"Patriarch Liu, you're wrong. Who here doesn't know that Xiao Chen is a new disciple of our Qinglan Holy Palace? If Patriarch Liu doesn't believe me, you can ask anyone, "Fang Qianxing said with a smile as he glanced at the gloomy Liu Chengfeng.
"If that's the case, why isn't Xiao Chen wearing the uniform of a Qinglan Holy Palace disciple? As a disciple, he must wear the uniform of a disciple in the Holy Palace, "Ding Yan said with a hint of difficulty.
The reason why Ding Yan said that was not only because he had something to do with the Liu family, but also because he was worried that Xiao Chen would turn the situation around. Seventy or eighty guards of the Liu family had been killed, and two elders and Liu Wuyou had disappeared. Ding Yan was also worried that Xiao Chen had already reached the Saint King level and was extremely powerful.
"Junior brother Xiao Chen has always been a disciple of the Qinglan Holy Palace. This is a fact," Zhao Yuxi said with a smile.
"That's right! Junior brother Xiao Chen is a disciple of our Qinglan Holy Palace! "The disciples of the Qinglan Holy Palace echoed.
"Palace Master Ding, are you afraid of losing? Junior brother Xiao Chen is a disciple of the Qinglan Holy Palace. The entire Taiyong City knows that. How could Palace Master Ding not know? " Grand Elder Meng Fei said with a smile as he glanced at Ding Yan with a strange look. This time, he was on Xiao Chen's side.
"This little girl only knows that Xiao Chen is a disciple of the Qinglan Holy Palace." At this moment, Cai Yun's seductive laughter came from the left side of the square. Her voice was pleasant to the ears and could make one's heart flutter.
Cai Yun chose to help Xiao Chen at this time because she wanted to improve the relationship between the Chamber of Commerce and Xiao Chen. To put it bluntly, it was for benefits.
Hearing this, Ding Yan's face changed slightly. His deep eyes glanced at Caiyun without leaving a trace. He was secretly angry. He didn't expect that Shengyun Chamber of Commerce would speak up for Xiao Chen. Ding Yan's face couldn't help but become slightly gloomy. He could only remain silent.
Liu Chengfeng and the other two also looked gloomy. They didn't know how to refute. Even Cai Yun had spoken up for Xiao Chen. They also knew that Xiao Chen was an honored guest of the Sacred Cloud Chamber of Commerce. Naturally, they didn't dare to offend the chamber of commerce.
Song Tianliang and Fu Hai also looked at Xiao Chen. The former frowned slightly and asked, "Is he the one who defeated Wu Biao and injured Junior Brother Yang with one palm?"
"This happened two months ago. Junior brother Wu said that he was only in the middle stage of the Holy Spirit Realm at that time, but he was already in the late stage of the Holy Spirit Realm. This person is not simple." Fu Hai said in a low voice as he looked at Xiao Chen with a serious gaze.
Seeing that Ding Yan and Liu Chengfeng were dispirited, Fang Qianxing felt proud. He shifted his gaze to Xiao Chen, who looked indifferent. Fang Qianxing smiled and said, "Xiao Chen, you will fight the third round!"
The disciples behind Fang Qianxing also looked at Xiao Chen with anticipation. Although there were Holy Kings among them, they couldn't fight because of their seniority.
"Junior Brother Xiao Chen, you must win. Otherwise, our Qinglan Holy Palace will lose a lot of face!" Zhao Yuxi said hurriedly as he was overjoyed to hear that Fang Qianxing wanted Xiao Chen to fight.
"Yes! Junior brother Xiao Chen, it's up to you! "The disciples nodded. They could only place their hopes on Xiao Chen now.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Chen became the focus of everyone again. Jiang Ming, who was seriously injured, looked extremely gloomy. He didn't feel good about it, but he didn't say anything. He didn't want Xiao Chen to lose.
"Let's fight. Let me see how strong you are!" Liu Ruoqing said to himself with a gloomy face as he glared at Xiao Chen with his cold eyes. For some reason, deep down in Liu Ruoqing's heart, there was a tinge of fear, even fear, toward Xiao Chen.
Seeing the disciples' anticipation, Xiao Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head helplessly. He said softly, "I'll do my best."
Xiao Chen didn't care about a mere Early-stage Holy King. However, he didn't show any contempt. Instead, he said modestly.
Xiao Chen slowly got up and walked to the square. He didn't leave like the others.
As Xiao Chen walked onto the square, everyone's eyes followed him to the square.
"Xiao Chen's strength is extraordinary. I'm really looking forward to it." Below the stage, Wu Changkong's face was full of anticipation as he smiled faintly.
Although he couldn't see through Xiao Chen's cultivation, Xiao Chen had gone to the Chamber of Commerce many times to buy herbs. Wu Changkong could guess a thing or two.
"Xiao Chen's calmness is extraordinary." Master Wanqian faintly smiled. Then, his expression changed as if he had sensed something. He couldn't help but glance at a certain spot in the sky.
On the square, Lu Changqing sized up Xiao Chen with his pitch-black eyes. He didn't know anything about Xiao Chen, and it was his first time seeing him. He only knew that Xiao Chen had recently slaughtered seventy to eighty guards of the Liu family.
"This guy hides his strength well. He's terrifyingly calm. I can't see any energy fluctuations coming from his body. However, I heard from Junior Brother Wu that he was only an Intermediate Holy Spirit two months ago. He should be in the Late Holy Spirit Realm now. He has battle strength that surpasses his cultivation. Xiao Chen's true strength might only be at the peak of the Late Holy Spirit Realm." Lu Changqing guessed as he sized up Xiao Chen, but he couldn't be sure.
