The Wolf Clan youth was irritated by Jiang Chen’s words, and he said in a deep voice, “If you are scared, just stay here, and stop trying to act mysteriously.”
The Wolf Clan youth a.s.sumed that Jiang Chen didn’t dare to fight and wanted to wait for the arrival of the eldest sister, before trying to deal with the Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake.
“Didn’t you hear what I just said?” Xiao Xiao was even more displeased, and she felt offended.
“Even if I didn’t hear it, so what?” Jiang Chen conceded one time because he gave respect to their situation. But, if he conceded a second time, it would only seem cowardly. Jiang Chen wouldn’t make a concession! Upon witnessing that Jiang Chen wasn’t willing to obey her, Xiao Xiao raised her brows, while a fiendish aura emanated from her
“Second sister, please don’t get angry. Our proper business is more important, and let’s first deal with the Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake,” Xiao Meng said. Xiao Meng’s mood had already turned for the better since her second sister approved of her arrival here, and she didn’t wish for Jiang Chen to wreck everything.
Jiang Chen came here with Xiao Meng, and that was why if Xiao Meng uttered such a statement, it wasn’t any different to Xiao Xiao than having Jiang Chen concede to her. Xiao Xiao cast a glance at Jiang Chen. She seemed disinclined to look further into this matter.
“It’s really…” Yiya was displeased by Xiao Meng. Xiao Meng had sacrificed Jiang Chen to quell Xiao Xiao’s anger.
“I just don’t want this matter to worsen.” Xiao Meng used a sound transmission to explain this matter to them, and she expressed that she didn’t have the intention they a.s.sumed.
“You don’t need to explain anything,” Jiang Chen said.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Meng was taken aback and didn’t know how she should interpret such words. But the first feeling she had was still a twinge of conscience.
At this moment, the teams that had around 100 experts looked at the Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake, and they all planned to attack it.
Jiang Chen was still unmoved, and there wasn’t any fighting spirit emanating from him. He really didn’t plan to fight!
The other people treated him disdainfully due to this, and they all a.s.sumed that he was afraid of the Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake.
“Jiang Chen.” Yiya was aware that Jiang Chen wasn’t someone who would get scared easily, and that was why she was confused by this.
“You will just waste your energy. But, you can still give it a try.” This was Jiang Chen’s reply.
“Okay!” Yiya was confused by this. Since they had come here, Jiang Chen’s behavior had been bewildering.
“Let’s fight!” The Wolf Clan youth pa.s.sed down an order and took the lead, while holding a curved blade. The blade shone with a bright light that rivaled the moon’s radiance, and it illuminated the dusky b.l.o.o.d.y Sea Realm.
The Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake also detected the moonlight, and it waved around its robust giant body, which was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with power. The s.p.a.ce membrane around the snake seemed like a house that would collapse at any moment.
The teams attacked from different directions, and a great disturbance arose in the battlefield. Jiang Chen felt like he had gone back to the ancient era and was witnessing the fights of the Human Clan warriors against the evil beasts, which were recorded in books. In those records, the warriors always had to pay a grave price to get a victory, and it was also the case in reality. The Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake was stronger than they had imagined, and such power was demonstrated well in both its defensive and offensive aspects.
All the attacks that fell on the Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake would give rise to faint ripples and wouldn’t leave any wound on him. While the chilly air emanating from the Demonic Flood Snake would lower the temperature drastically, and the people’s limbs were become frozen slightly and numb.
Casualties quickly appeared among them, and their situation was getting worse and worse. After less than 15 minutes pa.s.sed, the people came back with their tails between their legs, and they were all dejected.
“This beast’s skin is too thick. We can’t penetrate it at all!”
“Is it a secret technique? It’s impossible for us to fail to leave any injuries on it.”
“We can’t find any way to surmount it.”
Many complaints echoed, and even the confident Wolf Clan youth was dejected.
All of a sudden, when those people went back to the distant place, they noticed that Jiang Chen was still standing here. Even though Jiang Chen didn’t wear any expression on his face, many people couldn’t help but fly into anger out of humiliation due to an unknown reason. As they thought about what Jiang Chen had said previously, they couldn’t help but guess that he was surely pleased with himself and was mocking them.
