Chapter 165: Chapter 163: What Do You Think You Are?

In the Training Land, strength was all that mattered.

For instance, right now, Jiang Jichen and his group of four had become targets for slaughter and plunder simply because their Realm Cultivation was too low, making them as weak as ants in the eyes of others.

Everyone watched this scene with cold indifference. No one would step in to help. They were used to such things; besides, many of them had done the same.

Just now, the nearest Loose Cultivator had simply beaten them to the punch.

In their view, Jiang Jichen’s group was too weak and probably didn’t have anything valuable, so it wasn’t worth fighting the Loose Cultivator for them.

Seeing the Loose Cultivator at the Innate Eighth Layer Initial Stage attack Yee Youmeng, Jiang Jichen, Luoo Long, and Wei Xiaohao didn’t even bat an eye.

They knew how terrifying Yee Youmeng was. Back when she was only in the Innate Fifth Realm, she had cleaved Guo Qilin of the Innate Seventh Realm Middle Stage in two.

Now that she was at the Innate Sixth Layer Perfection Realm, a Spirit Cultivator at the Innate Eighth Layer Initial Stage was no match for her at all!

"Kid, I’m going to rip out your heart!"

The Loose Cultivator at the Innate Eighth Layer Initial Stage spoke with chilling cruelty. The Light of Spiritual Patterns coiled around his five fingers, forming a Spirit Claw that lunged for Yee Youmeng’s chest.

Seeing his move, Yee Youmeng’s expression remained cold as she suddenly swung the large machete she had been dragging.

The light from the blade splashed out like flowing moonlight, tearing through the void with a stunning and unparalleled grace.

"SPLURT!"

Blood flew as the Loose Cultivator at the Innate Eighth Layer Initial Stage was cleaved in two by the large machete, a scene of utmost gore and brutality.

This was the first time Youmeng had attacked since reaching the Innate Sixth Layer Perfect Realm. It was a full-powered slash, and its might was... terrifying!

The crowd stared blankly at the scene, their bodies trembling. They collectively gasped, and the mocking laughter from moments ago died abruptly.

’Is this the kind of power someone at the Innate Sixth Layer Perfect Realm should have?’

’Cleaving someone in two with a single strike... this person is definitely on the verge of being a genius Transcender!’

Jiang Jichen’s expression was also a little strange. Of course, his thoughts differed from the crowd’s. He was thinking, ’Didn’t Yee Youmeng used to just go for beheadings? When did she upgrade to cleaving people in two? This is so much more bloody and vicious!’

’Guo Qilin ended up like this, and now so has this Loose Cultivator from the Innate Eighth Layer Initial Stage... what a miserable way to die.’

"If you’re not afraid to die, then come on!"

Jiang Jichen said lightly, his gaze sweeping across the crowd, filled with taunting amusement.

Then he added, "Wei Xiaohao, go get the Storage Bag!"

How could Wei Xiaohao dare to resist? Even though the Storage Bag was buried under a pile of intestines and looked utterly disgusting, he had no choice but to use his longsword to fish it out and collect the bag from the Innate Eighth Layer cultivator.

In the past, as the Young Master of the Wei Family, he wouldn’t have done such a thing even if it killed him!

But facing Jiang Jichen’s command, he didn’t dare defy it in the slightest.

The crowd watched this unfold, and someone soon recognized Wei Xiaohao, their face showing an expression of disbelief.

"Isn’t that Young Master Wei Xiaohao from the Wei Family, one of the Seven Great Families? What’s he doing here? And why is he taking orders from that boy?"

"Those people are clearly Loose Cultivators, just lowlifes, but Wei Xiaohao is acting like their subordinate. Has he been threatened?"

"He must have been threatened! That’s the only reason Young Master Wei would be forced to act this way!"

As the crowd murmured amongst themselves, some, provoked by Jiang Jichen’s arrogant words, stepped forward and stared coldly at his group.