"Does Your Excellency know how to use a sword?" Taking back his gaze, Lu Changqing asked.
Nodding slightly, Xiao Chen's face remained indifferent, not saying anything.
"Then let's compete using swords. Summon your weapon," Lu Changqing stretched out his hand and summoned a High-Rank Spirit Artifact sword, exuding a faint cold light.
"A sword?" Miao Cuiling's pretty face froze for a moment before she quickly summoned a long sword from her Storage Ring and threw it out while shouting, "Junior Brother Xiao Chen, take this!"
The long sword flew out and turned into a streak of white light, quickly passing in front of Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen quickly stretched out his hand and accurately grasped the hilt of the sword before swinging it diagonally towards the ground, giving off a majestic aura.
* Peng! *
Frowning slightly, Lu Changqing's eyes flashed fiercely as he pushed his Saint Qi and poured it into the long sword, causing it to glow with a faint white light. Lu Changqing suddenly stamped his foot on the ground and with a muffled bang, he rushed forward with his long sword and stabbed it towards Xiao Chen, his offensive fierce.
Less than five meters away, Lu Changqing arrived in the blink of an eye and stabbed his long sword towards Xiao Chen's chest.
Without any fear on his face, Xiao Chen's figure quickly moved to the left and at the same time, he swept his long sword towards Lu Changqing's abdomen.
Seeing Xiao Chen's sword sweeping towards him at such a fast speed, Lu Changqing's expression changed slightly. He stomped his feet on the ground and stopped his body from moving forward. Once again, he exerted force and his body rapidly retreated, narrowly avoiding Xiao Chen's tricky sword.
"This guy is actually defending by attacking!" Frowning slightly, Lu Changqing's heart shook. Fortunately, he had reacted quickly, otherwise, he would have suffered a big loss just now.
Just after stabilizing his figure, Lu Changqing pushed his Saint Qi again, increasing his strength and launching another attack, his speed increasing slightly as he viciously slashed his long sword towards Xiao Chen.
* Ding! *
The ferocious sword slashed down, but Xiao Chen showed no sign of fear. He raised his sword to block the attack. A crisp clang was heard, and sparks flew everywhere. The tyrannical power suddenly shook Xiao Chen and forced him to take a few steps back.
After forcing Xiao Chen back, the hearts of the Green Mist Holy Palace disciples rose sharply, their faces filled with tension and worry as they prayed in their hearts.
Secretly rejoicing, Lu Changqing pressed on, increasing his strength once again as he launched a fierce offensive.
* Ding ding ding! *
Xiao Chen's face remained indifferent. In the face of Lu Changqing's ferocious attacks, Xiao Chen was able to handle them with ease. He was not pushed back again, and instead used his strange sword moves to resist. A series of crisp sounds rang out from the square.
Before Lu Changqing increased his strength, he was able to push back Xiao Chen, but after increasing his strength, Xiao Chen was unable to do so. What's more, Lu Changqing did not use his strength at all, which shocked and confused him.
Xiao Chen was an Early Saint King, so even if he did not use his Saint Qi, his tyrannical physique was enough to compete with Lu Changqing.
Being able to compete with an Early Saint King without using his strength, this kind of tyrannical strength frightened the crowd below, all of them dumbfounded and unable to believe their eyes.
"Sure enough, he's not simple. Without using his Saint Qi, he can compete with a Saint King," Grandmaster Wan Qian's deep old eyes flashed as he praised.
"He really has hidden his strength," Cai Yun chuckled, her beautiful eyes also flashing with amazement.
"Xiao Chen must have broken through to the Saint King Realm! His cultivation speed is too terrifying! In just two months, he broke through from the Saint Spirit Intermediate Stage to the Saint King Realm! "Jiang Ming said in a daze, his mouth slightly open to express his shock.
"Without using his Saint Qi, he can compete with Lu Changqing. This is clearly the strength of a Saint King, and even stronger than Lu Changqing! How is this possible!? "In the main seat, Fang Qian Xing cried out in shock, unable to believe what he was seeing.
"How is this possible!? Two months ago, Xiao Chen was only an Intermediate Saint Spirit Intermediate Stage! It's impossible for him to break through to the Saint King Realm in just two months, "Song Tianliang also cried out in shock, his voice trembling slightly.
"His strength has already surpassed mine," Miao Cuiling said in a daze, her pretty face full of shock.
Everyone present knew very well that Xiao Chen was already a Saint King, but those who had some understanding of Xiao Chen's previous cultivation were all shocked and incredulous at this moment.
"Father and the two Elders must have been killed by Xiao Chen!" The tyrannical strength displayed by Xiao Chen made Liu Ruoqing even more certain that Xiao Chen was the murderer. His face was so gloomy that it was almost dripping water, his blood vessels almost bursting, and murderous intent erupted from his eyes.
In the square, Lu Changqing used almost all his strength to attack. His speed and strength were quite tyrannical, but they were all easily blocked by Xiao Chen. On the contrary, he felt a tingling pain in his arm. The more he fought, the more frightened he became. In the end, he had no choice but to give up the thankless close combat.
Lu Changqing decisively retreated, frowning slightly. His dignified eyes stared at Xiao Chen, and his hand holding the long sword tightened. Xiao Chen's strength was beyond his imagination.
"I didn't expect you to have broken through to the Saint King Realm and have such tyrannical strength. You can compete with me without using your Saint Qi. I really can't believe that you could achieve this in just two months. I really admire you," Lu Changqing stared at Xiao Chen with dignified eyes for a long time before he spoke.
