Buzz …
Two extremely powerful Perfect-Ranked Combat Weapons produced buzzing sounds, and the cold killing intent that was leaking out from them was enough to make anyone's heart tremble. Jiang Chen and Wu Cong stood facing each other. Everyone were holding their breaths at this moment. Everyone knew that the battle between these two men had come to an end.
"Who do you think will win?"
"My guess is Wu Cong. After all, he is a peerless Mid Combat Soul genius, and he is also the Martial Saint Dynasty's prince, the son of the Tenth Emperor. He has extraordinary abilities. Although Jiang Chen is an abnormal monster, he is still just a Divine Core warrior. There is still a huge gap between them."
"I don't think so, I think Jiang Chen will win. You guys have all seen what happened in the previous battle, Jiang Chen and Wu Cong are equally matched. However, the sword in Jiang Chen's hand is obviously stronger than the halberd in Wu Cong's hand. If they really fight, Wu Cong won't have the upper hand."
… …
Many people started whispering to each other. Some of them thought that there was an insurmountable gap between the Divine Core realm and the Combat Soul realm, and although Jiang Chen was a formidable warrior, he still wouldn't be Wu Cong's match.
Some of them also thought that Jiang Chen was stronger. After all, in the previous battle, Jiang Chen and Wu Cong were equally matched. However, the sword in Jiang Chen's hand was clearly stronger. Now, both of them were competing with Combat Weapons, and with that, Jiang Chen had the upper hand.
"Heavenly Halberd, slash!"
Wu Cong's black hair was dancing in the wind. He suddenly shouted out loudly, then he swung the silver white halberd in his hand, unleashing a tremendous amount of energy. It was extremely powerful, and it transformed into a huge net made of energy, trying to trap Jiang Chen within it. Furthermore, the silver halberd was extremely sharp, and it struck down with an incredible momentum.
"I'll let you witness the true power of the Heavenly Saint Sword!"
With the Heavenly Saint Sword in hand, Jiang Chen's momentum was like a rainbow. With the Heavenly Saint Sword in hand, his confidence was simply off the charts. If he didn't have the Heavenly Saint Sword, with his current combat strength, he would at most be on par with Wu Cong. If he wanted to defeat Wu Cong, he would need to use some tricks, such as the Great Illusion Realm. However, now that he had the Heavenly Saint Sword, he was confident that he could defeat Wu Cong head-on.
Jiang Chen was enraged. He raised the Heavenly Saint Sword high up in the air. The Heavenly Saint Sword let out a shrill cry that shook the surrounding, and a rainbow-like sword Qi shot up into the sky.
Shua!
The Sword Qi was like a dragon. Jiang Chen slashed out a sword without any fancy moves. His sword did not have any complicated sword moves. It was just an extremely simple sword, but it contained Jiang Chen's own sword will. It was fast and fierce.
Rumble …
The Heavenly Saint Sword and Wu Cong's Heavenly Astral Halberd collided with each other. The sharp Heavenly Saint Sword was truly invincible, it forcefully tore the energy net created by the Heavenly Astral Halberd in half. After that, the two Perfect-Ranked Combat Weapons collided with each other in the most violent manner.
Clang!
A huge amount of sparks were produced, and a shocking scene appeared. Just like the previous Combat Weapon, the powerful silver halberd was destroyed in half by the Heavenly Saint Sword's attack.
Tap tap tap …
Wu Cong staggered back a dozen steps before he could stabilize his body. He stared at the halberd in his hand with eyes wide open. The shock in his heart had reached a point where he couldn't even describe it.
"No, this is absolutely impossible!"
It was as if Wu Cong had just witnessed the most frightening thing in the world. The silver halberd in his hand was given to him by his father when he broke through to the Combat Soul realm. Among all the Perfect-Ranked Combat Weapons, it was considered one of the best, and its sharpness was unstoppable. He never thought that it would be destroyed today. This was simply unimaginable.
"Bastard, how dare you destroy my halberd?!"
Wu Cong's eyes had turned red, and he was enraged like a lion who had just lost its cub. This halberd was his most precious possession, and it could be said to be the most precious part of his life. Furthermore, the Tiangang Halberd Combat Skill he was cultivating was perfectly compatible with this halberd. But now, it was destroyed by Jiang Chen, causing Wu Cong's heart to bleed.
"I'm not just going to destroy your halberd, I'm going to destroy you as well! Face your death!"
Jiang Chen unleashed an imposing manner. Sword energy rippled in the air as he turned into a beam of light and shot toward Wu Cong. The Heavenly Saint Sword was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, it had arrived in front of Wu Cong and was pointing right at his forehead.
Hua!
Right at this moment, the crowd once again burst into an uproar. Everyone were so shocked that their souls almost left their bodies. It looked like Jiang Chen was going to kill Wu Cong, and this was too daring! He even dared to kill a prince of the Martial Saint Dynasty! This was no different from making the entire Martial Saint Dynasty his enemy!
This was too ruthless! He was simply a madman! In the Eastern Continent, offending the Myriad Sword Sect and Shangguan Clan was already a sign of destruction, and if a man offended the Martial Saint Dynasty as well, he was simply courting death!
"Windless Waves!"
Wu Cong was shocked. He could sense a great danger from the longsword in Jiang Chen's hand. What kind of divine weapon was this? Its power was comparable to a King Weapon!
Slash!
It was useless. No matter how powerful a combat skill was, it was useless in front of the Heavenly Saint Sword. With just a single strike, Jiang Chen shattered the Windless Waves created by Wu Cong, then he thrust his longsword forward like a poisonous dragon.
Puchi!
