Chapter 461: 458: A New Round of Challengers_1

Therefore, it’s normal for new faces to appear in the second layer.

Although he wasn’t certain of the identities of these two individuals, he pretty much guessed what had happened just by seeing them attacking Jiang Caiying. Most likely, the two of them broke through the fifth level not long ago and entered this second layer.

Upon seeing Jiang Caiying alone, they naturally harbored ill intentions and wanted to snatch the treasures she had already chosen. After all, an extra chance to choose from the Emperor’s treasure meant gaining more items, and no one would ignore that.

Not to mention, the martial arts cultivation of the Black Dragon Sect’s top genius Yu Feilong is on par with Jiang Caiying, and the other person who attacked together with him, although Yang Chen doesn’t know who he is, has also reached the high level of the Yuanwu Realm Fifth Layer.

With such strength, it would be difficult for Jiang Caiying to withstand the two-on-one attack.

There was nothing to be done about it, as the Tiandu Emperor turned a blind eye to this situation. It was a loophole in the rules, and the Tiandu Emperor never prohibited these geniuses from slaying each other. On the contrary, the Tiandu Emperor was happy to push these geniuses to their limits through death.

Jiang Caiying was now at a disadvantage, and seeing this, Yang Chen had to act immediately without any hesitation.

“Black Mountain Dark Cloud Palm!” Yang Chen suddenly slapped out.

Immediately afterward, a shadow of a virtual palm gradually grew larger and larger. Soon after, it bombarded out forcefully.

“Huh?”

Yu Feilong and his companion Zhang Xing, who had such high martial arts cultivation, naturally noticed Yang Chen’s sudden appearance. However, even though Yang Chen was a demon, his strength was only at the Half-step Yuan Martial Realm, far below them, and they didn’t think he could pose any significant threat.

However, when they saw Yang Chen using the Black Mountain Dark Cloud Palm, their thoughts began to waver and change.

It was evident that Yang Chen was not someone to be trifled with.

At the very least, the Black Mountain Dark Cloud Palm wasn’t a fatal threat to them, but it was enough to threaten them.

“Zhang Xing, you deal with this palm force, I’m suppressing Jiang Caiying now and can’t afford to be interrupted. Stall this surnamed Yang for me for a while, and I’ll be able to take her down,” Yu Feilong ordered in a low voice.

The two of them had severely injured Jiang Caiying when they attacked just now. Now even if one of them retreated and he attacked alone, it would still be enough to defeat Jiang Caiying.

However, while the two of them were thinking this way, Yang Chen definitely wouldn’t let them achieve their goals.

If Jiang Caiying was defeated, he would be in trouble next.

With his current strength, facing a master of the Yuanwu Realm Fifth or Sixth Layer, self-defense wouldn’t be a problem. After all, he was different from dealing with demonic beasts; he could use his methods without restraint. However, once he had to deal with two people, it would become difficult for him. Even if he used all his means, he might not necessarily win.

Protecting Jiang Caiying was imperative.

The next moment, he roared out with his powerful voice, directly launching his killer move Mountain God Roar.

With the Mountain God Roar unleashed, the sound echoed throughout the entire space, its power amplified by the confined area. Yu Feilong and Zhang Xing’s faces changed slightly, evidently suffering some injury, making them look even more miserable when dealing with the Black Mountain Dark Cloud Palm.

Yang Chen knew very well that it was unlikely to defeat the two with the Black Mountain Dark Cloud Palm.

However, he didn’t expect to solve these two people so swiftly. Instead, he leapt over to Jiang Caiying, standing together with her first.

Compared to her heyday, Jiang Caiying’s face was extremely pale at this moment, and she had obviously suffered no small injury during the previous fight.

“Is Miss Jiang alright?” Yang Chen asked.

Jiang Caiying took a deep breath, and her breath revealed her unstable Qi. Even without words, Yang Chen knew that her situation was bad.

Yang Chen laughed in his heart and waved his hand to grab two elixirs. He then quickly put them into Jiang Caiying’s mouth without waiting for her to speak.

As the medicine entered her body, Jiang Caiying’s complexion improved, and her lips regained some color. “Yang Chen, thank you.”

She didn’t expect Yang Chen to have some healing holy medicine with him. With the medicine, her injuries recovered much faster. Her injuries healed by three to four parts in just a blink of an eye, and it wasn’t difficult for her to recover completely.

How would she know that Yang Chen, as an alchemist, had dabbled extensively in the Pill Doctor’s Way, and these healing holy medicines were refined by him in his spare time. Unexpectedly, they came in handy at this moment.

With Jiang Caiying there, the two of them together wouldn’t really be afraid of Yu Feilong and Zhang Xing.

“Miss Jiang, there’s no need to thank me. Since we are allies, we must naturally do what allies should do. By the way, what’s the story with these two?” Yang Chen couldn’t help but ask.

Jiang Caiying listened to his words, her expression turned cold, and then she sighed: “Yu Feilong and Zhang Xing arrived here almost at the same time after breaking through the fifth level. At first they were well-behaved, but after hearing about the Tiandu Emperor’s treasure-selection, they became greedy and wanted my treasures, planning to attack me. Hmph!”

Resentment covered Jiang Caiying’s pretty face.

Yang Chen nodded secretly, as the process was almost exactly as he had guessed.

Seeing Jiang Caiying’s angry face, both Yu Feilong and Zhang Xing felt ashamed. After all, it was a disgraceful act for them to deal with a girl.

The key point was that they did it but didn’t succeed, which made it even more embarrassing.

However, Yu Feilong didn’t care about losing face now and shouted, “Yang Chen, I am a disciple of the Black Dragon Sect, and I believe that with your excellence in North Mountain County, you must have heard of the Black Dragon Sect from your elders. I advise you to weigh your own abilities before trying to play the hero. Some forces and people are not to be messed with.”

“Brother Yu, why be polite with them?” Zhang Xing sneered, “Just kill these two, and it’ll be over.”

Yu Feilong’s expression flickered with displeasure. Zhang Xing was a top genius affiliated with their Black Dragon Sect and had accompanied him for the purpose of aiding him. He didn’t want to reprimand Zhang Xing directly, but he couldn’t help but curse silently.

If it was so easy to kill the two, would it be his turn to talk? Yang Chen’s move just now seemed simple, but did you manage to solve it?

Yu Feilong was very realistic. Even though Yang Chen’s martial arts cultivation was not high – only at the Half-step Yuan Martial Realm – theoretically, he should be able to defeat Yang Chen at any time. However, Yang Chen’s moves from just now were not to be underestimated.
