Chapter 792: Pang Xiong

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Impatiently, the youth shook off the hand of his friend who was supporting him, before he strode forward several steps and stared at Jiang Chen’s badge. Next, he stared at Jiang Chen with a skeptical gaze.

All of a sudden, he recalled something, and his eyes got wide. He said, “Are you Jiang Chen?”

Since Jiang Chen was known as the youngest Heaven Alchemist, he had obviously captured people’s attention, and it wasn’t strange for the youth to guess it after mulling over it for a moment.

“I was just wondering….” The youth cast a glance at Ji Yinyi, and he suddenly felt like he had figured out why this woman had treated him coldly and disdainfully. Thus, he couldn’t help but blame Jiang Chen for everything.

He would never figure out that the reason why Ji Yinyi had ignored him was just that she didn’t care about him at all.

“Isn’t there anyone skilled in the Elixir Association? Why would they ask someone like you to participate in the contest?” The youth spoke mockingly.

Heaven Alchemists were all requested to make at the very least a single Heaven Elixir. However, because luck played a major role in its production, they would end up failing many times. Thus, they would need to spend much time just to succeed once to get a Heaven Alchemist’s title.

The youth assumed that Jiang Chen was such a person because no one had witnessed him making a Heaven Elixir. It was the Elixir Association alone that stated that he was a Heaven Alchemist.

There were even people who suspected that it was a facade made up by the Elixir Association to deal with the Elixir Fire Union’s provocation. One of the main reasons why the Elixir Fire Union was provoking the Elixir Association was because the former was stating that the latter’s rank system was rigid, and it was difficult for youth to get a good status in it and get the limelight. Therefore, the Elixir Association needed someone like Jiang Chen to inform people that that wasn’t really the case.

“I’m still many times better than a ruffian like you,” Jiang Chen said.

Jiang Chen’s words picked at the youth’s sore spot, and the latter took another look at Ji Yinyi. He snorted and was just about to speak.

“Before you start barking, it would better for you to have a clear look at your current situation. I don’t mind at all breaking your four limbs,” Jiang Chen said.

It was really funny for a Reaching Heaven Realm guy to clamor in front of him just by depending upon his status as a Heaven Alchemist.

The youth suddenly thought back to the rumors about Jiang Chen. He was a person who dared to kill even Young Master Shenji.

“Do you feel like you are quite amazing? How can you speak to my friend like this?” Another youth unexpectedly descended from the sky. He wore Spirit Clothes, had a tall stature, handsome features, and an outstanding bearing. This youth was a Celestial Venerable, and a powerful stifling pressure was emanating from him.

It was normal for a Heaven Alchemist to manage to befriend someone at such a Realm, as once they were bullied or insulted, it was usually those friends who would step forth for them.

“At least, I’m stronger than your friend,” Jiang Chen said.

“And how strong are you in comparison to me?” The youth chuckled disdainfully, while wearing a prideful look.

“How can I know, I don’t know even your surname. Your current prideful look is really ridiculous,” Jiang Chen said.

“I’m Pang Xiong,” the youth replied coldly.

Upon hearing that, Jiang Chen didn’t react at all, while the crowd around him exclaimed in alarm.

“Is he Pang Xiong? A genius ranked among the top tenth in knifemen ranking?”

“It is no wonder that he seems this extraordinary.”

“Even though they are both Celestial Venerables, Jiang Chen is still a far cry from him.”

Upon hearing the crowd’s discussion, Jiang Chen learned that this guy was also an influential figure. Moreover, since he was this famous in the Three Emperors Territory, he was surely not a weakling.

What was really interesting was that when Jiang Chen had a look at the youth’s Realm, he discovered that he was also at the early stage of the Celestial Venerable Realm just like himself. As he thought back to the facts that Young Master Shenji was at the late stage of Celestial Venerable and Situ Feng was at the middle stage of the Celestial Venerable. Now, even someone at the early stage came at him. His opponents’ Realms was becoming lower and lower.

When they were still at daggers drawn, a team of golden-armored soldiers arrived in an orderly fashion. They were responsible for protecting the Elixir Emperor’s former residence, and they didn’t belong to any of the Three Middle Realms’ factions.

