Chapter 2699

Helping Others

“Foolish lad! You’re not even a Divine King yet you wanna fight me? Haha. The Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart is not something you can touch!” Wang Lingzhi said disdainfully towards Jiang Chen.

“Well then, let our fist do the talking.” Jiang Chen shrugged as he moved forward steadily.

“Boy, you’ve chosen the wrong opponent. I’ll kill you to vent my anger. Hmph”

Wang Lingzhi did not hold back as he clashed with Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen’s attack was like a storming rain. Wang Lingzhi’s expression instantly changed. He did not expect Jiang Chen to be so strong. Not even a Peak Early Divine King like him could withstand that barrage.

Jiang Chen was unparalleled and unstoppable. Wang Lingzhi could not withstand that mighty and unstoppable force, and he was forced to defend and retreat.

“Boy, how are you so strong?” Wang Lingzhi said nervously.

Jiang Chen then closed-in swiftly and overpowered Wang Lingzhi with absolute strength. The latter lost the dignity of a Divine King. This was his first time seeing and experiencing such a humiliation, a Half-Step Divine King overpowering a Divine King. Not even those famous and powerful sect disciples could do such a thing.

“Boy, who are you?!” Wang Lingzhi’s expression became pale after receiving several palm strikes from Jiang Chen.

His bones were on the verge of breaking, he couldn’t fight back and he would certainly die if this continued.

“I can give you the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart but please let me go. I have done nothing wrong to you. It shouldn’t be too hard, right?”

Wang Lingzhi knew there’s nothing to gain if he continued, and he may certainly die here. However, he’s also angry that all his schemes went down the drain, but the fella was overpowering him, thoroughly.

“Why should I trust you? Who can prove that you don’t have an ulterior motive?” Jiang Chen sneered.

Wang Lingzhi shivered.

“I… I am just following the request of the Dongpo Clan’s patriarch, to ensure that Yu Huagan will stay on his bed and have the Yu Clan fight amongst themselves. The Dongpo Clan will then strike during the crucial moment. Then, the Yu Clan will eventually fall. I’m just a chess piece in this plan, my only aim is the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart.” Wang Lingzhi threw all the responsibility to the Dongpo Clan, denying all of his own actions.

Jiang Chen then understood that this wasn’t just Wang Lingzhi’s plan to get the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart. The contest between the clans in this region was pretty intense, but he didn’t believe that Wang Lingzhi was just a pawn.
