Chapter 1239: Bet

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the Building of Outstanding Heroes, a deep gorge extended from the lobby to the main entrance. Looking at the gorge, the expressions of all of the top grand forces gradually became grim. The scene before them was too bizarre, and they could not make sense of what was happening at all.
Xiong Ba’s blow was so fierce, even an Upper Earthly Sovereign would have to use his full strength to defend himself against it. But, Mu Chen merely raised a hand in response, sending out a blow that caused Xiong Ba’s spiritual energy to darken. Xiong Ba than fell back, spitting out a stream of blood as he went.
No matter which way anyone looked at it, this situation was suspicious. Hence many startled gazes swung towards Mu Chen, whose calm expression had not wavered. They obviously would not think that Xiong Ba had been playing the fool, so the only viable conclusion that they could make was that Mu Chen had used some trick.
Either way, not only was Xiong Ba’s blow utterly useless, he had also fallen into such a sorry state, which was enough for them to understand that this youth, who was merely a Lower Earthly Sovereign, indeed had outstanding abilities. In fact, one could tell from his performance that he was worthy of ascending to the Upper Earthly Sovereign Battlefield!
A few grand forces who were unhappy with Mu Chen’s stepping in went silent. They also took note of his name, as they sensed a dangerous aura coming from Mu Chen after his previous move.
Just as the grand forces in the Building of Outstanding Heroes were completely changing their impressions of him, at the front door, Xiong Ba stood up with bloodshot eyes. His body’s ferocious spiritual energy, which had vanished suddenly, immediately gushed out again like a tornado.
His sunken chest rapidly recovered. Mu Chen’s blow was not a killing blow, so while Xiong Ba looked to be in a sorry sight, such an injury was nothing to an Upper Earthly Sovereign’s tenacious vitality!
However, even though his injuries were not severe, Xiong Ba’s ego was badly bruised. He stared at Mu Chen with bloodshot eyes, then yelled, “You ba*tard! What trick did you use just now?”
Xiong Ba was obviously incredibly frustrated. He never would have thought that he would lose control of his body’s spiritual energy at such a crucial moment. This unforeseen event was obviously due to Mu Chen!
Mu Chen ignored his yells, and with a grasp of his palm, the alabaster jar that had fallen to one side flew into his hand. Then, he said nonchalantly, “You are just incompetent!”
“I refuse to yield!” Xiong Ba roared ferociously, and with a stomp of his foot, his figure again flashed forward, like lightning.
Mu Chen merely rolled his eyes at Xiong Ba’s furious move. He then asked, “Ready to go another round? That will be another 80 million in Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.”
Whoosh!
Xiong Ba’s wretched figure came to an immediate halt, and he looked at Mu Chen furiously, his hair almost standing on end. “You want some more? In your dreams!”
Mu Chen smiled and said, “No problem. I will get Mu Estate’s Complete Earthly Sovereign to collect the debt.”
Xiong Ba’s expression was stony and his fists were trembling. His fury almost made him lose all logical sense and kill Mu Chen right there and then. But, he finally reined in his anger, as the youth before him was no ordinary Lower Earthly Sovereign.
“I will remember this!” Xiong Ba’s face changed drastically, while he turned and escaped the Building of Outstanding Heroes, his tail between his legs.
Witnessing Xiong Ba’s pathetic exit, Xue Lingzi, who was standing at the side, wore an ugly expression. He stared maliciously at Mu Chen and said, “This fellow appears to have gotten even stronger!”
Xue Lingzi gritted his teeth. It was evident that Mu Chen’s abilities had increased massively in just one month.
“Next time, if you want to make a move, don’t use someone else to do it for you, but just face me like a man!” Mu Chen smiled, but his gaze, which was directed at Xue Lingzi, was extremely icy. He naturally could tell that Xiong Ba had been manipulated by Xue Lingzi, sent to cause Mu Chen trouble.
Hearing this, Xue Lingzi gave a cold harrumph, then said coldly, “Although I don’t know what tactics you used, after seeing this fight, many people will be wary of you when you ascend to the Upper Earthly Sovereign Battlefield. So, when the time comes, you won’t have an advantage either!”
This Xue Lingzi was indeed cunning and discerning, as he could tell that Xiong Ba had lost because he had engaged in direct spiritual energy contact with Mu Chen. As long as he guarded against this next time, Mu Chen’s trump card would lose its efficacy!
