"My name is Tan Lang. I didn't have the time to thank you for saving my life that day, and I never thought we would meet again. This is great!"
Tan Lang was extremely happy. He was dragged into the conflict of the Southern Continent for no reason, and it could be said that he was extremely unlucky. No matter how much of a genius he was, he was still no match for Lord Nether. If not for Jiang Chen's help, he would have died in the Southern Continent by now.
"Kid, since you're from the Divine Continent, why were you captured by the Demon King Palace when you arrived in the Southern Continent?"
Da Huang Dog asked Tan Lang while gnawing on the leg of an unknown demon beast. "That day, I went out for training, but I didn't expect to be dragged to the exit by luck.
"That day, when I went out to train, I didn't expect to enter a spatial wormhole and get sucked into the spatial turbulence. I thought I was done for, but I didn't expect to be lucky enough to drift to the exit. After I came out, I arrived at the Southern Continent. Coincidentally, I ran into the Demon King Palace who was trying to capture the human geniuses of the Southern Continent, so I was captured. If it weren't for benefactor's help that day, Tan Lang would have been buried in the Southern Continent. After that battle, with the help of an expert like benefactor, the Demon King Palace would definitely be destroyed. I didn't want to participate in the disputes of the Southern Continent, so I left immediately.
Tan Lang told Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog what had happened that day. Who would have thought that the genius he saved that day was actually from the Divine Continent, and they had bumped into each other as soon as he arrived in the Divine Continent. Initially, Jiang Chen thought that there would be some conflict between him and Tan Lang, but now, it seemed like there wouldn't be any conflict even if he wanted to.
"Your luck is really too good."
Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face. What he said wasn't false at all. Only one in a thousand people could come out alive after entering the Dimensional Turbulence, and people like Tan Lang who managed to find the exit after drifting for a short period of time were even rarer. Furthermore, after Tan Lang was captured by the Demon King Palace, he was saved by Jiang Chen. Now, he had successfully broken through to the Combat King realm, and it could be said that he was lucky. From this, it could be seen that Tan Lang was a man who possessed a certain amount of luck.
"Haha, I'm so happy today. Manager, I'll book this place today. Bring out the best dishes and wine."
Tan Lang burst into laughter as he sat down in front of Jiang Chen. After carefully examining Jiang Chen, he discovered that Jiang Chen's aura was much stronger than when he killed King Nether. This really surprised him. A Combat Soul warrior with such incredible combat strength really shocked him. Even the Shura Temple didn't have such a monstrous genius.
"I left in a hurry that day, so I didn't know your name."
Tan Lang asked.
"My name is Jiang Chen."
Jiang Chen smiled as he clinked glasses with Tan Lang. His first impression of Tan Lang was pretty good, as he didn't put on any airs. As a genius from the Shura Temple, Jiang Chen was able to bow and greet him in front of so many people. This was not something an ordinary man could do, even though Jiang Chen had saved Tan Lang's life before. Geniuses needed face the most.
"Great! It's great to be able to meet brother Jiang here today! I'll have to do my best as a host!"
Tan Lang laughed out loud. Being able to meet Jiang Chen here today could be considered as one of the things that had been weighing on his mind. That day when Jiang Chen saved his life, after he left, he still couldn't forget that white-clothed young man.
"What are you three still standing there for? Hurry up and apologize to brother Jiang!"
Tan Lang turned around and shouted at Chang Qing and the others.
The three of them were stunned, especially Chang Qing. Half of his face was swollen, but he didn't dare to show any anger. Although he was the son of the City Governor of Hongyue City, he didn't dare to offend Tan Lang. In the vast Liang Province, a small Hongyue City was not worth mentioning at all.
The three of them had been standing at the side and listening to the conversation between Jiang Chen and Tan Lang. Naturally, they knew Jiang Chen's identity very well. They never thought that this young man who came out of nowhere would have saved Tan Lang's life. They were secretly glad that they didn't make a move against the white-clothed young man. Otherwise, even if Jiang Chen didn't hurt them, Tan Lang would still teach them a lesson.
The girl hurriedly took a step forward. She gave Jiang Chen a sweet smile and gave him a seductive look. However, in Jiang Chen's eyes, this kind of look had no lethality at all. Compared to Wu Ningzhu, the gap between this girl and Wu Ningzhu was like heaven and earth.
"I'm Xu Qing. I didn't know about the relationship between Young Master Jiang and Senior Brother Tan. There were many conflicts between us.
I hope Young Master Jiang won't take it to heart, "Xu Qing said in a gentle voice and bowed slightly at Jiang Chen.
"I'm Huo Wei. I've offended Young Master Jiang. I hope Young Master Jiang won't take it to heart."
The male disciple quickly bowed and apologized. With Tan Lang sitting there, they naturally had to perform well.
Chang Qing's face was swollen, but he still walked towards Jiang Chen. At this moment, the way he looked at Jiang Chen was completely different. When he thought about how he was the one who screamed the loudest just now, he really wanted to slap himself. This young man in front of him had the ability to save Tan Lang's life. It was enough to prove that his cultivation was very strong.
"Young Master Jiang, I was wrong."
