Chapter 1063 – Yan Qingcheng (1/2)
Yan Qingcheng
10/14 chapter!
“Haha……100,000 low grade Immortal Meta Stones? You have the maw of a lion, brat. I think you are obsessed with those stones for claiming that your lowly carriage of herbs is worth that much. Humph! You surely is an ignorant brat! I really have no idea where you got those guts from, daring to act outrageously in front of the Prefecture. Take him down. I’d like to see whether he still dares to resist.”
Steward Wu burst into laughter, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. Had that lowly villager gone out of his mind for wanting 100,000 low grade Immortal Meta Stones? He must have thought that low grade Immortal Meta Stones could easily be picked on the street.
Jiang Chen’s words had completely angered Steward Wu, who immediately ordered to take him down.
*Hua La…*
The experts led by Steward Wu moved. Their speed was swift and sharp as they besiege Jiang Chen in a matter of seconds.
“You think you can deal with me with these rotten potato and spoiled eggs? Get lost!”
Jiang Chen totally didn’t put these people in his eyes. All of a sudden, his Qi fluctuated; an invisible energy surged out of his body like tidal waves and lunged in all directions indiscriminately.
*Bang…* *Bang…* *Bang…*
“Argh…” “Argh…” “Argh…”
All the experts who rushed forward were pushed flying away by Jiang Chen’s force, landing on the ground 40 meters away and wailed agonizingly. This scene shocked both Steward Wu and Huang Liu. They knew that there were two half-step Earth Immortal experts among them, but none of them were able to get close to Jiang Chen. It was absolutely not an accident, nor incompetence from their experts. The only explanation for this was that Jiang Chen was just too strong.
Steward Wu couldn’t help but begin to carefully examine Jiang Chen. With his eyesight, he was able to discern Jiang Chen’s cultivation just from his attack, but because of that, he was shocked even more.
“It’s unbelievable that a young late Human Immortal expert can defeat a half-step Earth Immortal expert so easily.” Steward Wu said in a low tone.
His face was filled with disbelief. As the steward of the Prefecture, he had great knowledge and experience, however, it was rare for him to encounter such a genius like Jiang Chen.
Nevertheless, that didn’t give him a reason not to punish this young man, this matter involved the dignity of the Prefecture. If the Prefecture of Yan City couldn’t even handle a puny late Human Immortal, he would certainly be fired by his superior for being so incompetent.
Jiang Chen stood there with his hands behind his back. His face was indifferent, totally not showing any interest of conversing with Steward Wu. Today, there was only one great thing that he wanted to do, which was to seek justice for Han Village and bring them more benefits. This would also help him lay a foundation in this new world.
Therefore, someone who was powerful and had high position in the Prefecture must come out and face him. As for this Steward Wu, he obviously wasn’t the powerful superior he expected.
“Cousin, this brat doesn’t seem like a weak opponent. Should we inform Big Miss?” Huang Liu whispered.
“Humph! Informing Big Miss just because of this puny late Human Immortal young man? Where should I put my face after that?”
Steward Hu let out a cold humph. Although Jiang Chen had a very mystical performance, he wasn’t a true Earth Immortal expert like him. He had great confidence in eliminating this young man.
“You don’t have to attack because you are no match for me at all.”
Jiang Chen pointed to Steward Wu and shook his head. Even if Steward Wu was a mid Earth Immortal expert, he was still not an opponent for Jiang Chen.
“What an overly arrogant brat! Since you want to die so badly, I will fulfil your wish now. After you, all these Han villagers will have to die as well.”
Steward Wu raged. With his identity and reputation, no one had ever talked to him like that, especially an outsider.
A powerful wave suddenly rushed out of Steward Wu’s body. With a swift speed, he appeared before Jiang Chen in a blink, locking on Jiang Chen with his divine sense, wrapping him with the wind. Then, he struck out a few palm strikes, creating a dozen of clear palm seals that charged at Jiang Chen. This was an attack of a true Earth Immortal expert which shouldn’t be underestimated.
The villagers tensed, knowing that Han Village was tied together with Jiang Chen’s fate. If Jiang Chen died, their village wouldn’t be any better. So, they hoped that Jiang Chen was powerful enough to defeat Steward Wu even if his chances was very low. It was because Steward Wu was a true Earth Immortal expert and was incomparable to a half-step Earth Immortal like Hang Changling.
Jiang Chen’s move was very simple while facing those dense palm attacks. He just gently raised his palm and smashed forward, producing a cracking sound. Then, all the palm seals of Steward Wu shattered before making an impact on Jiang Chen.
*Pa!*
Jiang Chen’s speed was too fast. After pulverizing all the palm seals, he made a swift slap on Steward Wu’s face, creating a clear slapping sound. But what felt wasn’t just a slap, it was like a force of a mountain was pressing against his face, causing him to suffocate. Under such an overwhelming force, he had lost the power to resist.
Steward Wu let out a wail like the other guards, and was kicked flying by Jiang Chen. Although he was an early Earth Immortal expert, he still faced the same outcome like those Human Immortal guards. In order words, early Human Immortal and early Earth Immortals didn’t matter to Jiang Chen at all.
“What?”
