Chapter 923

Killing the Geniuses of Saint Origin Palace

Leopard Wei no longer said anything . Although Kong Yang was formerly opponent, he knew him all too well . Kong Yang was a person who would never escape on his own, because if that was the case, he wouldn’t be Kong Yang .

“It is a sad thing that we – the two great geniuses of Demon Race - will fall at such a place . ” Leopard Wei sighed helplessly .  

The present circumstance was crystal clear . Kong Yang was severely injured, as such he couldn’t fight Desolate Yuan . Not only that, there was Desolate Cong, who was also a member of Desolate Family and a genius of Saint Origin Palace, who didn’t seem to have the intention of letting them go .

“Kong Yang, even though I am going to kill you today, I have to say that you are the genius I most admire among all the geniuses on the Sky Ranking . It’s a bit of pity that we can’t be friends . ”  Desolate Yuan said while shaking his head .

“You are right . We are fated not to be friends, because someone like you aren’t qualified to become a friend of Kong Yang . ”

Right after Desolate Yuan’s voice dropped, a voice suddenly sounded from behind . It wasn’t Kong Yang’s, it was Jiang Chen’s .

Hearing this line, everyone on the scene was petrified . They turned towards the source of the sound, including Kong Yang and Leopard Wei, and saw three silhouettes materializing in seconds . They were two men and a dog . One of them was a youth covered with blood, he was the Kong Yu who escaped .

“Jiang Chen . ”

Desolate Yuan and Leopard Wei exclaimed at the same time as they didn’t expect to see him here .

Seeing Jiang Chen, majestic combat intent burst out Desolate Yuan’s body . He was gritting his teeth, holding himself back from rushing over and slice Jiang Chen to pieces . From young until now, he had never lost a battle to any of his peers except to Jiang Chen . This was undeniably a great insult to his life . In order to scrape away this insult, he only had one way – that was to kill Jiang Chen .

On the other hand, Leopard Wei had entirely different thought . He felt like he had seen the sunlight the moment he saw Jiang Chen, shining upon his gloomy heart . He could feel that Jiang Chen was now many times more powerful than before . He knew the scariness of Jiang Chen after his battle with him . Now that Jiang Chen appeared, he and Kong Yang would be saved . He believed that Desolate Yuan wasn’t necessarily stronger than Jiang Chen .

Kong Yang looked over at Jiang Chen with astonished eyes . He had already heard about Jiang Chen beforehand, but it’s just today that he saw Jiang Chen in person . He was quite interested in the man who could kill Shi Han, but he didn’t expect his first meeting with Jiang Chen would be in such a scene .

“Desolate Yuan, it’s no use looking at me fiercely because no matter how angry you are, it won’t change the fact that you are the loser . Last time you ran away from the battle . Today, it is your misfortune to meet me again . Of course, if you choose to run away like a mourning dog again, there is still chance . ”

Jiang Chen’s tone, words and face were filled with sarcasm . He totally didn’t put Desolate Yuan in his eyes .

“What? He beat Desolate Yuan?”

Many people were shocked, including Kong Yang and Leopard Wei and Kong Yu who was standing beside Jiang Chen . All of their eyes widened due to disbelief, particularly Leopard Wei who was still speculating whether Jiang Chen could defeat Desolate Yuan . He hadn’t thought that the two had battled beforehand . According to Jiang Chen, Desolate Yuan was defeated and ran away .

It was too shocking to hear that the number one genius on the Sky Ranking was defeated by Jiang Chen . They certainly wouldn’t believe it if this wasn’t coming from Jiang Chen’s mouth .

Moreover, they could see the expression on Desolate Yuan’s face . It was a face that had been defeated by Jiang Chen .

“Jiang Chen, I will claim back the insult you brought upon me . Today, I will kill you . ” Desolate Yuan said maliciously .  

Jiang Chen’s words were like blades impaling his heart . It was the feeling when the wound was tore open bit by bit in the face of countless people . His hate for Jiang Chen now was higher than the mountain and deeper than the sea .

“You won’t have the chance . ”

Jiang Chen crossed his hands behind his back while walking to Desolate Yuan one step after the other, blocking Kong Yang and Leopard Wei from the view . Kong Yu hurriedly stepped forward to pull Kong Yang and the seriously injured Leopard Wei .

“Big brother, are you alright?” Kong Yu was worried .

“I’m fine . ”

Kong Yang shook his head . Then, he and Leopard Wei took out a red pill each and swallowed it to heal their injuries . Kong Yang stared at Jiang Chen’s back and said, “Jiang Chen, you have to be careful . Desolate Yuan has gotten some benefits in this ancient battlefield . He would be a difficult opponent . ”

Even though Jiang Chen had defeated Desolate Yuan, his present strength wasn’t comparable to his previous strength . Well, of course, Kong Yang didn’t know Jiang Chen defeated Desolate Yuan while he was merely an Eighth Grade Minor Saint . It was true that Desolate Yuan had gotten great benefits in this place, but Jiang Chen also got benefits but greater . Jiang Chen had already reached the peak Ninth Grade Minor Saint, which made his combat strength unrivalled . Desolate Yuan was undeniably no match for him .

