Chapter 255 The Enemy of My Enemy (2/2)

Many gasped in shock when they recognized that those ten were from the Fallen Immortals Sect. These people had built a reputation for themselves by going around challenging various sects. It felt everyone had heard of their names. It was to the point that many sects considered them to be a bad omen and avoided them.

The crowd began whispering. ”They're here at last. Looks like the Immortal's Sword Assembly this time will be quite a challenge.”

”Just what monsters are they to be that invincible? Sigh.”

”I even heard that all of them have at least six Spiritual Meridians. Even nine Spiritual Meridians are common among them. It's completely unheard of.”

The ten people looked smug after hearing these conversations. When One-dot Red walked past Xiao Chen, he sneered and said, ”Clean your neck and wait still. I'll be taking your life soon enough.”

He wasn't exactly quiet, so many disciples nearby heard him. Some who had heard the rumors about Xiao Chen looked excited. On one end was the mysterious youngster who recently shot to fame. On the other was a sect no one had ever heard of. Just what kind of sparks would their collision create? Many began to anticipate their fight.

Frowning, Xiao Chen watched those ten making their way to the registration counter. Compared to a few days ago, these people seemed to have gotten even stronger.

Suddenly, a silhouette stopped the members of the Fallen Immortals Sect. Everyone was alarmed. Who dared to provoke those people? They saw that person wearing a white badge on the chest, with the words ”Divine Mist Sect” carved on it. So it was someone from the Divine Mist Sect.

Of course, quite a few recognized him to be Zuoqiu Yang. His plan was to cultivate behind closed doors for three months before battling Xiao Chen. Under his father's persuasion, however, he ended up coming out ahead of time. Even though he hadn't reached the Nascent Soul Realm, his cultivation was now in the quasi-Nascent Soul Realm. It was enough to make him one of the strongest youngsters in the Violet Manor.

One-dot Red glanced at him. ”What are you doing?”

”Fallen Immortals Sect?” Zuoqiu Yang asked coldly.

Behind One-dot Red, Double-tailed Crane sneered and said, ”Since you know who we are, hurry up and get out of the way.”

”You don't have the right to speak!” Zuoqiu Yang retorted. The eruption of his quasi-Nascent Soul Realm aura was astonishing. He continued to look at One-dot Red. ”Do you dare to fight me?”

Zuoqiu Yang must have wanted to recover his sect's reputation after the provocation the Fallen Immortals Sect made.

In the platform east of the square, Perfected Immortal Feng Lan was wearing a tight frown. Perfected Immortal Zhong Li smiled and said, ”Is that the distinguished disciple from your sect, Zuoqiu Yang? Not bad. Not bad at all. He's able to step into the quasi-Nascent Soul Realm at such a young age.”

If this was any other time, Feng Lan would laugh merrily after hearing such words. Right now, he remained frowning. He forced a smile without replying.

In the public square, One-dot Red glanced at Zuoqiu Yang and said nonchalantly, ”You're not worth my time.”

The onlookers were stunned. Zuoqiu Yang was in the quasi-Nascent Soul Realm; wasn't the Fallen Immortals Sect too egotistical and conceited?

”What did you just say...?”

Zuoqiu Yang's voice was terrifying low. He had never experienced such scorn in his entire life. A dense murderous aura extended from him, making everyone felt as if cold sweat was beading on their back.

One-dot Red smiled. ”I said, you're not worth my time. I'm not interested in you either. Come back when you can win over him.” He pointed to the faraway Xiao Chen.

Zuoqiu Yang looked in the direction he was pointing at and his expression instantly darkened. Under the cover of such dense murderous aura, many in the crowd felt as if they had fallen into a nightmare. His eyes looked like fire was going to explode from within. Xiao Chen defeating him two times in a row at Canglan City was the greatest humiliation of his life. He had sworn to avenge himself.

Now that his other enemy was comparing him to another of his enemy, he was burning with extreme rage. He said solemnly, ”The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy. The two of you will die by my hands!”

He turned his head and glared daggers at Xiao Chen, his gaze venomous and fierce. Even those standing near Xiao Chen could sense the hatred in his gaze and they all distanced themselves.

Xiao Chen was surprised too. Zuoqiu Yang had become considerably stronger than before. Did he spur this? Now, it would be impossible for him to defeat Zuoqiu Yang as easily as he had before.

It seemed that the Immortal's Sword Assembly wouldn't be as simple as he had previously thought it would be.