The first to make a move were the companions of the man who was killed—two Independent Cultivators who were Spirit Cultivators at the Innate Eighth Layer Perfect Realm. "You killed our companion," one of them said. "You’re dead!"

"He was allowed to try and kill us, but we weren’t allowed to fight back and kill him? What kind of logic is that?"

Jiang Jichen took a step forward, his aura flaring, and demanded with a cold smirk.

"My companion was clearly telling your companion to be quiet! Otherwise, you’d attract the Poisonous Beetles and get us all killed! He was doing it for everyone’s sake!"

one of the Independent Cultivators at the Innate Eighth Layer Perfect Realm claimed.

Jiang Jichen sneered dismissively. "Do you take me for an idiot who knows nothing? There’s a Restriction at the valley entrance that blocks all sound. Even if thunder roared in here, it wouldn’t be heard inside. If you want to rob us, just rob us. Why bother with excuses? Since you’re not robbing us, I guess I’ll just have to rob you instead!"

As he spoke, Jiang Jichen attacked without any warning, closing the distance and unleashing two devastating punches!

"SPLAT! SPLAT!"

The two Independent Cultivators at the Innate Eighth Layer Perfect Realm didn’t even have time to react before they were blown apart. Jiang Jichen casually snatched their two Storage Bags.

It all happened too fast!

No one could have imagined that Jiang Jichen would actually dare to attack first, and with such overwhelming dominance.

For a moment, most of the onlookers were stunned into silence.

While two Independent Cultivators at the Innate Eighth Layer Perfect Realm weren’t considered incredibly powerful here, to be blown apart by a single punch without even a chance to resist was another matter entirely.

The crowd suddenly felt that this young man at the Innate Sixth Layer Perfect Realm had become profound and unfathomable.

And the small youth dragging the large machete was not as weak as they had imagined, either!

However, it wasn’t long before a few Noble Family Descendants from the Quicksand Country came over. One of them shot a cold glance at Jiang Jichen before speaking to Wei Xiaohao. "Young Master Wei, are they holding you hostage? If so, we will kill them and rescue you!"

The speaker was a young Grandmaster, a disciple of the Zhongg Family—a first-class Noble Family in the Quicksand Country. The Zhongg Family was on good terms with the Wei Family, so naturally, he knew Wei Xiaohao.

But Jiang Jichen cut in coldly, "You shouldn’t make baseless accusations. For words like that, I could have you up for slander!"

"Hmph, we’re talking to Young Master Wei. It’s not your place to speak. Say another word, and we’ll cut out your tongue!"

another Zhongg Family disciple threatened sinisterly.

"Is that so? Well then, why don’t you ask Young Master Wei whether or not I have the right to speak!" Jiang Jichen’s voice had also turned grim.

Hearing Jiang Jichen’s tone, Wei Xiaohao’s heart skipped a beat!

He recalled everything that had happened recently, how he had witnessed Jiang Jichen’s invincibility and ferocity. The man could blow apart even a Grandmaster with a single punch, and his cultivation had improved since then. His current strength was unfathomable.

’He’s a Supreme Transcender who practices Spirit-Body Dual Cultivation! Compared to him, what are these two Zhongg Family Grandmasters? Jack shit! If they pissed him off, they’d just be another two corpses blown to bits, wouldn’t they?’

Wei Xiaohao was certain that if Jiang Jichen wanted to kill him, not even the Zhongg Family’s leader at the Foundation Establishment Realm could protect him. He had seen Jiang Jichen’s speed; it was truly demonic and unpredictable.

Therefore, he was terrified. He felt a deep-seated fear of Jiang Jichen.

"How dare you talk to my boss like that? Who the hell do you think you are? What gives you the right to speak to my boss? Are you trying to die? Go get Zhongg Li!"

"Otherwise, you’re all going to die!"

Wei Xiaohao suddenly rushed forward, pointing and cursing at the two Grandmaster disciples from the Zhongg Family. His arrogant and domineering personality was on full display.

Perhaps this was his true nature. He had been so miserably suppressed these past few days that he naturally had to vent it all out now that he had the chance.
