Chapter 1479: Disdainfully Looking Down On Others
When Long Chen first walked out of a small alley, no one noticed. But very quickly, startled cries began to ring out.
They couldn’t quite believe their eyes. But then they confirmed that they weren’t just seeing things. The wanted criminal of the entire Eastern Xuan Region was actually in the Eastern Xuan City.
“Long Chen… he actually appeared.”
“What’s he doing? Is he provoking all the powers in the Eastern Xuan City?”
“That’s way too arrogant, right? Is he trying to defy the heavens?”
An uproar exploded, spreading throughout the city. And yet, Long Chen ignored it all. He started walking straight down the main central street.
This was the most bustling road in the city. It went from one end of the city all the way to the other, and it was where people were the most concentrated.
Following Long Chen’s arrival, more and more experts flocked over to confirm that the reports were true.
When they saw that black-robed man arrogantly walking down the road, they were incomparably shocked.
In the entire Eastern Xuan Region, the most famous person was Long Chen. Even the light of Empyreans was drowned out by him.
Seeing him, these experts all felt their hearts pounding with fear. That was because the rumors were that Long Chen had destroyed the Xuantian Dao Sect and the Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect.
Although no one had witnessed the Xuantian Dao Sect’s destruction, someone had been recording the destruction of the Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect, and his divine ring had been visible.
Now that he appeared in the Eastern Xuan City and they saw he was only at the peak of the Jade Core realm, they didn’t know whether or not they could believe that.
A Jade Core disciple could destroy two grand sects? Whoever had come up with that was trying to test the limits of human’s imagination.
The huge road was packed with experts. But wherever Long Chen went, they parted like he was a demon.
“Long Chen, you traitor. Do you still have the face to come out after destroying your sect and killing your masters? If you have the slightest conscience, you’d kill yourself right here to wipe away your sins!” shouted a Soul Transformation expert from the crowd.
Seeing that this wanted criminal was only at the Jade Core realm, several people began to add in their insults.
This was only encouraged when Long Chen acted like he didn’t even hear that person. He simply continued to walk forward.
“This person is the devil of the Eastern Xuan Region! He’s wanted by everyone. Don’t be afraid. If you kill him, all the various large powers will reward you with an Ancestral item! Attack together!” A Soul Transformation expert suddenly raised his saber and left the crowd to attack.
He was a rogue cultivator with decent power, but his head wasn’t very good. He thought that a single shout would make the crowd follow his lead.
He hadn’t expected that not a single person would respond to him. Instead, everyone else retreated.
He quickly reached Long Chen before putting on his emergency brakes. Only now did he realize he was alone with Long Chen. His soul almost fled out of terror.
He was right in front of Long Chen. In that instant, he felt like he was facing a merciless devil, and he was struck dumb. His saber was simply raised in the air, but he didn’t dare to slash it down.
Only once he approached Long Chen did he realize that this seemingly ordinary youth was giving off an extremely strong air of death.
It was like Long Chen wouldn’t even need to move to kill him, like a single thought could end his life. He had never encountered such a terrifying person.
He stood there in terror, paralyzed with fear. He quivered, wanting to leave but also not daring to move. And Long Chen walked past him just like that.
His saber was just a few inches from Long Chen’s face, but Long Chen didn’t even seem to see it. He continued walking forward just like he had been the whole time.
“What a coward.” Mocking voices could be heard from amongst the crowd.
Now facing Long Chen’s back, this person was provoked by their insults, and his saber suddenly stabbed toward Long Chen’s back.
Just as his saber was about to pierce Long Chen’s back, a hand caught the tip. Long Chen pushed back ever so slightly.
