Everyone was shocked, even Jiang Chen. He never expected that the third opponent would be Wu Ningzhu. Back in the Dancing Sun City, he could be considered as Wu Ningzhu's savior. That day, when he hid his identity and left in a low-profile manner, Jiang Chen never thought that he would have any contact with Wu Ningzhu again. He didn't even care about the battle between the Profound River Palace and the Demon King Palace. He was just waiting for the Nangong family's matter to settle, then he would return to the Eastern Continent. After all, he was just a passerby in the Southern Continent.
Unfortunately, God's plans superseded his own. Today, he met Wu Ningzhu again, the famous number one genius of the Southern Continent. With Wu Ningzhu's eyesight, as long as he fought, she would definitely be able to see through his identity. However, if he didn't fight, no one from the Nangong family would be a match for Wu Ningzhu.
This was God's will!
"How could it be Wu Ningzhu? It's over, the Nangong family has lost all hope."
Nangong Yunfan's expression darkened. As the family leader of the Nangong family, he knew better than anyone else how frightening Wu Ningzhu was. This peerless genius of the Profound River Palace had fully matured, and someone like Tu Yi was no match for her.
"Sigh! If it's the Profound River Palace's Holy Maiden, there's basically no need for us to fight the third match. With my strength, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand more than ten strikes from her. "
Tu Yi sighed. Although he had a powerful cultivation base, he knew his own limits. He knew the gap between him and Wu Ningzhu, and judging from the current situation, the Nangong family was bound to lose.
"Dad, Elder Tu, it doesn't matter. Let Jiang Chen fight. Only Jiang Chen has a chance of defeating Wu Ningzhu."
Nangong Wentian said. He had blind confidence in Jiang Chen. Anyone who understood Jiang Chen would also have blind confidence in him.
Furthermore, what happened in the Dancing Sun City not long ago, where a young man in white faced Heavenly Tribulation in front of everyone and killed three great guardians of the Demon King Palace had spread across the entire Southern Continent. Therefore, the Nangong family wasn't surprised by this. However, Nangong Wentian had been in secluded cultivation recently, so he hadn't heard about this. If not, he would have known that the young man in white was Jiang Chen. If there was someone in this world who could attract Heavenly Tribulation at the Combat Soul realm, it would be Jiang Chen.
Nangong Yunfan, Tu Yi, and the others all remained silent. Asking an Early Combat Soul warrior to fight Wu Ningzhu was simply a joke. His opponent was Wu Ningzhu, the number one genius of the Profound River Palace, and no ordinary Late Combat Soul warrior could compare with her. No matter how much of a genius Jiang Chen was, his talent was at most on par with Wu Ningzhu's. But, there was a huge gap between their cultivation bases, and there was no way he could overcome this gap.
"Wentian, our opponent is Wu Ningzhu. Although nephew Jiang Chen has some abilities, there is no way he can be a match for Wu Ningzhu."
Nangong Yunfan shook his head.
"Yunfan, have you finished your discussion? Let's not waste any more time, I really want to know what kind of helper you've found to fight against the Profound River Palace's holy maiden."
On the opposite side, Nangong Yunzheng said with a loud voice. All the people from his family had bright smiles on their faces. There was basically nothing that could be compared to this battle, there was no one in the Nangong family who could fight against Wu Ningzhu.
"Chief Nangong, I don't have much time."
Wu Ningzhu said. Her voice was like the sound of nature, but no one from the Nangong family was in the mood to enjoy it.
"Dad, let Jiang Chen fight, unless you can find someone more suitable."
Nangong Wentian became anxious as well.
Nangong Yunfan and Tu Yi looked at each other, then both of them sighed. Finally, they threw their glances at Jiang Chen.
"Nephew Jiang Chen, we'll be relying on you for this last fight. If you're not a match for Wu Ningzhu, don't force yourself. Safety first."
Nangong Yunfan said.
"Don't worry, uncle, Jiang Chen knows what he's doing."
Jiang Chen bowed toward Nangong Yunfan.
"Little Chenzi, I believe in you."
Nangong Wentian patted Jiang Chen's shoulder. He would only be relieved if Jiang Chen fought in the third fight.
Jiang Chen nodded, then with a sway of his body, he jumped onto the fighting stage and stood opposite of Wu Ningzhu.
"Wentian, can you do it?"
Liang Zhui couldn't help but ask.
"Don't worry, I can't do it without him."
Nangong Wentian said confidently.
Nangong Wentian's confidence was the reason why Nangong Yunfan and Tu Yi decided to let Jiang Chen fight. They didn't believe in Jiang Chen, but they believed that Nangong Wentian wouldn't harm their family. Besides, apart from Tu Yi, they couldn't find anyone else to help them. With Tu Yi's strength, it wouldn't make any difference if he fought against Wu Ningzhu. Letting Jiang Chen fight was like trying to save a dead horse.
"Who is this guy? I've never seen him before. Why did Nangong Yunfan find such a helper? "
A man from Nangong Yunzheng's group looked at Jiang Chen on the fighting stage and said with a surprised expression.
