Chapter 3223 – Jiang Chen, Arrogant to the Extreme
“Good, good, good, this is great. Someone actually doesn’t take even the Lord Divine Envoy seriously. A person like this should be torn apart by five horses and have his soul refined so that he can never be reborn.”
Guan Muran said through gritted teeth. At this time, he could not let such a chance slip by. Otherwise, when would he ever be able to avenge his junior brothers?
Kicking someone when they were down was all too easy for Guan Muran. No one was better suited to it than him.
“Good kid, you don’t even take the Futu Pagoda seriously. That really makes me see you in a new light. I have to say, you’re the first! So I have to play with you properly.”
The Divine Envoy sneered, light blazing in his eyes. A terrifying momentum came crushing down and completely enveloped Jiang Chen.
Wu Zhentian slapped his thigh hard. Jiang Chen, oh Jiang Chen, you’re just too impulsive. At a time like this, you could very well drag others down with you, my Fossil Sect included. Do you know who you’ve offended? Even if you have a few powerful friends, can they protect you for the rest of your life? His arrogance was so ingrained that it was simply unimaginable. At this time, their situation had fallen into crisis once again. He had directly put everyone in a dangerous position.
Tantai Jingzang, on the other hand, looked at Jiang Chen with great interest. She wanted to see how he was going to get out of this. The person he had offended was a Lord Divine Envoy of the Futu Pagoda. Did he think a few words could settle it?
“It seems you’re heading toward the mountain even though you know there’s a tiger on it.”
The smile at the corner of Tantai Jingzang’s mouth was full of meaning, even somewhat amused. Even if Jiang Chen died, he would have brought it on himself. Of course, she did not want to see that happen. She just wanted to see Jiang Chen get the slap in the face he deserved for his arrogance.
“Holy man, please tell me what we should do now.”
Wu Zhentian was completely at a loss. Now that the Divine Envoy was angry, the one who had drawn his wrath was Jiang Chen. Even if he wanted to protect Jiang Chen, his strength was not equal to his wishes. He could only turn to the Monk Tyrant for help. But the Monk Tyrant and the others paid no attention at all. It seemed that whatever Jiang Chen did, they would support it with both hands. Even if it was wrong, they would back him.
“This isn’t a big deal. What’s there to make such a fuss about?”
The Monk Tyrant shrugged and said. He was not afraid of the so-called Divine Envoy of the Futu Pagoda at all. He was only one person, so how big a wave could he stir up? At worst, they would just kill him. The Monk Tyrant did not know anything about any Futu Pagoda, and even if he did, with Jiang Chen here, what was there to be afraid of? When soldiers came, generals would block them; when water came, earth would dam it. He and Little Chen were not cowards. Even in the Western-pole Divine Land, no one had been able to catch them, let alone here in the Desolate Divine Land, which was a deserted wilderness. Even if it was a Divine Envoy of the Futu Pagoda, what was there to worry about?
“This…”
Wu Zhentian did not know whether to laugh or cry. Hearing the Monk Tyrant’s words, it was clear they did not care about anything at all. If you offend the Futu Pagoda, you won’t have good days ahead. Now that the Divine Envoy of the Futu Pagoda was angry, the outcome might very well be beyond their imagination.
“Sigh, what are we going to do?”
Wu Zhentian gritted his teeth and smiled bitterly, but he had no solution. Offending a Divine Envoy of the Futu Pagoda would have consequences they simply could not bear. Jiang Chen and the others looked like dead pigs that were not afraid of boiling water, but they had the entire Fossil Sect behind them and had to think carefully.
Risking the entire sect for the sake of a meteorite was simply not worth it.
“Arrogant to the extreme, daring to ignore the Futu Pagoda. Today I’ll make an example of you and offer you as a sacrifice to heaven to uphold the name of my Futu Pagoda! Fossil Sect, if any of you dare to stand in the way, you’ll be treated as offending the Futu Pagoda and killed without mercy.”
The Divine Envoy said angrily, his gaze locked on Jiang Chen. This guy simply did not know how high the sky was or how thick the earth was. Killing him would be the perfect way to establish his authority. What ability could a Late Hierarch guy have?
Wu Zhentian was caught in a dilemma. But to ask them to stand by and do nothing in the face of Jiang Chen’s death was truly too inhumane. After all, Jiang Chen had saved them before.
“You’d better not get involved. Otherwise, if the Fossil Sect offends the Futu Pagoda, I’m afraid you’ll find it hard to take a single step in the Central Region Divine Land. I can’t bear that responsibility.”
Jiang Chen said with a smile. These words were not sarcasm. It was just that he had no ties holding him back, while they were full of hesitation. They had the Fossil Sect as their backing, but it was also a burden to them at the same time. They worried about everything and did not dare to fight freely at all. If he dragged them in at this time, it would definitely be a great torment for them.
“Why put yourself through this?”
Wu Zhentian’s heart was filled with sorrow. Jiang Chen was simply asking for trouble.
“Such a good guy, it’s just that he loves to show off too much. Why take them so seriously? It’s really too sad. Little brother, I suppose you could say you died from showing off.”
Sun Xiaolong felt quite sorry for Jiang Chen. Such a good listener for his bragging was about to end his own life. How could he not sigh with regret?
“I want the meteorite, and they’re standing in my way, so all I can do is kill them. That way, no one will be able to snatch what’s mine.”
Jiang Chen said calmly.
“Trash in strength, but not small in ambition. Do you think this meteorite is something you can lay your hands on? Humph.”
The Divine Envoy sneered and walked toward Jiang Chen step by step, killing intent overflowing.
“All I know is that you aren’t qualified to lay your hands on it.”
Jiang Chen said calmly, completely unafraid of the Divine Envoy of the Futu Pagoda.
“Full of yourself. You’re not qualified at all.”
Guan Muran said disdainfully.
“Trash with strength like this, I could cut him down with one palm. Why should the Lord Divine Envoy need to make a move?”
“Trash? Haha, I think the trash is you lot. Whoever dares to touch a single hair on Jiang Chen, I’ll take your dog lives.”
The Monk Tyrant charged forward and completely blocked the Divine Envoy’s path. The two of them stared at each other. The Monk Tyrant had no interest whatsoever in this so-called Divine Envoy.
“You want to go against me too? Are you qualified?”
The Divine Envoy looked coldly at the Monk Tyrant.
“Noisy guy. There’s no point talking. Just go and die.”
The Monk Tyrant ignored whatever the Divine Envoy said and attacked madly, not taking the Divine Envoy seriously at all. His charge was incredibly ferocious. He had just cut down three great Half-step Divine Emperors in a row, and his momentum was like a rainbow. Now even this Divine Envoy of the Futu Pagoda was no match for the Monk Tyrant at all. If it were not for the Futu Pagoda’s status, he would have already made a move and taken care of this guy long ago.
Jiang Chen had not said anything before, so the Monk Tyrant had not acted rashly either. Now that Jiang Chen had spoken, he naturally would not keep indulging this so-called damn Divine Envoy any longer. In front of him, this damn Divine Envoy was worse than trash.
