“Impossible! This is absolutely impossible. How can there be such a scary person?”
That genius shook his head in disbelief, he couldn’t accept such a result and reality. There was no way he wouldn’t be shocked by the scene, because this had gone beyond the understanding of people. No one had ever seen such an abnormal person.
“I have told you two to leave, but you refused to. You don’t have the chance now even if you want to.”
Jiang Chen withdrew his Qilin Arm. The Heavenly Saint Sword appeared in his hands. He no longer needed the Qilin Arm to kill this genius. Besides, casting both the Qilin Divine Arm and the True Dragon Combat Technique had consumed tremendous amount of his energy, and as a result, the enemy had suffered heavy injuries. It would be effortless for Jiang Chen to take his life now.
*Howl!*
The Heavenly Saint Sword let out a sword cry and turned into a blood-red dragon, reaching above the head of the genius in the blink of an eye. The speed was so fast that the genius didn’t have time to react.
“This is bad!”
The genius felt a strong threat of death that shook even his soul. That was an unprecedented feeling of the the Qi of death.
He knew his current situation very clearly. He shouldn’t face Jiang Chen head on this time, or else, his life would be in danger. He swayed his body, tore open the void and fled to a far distance, attempting to dodge the slash of his enemy.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t that easy to dodge Jiang Chen’s slash. The scary sword Qi had already locked everything. It was difficult to escape from this slash even if one had gone inside the void.
*Pu!*
“Argh!”
Along with a wail, the genius’ body was slashed in half. Blood gushed out frenziedly. All the internal organs flew outwards, making the scene incredibly b.l.o.o.d.y. His face was full of dread. Such an injury was too severe. But then, to a half-step Immortal Emperor, losing half of his body wouldn’t cause him death. As long as he could escape, there was still a chance and possibility of recovery in the future.
Unfortunately, Jiang Chen wouldn’t give him this chance.
*Swoos.h.!.+*
Almost at the moment the genius’ body was slashed in half, Jiang Chen made the second slash. This time, the genius had nowhere to run. He was instantly beheaded and died on the spot.
Nanbei Yitu and the other genius who saw the scene was dumbfounded. They had never thought that Jiang Chen would be so powerful. Jiang Chen had gotten rid of one of their supreme geniuses in such a short period of time.
“Son of a b*tch!”
Nanbei Yitu raged and lunged towards Jiang Chen. Apart from astonishment, he also felt anger. There was no way he wouldn't be angered. That was the genius he brought himself. If he couldn’t take Jiang Chen back at the end of the day, he would lose all his face and be punished by Young Master Chao. Thinking about the terrible means of Young Master Chao made him s.h.i.+ver.
“Nanbei Yitu, your opponent is me. We haven’t even decided yet who the winner is.”
Yang Bufan blocked Nanbei Yitu. How could he give Nanbei Yitu the chance to kill Jiang Chen? As a matter of fact, the scene of Jiang Chen killing one of Nanbei Family’s geniuses astounded him, especially the power of the Qilin Divine Arm which he had seen for the first time.
“Scram!”
Nanbei Yitu yelled, then lunged at Yang Bufan. Instantly, both of them went back into their intense and inextricable fight.
On the other side, Jiang Chen paid no attention to Nanbei Yitu’s threat. His eyes turned to the other half-step Immortal Emperor genius. He stepped towards the genius holding his sword.
The genius’ expression changed drastically. He looked at Jiang Chen the way he had looked at a ghost. The current Jiang Chen was an unparalleled devil king and a supreme G.o.d of slaughter in his eyes. After witnessing the scene of Jiang Chen killing his own comrade, he was almost certain that he was no match for the enemy. Besides, there was also one horrifying big yellow dog next to Jiang Chen. If Nanbei Yitu would not come to his aid, he was afraid that he would end up like his comrade – he would die a tragic death under Jiang Chen’s sword.
“Nanbei Mu, leave here now. Don’t go head on with him!”
Nanbei Yitu urged. By this time, even a fool could see that if Nanbei Mu didn’t escape, there was basically no more chance for him to leave. He would only become a corpse by staying. Jiang Chen was a ruthless individual that dared to touch even the Fire Qilin. Killing the two geniuses of Nanbei Family would be nothing to him.
“Alright.”
Nanbei Mu nodded. Without neglect, he tore open the void and dived into it.
“You still want to leave at this time? Too slow.”
Jiang Chen withdrew his sword and struck out the Qilin Divine Arm, at the same time, he went into the void in a flash.
*Hong Long……*
Horrifying energy flowed out from the void, making the sky and ground crack. A huge crater was created in the void. Then, two silhouettes exited it. One of them looked absolutely floundered and was covered in blood. Who would he be if he wasn’t Nanbei Mu?
Opposite Nanbei Mu, Jiang Chen’s face was cold and deadly whereas Nanbei Mu’s face was extremely ugly and his eyes were full of fear. Initially, he didn’t put Jiang Chen in his eyes and didn’t think that this would be the outcome. He had flourished well in Nanbei Family and reached half-step Immortal Emperor realm at a young age. He was considered to have inestimable future. Besides, he had great hopes and imagination for his future and never thought that he would die some day or that the day of his death would be so soon or that he would die in this way.
“Save me, Brother Yitu!”
Nanbei Mu yelled at Nanbei Yitu. He didn’t want to die. In the face of the ferocious enemy, he knew he had absolutely no hope of escaping. At this time, only Nanbei Yitu could save his life. If Nanbei Yitu couldn’t save him, he would definitely die.
“Stop!”
Nanbei Yitu clamoured. His eyes almost spurted out fire as he looked at Jiang Chen. Given Nanbei Mu’s cultivation base, he couldn’t have thought that Nanbei Mu didn’t even have the chance to escape.
“Yang Bufan, let’s forget about today’s matter. Let me bring Nanbei Mu back.”
Nanbei Yitu was asking for a compromise. One had to say that this was a smart choice. Certainly, he wanted to capture Jiang Chen, but with the presence of Yang Bufan, this wish had become unrealistic. Initially he thought that Nanbei Mu and the other one was enough to deal with Jiang Chen. In the blink of an eye, one was dead. And now, Nanbei Mu was going to be killed by Jiang Chen, too. Seeking a compromise was the only way at this point.
Since he couldn’t kill Jiang Chen, keeping Nanbei Mu alive became the most important thing. Anyway, he had already known the whereabouts of the Fire Qilin. It was only a matter of time before Jiang Chen was sentenced to death for offending Nanbei Family.