“That despicable old man!” Luo Tianshen roared, obviously furious at Xue Lingzi.
However, Mu Chen was very calm, and he merely looked at Xue Lingzi with an indecipherable expression and said, “If we meet, when that time comes, I will show you just how many cards I have hidden up my sleeve!”
Hearing Mu Chen’s words, Xue Lingzi’s heart skipped a beat, but he just smiled coldly and said, “Then I will look forward to that day. But, you must be careful! If I accidentally slaughter you on the battlefield, even the Flame Emperor won’t be able to save you!”
Mu Chen laughed nonchalantly and said, “You don’t have that ability, you coarse old man.”
Mu Chen’s scorn made the veins in Xue Lingzi’s forehead pulsate wildly, but he swallowed his anger, looked Mu Chen in the eye, then departed with a wave of his sleeve.
Following Xue Lingzi’s and Xiong Ba’s departures, the atmosphere in the Building of Outstanding Heroes gradually returned to normal. But, after the previous battle, the gazes of the top grand forces towards Mu Chen were now no longer filled with condescension, but fear.
It seemed as if Xiong Ba’s pitiful departure had achieved its intended effect. At least from now on, no nameless fellows would challenge him in the hopes of getting a breakthrough! Or, they would at least think twice as to whether or not the consequences were worth it!
On the third floor, Ling Feizi had watched Xiong Ba with a stony expression. She then said, clearly frustrated, “They are all rubbish!”
She had contributed the 80 million in Sovereign Spiritual Liquid, thinking that Xiong Ba would be able to dash Mu Chen’s spirits, enabling her to then take the opportunity to deal Luo Li a huge blow. But, Xiong Ba had proven to be useless!
“Miss Ling Feizi, if you are bored, why don’t you make some more preparations? However you want to play it in the Lower Earthly Sovereign Battlefield, I will humor you.” As if sensing Ling Feizi’s frustration, Luo Li suddenly raised her pretty head and stared coldly at Ling Feizi with her crystal clear gaze.
As her clear voice had rang out across the entire Building of Outstanding Heroes, Luo Li’s statement made countless gazes settle on her iinstantly. All of the grand forces looked pensive, worried that what had just occurred had offended the Queen of the Luo God Clan!
Luo Li was indeed slightly angry. Moreover, she could clearly discern Ling Feizi’s hostility, which she couldn’t care less about, but she was unable to dismiss Ling Feizi using this tactic to give Mu Chen trouble. That was why she had broken her long silence and directly challenged Ling Feizi.
On the third floor, Ling Feizi was startled, as she had never expected Luo Li to be so blunt. She quickly turned resentful, and with a cold laugh, she said, “Okay, when the time comes, we’ll see who will emerge victorious!”
After her proclamation, she had no reason to stay any longer, so with a wave of her sleeves, she turned away with an icy expression.
“You must be careful when dealing with this woman,” Mu Chen reminded Luo Li in a low voice, while they both watched Ling Feizi’s departing figure. After all, Ling Feizi was clearly not an easy opponent.
Hearing this, Luo Li smiled slightly and said, “I know, but I have not lived all of these years in vain.”
Mu Chen smiled, nodding his head. After all, Luo Li had not only been able to maintain the tenuous Luo God Clan, but she had even nurtured it into an emerging force. Hence, she was not a regular woman! While that Ling Feizi was not an easy opponent, she still would not have the advantage in a fight with Luo Li!
“Let’s go,” Luo Tianshen said, deciding to let the two of them rest.
“Wait for a while.” Mu Chen suddenly smiled, looked at the Anticipated Victors Monument, then immediately threw the alabaster jar that contained the 80 million in Sovereign Spiritual Liquids towards a serving lady and said, “Bet all of this Sovereign Spiritual Liquid for me.”
“Who would you like me to bet on, sir?” The serving lady was stunned.
Mu Chen laughed wolfishly. Since most of the top forces of the Western Kingdom Continent were prejudiced against him, he refused to continue biding his time. So, he laughed again, and said, “Bet on me!”
Immediately, all of the top grand forces in the Building of Outstanding Heroes trembled slightly, while staring at Mu Chen with shocked gazes. They were surprised that Mu Chen had directly set his sights on the champion of the Upper Earthly Sovereign Battlefield.
This young man was truly aggressive! They had to wonder…
Would an unexpected dark horse appear in this Upper Earthly Sovereign Battlefield?
