Chapter 2503: Do You Really Want to Fight Me?
Shangguan Mu’er was his beloved wife, yet someone actually dared to lay their treacherous hands on her. Moreover, it was through such underhanded means, which absolutely infuriated Jian Chen.
All outstanding women and men would have countless admirers, and this was especially so for beautiful women like Shangguan Mu’er.
Jian Chen would not be so angered if Jun Kong had openly pursued her, yet he just happened to use despicable means that even involved an aphrodisiac pill. This roused Jian Chen’s killing intent.
Jun Kong’s actions had already crossed Jian Chen’s bottom line.
“Seniors, do you plan on protecting Jun Kong despite the despicable actions he has committed?” Jian Chen asked sternly. His presence was pressuring as his killing intent surged. His gaze became utterly piercing.
Even when he faced three Chaotic Primes, he felt no fear nor did he shrink away. He was ready to take them on if they did not give him what he wanted.
“This is an internal affair of our Daoist Sect of Divine Sound. How we deal with it is a private matter as well. It has nothing to do with outsiders,” Lian Qi replied coldly, excluding Jian Chen.
He tried to label Jian Chen as an outsider, so he did not have the right to interfere with the internal affairs of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound.
“Mu’er is my wife. Since my wife is involved, I need to be involved as well.” Jian Chen’s attitude was firm, and his voice was icy-cold. He did not give in to what he said.
Lian Qi snorted coldly as a pressure that belonged to a Chaotic Prime radiated from him. His white robes ruffled from the pressure alone. Even though he seemed aggressive, he said coldly, “Then may I ask how you plan on getting involved?”
Jian Chen did not cower before Lian Qi. A powerful sword intent wrapped around him, and at that moment, his eyes became utterly piercing. It was like sword intent was hidden in them.
They stared down each other, which immediately made Lian Qi’s eyes narrow.
Lian Qi’s eyes actually felt a slight, piercing pain as he stared at Jian Chen’s eyes. He immediately became secretly astounded and thought, “What powerful sword intent. His comprehension of the Way of the Sword really is close to perfection. It’s much more powerful than other experts who have comprehended the Way of the Sword at his level.”
“Hand over Jun Kong, or I’ll never drop this matter,” Jian Chen said coldly. He stared right at Lian Qi with a piercing gaze and continued, “I don’t want to become enemies with your Daoist Sect of Divine Sound because of Mu’er, but if you plan on protecting Jun Kong, you can no longer blame me. Jun Kong is not someone you can protect even if you want to, even if your sect has four Chaotic Primes.”
With that, the expressions of Deng Wenxin, Gu Na, and Lian Qi all immediately changed. Deng Wenxin and Gu Na became stern, and Lian Qi’s eyes shone with vicious light. Afterwards, fury began to rise up from the bottom of his heart.
“This was only a grievance between our couple and Jun Kong. I don’t wish to see this evolve into a grievance with your Daoist Sect of Divine Sound, but if you force me to call my seniors from the Martial Soul Mountain, the situation will become messy,” Jian Chen added.
He was no longer alone in the Saints’ World. He no longer had to face everything alone because he had become the eighth successor of the Martial Soul lineage. He had backing.
Moreover, the Martial Soul lineage was like a peak organisation that possessed regular Grand Primes in the Saints’ World, so there was no need for him to feel any fear at all.
Hun Zang, Chu Jian, and Yue Chao all possessed the battle prowess of Grand Primes.
Moreover, Hun Zang was the most powerful of the three.
Such a force was enough to strike fear into the hearts of many peak organisations in the Saints’ World.
As expected, as soon as they heard him mention the Martial Soul Mountain, Deng Wenxin, Gu Na, and Lian Qi were all surprised. They showed fear.
The Martial Soul lineage was not the most powerful in the Saints’ World, but they were definitely the most burdensome to deal with.
They possessed the Martial Soul Mountain. Through the wondrous mountain, they could appear in any location in the Saints’ World. Distance was truly a negligible concept to the Martial Soul lineage. This was something that none of the Grand Primes in the Saints’ World could achieve.
Even Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes needed some time to travel from plane to plane. Crossing the entire Saints’ World would take even longer.
Only the supreme Grand Exalts who had basically become the laws of the world could achieve something similar.
They understood very well that if Jian Chen called for the Martial Soul lineage, the colossal figure of the Martial Soul Mountain would definitely descend in outer space near the Skyfire Plane in under half a minute.
The Martial Soul lineage could truly strike fear into the hearts of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound.
“Master, ancestors, let me out.” At this moment, Jun Kong’s voice rang out in the barrier. The barrier could block off the senses of the soul, but it was unable to block off Jun Kong’s voice.
Jun Kong stared right at Jian Chen as he called out, “Jian Chen, do you have the courage to fight me?”
Jun Kong did not know about Jian Chen’s true strength, nor did he know that the latter had already become a Primordial realm expert. His understanding of Jian Chen was that he was still a Godking. Jun Kung only thought that Jian Chen was a rather powerful supreme Godking.
Jun Kung also happened to be a supreme Godking, and he had comprehended one of the three concepts created by the Third Ancestor, the Heart of Life and Death, so his strength had been elevated to a new level. He could stand among the top ten of the Godkings’ Throne, so he was confident he was much more powerful than Jian Chen.
What happened on the Cloudmoon Peak disgraced him, and he wanted to vent it all on Jian Chen.
“Just let Jian Chen and Jun Kong fight so that this grievance can come to an end…”
At this moment, an obscure voice rang out in the surroundings with absolute authority.
The voice did not seem particularly old. It seemed extremely pleasant.
“Wind Ancestor!”
Deng Wenxin, Gu Na, and Lian Qi were shocked by the voice. A sliver of surprise appeared on their faces. They struggled to believe that the Wind Ancestor would give such an unexpected order.
They had personally witnessed Jian Chen’s strength. Even Ba Bu, a Fourth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime, could not even fight back. It was simply ridiculous now that Jun Kong was supposed to fight him as a mere Godking.
“Sigh,” Deng Wenxin sighed gently. Her barrier still enveloped the Cloudmoon Peak, but with a wave of her hand, she brought over Jun Kong.
The Wind Ancestor possessed absolute authority in the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound. No one could defy her will. Since she had spoken, they could only carry out her orders.
Gu Na and Lian Qi were gloomy. The Wind Ancestor’s orders had already revealed her stance on the whole situation. She had forsaken Jun Kong.
“Jun Kong, do you really want to fight me?” To another side, Jian Chen’s expression became strange instead.