“You have just guessed correctly, and you are still a coward, who didn’t dare to even fight.”
“There is a difference between failing to defeat something and not even daring to fight it.”
They started trying to cause trouble for Jiang Chen.
“Hey, Jiang Chen hasn’t said anything,” Yiya spoke out of displeasure. Yiya’s words stumped the people denouncing Jiang Chen.
But when they were just about to let go of this matter, Xiao Ya intervened. “He’s surely laughing at us.”
“That is right, aren’t you now mocking us because we didn’t listen to you?”
“If you are skilled, why don’t you charge it?”
Denunciations arose once again, and they mostly came from the people who Jiang Chen had ordered previously to shut up.
“Since you can discern how powerful is the Demonic Flood Snake, why don’t you show us your ability?” The Wolf Clan youth strode forward to the front and challenged Jiang Chen to hide his embarra.s.sment.
“Who among you is a Sacred Lord?” Jiang Chen asked. He was asking about who among them got a Sacred Spirit’s recognition and didn’t just come here to train. The crowd quieted for a moment, before five people walked out from among them. They were the Wolf Clan youth, Yun Tiange, as well as three other strangers.
“It’s still tolerable. If it wasn’t just limited to this, the Nine Realms would be probably done for.” Jiang Chen was relieved to see that there were only five Sacred Lords among this mob.
The crowd was taken aback, and, at first, they didn’t clearly understand what he implied. But after they realized what he meant, they all flew into a rage.
“If you are skilled, charge at it!”
“That is right, let’s see how amazing is the guy who got a Saint Aura.”
“You aren’t allowed to refuse this.”
Those people wanted to force Jiang Chen to fight the Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake so that he would get the same end as them, and it was only then would they feel at ease. However, the issue was that if Jiang Chen went there alone, his end wouldn’t be as simple as a failure. It was difficult for them to pacify the angered crowd, and Yiya and the others didn’t have any way of dealing with this.
Jiang Chen shook his head and walked toward the crowd. The crowd went into an uproar, and the people standing at the front became solemn as if they were facing a great enemy. When there were less than ten meters between Jiang Chen and the Wolf Clan youth, he came to a stop.
“What do you want?” The Wolf Clan youth asked.
“If you don’t make way for me, how can I get there?” Jiang Chen asked back.
The crowd exclaimed in alarm. Would Jiang Chen really go there? They were all skeptical of this, but the Wolf Clan youth still made way for him, and it was also the case for the people behind him. Jiang Chen seemed like he was escorted by the crowd as he walked among them, and he flew toward the Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake.
“This is…” Yiya was slightly worried, yet she was still full of expectation—even though she didn’t know what she expected or awaited.
The Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake was still waving its tail crazily, and its big lantern-like eyes were filled with madness. The Demonic Flood Snake, who had a.s.sumed that the fight had come to an end, noticed something coming toward it, and it flew into a rage. The whole void was shaken then, and peerless power was about to erupt out of it.
The crowd looked at Jiang Chen’s back. They all wanted to see whether he possessed any great magical ability since he dared to challenge the Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake alone.
“If he can deal with it, he must be at least a Martial Saint, and this is an impossible matter.” The Wolf Clan youth clung to his view, and his face was filled with contempt.
Jiang Chen quickly reached that area, and he then released his Dipper Energy to resist the void’s force.
Meanwhile, the Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake attacked him ruthlessly, and it even pounced on him. Since the flood snake was facing a single person, it charged forward with its full power, and the destructive power it released was greater than it used against all the previous people. Regardless of how they observed this matter, it seemed impossible for Jiang Chen to turn the tide of battle.
“Xuan Yun, it’s me.”
The measure adopted by Jiang Chen dumbfounded everybody. He had just uttered several words.
“What the h*ll?”
The people behind Jiang Chen were stunned. Was Jiang Chen trying to chat with a ferocious beast?
However, an unbelievable sight occurred then, as the Heaven Rending Demonic Flood Snake came to an abrupt stop and stopped its attack. Its power was released on its left and right sides, and they formed many ripples with power great enough to exterminate everything.
However, Jiang Chen who was standing in front of the snake didn’t suffer any mishap.
“Sigh!” Jiang Chen heaved a sigh of relief, as he looked at the Demonic Flood Dragon.
