Although they were shocked, they were more afraid of Jiang Chen. In their point of view, no matter how powerful Jiang Chen was, this was the Prefecture. There were countless Earth Immortals and Heaven Immortals guarding the place. Causing trouble here was no different from courting death.
Now that the guard had been beaten up, it would be impossible for them to settle this peacefully. If they went against the Prefecture, how were they going to survive in the future?
* Hua La! *
After Jiang Chen sent the intermediate Human Immortal guard flying with a kick, the other guards, including the gate guards, surrounded Jiang Chen. Their faces were filled with anger as they looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief. In their point of view, this arrogant bastard dared to attack outside the Prefecture and injure the guards. This was the first time such a daring thing had happened in the entire Yan City.
"Brother Jiang."
Han Changling panicked. He didn't think that a young ascender like Jiang Chen would act so recklessly. As the steward of the Prefecture, Huang Liu wasn't someone to be trifled with. Now that Jiang Chen had beaten up someone, how could he let this matter go?
"Chief, stand aside. I will seek justice for all of you today. The value of your cart of herbs is far more than a hundred low grade Immortal Meta Stones."
Jiang Chen's face was cold as he signaled Han Changling not to say anything. He had his own way to deal with this matter.
"What an arrogant kid! You must have eaten the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard to behave atrociously in the Prefecture. What's your name?"
Huang Liu fumed and glared at Jiang Chen.
"Jiang Chen."
Jiang Chen said his name and said slowly, "Ask your steward to come out."
"Haha! Good! Good! I've finally met an unruly commoner today. I don't know what gave you such courage, but what you've done today won't be enough even if you have a hundred lives. Kill him!"
Huang Liu first burst into laughter. It was a mocking smile. Then, he gnashed his teeth and gave the order.
* Hong Long … … *
As soon as Huang Liu's voice faded, the surrounding guards unleashed their powerful Qi. Not only were there mid Human Immortal guards, but there were also late Human Immortal guards. Their offensive strength was also extremely powerful. Although their status in the Prefecture wasn't high, this was their first time seeing someone who dared to beat someone outside the Prefecture. They had to let this person know the consequences of behaving atrociously in the Prefecture, which wasn't something that an ordinary person could bear.
* Bang! Bang!
Another shocking scene appeared. Just as those guards were about to attack, they were forcefully sent flying by a force. Each and every one of them wailed in pain and fell ten meters away, lying on the ground, unable to stand up anymore. Even the late Human Immortal guard suffered the same fate.
Looking back at Jiang Chen, he was still standing there calmly, as if he wasn't the one who attacked just now. A few elite guards of the Prefecture were easily taken care of by Jiang Chen.
"What?"
This time, not only the villagers of Han Village, even Huang Liu couldn't help but exclaim. The way he looked at Jiang Chen had completely changed. He carefully examined Jiang Chen's cultivation base, but found out that he couldn't see through it with his eyesight.
"So powerful! How could a newly ascended cultivator possess such powerful combat strength? Not even a late Human Immortal expert was a match for him. They couldn't even put up a fight against him." "That's right.
Han Changling felt that he had to re-evaluate Jiang Chen. Normally, immortals who ascended from the lower world would be at the early Human Immortal realm. No matter how powerful an early Human Immortal was, it was impossible for an early Human Immortal to be a match for a late Human Immortal. He couldn't help but be shocked by Jiang Chen's power.
"Chief, it seems like we have underestimated him."
Second Brother Han said in a low voice.
"Jiang Chen, I didn't expect you to have some tricks up your sleeves. But no matter how powerful you are, don't even think about leaving the Prefecture today. I will kill you myself."
Huang Liu unleashed his half-step Earth Immortal Qi. Judging from his Qi alone, he was even more powerful than Han Changling. Huang Liu's cultivation base had already reached the peak of half-step Earth Immortal realm, only a step away from the true early Earth Immortal realm.
Unfortunately, this kind of terror was only relative to others. In front of Jiang Chen, Huang Liu didn't have the slightest advantage. His fate was the same as those guards lying on the ground.
* Pa! *
Almost at the same instant when Huang Liu made his move, Jiang Chen also moved. His movement was more than a hundred times faster than Huang Liu. Huang Liu had only made an attacking movement, but had already lost the chance to attack. Jiang Chen's palm clasped on Huang Liu's fat neck.
"If you move again, I will kill you."
Jiang Chen's tone suddenly became incomparably cold, bone-chilling.
Huang Liu, who was originally charging forward, was now sweating profusely. He saw Jiang Chen's eyes, which were as calm as an ancient well. He was sure that those eyes were filled with killing intent. He didn't doubt Jiang Chen's words at all. As long as he moved again, Jiang Chen would kill him immediately. Even though this was the Prefecture, he didn't feel any sense of security.
