"Hmm?"
"Kid, you dare to make a move?"
The others quickly reacted as well, hurriedly helping the middle-aged man up from the ground, and then one after another they scolded Ji Chen.
"Who are you? How dare you attack my vassal?"
The young man referred to as Master Zheng also frowned, his gaze piercingly directed at Ji Chen.
He stood there with his hands behind his back, appearing extrely arrogant.
This person was nad Zheng Fei, a mber of the Alchemy Master Alliance, only twenty-six or seven years old, and already possessed the attainnts of a Third Grade Alchemist.
Such talent was extrely rare in the current Alchemy Master Alliance.
Zheng Fei was not from the Chu Kingdom, and his appearance here today was rely because he was passing through for so matters.
A twenty-six year old Third Grade Alchemist, such a character, in the Profound Domain, no matter where he went, would hardly encounter anyone who dared to offend him.
Now soone had actually attacked and injured his vassal, which was undoubtedly a provocation to Zheng Fei.
"If you’re not blind, can’t you see that he made the first move against ?" Ji Chen said while holding Yanyan, calming her startled emotions as he spoke.
"How bold!"
"Where does this brat co from, speaking to Master Zheng Fei like this?"
"Master Zheng Fei is a Third Grade Alchemist, a disciple of Elder Sheng. Who do you think you are?"
"Not only blocking Master Zheng Fei’s path but also being so arrogant now, you truly have a death wish!"
The surrounding people all chided, thinking Ji Chen’s words exceedingly arrogant.
"If any of you dare speak another word, I don’t mind ensuring you’ll never speak again." Ji Chen glanced around, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
rely a Third Grade Alchemist, in his eyes, was nothing more than an ant.
If it were a normal ti, Ji Chen wouldn’t bother to pay them any mind, but at this mont, since they scared Yanyan and had such an overbearing attitude, how could Ji Chen simply let it be?
"What bold words! In the Profound Domain, you’re the first to blatantly disregard , Zheng Fei. If you have the guts, state your na, and I’ll see which family you belong to."
Zheng Fei snorted coldly, stepping out as the words of Ji Chen also made him feel sowhat humiliated.
Even knowing his identity, the other party still dared to not put him in their eyes; this was sothing Zheng Fei could not accept no matter what.
"You’re not worthy to know my na."
eting his gaze, Ji Chen spoke indifferently, "Now, get out of my sight imdiately; otherwise..."
"Courting death!"
Hearing Ji Chen’s words, Zheng Fei’s face imdiately turned dark.
"Slap!"
But the next mont, everyone only heard a crisp sound echo in their ears.
Ji Chen stepped forward and then directly slapped Zheng Fei hard across the face, knocking him flying.
"Ah!"
With a scream, Zheng Fei’s teeth were shattered, and his body crashed heavily onto a counter in the Anomaly Pavilion.
"You... you dare hit ?!"
He got up from the ground, raised his hand to his swollen face, spat out broken teeth, and was filled with rage.
No matter what, Zheng Fei never expected the other party would dare to strike him.
As a Third Grade Alchemist, people always treated him with utmost respect wherever he went.
When had anyone dared to ignore him like this and, even in front of everyone, slap him!
"What’s happening?"
The commotion here evidently alard so of the managers inside the Anomaly Pavilion.
Three elders walked over, frowning while their gaze swept across the scene.
The Anomaly Pavilion, being a branch of the Alchemy Master Alliance, who would normally dare to cause trouble here?
"Manager Li, this person is extrely arrogant, actually daring to attack ..."
Zheng Fei, filled with sha and anger, covered his cheek and spoke to a white-haired elder.
The elder’s surna was Li, and he was a manager here, also a Fourth Grade Alchemist, ranking much higher than Zheng Fei in status and other aspects.
Zheng Fei was known to be arrogant and overbearing, sothing Manager Li was well aware of, hence he held little regard for Zheng Fei.
But the opponent was, after all, a disciple of Elder Sheng, who was visiting the Anomaly Pavilion today along with Elder Sheng. Since soone had injured him here, Manager Li naturally couldn’t ignore it.
"Who are you, my young friend, and why did you attack?" Manager Li asked, frowning, his gaze falling on Ji Chen.
Clearly, he did not recognize Ji Chen, as Manager Li was also not from the Chu Kingdom, having been transferred from the alliance side two years ago, never having seen Ji Chen before.
Nevertheless, Manager Li was clearly observant, knowing that since Ji Chen dared to act even after knowing Zheng Fei’s identity, it was likely he had a substantial background.
Furthermore, Ji Chen’s deanor seed quite extraordinary, likely the scion of so great clan or Sect.
Regardless, causing injury in the Anomaly Pavilion was Ji Chen’s wrongdoing, and as a manager, he naturally had to uphold justice.
"They made the first move, I was rely teaching a lesson." Ji Chen said indifferently.
Seeing his nonchalant attitude, Manager Li was even more convinced that Ji Chen must have an impressive background; otherwise, he wouldn’t dare act so fearlessly in the Anomaly Pavilion.
"Manager Li, just now..."
From not far away, a servant ca over, having witnessed the entire incident, he recounted the event to Manager Li.
After listening, Manager Li nodded, "Master Zheng Fei, indeed, you were at fault initially..."
"He hit , and now it’s my fault?"
Hearing this, Zheng Fei’s face beca even more unpleasant, "Manager Li, if you can’t uphold justice, then I’ll have to inform my master and have him step in personally."
"This..."
Hearing this, Manager Li’s brow furrowed.
Zheng Fei’s master was the Pavilion Master of another branch of the alliance, known as Elder Sheng, holding the sa status as Alchemy King Zhuang Miao, such a figure being akin to a giant in the entire Profound Domain Alchemy Realm.
Currently, Elder Sheng was in the Anomaly Pavilion, being hosted personally by the Alchemy King.
"This matter... I’ll have to let Elder Sheng and the Pavilion Master decide." Manager Li was in a bit of a dilemma, finally saying this.
He then looked at Ji Chen again, "My young friend, please follow us upstairs to et Elder Sheng and the Pavilion Master, rest assured, our Anomaly Pavilion conducts business openly; if you’re truly not at fault, we won’t unjustly accuse you."
"Lead the way."
What surprised both Manager Li and Zheng Fei was that Ji Chen didn’t show any hesitation, but instead was quite willing to speak up.
"Putting on an act!"
Zheng Fei snorted coldly, "I want to see what kind of background you have; let’s see how arrogant you are in front of my master!"
