Chapter 7

This punch, ineffective?

"Your brother died like this..."

A cold voice echoed, and Qin Chen's punch, now with its force spreading, struck out for the second time.

Crack...

This punch, Qin Chen directly hit Shen Linfeng's chest.

In an instant, the spiritual energy in his palm surged along his hand, striking Shen Linfeng's heart. In a moment, Shen Linfeng's heart burst, his body recoiled, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, collapsing to the ground.

One punch, easily and simply, resolved Shen Linfeng!

"Linfeng!"

Shen Chengfeng's eyes bulged, his aura surging wildly.

"What?"

Qin Cangsheng suddenly laughed, "Clan Leader Shen, are you regretting it now? The three battles of the agreed match have just begun with the first one. Is there anyone else who can step up now?"

Qin Cangsheng also didn't expect that Qin Chen not only recovered his cultivation but seemed to be even more powerful than before!

"You..."

"Clan Leader Shen!"

Chu Shanhe, however, held back Shen Chengfeng and whispered, "Although this boy is only at the Fourth Gate Wound Gate realm, his strength is bizarre. Having survived a great calamity, he must have encountered some extraordinary fortune, or perhaps he consumed some secret divine pill of the Qin family, making his strength peculiar. I think only a Sixth Gate Jing Gate realm can kill him!"

Sixth Gate Jing Gate realm!

A Sixth Gate Jing Gate realm martial artist opens the Yuzhen acupoint behind the neck, connecting the limbs, bones, and internal organs, greatly increasing their strength. Moreover, they can manifest spiritual energy, doubling their power.

"Clan Leader Shen, for this battle, my Chu family disciple will step up!" Chu Shanhe said with a gleam in his eyes.

"Clan Leader Chu." Shen Chengfeng clasped his hands and said, "Thank you!"

"You're too kind!"

Chu Shanhe stepped forward, looking at Qin Chen with a murderous gaze, then turned and said, "Yuqing, you will fight this battle!"

"Yes, Father!"

A figure stepped out from the Chu family crowd.

Elegant and graceful, charming and debonair.

These eight words came to mind as soon as this person appeared.

Chu Yuqing of the Chu family!

The elder brother of Chu Ningshi, a renowned genius of the Chu family, who has made countless women in Lingyun City lose sleep at night.

"Qin Chen!"

Chu Yuqing said calmly, "Originally, you were to be my family's son-in-law, but my sister is a beauty of heavenly grace. Despite your engagement to her, you still did despicable things to the Ling family's young miss, which is truly heartbreaking!"

"Today, you even shamelessly attacked Shen Jia's Shen Yuan, despite being the first young genius of Lingyun City. Now, it is truly heartbreaking!"

Qin Chen shook his head and said directly, "I don't have time to chat with you. As for what you said, I don't fancy Chu Ningshi, and I like Ling Feifei even less. That kind of woman, if she wants me to force myself, I'd have to be blind and deaf. Even as a servant, she wouldn't be worthy!"

Qin Chen didn't bother to explain; the truth would eventually come to light.

But to others, his words sounded extremely arrogant.

Ling Feifei, the third miss of the Ling family, though not as beautiful as Chu Ningshi, was still widely recognized as the second most beautiful woman in Lingyun City. This guy actually said she wasn't even worthy to be a servant?

If it were before, Qin Chen would indeed have been moved by Chu Ningshi's beauty.

But Chu Ningshi was a venomous woman. Just thinking of her face made him feel nauseous.

Moreover, as the Nine-Lives Heavenly Son, with his memories fused, he had seen too many women. Chu Ningshi was nothing special, and Ling Feifei was even less noteworthy.

However, Qin Chen's words provoked loud rebukes from some of the women in the crowd.

"Hmph, a lecherous rogue, even insulting Lord Chu, Lord Chu, teach him a lesson!"

"Lord Chu, this guy is shameless. Teach him a lesson, and I'll reward you well..."

"His Star Gate is disabled, yet he's still so arrogant. Lord Chu, I can't stand it anymore."

Chu Yuqing could be considered a genius of the Chu family and the epitome of a prince charming in Lingyun City. Qin Chen was simply courting death!

"Very well, very well, it seems there's no way to make you see reason. I'll just have to kill you!"

In Chu Yuqing's hand, a long sword suddenly appeared.

"Wow... Lord Chu is so handsome!"

"Men who use swords are the most handsome. Lord Chu, I want to have your children..."

"Spit, with your looks, would Lord Chu even look at you? Lord Chu, I want to have twins, no, triplets for you..."

A chorus of infatuated voices spread through the crowd.

Chu Yuqing, holding the long sword, looked at Qin Chen with a smile on his face, but his heart was filled with murderous intent.

Although his sister Chu Ningshi had ended her engagement with Qin Chen, the fact that they were once engaged could still be a blemish on her future at the Heavenly God Academy.

But if Qin Chen were killed, this person would disappear, and the past engagement would gradually be forgotten by the people of Lingyun City.

So today, Qin Chen must die.

Killing Qin Chen would dampen Qin Cangsheng's morale. Once the Ling and Chu families were ready, they would destroy the Qin family, solidifying the power structure of Lingyun City!

"So you use 'cheap' tricks!"

Seeing the long sword in Chu Yuqing's hand, emitting a faint spiritual energy, Qin Chen said calmly, "That's right, if you're going to fight, just show your weapon!"

"Die!"

Chu Yuqing waved his hand, and a sword aura, driven by spiritual energy, surged toward Qin Chen.

He was a Sixth Gate Jing Gate realm martial artist, with a strength of thirty horsepowers, and his spiritual energy was connected within his body. With the long sword in hand, he was confident.

Seeing Chu Yuqing's long sword, Qin Chen shook his head and said, "Can this even be called swordsmanship?"

Hearing this, Chu Yuqing nearly stumbled and fell.

In all of Lingyun City, who didn't know that he, Chu Yuqing, was a swordsmanship genius? And in Qin Chen's mouth, it was just "swordsmanship"?

"Yuqing, this guy is cunning. Don't let him distract you. He's trying to provoke you!" Chu Shanhe, the head of the Chu family, immediately shouted.

Provocation? He wasn't that easily swayed!

Qin Chen sneered, took a step back to dodge Chu Yuqing's attack, and turned to Qin Xinxin, saying, "Xinxin, give me the wooden sword you usually practice with!"

"Huh?"

"What are you waiting for? Give it to me!"

"Oh!"

Qin Xinxin immediately threw a wooden sword.

The wooden sword, three feet long, was made of Lingxiang wood, emitting a faint fragrance.

A wooden sword?

What does Qin Chen want to do?

Use a wooden sword against a mundane weapon?

A wooden sword is used by swordsmen for practice to prevent injury, but a mundane weapon is more powerful than a regular iron sword.

Moreover, a mundane weapon can be infused with spiritual energy, enhancing its power.

A wooden sword against a mundane long sword? Is Qin Chen courting death?