What made Huang Liu feel even more terrified was that his cultivation base was only half-step Earth Immortal, but under the opponent's control, he actually felt a kind of coldness that came from the depths of his soul. Under the invisible suppression of the opponent's Qi, he couldn't even move, let alone fight back.
Jiang Chen's Qi was like a huge mountain pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe. It was an absolute suppression.
"You, you dare to kill me? This is the Prefecture. You should know what will happen to you if you kill me. "
Huang Liu's voice was already trembling, but the backing of the City Lord's Mansion still gave him great confidence.
"You should be glad that this is the City Lord's Mansion. Otherwise, an annoying person like you would have died countless times already. However, you'd better not challenge my authority. If I want you to die now, you won't be able to live past the next second."
Jiang Chen said coldly.
"Listen, get those who can talk to me to come out and see me."
Jiang Chen said and kicked Huang Liu's big belly. Huang Liu cried out in pain and flew out like a meatball, falling into the Prefecture's gate.
"Jiang Chen, you don't know what's good for you, just you wait!"
Huang Liu gave a threatening roar before disappearing on all fours.
"It's over. This is getting out of hand."
Han Changling was dumbfounded. He didn't expect Jiang Chen to be so powerful that even a half-step Earth Immortal couldn't withstand a single strike from him. He didn't know how powerful Jiang Chen was, but he was sure of one thing – no matter how powerful Jiang Chen was, the Prefecture couldn't afford to offend him.
Jiang Chen was dressed in white, standing outside the gate of the Prefecture. The corner of his mouth was slightly raised, showing his extraordinary confidence.
Not long after that, another group of people rushed out of the Prefecture. Every one of them was full of Qi. The one in the lead seemed to be in his fifties. He had a strong body, but not fat. He had an extraordinary temperament and a trace of ruthlessness could be seen in between his eyebrows. One look and anyone could tell that he wasn't someone to be trifled with. What was more frightening was his cultivation base. He had already reached the early Earth Immortal realm, a true Earth Immortal expert.
Half-step Earth Immortal and early Earth Immortal seemed to be only a step apart, but the gap between them was like night and day. Half-step Earth Immortal was only infinitely close to the Earth Immortal realm, but not a true Earth Immortal.
Next to the man, Huang Liu was holding his stomach with one hand. That was the place where Jiang Chen kicked him. His other hand was pointing at Jiang Chen. "Cousin, it's this man. He's Jiang Chen. He's a lunatic. He was the one who beat all these people, including me."
The leader of the group was none other than Steward Wu, whom Han Changling had mentioned before. Whether it was in Saint Origin World or the Immortal World, strength was everything. Steward Wu's cultivation base was higher than Huang Liu's, so naturally, his position in the Prefecture was also higher.
Steward Wu glanced at the guards who were still wailing on the ground. His face was filled with anger. He stared at Jiang Chen with eyes as sharp as knives and said, "What an arrogant kid! How dare you come to the Prefecture and beat people? Who gave you the courage to do so?"
"Don't be angry, Steward Wu. Brother Jiang was forced to do so."
Han Changling hastily stepped forward and bowed deeply to Steward Wu. He and Steward Wu could be considered as old acquaintances. Steward Wu was the one who received the medicinal herbs every time they came to deliver.
"Han Changling, your Han Village sure has guts to behave atrociously in the City Lord's Mansion. I don't think your Han Village wants to stay in Yan City any longer."
Steward Wu said in a contemptuous tone.
"Don't be angry, Steward Wu. Every time we deliver medicinal herbs, we pay 100 Immortal Meta Stones, but this time, Steward Huang has deducted half of it, giving us only 50 Immortal Meta Stones. That's why Brother Jiang has offended all of you."
Han Changling hastily explained.
"Humph! Let's not talk about the Immortal Meta Stones. This is the matter of Jiang Chen beating people. "
Steward Wu harrumphed coldly and ignored Han Changling. His eyes shifted to Jiang Chen and said, "Kid, the mistake you have made today is unforgivable. I want you to kneel down and kowtow to my cousin as an apology. If you do that, I might leave your corpse intact."
"Haha! Just you? Ridiculous! Huang Liu, I asked you to find someone who could speak, but you only found this old thing. I might as well tell you that the value of this cart of medicinal herbs is at least 100,000 low grade Immortal Meta Stones. If it's not enough, you better not come out and make a fool of yourself. "
Jiang Chen laughed loudly. There were many people who threatened to make Jiang Chen kneel down, but unfortunately, they all ended up in a miserable state.
