C19 You Are so Annoying When You Are Acting Cool
"Young master Chen is so talented that he can definitely defeat the Mu Rong Family."
Someone said.
"Right now, I can't see what kind of trick that old fox Murong is trying to play, but, if someone from the Mu Rong Family younger generation really advances to their Qi Sea Stage, Chen Er, are you still confident?"
Jiang Zhenhai looked worriedly at Jiang Chen. It wasn't just him, but the others as well. Although Jiang Chen could defeat Murong Hao, the difference between Rank Nine of Qi Stage and Qi Sea Stage was not small.
Besides, the duel this time would not only determine Jiang Chen's safety, but also the Jiang family's belonging of pill workshop. He had to take it seriously.
"Dad, don't worry, if I am not confident, I wouldn't do it. It's still the same old saying, if Murong Zhan wants to play, we will keep him company until the end."
Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, his entire body was filled with confidence. With his abilities, forget about early period of Qi Sea Stage, even if it was middle period of Qi Sea Stage, he wouldn't care at all. He wasn't afraid of Mu Rong Family playing tricks, he was only concerned that it wouldn't be interesting at all.
"Alright, I will immediately accept the written challenge."
Jiang Zhenhai's aura shook, he was extremely confident in Jiang Chen. Ever since his son had changed, he had always done whatever he wanted to do, and he had always been so confident that he had succeed in killing Jiang Rulong with one move. He had witnessed him crippling the number one genius in Mu Rong Family at the pill workshop gate yesterday, which was something that an ordinary young man couldn't even compare to.
Also, the Jiang family had to accept Murong Zhan's challenge. If they didn't, it would mean that the Jiang family was afraid of Mu Rong Family. Just as Jiang Chen had said, they would be laughed at when they went out in the future.
Just as Jiang Chen had expected, the written challenge from Mu Rong Family had already spread to the streets and alleys when it arrived at the Jiang family household. At this moment, every part of the Heavenly Fragrant City was discussing the contents of the written challenge.
"There's going to be a good show to watch again. The Mu Rong Family has sent a written challenge to the Jiang family. They're going to each elect a young genius to duel in three days at the center plaza of the Heavenly Fragrant City."
"Yeah, I heard this time, he's going to directly use pill workshop as the wager, and his Mu Rong Family is going to go all out."
"Obviously, the target of the Mu Rong Family is Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen's sudden rise in strength has made the Mu Rong Family feel a deep threat, and they want to take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of Jiang Chen and destroy the Jiang family, but what I don't understand is, even Murong Hao is not Jiang Chen's opponent. Who else in the younger generation of Mu Rong Family can contend with Jiang Chen? Could Murong Zhan be crazy?"
"Impossible, that old cunning fox Murong Zhan would definitely not go crazy, there must be a conspiracy behind this, just wait and see."
...
Many people were discussing, not knowing what Murong Zhan was up to. Logically speaking, no one in the younger generation of Mu Rong Family would be able to contend against Jiang Chen, but Murong Zhan definitely had some trump cards in her hands.
"Do you think the Jiang family will accept the challenge?"
"Definitely, with young master Jiang Chen's temper, he'll definitely accept the challenge. Besides, they have no choice but to accept the challenge, and now everyone on the streets knows that if the Jiang family doesn't accept the challenge, then they'll be laughed at. The Jiang family can't afford to lose their face."
"The Jiang family has also sent out their written challenge. Jiang Chen has accepted it. This is going to be a good show!"
"I knew he would accept the challenge, I just wonder who Mu Rong Family will send to deal with Jiang Chen in three days. Could there be someone stronger than Murong Hao in the entire Mu Rong Family?"
...
As a citizen of the Heavenly Fragrant City, they would definitely be concerned about the battle between the two Families. Everyone knew that the situation of the Heavenly Fragrant City would change sooner or later, and only one party could survive when the battle ended. So the biggest turning point would be the battle in three days.
Today would be the busiest day in the Heavenly Fragrant City. In the center of the Heavenly Fragrant City, there was a large plaza which was known as the Central Plaza, which was around three hundred meters in radius.
At this moment, the center of the plaza was filled with a sea of people. Everyone was looking forward to this battle.
Under Murong Zhan's lead, nearly twenty people from Mu Rong Family appeared beside the battlestage in the center of the plaza.
Murong Zhan's face was full of energy and spirit, as though he was very confident in this duel. Beside him stood a handsome young master dressed in white, who was none other than Li Changhong.
Many people looked at Li Changhong, feeling that he was a stranger, they had never seen him before.
"Who is that young man? I have never seen a person who actually has the qualifications to stand with Murong Zhan with the same authority. "
"I don't know, it's definitely not someone from the Mu Rong Family."
Some people were discussing amongst themselves.
"Humph! Why isn't the Jiang family here yet? They can't be scared to the point that they don't dare to come, right?"
Murong Ying snorted coldly, he had once been knocked to the ground in front of the Jiang Family’s gate, and shamelessly brought back Jiang Rulong's coffin. Murong Zhan was so angry that he had almost crippled him, he had always kept this grudge in his heart, and whenever he thought of Jiang Chen, he could not help but clench his teeth.
"Look, the Jiang Family is here!"
"The one wearing a black robe is young master Jiang Chen. He was once the number one playboy in Heavenly Fragrant City, I didn't expect him to be pretending all this time."
"That's right. Look at him. His appearance looks extraordinary. He looks like a man of talent with just one look."
