Fang Yuan's full-powered punch was broken with a single finger. Everything happened in the blink of an eye. From Xiao Chen's attack to Fang Yuan's scream, Gu Lingyao had no time to react at all.
Fang Yuan, including the dead Wang Huan, were all at the beginning of the Dao Querying Realm. They seemed to be at the same level as Xiao Chen, but the difference between the two was like heaven and earth.
The reason was simple. Xiao Chen's cultivation was achieved step by step. Whether it was his foundation or comprehension, they were all honed by himself. Wang Huan and Fang Yuan's cultivation was achieved through the accumulation of elixirs.
Using elixirs to achieve cultivation was like a house without a foundation. It looked majestic, but in reality, it would collapse at the slightest touch.
It was impossible for a true heaven's pride to use pills to increase their cultivation. If they did so, it would only damage their foundation. How could a true heaven's pride do such a stupid thing in exchange for their future?
It was also because of this reason that Fang Yuan was no match for Xiao Chen even though they were at the same cultivation level. He couldn't even block a single finger from Xiao Chen.
He knelt in front of Xiao Chen and clutched his right arm tightly. Streams of blood dripped down his arm. Xiao Chen looked down at Fang Yuan and said indifferently, "I've said it before. If we fight, you'll be the one at a disadvantage."
Xiao Chen was not bothered by the fact that he was able to defeat Fang Yuan with just one finger. To Xiao Chen, such a person was but an ant. Even if his cultivation was at the same level as his, he was still an ant because his cultivation did not belong to him at all.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Fang Yuan's face flushed red. It was unknown whether he was angry or ashamed. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
How could he have imagined that he would not be able to withstand a single blow from Wang Huan? Wang Huan had never been his opponent in the past. In just two years, Wang Huan's strength had already grown to such an extent?
Unable to accept the reality in front of his eyes, Gu Lingyao was also shocked and stood rooted to the ground.
If Xiao Chen gave Gu Lingyao a feeling of doubt at first, then he was completely shocked now. He had mixed feelings in his heart, but Xiao Chen didn't care about it.
She ignored Fang Yuan's glare, which seemed as if she wanted to swallow her whole. After all, a glare could not kill. She turned to Gu Lingyao and smiled, "Junior Sister, let's talk another day. It's been a long journey, and I'm indeed a little tired today."
He could use this opportunity to get rid of Gu Lingyao. With that, Xiao Chen turned and left without waiting for Gu Lingyao's reply.
It wasn't until Xiao Chen's figure disappeared in front of them that Gu Lingyao slowly came back to his senses. He glanced at Fang Yuan, who was still bleeding profusely, and then looked in the direction Xiao Chen had left. Gu Lingyao muttered softly with a face full of surprise.
"Can a person really change so much in two years?"
Until now, Gu Lingyao still couldn't accept everything in front of her. It was really too shocking. Gu Lingyao knew very well what kind of person Wang Huan was. He was a living paper tiger, a hedonistic son of a rich family who bullied the weak and feared the strong. But now, such a hedonistic son of a rich family had transformed into an existence that could suppress Fang Yuan with a raise of his hand.
Xiao Chen didn't think too much about how much shock he had given to Gu Lingyao and Fang Yuan. The reason why Xiao Chen took action was because Fang Yuan was courting death. Even until the end, Xiao Chen didn't know Fang Yuan's identity, let alone that Fang Yuan was the Second Elder's grandson.
Returning to his residence alone, Xiao Chen realized that there were many areas where his plan didn't work, especially after arriving at the Tianqi Sect's encampment. The biggest problem was that even though Xiao Chen was impersonating Wang Huan, he didn't know anything about the Tianqi Sect. This wouldn't do. If this went on, he would definitely give himself away after a long time.
Sitting cross-legged on the cattail hassock in the room, Xiao Chen muttered to himself after secretly pondering for a while. "It seems that I still have to familiarize myself with the Tianqi Sect's situation as soon as possible, especially regarding Wang Huan."
If you wanted to impersonate someone, you had to at least understand that person. This was Xiao Chen's current priority. He had to understand Wang Huan as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to get through the Tianqi Sect.
After making up his mind, Xiao Chen began to take action that night. He already had a rough plan in his heart. If he wanted to understand Wang Huan, he naturally had to go through the people around him. Therefore, Xiao Chen's first target was the two Tianqi Sect disciples who had been following him from Lu City.
He took the initiative to invite the two of them over for a drink. In the face of Xiao Chen's invitation, the two of them naturally wouldn't refuse. In fact, they were extremely excited.
The news of Xiao Chen defeating Fang Yuan with a single finger during the day had already spread throughout the Tianqi Sect. All the disciples were dumbfounded when they heard the news of Wang Huan's return after two years. Even the sect master, Gu Qi, exclaimed in surprise after hearing the news. "Brother Chen, you're really strong.
"What exactly has this kid experienced in the past two years? He defeated Fang Yuan with a single finger. In the Tianqi Sect, there aren't more than a handful of people who can do this. "
Although Fang Yuan was a paper tiger, it wasn't an easy task to defeat him with a single finger. First of all, disciples of the same age as Fang Yuan often had cultivation levels that were far inferior to him. Therefore, Fang Yuan was already in an invincible position just by relying on his cultivation level. There were only a handful of people who could cultivate to the Dao Querying Realm at Fang Yuan's age without relying on elixirs in the Zhengtian Qi Sect. Therefore, Gu Qi was shocked that Xiao Chen could do this.
Xiao Chen didn't know that even Gu Qi was shocked because of him. At this moment, he was drinking happily with the two Tianqi Sect disciples. Of course, the drinking was fake. Xiao Chen's real goal was to get the information he needed from the two of them.
They drank until late at night. In the end, Xiao Chen personally sent the two of them out of the small courtyard.
After sending the two of them away, Xiao Chen returned to his room and secretly circulated his spiritual energy. The smell of alcohol on his body quickly evaporated. At Xiao Chen's level, it was basically impossible for him to get drunk unless he wanted to.
His mind was clear. Recalling the information he got from the two of them, Xiao Chen had a certain understanding of Wang Huan. Xiao Chen also completely understood the matter regarding Fang Yuan and Gu Lingyao.
He shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly. "This Wang Huan is really a talent. However, Fang Yuan and Gu Lingyao are now troublesome. After today's incident, the two of them have probably already set their sights on me. Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. Anyway, I must register for the sect's internal selection in two days."
