Chapter 727: Lin Bai
The young man’s expression immediately changed. Instantly, his gaze became a glare and he said coldly, “Hmph, even a low class Radiant Saint Master dares to be so arrogant. You really don’t know what’s good for you. I want to see what abilities you have to stop me from taking this beast cub.” The young man leapt up, quickly and directly flew from his magical beast mount at Jian Chen. Like a lightning flash, his hand shot out toward the white tiger on Jian Chen’s head.
A sliver of cold light flashed across Jian Chen’s eyes. The young man’s actions had completely angered Jian Chen. However, Jian Chen did not react to him; he was now a Radiant Saint Master, so he definitely could not use his powers as a fighter in the public. Otherwise, his secret would just collapse on itself.
The white tiger stared closely at the young man who had grabbed at it with its bright eyes. A look of mockery and disdain appeared in those intelligent-looking eyes. Just when the young man had arrived before the tiger, it suddenly opened its small mouth and bit one of the young man’s fingers.
The young man had never thought that the seemingly harmless beast cub would possess such great speed. So fast that even he was unable to react. As soon as his finger was bitten by the tiger cub, he immediately felt a strong sensation of pain. It caused the young man’s expression to change greatly, before crying out painfully without any control.
“Argh!” The young man gave out a miserable cry of pain. He actually retreated with a greater speed than he had arrived, and retreated to a distance over ten meters away in the blink of an eye. He stared at the harmless-looking tiger cub on Jian Chen’s head, still badly shaken.
The young man bled from his right hand. His finger was broken by the small tiger’s bite, causing his face to twist from the agony.
The unbelieveable scene attracted the attention of bystanders. They were all rather surprised and stared at the tiger cub. No one thought that such a harmless-looking tiger cub could actually bite and break a person’s finger so quickly. Especially a Great Saint Master’s finger, which made it even more unbelievable.
“Just… just what is this magical beast?” The young man forcefully suppressed the pain from his hand and cried out aloud as he stared at the tiger in shock. His calm mental state was no longer existent, because he actually failed to detect how the tiger cub had broken his finger with a bite. All he felt was an agonising pain as soon as he grabbed the cub.
“Who would’ve thought that this cute tiger cub has such a powerful attack. Quite unexpected.” The girl with the green Radiant Saint Master badge on the magical beast stared at the white tiger with even more interest. Her desire for the tiger cub became even stronger.
The young man who had his finger broken stared at the white tiger with glimmering eyes before looking at Jian Chen. He said with a deep voice, “Sir, your tiger cub has broken my finger. Justice must be done for me, Lei Mingao. Leave your tiger cub behind, I’ll take it to my Lei family. If so I can forgive you for being disrespectful towards our Lei family.
Jian Chen gently lifted the small tiger off of his head and gently rubbed its furry head as he carried it. He glared harshly at the young man, before he turned and left without saying another word. With Jian Chen’s current identity, he just could not waste it all here and argue with the young man. If it were not for that fact that he could not use his strength as a fighter, he would have taught the arrogant young man a lesson long ago.
Seeing how he was ignored by a mere low class Radiant Saint Master, Lei Mingao was enraged. He stuck out his hand and pointed at Jian Chen, “Stop him! If justice is not done for me, Lei Mingao, today, none ofyou will dare leave. My finger cannot be broken for nothing!”
The dozen or so large men who rode behind Lei Mingao and the girl immediately steered their magical beasts and surrounded Jian Chen. Although Radiant Saint Masters possessed an extremely respectable status in the Holy Empire, the Lei family also possessed some strength in the City of God. A mere Radiant Saint Master who had not even been tested was viewed as nothing to the Lei family.
“Take him down. We’ll judge him in the Lei family later.” Lei Mingao commanded.
“Yes sir!” The dozen or so men replied simultaneously, before lunging at Jian Chen. However, just at this moment, a powerful voice resounded in the surroundings.
“How dare you! Your Lei family actually dares to disrespect a Radiant Saint Master. Perhaps your Lei family is challenging the dignity of the Radiant Saint Master Union!?”
The voice immediately stopped the several men from acting so rashly. Each of them stared towards the origin of the voice.
