The scene seemed to have come to a standstill, and even the air seemed to have frozen. Nangong Wenyang and Zhang Feng could sense a great fear coming from this young man in front of them. Of course, the fear they felt was different. Nangong Wenyang's fear was mixed with a pleasant surprise. After all, Jiang Chen was on his side, but Zhang Feng was different.
Zhang Feng's soul was trembling, it was a fear that came from the deepest part of his soul. With just a glance at this young man in white, he could sense the aura of death. He swore that this was the first time in his life that he had ever felt death.
He knew very well how strong Li Gai's cultivation base was. An Early Combat Soul warrior couldn't even withstand a single strike from this young man. Zhang Feng sensed that this young man in front of him was only a Peak Divine Core warrior, he hadn't even broken through to the Combat Soul realm.
However, with a Peak Divine Core cultivation base, killing an Early Combat Soul warrior was as easy as killing an ant. If they hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed it.
"You, who are you?"
Zhang Feng's voice was trembling. Obviously, he didn't have any confidence in his words. The arrogant attitude he had before had completely disappeared.
Zhang Feng was sure that he had never seen this young man before, and he had never heard of this man either. However, a genius who could easily kill a Combat Soul warrior with a Peak Divine Core cultivation base had to be someone famous. Too bad, no matter how hard Zhang Feng tried, he couldn't remember when such a monstrous genius appeared in the Southern Continent.
"Haha, old dog, do you still want to kill me?"
Nangong Wentian burst into laughter. Let alone these two Early Combat Soul old men, even if there were two Mid Combat Soul warriors here, Jiang Chen would still kill them.
"Who I am isn't important. What's important is that you've made an unforgivable mistake."
Jiang Chen shook his head and spoke with an indifferent tone. This young man had indeed made an unforgivable mistake. At least, that was what Jiang Chen thought. Jiang Chen would never forgive his enemies, especially those who had tried to kill him and his brothers.
"Good boy, this old man will remember you. I won't let today's matter rest."
Zhang Feng left behind some threatening words. After that, he turned into a trail of light and flew far away. Obviously, he had failed his mission this time. Even Nangong Yunzheng didn't expect a young genius to be by Nangong Wentian's side. Facing a situation like this, running away was his first choice. Furthermore, Zhang Feng had a feeling that even if he couldn't defeat this young man, with his Early Combat Soul cultivation base, running away shouldn't be a problem.
If a Combat Soul warrior couldn't escape the pursuit of a Divine Core warrior, then that would be ridiculous.
Unfortunately, such a nonsensical thing happened very quickly. Zhang Feng's luck was really bad because he met Jiang Chen.
"Stay here."
Just when Nangong Wenyang thought that Zhang Feng would be able to escape easily, Jiang Chen let out a light shout. Jiang Chen raised his hand and made a grabbing motion in the air. In the next moment, a one-zhang-long blood-red dragon claw abruptly descended from the sky.
The blood-colored dragon claw wasn't covered in dragon scales, and it was vivid and lifelike. It was as if a real dragon's hand had appeared, and it shook the void to the point that it emitted crackling sounds and dazzling sparks.
Bang!
The void was trembling. The True Dragon Palm had transformed into an indestructible cage, and it trapped Zhang Feng who was running away with all his might.
"What?!"
Zhang Feng cried out in shock. The frightened expression on his face had reached an indescribable level. Before he could even attack the dragon claw, he could already feel a mountain-like pressure coming from the dragon claw.
Bam!
The enormous force smashed onto Zhang Feng's body. Even with his Early Combat Soul cultivation base, there was no way he could withstand it. In an instant, he was smashed dozens of meters into the ground, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Crack crack!
The True Dragon Palm followed Zhang Feng like a shadow, and it didn't disappear at all. It completely covered Zhang Feng's body, causing his bones to produce cracking sounds, and his face to become twisted.
Right at this moment, Zhang Feng finally felt the threat of death. He had never felt death so close to him, and this was the first time he felt the true fear of death.
"No, don't kill me!"
Zhang Feng was panic-stricken, and he started begging for mercy. No one wanted to die, especially a Combat Soul warrior like Zhang Feng. It wasn't easy for him to cultivate to his current level.
Jiang Chen was a cruel and merciless man. He turned a deaf ear to Zhang Feng's pleas, then he forcefully clenched the True Dragon Palm. Following a miserable shriek, Zhang Feng's entire body was crushed into a blood mist, and he died on the spot.
After killing two men in a row, Jiang Chen had returned to his normal state. Or, he had been maintaining this state all this time. With one hand placed behind his back, a faint smile could be seen on his face, and the corner of his mouth was slightly curved upward. It was as if killing two men was just like killing two chickens, and he didn't have any change in his emotions.
"Little Chenzi, you're getting more and more powerful! Thank you so much for what you did today! If not for you, I'm afraid I would have been dead by now."
Nangong Wentian said with a teasing smile. However, the gratefulness in his voice was obvious.
