*Pa!*

The collision of brute force produced firebolts and sparks. The moment Gao Yang’s fist collided with Jiang Chen’s, his facial expression changed completely. The result was far beyond his imagination. The strength of this half-step Heaven Immortal was somewhat unacceptable to him.

He only felt a thunderous force that was sharp and vast coming towards him. A force he couldn’t resist. Despite the fact that he had exerted almost all of his strength, there was still an obvious gap between his and Jiang Chen’s.

*Ka Cha!*

A bone-cracking sound was heard and Gao Yang was sent staggering backwards. Immediately, his two comrades helped him stabilize his body. One of his arm was dangling. His forehead was beaded with sweat. He could clearly feel that his other arm was dislocated. It was a serious injury. He could also feel an acute pain in his palm, making him numb.

“How?”

Gao Yang couldn’t believe the result. It was unacceptable that his physique that he was most proud of was so vulnerable in front of Jiang Chen.

“Senior Brother Gao, this guys is too abnormal. We’re no match for him.”

The disciple who hadn’t attacked yet changed his facial expression entirely. His face had lost all the arrogance that he had before. Qu Yuan had told them to come and teach Jiang Chen a lesson, but Jiang Chen’s scariness had far exceeded their expectations. The shock was unimaginable when one found out that there was such a powerful half-step Heaven Immortal expert. Only those who experienced it knew how scary that was.

“Jiang Chen, we won’t forget today’s matter. Let’s go.”

After knowing that he wasn’t an opponent of Jiang Chen, he turned and left after leaving a cruel remark. If they continued to get entangled with Jiang Chen, they would only be the one to suffer defeat and loss. Although they hadn’t gotten the chance to teach Jiang Chen a lesson today, they had at least found out his true strength and their injuries were only minor.

*Swoosh!*

However, it was too late for them to go, Jiang Chen would certainly not allow that. Just as they turned around, Jiang Chen’s silhouette appeared in front of them, blocking their way.

“Are you thinking of leaving just like that?”

Jiang Chen crossed his arms and spoke indifferently. Apparently, these three had come looking for trouble. He would lose his face and prestige if these people left intact. Tianji Zi might even think that he was a timid guy when this news reached him.

“Jiang Chen, what do you think you’re doing? Don’t go too far,” said Gao Yang with a frown.

“Haha! This is ridiculous. You all came here to cause me trouble even before daybreak, but now you are saying that I’m going too far. In that case, I’ll have to show you my true color. I have already warned you all that you shouldn’t mess with me because you can’t afford to.”

Jiang Chen laughed. He turned his palm, and a long sword appeared in his hand and dropped it. The sword clanged in the ground. Then, he spoke coldly, “Each of you has to cut one of your arms as punishment for provoking me. After that, I will let you all go.”

“What?”

Hearing this, the three of them exclaimed together. Demanding each of them to cut off an arm? That must be a joke. Even though it was normal for inner sect disciples to have fights against each other, generally, there wouldn’t be any major casualties and incapacitation. The bottom line was that they should never kill or maim their fellow disciples, however, Jiang Chen wanted one of their arms because of a conflict. This was no doubt overly cruel.