A puchi sound was heard. This sound meant death. However, Wu Cong was a powerful cultivator, and he managed to avoid being hit in his vital spots. Therefore, Jiang Chen's longsword only managed to stab into Wu Cong's shoulder.
"You dare hurt me?!"
Wu Cong glared at Jiang Chen angrily. His body swayed, and he was knocked back dozens of meters. A stream of blood shot out from his shoulder.
"So what if I hurt you? I'm going to kill you!"
Jiang Chen said with a sneer on his face.
"I'm a prince of the Martial Saint Dynasty, and my father is the Tenth Emperor. How dare you kill me? What a joke!"
Wu Cong sneered. There wasn't a single trace of fear on his face. With his status, who would dare to kill him in the Eastern Continent? However, Wu Cong was still feeling extremely gloomy. Today, he had completely humiliated himself, and Jiang Chen's strength was truly frightening.
"Too bad, you won't have the chance to laugh anymore."
Jiang Chen was merciless. He swung the Heavenly Saint Sword once again. It seemed like he was determined to kill Wu Cong this time.
"Stop!"
Right at this moment, a loud shout suddenly sounded out. A powerful force suddenly appeared from the side and collided with the Heavenly Saint Sword, causing Jiang Chen's Heavenly Saint Sword to miss its target.
A figure suddenly appeared in front of Wu Cong, blocking Jiang Chen's attack. It was none other than Wu Lang.
"Brother Jiang, give me some face, don't kill him."
Wu Lang said.
At this moment, Wu Cong's face had turned pale, and his previous arrogance had disappeared. Jiang Chen's actions had told him that his status as a prince was completely useless against Jiang Chen. If it wasn't for Wu Lang's timely intervention, Wu Cong would have been killed by that frightening sword.
Jiang Chen held the sword horizontally in front of his chest. His gaze fell onto Wu Lang, and a slight frown appeared on his face. Wu Cong had tried to kill him time and time again, and if he didn't kill him now, he would definitely become a huge threat in the future.
"Brother Jiang, listen to me, you can't kill Wu Cong. His status is different, and he came here on behalf of the Martial Saint Dynasty. If you kill him, you will become the enemy of the entire Martial Saint Dynasty. Brother Jiang, you can't do anything reckless."
Wu Lang's voice was transmitted into Jiang Chen's ears using his Divine Sense.
Jiang Chen didn't say a word, but the sword in his hand began to slowly lower. Wu Lang's words were very clear. Jiang Chen couldn't kill Wu Cong right now. After all, he wasn't alone; he had his family, his brothers, and his sect behind him. With his current strength, he was far from being able to fight the Martial Saint Dynasty. If he killed Wu Cong today, he would no longer have a place to stand in the entire Eastern Continent, and he would even implicate the people around him.
From the previous situation, it wasn't hard to tell that the relationship between Wu Lang and Wu Cong wasn't good. Wu Lang's action of protecting Wu Cong was actually to protect Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen could see through Wu Lang's good intention.
"Haha, I knew you wouldn't dare kill me …"
Wu Cong burst into laughter once again when he saw Jiang Chen's reaction.
"Shut up!"
Wu Lang shouted at the top of his lungs. Even the surrounding people felt that Wu Cong was an idiot. How could he not know what kind of person Jiang Chen was? He was a madman! Now that Jiang Chen was hesitating to kill you, you still dared to add fuel to the fire? If you offended Jiang Chen, he would just kill you with his sword, and you would die in vain!
"Wu Cong, Brother Jiang has spared your life. Now, get the hell out of here!"
After saying that, Wu Lang grabbed Wu Cong's shoulder and leapt into the air, flying far away.
"Brother Jiang, once you're done with your trivial matters, come find me at the Martial Palace."
Wu Lang's words were transmitted into Jiang Chen's ears using his Divine Sense once again.
Jiang Chen let out a long sigh. In the end, he gave up on chasing after Wu Cong and slowly sheathed the Heavenly Saint Sword. Putting aside everything else, he had to give Wu Lang some face. Wu Lang had asked him to go to the Martial Palace as soon as possible for Jiang Chen's sake.
What Jiang Chen had done today had completely offended the Myriad Sword Sect and Shangguan Clan. Not long after, he would have to face the wrath of these two superpowers. Only by entering the Martial Palace would he be safe.
This was also the reason why Wu Lang didn't allow him to kill Wu Cong. If he hurt Wu Cong, the Martial Saint Dynasty might be enraged, but with Wu Jiu's status, he might be able to protect Jiang Chen. However, if Jiang Chen killed Wu Cong, even Wu Jiu wouldn't be able to protect him.
Therefore, although Jiang Chen didn't want to let Wu Cong go today, he had no choice but to do it.
Rumble …
On the other side, three men and a dog were still fighting with Shangguan Yilong. With a leap, Jiang Chen arrived in front of Shangguan Yilong.
"Jiang Chen, don't … don't kill me!"
When he saw Jiang Chen, Shangguan Yilong felt his throat go dry, and his heartbeat doubled. He had never been so scared before. He had clearly witnessed the fight between Jiang Chen and Wu Cong. Even Wu Cong wasn't Jiang Chen's match, and was nearly killed, let alone him.
"Hmph!"
Jiang Chen coldly harrumphed. Without saying anything, he raised his hand and unleashed the True Dragon Palm. A gigantic blood red dragon claw tightly trapped Shangguan Yilong.
"I've killed so many people from your Shangguan Clan, do you really think I'll let you go?"
Jiang Chen had a cold expression on his face. With the True Dragon Palm pressing down, Shangguan Yilong let out a blood-curdling scream, and was crushed into a blood mist. He died on the spot.
"Let's go."
Jiang Chen waved his hand at the trio, then he flew far away and disappeared from their sight.
