Chapter 492 - Li Yaqin
“As expected, he isn’t a Venerable.”
After the disciples of the Tai Yue School had seen Jiang Chen standing beside Meng Shuiyan, killing intent was ablaze in their eyes. They were holding sharp weapons in their hands.
However, bearing their apprentice sister’s instructions in mind, they only blocked the two people’s way instead of rushing to attack.
Meng Shuiyan didn’t respond immediately when she had been yelled at. She looked towards Jiang Chen.
As expected, she saw an angry face.
She had told him that she had been chased by Hu Fei because she had intended to steal a valuable treasure from the Tai Yue School, but had failed.
By then, Jiang Chen learned that she had actually succeeded. That changed everything.
In the Dragon Field, Ning Haotian was already a rare genius, and he, Jiang Chen, was rarer.
But in the Realm of Milky, he had run into a stronger one so easily.
When I go to the Three Middle Realms, will Venerable be an average level among youngsters? Jiang Chen couldn’t help but think.
“Didn’t you just say you wouldn’t help?” a disciple of the Tai Yue School asked.
“I meant I wouldn’t fight against you,” Jiang Chen said with a disdainful smile.
The disciple was about to continue speaking, but Li Yaqin cut him off.
“You were the one who left the sword wound on Hu Fei?”
“Yes.”
“Your swordsmanship is good enough to get a golden loop. Since you killed Hu Fei, you can replace him and become a disciple of the Tai Yue School.” What Li Yaqin said was totally surprising. She had invited him to join the Nine Great Forces instead of killing him.
Jiang Chen didn’t come to himself for a moment. He said, “So anyone who wants to join your school only needs to kill someone from your school?”
“Not just anyone.” Li Yaqin didn’t explain. She was waiting for Jiang Chen’s answer.
“I’m too busy to join the Tai Yue School.”
It would meet Nan Gong and Shui Yuan’s expectation for him if he joined the Tai Yue School, one of the Nine Great Forces in the Realm of Milky, to practice.
But that wasn’t what he wanted. He was going to look around in the Realm of Milky to find a fast and effective way to improve.
Meng Shuiyan and the Tai Yue School’s disciples didn’t expect his rejection.
They really wanted to ask him whether he knew what he had declined.
Meng Shuiyuan had mentioned to him the Tai Yue School’s position in the Middle State. It wasn’t easy to become a disciple there.
“Go to hell then.”
Li Yaqin didn’t show any emotion. Not long after Jiang Chen’s rejection, the azure light appeared again. This time, it flew across the sky like a piece of silk cloth.
Jiang Chen turned around to run away without saying anything.
He wasn’t afraid he wouldn’t be a match for Li Yaqin, but he was afraid someone stronger would show up after he defeated her.
“You!”
Meng Shuiyan was surprised that Jiang Chen had started running without her, but she also reacted quickly to follow him.
The disciples of the Tai Yue School tried to stop them, but Jiang Chen forced his way through.
“You managed to dodge my sword attack?” Li Yaqin didn’t move. She was shocked.
In a competition of martial arts techniques, if one party ran away directly like what Jiang Chen had, and the Azure Ray Sword hit nothing as a result, it meant there was a huge gap between the two rivals.
However, such judgment didn’t take fight doctrine into account.
After all, Jiang Chen had managed to see through the attack. He hadn’t exerted the fight doctrine.
If they really exchanged blows, it would be difficult to say which one would win.
“Chase them!” Li Yaqin also started to chase when she had come to herself.
Compared to the valuable treasure Meng Shuiyan had, she was more interested in Jiang Chen.
She wanted a good fight to test him and improve her swordsmanship!
Jiang Chen made her see where she could continue improving as a Reaching Heaven State, because the elders of her school had told her as a Reaching Heaven State that her swordsmanship had reached the limit!
