Chapter 569 (2/2)
Fiercely staring at Wen Qingxuan, Lu Tian said in a deep voice, “Wen Qingxuan, we’ve never butted in your business. What’s the meaning of this?”
Sweeping a look out at Lu Tian with her beautiful eyes, Wen Qingxuan didn’t take notice to his words, merely keeping her long spear back to allow for Mu Chen to head forward.
“Haha. You must be Captain Lu Tian, right…?” said Mu Chen, sending a faint smile towards Lu Tian. “I’m the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy’s Mu Chen. We’ve come here today to ask for a favor from you, Captain Lu Tian…”
“Mu Chen?”
Hearing that name, Lu Tian’s eyes instantly contracted. Naturally, he had heard about some news of Mu Chen. Furthermore, he also knew about the great grudges and grievances between him and Ji Xuan.
A chilling glint started to surface within Lu Tian’s eyes. Nevertheless, remaining calm and collected, he replied with an different tone. “Oh? I seem to have no connection with you… I’m afraid that it’ll be somewhat difficult for me to help you.”
“I’ve quite a simple proposition for you, Captain Lu Tian,” said Mu Chen with a smile.
“Oh? Let’s hear it.”
Staring straight at Lu Tian, the smile hanging on Mu Chen’s face appeared somewhat warm and gentle. Replying in a gentle voice, he said, “I wish for Captain Lu Tian to publicly announce that you have dispelled the alliance with Ji Xuan.
Hearing that, Lu Tian’s face instantly changed. Sinisterly staring at Mu Chen, he said in a ridiculing fashion, “This joke’s not one bit funny.”
Wrinkling his forehead, Mu Chen replied, “So, Captain Lu Tian’s not willing?”
“Mu Chen, I know that you have some grudges and grievances with Ji Xuan. However I have to remind you that it’s best for you to be more honest. Let me tell you a fact! There’s not even half an aspect you have that can match up to Ji Xuan,” said Lu Tian with a sneer as he stared at Mu Chen. “Compared to Ji Xuan, you’re still lacking too much!”
“Looks like negotiations are over then,” said Mu Chen with a helpless smile.
“So what if negotiations are over? Do you think that you’ll be able to dominate this place just by licking Wen Qingxuan’s boot?” said Lu Tian with a sneer. With a wave of his hand, the dozen Captains of First Grade Spirit Disaster gathered around him, proceeding to covetously stare at Mu Chen and his group.
In the end, they were in the same boat as Lu Tian, and naturally did not want to see anything happening to Lu Tian. Although Wen Qingxuan was standing before them, causing extreme fear and dread to surface within them, there was still the existence of Ji Xuan behind Lu Tian’s back.
That was the most tyrannical person present on the current point rankings.
If they were able to climb on his boat, there would absolutely be no one in this central region that would dare to aim for them.
Whoosh!
Below, the people that had encircled the groups, with Lin Zhou’s included, within had also hastily shot back. Hovering in the air, they sent hostile gazes as they stared right at Mu Chen and his group.
Crossing his hands before his chest, Lu Tian looked down on Mu Chen from above. Although there was the existence of Wen Qingxuan and her group by Mu Chen’s side, he had over a hundred men in the groups under his wing. Among them, the experts who were in the First Grade Spirit Disaster numbered a dozen. Such a formation would make squashing Mu Chen to death an absolute possibility.
“With the grudges and grievances present between you and him, Ji Xuan would naturally come and find you without needing me to get involved. For the sake of giving Wen Qingxuan face, if you take the initiative and leave now, I’ll not haggle about the matter of you injuring Zhou Ya,” said Lu Tian with an indifferent voice.
“That truly is a pity.”
Mu Chen gave a helpless laugh, merely that his black pupils turned ice-cold in an instant. With a furious stomp of his feet, black lightning appeared to erupt from his body in an instant.
Whoosh!
Whooshing sounds rang out as Mu Chen appeared to have transformed into a bolt of lightning. In the next instant, appearing right before Lu Tian, he sent a palm abruptly patting out.
Bang!
Lightning converged under Mu Chen’s palm. As it traveled, the air was pressed to the point of exploded apart, with signs of distortion and warping even appearing in the surrounding space.
Lu Tian was clearly vigilant towards Mu Chen. Therefore, upon this sudden assault, not a single trace of fluster was shown by him. On the contrary, a sneer rang out instead. “I’ve long heard about you, Mu Chen. I really want to see exactly how capable you really are!”
Lu Tian sent a palm patting out. His palm sparkled with white light, before a malevolent-looking gauntlet made of bones appeared in a flash. This white bone gauntlet appeared to be covered with bone spikes, with their tips sparkling with a dark light. Clearly, it was an exceedingly powerful Spiritual Artifact.
This Lu Tian truly was crafty, being able to even enact such a malevolent plan out in such circumstances. At this moment, even Mu Chen was not able to pull his palm back anymore.
If he was to forcefully pull his hand back, what would follow would be a fierce attack coming from Lu Tian that would completely suppress him.
However, Lu Tian did not appear to notice the corner of Mu Chen’s mouth curling slightly up when his bone gauntlet had appeared. In the next instant, a flash of radiance sparkled form the latter’s palm, before an ancient stone seal appeared in a flash.
This stone seal appeared to be in a dark green shadow, with ancient patterns carved on its surface. Present on the stone seal was the carving of a stone tortoise.
As it appeared, frightening gravitational forces started to radiated, causing signs of warping and distortions to appear in the surrounding space. As this happened, even the Spiritual Energies present in the surroundings were forced to the point of scattering away.
The originally chilling smile present on Lu Tian’s face instantly froze, with a look of shock replacing it.
From the Spiritual Energy fluctuations, the stone seal that had appeared in Mu Chen’s hand was unexpectedly a Divine Artifact?!
