Chapter 2984 – Repulsed by a Strong Blow
“Hahaha. Great, you just impressed me. Are all the disciples from the Outer Palace acting so arrogant like you? Do you think that you could act recklessly in front of the Inner Palace experts after defeating Chen Long? It seems like what I said about you is right. Perhaps you feel proud of your achievements, but you’re thinking too highly of yourself.”
Yue Zhangzhi burst out laughing.
“As you wish, I will give you a deadly blow!”
“You’re right, I shouldn’t think highly of myself. However, I think one blow is enough to deal with you, you piece of sh*t.”
Jiang Chen and Yue Zhangzhi struck out at the same time, even Qian Renji was unable to stop both of them. She had expected Jiang Chen to challenge the Inner Palace disciples, but she never thought the person he would deal with was Yue Zhangzhi. Yue Zhangzhi was one of the most outstanding disciples in the Inner Palace with remarkable achievement. Top 10 on the Heavenly Ascension List, he was definitely a tough opponent. Even Chen Long was ranked Top 20 on the Heavenly Ascension List. However, there were those experts who did not show their true strength and were not included on the list.
“Haha, Brother Yue. It seems like this guy has a death wish. You have to teach him a good lesson today.”
“Yes. You need to make him learn how to show some restraint. No.1 of Outer Palace is not worth mentioning in front of us, Inner Palace disciples.”
“Well, he is too rude and reckless. It is impossible to compare a Divine King to a Hierarch expert.”
Everyone in the Inner Palace could not help but pray for Jiang Chen silently. Since he was inferior in strength, he should have kept a low profile and remained silent behind Master Ji. Why did he do this intentionally? He could not blame anyone as he loved being in the limelight.
“Go to hell!”
Yue Zhangzhi struck out ferociously. Even Qian Renji did not expect him to use such a strong blow when dealing with an Outer Palace disciple. After he launched the attack, those Half-step Hierarch experts beside him were slightly startled and took a cold breath. He struck out at full force, without showing the slightest hesitation and restraint.
Jiang Chen’s eyes turned cold and snorted fearlessly. He struck out a strong blow as well, with a charming and overbearing pose. None of them expected Jiang Chen to attack soon after Yue Zhangzhi’s attack. This blow was beyond expectation as they guessed Jiang Chen would retreat swiftly or even get killed with one blow. However, both of them managed to remain calm and unmoved.
Bang……
Jiang Chen struck out once again. There was no change in his face and he was still standing proudly. While one the other side, Yue Zhengzhi took three steps backward surprisingly!
Silence reigned for a while. Despite the huge difference between Jiang Chen and Yue Zhengzhi, both of them were fighting toe to toe and the result was out of their expectation.
A Hierarch expert was repulsed!
Yue Zhangzhi looked ghastly pale. He was uninjured, however, he had to admit that he underestimated Jiang Chen and he just paid a price for it. Even though it seemed nothing, his position in the Inner Palace might be affected. It sounded unbelievable that a Hierarch expert was repulsed by a Divine King but it was a fact. Yue Zhangzhi, who was used to the glory of the Inner Palace, fixed his eyes on Jiang Chen blankly. He was absolutely dumbfounded.
“Such terrifying strength.”
Yue Zhangzhi gritted his teeth and said under his breath. Even though it looked like a harmless blow, it had brought such a huge humiliation to him. Although none of them mentioned it, he still lost to Jiang Chen in this fight. They were no fools after all. More precisely, anyone in the Inner Palace would not be able to cancel out Yue Zhengzhi’s attack easily. How was it possible for Jiang Chen to do so? Yue Zhengzhi felt confused and doubtful.
Once again, there was a remarkable improvement in Jiang Chen’s strength. Apparently, it was not difficult for Jiang Chen to deal with a Hierarch expert. He was also fully confident that he could kill a Half-step Hierarch expert instantly! Jiang Chen was not afraid of those Early Hierarch Realm experts anymore. Perhaps they were looking down upon him as a disciple from the Outer Palace, however, he also did not pay any attention to them as well.
“I thought you’re an invincible opponent, it seems like you’re just an ugly son of a b*tch.”
Jiang Chen heaved a breath and shook his head. Yue Zhangzhi gritted his teeth in anger, took a step forward and rushed at Jiang Chen directly.
“Yue Zhangzhi, what are you doing? Enough. It’s over. Are you trying to bully the Outer Palace disciples? Don't you feel ashamed of yourself? If you try to strike out again, you are only going to disgrace the name of the Inner Palace.”
Qian Renji snarled. Yue Zhangzhi stopped and took a deep breath. The conflict had finally come to an end. Even though Jiang Chen was able to repulse Yue Zhangzhi, it did not mean Yue Zhangzhi was afraid of Jiang Chen. It wasn’t uncertain what would happen if they fought for real.
“Oh kid, you really have something on the ball. It seems like we should not underestimate the geniuses from the Outer Palace. Yue, you shouldn’t stir up trouble since you’ve lost. Our mission this time is the Secret Expedition and all of us are teammates so we shouldn’t hurt each other. Haha. I am Huang Bo from the Inner Palace.”
A short-haired young man, dressed in a yellow tight shirt, said. He had sharp eyes and looked lean, but his spirit was slightly superior to Yue Zhangzhi.
Jiang Chen slightly narrowed his eyes, and his face turned gloomy. Huang Bo’s smile looked friendly and kind. Jiang Chen was not willing to deal with this kind of person. From appearance, he seemed harmless and kind, but in actuality he was ruthless and wicked. Perhaps even Yue Zhangzhi was no match for him.
Jiang Chen nodded and fell silent. Meanwhile Yue Zhangzhi snorted and glared at Jiang Chen with sharp eyes. He did not say anything.
“Brother Jiang, how is it going? Congratulations, top disciple of the Outer Palace. Hahaha.”
Sheng Bing said smilingly. He was slightly startled as he did not expect to meet Jiang Chen here.
“I am just lucky. I am really afraid to act recklessly in front of those Inner Palace disciples.”
Jiang Chen said and shook his head. There was a little play on words. Yue Zhangzhi’s face turned blue at that moment.
“Brother Jiang!”
Sheng Kun did not speak much, he greeted Jiang Chen with a nod. The disciples from the Inner Palace were stunned when they heard Sheng Kun call him ‘Brother Jiang’. They wondered what Jiang Chen did to make Sheng Kun, who was ranked 5th place on the Heavenly Ascension List, address him as ‘Brother Jiang’.
Jiang Chen answered with a faint smile. Sheng Kun was slightly superior to Yue Zhangzhi. And while Sheng Bing was slightly inferior, he was still a Half-step Hierarch expert who was ranked Top 20th place on the Heavenly Ascension List.
Both of them were extraordinary and unbeatable so those disciples in the Inner Palace rarely sat against them. Except the Top 3 on the Heavenly Ascension List, no one would dare to stand against the two brothers.
