Chapter 789 - 788: The Top Prodigy of Luoping City! Jiang Qingyao Can Be Saved?
Chapter 789: Chapter 788: The Top Prodigy of Luoping City! Jiang Qingyao Can Be Saved?
Xiao Feng clutched his chest, his face alternating between pale and livid. He stood rooted to the spot, caught in a dilemma.
Fight?
A moment ago, a single casual swipe from the Frost Bone Dragon’s claw had sent his Qi Blood roiling.
Even though they were both at the Integration Realm, he was no match for the Frost Bone Dragon.
Don’t fight?
Jiang Qingyao’s Divine Soul was still being held by Gu Yuexi.
If this dragged on and the Soul Guardian Bottle shattered, Jiang Qingyao would surely die. Not even an Immortal could save her.
Just then, a white figure sped over from the distance, moving at extreme speed.
"Gu Yuexi, let my sister go!"
The cold, clear voice, brimming with arrogance, echoed through the entire street.
’That voice is...’
Xiao Feng looked in the direction of the voice in astonishment, his eyes lighting up.
’It really is him!’
Jiang Xinglan!
The number one prodigy of the Jiang Family’s younger generation.
Integration Realm Peak Cultivation!
He crushed all opponents at the same level, unrivaled!
An existence all young Cultivators looked up to!
The City Lord once said that Jiang Xinglan was very likely to break through to the True God Realm before the age of three hundred.
He would become the youngest True God Realm expert in the history of Luoping City.
Moreover, for the next ten thousand years, he was the only peerless Immortal Seed in all of Luoping City with any hope of reaching for the Immortal Realm.
Throughout all of Luoping City, who didn’t know Jiang Xinglan’s great name?
"Jiang Xinglan, what are you doing here?"
As soon as Xiao Feng asked, he realized what a stupid question it was.
With Jiang Qingyao in such serious trouble, Jiang Wei must have already received the news.
He doted on Jiang Qingyao so much; there was no way he would sit by and do nothing.
However, as the Patriarch of the Jiang Family, he was swamped with countless matters.
Besides, for him to personally act against a junior at the Divinity Transformation Realm would be too damaging to his status.
Therefore, sending Jiang Xinglan was undoubtedly the best choice.
He was strong enough, and it wouldn’t cause the Jiang Family to lose face.
Xiao Feng quickly added, his tone somewhat urgent.
"Jiang Xinglan, you’re just in time!"
"That woman, Gu Yuexi, is a bit strange. She has a lot of tricks up her sleeve."
"And she has an Integration Realm Frost Bone Dragon as a mount. It’s not easy to deal with."
"Let’s team up and rescue Qingyao first."
But Jiang Xinglan merely gave Xiao Feng a faint glance, the corner of his mouth curling into an undisguised sneer.
"Xiao Feng, you just keep being the Law Enforcement Team Captain and manage your men."
"I can handle Qingyao’s matter myself. There’s no need to team up."
After speaking, he ignored Xiao Feng’s instantly ashen face.
He turned his head directly, his gaze falling upon the Soul Guardian Bottle in Gu Yuexi’s hand.
Before Jiang Xinglan could even speak, Jiang Qingyao cried out excitedly from within the Soul Guardian Bottle.
"Brother! Brother, you’re finally here! Save me!"
"This bitch slapped my face, destroyed my physical body, and stomped me into the mud!"
"Brother, don’t just kill her directly! That would be letting her off too easy!"
"Give her to me! I’ll torture her slowly until she’s begging for both life and death, but receiving neither!"
Jiang Xinglan nodded slightly in the direction of the Soul Guardian Bottle, his tone softening a little.
"Don’t worry. With me here, nothing will happen to you."
"Whoever bullied you, I’ll pay them back tenfold."
With that, he looked at Gu Yuexi again.
His voice instantly became bone-chillingly cold, filled with condescending arrogance.
"Gu Yuexi, I will repeat myself one more time."
"Let my sister go, and I will leave you with an intact corpse and grant you a quick death."
"Otherwise..."
"I will make you personally experience what it means to wish for death but be unable to die."
Hearing their conversation, the crowd of onlookers also recognized Jiang Xinglan’s identity.
The crowd, which had just quieted down, instantly erupted.
"Holy shit, Jiang Xinglan actually came!"
"No shit. His own sister is in such big trouble, of course her older brother would come."