Nangong Wenyang who stood next to Jiang Chen still hadn't recovered from his shock. Two Combat Soul warriors had been killed in such a simple manner, and the dangerous situation had been resolved so easily. This made Nangong Wenyang feel as if he was in a dream.
He stared at Jiang Chen who had a warm smile on his face. It was hard for him to imagine that such a handsome young man could be so ruthless when he attacked.
Nangong Wenyang was no idiot. From how Jiang Chen killed the two men in such a calm manner, he could tell that this young man in front of him, who looked like he was only 16 or 17 years old, had long since become numb to killing.
Nangong Wenyang took a deep breath, then he strode toward Jiang Chen. He cupped his fist toward Jiang Chen and said, "Wenyang failed to recognize Mount Tai, I've offended brother Jiang with my words just now, I hope brother Jiang won't take it to heart."
Nangong Wenyang felt really sorry for what Jiang Chen had done. He even had the urge to slap himself in the face. He felt like he was really blind, how could he look down on such an amazing genius? Just thinking about it made his face turn hot.
"Brother Wenyang, please don't say that, we're on the same side."
Jiang Chen patted Nangong Wenyang's shoulder.
Seeing how straightforward Jiang Chen was, a bright smile emerged on Nangong Wenyang's face. His impression of Jiang Chen had changed dramatically, and he now had a very good impression of Jiang Chen. No matter what, not only had Jiang Chen saved Nangong Wentian's life, he had also saved his own life. If not for Jiang Chen's presence, those two men would have killed him after killing Nangong Wentian, and even the white eagle from the Nangong family wouldn't have been able to escape.
However, although Jiang Chen's performance was amazing, in Nangong Wenyang's mind, he wasn't strong enough to represent the Nangong family in the third match. After all, a mighty warrior invited by Nangong Yunzheng wasn't someone a small fry like Zhang Feng could compare with.
Of course, Nangong Wenyang wasn't against the idea either, as he couldn't make the decision regarding the duel, as it was up to the higher-ups of the Nangong family to decide.
After clearing the obstacles, the three of them once again used their full speed and flew in the direction of the NanGong Family. After one day and one night, they finally returned to the NanGong Family. This time, there were no more obstacles on the way.
Nangong City!
It was a magnificent city with a circumference of over a thousand miles. Looking from the outside, Nangong City was filled with tall buildings, splendid palaces, and a magnificent atmosphere; it could easily be called the number one city in the Southern Continent.
This city wasn't called Nangong City before, but it was renamed because of the Nangong Family. In this city, the Nangong Family was the absolute ruler. To put it bluntly, a fart from the Nangong Family was enough to shake the entire city for three days.
There were many different forces in Nangong City, but all of them were under the control of the Nangong Family. As long as the Nangong Family gave the order, no one would dare to disobey them.
Outside the north gate of Nangong City, three figures landed silently. The white eagles that had been following them were nowhere to be seen. These three figures were none other than Jiang Chen and his crew.
"Little Chenzi, Nangong City isn't peaceful now. Since my first uncle separated the Nangong Family from the Nangong Family, half of Nangong City has been separated. The people and forces at the south gate are all under my first uncle's control, while the north gate is still under the control of the Nangong Family. However, as it's a sensitive time, it's better for us to keep a low profile. We'll enter the city on foot and return to the Nangong Family first."
Nangong Wentian explained.
"Hmm."
Jiang Chen nodded his head. As they were approaching the city, he could vaguely sense that something wasn't right. This magnificent city was definitely not as peaceful as it seemed to be; there must be something going on behind the scenes.
"Stop right there, you'll need to pay a fee to enter the city."
Outside the north gate, six muscular guards stood on both sides. They immediately stopped Jiang Chen and his crew after seeing them.
"Are your dog eyes blind?"
Nangong Wenyang walked forward and shouted at the leading guard. Only then did the guard clearly see the appearance of the person who had come, and he was immediately scared out of his wits, kneeling on the ground with a 'putong' sound.
"I didn't expect it to be Mr. Wenyang, my apologies."
The guard's back was covered in sweat; he was only a captain of the guards of the Nangong Family; he was nothing compared to a genius like Nangong Wenyang.
"Humph!"
Nangong Wenyang let out a cold harrumph, as he made a welcoming gesture toward Jiang Chen and Nangong Wentian, and strode into the city. The guards kneeling on the ground did not even dare to raise their heads, nor did they see Nangong Wentian. Otherwise, they would be scared to death on the spot. In Nangong City, the Young Master of the Nangong Family could do whatever he wanted.
"Little Chenzi, these are the guards of the Nangong Family. Not only is Nangong City luxurious, it's also very safe due to the protection of the Nangong Family. Those who live in Nangong City do not need to pay a fee to enter the city. Those who are not from Nangong City are required to pay a fee to enter the city."
Nangong Wentian explained to Jiang Chen; in Nangong City, the Nangong Family was the true emperor, and their words were final.
