World of Immortals

Part 1

The Sword Demon who had suffered hardship since childhood had only ever lived for the swords. However, because the Southern Wasteland"s experts were being insulted, he stepped forward bravely and faced outstanding heroes with his b.a.s.t.a.r.d sword. He triumphed over the Amethyst Prison and Hades" Wheel, defeated the key figures from several supreme clans, and had dominated every experts in the surroundings.

And now, one of the strongest four in Yindu had returned. He declared he would defeat Dugu Jianmo within eighty rounds, seemingly looking down on the barbarians of the Southern Wasteland.

Chulain"s purple gown flapped along with the wind as he surged up with violent energy. The rich kids around him were forced to fall back. His eyes were emitting two seemingly materialized purple rays of about two meters long.

Many of the weaker pract.i.tioners nearby let out a miserable shriek as they hastily shut their eyes. During that instant just now, whether it was due to the purple rays, or because of Chulain"s sky-high killing intent, plenty of people in the surroundings were trembling as if they had been struck by a lightning.

One could easily imagine just how powerful this Chulain was. The reputation of the Heroic Four had already shaken the imperial capital for numerous years, it was absolutely no undeserved!

Xiao Chen was as still as a pine and seemed to be at peace despite the fact that the murderous aura had already surged towards him like a violent wave. The dense murderous aura had almost drowned him, yet he stood there like an unmovable boulder.

At this time, he was the focus of everyone"s attention.

It was very rare for the third princess to remove her veil, but she lifted her veil and revealed half of her charming face. Her fixed one of her beautiful eye on the esteemed expert recommended by Dugu Jianmo. The other young ladies also looked at this mysterious expert with glittering eyes.

Bosch and Chen Hanggin gazed at Xiao Chen without batting an eye. Dugu Jianmo himself had dominated everyone at the Sword Verse Tea Party with his b.a.s.t.a.r.d sword, and yet he p.r.o.nounced this person to be stronger than him. Just what kind of person was he?

Their eyes were bright, as if they wanted bore through Xiao Chen"s body with their gaze and examine him thoroughly.

The surrounding was very quiet. Only the feeble sound of breathing could be heard. Everyone"s gaze was completely focused on that sole figure.

At a distant location, Yin Feng"s eyes lit up as he said, "It"s him, he"s finally here."

They once had a battle at the Lunar Pavilion, Yin Feng was fully aware of this mysterious expert"s power. Perhaps he might even stand toe-to-toe with Chulain. As for the outcome, he did not dare imagine it. After all, Yindu"s Heroic Four had left a lasting impression in their mind.

Yan Qingcheng revealed a hint of doubt in her beautiful eyes, how come it"s him again? This person was an expert from the South? How come she"ve never heard of him? Could he be the mysterious Zhao Chongyang?

Xiao Chen had changed his appearance and restrained his aura. He was already not at all the same compared to his former self, she couldn"t recognize him at all.

Lazio and Windfeathers also had doubts in their heart. They knew that this person was definitely not Zhao Chongyang, because they once had an encounter with him.

They were unable to guess who it was. n.o.body from the Southern Wasteland knew of this youth"s ident.i.ty.

"You are the strongest expert from the Southern Wasteland?!" Chulain raised his sword-like brow. His entire person released an indescribable aura, it was a fitting aura for someone who had been through a real battlefield. It caused everyone heart"s to race faster.

His heroic figure even caused some of the young ladies to cast him a sidelong glance. After all, he was Yindu"s Heroic Four and was once admired by many women.

"I am not." Xiao Chen answered calmly. While facing the gazes of experts from all direction, he seemed relaxed and easygoing. He stood there calmly like an evergreen pine tree.

"You are not?!" Chulain raised his sword-like brows.

Countless people raised an uproar, could it be that he recognized the wrong person, or was Dugu Jianmo just making fun of them? Confusion started to spread.

Even the third princess revealed a doubtful expression as more people made a racket. Many people started to point their gaze towards Dugu Jianmo.

"I am a travelling artist." Just at this time, Xiao Chen spoke up. With this one sentence, he became the focal point of everyone again.

Dugu Jianmo followed up, "I did not say he is the strongest one in the Southern Wasteland. I only said that he is stronger than me. He had once fought with the strongest expert of the Southern Wasteland for one night. The outcome was a draw."

The lakeside was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with noises of everyone discussing spiritedly. All the while looking at Xiao Chen with shocked expression. Now that they thought about it, Dugu Jianmo indeed did not say this person was the strongest in the Southern Wasteland, he only said that this person was stronger than him. They"ve all been led to a false conclusion.

To fight to a draw with the Southern Wasteland"s number one, and to draw this much respect from Dugu Jianmo, Xiao Chen had become the focal point of everyone here.

Regarding these, Xiao Chen did not continue to deny it. He only looked at Dugu Jianmo quietly.

