Luo Chen’s words immediately made Elder Jin and Yang Fuyun somewhat unable to save face. After all, they were actually people of status and standing, but they had broken their word. They had indeed lost at that time, but it was impossible for them to actually cut off their own heads. Actually, it would have been better not to mention it, and the matter would have passed, but unexpectedly, just after mocking Luo Chen, he brought it up in front of a large crowd. Instantly, Elder Jin and Yang Fuyun’s faces turned red, after all, there were too many acquaintances here. However, as soon as Elder Jin and Yang Fuyun thought about it, they sneered again. After all, you, Luo Wuji, absolutely could not go back alive today.
“Hmph, so what if we let you be smug for a little longer?” Elder Jin sneered.
“Are you not formidable, Luo Wuji?”
“Are you not arrogant, Luo Wuji?”
“You have this day too?” Elder Jin snorted coldly.
“Luo Wuji, Luo Wuji, when you slapped me and forced me to kneel that day, did you ever think you would face this end today?” Yang Fuyun also sneered.
“End?” Luo Chen glanced mockingly at Elder Jin and Yang Fuyun.
“I am actually quite curious, what kind of end will I face today?”
“What kind of end?”
“Luo Wuji, do you think you can still leave here alive today now that we are all here?” Elder Jin mocked.
“Open your eyes wide and look clearly, you are dead for sure today.”
“Do you still think you are the pinnacle of China?”
“You are now nothing but a cripple with all your cultivation gone. Luo Wuji, Luo Wuji, I actually quite admire you. With death imminent, you are still so calm?”
“Do you think you can still slap me like you did on the grasslands?”
“Slap!” A loud sound of a slap rang out, and Elder Jin was directly knocked to the ground by this palm strike.
Before Yang Fuyun could even react, a palm also landed on his face.
“Bang!”
The two of them were knocked to the ground one after the other. The two of them only knew that Luo Chen had been rejected, but they knew nothing of the details, so they did not know that Luo Chen could use his special abilities. Luo Chen could strike Emperor Howard, who had level eight combat power, with a single slap, leaving him utterly unable to fight back. Beating Elder Jin and Yang Fuyun was naturally a piece of cake!
“How is it?” Luo Chen looked coldly at Elder Jin and Yang Fuyun, who had fallen to the ground.
“I could beat you that day, and I can beat you today as well!”
“What immense audacity, daring to hit people in front of this old man?” Qing Deng’s expression instantly became sharp, and streaks of sword qi burst from his body.
This immediately scared the people around into retreating far away, because the sword qi was truly too oppressive, and many people were extremely terrified.
“Do not rush, your turn will come soon.” Luo Chen did not care at all.
“Cough, cough…” Elder Jin and Yang Fuyun were beaten by Luo Chen and kept coughing up blood, staining the green stone slabs of the square red.
“Good, very good!”
“Luo Wuji, however many slaps you gave me, I will definitely return them all today!” Elder Jin’s expression became extremely gloomy, with overwhelming killing intent!
“I will…”
“Enough!” Lu Chuan stepped forward to block him.
“Whatever the matter is, wait until this instruction is over before speaking.” Lu Chuan looked at Luo Chen, and then walked up to him.
“Luo Chen, my Lu family was somewhat in the wrong regarding yesterday’s matter. Actually, I still appreciate you quite a bit.”
“However, this is, after all, the Cultivator Grand Gathering. Although I am the host now, even if my relationship with you is excellent, I must preside impartially and cannot speak on your behalf.”
“But, Shuixian’s words just now represent the attitude of the Lu family.”
“If you are willing to agree, I will at least have a reason to speak for you.”
“Your reliance is nothing but special abilities. However, you should know that so called special abilities are merely a crude utilisation of the power of heaven and earth, and are simply not worth mentioning in the face of profound and extensive mystical arts.”
“And you should know the strength of Elder Qing Deng better than I do. Although you can beat Emperor Howard without him being able to fight back, facing Elder Qing Deng, you have absolutely no chance of winning!” Lu Chuan said with sound reasoning.
This statement was not false. If Luo Chen could only display the special ability strength he used to beat Emperor Howard yesterday, then Luo Chen would not be able to last half a move against Qing Deng today. After all, Qing Deng had been famous for a long time, and he also knew the sword techniques of the Kunlun Sword Palace! It could even be said that his way of the sword had been practised to the pinnacle, after all, being able to condense sword qi already proved the high level of his swordsmanship attainment. Pure special abilities against Qing Deng would absolutely leave one with no power to fight back.
“Have you said enough?” Luo Chen, however, gave a cold sneer.
“Your Lu family, sigh, I hope your Lu family looks out for yourselves.” Luo Chen sighed.
In fact, the old Celestial Master had truly taken extreme care of the Lu family. Having the Lu family form a marriage alliance with him meant that once the matter succeeded, the biggest beneficiary would not be the Celestial Master Mansion, but rather the Lu family itself! Unfortunately, the people of the Lu family did not think so. They not only missed the opportunity, but also wasted the painstaking efforts of the old Celestial Master. It was likely that the old Celestial Master had also given up, otherwise, regarding the annulment yesterday, the old Celestial Master would surely have stepped forward. As for today’s Cultivator Grand Gathering, it was Luo Chen who had requested the old Celestial Master not to step forward for the time being. Because Luo Chen actually wanted to see exactly how many people in the cultivation world wanted to put him to death! Luo Chen was not stupid, nor was he a soft hearted person. As long as those people dared to show their heads, what they would face next would be his thunderous retaliation! Regarding the matter of Elder Yuan personally visiting to provide medical treatment, Luo Chen did not believe at all that this was a scheme these fools could have come up with! There must definitely be others behind this! Today’s Cultivator Grand Gathering was originally a trap set by those people to eliminate him! But how was this not also a trap set by Luo Chen himself to eliminate those people? Could he, Luo Wuji, really be calculated by these people?
Hearing Luo Chen’s words, Lu Chuan immediately frowned. Finally, he gave a cold sneer, stepped back, and walked directly to the edge. In his view, this Luo Wuji simply would not shed a tear until he saw the coffin! Once Qing Deng made his move later, he would know exactly how stupid he was, and exactly how arrogant those words just now were! Telling his Lu family to look out for themselves? You, Luo Wuji, cannot even protect yourself today, and you still dare to speak such arrogant words?
As soon as Lu Chuan stepped back, everyone retreated far back again, leaving a large open space for Luo Chen and Qing Deng.
“Actually, you can be considered quite a task. My disciple’s grandson could not even last a single move in your hands.” Qing Deng stood with his hands behind his back, not making a direct move yet. After all, he was an elder and would not do something like a sneak attack.
“If you were given some time, there would truly be no one in this cultivation world who could deal with you.”
“Unfortunately, you are too sharp and do not know how to be tactful.”
“Showing no respect for your elders!”
“Relying on some unorthodox methods, and even this special ability, you think you are truly invincible in the world?”
“Today, this old man will open your eyes and let you experience what orthodox mystical arts truly are!” As Qing Deng sneered, a streak of sword qi condensed in his hand.
