Chapter 390: Chapter 387: Preparations Before the Battle_1
Translator: 549690339
Yang Chen had already guessed that Han Lingling’s request was not as simple as five million Spirit Stones. However, he didn’t expect that Han Lingling’s heart would be so cruel. She demanded that he not only kowtow a hundred times but also cut off both his arms as an apology.
For a martial artist, losing both arms would be equivalent to losing everything, plunging their life into darkness.
And what about Han Lingling? She deliberately spared his life but demanded his arms instead, wasn’t that even more cruel and vicious?
Thinking of this, Yang Chen narrowed his eyes.
Others might be afraid, but he was not.
On the contrary, Han Lingling’s conditions had completely enraged him, making him realize that there was no need to show mercy to a woman like her.
He couldn’t imagine what kind of spoiled upbringing could produce such a woman like Han Lingling, but it had nothing to do with him. If a woman like her wasn’t taught a lesson, countless innocent people might suffer as a result of her arrogance and cruelty.
He had experienced her endless nagging and aggression before.
In an instant, Yang Chen looked coldly at Han Lingling and Shao Ming.
Han Lingling shouted, “What’s the matter, Yang Chen? Are you scared?”
Yang Chen smirked, “There’s nothing to be afraid of. Just remember to prepare the Spirit Stones. In ten days, at Beishan Main City. By then, I’ll be ready to face off against your chosen Shao Ming! I just hope Miss Han has prepared enough Spirit Stones, and doesn’t try to back out later. By then, it won’t just be your reputation that’s lost.”
Having said that, Yang Chen left without lingering.
After Yang Chen left, the discussion grew more intense, as no one could remain indifferent to the matter.
Han Lingling looked at Shao Ming and asked, “Shao Ming, are you confident?”
Shao Ming cracked his neck and said confidently, “This kid’s just a Ling Wu Realm Peak martial artist, dealing with him should be a piece of cake.”
At first, he was intimidated by Yang Chen’s performance in the thirteenth floor of the Trial Tower, and his morale was not so high, but as time went on and he learned more about Yang Chen, he realized that Yang Chen’s cultivation was only at the Ling Wu Realm Peak.
This made him happy and his confidence soared.
Although there seemed to be only a small difference between the Ling Wu Realm Peak and the Half-step Yuan Martial Realm, there was actually a huge gap. He could now utilize the power of the Yuan Martial Realm, while Yang Chen could only use the power of the Ling Wu Realm.
The difference was like heaven and earth.
And it was precisely this difference that he would make Yang Chen realize how desperate it would be to face him!
Only Steward Xu stood aside, watching Han Lingling and Shao Ming’s actions, and sighed softly, knowing that these two would eventually suffer losses.
Although he also instinctively felt that there was a gap between Yang Chen’s Ling Wu Realm Peak cultivation and Shao Ming’s, hadn’t Yang Chen experienced enough miracles on his own?
Oh well, what did it have to do with him? He had no particular fondness for Han Lingling, and if not for her father’s sake, why would he help? As for the current situation, it’s already a done deal. He naturally wouldn’t step forward to dissuade them, so he turned around, pretended not to know, and left it alone.
“This matter of Yang Chen facing Shao Ming is a big deal!”
“Yeah, I’ve got to hurry up and tell the others.”
In an instant, the news spread from one to ten and then to a hundred, and within less than a day, it had spread throughout Beishan Main City.
Beishan Main City gathered various forces, big and small, such as the Canghai Sect, Yuanshan Sect, and the Six Sects, all of which had branches stationed in Beishan Main City. As a result, when the news spread, all these sects got wind of it.
A rookie like Yang Chen actually wanted to have a life-and-death bet with Shao Ming, an old genius of the Beishan Main City?
This was shocking news that spread like wildfire.
Elder Hu and Elder Yun also learned about this matter, exchanged glances, and immediately tried to find Yang Chen to inquire about it. However, they didn’t know where Steward Xu had arranged for Yang Chen to stay, so they could only wait in Beishan Main City for ten days until Yang Chen’s match with Han Lingling and Shao Ming.
They had no choice, as they had been watching outside the Trial Tower when Yang Chen entered it.
However, when Yang Chen left with Steward Xu, he split them up.
Meanwhile, Yang Chen returned to the area where Huang Taiji had lived before.
This place was sparsely populated and undisturbed, which suited Yang Chen perfectly. This was why he didn’t want Elder Hu and Elder Yun to be with him.
If someone in Beishan Main City truly dared to harm him, there was no way Elder Hu and Elder Yun could protect him. So, there was no point in having the two of them follow him around.
Instead, it would be better for him to find a quiet place on his own.
His return to this place wasn’t just for leisure; he was also contemplating his upcoming encounter with Shao Ming.
Although he seemed to have agreed readily and appeared indifferent to the matter, the reality was different.
Yang Chen rubbed his eyebrows and said, “This Shao Ming is not an easy opponent to deal with. From what I’ve heard from those geniuses of Beishan Main City, his cultivation already reached the Half-step Yuan Martial Realm. He even passed the eleventh floor of the Trial Tower. I’m afraid he can even hold his own against an ordinary Yuan Martial Realm opponent.”
“Then why did you agree to their challenge, Master?” Rainbow asked in confusion.
With the Fishpeople Tribe’s way of thinking, they would naturally not care about face.
If they could win, they fought, and if they couldn’t, there was no need to fight.
Hearing Rainbow’s words, Yang Chen couldn’t help but laugh bitterly, “Of course I had to agree. If I didn’t, Han Lingling would never let it go. Besides, although Shao Ming is really strong, he’s not completely unbeatable for me. It’ll just be more troublesome to handle.”
Where was the trouble?
After all, this wasn’t like breaking through the Trial Tower, where he could use his abilities without restraint.
For example, his strongest trump card, Starfire, couldn’t be used against Shao Ming.
If he could use Starfire, he wouldn’t be afraid of Shao Ming at all. Now, the problem was that he couldn’t use Starfire.
Otherwise, wouldn’t Han Lingling dare to bet a whopping five million Spirit Stones on the fact that he had no chance of winning? At his current Ling Wu Realm Peak, he was ultimately still a level below the Half-step Yuan Martial Realm.
“It seems I’ll have to take advantage of these ten days and refine some more Spirit Talismans. The Volcano Spirit Talisman is indispensable and can be used as a trump card.”
Thinking of this, Yang Chen murmured, “Next, I’ll have to choose some techniques from the Spirit Talisman Crafting Technique.”