"Haha… That means defeating him is equal to defeating the strongest one in Southern Wasteland?" Chulain laughed out loud, he was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with confidence.

Thousands of people were getting roused up. They were looking forward to the battle between one of Yindu"s Heroic Four and the travelling artist who tied with Southern Wasteland"s number one. After all, this was bound to be a confrontation between the top!

"Who is Southern Wasteland"s strongest?" Seemingly still possessing a slight doubt, Chulain turned around to face Dugu Jianmo and asked him this question.

"He is no longer in this world." Dugu Jianmo hadn"t spoke as much as today compared to the past year. Especially when the Southern Wasteland"s strongest was mentioned, Dugu Jianmo no longer kept his mouth shut.

"Who is it?" Chulain seemed to be very interested.

Everyone was hooked by what Dugu Jianmo about to say. Everyone at the lakeside wanted to know who that person was. After all, Dugu Jianmo himself had admitted he was no match for this so-called number one expert.

Even Yan Qingcheng, Lazio, and Windfeathers were paying close attention. They wanted to know the definite answer.

"Xiao Chen."

With only these two words, Dugu Jianmo finished with what he had to say and left with large strides.

"Xiao Chen…" Everyone was reciting this name. A moment later, many of them gasped in shock, especially the rich kids of Yindu. They were well-informed and naturally knew of the event that took place in Southern Wasteland before.

Even Yin Feng had mentioned his name once at the Lunar Pavilion. Only Xiao Chen from the Southern Wasteland could stand a sliver of chance against the strongest of Yindu.

Bosch and Chen Hangging even had a hint of flash while astonished. Without any exception, all the supreme clans knew of the b.l.o.o.d.y event that took place at Celestial City.

The Shang Dynasty"s third princess seemed to be recalling an event from the past. Then she heaved a sigh in pity and whispered to herself, "So it is him…"

The beauties surrounding the princess were not stupid either. One of them asked with a smile, "The princess had seen that person before?" ⌈1⌋

The third princess shook her head with a smile, no longer saying a word.

After hearing this, Yan Qingcheng was stunned momentarily as she memories from her past resurfaced. That guy from three years ago… she felt a little complicated, but calmed down soon after.

Lazio and Windfeathers even had a hint of flash. Especially Windfeathers, since he had suffered a crushing defeat under Xiao Chen"s hands before. However, now that he thought about it calmly, he couldn"t help but admit it. That year, he did not lose the fight unjustly.

"Haha…" Chulain faced the sky and laughed out loud, "And here I thought who is it, so it"s that guy. I"ve once heard of him. If that guy is truly the strongest, then I must say, this is all the Southern barbarian could amount to!"

"How arrogant!"

"This guy is much too arrogant!"

There were many people who hailed from the West, the North, and the South at this Sword Verse Tea Party. All of them were extremely angry and disgusted with his display of arrogance.

Chulain looked at the surrounding people with cold gaze, then he said, "I heard that he grasped some sort of secret arte. By burning his own life force, he managed to kill some demiG.o.ds. What about it? That"s not his own power. If he don"t use this kind of self-harming technique, what would he amount to? Would he dare to face me in that condition? I will finish him off in ninety rounds!"

Chulain"s personality was like this. He might have a foul mouth, but he was not a reckless person. He always looked down on his opponent and believed that he was the strongest, but once they"re truly engaged in a battle, he would never get careless.

"Hmph!"

He cast a chilly glance at everyone and said while pointing at Xiao Chen, "You guys don"t believe it? Then look at how I defeat him."

Now, Dugu Jianmo had arrived in front of Xiao Chen with his b.a.s.t.a.r.d sword tightly secured on his back. Then he whispered in Xiao Chen"s ear, "Now I am certain… it"s you."

Three days ago, when Dugu Jianmo saw Xiao Chen at the Lunar Pavilion, he already had a slight suspicion. Today, he arrived early at the Moon Garden and waited until Xiao Chen showed up.

People once said those who truly understood you was your not friend, but your enemy instead. Perhaps it really had some basis behind it. Dugu Jianmo and Xiao Chen couldn"t really be considered friends. In Dugu Jianmo"s heart, Xiao Chen was only a powerful opponent.

He couldn"t have guessed his ident.i.ty from his aura nor his appearance, Dugu Jianmo only recognized him due to some kind of intuition.

Xiao Chen was speechless.

Dugu Jianmo left and become one of the many spectators.

Chulain walked forward with large strides. He stood face-to-face with Xiao Chen. Then he swept his gaze over the Yindu"s rich kids and said, "I will recover the disgrace you guys brought to Yindu today by beheading him."

The surrounding immediately quietened down, Madman Chu versus the Traveling Artist, this was a battle worth looking forward to.

"Are you prepared?" Chulain gazed at Xiao Chen with overbearing att.i.tude.
