Chapter 431: Number Fifty

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

It wasn’t only Ying Wushuang and Murong Yuan who had recognized Jiang Chen.

This disciple of the Hero Palace, ranked in the top 100 of List A of the Dragon Rise List, was known to many people.

Even people who had never met him knew some of his features.

For instance, he used knives with his right hand and swords with his left hand, he had attained many achievements although he was still very young, and he had achieved all of these thanks to his own efforts.

Those who hadn’t recognized him had also heard his name from others.

They thought of how he had killed Liu Shayang at the Wind Moon City. If they were from the Sacred City, they also knew about the stir he had caused when he had tried to get onto the Fighting Power List.

Zhang Yu was one of those who didn’t know him as well. All of his attention had been caught by his scarlet spiritual sword.

“Okay. You use a sword. So what? It takes even a master of fight doctrine a long time to start using weapons again.”

Zhang Yu wasn’t frightened. He said coldly, “Besides, I don’t believe you can exert the same power contained in your fist in your sword.”

“You’ll see when I attack.”

It was true that dragon power didn’t apply to sword methods. Jiang Chen had to give it up, but since he had mastered the fight doctrine, his sword could exert the extraordinary power of wind and thunder and the holy pulse, as well as the phoenix power in his blood.

“Come on!” Zhang Yu launched an attack first, trying to figure out whether he was just bluffing.

This time, he was in his optimal state of fight doctrine. His palm attack was extremely powerful, as if he intended to conquer the whole world.

“Special movement: Holy Sword Palm!”

The power of the palm attack was endless, swift and fierce.

Jiang Chen knew he wouldn’t be able to take this attack the usual way. He had to try his best to compete with his rival.

“The Sword Method of Ksana: The Second Movement!”

Also a special movement, as soon as the sword had been brandished, the whole world seemed to still. A glaze-like blue light was shining between the sword and the sword user.

“What?” Li Nanxing suddenly looked up. Rare surprise flashed in his eyes.

He was the only person who had realized something when Jiang Chen had thrown the sword over.

The others didn’t realize anything until the sword had streaked through the sky and Zhang Yu had been conquered completely.

When they were still thinking how to express the shock that had seized them, the sword had stopped.

The result had come out. Cut into pieces, Zhang Yu’s coat fell off his body, while the rest of him was safe and sound.

Jiang Chen hadn’t killed Zhang Yu, because as he had said, the latter had helped him achieve his goal.

“How could he be so fast?”

Murong Yuan had been expecting Zhang Yu to defeat Jiang Chen. This result was unacceptable to her.

The members of the Holy Sword Society raised their arms and cheered, giving the place an air of enthusiasm. The crowd went into uproar.

This was undoubtedly a wonderful fight.

Many people had been convinced by Jiang Chen, due to the fact that he had become a master of fight doctrine during the fight and his last sword attack had been fast enough to race against time.

The thing was, Jiang Chen was still so young. Many people saw him as an example and looked forward to his future achievements.

“Jiang Chen!” Ying Wushuang immediately rushed up to him in the air, while Zhang Yu returned to the ground in a bad mood.

“Wushuang!”

He didn’t see Han Siming, but to his surprise, he met Ying Wushuang.

It became an even more pleasant surprise when he learned all of the members of the Holy Sword Society were there, and all of them were alive.

On the ground, Murong Yuan had disappeared. Han Feiyu was going to slip away, too, but the members of the Holy Sword Society stopped him.

He was actually stronger than any of them, but he didn’t dare attack them anymore.

Jiang Chen and Ying Wushuang landed on the ground.

“It’s him?”

Jiang Chen had heard what had happened from Ying Wushuang. His look was even colder than when he had been fighting.

Han Feiyu felt a shiver down his back. He didn’t dare act on impulse.

He only had the nerve to bully insignificant people, not those ranked on List A of the Dragon Rise List.

As for Jiang Chen, ranked fiftieth, he could crush Han Feiyu with a single hand.

“Jiang Chen, it’s not allowed to fight in the city!” He was hoping the rule could save him.

“A fight? That’s what you’re thinking of? I’m afraid you’ll only take a beating.”

Jiang Chen came up to him and gave him two slaps that made him woozy. At the same time, Jiang Chen hit him at his Qihai with a powerful strike.

Han Feiyu writhed in pain on the ground. Feeling like his Qihai was about to burst apart, he was in distress.

“You disabled me! You disabled me!” Han Feiyu shouted loudly, out of control.

“If that’s what you want.” Jiang Chen curled his lip. He felt so disdained with this guy that he didn’t even want to touch him.

It took Han Feiyu a good while to discover his Qihai hadn’t burst apart, though it wasn’t in a good status, either.

He would need more than a month to recover, but he was in the secret treasure at that moment. Han Feiyu knew very clearly what that meant.

“Okay. Well played!”

Han Feiyu gnashed his teeth. Looking towards the women beside him, he said, “Help me stand up.”

However, those women, who had once been totally obedient to him and whispered sweet nothings to him, didn’t move at all.

They looked at him with disdain when they had confirmed he had lost all of his fighting power.

“You’re a disabled man now. You can’t take us to find treasure anymore. What authority do you have to order us around?” the woman who had been his most fervent supporter said coldly, squinting at him.

“B*tch!” Han Feiyu cursed.

The woman ignored him and looked towards Jiang Chen. Smiling obediently, she said, “Apprentice Brother Jiang Chen, can we join your team?”

“Nope.” Ying Wushuang came forward and refused them directly.

Then Jiang Chen left with the members of the Holy Sword Society. Only Han Feiyu was still sitting there like a beggar.

He had gotten into trouble because of women and lost everything. How ironic it was.

...

On the bell tower, Li Nanxing, Murong Long, and Su Xing were still talking about the sword attack.

“He just mastered the fight doctrine, and he’s already able to use his weapon to that extent. That’s miraculous,” Su Xing sang Jiang Chen’s praises. With his high social status, he didn’t do that a lot.

If levels of fight doctrine were classified, there would be two levels—with weapons and without weapons.

Of course, it wasn’t precise enough, since some people’s weapon was their fist or palm, like Green Ghost.

“It was more like a well-planned performance to me. How could it be such a coincidence, that he broke through right at the crucial moment? This isn’t a story.” Murong Long wouldn’t believe it.

Maybe because he had never thought highly of Jiang Chen, or maybe because he didn’t want to see someone break his own record.

“Even if what you said is true, he put on a wonderful show, and with splendid timing,” said Su Xing.

“As a member of the Evil Cloud Palace, why are you commending the Hero Palace?” Murong Long said in a voice dripping with sarcasm.

Su Xing didn’t take it seriously. He said, “The eight great aristocratic families of inheritance are on the side of the Hero Palace, so why did you belittle a disciple of the Hero Palace?”

“The aristocratic families of inheritance aren’t on anybody’s side. Nothing is more important than the interests of the family,” said Murong Long.

The two kept arguing, but their conversation didn’t provoke any reaction from Li Nanxing.

“Enough,” he said.

Su Xing and Murong Long came to themselves. They glanced at each other and nodded.

“Guys, listen to me!” Murong Long stood up. His voice was as loud as thunder. Even people outside of the city could hear him.

“There’s an even bigger treasure than the Martial Imperial City in this world,” said Murong Long.

Everyone was shocked, including Jiang Chen.

When the Martial Imperial City had been discovered, the energy of the treasure had surged into the clouds.

Blood had been flowing everywhere in the city due to the fight for the treasure that day.
