Chapter 3252 – Unable to Withstand a Second Sword
“It looks like this guy won’t shed a tear until he sees the coffin. Now even the Gate Master of the White Tiger Gate has made a move. He’s sure to die.”
“Hahaha, the person the Wang Family invited is a bit too arrogant. He’s offended the Fossil Sect and the White Tiger Gate. How can he have any good days ahead? And this isn’t just a Hundred Sects Conference. From now on, how will the Wang Family hold its ground in all of Zhelong County? What a failure. Did the people of the Wang Family all get their heads squeezed in a door?”
“The way it looks now, with the Gate Master of the White Tiger Gate making a move, it should be as easy as reaching out a hand.”
At this moment, Jiang Chen was the one nobody believed in. Even Wang Fengqi was holding his breath and watching intently. Could his master’s strength really stand up to the Half-step Divine Emperor Gate Master of the White Tiger Gate? In his memory, the Gate Master of the White Tiger Gate was the strongest existence in all of Zhelong County. Apart from him, there were the Jun Twin Heroes of the Jun Family, but the Jun Twin Heroes had clearly not shown up.
To Wang Fengqi, the Half-step Divine Emperor Realm was an existence beyond reach, a kind of invincible loneliness. His master’s strength probably had not reached the Half-step Divine Emperor yet. In this battle, his master was probably more likely to lose than to win, and he might very well lose his life.
Wang Fengqi took a deep breath. He knew his master could not swallow this insult, but now the arrow was already on the string and had to be shot. This battle would probably plunge his master into a place he could never come back from. His own death would be no great loss, but if his master ended up trapped because of him, his heart would be full of shame.
Everyone was watching the scene. Jiang Chen stood his ground, not moving in the slightest. Bai Wenliang’s momentum was ferocious, more than ten times stronger than Zhang Tingxiu’s furious charge before. This terrifying impact shook everyone deeply, and they sighed inwardly. A Half-step Divine Emperor expert really was extraordinary. In this battle, Jiang Chen was sure to die!
It hung by a thread, the danger was right before their eyes. Between life and death, a single thought was eternal!
Wang Fengqi clenched his teeth and rushed toward Jiang Chen. He wanted to stand in front of his master and take this blow for him. This whole thing had started because of him. He absolutely could not let his master become the scapegoat. Even if he died, he would go first, and that would be his final bow to his master!
“Brother Qi!”
Feng Yan cried out in alarm. No one had expected Wang Fengqi to stand in front of Jiang Chen, and no one had even seen him move. Bai Wenliang had not expected that this brat Wang Fengqi, not knowing whether he lived or died, would dare to block his way. Then he would kill him first. Either way, both of them had to die.
Jiang Chen frowned, but a trace of emotion flowed through his heart. This guy really did have quite a sense of loyalty, wanting to block Bai Wenliang’s earth-shaking blow for him at a time like this. If he took this blow, Wang Fengqi would surely die.
But with Jiang Chen’s current strength, how could he let Bai Wenliang succeed?
“Five Elements Divine Dragon Seal!”
Jiang Chen’s expression shifted, and a terrifying hand seal shot straight out. Bai Wenliang’s face changed, and he fell back, forcibly driven away.
The divine dragon roared, deafening, and at that moment it became a terrifying sight. Even Bai Wenliang had been forced back by Jiang Chen. Although it was impossible to tell who would win yet, this move had saved Wang Fengqi and spared him a vicious death. Otherwise, he would surely have died.
A moment later, the dragon shadow dispersed. Wang Fengqi stared at the scene in disbelief. His master had actually blocked the earth-shaking blow of the Gate Master of the White Tiger Gate. How was that possible?
“Ma… Master… I’m sorry, I…”
Wang Fengqi stammered, his face extremely ugly. He did not know what to say.
“Do you have so little faith in your own master? If your master needed you to save him, wouldn’t people laugh their teeth out? Get out of the way, go stand aside and watch closely. I’ll only perform it once. The First Sword, the starting sword of the Limitless Sword. If you still can’t comprehend it this time, I’ll have nothing more to say.”
Jiang Chen said coldly. He had to admit that Wang Fengqi’s action had moved him a little. Jiang Chen was not someone who was easily moved, but this foolish guy really had shown him that true feelings still existed in the world, and that not everyone was cold-blooded and heartless.
“He’ll only perform it once? Can that blockhead learn it? Hahaha, that’s ridiculous. Senior Bai, you must make this brat pay the price he deserves. He dared to run wild at the White Tiger Gate and ignore the Fossil Sect. He deserves to die without a burial place.”
Jun Luohua said in a deep voice, looking at Jiang Chen with gloomy eyes. He might be no match for Jiang Chen, but if the Gate Master of the White Tiger Gate wanted to kill him, it would not take much effort.
Jiang Chen glanced at Jun Luohua and could not even be bothered to stoop to his level. He would only perform it once because the Gate Master of the White Tiger Gate could only take one sword from him. The First Sword was the starting sword of Jiang Chen’s Limitless Sword. It was the sword in which the Great Dao returns to its origin and the complex is turned into the simple. Although this sword looked simple, it contained all things. It was not as powerful as the Tenth Sword or the Fifteenth Sword, but it held boundless sword intent within it.
“You actually blocked one of my attacks. It seems I really underestimated you. This time, I won’t give you any more chances.”
Bai Wenliang took a step forward, swallowing ten thousand miles like a tiger. This time he was going to set an example for the White Tiger Gate. He was going to make Zhelong County submit. Bai Wenliang’s strength was the greatest in Zhelong County!
“You don’t have much time left.”
Jiang Chen said calmly. Bai Wenliang roared and charged in, gripping a nine-foot silver-ringed saber. The saber’s light flashed, dazzling and boundless, and his momentum was ferocious, like a dragon, like a tiger. The great saber swept back and forth. As Bai Wenliang charged, it came down from the sky with enough force to split mountains and rivers, unstoppable!
Jiang Chen moved his hand, and a branch from a distant tree flew across the air into his fingers. Jiang Chen moved with the wind. His sword rose and stirred up startling waves, a moment of splendor. In an instant, the Limitless Sword swept out in the form of a tree branch. The sword qi moved and the long saber broke. The saber’s shadows vanished, and the sword qi was matchless. It cut all of Bai Wenliang’s saber shadows to pieces at once. And this sword came down as if from heaven. Before the dumbfounded eyes of Wang Fengqi, it slashed across. The saber split, the man fell, his heart scattered. Countless people all around were shocked by this earth-shaking sword intent.
Bai Wenliang’s aura withered, his face was deathly pale, and both his hands kept trembling. A Half-step Divine Emperor had actually been defeated by a single sword from Jiang Chen. And his own life-bound divine weapon had been destroyed by a tree branch. What an enormous mockery that was!
Everyone present held their breath. No one dared to say another word. Everyone was utterly shaken. Was a Half-step Divine Emperor expert really this vulnerable? The answer was certainly no. Then the only reason that could explain all of this was that Jiang Chen was just too, too strong, beyond compare!
Bai Wenliang would never have dreamed that he could not last even one exchange with Jiang Chen. Just like Zhang Tingxiu, he had had almost no strength to fight back.
Now he finally understood why Jiang Chen had said he would only perform it once for Wang Fengqi. It was because he could not withstand Jiang Chen’s second sword at all. That was confidence, and even more, an incomparable domineering might.
