Chapter 2627: Chapter 2630: Advancement and Ambush
"Life-and-death duel, fate decides life or death!"
Yuan Kui didn’t even glance at Qin Yuancheng, speaking indifferently.
Chirp!
A terrified bird cry resounded as the Three-legged Golden Crow saw the Divine Dragon approaching, and it was so scared that its entire fiery body trembled uncontrollably. Just like its master, it turned to flee.
Bang!
A sonic boom echoed as the Flame God Dragon suddenly appeared behind the Three-legged Golden Crow, its tail sweeping out fiercely and striking hard upon it.
Roar! free𝑤ebnovel.com
The temperature in the duel area rose instantly as the Three-legged Golden Crow turned into a sky full of flames, ravaging wildly.
The Flame God Dragon inhaled, and the overwhelming flames entered the dragon’s belly in an instant.
Whoosh!
With a flick of its tail, the Flame God Dragon charged towards Qin Yuantang.
"No! Jiang Chen, don’t kill me! If you kill me, the Qin Family will hunt you down relentlessly!"
Qin Yuantang cried out in terror, retreating in panic.
Thud!
A dull sound echoed as Qin Yuantang slammed hard against the light barrier at the region’s edge.
"Jiang Chen, spare Yuantang, and our Qin Family will let bygones be bygones!"
Qin Yuancheng shouted loudly, his face pale with anger.
Jiang Chen glanced indifferently at Qin Yuancheng, chuckling coldly. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
Roar!
The dragon’s roar shook the heavens as the Flame God Dragon opened its mouth wide, biting down on Qin Yuantang.
"No! Ah..."
A heartrending wail echoed as Qin Yuantang was instantly reduced to ashes.
"Bastard!"
Qin Yuancheng roared, his eyes instantly bloodshot, glaring intently at Jiang Chen, enraged at being humiliated by a mere Divine Infant Realm ant, watching helplessly as his brother was slain with no remains!
At this moment, Qin Yuancheng was seething with anger, his face twisted to the extreme!
"Damn! He really killed him?"
"What powerful flames! But with this, Jiang Chen has thoroughly offended the Qin Family!"
"Regardless of whether Jiang Chen makes it to the top five in the competition, he won’t have a good ending!"
"If Jiang Chen makes it to the top five, won’t the Huo Family protect him?"
"Hard to say; didn’t you see no one from the Huo Family spoke up when Jiang Chen was being targeted?"
Jiang Chen’s clean and decisive killing of Qin Yuantang triggered exclamations from the surrounding crowd.
He glanced at the enraged Qin Yuancheng but ignored him, gesturing at the Flame God Dragon to fly back into him.
"Both of you, come at me together!"
Jiang Chen’s gaze indifferently settled on Wu Quxian and Li Wenzhong.
The surrounding crowd’s eyes instantly focused on the two. The light barrier of the life-and-death duel hadn’t dissipated; did they dare to enter?
"I, I won’t fight to the death!"
Wu Quxian’s face turned pale, shouting urgently.
"I concede!"
Li Wenzhong was even more straightforward than Wu Quxian, directly admitting defeat.
"I concede too!"
Realizing, Wu Quxian hurriedly followed suit.
If they fought, they might end up severely injured, and facing Long Yan, conceding wasn’t shameful!
Jiang Chen grinned, ignoring them as he turned to Yuan Kui on the high platform, saluting with his fists. "City Lord Yuan, can I advance directly like this?"
"No, you only fought one match; how can that count as advancing? If it did, everyone would do the same!"
Feng Yunxi gritted her teeth and shouted.
Jiang Chen glanced at Feng Yunxi, not bothering with her, turning instead to stare at Yuan Kui.
"This situation is somewhat special."
Yuan Kui glanced at Feng Yunxi, chuckling lightly. "Fighting just once isn’t enough for a fair advancement. If no one objected, it might not matter, but since someone has, you’ll need to duel the objector."
At this, Feng Yunxi’s expression changed dramatically, urgently turning to Yuan Kui. "City Lord Yuan, there was no such rule before."
"Yes, City Lord Yuan, there was no such rule before!"
Feng Qianwu frowned, looking at Yuan Kui.
"The rules are set by Canglan City, but for such contested rules, I can decide on them."
Yuan Kui spoke calmly.
"Fine, then let’s have a life-and-death duel, Feng Yunxi and I!"
Jiang Chen spoke calmly, turning to face Feng Yunxi, shouting coldly, "Feng Yunxi, life-or-death duel, do you dare?"
Feng Yunxi’s face turned pale, a trace of panic in her eyes.
"Jiang Chen, this is the Canglan Domain, not a place for you to act recklessly!"
Feng Qianwu’s expression darkened, scolding.
"Reckless? Everyone in the duel can propose a life-and-death duel. How am I being reckless? Dare to fight, then fight; if not, refuse. No one is forcing her."
Jiang Chen cast a fleeting glance at Feng Qianwu, then turned to coldly stare at Feng Yunxi. "Feng Yunxi, do you dare? Dare and come, or else get lost!"
"You..."
Bastard! A mere Divine Infant Realm ant dares to insult me in front of so many people? Bastard! Damn bastard!
Feng Yunxi was nearly driven mad with anger. She was a top-tier talent of the Five Great Families, and today she was insulted by a Divine Infant Realm guy she’d normally not even look at?
She wished she could rush up and kill Jiang Chen.
But with limited strength, relying only on Spiritual Fire, she truly didn’t dare to face Jiang Chen.
"Feng Yunxi, if you don’t dare to fight, then do you agree Jiang Chen can advance?"
Yuan Kui’s calm voice echoed, Feng Yunxi glanced at him and then at Jiang Chen, falling silent.
"I declare, Jiang Chen is successfully advancing."
Yuan Kui announced loudly, waving his hand, and the substantial barrier around Jiang Chen weakened slightly.
Jiang Chen gave Feng Yunxi a mocking glance before stepping out of the duel area and heading toward the gathering of other top hundreds.
"You little beast, pay with your life for my brother!"
Suddenly, an angry shout erupted, and an overwhelming aura burst from the crowd, Piao Miao’s aura appearing, causing everyone in the plaza to freeze.
Swish!
Qin Yuancheng’s figure flashed, leaping beside Jiang Chen, viciously striking towards him.
"Jiang Chen, watch out!"
Lei Ling’er exclaimed in shock.
"Presumptuous!"
Yuan Kui roared in anger, moving to rush up, but someone was faster.
When Qin Yuancheng appeared, Jin Ang had already locked onto him. As soon as he sensed the killing intent, Jin Ang immediately targeted him.
Yet Jin Ang did not intimidate Qin Yuancheng. He was waiting for a legitimate chance to kill him.
When Jin Ming and he were scouting for information, they had received some about Jiang Chen, and because of this, they didn’t express too much closeness with Jiang Chen, creating the illusion that the Gold-devouring Rat Clan had little to do with him.
Now, they had achieved their aim.
No matter the other things, they would first take down a Saint!
Buzz!
The moment Qin Yuancheng’s domain erupted, Jin Ang’s also burst forth instantly, his figure vanishing from his seat.
Boom!
A loud explosion spread, and a human figure instantly turned into a blood mist, a storage ring falling into a golden figure’s hand.
The intangible force dissipated, and everyone regained their consciousness, immediately looking toward Jiang Chen.
