Chapter 103: Chapter 96: You Crave a Defeat, and I Shall Oblige
"How could he not be interested? Chen Xuan defeated Cousin Jinglan!"
"Yeah!"
"Did you not tell him that Chen Xuan beat Cousin Jinglan?"
The crowd was in shock.
"I did, but that’s what he said."
Wang Canghai smiled wryly. "Cousin Beicang is too strong. He’s on a completely different level from us. Even though the guy defeated Cousin Jinglan, he remains unfazed."
"But he slapped the entire Wang Clan in the face..."
Wang Shu said angrily.
"Cousin Beicang said he wouldn’t crush an ant just because it bit him. An ant is just an ant. Even if it hops around for a bit, it can’t change anything..."
Wang Canghai sighed.
"This...!"
The expressions on everyone’s faces shifted.
So powerful!
Cousin Beicang’s realm was simply too high.
In his eyes, this Chen Xuan was nothing more than an ant...
’But the problem is, you have to come out and fight!’
’If you don’t, people will just think you’re scared!’
"Don’t worry. I’ll go get him to come out."
Suddenly, a calm and gentle voice sounded in their ears.
A middle-aged man in a purple robe, with a broad, square face, slowly approached from a distance, carrying an intangible aura. freewebnovёl.ƈom
"Vice-Patriarch..."
The crowd’s expressions changed again as they bowed their heads respectfully.
They hadn’t expected this matter to actually draw the Vice-Patriarch’s attention.
"I heard what just happened."
Wang Rufeng’s voice was calm as he looked at the crowd. "To be honest, that Chen Xuan has indeed gone too far. It’s true that Elder Qinglian brought him here, but he can’t just trample on the Wang Clan’s dignity like this. Defeating Jinglan is one thing, but why did he have to humiliate her? I will personally get Beicang to come out. Let Beicang reclaim the Wang Clan’s lost dignity with his absolute power."
"Excellent!"
"With the Vice-Patriarch getting involved, there’s no way this won’t work!"
"Yeah, now Cousin Beicang won’t be able to refuse!"
Everyone was overjoyed.
Wang Rufeng gave a slight nod and walked toward the mountain cave before them.
「A short while later.」
He once again saw Wang Beicang seated cross-legged in the cave. Wang Beicang’s presence was simple and unadorned, his aura completely restrained. A slight smile appeared on Wang Rufeng’s face. "Half a year has passed, and you’ve finally broken through another layer."
SWISH!
Wang Beicang’s eyes snapped open. He looked at the visitor, his brow slightly furrowed. "Vice-Patriarch."
"I am very pleased with your achievement."
Wang Rufeng smiled. "But you’ve heard about what just happened, haven’t you?"
"Are you talking about Jinglan getting beaten?"
Wang Beicang asked.
"Yes."
Wang Rufeng said with a sigh, "I know you have lofty ambitions and that you’re focused on following Elder Qinglian’s example to get on the Great Xia Human List. However, someone has come to bully us on our own doorstep. If we still do nothing, then no matter how noble your intentions are, in everyone else’s eyes, you’re just scared."
"Me, scared?"
A sharp glint flashed in Wang Beicang’s eyes.
"I know you’re not scared, but this is genuinely bad for your reputation. It will become an obstacle for you when you challenge the Human List in the future."
Wang Rufeng said.
"Hmph!"
Wang Beicang let out a cold snort, his eyes turning icy. "Why would I fear a mere ant?"
He rose to his full height from the large rock, a powerful fluctuation of Gang Qi slowly radiating from his body.
It surged like a tempest, shimmering with light.
"Three moves!"
Wang Beicang’s voice was indifferent, yet brimming with confidence.
"If I can’t defeat him in three moves!"
"Consider it my loss!"
His clothes and hair billowed as he strode out of the cave. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
A smile played on Wang Rufeng’s lips as he followed him.

"Take this pill, regulate your breathing, and then go fight my Wang Clan’s strongest genius."
Wang Qinglian’s tone was icy. She suddenly appeared before Chen Xuan, a dark, round pill in her delicate hand. It emanated a strange fragrance as she offered it to him.
"Strongest genius?"
Chen Xuan looked at Wang Qinglian with a suspicious expression.
’Aren’t *you* the Wang Clan’s strongest genius?’
’But I can’t even beat you yet!’
"Not me, another one!"
As if reading his mind, Wang Qinglian said immediately, "Wang Beicang. Fifth Layer of Gang Energy. He has mastered several Absolute Top Grade Martial Arts, and his combat talent is not to be underestimated. Take this pill. It will allow you to briefly erupt with nearly double your strength so you can absolutely crush him!"
Heh.
A smile touched Chen Xuan’s face as he looked at the pill. "What kind of pill is this?"
"A secret of the Wang Clan, the Overlord Dragon Pill. After you take it, you’ll be weakened for three days at most. You’ll recover quickly!"
Wang Qinglian brought the pill to his lips. "Eat!"
"I’m not eating it."
Chen Xuan shook his head.
"Why?"
Wang Qinglian’s delicate brow furrowed. "You must absolutely crush him! You can’t let him get the mistaken impression that you’re on his level!"
She knew Chen Xuan had killed Shangguan Ao.
But Wang Beicang also had plenty of experience fighting opponents above his level.
"Don’t worry. I can absolutely crush him even without it!"
Chen Xuan stood up directly and said coolly, "Let’s go. Where is he?"
"Don’t be careless. He’s quite difficult to deal with!"
Wang Qinglian said again.
"Stop nagging."
Chen Xuan said bluntly.
"..."
Wang Qinglian’s eyelid twitched violently. She took a deep breath, let out a cold snort, put the pill away, and said no more.
’Arrogant brat!’
The plaza was a sea of people.
Countless members of the Wang Clan had already gathered.
Every one of them had looks of anticipation, their gazes burning with intensity as they stared toward the front of the plaza.
An unknown number of discussions broke out.
"Cousin Beicang came out of seclusion himself. There’s no way this Chen Xuan is a match for him!"
"That little brat Chen Xuan... he’s not too scared to show up, is he?"
"Don’t worry. Even if he doesn’t come, we can corner him at his residence!"
"That’s right. He already made those arrogant boasts. If he doesn’t dare to show his face now, how can we let him off?"
"Look, he’s here! That Chen Xuan is here!"
Many people’s eyes lit up as they looked toward the front.
