Chapter 1210: Who Is Trash? (1/2)

Xiao Chen believed that the other party would choose to retreat in the face of difficulty, not seeking trouble where there was none in the first place. After all, with Old Man Feng having lived for so long already, Old Man Feng could not be unaware of the principles that he, a youth, knew.

However, if the other party still dared to continue, Xiao Chen would not hold back.

After arriving in this oceanic world, Xiao Chen had experienced great battles in every sea region he visited. Their cultivation grades did not differ by much, and he had never feared another before.

Old Man Feng shook his body, destroying the sand on it in the process. As he looked at Xiao Chen with the many dragons soaring behind him, rage blazed in his eyes.

Rationality told Old Man Feng that continuing to fight at this point would not lead to any good result.

However, he could not bear to be humiliated by a youth while in this circle.

“Green brat, you really do not know what is good for you. Today, I’ll show you the true strength of a half-step Martial Emperor,” Old Man Feng shouted angrily, and small tornadoes appeared behind him, each of them only the size of his fingers.

However, as the tornadoes spun around, small tears appeared in s.p.a.ce. These tornadoes cl.u.s.tered together densely, making it seem like the s.p.a.ce behind him would crumble and shatter.

“That’s enough. OId Man Feng, there’s no need for you to cause a ruckus here for no reason!”

Just at this moment, a cold snort resounded.

An old man sat cross-legged, nearly touching the stone stele, as close as he could possibly get. He looked very ordinary, not radiating any aura.

This white-robed old man was the one who spoke. The moment he opened his mouth, he immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

This reprimand startled Old Man Feng, who had been called out. He had not expected to attract the attention of this white-haired old man.

“He already proved that he has the strength to stand here. If you want to try and regain your face, do it after you enter the Human-Demon Paradise. If not, scram farther away. Don’t disturb the others here.”

The white-haired old man’s tone was relatively aggressive and impolite. However, Old Man Feng, the target of the scolding, did not dare to rebut.

After glaring at Xiao Chen, Old Man Feng obediently withdrew his aura and stood at the side.

Xiao Chen stopped circulating his energy for the Thunder Dragon Steps and looked at the old man before the stone stele. He felt startled. He had not noticed this old man before this.

However, the moment this old man spoke, no one dared to say a word. Even the raging Old Man Feng did not say anything at being scolded.

Without great strength, this white-haired old man would definitely not have such influence.

The hidden talents of the Human-Demon Sea might be within this circle. Perhaps there might be more of such people like this white-haired old man concealed here. They might look ordinary with nothing extraordinary about them. However, in actual fact, they were incomparably strong.

Brother Xiao, this way!

A voice appeared in Xiao Chen’s ears. Dugu Ao had sent a voice projection to him. Xiao Chen looked over and nodded to indicate acknowledgment. Then, he went over with Ao Jiao.

In the small circle of the ten outstanding talents, Dugu Ao and the purple-haired girl stood together, separated from the others by a certain distance.

Seeing Xiao Chen and Ao Jiao heading for Dugu Ao, the other eight of the ten outstanding talents all revealed strange expressions.

This was because Dugu Ao possessed a fiery temper and a proud temperament. Aside from the purple-haired girl, he did not have many other friends that could get along with him in the same age group.

Aside from this, there was also one particular reason. Everyone knew that although Dugu Ao was a mixed-blood, he cultivated the Quintessence of the humans instead of the Death Qi or Demonic Qi of the Deep Abyss Demonic World’s Demon Races. It was like he had a pathological aversion to such Qi and did not have many friends because of it.

Even so, such a reclusive person seemed to know this white-robed person. Naturally, his familiarity incited the interest of others.

“Interesting. Unexpectedly, aside from Mu Xiyan, there is someone else who can make friends with Dugu Ao,” a handsome red-haired man who looked firm and resolute muttered.

This person was called Pei Yan. He was the top ranker of the ten outstanding talents and had defeated half-step Martial Emperors several times before.

As a mixed-blood between humans and Fire Demons, he possessed great comprehension ability regarding the will of fire as well as a unique understanding of it.

Seeing Xiao Chen and Ao Jiao walk over to Dugu Ao, Pei Yan started thinking to himself, Will these two additional people pose a variable in my plan?

“What’s wrong? It is just two more trash. You think that Dugu Ao can triumph over us?” a person at the side asked.

This person showed a frosty expression, appearing extremely arrogant, proud, and aloof.

Pei Yan smiled and said, “In your eyes, anyone who is not as strong as you are is trash. However, even if it was a dog, if you got bitten, it would still be problematic. Your mentality is unacceptable.”

The two clearly stood out from the rest. They both gave off a strong aura, proclaiming their extraordinariness.

In fact, that was not wrong. This frosty-faced man was Han Feng, the second ranker of the ten outstanding talents, who was also known as the Cold-Blooded Swordsman. He was cold and emotionless, vicious and merciless.

Of the ten outstanding talents, the remaining six were led by Ye Ziheng and formed another group.

With Pei Yan, Dugu Ao, and Ye Ziheng as the leaders, the ten outstanding talents formed three circles. It appeared that they all had a common target.

Xiao Chen and Ao Jiao’s arrival disrupted some kind of balance, causing a commotion in this little circle.

“Hehe! Xiao Chen, right? This is the first time we are meeting. This little lady is Mu Xiyan.”
