Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate Chapter 102: Jiang Chen’s Bold Move

Using Ye Fan’s information panel, Jiang Chen observed that, during this round in the underground ruins, Ye Fan’s Heavenly Fate Value had dropped by two thousand seven hundred points. With just an extra one thousand five hundred points, he would have the power to end Ye Fan’s life.

’He needs to be taken care of today. I can’t allow him to exit the Cave Heaven Secret Realm alive; it would interfere with my plans later on.’ With these thoughts racing through his mind, Jiang Chen stepped forward, his right hand gripping his Shadowblade Sword and his left hand held behind his back.

This single step made Ye Fan’s heart seize up with fear!

"Hehe," a cold smirk played on Jiang Chen’s lips. With a voice full of scorn, he said, "Look at how terrified you are! You never thought this mont would co when you murdered my parents, did you?"

As soon as Jiang Chen spoke, gasps echoed from the injured disciples of the Starry Abyss Sect, Floating Spirit Sect, Ice Heart School, and Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain who were observing the standoff from a distance.

"What the hell! Ye Fan actually killed Junior Brother Jiang Chen’s parents!" Nie Wei from the Starry Abyss Sect blurted out in shock, his words echoing the thoughts of everyone present. It had never crossed their minds that this was the cause of the feud between Jiang Chen and Ye Fan.

Yet, this startling disclosure illuminated a detail that had puzzled observant individuals like Duan Ziming, Miao Xiaorui, and Mu Tao; the degree of animosity Jiang Chen and Ye Fan showed towards each other was too intense for a re dispute over treasures in the underground ruins.

Having achieved his goal with these carefully chosen words and not wanting to give Ye Fan, who was clearly attempting to defend himself, any opportunity to speak, Jiang Chen declared, still with a cold, mocking tone, "But don’t shit yourself just yet! Even though I’m itching to wipe you out right here and now, I don’t think that would fully satisfy the rage in my heart."

Ye Fan, fists clenched and boiling with indignation from the public embarrassnt, asked in alarm, "What are you planning to do?"

"It’s straightforward," Jiang Chen responded, with an air of arrogance, "I understand people like you. You’d think even in defeat that it was because I had an advantage with my various Heavenly Origin-level treasures. So, let’s strike a deal, an honorable duel!"

He paused, allowing his proposal to sink in, then added, "I’ll put aside my Black Crystal Sky Piercing Shuttle and Carefree Heavenly Extre Robe, and only use the Shadowblade Sword. If you manage to defeat , I’ll let you go free!"

As soon as Jiang Chen laid out his bold proposal, the crowd of spectators, whether from the Starry Abyss Sect, the Floating Spirit Sect, the Ice Heart School, or the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain, looked at Jiang Chen in astonishnt, puzzled by his reasoning. Almost unanimously, they thought:

Seriously, this is the person who killed your parents! What are you thinking, offering him a chance? Why not just take Ye Fan down imdiately?

However, unknown to the onlookers, Jiang Chen’s desire to kill Ye Fan was deeper than anyone there could fathom. But the situation didn’t allow for a straightforward approach. He was forced to create scenarios to slowly diminish Ye Fan’s Heavenly Fate Value.

At that mont, upon hearing Jiang Chen’s declaration, Ye Fan’s eyes narrowed. A spark of hope appeared to break through his despair as he asked, eager to confirm he hadn’t misunderstood, "Do you really an that?"

Inwardly, he sneered, ’Hmph, in the end, one can’t change their true nature!’

Ye Fan had faced and eliminated many arrogant and self-centered young masters before. Now, it seed Jiang Chen in front of him was just another one of those egotistical fools. Despite having a clear advantage, he was proposing a so-called ’fair’ duel!

In that case, Ye Fan decided he wouldn’t hold back. After all, he had recently used the Wordless Heavenly Jade to draw so qi and blood energy from the Extre Wind Splitting Skywolf.

To his excitent, this qi and blood energy was extraordinary. It was so powerful that it would enable him to master a new Heavenly Origin-level cultivation thod to the Perfect-level!

Just then, Jiang Chen confird, "Absolutely, it is!" a smirk appearing on his face, conveying the impression of a cat playing with a mouse that has no escape. With that, he handed over the Black Crystal Sky Piercing Shuttle and the Carefree Heavenly Extre Robe to Duan Ziming.