"This guy is only an Early Combat Soul warrior. What kind of joke is Nangong Yunfan trying to pull? If he's going to give up, he should just admit defeat. There's no need to find someone like this, it's disrespectful to the Holy Maiden."
Nangong Yunzheng nearly burst out laughing. He had expected Tu Yi to fight in the third fight, but a young man he had never seen before had suddenly appeared. What was going on? Did Nangong Yunfan really think an Early Combat Soul young man could defeat the Profound River Palace's Holy Maiden? This was ridiculous!
Not only them, even the members of the Nangong Family were shocked. Although they didn't have much hope for the third match after seeing Wu Ningzhu, they still felt that it was a joke when they saw a young man on the fighting stage.
"No way, who is this guy? Why is he representing the Nangong family in the third fight? Can he really do it? His opponent is Wu Ningzhu!"
"He's someone young master brought back, and I heard he's a friend of the young master. Don't tell me he's a helper hired by the young master?"
"Helper? This is ridiculous! I'm afraid Wu Ningzhu could crush him to death with just one finger! Sigh! Looks like the Nangong family has given up. Even if he has given up, he can't just find someone like this to fight in the third fight. This is simply damaging the image of the Nangong family! Even if Elder Tu Yi loses in the end, it'll still be an honorable defeat! "
"Let's wait and see. Since the Nangong family has asked this guy to fight in the third fight, perhaps he really does have some powerful abilities."
The people from the Nangong family became restless. For all of them, Jiang Chen was a stranger. They had never heard of this young man before. They knew he was just a friend young master brought back, and he was only a Combat Soul warrior. How could he be qualified to fight Wu Ningzhu?
At this moment, the scene on the battle stage was completely different. After Jiang Chen appeared, Wu Ningzhu's eyes that were as bright as the stars immediately fell on his body. After that, she started sizing him up.
"Miss Wu, looks like you've fully recovered from your injuries."
Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face.
Hearing this, Wu Ningzhu's expression instantly changed. She immediately confirmed Jiang Chen's identity.
"It's you?"
Wu Ningzhu's voice was filled with shock. Her beautiful eyes were staring at Jiang Chen's face. It was her biggest regret that she wasn't able to see this young man's face that day. Now that she had met him, she really didn't expect him to be so handsome.
"That's right, it's me."
Jiang Chen nodded his head. At this point, there was no need for him to hide his identity anymore. With Wu Ningzhu's eyesight, she should be able to recognize him at first glance.
"Ningzhu thanks young master for saving my life that day. I never thought I'd be able to meet young master again."
Wu Ningzhu slightly bowed toward Jiang Chen, expressing her gratitude for what he had done that day. She was very clear about what happened that day. The Dancing Sun City had been completely locked down, and if it wasn't for this young man in front of her, the entire city would have been destroyed. Her father and family would have been killed by those beasts, and she herself would have been captured by the Demon King Palace as well. Even if she didn't die, she would definitely be humiliated.
Therefore, no matter how arrogant Wu Ningzhu was, she would never forget Jiang Chen's kindness. Ever since that day, his figure had been deeply imprinted in her heart.
Wu Ningzhu's voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for everyone to hear.
"What's going on? Why is Wu Ningzhu thanking him? Why is she being so polite to him? "
"Wu Ningzhu wants to thank him for saving her life? I remember now! Dozens of days ago, when the Demon King Palace attacked the Dancing Sun City, a young man dressed in white appeared out of nowhere and faced Heavenly Tribulation in the city. He killed three guardians of the Demon King Palace in a row! So it was him!"
"Oh heavens, it's him! The hero that the Profound River Palace has been searching for all this time is actually in the Nangong family! We were really blind before this! He's able to kill the guardians of the Demon King Palace and attract Heavenly Tribulation; he's an incredible monster!"
… …
Everyone became excited. Obviously, they had all recalled what had happened in the Dancing Sun City not long ago. When they looked at the young man's clothes, they realized that he was exactly the same as the rumors said. An existence who could attract Heavenly Tribulation at the Combat Soul realm; he was a peerless monster!
"Haha, so it's nephew Jiang Chen! I'm such an old fool, I didn't expect this! Amazing, truly amazing! With nephew Jiang Chen's help, the Nangong family will definitely be safe!"
Nangong Yunfan suddenly burst into laughter.
"I never thought this would happen! That peerless monster has been hiding in our Nangong family all this time! It looks like we've all neglected him! This is a true genius! Wu Ningzhu owes Jiang Chen a favor, and today's battle is really beneficial to us!"
Tu Yi suddenly felt relaxed, and the way he looked at Jiang Chen had become serious. Liang Zhui and all the upper echelons of the Nangong family were looking at Jiang Chen with different expressions. Although they didn't experience what happened in the Dancing Sun City, they had heard a lot about it. Someone was facing Heavenly Tribulation at the Combat Soul realm, and it was impossible for them not to know about it.
"Dad, what are you talking about? How did Little Chenzi know Wu Ningzhu? "
Nangong Wentian was puzzled.
