Ling Tian Sword God-Chapter 796 - 794: Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road_1

Upon hearing Ling Chen agree to join the Green Mountain Association, a smile spread across the faces of Ye Ming and the others. "There are no prerequisites. With your talents, Brother Ling Chen, just mention it to our Sect Leader."

"That's right, Brother Ling Chen. You are now a member of our Green Mountain Association."

Yuwen Jie and Dong Yaotian also laughed heartily. Getting a genius of Ling Chen's caliber to join them was undoubtedly a great achievement.

"I will fully report this to the Sect Leader. Once the Membership Token is issued, you will be a formal member of our Green Mountain Association," said Ye Ming.

"From now on, we are all friends. There's no need for formalities. You three can just call me Ling Chen." Ling Chen cupped his hands towards the three men and said with a smile.

"Good." Ye Ming and the others' eyes lit up. They hadn't expected Ling Chen, despite his monstrous talents, to be such an easy-going person. Their fondness for him increased tremendously.

Hearing this, the group left the True Dragon Pavilion and headed down the mountain.

On a slope near the True Dragon Pavilion, three people had appeared. The one in the middle wore an eyepatch, blind in one eye, but his other eye was exceptionally sharp, glinting with a cold light. The other two, resembling each other by seventy to eighty percent, were undoubtedly twin brothers. Both were burly and menacing, their Cultivation auras indicating they were above the Sixth Layer of Sky Apex.

"Tang Ze, I heard your Tang Sect suffered a great loss not long ago at the hands of some nameless punk called Ling Chen. You expended great effort to hunt him down but came up empty-handed. Even Tang Yutong's Sand Shooting Shadow was defeated by him. Is that true?" The elder of the twin brothers, named Li Qing, was quite close to the one-eyed young man and spoke candidly.

The one-eyed young man named Tang Ze responded coldly, "HMPH. Your sources are quite reliable. It is indeed true. Unfortunately, I didn't run into him. Otherwise, I would have beaten him until he knelt and begged for mercy."

Tang Ze had been wandering for many years before he met these twin brothers and joined their genius faction, the Prince Party. He was ranked third among the top ten Experts of the Tang Sect, and Tang Yutong was his sister. Hearing that Tang Yutong had been defeated infuriated him, and he had vowed to defeat Ling Chen to wash away the shame. Moreover, the fact that the great Tang Sect couldn't handle a nameless punk was an utter disgrace.

As for how the twin brothers knew of this, he was unsure. The three of them had arranged to meet here and had only just encountered each other.

"Alright, Brother Tang Ze, a gentleman's revenge is ten years in the making. This boy offended the Tang Sect; he won't be causing trouble for long. I'll take my brother to test his aptitude now."

Saying that, Li Qing stepped forward, leading his twin brother towards the True Dragon Pavilion on the mountain.

On the stairs, Tang Ze's group and Ling Chen's group met head-on.

"Well, well, who do we have here? If it isn't Ye Ming, Yuwen Jie, and Dong Yaotian from the Green Mountain Association." Li Qing recognized the three of them and chuckled.

Ye Ming frowned. "What a coincidence, meeting the renowned Tang Sect genius here."

Tang Ze's Prince Party was affiliated with the Heavenly Sword Sect; essentially, they were lackeys. The Heavenly Sword Sect disdained the tasks undertaken by the Prince Party. The latter group acted with an even more overbearing and aggressive style and was always at odds with the Green Mountain Association.

"We should catch up sometime. We really appreciated your 'help' last time." Tang Ze grinned, his smile full of insinuation.

"HMPH!" Yuwen Jie's and Dong Yaotian's expressions turned cold. Their opponent was thanking them for what was, to them, a disgrace. The last time, a group of talents from their Green Mountain Association had found ancient ruins containing many treasures. Unexpectedly, Tang Ze and other members of the Prince Party had tracked them and stolen most of their findings. Though they were resentful, they were still very wary of Tang Ze's strength. His Hidden Weapon, Sky Rain of Flowers, was a famously powerful Hidden Weapon of the Tang Sect and was difficult to counter.

"Forget it. We're in a good mood today and won't stoop to his level. Brother Ling Chen, let's go." Ye Ming merely shot Tang Ze a cold glance, then turned to Ling Chen and began to lead their group of five away from the True Dragon Pavilion.

"What? You're Ling Chen? Stay right there!"

Just as Ling Chen's group was preparing to descend the mountain, a loud shout suddenly rang out, startling everyone in the vicinity. The one who shouted was none other than Tang Ze.

"What is it?" Ling Chen turned his head to look at them.

"What is it? Kid, don't think you can completely escape the grasp of Our Tangmen just by leaving Yi Zhou! Your good days are over!" Tang Ze stared coldly at Ling Chen.

"So, it's people from the Tang Sect." Ling Chen immediately understood. He frowned slightly. The Tang Sect really has its people everywhere; I didn't expect to run into them here.

"Ling Chen! Come back to the Tang Sect with me." Tang Ze stared intently at Ling Chen. He suddenly released his aura. Instantly, the space around him seemed to transform into a vast ocean. Its overwhelming pressure forced the surrounding young geniuses, who were watching the spectacle, to retreat in horror. Ye Ming, at the forefront, bore the brunt of it; his face paled, and he stumbled back several steps.

"Tang Ze! Don't go too far! Ling Chen is now a member of our Green Mountain Association. If you want to seize him, you'll have to get through us first!" Ye Ming took a deep breath and said in a low, serious voice.

"What? You three think you're a match for me? You dare to challenge me now?" Tang Ze showed them no respect whatsoever.

"You!" The faces of Ye Ming and the other two turned ugly. They were indeed no match for Tang Ze.

"Kid, come back to the Tang Sect with me and confess your crimes!" Tang Ze suddenly yelled at Ling Chen. His shout was imbued with an indomitable aura. It was like an invisible Hidden Weapon shooting through the air towards Ling Chen. If struck by this intangible attack, even an Expert of the same level would be left reeling and dispirited.

"HMPH." Ling Chen stepped forward. His razor-sharp Sword Momentum collided with the invisible great blade. The air CRACKLED, and stone chips flew.

"EH! He blocked it?" Tang Ze looked surprised.

His aura isn't actually inferior to Tang Ze's! Ye Ming and the others were shocked. They hadn't expected Ling Chen to not only possess monstrous aptitude but also such strength.

"Not bad." Tang Ze sneered, preparing to make his move.

"Why trouble yourself, Brother Tang Ze? Allow me to capture this kid and present him to you." Just as Tang Ze was preparing to act, Li Qing, who was beside him, suddenly spoke up with a sinister smile and stepped forward.

In Li Qing's view, although Ling Chen's aura was impressive, it was merely an empty display. No matter how capable he was, he was only at the Sky Apex Realm Second Layer; he could never be his opponent.

"Li Qing, I will be your opponent!" Ye Ming stepped forward. Ling Chen was only at the Sky Apex Realm Second Layer, while Li Qing had reached the Sixth Layer of Sky Apex. The gap between them was too vast. Ling Chen would undoubtedly be able to defeat Li Qing eventually, but not now.
