Chapter 190
Princess Fragrance didn’t push it when she realized he was uninterested in chitchat. She nodded and said, “There are two hours left until we arrive at the capital of the Xia Dynasty. Please help yourself.”
There were chairs on the deck. Jiang Chen sat in one, and soon, a maid brought him snacks and tea.
Jiang Chen recognized the maid’s voice. She was the one who had yelled out to warn him.
Apprentice Brother Yun and others were unhappy when they saw Jiang Chen ignoring Princess Fragrance, aloof and with no intention to take his mask off.
But since Princess Fragrance wasn’t complaining, no one wanted to be the first to cast the stone.
Soon, they left both the interlude and Jiang Chen behind. Jiang Chen stayed in a corner alone, drinking below the white moonlight.
He heard their conversation and realized that the ones speaking were exactly the ones who had blamed him.
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but involve himself. He had to do something, no matter how it ended up.
Yun Xiao, Liu Peng and others all turned pale.
“What nonsense!” Liu Peng shouted at Jiang Chen. He was irritated.
“The class-two spiritual sword is a good match for your sword method. You compared yourself to Jiang Qingyu. Ridiculous,” Jiang Chen sneered.
This was the main reason that he had interrupted.
He almost spit out his tea when he saw the sword.
He thought Yun Xiao should have some real skill since he had boasted about his sword skills to that extent. He hadn’t expected him to be so lame.
He could ward off Yun Xiao’s attack with his right hand, and he wasn’t exaggerating at all.
“Princess, looks like someone is jealous of me, since you’ve gifted me the spiritual sword. I don’t think I can take it.” Yun Xiao squinted slightly. He held his temper and gave the class-four spiritual sword back to the princess.
It was a smart move. Prince Fragrance didn’t accept it. She looked at Jiang Chen and said, “My friend, I’m perfectly happy to give the sword to him.”
“All those who are deceived are perfectly happy. When a fraud is uncovered, it’s always those who were deceived the worst that defend the fraud the most.”
Jiang Chen walked over slowly and said, “You felt power in what he showed you just now, but you were ignorant of why it was powerful. You thought it powerful just because those people said so.”
Princess Fragrance was dumbstruck. She was pondering upon what he had said.
“Do I know you?” It seemed Yun Xiao intended to pierce the mask with a sharp look to see Jiang Chen’s face.
“Hum, Apprentice Brother Yun Xiao is ranked 134th on the Eternal Flame List. He’s better than thousands of people. What achievements do you have? What’s your rank? Tell us your name!” Liu Peng shouted. He was the guy who had cursed Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen smiled and said, “My rank? Let’s see… It’s fifty what?”
