Looking at their actions, Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with a cold glint.
These fellows really came and went as they pleased, coming and going as they pleased.
Yang Kangning and the others were enraged as they watched from the side.
It was obvious that they were infuriated by the actions of the people from Shang Chi.
In fact, some of them even wanted to step in and stop them.
However, in the end, they could only look at Xiao Chen sullenly.
The strength that Shang Chi and Shang Da had displayed earlier on was way too strong. It wasn't something that they could deal with at all.
Xiao Chen noticed their expressions but did not say anything.
Shang Chi and Shang Da did have some tricks up their sleeves. Not only that, their strength and cultivation states were strong enough. It wouldn't be easy to keep them here.
Furthermore, Xiao Chen had a vague feeling that these two fellas were just testing him. They would definitely have some other moves against him later on.
Therefore, he didn't want to expose all his trump cards just to keep them here.
"Let's go back first." It was only after Shang Chi and Shang Da had left with the people from the Ancient Race that Xiao Chen spoke up.
Yang Kangning and the others followed behind Xiao Chen in silence.
On the way back, Xiao Chen thought for a moment before asking them, "Do you guys feel aggrieved?"
Yang Kangning and the others were stunned for a moment. However, they shook their heads and said, "Master, you don't have to care about our feelings. We're already used to it."
"Used to it?" This time around, it was Xiao Chen's turn to be surprised.
"Yes. Such provocations have happened frequently in the past as well. In the end, it was always left unsettled. We couldn't do anything to them. Therefore, we're already used to it," Yang Kangning replied respectfully.
Xiao Chen went silent for a moment before smiling, "Don't worry. It won't be long before they pay the price for today's incident."
Yang Kangning and the other guards smiled bitterly when they heard this, but they didn't say anything. Obviously, they didn't take Xiao Chen's words seriously and only took it as a form of comfort.
Xiao Chen did not explain anything. Based on the information he had gathered, he already knew that the previous Prefecture Master was rather mediocre in terms of strength. He basically did not have the upper hand when he fought against the Ancient Race. Usually, he was more conservative in his style. It was almost as if he did not seek to make any mistakes, but rather to avoid making any mistakes. That was why Yang Kangning and the others were so used to it.
However, Xiao Chen would not learn from the previous Manor Head.
Firstly, Xiao Chen had the intention to make a great contribution in the first place. Coupled with the appearance of Shang Chi and Shang Da just now and their deliberate actions against him, it made Xiao Chen feel that they definitely had other actions against him. It was even very likely that it was some sort of conspiracy.
Therefore, Xiao Chen felt that it was impossible for him to spend his time peacefully like the previous Manor Head.
Moreover, from the situation just now, Xiao Chen could also be sure that they were from the same clan as Shang Qi.
This made Xiao Chen very vigilant.
After all, Pei Yuanqing and the others had been able to cooperate with Shang Qi previously and frame him.
Perhaps there was some secret relationship between the two of them that no one knew about.
Moreover, when he had just taken up his post here, there were also people from the Shang Clan from the neighboring Snow Wave Prefecture.
Combined with the situation just now, Xiao Chen felt that the other party might have specially come to deal with him.
Therefore, Xiao Chen was still rather cautious. He did not act impulsively just now and use all his trump cards.
Shang Chi and Shang Zhi were already so strong. As the Prefecture Master, Shang Zhi would definitely be even more powerful. However, he did not appear today and only let Shang Chi and Shang Zhi test him. This fellow probably wanted to deal with him after the test.
Naturally, Xiao Chen had to be more vigilant.
After returning, Xiao Chen asked Yang Kangning and the others to go about their own business, while he went into his own room.
The fight with Shang Chi and Shang Da just now had some impact on Xiao Chen.
"Previously, I felt that it was very easy to deal with those ordinary Celestial Generals. But to deal with powerhouses like Shang Chi and Shang Da who relied on themselves to break through to the Celestial Generals is really very passive." Xiao Chen recalled the situation of the fight just now and felt that it was necessary for him to break through to the Celestial General Realm.
Although he was strong enough to make the two of them helpless even though there was a big difference in their cultivation level, it was far from enough for Xiao Chen. After all, it was very likely that the other party had specially come to deal with him. If he could only defend passively, sooner or later, something bad would happen.
Moreover, Xiao Chen thought about it carefully and felt that his foundation was sufficient. Now, he had already mastered a profound skill, and his other aspects had almost reached the peak of the Heaven Celestial Stage!
It was indeed time for him to break through.
After thinking about it again and again and confirming that he had not missed anything, Xiao Chen decided to break through immediately.
For Xiao Chen, it was actually not difficult to break through to the Celestial General Realm. He only needed to do a few days of secluded meditation.
After all, for people like them who were at the peak of the Ninth Heaven Celestial Stage, they usually deliberately suppressed their cultivation. Once they focused on breaking through, there would be no trouble or bottlenecks.
After greeting Yang Kangning and the others and instructing them not to disturb him in the next few days unless there was something important, Xiao Chen began to break through.
The process of breaking through was indeed smooth. After all, not only did he simply comprehend some of the Power of Law, but he also mastered a profound skill.
His cultivation was also on the verge of breaking through under the usual suppression. All he needed was a little initiative, and he would naturally break through when the conditions were right.
And with the support of sufficient resources, Xiao Chen broke through to the Third Heaven of the Celestial General Realm as soon as he broke through.
"The breakthrough of a major realm is really a great improvement!" After breaking through, Xiao Chen felt that his overall strength was now several times stronger than before.
Although he did not immediately perform it to verify it, Xiao Chen felt that if he performed the combo of the Demon Sky Sword Technique at this moment, even if his overall comprehension of the combo remained at the current level, its power would still be three to five times stronger.
This was a very abnormal improvement.
"If I fight with Shang Chi and Shang Da now, the power of the Demon Sky Sword Technique's combo is enough to injure them." Xiao Chen's eyes flickered.
However, although it was a great improvement, Xiao Chen still felt that it was not enough.
After all, the information obtained by Yang Kangning was vague about Shang Zhi's specific situation. It only said that Shang Zhi was very strong.
This guy really came prepared with a conspiracy. It was not very safe to rely on the Demon Sky Sword Technique's combo alone.
Although the power of this sword technique's combo was far more than that, it would be very difficult for Xiao Chen to improve further after reaching the Small Success Realm without more resonance.
Moreover, now that he had broken through, Xiao Chen felt that he could try to master the 21st Clan.
