Dragon-Marked War God

“The Jade Marrow Soul Seed is my clan-guarding treasure, and you want it too? You really are tired of living. I really don’t know whether you’re truly stupid or just pretending. Coming deep into enemy territory alone and fighting with your back to the wall, you must have come here prepared to die.”

Kouxiang Daqu said with a cold laugh, full of contempt for Jiang Chen.

“You two, father and son, are real oddities. One has a mouth like an anus and the other has a mouth like a big maggot. What am I supposed to say about you?”

Jiang Chen smiled. This bizarre father and son struck him as extremely funny.

Wu Ningzhu and Yan Qingcheng looked at each other and both covered their mouths, giggling.

“Laugh my ass! Today I’ll send you to the Western Heaven, and I’ll take both women for myself. Let’s see if you can still laugh then.”

Kouxiang Daqu shouted angrily, pointed his blade at Jiang Chen, and charged up.

“Heaven-Eye Divine Eagle, fight with me.”

Along with Kouxiang Daqu’s furious shout, the Heaven-Eye Divine Eagle let out a cry and soared up to join Kouxiang Daqu. Standing on the Heaven-Eye Divine Eagle, Kouxiang Daqu was obviously far stronger than Kouxiang Gangmen. His strength had reached the Late Hierarch Realm. With such strength, in his view, killing Jiang Chen instantly would be all too easy. And in order to give those watching from the shadows an absolute visual shock, Kouxiang Daqu decided to kill Jiang Chen with his strongest move to establish his heavenly might. He wanted those who were dissatisfied with his son Kouxiang Gangmen to abandon any thoughts of rebellion, and to make them understand who the true overlord of the Immortal Island of Penglai was. By coming out of seclusion at this moment, Kouxiang Daqu had prepared considerably, all to let people know that the master of the Immortal Island of Penglai had never left, not for a moment.

It was also to establish Kouxiang Gangmen’s authority. Since Kouxiang Gangmen had taken over, there had been considerable unrest throughout Penglai Boundary. After all, his strength was not yet enough to win over the masses, and Kouxiang Daqu was his strongest backing. It was just that Kouxiang Daqu hadn’t appeared for so long that many people had forgotten his peerless grace of the past.

Today, in order to kill Jiang Chen and revive the glory of Penglai Boundary, Kouxiang Daqu had to defeat the enemy with one blow, and shock everyone watching in secret.

“Today is the day you die.”

“Whose death day it is remains to be seen.”

Jiang Chen said indifferently. This father and son really were a pair of fools. If he didn’t suppress them, it seemed it would be impossible to get the Jade Marrow Soul Seed. He had originally expected that he might have to pay some price, but he never expected to fight directly in Penglai Boundary. Jiang Chen was greatly disappointed. He would rather pay some price. After all, the Jade Marrow Soul Seed was no ordinary thing. If he simply seized it, how would he be any different from a robber? At least in Jiang Chen’s heart, there was an enduring sense of righteousness. He disdained taking things by killing and plunder, but unfortunately, others had forced him onto this path.

“Phantom Blade Intent!”

Kouxiang Daqu let out a furious shout and shot up into the sky. His great blade swung wide and crushed down on Jiang Chen. Blade shadows danced across the sky, hanging upside down from the starry heavens.

The phantoms doubled, and the blade light was like frost, shaking the heavens and putting people to shame. Every Hierarch Realm expert was awed by it, not to mention those experts below the Divine King Realm. Watching in secret, they were already astounded.

“The Boundary Lord’s strength has made a qualitative leap again. Such progress in less than ten thousand years can’t be called anything but fast.”

“Yeah, although the Boundary Lord hasn’t reached the peak of the Hierarch Realm, such strength is enough to sweep through Moluo County. Very few people can fight the Boundary Lord to a draw. This Mid Hierarch Realm guy is just seeking death.”

Someone watching the battle in secret said with a cold laugh, the corners of his mouth full of disdain.

“The Boundary Lord’s might is fearsome. It seems we have to improve our strength quickly. Otherwise, the gap between us and the Boundary Lord will only grow bigger and bigger.”

“Sigh, isn’t that the truth? This blade can be called invincible. It’s several times stronger than when he fought Old Ancestor Spirit Snake more than eight thousand years ago.”

Everyone from Penglai Boundary seemed to be very wary of Kouxiang Daqu. The Hierarch Realm experts all changed color. The phantom blade light sent shockwaves soaring to the sky, and wherever the blade light reached, it destroyed the void itself.

Jiang Chen threw a punch that shattered mountains and rivers. Threads of lightning flickered in Jiang Chen’s hand. His fist wind was powerful and fierce, strong enough to split mountains. Carrying endless domineering power, it collided head-on with Kouxiang Daqu’s blade light.

In an instant, the two terrifying forces disappeared and dispersed rapidly, like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. Sharp, lingering forces filled the void everywhere, and both of them fell back. Jiang Chen’s punch, which could shake three mountains, directly blocked Kouxiang Daqu’s powerful strike, into which he had poured eighty percent of his strength, yet it hadn’t defeated Jiang Chen instantly. For Kouxiang Daqu, this was a great insult. And the move he had placed such high hopes on had been easily dissolved by Jiang Chen, as if a mere four ounces had deflected a thousand pounds. How could that not shock people?

Kouxiang Daqu’s face was gloomy and his teeth were clenched. Jiang Chen’s methods were unfathomable. That his first move had ended like this made everyone watching wary. This Mid Hierarch Realm guy actually seemed to be quite strong. Being able to block a blow from the Boundary Lord meant he truly was powerful.

Kouxiang Daqu had originally wanted to kill Jiang Chen to establish his authority, but now it had become an even match. He burned with rage, but he had to face Jiang Chen seriously. This guy he had underestimated wasn’t as weak as he had imagined.

“This guy… even my father can’t kill him with one blow?”

The waves in Kouxiang Gangmen’s heart grew enormous. He had originally thought that as soon as his father struck, he would definitely be able to kill Jiang Chen easily. But now it seemed somewhat incredible. Then again, perhaps his father simply hadn’t fully unleashed his strength.

“Father, be careful. This guy killed Bi Chao, the Lord of Tianlai Boundary. His strength shouldn’t be underestimated.”

Kouxiang Gangmen said in a deep voice.

A single stone stirred up a thousand waves. Not only Kouxiang Daqu, but even those watching this battle were shocked. The Lord of Tianlai Boundary? How was that possible? Was he really killed by this guy?

The most shocked of all was Kouxiang Daqu. More than a hundred thousand years ago, when he was still at the Mid Hierarch Realm, he had once fought Bi Chao, the Lord of Tianlai Boundary. Back then, the two of them had been heroes who respected each other, and their strength had been almost equal. Kouxiang Daqu thought very highly of him.

But after he broke through, he naturally could no longer be mentioned in the same breath as Bi Chao. Still, for someone at the Mid Hierarch Realm, killing Bi Chao would be extremely difficult. Most importantly, he was the lord of a boundary. If it were an ordinary Mid Hierarch Realm expert, Kouxiang Daqu might not have been so shocked, but how could the lord of a boundary not have a few life-saving tricks? Otherwise, how could he have become the lord of a boundary? Yet he had died in Jiang Chen’s hands, and that shocked Kouxiang Daqu greatly.

“Bi Chao and I were old acquaintances. Killing you today will also serve as a memorial to my old friend. The fact that you could kill Bi Chao shows that you’re not weak. From this moment on, I will give you enough respect.”

Kouxiang Daqu said lightly. He was finally going to get serious. The Lord of Penglai Boundary did not have an undeserved reputation!
