Chapter 224
This was the greatest card in Jiang Chen’s hand to kill the Third Prince.
It was a secret method, but it could be called a magic method due to its magical effects.
If one exerted this secret method in a fight, all of one’s injuries would be converted to power.
The more heavily one was injured, the more formidable power one would get.
Jiang Chen had managed to take the Third Prince’s hard punches. It was unimaginable how powerful he now was.
However, this status would only last for a few minutes.
Jiang Chen wasn’t going to waste more of his time. He was going to finish what he had came for.
“Come on. Help me get to my feet. You’ve defeated me. We don’t owe each other anymore. This is my reward to you,” the Third Prince said.
Jiang Chen suddenly opened his eyes. The energy of the sword soared into the sky. He drew a half moon with his left foot on the ground and turned around.
The Third Prince flew into the air and whirled there. He didn’t even see what had happened.
He saw a corpse without a head kneeling down there from an angle that he had never tried before.
He looks so familiar…
As soon as the thought occurred to him, the darkness fell upon him like a flame that had been extinguished.
The Third Prince was dead!
The whole crowd went crazy, everyone screaming. No one could sit still anymore. They were all on their feet, trying to figure out whether it was true.
The Third Prince was dead. Even the Golden Immortality of the Great Overarching Heaven wouldn’t be able to save him.
The crowd suddenly quieted down after the turmoil, because as soon as the barrier had disappeared, the armed soldiers had put Jiang Chen under siege.
On the palace wall, the emperor of the Xia Palace had a dark expression. Everyone could see how much he hated Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen had ignored him and killed his son in front of so many people. He had disrespected the majesty of the royal family. All of this would destroy him.
As the soldiers approached Jiang Chen, he was very weak. People could sense the change in his energy.
Bang!
At this time, Whitty landed in front of Jiang Chen from the air. He snarled at the soldiers.
The tiger’s growl shocked the soldiers and awakened the crowd in the square.
“Is Jiang Chen’s death the only accepted result in this fight?!” someone shouted loudly and broke the dull atmosphere.
It was the guy who had asked Jiang Chen not to disappoint him in the fight with the Third Prince. He didn’t chicken out at this moment and came forward first.
“Right. The royal family didn’t try to stop when he asked for the fight, or when the barrier was deployed, but now you want to take revenge?” Shui Sheng from the Exquisite Sect also shouted.
“Shui Sheng!”
Her apprentice brothers and sisters and the elders beside her immediately looked towards her sternly.
Before they could reproach her, the anger in people’s hearts had been ignited.
They recalled Jiang Chen’s performance in the ring. They were all encouraged by his persistence and fearlessness before authority, and they had been holding hatred towards the Third Prince for such a long time. They couldn’t take it anymore.
“That’s right. The Xia Dynasty is the only dynasty in the Fire Field. Do your people’s lives mean nothing to you?”
“The Third Prince killed so many people. He completely trampled on the law, but the royal family has never done anything about it.”
“It was a fair duel today. Jiang Chen killed the bad guy for the people. Why are you attacking him?”
“Right! Let him go! Let him go!”
“Let him go! Let him go!”
Thousands of people were shouting for Jiang Chen in the square. Anyone in the universe would be touched.
The royal soldiers surrounding Jiang Chen were sweating. They looked at each other, unable to hold their spears steady.
“This…”
The emperor flew into a rage at first, then it occurred to him that the Venerable of the Sacred Institute was beside him. He panicked.
He looked towards the Venerable, who was looking at him, puzzled, as he had expected.
“Without the support of the people, the only dynasty in the Fire Field will be replaced sooner or later,” the Venerable said casually.
The emperor turned pale immediately. He hurried to gesture to Xue Jingtian.
Xue Jingtian waved his hand and the soldiers in the square were relieved from duty. They left as quickly as possible.
“Hooray!”
“Truth will prevail!”
Countless people were cheering as if they’d won a battle. Even those who weren’t on Jiang Chen’s side were moved.
