Chapter 945 – The Arrogant Newbie (2/2)

Each line of word clearly lacked courtesy and politeness. Jiang Chen always used the simplest way to deal with someone like him, crushing their sense of superiority, letting them fall heavily from the top and let them know that there was nothing that they should be proud of.

“Gu Chen!”

Gu Liuying and the other youth’s facial expression changed drastically. They were also informed of the background of Gu Chen. When Gu Xuantian sent the information to them, all the boasting that he had put on Gu Chen almost made him as great as an immortals, having totally suppressed the first genius of Gu Family, Gu Liufeng, but they didn’t expect Gu Chen to be so audacious that he would argue with Gu Ling.

However, they reasoned that it must be because Gu Chen and Gu Liufeng lacked the knowledge of Gu Palace’s situation and rules, and had brought along the usual habits they had in the Pure Land. The people of the Pure Land wouldn’t gain any privileged status in Gu Palace, and offending Gu Ling wouldn’t bring anything good.

In fact, the two of them really wanted to punch this Gu Ling on the face. Everyone who came from the Pure Land had been nursing their grievances against him. So, they had to stop Gu Chen as he was merely a First Grade Great Saint. He would never be an opponent of Gu Ling if the argument escalated into a fight.

“You bastard! What did you just say?”

Gu Ling raged.

“You can’t even understand what I said? Not only do you despise your ancestors, you seem to even have obstacles in your intelligence. A mentally disabled person dares to look down on others.”

Jiang Chen obviously didn’t show any quarters.

After hearing this, the two youths stumbled under their feet and almost fainted. Why hadn’t they known that Gu Chen had such a hot temper? Now, they couldn’t stop him even if they wanted to. They knew Gu Ling too well. He must be feeling very angry right now and would never let Gu Chen go.

“Good, good. Very good. Of the so many people who came from the Pure Land, I have never seen someone as arrogant as you. You have disrespected me with your words and you are, without a doubt, courting death. I will let you know the consequences of offending me.”

Gu Ling’s anger had gone out of control. Yuan Qi started to ripple on his palm. It was the fluctuation of a violent energy. He was completely infuriated. No one had ever spoken to him in such a way before. Today, he must teach this arrogant guy a lesson, to let him know that he has no authority to meddle in any matters in Gu Palace.

Gu Ling raised his arm with lightning speed and slapped Jiang Chen.

*Pa!*

Crips sound of a slap was produced, but Jiang Chen was standing there, without moving an inch whereas Gu Ling staggered one step backwards and almost fell down. He froze and felt a burning sensation on his face.

Gu Liuying and Gu Liuhui were both petrified. Their eyes were fixed on the obvious palm mark on Gu Ling’s face and they dared not say a word. Despite the distance between them, they couldn’t see Jiang Chen’s slap. It was too fast.

The shock they felt was earth-shaking. One should know that Gu Ling was a peak Second Grade Great Saint and was only a step more to advance to Third Grade Great Saint. Gu Chen on the other hand was merely a First Grade Great Saint, he may be a peak First Grade Great Saint but how could he be this powerful?

They must be imagining things. That must be it.

At one side, Gu Liufeng smiled coldly. Others might not be able to comprehend Jiang Chen’s strength but not him. He believed that if Gu Ling was Jiang Chen’s enemy, Gu Ling would already be a dead man by now and wouldn’t just receive a simple slap.

“Y-you dare to hit me?”

Gu Ling regained his senses from the shock. He couldn’t believe that he was slapped by a First Grade Great Saint, and accept that a newbie who just came from the Pure Land dared to hit him.

“You should feel lucky that you are just getting a smack from me and you still got the chance to speak after offending me.”

Jiang Chen said coldly. He was just stating the cold hard fact. It was just like what had Gu Liufeng thought, if Gu Ling was Jiang Chen’s enemy, he would be dead by now.
