The ancient city was the center of the Sacred Territory. No one knew for exactly how long this city had existed, but it was spectacular. The magnificent, tall city wall was black, its tallic luster worn away by ti, but it was still remarkable, and definitely worth paying attention to.
Gazing at the city standing within the walls, it looked like a giant beast settling down for a nap next to a mountain. Nurous marks on the city wall could be observed from the city gate. So of them had been left by weapons, while others were scratches from animal paws. The wall was made of steel, but was not smooth or even. It was rough, but absolutely hard and solidly built. It was impossible for average people to leave marks on it.
According to historical records, the ancient city had been used to resist fierce beasts in ancient tis. The ancient peoples had accomplished a remarkable feat in building it. Up until this day, it was still standing, and it had beco a proud symbol.
Walking into the city, Jiang Chen had the sa feeling he had had 500 years ago. He could sense what a long history this city had had from the atmosphere there. It was seeped in stories of long ago.
Jiang Chen involuntarily thought about his conversation with Azure Demon and the black dragon. Would human beings really experience a catastrophe? What he could see right now was peace. The local people were in the middle of a celebration. Enemies stopped fighting and ca into the city to watch the fight among the best young geniuses.
Jiang Chen walked in the city aimlessly. The Title Palace was not in the ancient city, but the qualification battle would be held here. The Title Palace was not big enough to hold so many people. That was why there had to be a selection first via the qualification battle. Only 100 people would be qualified for the Title Battle in the end.
All of a sudden, Jiang Chen found his Cliff Mountain disciple token was slightly vibrating, reacting to sothing. Following the token as a guide, he ca to a restaurant sitting high up almost atop the city walls.
“Sir, I’m sorry. The whole restaurant has been booked by Cliff Mountain.” A waiter ran out to tell him.
“I’m a disciple of Cliff Mountain.” Jiang Chen flashed his token before the waiter.
“Please co in! Young master, could you let know your na?”
Cliff Mountain had prepared rooms for all of its disciples. They just had to give their nas to check in.
“Jiang Chen.”
The waiter was apparently petrified after hearing his na. He lifted his head, as if he could hardly believe what he had heard. He shouted out in surprise, “You’re the Jiang Chen?!”
His exclamation caught lots of people’s attentions. Most of the disciples of Cliff Mountain knew about Jiang Chen, but had never seen him.
“It’s him!”
“I can’t believe he has the nerve to co.”
“He is stronger than when he killed Young Master Shenji.”
The disciples of Cliff Mountain talked to each other in low voices.
The waiter ca to himself. As pale as a ghost and sweating heavily, he said, “My bad! Young Master Chen, please don’t be angry with . It wasn’t deliberate!”
Because of his reaction, many people had seen Jiang Chen. It was not a big problem, but the waiter was very scared.
“Are you afraid of ?” Seeing him behave like this, Jiang Chen, who had been unhappy with his reaction, was very curious. The waiter’s legs trembled so much that he almost knelt down.
Jiang Chen had shocked the whole world with his exploits during this ti. What he had done was awe-inspiring. Many people admired him. He challenged the Jiangs first. Then he antagonized the Spirits. The death of Huo Lingtian especially caused a great disturbance.
They secretly called him Young Master Madness.
The waiter worshipped him as well for what he had done to resist the Spirits. However, seeing Jiang Chen face to face, the only thing that ca to his mind was what a decisive killer Jiang Chen was. He had offended Jiang Chen. He could get himself killed for that.
Smiling bitterly, Jiang Chen said, “Show the way to my room.”
The waiter was struck dumb. He made an effort to walk, taking Jiang Chen upstairs.
Cliff Mountain was good to him—they had prepared a great room for his pleasure.
“You can go. Don’t be scared of . I won’t eat you.” Gazing at the jittery waiter, Jiang Chen tipped him so upper-grade yuan stones.
The waiter felt relieved. He took the yuan stones and closed the door for Jiang Chen. “The rumor isn’t true. He isn’t mad.” The waiter found his worries were completely unnecessary.
Jiang Chen’s arrival spread all over the ancient city not long after he had checked in. As the man of the hour, it was difficult for him to keep a low profile. He caught people’s attention wherever he went.
Naturally, Fengyu Duo were his first visitors.
Jiang Chen said as soon as he saw them, “Congratulations on becoming Celestial Venerables!”
Fengyu Duo had beco Celestial Venerables as they had wanted after practicing assiduously.
“But the gap between us is even bigger now.” Zhou Jianfeng was as handso and as elegant as always. He was confident in whatever he said or whatever he did. However, he felt kind of helpless facing Jiang Chen. What he said was true.
Martial arts practitioners were lonely when they had achieved the peak. If the gap was too huge, it would even subtly affect the relationship between family mbers; not to ntion good friends. Jiang Chen had known many good people throughout his whole journey, but unfortunately, as his state enhanced, they just drifted apart.
“Miss Xiao....”
Jiang Chen detected sothing when he was about to salute her. His look instantly beca sharper. Gazed at by him, Zhou Jianfeng and Xiao Yujian both lowered their heads involuntarily.
“Who did that to you?” Jiang Chen said in a cold voice.
Fengyu Duo were both heavily injured! How heavy were their injuries? Jiang Chen estimated they could not even take part in the qualification battle. Even if they could, there was no way they could win. Although these injuries were unobservable by the naked eye, as a doctor, Jiang Chen certainly could detect them.
“Jiang Chen, this is our business. Please stay out of it,” Zhou Jianfeng said with a helpless smile.
Jiang Chen knew he was a proud person, but for the mont he seed so fragile. Jiang Chen felt pity for him. “Did I bring you trouble? Be honest with . I’ll know sooner or later,” Jiang Chen asked. This was one of the reasons that he did not want to make many friends. Since he ran into danger constantly, he did not want to cause harm to others.
Fengyu Duo exchanged a look. They were going to tell him the truth. They had arrived in the ancient city a few days ago. When they entered the city, they ran into Wu Ziming from the Wind Spirit.
“You’re Jiang Chen’s friends?” That was the only question Wu Ziming posed them. What happened next was not difficult to imagine. Even though Fengyu Duo were already Celestial Venerables, they were still not a match for Wu Ziming.
Wu Ziming was a cruel man. The injuries he caused them could not be recovered from in a short ti. As a result, they would miss out on the Title Battle.
“Sit down.” Jiang Chen was very angry, but he did not forget how to treat them.
“It’s not going to work. Our master told us it would take us a long ti to recover. Ti will cure everything.”
“Jiang Chen, don’t worry about us. Our master has sent people to look for spiritual herbs for us.” Fengyu Duo said one by one.
“Trust . Your injuries are nothing to . I can cure you,” Jiang Chen said.
Convinced by his confidence, they sat down on chairs. Jiang Chen took out his silver needles to treat them with his extraordinary techniques. He cured both of them at the sa ti.
“That’s amazing!” Fengyu Duo were pleasantly surprised.
Zhou Jianfeng exclaid, “Jiang Chen, is there anything you can’t do?”
“Thanks a lot,” Xiao Yujian said.
“Not at all. Now it’s ti to avenge you,” Jiang Chen said.
Fengyu Duo were dumbfounded. They hurried to block his way at the door to stop him.
“Where Wu Ziming stays is full of Wind Spirit elites.”
The two were not intimidated by the beating that they had received, but they did not think the situation was favorable for Jiang Chen.
“It has to be an elite for to care about beating them,” Jiang Chen said in a profound voice.