However, internally, he sneered with contempt. Dealing with the protagonist clearly required cunning tactics, and to reduce the risk of Heavenly Fate stepping in to assist its chosen one, he had to lower the difficulty for Ye Fan, offering him a glimpse of a way out of his dangerous situation.

However, if things took an unexpected turn and the situation spiraled out of control, Jiang Chen wouldn’t hesitate to break the agreent, even at the cost of his reputation.

Although he had stated he wouldn’t use the Black Crystal Sky Piercing Shuttle and the Carefree Heavenly Extre Robe, this didn’t an he couldn’t tap into his accumulated Villain Value, which was substantial enough for him to obtain at least one Heavenly Origin-level treasure. This was the bedrock of his unwavering confidence.

Additionally, another source of his confidence was his cultivation base, which was on the verge of a breakthrough at any mont.

"Very well!" Ye Fan stated coldly, his confidence evidently restored as he challenged, "If that’s the case, then let’s fight and see who cos out on top, who lives and who dies!"

Instantly, Ye Fan produced a pill and swallowed it, all the while thodically moving back towards the center of the underground palace. To an outsider, it appeared as though he was utilizing the pill’s dicinal properties to heal his wounds.

However, in reality, he was employing the Wordless Heavenly Jade to assimilate a new cultivation thod of the Heavenly Origin rank—a self-damaging, power-boosting secret art from the repertoire left by the Cave Heaven Secret Realm’s previous master, nad the Life Origin Draining Art.

When mastered to the Perfect-level, the Life Origin Draining Art could temporarily boost his combat abilities to the Early-stage Heavenly Origin realm. Even if this enhancent lasted for only a brief mont, he planned to use that window of opportunity to strike down Jiang Chen!

Out of the blue, Mu Tao, the leading disciple of the Floating Spirit Sect, her pretty face marked by concern, proposed, "Jiang Chen, why don’t we join forces? This way, we can avoid the unnecessary dangers of a drawn-out fight."

Upon hearing her suggestion, Miao Xiaorui, Duan Ziming, and the other disciples from the Starry Abyss Sect, the Floating Spirit Sect, and the Ice Heart School all turned their attention to Jiang Chen simultaneously. They were ready to lend their support if he agreed.

anwhile, the disciples from the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain kept their silence, inwardly criticizing Mu Tao for her interjection. Why would they assist this foolish adversary when he seed intent on his own downfall?

Without turning around, Jiang Chen replied softly, "I appreciate the offer. But Ye Fan’s end will co by my hand alone today."

"Anyone who interferes will make an enemy of , Jiang Chen!" he declared, a trace of murderous intent emanating from him as he spoke. Jiang Chen was determined to prevent anyone from introducing unpredicted elents into his carefully laid plans, which is why he underscored his seriousness.

After Jiang Chen’s firm declaration, Mu Tao, Miao Xiaorui, Duan Ziming, and the rest weren’t offended; instead, they exchanged glances, feeling a bit puzzled. They realized they had no choice but to observe from the sidelines and wait to see how the situation would develop.

At that point, Jiang Chen and Ye Fan were facing each other at the heart of the battlefield, standing only fifty ters apart.

"Are you ready?" Jiang Chen’s gaze fixed on Ye Fan, his expression one of scorn, as though he were looking at a trivial bug.

"Ready..." Ye Fan muttered, pausing for a mont before his eyes ignited with rage and he shouted, "to END YOU!" In the next instant, a formidable aura of the Heavenly Origin realm burst forth from him with overwhelming force, and he charged straight at Jiang Chen!

This abrupt shift caught the group of spectators completely off guard, leaving them wide-eyed with astonishnt. Among all the outcos they had imagined, Ye Fan displaying the combat capabilities of the Heavenly Origin realm hadn’t crossed their minds!

How could it? To them, this was a legendary and seemingly unreachable level of power!

"No!" The disciples from the Starry Abyss Sect, the Floating Spirit Sect, and the Ice Heart School were all seized by terror, their hearts overwheld with intense regret!

Without the protection of the Carefree Heavenly Extre Robe and the Black Crystal Sky Piercing Shuttle, how could Jiang Chen possibly defend himself? All they could do was watch in despair as Jiang Chen struggled to raise his hand in an attempt to defend.

In contrast, the mbers of the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain, their expressions shifting from shock to malicious delight, trembled with eagerness, barely able to contain their anticipation of seeing Jiang Chen et a grim end.
