Hubris! Arrogance!

Jiang Chen had too much of arrogance. Over the years, there were many geniuses who came from Pure Land but he had never encountered as arrogant as this newbie. On the first day he came, the first thing he did was slap the genius of Gu Palace. This gave Gu Liuying and Gu Liuhui a great shock. They then thought of the information given by Gu Xuantian that this newbie was a rare genius that appeared once in every ten thousand years and was the greatest killing secret weapon of Gu Family. Now it seemed that either in the aspect of bravery or strength, this Gu Chen had it all.

“Very well, Gu Chen. I didn’t expect you to be so bold and wild. In which case, don’t blame me for being rude. No one in Saint Origin Palace dares to hit my face. Now I will let you know what is the true meaning of terror.”

Gu Ling was angered. His Qi began to rise steadily. The Qi of Second Grade Great Saint was completely unleashed. He was ready to strike to teach this newbie, who didn’t know the difference between life and death, a good lesson. He imagined that the slap that hit his face just now was merely an accident and because of his carelessness. How could he, a peak Second Grade Great Saint, be defeated by a puny First Grade Great Saint? This was simply unacceptable.

“Liufeng, advise Gu Chen not to stir things up.” Gu Liuying whispered to Gu Liufeng.

In fact, he was afraid that Jiang Chen would be at a disadvantage. Due to the constant oppression from the aboriginal geniuses of Gu Palace, those who came from Pure Land had become united. Thus, even though they were seeing Jiang Chen for the first time, they had treated Jiang Chen as one of them.

“Brother Liuying, there is no need to worry. He is no match for Little Chen. Although we are from Pure Land, we are the worthy geniuses of Gu Family and shouldn’t be oppressed. Something like this needs to be changed and Little Chen will do the job.”

Gu Liufeng smiled. He was very confident in the strength of Jiang Chen. Gu Ling couldn’t kill Jiang Chen even if there were more than a thousand of them. Although he hadn’t reached Gu Palace yet, he wasn’t a fool. He was able to almost guess the present situation in Gu Palace through Gu Ling’s way of treating them. They were supposed to be a single unit, but now he felt as if they were living under the roof of someone else. Without a doubt, this had stirred up unpleasant feelings in him.

He felt further infuriated seeing Gu Liuying and Gu Liuhui, the former heroic figures in Pure Land, had to lower their heads in front of Gu Ling.

Furthermore, Gu Liufeng knew Jiang Chen too well. It wouldn’t change his mind even if he tried to persuade him. All the blame should be put on Gu Ling who started the whole thing.

*Pa!*

The very moment Gu Ling’s Qi was unleashed, Jiang Chen’s palm landed on his face before he could even react, causing his head to spin.

*Pa Pa Pa…*

Subsequently, Jiang Chen’s palm shot from the left and right, slapping his face like a gusts of storm. Gu Ling was totally defenseless. Despite his will to fight back, he was unable to resist Jiang Chen’s attack. All he could do now was to expect mercy from Jiang Chen.

Gu Liuying and Gu Liuhui watched from behind,stupefied. They finally knew how strong Jiang Chen was. The first strike might be accidental but not for the second strike. The situation ahead was enough to explain that Jiang Chen’s strength was far more powerful than Gu Ling. It was very shocking to see Gu Ling, a Second Grade Great Saint, could not even resist an opponent with lower grade than him.

*Bang!*

Gu Ling was slapped to the ground by the final slap. His mouth was coughing up blood, a few of his teeth were knocked off. His face turned fierce.

*Pa!*

Jiang Chen raised his foot, and stepped on Gu Ling’s face. Gu Ling struggled intensely and roared, trying to break free from Jiang Chen’s foot but found that it was of no help. Before him, Jiang Chen was like a huge mountain that pressed against him.

“Gu Chen, you are…truly audacious!”

Gu Ling was infuriated beyond his limit. This was a great humiliation, a humiliation to his core. Gu Ling had always been a high and mighty genius that would never be trampled by anyone. This kind of psychological blow was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

“Now that you are under my foot, what else do you want to feel proud of? Don’t always think that you are the only noble one. Your so-called nobility is only a joke before me. Scram!”

With a tremor in his foot, Gu Ling was bounced a few hundred meters away.

Gu Ling stood up from the ground trembling. His eyes were bloodshot, glaring at Jiang Chen like a beast. The word ‘scram’ was like a knife that stabbed his heart. He was no doubt shocked by Jiang Chen’s strength, but he would never let this score slip away.

“Gu Chen, we shall wait and see.”
