Chapter 216: Holy Son Jiang Chen

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The Dashang Emperor had many children. As a result, Dashang had many princes.

The person before him was ranked around 150th among the princes and princesses of Dashang. He belonged to the lower-ranked princes. His age happened to be similar to the many prodigies around him, and the difference in strength was not big.

It was reasonable for Dashang to send him here.

However…

The young man behind him looked unfamiliar. Not only the Heavenly Heart Holy Son, but everyone else was also confused.

“Holy Son, this person is the illegitimate son of Dashang’s Duke of the Valiant. His name is Yang Kai and had always been a Confucian cultivator. But for some reason, he suddenly had an epiphany not long ago and passed the Nirvana Tribulation. It is said that he passed the eighth Nirvana Tribulation. The Dashang Empire hereby bestows upon him the title of Marquis Wen.”

A white-haired elder explained behind the Heavenly Heart Holy Son.

“Oh?”

When the Heavenly Heart Holy Son heard that, his heart quivered as he said, “Dashang truly has outstanding talents! First, there was Marquis Champion, and now there is Marquis Wen. Moreover, these two are both extraordinarily talented!”

However…

From the Heavenly Heart Holy Son’s perspective, Marquis Wen still lacked some refinement.

Although the Holy Son had yet to see his strength, judging from his physique and the number of Nirvana Tribulations passed, Marquis Wen had already lost!

One had to know that back then, not only did Marquis Champion have an invincible divine body, but he had also passed the ninth Nirvana Tribulation!

However…

It wasn’t like Marquis Wen didn’t have the chance to catch up. Because he walked the Confucian path!

When Confucian cultivators fought with others, they used literary energy rather than spiritual energy.

If he were to also cultivate orthodox cultivation methods in the future, his combat strength would probably double! It was just unknown whether this Marquis Wen had been cultivating both cultivation systems simultaneously.

“But speaking of which, Since the people of Dashang have arrived, perhaps they will target the Great Mystery Sacred Sect next!”

The Heavenly Heart Holy Son felt a slight stir in his heart and directed his gaze towards a mountaintop not far away.

At this moment, several elders of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect were standing at the peak. Although Su Chen had not arrived yet, some elders of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect were already present.

These people were only in the Nirvana Realm. They could barely handle some Spirit Sea Realm prodigies.

However, if facing a Nirvana Realm prodigy, they might struggle, and there could even be a risk of falling in battle.

If Su Chen didn’t show up this time, even though the Great Mystery Sacred Sect was very close, they might not gain anything!

“Hehe… Fellow Daoist Shang, you’ve finally arrived!”

At this moment, a refreshing voice exploded in the void.

Immediately after, a young man in black robes descended from the sky.

His black hair was crystalline and lustrous, his Qi and blood vigorous. And deep within his eyes, there seemed to be the faint appearance of the sun, moon, and stars.

Every step he took was extremely calm and composed, yet each step was like billions of tons of power exploding, causing the entire void to distort.

“This is… Holy Son of the Infinite Demon Sect, Jiang Chen!”

Seeing this person appear, everyone’s expressions became strange.

Since the inheritance had appeared here, some peers would certainly choose to spar with each other to suppress rivals.

However, what they didn’t expect was… This Holy Son of the Infinite Demon Sect actually chose to be friendly with the Dashang prince.

Were these two forces planning to temporarily ally?

If that was really the case, it would be very bad for the other sects!

“Long time no see, Dellow Daoist Jiang Chen!”

When Shang Feng heard this, he raised his eyes to look at the newcomer and greeted him with a faint smile.

“Fellow Daoist Shang, who is far away in Dashang, yet managed to arrive at these desolate mountains. It’s not like someone who is only tens of thousands of miles away but still hasn’t shown up!”

Jiang Chen said with a smile.

As he spoke, his gaze glanced at the Ninth Princess of Dachu from the corner of his eye, with a hint of disdain in the depths.

“In my opinion, the reason why that person doesn’t dare show up is definitely because he is scared!”

As soon as he said this, the hearts of those around stirred slightly.

Although Jiang Chen didn’t directly say the name, everyone present knew what he meant. He was definitely referring to Su Chen!

After all, only the Great Mystery Sacred Sect was the closest to these desolate mountains. Just needing to cross the Great Mystery Mountains would do.

Logically speaking, Su Chen should have been the first prodigy to arrive here. Yet until now, Su Chen was still nowhere to be found.

Many were secretly guessing that Su Chen most likely wasn’t coming!

“Humph! Seeking death!”

The Ninth Princess’s face turned icy as she couldn’t help but let out a cold snort. The others might be confused by Jiang Chen suddenly targeting Su Chen. After all, previously Jiang Chen had never met Su Chen before. However, the Ninth Princess knew very well. It was because she didn’t want to cooperate with Jiang Chen and instead sent people to the Great Mystery Sacred Sect to look for Su Chen. The people she sent didn’t see Su Chen, nor did they reach a cooperative agreement with him. But Jiang Chen had undoubtedly learned of this move. That was why he resented her!

“Fellow Daoist Jiang is right. Perhaps that person really doesn’t dare come!”

When Shang Feng heard this, he smiled.

“Tsk tsk, 1 didn’t expect that person to only have such limited courage! It seems many of the past rumors are false information. The reason why the Duke of Dashang and those dozens of Nirvana Realm experts died was very likely due to Su Chen’s sneak attack!”

Jiang Chen shook his head slightly, his face full of disdain.

Although both had killed dozens of Nirvana Realm experts, a sneak attack and a frontal confrontation were two completely different concepts.

Other than Su Chen, each of the prodigies present could kill dozens of Nirvana Realm experts in a sneak attack!

Shang Feng looked meaningfully at Jiang Chen and slowly said, “Although 1 wasn’t present when my Dashang Empire’s dozens of Nirvana Realm experts died, 1 think it should align with what Daoist Friend Jiang mentioned.”

Su Chen killing a Duke and dozens of Marquises of Dashang was quite a significant scandal

No matter what, Dashang would never admit those were killed by Su Chen directly. And now there was Jiang Chen, Holy Son of the Infinite Demon Sect, helping to cover it up, Shang Feng was so happy he didn’t even need to offer any explanations.

“Haha…”

Jiang Chen laughed coldly.

“It seems the Holy Son of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect is just a disciple fishing for fame and glory. I can suppress him with a flip of my hand…” Swoosh!

However, before he could finish speaking, a dazzling divine light shot over, streaking across the void for tens of meters. Its aura was shocking.

The mountains along the way were blasted apart by the divine light and turned to dust.

This divine light was extremely eye-catching, and its target was very clear, directly aimed at Jiang Chen’s head!

“Who is it? Who dares to ambush me?”

Jiang Chen suddenly turned back, looking at the divine light shooting towards him, and shouted loudly.

As his voice fell, he reached out his hand, and a dazzling imprint condensed in his palm, colliding with the divine light..