The two geniuses of Saint Origin Palace were studying Jiang Chen . After returning from Saint Origin Palace, the most they heard was Jiang Chen’s name, his achievements and the feud between him and the five large families .  

“Desolate Yuan, I think this man is a difficult opponent, let us join in the battle . ”

Desolate Cong, the genius of Saint Origin Palace, said while the other genius of Huo Family was ready to move .

“No, don’t interfere with my business . I must kill him myself . ”

Desolate Yuan didn’t accept their help . He didn’t put even the geniuses of Saint Origin Palace in his eyes . Well, it made sense for a number one genius of Desolate Family . He had the right to be this arrogant . He had the right to not put Desolate Cong in his eyes . Although Desolate Cong had gotten a lot of cultivation resources in Saint Origin Palace, he would mostly be defeated by Desolate Yuan if they engaged in a battle .

“You really ought to listen to him though the three of you joining together won’t have much chance either, but it is still better than you fighting me alone . ” Jiang Chen shrugged and said flatly .

“Cut the nonsense . Jiang Chen, die now!”

Desolate Yuan’s Qi shook, his entire body bent and distorted . In the next moment, he materialized before Jiang Chen with boundless energy and launched his most powerful attack . With him as the centre of the attack, a chaotic world was condensed, wrapping Jiang Chen completely . This condensed world was filled with vicious airflow that looked seemingly white . It gave everyone a kind of invisible pressure that bent all sides of the void . Everyone who was affected felt like they had entered some sort of prison . It made them feel incomparably unpleasant .

This was the newest technique of Desolate Yuan . Besides the tremendous pressure in the airflow, there were condensed sharp blades that could crush and kill everything .

“Is that all?”

It didn’t concern Jiang Chen at all . Three golden dragons rushed out his body all of a sudden .

*Roar…*

The three golden dragons let out roars . Jiang Chen also transformed to half-dragon instantly, which boosted his combat strength crazily by tenfold . The indestructible small world was instantly pulverized by the attack of his Golden Dragon Seal, scattering around in small pieces .

*Bang*

The destruction of the condensed small world tremendously affected Desolate Yuan, sending him flying away . His facial expression instantly changed to shock . It was true that he improved a lot within this short period of time, but Jiang Chen’s improvement was greater . Even with his most powerful attack, he was still not a match  for Jiang Chen .

Before Desolate Yuan could react from his shock, Jiang Chen’s body appeared above him and made a trample that carried whirlwind on his body .

“Desolate Yuan, I will not give you the chance to escape this time . ”

Jiang Chen’s face turned cold as he made the Azure Dragon Five Steps violently .

*Bang* First step .

*Bang* Second step .

*Bang* Third step .

*Bang* Fourth step .

Four steps landed on Desolate Yuan in an instant . Each step weighed as much as a hundred thousand kilograms . Desolate Yuan was absolutely powerless . Every step made him spurt blood along with the sound of broken bones . This was truly a tragic scene .

“The fifth step . ”

Jiang Chen was cruel and ruthless . He had always been like this towards his enemy . In the eyes of his enemies, he was the god of killing .

The successive scenes had shocked everyone present . A while ago, they thought that it would be a relatively equal match, but it turned out to be one-sided! Desolate Yuan was so vulnerable in front of Jiang Chen, like a dog that was going to die due to domestic abuse even though the abuse only lasted for a few seconds . This fully illustrated Jiang Chen’s power and Desolate Yuan was certainly not the same level with him .

“Stop!”

When Jiang Chen was about to make the last step on Desolate Yuan, Desolate Cong, who was standing on the side, regained his senses . He immediately drew out his combat weapon and struck at Jiang Chen to save Desolate Yuan from the attack .

“Humph! You will die first . ”

Jiang Chen let out a cold humph and drew out his Heavenly Saint Sword . A brilliant blood-red web of swords straightaway enveloped Desolate Cong that caused his facial expression to change drastically . This situation recalled the remark made by most of his enemies: you won’t know how strong Jiang Chen is until you fight him .

“No!”

Desolate Cong let out a shrill cry but it was over . In the absolute gap of strength, the only thing that awaited him was death . The Heavenly Saint Sword moved too fast, faster than a lightning bolt, and slashed Desolate Cong into half, turning everyone petrified . This genius who had just returned from Saint Origin Palace was killed . No one under the heavens would have such audacity to commit such killing .

Since the establishment of Saint Origin Palace, it became the absolute dominator of Saint Origin World, the supreme power in the world . Although Saint Origin Palace was built by the eight great families of Pure Land, it was detached from these eight families . Desolate Yuan and Desolate Cong were both members of Desolate Family but their statuses were entirely different and each of them represented different power . Jiang Chen killing Desolate Cong meant that he was waging war against the Saint Origin Palace . Jiang Chen was definitely the first person who opposed the Saint Origin Palace openly .

Subsequently, without caring about what other people felt, he made the violent fifth step of the Azure Dragon Five Steps on Desolate Yuan . . .
