Chapter 669: I'll Be Snatching Yours
Xiao Chen left his courtyard and rushed to the mission hall.
As it was the start of the month, there were very few people there. Due to some unspoken rule, regular inner sect disciples had to wait until after the tenth before they accepted missions. They had to let the wealthy disciples and the giants take their pick first.
Xiao Chen had easily defeated Gui Wu and fought with Situ Gang without ending up at a disadvantage. His strength had already been acknowledged. When the inner sect disciples saw him stride in, their expressions merely changed slightly before calming back down.
"I am seeking missions for killing loose cultivators and have contribution points of more than two thousand." Xiao Chen directly informed the black-robed administrator of his requirements.
When the others heard this, their faces filled with astonishment. Missions with over two thousand contribution points were extremely difficult.
But most importantly, the five big faction leaders and Yun Feiyu monopolized them under normal circumstances.
Others could take such missions only if these giants were too busy or did not want them. Otherwise, if these missions were snatched away, the giants would personally seek trouble with the disciples who took the missions.
The black-robed administrator was aware of this unspoken rule but did not care about it. The operating principle of any sect was survival of the fittest. Whosever fist was larger had more sway.
Doing his work as required of him, the administrator proffered a stack of mission sheets that met Xiao Chen's criteria. He said, "You have to be a true inheritor to take missions rewarding three thousand contribution points and above. The remaining are here."
Xiao Chen received the stack and looked through them carefully. After eliminating some extremely time-consuming missions, he chose a total of ten missions and said, "I will take these."
"Xiao Chen, are you seeking death?! How dare you snatch our missions?!"
A ferocious roar came from outside the hall. The origin of the voice was the strongest faction leader, Yu Zhiqiang. When he and the others received word of Xiao Chen's actions, they had all hurried to the hall.
Lan Feichen appeared to be the most furious. He immediately rushed over with giant strides and tried to snatch away the mission sheets in Xiao Chen's hand, disregarding him entirely.
A murderous intent flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes. He casually held the mission sheets behind his back with his left hand and circulated his Vital Qi to his right before pushing forward.
"Bang!"
Xiao Chen's palm landed on Lan Feichen's shoulder. A tremendous force burst forth, sending the off-guard Lan Feichen flying.
As Lan Feichen went flying back, he rammed into various inner sect disciples in the way. The force that knocked him back was outrageously strong.
This sight stunned everyone; it felt like their brains had short-circuited. Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen could knock back Lan Feichen, the leader of one of the five big factions in the inner sect, with a casual push.
The other faction leaders outside the doors were thoroughly astounded as well. Although Lan Feichen had been careless, they had not expected Xiao Chen to oppose him so blatantly in front of everyone.
Xiao Chen had casually pushed Lan Feichen and sent him flying. Furthermore, the force behind the push knocked back all the cultivators in Lan Feichen's way—which was rather horrifying.
"Bang!"
By the time Lan Feichen reacted, he had already flown back a hundred meters. He tried to stop himself, skidding across the ground and giving off 'chi chi' sounds.
This push had not contained any offensive force. All Xiao Chen had done was push, so Lan Feichen did not suffer any harm.
However, this incident made Lan Feichen look lame. Rage built up in his heart. A newcomer inner sect disciple actually humiliated him despite his status! How could he bear it?
"Very good, Xiao Chen. Unexpectedly, you dare to push me. I—"
Before Lan Feichen finished speaking, he saw a figure flash in front of him. Then, a leg tore through space, heading towards him, and a strong wind blew.
This sight greatly astonished Lan Feichen. He had not expected Xiao Chen to be so bold. First, Xiao Chen had pushed him. Then, before Lan Feichen even finished speaking, Xiao Chen took the initiative to attack.
Good, you are the one who attacked first. Even if I cripple you today, reason is on my side. Lan Feichen steeled himself and circulated his Quintessence, preparing to attack.
