Chapter 3104 – The Two of You Can Come Together
“As you wish. You will lose very, very badly.”
Tianyin the Enlightened said lightly, as though he had Kouxiang Gangmen completely figured out.
At this moment, of the dozen or so Hierarch Realm experts in the crowd, seven were highly respected seniors. Of the remaining four, two were women. That left only two Early Hierarch Realm experts who wanted to give it a try. After all, if they could win this martial contest for a marriage, not only would they win the beauty, they would also become the ideal son-in-law of the Lord of Tongyou Boundary. Who wouldn’t want to take part in such a good thing? But the minimum requirement was the Early Hierarch Realm. Everyone else simply didn’t have the slightest chance.
“I am Zhang Liaoyuan! Though I lack talent, I would like to give it a try. I hope the City Lord will allow it!”
“I am Xu Jianshan! I would also like to challenge Tianyin the Enlightened of Tianluo Temple and the young master of Penglai Boundary.”
When these two stepped out, Tao Qianjun, the Lord of Tongyou Boundary, reacted slightly, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary. He knew both of them. Zhang Liaoyuan was one of his advisors, and Xu Jianshan was also an overlord in his own corner of Tongyou Boundary. Both of them were quite strong, at the Early Hierarch Realm. Anyone who could become a respected Hierarch was naturally no ordinary person. But the two of them might not be a match for Tianyin the Enlightened and Kouxiang Gangmen, because those two had already reached the peak of the Early Hierarch Realm. Barring any accidents, the final prince consort would still come from between Tianyin the Enlightened and Kouxiang Gangmen.
“Good! You two are both talents of my Tongyou Boundary. This contest will surely show us a battle of the century. I am very gratified, very gratified. Hahaha.”
Tao Qianjun laughed loudly. With green leaves to set off the red flowers, it also made him look fair and impartial.
“How about counting me in?”
Jiang Chen took a step forward and said with a faint smile.
His appearance made Kouxiang Gangmen and Tianyin the Enlightened pause. This person’s strength gave them a hint of danger, because his strength felt unfathomable.
Jiang Chen was calm and composed. He stood proudly in the air with a relaxed expression, looking at Tao Qianjun on the city tower with an indifferent gaze.
“And who might you be?”
Tao Qianjun asked indifferently.
“A wandering cultivator. My name is Jiang Chen!”
Beneath the green veil, in a pair of beautiful, flickering eyes, there was an endless tangle of emotions: panic, excitement, shock, joy, and sorrow. They were impossible to describe or explain, a mix of every feeling. Her thoughts raced and turned into tears she couldn’t explain, which poured down her face.
“It’s really him, it’s really him…”
Xue Qianying stared at Jiang Chen in disbelief. She had even seen this scene in her dreams: him fighting all the heroes alone for her sake. But had that figure really appeared for her?
Xue Qianying didn’t know whether Jiang Chen knew she was here, nor did she know why he had come. It was just that at this moment, everything seemed so full of hope. If he took first place, then the man she loved might once again become that all-powerful, peerless hero from her dreams.
It was all as if heaven had arranged it on purpose. At this scene, the bitterness and desolation at the corners of Xue Qianying’s mouth turned into a small hope, just as things should have been in her heart.
Not long ago, Xue Qianying had almost given up on life. She never expected that heaven would play such a joke on her. She didn’t know whether what she felt for Jiang Chen was love, but if she could marry him, it would probably be far better than marrying a stranger. At least there was no longer that inexplicable resistance in her heart. The person who had appeared in her dreams countless times had finally become real.
“It’s him, it’s him, it’s really him! He’s the one who killed Bi Jiagang. I saw it back then. This guy killed Bi Jiagang in a single move. It was terrifying!”
“Really? You’re not joking, are you? Is this guy really the one who killed Bi Jiagang?”
“There’s no mistake, I saw it too. It was terrifying. A battle between Hierarch Realm experts is far beyond us.”
A commotion broke out in the crowd. More and more people began pointing at Jiang Chen, but most of them were afraid of him, because he had killed Bi Jiagang. He had killed a Hierarch Realm expert, the future lord of Tianlai Boundary. That was something no one could have imagined.
At this moment, even Tao Qianjun had heard the rumors. Was this guy in front of him really the one who had killed Bi Jiagang, the son of the Lord of Tianlai Boundary?
“Did you kill Bi Jiagang?”
Tao Qianjun asked in a deep voice.
“A piece of trash. He deserved to die.”
Jiang Chen said indifferently.
“A piece of trash? You killed the son of a boundary lord for no reason. Aren’t you afraid that the Lord of Tianlai Boundary will come after you? Aren’t you afraid of being besieged and hunted down by an entire boundary?”
Tao Qianjun pressed him step by step, looking at Jiang Chen.
“If they come, I’ll kill them.”
Tao Qianjun’s eyes narrowed and he gave Jiang Chen a deep look. He wasn’t afraid of Jiang Chen, but the current situation wasn’t very optimistic for them. Someone who could kill Bi Jiagang was definitely no ordinary person. If he really won this contest, how would this end?
“Since you were capable of killing Bi Jiagang, it seems your strength is quite good. I’d like to see it for myself.”
Tianyin the Enlightened looked at Jiang Chen with a smile.
“Since you killed Bi Jiagang, you’re qualified to fight me.”
Kouxiang Gangmen said lightly.
At this time, Tao Qianjun fell silent. What he feared now was no longer Tianlai Boundary, but this guy causing trouble. Besides, the Lord of Tianlai Boundary probably already knew his son had been killed. Holding this guy here for the time being would be an expedient measure.
“Fine! I can give you the chance, but it depends on whether you can seize it.”
The corners of Tao Qianjun’s mouth suddenly curled up slightly as he looked at Jiang Chen. This guy always gave him a feeling of being hard to read. Being able to kill Bi Jiagang, he definitely had his own methods.
“Thank you for granting this, City Lord.”
Jiang Chen said, cupping his fists.
“Then let me test exactly how much you weigh.”
Zhang Liaoyuan stared at Jiang Chen with a half-smile.
“Then it’s up to you, Brother Zhang.”
Xu Jianshan smiled. He had originally wanted to make a move too, but Zhang Liaoyuan had beaten him to it. For them, a chance to steal the limelight like this was very exciting.
“The two of you can come together.”
Jiang Chen’s words once again caused an uproar among the hundreds of thousands of people. Many even gasped. This Jiang Chen was way too arrogant, wasn’t he? He was so reckless. Two Hierarch Realm experts attacking together? It was simply unimaginable.
This person’s strength was impressive. He had been able to kill Bi Jiagang, so his strength was beyond doubt. But being so arrogant, he was surely going to be taught a lesson.