Chang Qing lowered his head and apologized.
"Alright, alright, alright. Those who don't know are innocent. Sit down and eat with us."
Before Jiang Chen could say anything, Da Huang Dog had already swung his demonic beast's leg and begged for forgiveness.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but shake his head. All his face had been ruined by this dog. However, it wasn't easy for these three to apologize to him in a low voice, especially that Young Master of the City Lord Manor. He had a noble status and had been pampered since young. When had he ever been humble to anyone? Today, he apologized to Jiang Chen. It could be seen that Tan Lang still had a lot of weight in the eyes of these three.
The three felt as if they had been pardoned, but they didn't dare to sit together with Jiang Chen and Tan Lang. Instead, they sat at the table next to them.
"Brother Jiang, I wonder what happened to the Demon King Palace?"
Tan Lang asked curiously.
"What else? Of course, they were killed by Little Chenzi and me. The First Palace Master of the Demon King Palace, Demon King Zhanlang, a Second Grade Demon King, was killed by Little Chenzi with just three steps. "
Da Huang Dog said proudly, as if he was the one who killed Demon King Zhanlang instead of Jiang Chen. Of course, Da Huang Dog wasn't bragging. Jiang Chen did use the Azure Dragon's Five Steps to kill Demon King Zhanlang.
However, in the ears of Tan Lang, Chang Qing and the other two, it was a completely different story. Killing a Second Grade Demon King with just three steps, how freakish was that? The three of them felt a chill down their spines. Thinking back to how they were pointing their fingers at an expert who could kill a Second Grade Demon King and yelling at him, it was a typical example of courting death. The fact that they could still stand here and speak was simply a blessing to them.
In the world of cultivation, the dignity of an expert was the most inviolable thing. There weren't many rules in this world, and it was the law of the jungle. If someone was blind enough to insult a Combat King warrior, even if that Combat King warrior killed that person with just a wave of his hand, he would still die in vain.
Tan Lang was shocked as well. He only knew that Jiang Chen was able to kill a First Grade Demon King, but he never expected that Jiang Chen actually had the strength to kill a Second Grade Demon King. This couldn't be described with just the word 'terrifying', he was simply a monster among monsters.
"Brother Jiang's combat strength is amazing, it's really terrifying."
Tan Lang sighed from the bottom of his heart. Killing a Second Grade Demon King might not be a big deal, as there were plenty of people in the Shura Temple who could kill a Second Grade Demon King. However, killing a Second Grade Demon King before reaching the Combat King realm was a completely different story.
"Brother Tan, I've just arrived in the Divine Continent, and I heard that you're going to the Chaotic Ocean to fight for the position of one of the thirteen tycoons in the Shura Temple, right?"
Jiang Chen asked with a curious tone.
"That's right. The Shura Temple is one of the four major powers in the Liang Province, and the thirteen tycoons are existences that surpass the status of core disciples. They are the representatives of the Shura Temple, and there are a total of thirteen of them. Not long ago, the thirteenth tycoon went to the Chaotic Ocean, but he was killed by pirates. Because of this, the higher-ups of the Shura Temple were furious, and they issued a mission for the core disciples to go to the Chaotic Ocean to kill the pirates. Whoever can bring down the pirate's head will be promoted to the thirteenth tycoon, and from then on, his or her status will skyrocket. This is a great opportunity for me, so I'm going to the Chaotic Ocean to train myself."
While speaking, Tan Lang was paying attention to Jiang Chen's expression. He wanted to see if Jiang Chen was interested in the Chaotic Ocean. If he could get Jiang Chen's help, he would have a ninety percent chance of winning the position of tycoon.
"Are the pirates in the Chaotic Ocean very powerful?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"The Chaotic Ocean is an extremely chaotic place, where good and bad people mingle together. There are many islands with abundant resources, and the sea demons and pirates are extremely rampant there. However, the pirates don't get along well with each other, which leads to the Chaotic Ocean becoming even more chaotic. There are seven famous pirates in the Chaotic Ocean, and the one who killed the Shura Temple's tycoon was one of them. Their methods are extremely cruel, and they're not easy to deal with."
Tan Lang spoke. When he mentioned the Chaotic Ocean, his expression couldn't help but turn serious.
"Since the Chaotic Ocean is so chaotic, why didn't the Shura Temple send their experts to exterminate them? Wouldn't it be peaceful if they killed all the pirates?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"How could it be so easy? The Chaotic Ocean is extremely vast, and it's not the territory of the Shura Temple. Moreover, even if the Shura Temple killed all the pirates, the Chaotic Ocean would still exist. Not long after, new pirates would appear, and there's no way to kill them all. Since a long time ago, the chaos in the Chaotic Ocean has formed its own system, and the Shura Temple doesn't want to destroy such a place. To their disciples, the Chaotic Ocean is an extremely good training ground."
Tan Lang explained.
Jiang Chen silently nodded his head. Tan Lang's words were correct. A place like the Chaotic Ocean was impossible to calm down. Moreover, such a chaotic place was an extremely good training ground for the disciples. It would be a pity if it was destroyed.
"The Chaotic Ocean is truly a good place."