"Gu Yuexi is in real danger now. She’s kicked an iron plate."
"Yeah, Gu Yuexi herself is only at the Divinity Transformation Realm, and her Frost Bone Dragon is only at the Integration Realm Early Stage."
"And that Beast Pet Mosquito..."
"Hey~ are you sure that’s a Beast Pet and not just a pet? It doesn’t look any different from a normal mosquito."
"Uhh... forget I said anything."
"Even if she has the Frost Bone Dragon as a mount."
"A Divinity Transformation Realm and an Integration Realm Early Stage, even combined, are no match for Jiang Xinglan."
"Jiang Xinglan is at the Integration Realm Peak, just one step away from the True God Realm."
"He’s also the strongest of the younger generation, a chosen one of heaven who is the most likely to advance to the Immortal Realm in the future."
"In the Jiang Family, he’s the strongest expert besides the Patriarch."
"I heard he’s even defeated the Jiang Family’s Integration Realm Elders, but it’s never been mentioned publicly to protect the Elders’ pride."
"Patriarch Jiang really dotes on Jiang Qingyao! To even send out his trump card, Jiang Xinglan... he must be truly furious."
The men were all discussing Jiang Xinglan’s strength.
Their faces were filled with awe, all believing that Gu Yuexi was doomed this time.
Meanwhile, the young women nearby were starry-eyed and infatuated, unable to tear their gazes away from Jiang Xinglan’s back.
"So strong! So handsome! So cool!"
"Is that the legendary Brother Xinglan? He’s even more handsome than the rumors say!"
"Brother Xinglan! I’m your biggest fan! Can you give me an autograph? I’ve been in love with you for 153 years!"
"Get lost! That’s *my* brother! Who do you think you are?"
"What do you mean, *your* brother? When I first met Brother Xinglan, you hadn’t even been born yet!"
"Whoever tries to steal Brother Xinglan from me, I’ll kill them!"
A group of Female Cultivators started fighting amongst themselves right on the spot over Jiang Xinglan.
They pushed and shoved, creating a chaotic mess, more excited than the people watching the actual fight.
The male Cultivators nearby all backed away, their faces filled with disdain.
"A bunch of idiots."
Fortunately, the Law Enforcement Team was on the scene.
A dozen or so team members expended a great deal of effort, pulling and dragging, until they finally managed to separate the group of hormone-crazed, obsessive fans.
All eyes returned to the center of the confrontation.
Facing Jiang Xinglan’s murderous threat, Gu Yuexi didn’t even raise her head.
She merely glanced up at Chu Sheng, who was flying down from the Bone Dragon’s head, and calmly said two words.
"You’re back."
After speaking, she lowered her head again and continued to study the Soul Guardian Bottle in her hand.
Divine Power slowly surged from her fingertips, destroying the Law Patterns on the bottle’s surface.
She had almost completely figured out the Law Patterns of the entire Soul Guardian Bottle.
In just a few more minutes, she would be able to completely destroy the Soul Guardian Bottle along with Jiang Qingyao’s Divine Soul, leaving not even dust behind.
Jiang Xinglan, who had been holding his "prodigy" pose with his head tilted up at a forty-five-degree angle to the sky, heard no pleas for mercy from Gu Yuexi.
He heard no harsh retorts.
He didn’t even hear a single idle word from her.
It wasn’t until he heard Jiang Qingyao’s tortured screams from within the Soul Guardian Bottle that Jiang Xinglan realized he was being ignored by Gu Yuexi.
Completely and utterly ignored!
’Wait.
I’m Jiang Xinglan!
I’m Jiang Xinglan!
I’m Jiang Xinglan!
Don’t you know what those two words mean in Luoping City?!
The number one prodigy of Luoping City’s younger generation!
Before long, I’ll be able to break through to the True God Realm and become the youngest True God Realm expert in the history of Luoping City.
And for the next ten thousand years, I am the only peerless Immortal Seed in all of Luoping City with any hope of breaking through to the Immortal Realm!
You have to understand, Luoping City hasn’t seen an Immortal Realm expert in hundreds of thousands of years!
With my current strength and potential, throughout all of Luoping City, whether it’s the Clan Leaders of the Eight Great Clans or even the most powerful City Lord of Luoping City... which one of them doesn’t greet me with a smile and call me ’Virtuous Nephew’?
They even have to brew the best tea for me!’
