Evil City, the conference hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
Yang Bufan was sitting on the main seat with a resolute face. Below him were more than a dozen powerful experts. Those who could sit here were all late Golden Immortal experts. Two of them were half-step Immortal Kings. Such a lineup had already surpassed One-Line-Sky. To put it bluntly, if Yang Bufan brought these people into One-Line-Sky, he would immediately become the strongest major power in One-Line-Sky. Even the four major powers would have to submit to him.
However, to Yang Bufan, the war with the Evil Clan in Evil Abyss was far more exciting than the outside world. It also gave him a greater sense of achievement.
Tyrant and Da Huang Dog were also here. Given their cultivation base, they weren't qualified to be here, but because of their relationship with Jiang Chen, their status had instantly changed. Plus, Tyrant was an eminent monk of Buddha Sect who could use the Edifying Light to deal with the Evil Clan. Therefore, no one dared to look down on Tyrant.
Moreover, many of them thought that Tyrant was an eminent monk of White Dragon Temple. White Dragon Temple was the true important place of Buddha Sect in the Immortal World. Although it stood aloof from worldly affairs, it had a great reputation and influence.
"City Lord, due to the fact that Jiang Chen had slaughtered a large number of demonic devils, the demonic devils of the Evil Clan have become very restless. They have been entangled and fighting with many cities. It seems like the higher-ups of the Evil Clan are preparing to go all out against us."
A half-step Immortal King expert spoke. Although his cultivation base had already reached the half-step Immortal King realm, he still had to be respectful in front of Yang Bufan, not daring to show the slightest neglect.
"Don't be nervous. This isn't the first or second time that the Evil Clan has become restless. I'm here to deter them."
Yang Bufan's face was indifferent. He didn't put the restlessness of the Evil Clan in his eyes at all. He wasn't afraid even if he had to go to war with the Evil Clan.
"City Lord, I think the situation this time isn't the same. Judging from the Evil Clan's reaction, it seems like they want to go to war with us. In their minds, Evil Abyss is their territory and we humans are just invaders. Sooner or later, there will be a war between us."
One of them said.
Upon hearing this, Yang Bufan knitted his brows. He wasn't afraid of the Evil Clan, but before he had absolute confidence, he didn't want to start a war with them.
"Kaka, what are you worried about? When Jiang Chen comes back, he will definitely deal a heavy blow to the Evil Clan. Lord Dog can guarantee that Jiang Chen will obtain great benefits from this trip to One-Line-Sky. His cultivation base will advance by leaps and bounds."
Da Huang Dog laughed heartily. His bloodline was noble, and he had arrogance in his bones. Even when facing so many experts, he didn't have the slightest bit of stage fright, and he didn't have the slightest bit of scruples when speaking.
"City Lord, you let Jiang Chen return to One-Line-Sky. I'm afraid he won't come back. After all, not everyone wants to come to this place."
"That's right. The City Lord was too hasty in letting him go back then. I think there's an 80% chance that Jiang Chen won't return."
The two of them said. They thought that Jiang Chen would never return after leaving. They were not the only ones who thought the same. After all, if Jiang Chen was a normal person, he would never think of returning.
* Swoosh! *
As soon as their voices faded, Yang Bufan's blade-like eyes fell on them. A wave of ice-cold pressure made them shiver uncontrollably. Immediately, they lowered their heads, not daring to look at Yang Bufan in the eye.
"Are the two of you questioning me?"
Yang Bufan's tone was flat, but to the two of them, this flat tone was the scariest.
* Putong! *
Immediately, the two of them knelt on the ground. "Subordinate doesn't dare. It's our fault. City Lord, please punish us."
Two mighty late Golden Immortal experts were kneeling on the ground, shivering, not even daring to raise their heads. Such a scene shocked Tyrant and Da Huang Dog. The way they looked at Yang Bufan had changed.
This was the power of deterrence and dignity. Some dignity was inviolable. In Evil Abyss, Yang Bufan was the true Lord. No one dared to question him. As the two of them had witnessed his means with their own eyes, they understood how stupid their words were. Questioning the Evil Lord here was no different than courting death. Even though they were mighty late Golden Immortal experts, Yang Bufan only needed to lift a finger to kill them.
Just at this time, the void in the hall trembled all of a sudden. Then, a door was opened. A figure flashed out of it and landed in the hall. The newcomer was clad in white. Who else could it be if he wasn't Jiang Chen?
"Don't be angry, Brother Yang. They were just speaking casually. There's no doubt that they have offended Brother Yang's divine prestige."
As soon as Jiang Chen appeared, he immediately clasped his fists at Yang Bufan. He had already seen what had happened at the end of the passageway. Now that the Evil Abyss was in a critical situation, these two experts were very strong. More importantly, Jiang Chen's words could make them feel grateful to him, which would help him establish his position in Evil City.
"Get up."
Yang Bufan retracted his cold gaze and spoke in a flat tone.
"Thank you, City Lord. Thank you, City Lord."
The two heaved a sigh of relief when they felt the invisible pressure disappearing from their bodies. They knew that they had passed this hurdle. It had only been a few seconds, but to them, it felt like hundreds of years had passed. It was as if they had taken a stroll through the gates of hell.
"Thank you, Brother Jiang Chen. We shouldn't have doubted Brother Jiang's character just now."
The two of them clasped their fists at Jiang Chen. One of them spoke. They had a very good impression of Jiang Chen now because Jiang Chen's timely appearance had saved their lives.
Moreover, they also felt a trace of guilt towards Jiang Chen. After all, they had just said that Jiang Chen wouldn't come back, but Jiang Chen appeared in front of them. This was simply a slap to their faces.
"We're all on the same side. Don't stand on ceremony."
Jiang Chen smiled and didn't mind.
"Little Chenzi, you're back."
Tyrant and Da Huang Dog were incomparably surprised to see Jiang Chen's return.
"En."
Jiang Chen nodded, then turned to Yang Bufan. At this moment, Yang Bufan was also looking at him. All eyes in the hall were looking at Jiang Chen. Countless eyes were filled with astonishment when they sensed the change in Jiang Chen's qi, including Yang Bufan.
"Brother Jiang is indeed a peerless genius. It has only been a few days since he left, but his cultivation base has improved so much. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it."
