Chapter 1149 Poison Phoenix

"Can I help you?" Yuan asked the group of beauties standing before him.

"How rude! Do you know who you are standing before?!" One of the girls suddenly spoke in a displeased manner.

Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"I don't." He answered without hesitation and with a straight face.

This caught the girl who just spoke off guard.

"So, who are you guys?" Yuan didn't wait for the girl to respond and asked.

"I am Tang Meili, one of Four Dragons and Phoenixes, also known as Poison Phoenix. You've heard of us, right?"

If Silver Dragon hadn't told her about Yuan, she would've definitely assumed that he had no idea about the Four Dragons and Phoenixes. After all, they only existed in the Supreme Heaven.

"Yes, I have heard about you guys before. So, how can I help you, Poison Phoenix?"

"Now that you know my identity, you still dare to speak so casually? You're an arrogant one." Poison Phoenix sneered, but she didn't really sound bothered by it.

And she continued, "Anyways, my Tang Family happens to be hiring more servants. Although you don't really qualify at this moment, I'm willing to make an exception. Become my servant."

Yuan was speechless. He didn't expect for her to suddenly recruit her as a servant.

After snapping out of it, he chuckled, "Are you always like this?"

Tang Meili frowned and muttered in a low but cold voice, "What do you mean? And before you answer, I urge you to really think about your words, as there will be consequences for offending me."

Yuan showed a daring smile, "There you go again. How can you say such words with such a calm face? There should be a limit to one's arrogance. Even if you came from the upper heavens, you don't own everyone here, so don't act and speak like you do."

Tang Meili's body visibly trembled after she heard his words.

"How dare you!"

"You're courting death, you insolent bastard!"

"You think you're untouchable just because you are a little talented?! I'll show you!"

The girls with Tang Meili exploded with anger before she could even respond.

"Let's all calm down, shall we?" A familiar voice suddenly resounded.

It was Long Chen.

'I thought I told him to not follow me…' This was the first thing that came to Yuan's mind when he saw Long Chen.

"Calm down?! I will calm down after I cut off his tongue!" One of the girls said as she leaped forward and swung her weapon at Yuan's face.

Ding!

Long Chen quickly reacted by deflecting the attack.

"Scram!" Long Chen roared, his aura exploding like a bomb.

"Ah!" The girl who clashed with him was sent flying backwards.

His title as Silver Dragon wasn't for nothing. In this place, perhaps only Poison Phoenix could fight him properly.

"Let's attack him together! Even he cannot defeat all of us while his cultivation is restricted to Spirit King!" Someone suggested.

However, before they could act, Tang Meili shouted, "All of you stand down!"

The place became silent again.

"You want to have a go with me? It's been many years since our last exchange, after all." Long Chen beckoned her with a confident smile.

"Hmph." Tang Meili sneered at his words, and she said, "I don't have any business with you today, Silver Dragon."

After saying that, she approached Yuan, and despite Long Chen standing between them, she completely ignored him and walked right past him.

Long Chen didn't try to stop her since he didn't feel any killing intent from her, but he still kept an eye on her just in case.

Tang Meili stopped once she was in front of Yuan.

"I will only ask you this one time. Are you sure you don't want to serve me? My Tang Family is one of the top 10 families in the Supreme Heaven. Although you will only be a servant, nobody would dare to mess with you. If you put in enough work, you might even be allowed to learn our family techniques."

Despite Yuan's earlier remarks that would normally result in a death sentence from her, she still approved and desired his talents. After all, someone who could learn Enhanced Sword Aura in this kind of environment and at his age would be hard to find even in the Supreme Heaven.

"Thank you for the offer, but I will have to refuse." Yuan responded without needing to think about it.

"Is that so?" Tang Meili closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

When she opened them, they were resolute and emitted a ruthless aura.

"If you're not going to join us, then I don't need to worry about breaking you."

Tang Meili's words implied that she was going to destroy him, but she didn't do that and simply turned around and began walking away.

"Senior sister, you should break his limbs at the very least for looking down on you."

"I'm not the type that enjoys stepping on ants, but I will kill him if he ever dares to step foot in the Supreme Heaven." Tang Meili said in a cold voice.

"That's it? I was hoping for a good show." Jin Xi said in a disappointed tone after Tang Meili and her group were gone.

Yuan looked at her with slightly widened eyes and said, "You're going to let them attack me? What kind of guide are you?"

Jin Xi shrugged, "I'm your guide, not your guardian. And you already have a guardian, so why are you expecting something from me?"

Yuan turned to look at Long Chen, who was silently smiling at him.

"Is everyone in the Supreme Heaven like that?"

Long Chen shrugged, "I can't speak for everyone, but that's how many people in the Supreme Heaven view those from a lower realm. After all, even beggars up there have a higher cultivation than everyone down here. Though, the Poison Phoenix showed a lot of restraint back there. Normally, she'd kill anyone that dares to talk back to her."

"Is that so? What about you? How do you view the people down here?" Yuan suddenly asked him.

A cold smile appeared on Long Chen's face as he replied, "Of course, you're all nothing but ants in my eyes."

"You think I am an ant as well?" Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"In your current state? Yes, you are. I don't mean to sound conceited, but even with my cultivation restricted, I can easily crush you with a single finger. You may have potential, but that's all you are right now— potential."

"..."

Long Chen continued, "You are probably thinking that you have a few cards up your sleeve since I haven't seen you fight at 100 percent, but the same goes for you."

Yuan shrugged, "Even if you are wrong, I have no reason to prove you wrong. If you have nothing else to say, I am going to leave."

Long Chen was slightly shaken when he noticed Yuan's unwavering eyes.

'Does he really believe that he could have a proper fight with me?' He almost couldn't believe it.

However, before he could even say anything, Yuan had already left his side and entered the Sword Temple.

Since he has yet to pass the Sword Trial, Long Chen could only watch as Yuan's back disappeared into the building.
