. It seemed that there was no one in this world he dared not kill. It looked like even if Liwushuang was the son of the Heavenly Sword Sect's master, he would still be killed without hesitation.

"Looking for death."

Liang Xiao was furious. As a high-level expert in the Heavenly Pill Realm, he couldn't save someone from a person in the Human Pill Realm. This was a kind of irony for him.

The best way to remove this irony was to personally tear Jiang Chen to pieces.

Swish!

Jiang Chen's blood wings trembled, and he rose into the air again. He didn't want to face Liang Xiao, a genius in the late-stage Heavenly Pill Realm, whom he couldn't deal with at the moment.

"Die for me."

Liang Xiao wouldn't let up, leaping into the air with incredible speed, charging towards Jiang Chen. The aura of a late-stage Heavenly Pill Realm expert was released. If he used his full strength, even with Jiang Chen's blood wings, he couldn't escape.

"Liang Xiao, who gave you the right to break the rules of the competition?"

Guan Yiyun also moved, his body flickering to appear in front of Liang Xiao, completely blocking him.

"Guan Yiyun, get out of my way, I want to kill him."

Liang Xiao roared in anger.

"Liang Xiao, you have no shame. Don't forget your identity. Jiang Chen is the first place winner of the competition, not someone you can kill just because you want to. Liwushuang died because he didn't admit defeat. You running onto the battlefield to deal with the competition participants, what kind of situation is this? If this continues, the future Qi Prefecture competition won't need to be held."

Guan Yiyun wouldn't let up. At this moment, if he didn't step forward to protect Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen wouldn't be able to leave Xuan Yang Square today.

"Do I need a reason to kill a wandering cultivator? What qualifications does a wandering cultivator have to be the first place winner?"

Liang Xiao's anger didn't subside.

"According to the rules, Jiang Chen can choose to join a sect and will no longer be a wandering cultivator."

Guan Yiyun said, turning to look at Jiang Chen: "Jiang Chen, I now invite you to join the Xuan Yi Sect. Are you willing?"

"Willing."

Jiang Chen smiled. Of course, he was willing. The situation today had already reached this point. If he didn't join the Xuan Yi Sect, even if he escaped today, he would have no place to stay in Qi Prefecture in the future, and the first-place reward would probably be gone as well.

"Did you hear that? From now on, Jiang Chen is an outer sect disciple of the Xuan Yi Sect. Whoever dares to deal with him is my enemy."

Guan Yiyun's voice was loud, reaching the ears of everyone present.

"Liang Xiao is too much, completely disregarding his image. Liwushuang didn't admit defeat, so he was looking for death. It's not Jiang Chen's fault. This is a life-and-death battlefield."

"Exactly. Now that Jiang Chen has joined the Xuan Yi Sect, he has a backing. There will probably be more drama today."

"Indeed, this year's Qi Prefecture competition has seen Jiang Chen as a major dark horse, causing a lot of upheaval. The North and South Dynasty hasn't spoken yet, but they won't let Jiang Chen off. If the North and South Dynasty insists on acting, even Guan Yiyun can't stop them."

...

Many people were discussing. Jiang Chen's victory as the first place winner signified the end of the Qi Prefecture competition, but it was clear that more exciting events would follow, and a good show was about to unfold.

Jiang Chen's fame was made today, and he was thoroughly known throughout Qi Prefecture. In this battle, he eliminated Ling Ao and Liwushuang, and even made Yi Qingzi admit defeat. It was hard for him not to become famous.

At this moment, the Little Demon King Han Yan also regained his senses, temporarily suppressing the demonic nature within him. He happened to see the scene of Jiang Chen killing Liwushuang, which truly shocked him to the extreme. Now that Jiang Chen was in a dangerous situation, he naturally had to step in.

"Listen up, from now on, Jiang Chen is my Little Demon King's life-and-death friend. Whoever dares to deal with him is my enemy."

The Little Demon King also made his stance clear, firmly protecting Jiang Chen. No one dared to underestimate the Little Demon King. Although he was currently at the peak of the Human Pill Realm, everyone knew that once the power of the Ancient Heavenly Demon awakened, his cultivation would soar, and his potential would be no less than Guan Yiyun or even the North and South Dynasty. Moreover, the Little Demon King had the Xuan Yi Sect behind him, and no one dared to take him lightly.

Jiang Chen's blood wings fluttered, and he descended from the sky into the Xuan Yi Sect's camp. Immediately, he was met with the nearly murderous gazes of the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Burning Heaven Pavilion disciples. However, the Xuan Yi Sect disciples were completely different, with many immediately surrounding him.

"Congratulations, Senior Brother Jiang, for becoming a disciple of the Xuan Yi Sect."

"Senior Brother Jiang's skills are unparalleled. You even killed Liwushuang. In the future, in the Xuan Yi Sect, we hope Senior Brother Jiang will take care of us."

"Exactly, Senior Brother Jiang's talent is unmatched, even surpassing the North and South Dynasty. He will surely become the hope of the Xuan Yi Sect."

The Xuan Yi Sect disciples came one by one, flattering Jiang Chen. They weren't fools. With Jiang Chen's performance today, even if he entered the Xuan Yi Sect, he would certainly be valued by the sect. Moreover, Jiang Chen's potential was boundless, and his future achievements were limitless. This was the perfect time to attach himself to a powerful figure.

