Chapter 2695 A Duel with Chu Yan

“Third Prince.” Zhou An, who had regained his senses, looked as pale as a sheet of paper. He looked at the Third Prince of King Qin’s Mansion, and said fearfully, “Your Grace, the Third Prince, I know you’re the witness between our bet, but I didn’t know he’s Duan Ling Tian from the Nine Specters County. If I knew he’s Duan Ling Tian, I wouldn’t have proposed that bet even if the bet is only 5,000 prominent Celestial Stones. This bet isn’t fair at all!” He became more riled up as he spoke. He knew the only person who could make the bet void was the Third Prince. He could go back on his words if it was just Duan Ling Tian alone, and he did not request for the Third Prince to bear witness to their bet.

Before the Third Prince could reply, Huang Guang Ji could not hold back and exclaimed, “This is ridiculous!” He scoffed before he said, “Zhou An, don’t you feel embarrassed for saying such words? Don’t forget you’re the one who initiated this bet. You felt delighted when he agreed to your bet, didn’t you? You thought you’d be able to regain your 50,000 prominent Celestial Stones and some more. Why didn’t you think the bet was unfair at that time? Now that you learned he’s Duan Ling Tian and you’d lost the bet, you’re saying the bet is unfair?” A mocking smile could be seen on his face as he spoke. Then, he turned to the people in the VIP seats and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, may I ask for your opinion if this bet is unfair? Do you think this bet should be voided?”

Huang Guang Ji did not know why the genius, Duan Ling Tian, from Nine Specters County would join their Flying Dragon Sect as a primitive Celestial Alchemist and became a Revered Elder. However, since Duan Ling Tian had joined their sect, he had never done anything harmful to their sect. Instead, he had even refined a batch of extremely high-quality pills for their sect. For this reason, he wholeheartedly supported Duan Ling Tian.

The people from the other forces in the VIP seats had no enmity nor a good relationship with the Flying Dragon Sect or the Poison King Sect. Their words were spoken from a neutral point of view. All of them unanimously felt that Zhou An was shameless and the bet should not be voided.

“I have seen shameless people before but I haven’t seen someone as shameless as Vice Sect Leader Zhou of Poison King Sect!”

“Exactly! How shameless. He’s the one who proposed the bet. Now that he has lost, he wants to go back on his words. How preposterous!”

“I really don’t know why the Poison King Sect would have such a person. Moreover, he’s a vice sect leader. Didn’t he say his brother is the sect leader? So did he become the vice sect leader by relying on his brother?”

“The Poison King Sect is really getting worse. It seems like anyone can be a vice sect leader. What a disgrace to the sect!”

The Third Prince looked at Zhou An and asked indifferently, “So, do you still think the bet can be voided?”

Thud!

As soon as the Third Prince finished speaking, Zhou An whose face turned even paler trembled and fell to the ground. He was so frightened that his legs had lost all strength to stand. ‘500,000 prominent Celestial Stones! 500,000 prominent Celestial Stones!’ When the Third Prince expressed his stance, he knew clearly that the Poison King Sect would have to pay the 500,000 prominent Celestial Stones no matter what. Otherwise, they would risk offending the Third Prince and even King Qin’s Mansion. Although the Poison King Mansion was relatively strong, it was not worth mentioning compared to King Qin’s Mansion. Not to mention King Qin himself, even the Third Prince alone was enough to destroy the Poison King Sect!

The Third Prince said threateningly, “If the 500,000 prominent Celestial Stones aren’t delivered here in a month, I’ll personally lead a group to take it from your Poison King Sect! At that time, the matter wouldn’t just be settled by 500,000 prominent Celestial Stones.” As soon as he finished speaking, he entered the hidden area behind the curtains.

After the Third Prince left, Zhou An rose to his feet as he shuddered. He barked to his subordinates, “Let’s leave!” He no longer wanted to stay and watch the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties. It was not because he could already guess the outcome of the competition, but it was more important for him to speak to his elder brother about what had happened.

Seeing the people from the Poison King Sect leaving in a hurry, the people from Fly Dragon Sect felt smug and satisfied.

“I’ll definitely tell all the junior sisters and brothers about this when I return to the sect. They’ll certainly feel happy! After all, how often can we make the Poison King Sect turn tail and flee.” A disciple of the Flying Dragon Sect smiled proudly.

“Well, it’s all thanks to Revered Elder Tian Ling. Without him, we wouldn’t have this satisfaction.”

“But I really didn’t expect Revered Elder Tian Ling is Duan Ling Tian from Nine Specters County who recently became famous. He’s not even 100 years old but he’s already as strong as a Great Overarching Golden Celestial. Moreover, he’s also an excellent primitive Celestial Alchemist. He’s truly a peerless genius!”

“If you didn’t mention it, I would’ve forgotten Duan Ling Tian is also a primitive ICelestial Alchemist. Not only is he strong, but he’s also a Celestial Alchemist who’s less than 100 years old. He’s a truly peerless genius among all geniuses!”

When the group of Flying Dragon Sect’s disciples looked at Duan Ling Tian who was standing above the arena, their eyes shone with admiration.



Above the arena.

After keeping quiet, Chu Yan broke the silence first. He said in a low voice, “Duan Ling Tian, I heard you’re much stronger than me, but I still want to fight you. If you defeat me, then, you’ll win first. I hope your reputation isn’t unearned!” Battle intent shone in his eyes when he spoke. The Celestial Origin Energy that had been brewing underneath his skin surged out immediately, forming a circle of air currents around his body.

“Please attack,” Duan Ling Tian said indifferently. Although he asked Chu Yan to attack him, there were no signs of him mobilizing his Celestial Origin Energy at all. It was as though he was not bothered by Chu Yan’s attack at all.

Upon seeing this, Chu Yan felt greatly humiliated. Flames of fury rose in his heart as he lunged toward Duan Ling Tian like a lightning bolt. He took out his Celestial Weapon and cast all his Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities without any restraint. However, he was not foolish. Although reputation could be faked, seeing how flippant Duan Ling Tian when faced with his attack, he knew Duan Ling Tian was probably as strong as a Great Overarching Golden Celestial as rumored. For this reason, he did not hold back at all when he attacked Duan Ling Tian. Otherwise, who knew if he would even have a chance to use his techniques later?

Boom!

Chu Yan who lunged at Duan Ling Tian with all his might was like a furious beast. The void shook in his wake, accompanied by a thunderous sound.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

When Chu Yan appeared before Duan Ling Tian, his mighty attack that was as vast as the sea and as loud as thunder crashed down. Just as his attack was about to land on Duan Ling Tian, he discovered Duan Ling Tian still did not show any signs of retaliation or defending himself. Duan Ling Tian, with no hints of Celestial Origin Energy at all, stood motionlessly in the air. Upon seeing this, he felt humiliated again, “Since you’re seeking death, don’t blame me for this!”

In just an instant, Chu Yan’s bulged as if he had transformed into an angry vajra. His attack turned even more explosive, and thunderclouds that seemed to be striking down with tens of thousands of lightning bolts appeared.

“What’s Duan Ling Tian doing? Does he not plan to do anything at all?”

“Although it’s Chu Yan’s first attack, based on his battle with Yang Jin earlier, it’s obvious he’s unleashing all his strength now! It seems like Duan Ling Tian is a bit reckless, right?”

“If I’m not mistaken even a common Violet Sun Golden Celestial might not dare to underestimate Chu Yan’s ultimate attack, right?”

The spectators watched rapturously at the thunderclouds that loomed over Duan Ling Tian.
