The Brilliant Fighting Master - Chapter 781

Chapter 781


The group arrived in the Three Emperor Territory after traveling through the Desolate Forbidden Land . According to the trapezoid theory of the Nine Territories, this area was the central area, next to the Three Middle Realms .

"President, I need to go to the Xiahous . " Jiang Chen didn't forget about the favor that Venerable Fengyu had asked of him after arriving in the Three Emperor Territory .

Yang Jingchi didn't stop him when he learned what it was about . He said, "The competition will start in fifteen days in the Heaven Divine City . Don't be late . "

"No problem . "

Then Yang Jingchi gave him a map of the Three Emperor Territory before parting ways with him . Jiang Chen knew the location of the Xiahous through the map .

The Xiahous weren't a paramount power in the Three Emperor Territory, but they were almost as powerful as the Jiangs .

The Three Emperor Territory was so spacious and there were so many outstanding people there that it wasn't easy at all for any force to be the greatest .

Two days later, Jiang Chen arrived in the main city that belonged to the Xiahous . He told the family who he was, then a team formed of Martial Venerables took him to a manor situated in the mountains .

The Martial Venerable team led him to the door of the manor and then left . To his surprise, the door was suddenly open, and a group of people walked out of it towards him .

Jiang Chen took a closer look at them and found it was a big family . There were men and women, old and young .

They were followed by a great Venerable dressed like a butler and bodyguards flanking them .

The middle-aged man leading the group said warmly, "Young Master Jiang Chen, welcome . "

Judging from his clothes, state, and injuries, Jiang Chen supposed he was the lord of the Xiahous . That meant the Xiahous were receiving him in their most solemn manner .

Jiang Chen didn't feel flattered, but compared to what he had experienced before, this was quite unusual .

Oh yeah, I'm the Martial Sovereign's follower . Jiang Chen realized the reason very soon .

He also tumbled to the realization that Young Master Shenji had gone to the Cliff Mountain to show his strength because feeling respected was addictive . People just couldn't help but indulge in the pleasure brought by it .

Fortunately, as the First Young Master of the Sacred Zone in his previous life, Jiang Chen didn't cling to this feeling .

"Lord Xiahou, sorry for the disturbance," he said, neither too humble nor too arrogant .

"Not at all . It's our honor to have Young Master Jiang Chen here," Lord Xiahou said .

"Young Master, we're counting on you to treat our lord . " There was a pretty woman about Jiang Chen's age standing beside Lord Xiahou .

"What is this? Our guest has just arrived here . Stop pressuring him!" Lord Xiahou gave the woman a scolding . With his face long, he looked quite unhappy with what the woman had said .


"Lord, I'm just worried about you," the woman said in a sweet voice .

"Apologize to Young Master Jiang Chen," Lord Xiahou said .



"No, no, you don't have to," Jiang Chen said, apparently embarrassed .

Then Jiang Chen was invited into the manor with a solemn ceremony .

The manor was sumptuous . There was a great mountain view, but more than that, it even became a part of the mountain view . The whole place was magnificent and majestic .

The way Lord Xiahou treated the guests was also a bit special . Showing Jiang Chen around, he introduced everything about the manor to the latter .

Jiang Chen enjoyed the warmth at first, but gradually, he started to feel uncomfortable with it . The Xiahous' big group walking behind them made him especially uneasy .

These people were all lavishly dressed . The jewelry the women were wearing glittered . No matter what they were doing, as long as Jiang Chen looked over at them, they would smile back .

The Martial Sovereign's follower has a great charm, Jiang Chen couldn't help but exclaim to himself again .

In the end, the group finally came to the hall of the manor and sat down at a long table . Lord Xiahou started to introduce the family to Jiang Chen .

"Xue'er isn't here?" Lord Xiahou said unhappily .

"Lord, the young lady said she was at a crucial moment of practice," the butler said, bewildered .

"We have an important guest here . Doesn't she know any courtesy?" Lord Xiahou said unhappily .

"Lord Xiahou, it's not a problem at all . I have other things to do, too . Why don't we start the treatment right away?" Jiang Chen said politely .



"No, Young Master Jiang Chen . You have to stay here for a month so that I can entertain you well," Lord Xiahou said .

"To be honest, I'll take part in the competition held in the Heaven Divine City . "

"The competition between the Elixir Fire Union and the Elixir Association? I heard about that . "

Nodding, Lord Xiahou said seriously, "Young Master Jiang Chen, I really appreciate that you came here to visit me at such a crucial moment . "

Then Jiang Chen asked about his situation, but it seemed that Lord Xiahou didn't take it seriously . If Jiang Chen hadn't sensed his injuries, he would doubt whether it was a scheme against him .

Soon, he gradually realized why the lord was behaving this way; Lord Xiahou actually wanted to set him up with his daughter named Xue'er .

Then Jiang Chen cast the woman sitting next to Lord Xiahou a glance . They looked like father and daughter, but they were quite intimate . He wouldn't join such a family, regardless .

However, Lord Xiahou was trying so hard to get a son-in-law who was a Martial Sovereign's follower .

After the dinner, Lord Xiahou said, "Jiang Chen, do you want to take a look at my collection?" Although it was a question, his warmth didn't leave Jiang Chen any room to decline him .

"Of course . "

So, after walking through multiple layers of guards, the two came into a small and narrow but extremely safe back room .

The Xiahous were as famous as the Jiangs, although they didn't look like a big force judging from the way they entertained Jiang Chen . However, all of the displeasure Jiang Chen had had was gone as soon as he saw the treasures in the back room . His eyes were caught by them right away .



"Jiang Chen, you are a master of fire . I'm guessing you'll definitely like this piece of treasure . " Lord Xiahou was quite happy with his reaction and took Jiang Chen to the center of the back room .

"Gosh!" Jiang Chen held his breath and felt his blood boiling . The Day-burning Evil Flame in his body was going to burn again .

"All of these treasures are dowries I've prepared for my daughter . "

Lord Xiahou thought it was time . Patting Jiang Chen on his shoulder, he said, "However, over the years, I haven't seen anyone who deserved my daughter . Most of the young masters of those aristocratic families are dishonorable underneath their veneers, but you're different .

"As long as you want, the Xiahous will be your support . "

"You mean as long as I say yes, all this will be mine?" Jiang Chen asked .

"Of course," Lord Xiahou said complacently .

Glancing at the five treasures in the back room, Jiang Chen swallowed his saliva . It would be a lie if he refused to admit he wasn't tempted, but he would in no way say yes .

"Lord Xiahou, this offer has come so suddenly . Please give me some time to think it over . I'll give you my answer on the day I leave," Jiang Chen said .

He wasn't really going to think it over . It was only out of respect for Lord Xiahou . If he had refused the latter directly, the latter would be embarrassed .

"Of course . Please take your time . After all, you haven't even met my daughter yet . " Lord Xiahou thought he was afraid his daughter could be ugly . Regarding this, he wasn't worried at all .

"So, let's start the treatment," Jiang Chen said .

"Sure . " It seemed that Lord Xiahou had forgotten about the objective of Jiang Chen's visit . Not until then did he recall it .