Liang Xiao was so angry that he gnashed his teeth, but with Guan Yiyun blocking him, he had no choice. Moreover, the competition had just ended, and he was about to attack the first-place winner, which would affect his status. Besides, Jiang Chen was now a member of the Xuan Yi Sect. According to the rules of the Qi Prefecture competition, after the competition, the disciples of the four major sects were not allowed to fight in Xuan Yang Square.

After all, the Qi Prefecture competition was a symbol of Qi Prefecture, with thousands of people watching. If a fight broke out, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"North and South Dynasty, aren't you going to announce it?"

Guan Yiyun looked at the North and South Dynasty in the distance.

The North and South Dynasty had a cold expression, his icy gaze falling on Jiang Chen. He loudly declared, "I announce that this year's first place winner of the Qi Prefecture competition, an outer sect disciple of the Xuan Yi Sect, is Jiang Chen."

The North and South Dynasty actually announced it, which left many people feeling extremely puzzled. People originally thought that even if the North and South Dynasty didn't kill Jiang Chen, they would certainly make things difficult for him, but they didn't expect him to announce Jiang Chen as the first-place winner so quickly.

"Damn, I lost four hundred yuan dan. That dead dog really got lucky."

"Heaven is blind. Jiang Chen actually won first place. Liwushuang was really too weak. It's a waste of my feelings, and I had such high hopes for him."

"Damn, that dead dog really made a big profit this time."

Those who had bet on the big yellow dog were so angry that they hit their heads on the ground, especially those who had made a second bet with the big yellow dog, who were so regretful that their faces turned green.

The North and South Dynasty took out a storage bag and casually threw it to Jiang Chen. Many people looked at it with envy, knowing that the storage bag contained the rewards for the competition: a mid-grade battle weapon, a storage ring, and a ground yuan fruit.

Jiang Chen opened the storage bag and saw a long sword with a brilliant glow, a light blue storage ring emitting a faint luster, and a jade box beside the storage ring, from which a faint energy wave emanated, which was the ground yuan fruit.

Jiang Chen sent out a divine thought, infusing it into the storage ring. The storage ring immediately flew out, and with a thought, the long sword and the ground yuan fruit fell into the storage ring. Jiang Chen took out the storage ring, put it on his finger, and casually threw the storage bag aside.

The storage ring had a space at least the size of two rooms, sufficient for temporary storage. Moreover, the storage ring was controlled by divine thought, unlike the low-level storage bags that could be opened with yuan force.

If it were in his previous life, Jiang Chen wouldn't even glance at such a storage ring, but given the current situation, this storage ring was still quite good.

"Congratulations, Brother Jiang."

The Little Demon King bowed to Jiang Chen.

"Don't be in a hurry to congratulate me. The matter isn't over yet."

Jiang Chen smiled, knowing that things wouldn't end here. The North and South Dynasty wouldn't let it go so easily.

Sure enough, the North and South Dynasty gave Jiang Chen a cold smile and then loudly announced, "I announce that the Qi Prefecture competition has officially ended, but next, I have some personal matters to handle."

After saying this, the North and South Dynasty didn't make any move, but his entire body was already ghost-like in front of Jiang Chen.

"Kneel."

The North and South Dynasty's aura was overwhelming, a strong and noble aura rushing towards Jiang Chen.

Rustle!

The North and South Dynasty's action immediately caused a stir. Indeed, the matter wasn't over yet.

"The North and South Dynasty has really lost it. Now that the Qi Prefecture competition has ended, he is dealing with Jiang Chen on a personal basis. Jiang Chen is in danger."

"Guan Yiyun can block Liang Xiao, but he can't block the North and South Dynasty."

"The four major sects have a rule that after the competition, no fighting is allowed in Xuan Yang Square. The North and South Dynasty is breaking the rules."

The scene became agitated again, and people focused their attention on Jiang Chen, speculating on how he would deal with the North and South Dynasty, who was a proud and difficult person to handle.

"North and South Dynasty, what are you doing?"

Guan Yiyun quickly blocked Jiang Chen, glaring at the North and South Dynasty.

"Defeated opponent, get out of my way."

A powerful wave of energy shot out from the North and South Dynasty, pushing Guan Yiyun back two steps.

Everyone sighed. The North and South Dynasty was too strong. Even the powerful Guan Yiyun was no match for him. Some people remembered that when the North and South Dynasty fought Guan Yiyun, he defeated him with just one move, creating an unreplicable legend.

"Jiang Chen, kneel for me."

The North and South Dynasty said in an extremely domineering tone.

"North and South Dynasty, Jiang Chen is now a member of the Xuan Yi Sect. Do you dare to disregard the rules of the Qi Prefecture competition?"

Guan Yiyun didn't back down. If he couldn't protect Jiang Chen, no one could protect him today. The North and South Dynasty could crush Jiang Chen with just one finger.

"Rules? I, the North and South Dynasty, never follow rules. Don't use rules to pressure me. If you don't get out of my way, I'll kill you too."

The North and South Dynasty's domineering attitude was terrifying.