Everything that had happened in the recent days in the Heavenly Fragrant City had to do with young master Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen had become an influential figure in the Heavenly Fragrant City, and no matter where he went, he would attract attention.
The group of Jiang Family members came to the opposite side of the Mu Rong Family and stood there.
"Jiang Zhenhai, I wonder who from your Jiang Family will fight?"
Murong Zhan said with a cold smile.
"Of course it will be my son."
Jiang Zhenhai also had a cold smile on his face, but at that time, Jiang Chen had set his gaze on Li Changhong. Seeing him standing together with Mu Rong Family, he seemed to understand something.
When Jiang Chen was looking at Li Changhong, Li Changhong was sizing him up as well. He was sizing up his opponent today, a person who seemed to be everywhere in Heavenly Fragrant City recently.
"I wonder who Mu Rong Family has sent out to fight. I'm afraid there's already no alternative in the Mu Rong Family."
Jiang Zhenhai's tone carried a trace of ridicule.
Murong Zhan's face turned cold, the words of no alternative in Mu Rong Family were like a knife stabbing into his heart, causing him to feel extremely uncomfortable, but at the same time, it also caused his hatred towards Jiang Chen to reach its limit.
"Humph! This is not something that you need to worry about, someone will naturally be sent out from my Mu Rong Family. "
Murong Zhan snorted coldly, right after he finished speaking, Li Changhong jumped up onto the battlestage, releasing the aura of the Qi Sea Stage from his body. He looked at Jiang Chen and said with contempt: "Jiang Chen, come up and duel to your death."
"Who is this person? Not someone from the Mu Rong Family. "
"Where did Mu Rong Family get a young expert? He's already at Qi Sea Stage, no wonder he's so confident that he wants to duel with the Jiang family. But this doesn't seem to be according to the rules."
The sound of discussion rose, scolding Mu Rong Family actually sent out a stranger onto the stage.
"Murong Zhan, he's not one of your Mu Rong Family, so he doesn't have the qualifications to duel."
Jiang Zhenhai's expression changed, he had originally thought that Mu Rong Family had got a new genius to promote his Qi Sea Stage, and that could have been why Murong Zhan made such a decision. He did not expect that he would invite an outsider, the person in front of him clearly had been at the early period of Qi Sea Stage for some time, his foundation was so solid that someone who had just advanced in Qi Sea Stage could not compare to, then this threat would be too great for Jiang Chen.
"Jiang Zhenhai, look carefully at the written challenge. I only said that Mu Rong Family and the Jiang Family will definitely find a young genius, I did not say that it will definitely be my Mu Rong Family. If you, Jiang Zhenhai, can find a genius with Qi Sea Stage, I have nothing to say."
Murong Zhan sneered.
"Shameless."
"Too shameless, this is unfair."
The people of the Jiang family were furious, this Murong Zhan was too sinister, how could he actually make this move.
"I accept."
Jiang Chen said as the corners of his mouth curled up. The indifferent expression on his face made it hard to tell what he was thinking.
"Chen Er."
"Dad, there's no need to say anymore. I accept the challenge, our Jiang family cannot be looked down upon."
Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face. Others might not know Li Changhong's identity, but he knew that he finally understood the trick behind it. The only thing that made him regretful was that he didn't kill Li Changhong that day.
Li Changhong wanted to kill him so that he could control the Jiang Family's pill workshop and then control the alchemist to put the Jiang Family to death.
A hint of coldness appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes. No matter what identity the opponent had, he would never show the slightest bit of mercy towards anyone who wanted to hurt him and his family. Even if the opponent was a young master of Li Family of Red City, offending him would only end up with one result.
Jiang Chen leapt up onto a ten-feet tall battlestage and stood opposite of Li Changhong.
"I have to explain that today's duel is a life and death duel. Once you stand on the battlestage, you have to fight until one party is dead, and also, the one who loses, has to unconditionally hand over his pill workshop to the one who wins. Conditions like these was clear in the written challenge."
Murong Zhan smoothed his beard as he said loudly. The satisfying look on his face seemed to indicate that everything was in his control. In fact, Murong Zhan was indeed very confident. Others might not know of Li Changhong's abilities, but he knew that as a young master of the Li Family of Red City, he definitely had a lot of trump cards in his hands, so getting rid of a little Jiang Chen was not a problem.
"Murong Zhan, you are too shameless."
Jiang Zhenhai appeared anxious and awkward, he was worried for Jiang Chen's safety, but he could not refute Murong Zhan's words, because these were indeed the words in the written challenge. Since he had accepted the challenge today, he had to follow the written order.
"Murong Zhan is truly sinister, he set up a trap for the Jiang Family to take advantage of him."
"That's right, it's not quite right, but looking at the indifferent look on Jiang Chen's face, he might be confident."
"It's hard to say, but the opponent is an expert of Qi Sea Stage, far surpassing that of an ordinary Qi Jing."
...
Many people were sighing, feeling that Murong Zhan had planned all of this properly. Now, the Jiang Family was in a dilemma.
"The Master of the Mu Rong Family is right. Since we have mounted the battlestage, we naturally have to engage in a life-and-death battle. One’s destiny and wealth is all doomed by the God. I believe that someone is already prepared to die."
Jiang Chen said in a strange tone.
"Haha, brat who doesn't know his place. If I want to kill you, it's like crushing an ant."
Li Changhong laughed out loud, not putting Jiang Chen in his eyes at all.
"Looking at your pretentious look, you really make me sick."
Jiang Chen laughed out loud, he did not have any good impression of Li Changhong.