“If you want to fight, fight outside, and if you want to quarrel, quarrel outside, or else you will be all killed mercilessly.”

No matter if it was the Heaven Alchemist Jiang Chen or Pang Xiong, who possessed a great status, they would still be both attacked ruthlessly if they dared to create a disturbance in the Elixir Emperor’s former residence. Pang Xiong curbed himself in front of them, and he left along with the other Heaven Alchemist. Jiang Chen did the same, going to the street outside the residence.

Pang Xiong hadn’t left as he expected; he was waiting for him there.

Upon witnessing Jiang Chen coming out, he took big strides forward and went up to him imposingly.

“Why don’t we compete against each other?” Pang Xiong asked.

“Or why don’t you have a match with me?” The Heaven Alchemist strode forward too. He said, “Let’s see what’s so extraordinary about this guy titled as the youngest Heaven Alchemist.”

“How about it? You have two choices, and you can choose either one you want. You can either compete with your martial power or with your skill. Which one you will choose?” Pang Xiong said.

Some busybodies had followed them out of the residence, and they were all waiting calmly for Jiang Chen’s reply.

Jiang Chen said, “I’m just concerned about a single matter – what will I get if I defeat you?”

“What do you mean? Do you still want to get some profits?” Pang Xiong asked in confusion.

“I’m aware of those matches’ outcomes, and competing with you will just waste my energy. So if you both want to know the disparity between us, you must pay for it,” Jiang Chen said.

Upon hearing him, the crowd began to know Jiang Chen anew. He was both young and arrogant.

Both Pang Xiong and the Heaven Alchemist were infuriated by him, and they both assumed that Jiang Chen was just looking for an excuse to refuse.

“You should better stop bluffing in front of me. What do you want? State it bluntly,” the Heaven Alchemist spoke angrily.

“It will depend upon what you all have,” Jiang Chen replied.

Pang Xiong and the Heaven Alchemist exchanged a glance, and they started communicating with their Holy Awarenesses.

“Your Elixir Fire Union is really shameless.” A pleasant-sounding voice suddenly drifted over to them, as a beautiful woman led a team and rushed over.

“So, you were just stalling for time, weren’t you? Coward.” Upon witnessing the woman, Pang Xiong realized that he couldn’t fight, and he spoke while pointing at Jiang Chen.

“She’s the Elixir Association’s Yan Ruyu; she’s President Bai Xuan’s beloved disciple,” Ji Yinyi said in a low voice.

This woman was a rare beauty as her name implied. She was tall, fair, and had a beauty that would captivate birds and beasts alike. She had come here to help Jiang Chen get out of this trouble, but when the latter looked at her, she didn’t look at him nicely at all.

“Are you all trying to take advantage of this opportunity to wear out our Elixir Association’s Heaven Alchemist?” Yan Ruyu stood in front of Jiang Chen and looked imposingly at the two men before her.

“It’s your Heaven Alchemist, who is arrogant, conceited, and doesn’t know his limits,” Pang Xiong said.

“Is that the case? Why, I heard that it was you all who looked for trouble first. Moreover, you immediately showed yourself just after he revealed his true status and wanted to challenge him to a battle. Doesn’t this seem fishy to you all?” Yan Ruyu retorted.

Jiang Chen also found this matter plausible.It was fine if it was just Pang Xiong alone who wanted to fight with him, but then the Heaven Alchemist joined in and wanted to compete with him in alchemy techniques. It was obvious that he wanted to see how skilled he was.

This was the reason why Yan Ruyu was resentful. She felt like Jiang Chen was too shallow and couldn’t bear people’s provocations and pay attention to the bigger picture. However, as a matter of fact, Jiang Chen was completely capable of playing with this Heaven Alchemist without even revealing his true skill.

As for the fight with Pang Xiong? He didn’t fear it at all. If he was afraid of such a person, what could he do then in the Title Battle when he would run into the Spirit Clan’s geniuses?

“In the end, it’s just a boring matter, as someone just wants to continue hiding behind a woman’s back.”

Pang Xiong didn’t continue arguing with her, and a cold glint flickered in his eyes as he looked at Jiang Chen disdainfully and mockingly.

“Okay!” When Jiang Chen was just about to reply, Yan Ruyu spoke before him. “Let’s leave!”
