Chapter 1757 - 1754: The Visitors Come with Hostile Intent
After returning to Boundary Mountain, these cultivators planned to each return to their own families and find their own mothers.
Snow Princess, Li Mengjiao, Yans Ziyi and their group also planned to return to Qianxue Hall to report back.
Before leaving, Snow Princess blinked her spirited eyes, looked at Li Chen, and asked, "Where do you plan to go next?"
For a moment, Li Chen didn’t know how to answer Snow Princess’s question.
He was unfamiliar with this place, and short-term plans were unclear.
Li Chen thought for a moment and said, "I’m not familiar with this place, I’ll wander around and take a look first!"
Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, Snow Princess suddenly became excited like a child, gleefully saying, "I know this place well, I can act as your guide!"
Li Chen was taken aback by her words; in his impression, Snow Princess was a typical ice queen, how could she suddenly be so childlike.
Not only was Li Chen surprised, but the other cultivators were also shocked as if they had seen a ghost.
Especially Li Mengjiao, Yans Ziyi and others, they felt it was incredible.
Seeing Li Chen hesitating to answer, Snow Princess spoke again with an uncertain tone, tentatively asking, "You’re not looking down on me, are you?"
Li Chen was embarrassed: "..."
Just as he intended to reply, his expression suddenly became extremely stern.
His eyes, as deep and bright as stars, narrowed suddenly, forming a line, shooting towards the sky.
Someone was coming!
And there were at least two Tribulation Crossing Great Abilities!
It seemed that the visitors were not friendly!
"Boom!"
The moment this thought appeared in Li Chen’s mind, a thunderous sound echoed from the void.
Then, two groups of people descended one after another.
Seeing the newcomers, everyone present couldn’t help but feel shocked.
"Liuyun Sect Sect Master Wuo Yunzi!"
"Zhao Family Great Elder Zhao Badao!"
Among them, Wuo Yunzi’s cultivation had already reached the Tribulation Crossing Second Transition realm.
Zhao Badao was slightly inferior, but he was also at the peak of the Tribulation Crossing First Transition realm, comparable to Star Cloud Ancestor.
Seeing these two top-level powers appear, instantly all the cultivators lowered their heads and saluted.
"Greetings to the two immortals!"
However, neither Wuo Yunzi nor Zhao Badao paid any attention to these Heavenly Prides.
Only the sharp, sword-like eyes of the two instantly locked onto Li Chen.
Zhao Badao was the first to ask, "Are you the one who killed our Zhao Family’s Heavenly Prides Wuyou and Wuxin?"
Li Chen nodded and replied, "Yes, Zhao Wuyou and Zhao Wuxin were both killed by me. Oh, and there was a fool named Zhao Meng, who was presumably also from your Zhao Family, he too met his end at my hands!"
The Zhao Family was the top family in the Heavenly Domain.
As a figure second only to the Family Head in the Zhao Family, Zhao Badao’s actions were always tyrannical and unruly.
Now seeing a young junior dare to speak to himself with such disdainful tone, Zhao Badao was instantly furious.
"You hateful guy, you killed our Zhao Family’s Heavenly Prides, I will grind your bones to ash and tear you to pieces!"
Upon hearing Zhao Badao’s bare threat, not only was Li Chen unafraid, but he even raised a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Many people want to grind my bones to ash, you’re not the first in line!"
After speaking, Li Chen ignored Zhao Badao and turned his gaze to Wuo Yunzi.
"Presumably, you’re also here to condemn me, right?"
Wuo Yunzi found it amazing that Li Chen could remain so calm at this moment.
Zhuge Qingyun was his most prized disciple.
But compared to the young man in front of him, Zhuge Qingyun seemed lacking.
Thinking thus, Wuo Yunzi felt a burgeoning admiration.
Now, his hopeful disciple Zhuge Qingyun was dead, and Liuyun Sect had nobody to succeed.
If he could recruit Li Chen, then not only would Liuyun Sect avoid decline, but might also prosper.
Perhaps, they might even surpass Qianxue Hall and Fantian Temple, becoming the dominator of the Heavenly Domain.
With these thoughts, Wuo Yunzi deliberately slowed his tone, saying, "My disciple Zhuge Qingyun also died by your hand, right?"
Without hesitation, Li Chen directly admitted to this.
"Indeed, I killed him!"
Wuo Yunzi’s gaze suddenly became like an unsheathed sword, firmly locking onto Li Chen, coldly asking, "Do you know the consequences of killing my disciple?"
Li Chen smiled calmly and pointed at the furious Zhao Badao, asking, "Is it like what he just said, grinding me to ashes and tearing me apart?"
Seeing Li Chen speaking so casually and looking very composed, Wuo Yunzi couldn’t help but secretly marvel.
"Aren’t you afraid?"
Li Chen casually replied, "Afraid of what?"
Wuo Yunzi’s eyes were cold and he said slowly, "Of being ground to ashes!"
Li Chen looked at Wuo Yunzi and sneered coldly.
"Then let’s make a bet!"
Wuo Yunzi was taken aback, asking, "Bet on what?"
Li Chen pointed at Wuo Yunzi, then at himself, saying, "Bet on whether you can grind me to ashes!"
Before Wuo Yunzi could respond, Zhao Badao suddenly jumped in, loudly saying, "It’s like a toad yawning, what a big mouth, I’ll bet with you!"
Regarding Zhao Badao’s sudden interruption, Wuo Yunzi was quite displeased.
However, he didn’t stop him.
Before arriving here, he had received reports.
It was said that their Liuyun Sect’s Heavenly Pride Zhuge Qingyun, along with Loose Cultivator Dugu Bai, Zhao Family’s two Heavenly Prides, Zhao Wuyou and Zhao Wuxin, and the Great Power Star Cloud Ancestor who ascended from the Lower Realm had all perished at the hands of Li Chen, the demon.
Since Zhao Badao wanted to take the initiative, let him test Li Chen’s true strength, see if he was really as mysterious as the report suggested.
With this in mind, Wuo Yunzi cupped his hand to Zhao Badao, saying, "Since Elder Zhao wishes to act, this demon Li Chen is yours to deal with!"
Zhao Badao originally thought Wuo Yunzi would compete with him.
In comparison to Wuo Yunzi, his strength was slightly inferior.
If he insisted on competing, Zhao Badao wouldn’t know how to respond.
But unexpectedly, Wuo Yunzi was so magnanimous, directly leaving this demon Li Chen to him.
Zhao Badao, like Zhao Meng, while strong, was simple-minded and muscular.
Thus, he didn’t realize he was being used by Wuo Yunzi.
He even cupped his hand in thanks.
Snow Princess, Yans Ziyi and others were very worried seeing Zhao Badao about to attack Li Chen.
Snow Princess tugged on Li Mengjiao’s sleeve, signaling her to step out and speak on Qianxue Hall’s behalf.
Li Mengjiao shook her head, comforting her, "Snow Princess, don’t worry, Li Chen is composed and calm, undoubtedly confident. We just need to wait and see!"
