Jiang Chen became the center of attention. The attention was created because his emergence had provoked their anger. It was a great provocation to all the young men of Gu Family to see the two of them being in love in public. Of course, that was just their emotion. They were smart enough to know their own limitations and were definitely not qualified to compete with Jiang Chen.
However, that didn’t mean that Gu Liufeng wasn’t qualified to battle against him. Today was the family meeting and Gu Liufeng couldn’t stay silent anymore. However, Jiang Chen was the man who had killed Shi Han, so Gu Liufeng wouldn’t have a high chance of defeating him.
Jiang Chen and Wu Ningzhu had turned a deaf ear to these comments.
*Dong* *Dong* *Dong*
The rhythm of the drum became rapid. Over twenty silhouettes suddenly emerged on a tall platform ahead. The atmosphere turned silent the moment they appeared and as a light majestic aura was drifting in the air. Each and everyone in Gu Family was looking at the tall platform with respect.
“Exceedingly powerful. No wonder he was able to kill Shi Han. But, Brother Liufeng is ranked fourth on the Sky Ranking, he is a half-step Great Saint. I can’t believe that, given his current cultivation grade, he can’t even stand a single attack from a Seventh Grade Minor Saint.”
“This is terrifying. That man is truly a monster. Do you all realize that Jiang Chen’s combat strength has improved by many times after he transformed? Brother Liufeng has acquired great benefits from his recent trial. His current strength is enough to deal with Shi Han and Kong Yan but it is no match to Jiang Chen’s strength.”
……..
Everyone was astonished. Not only the young generations, but Gu Xuantian, Gu Lan and the higher ups of Gu Family also were flabbergasted. As a matter of fact, hearing and witnessing the battle were two entirely different experience. They didn’t see how Jiang Chen managed to kill Shi Han, but they knew Gu Liufeng was an outstanding genius. Now, this outstanding genius had lost in the first round of the battle.
“Gu Liufeng. You are strong, but you aren’t as strong as Shi Han. But I know that you will be reluctant if I ask you to admit defeat. So, I will convince you that you are at the jaws of defeat.”
The bones in Jiang Chen’s body created cracking sounds. Every part of his body was pumped with busting energy that roared continuously. Dharma seals were condensing around Jiang Chen’s body before it turned into real dragons. Every dragon illuminated five different lights, as if real dragons had descended from the heavens.
He struck out the Five Elemental Combat Dragon Seal. Five different seals were launched at the same time. Fifteen dragons with different attributes formed a circle that surrounded Gu Liufeng.
It was no doubt that Gu Liufeng was powerful but he was still weaker than Shi Han. Jiang Chen needed a lot more effort to kill Shi Han but his strike was enough to take Gu Liufeng down as his purpose was to defeat him, not to kill him.
“Big Brother, Jiang Chen’s combat technique is really powerful. Did you notice that his attack consists of five different elements? I have to admit that it is truly a scary technique.”
“That’s right. The five elements should be repelling each other but Jiang Chen is able to integrate them perfectly into his technique. It’s extremely rare. I never imagined that there is such unbelievable techniques in the world.”
Gu Lan and Gu Xuantian were truly shaken. Even with their knowledge and experience, they had never seen such a technique before.
“This kid is super scary. His future is inestimable.”
“Too powerful in my opinion! Even though I am a First Grade Great Saint, I will probably be dead if I receive this attack.”
“It seems Liufeng is going to lose the battle. It is clear that it wasn’t a fluke that Jiang Chen killed Shi Han. It was his true ability. His combat strength really frightens me.”
……..
No one was able to calm themselves. The outcome of the battle was already decided. Jiang Chen didn’t try to play tricks on Gu Liufeng. He had struck out his most powerful attack to defeat Gu Liufeng. This indicated a form of respect towards Gu Liufeng.
On the battle platform, even if Gu Liufeng exhausted all his skills and techniques, he wouldn’t be able to withstand Jiang Chen’s Five Elemental Combat Dragon Seal. When all the violent combat waves faded and dissipated, Gu Liufeng became visible again. Currently, he looked fazed. Blood was trickling from the corner of his mouth. His Qi had gone unstable. It was obvious, that Gu Liufeng had received severe backlash from the attack just now.
“I lost.”
Gu Liufeng revealed a wry smile. Although he still had some strength left, the previous impact had told him everything. Any further, the battle would be pointless as he was no match for Jiang Chen. In other words, if this was a life-and-death battle, Jiang Chen would have killed him.
Jiang Chen kept his dragon transformation and jumped down from the battle platform, and came to Wu Ningzhu’s side. Her current facial expression was full of joy. She still remembered that Jiang Chen would defeat all men for her. And Jiang Chen had never lost before.
“Patriarch, Liufeng has fully accepted his defeat. Brother Jiang is truly a rare genius who only appears once every thousand years. It won’t be a humiliation to marry Ningzhu to him.”
Gu Liufeng held his fists to Gu Xuantian and said. As a matter of fact, he had already known the intimacy between Jiang Chen and Wu Ningzhu but he refused to accept it. However, today’s battle with Jiang Chen had finally made him convinced. He was like Gu Xuantian, a man of conscience. There was nothing to be said when he lost the battle. Meanwhile, Jiang Chen had Gu Liufeng’s respect for fighting with his true strength.
At this time, Gu Mu stood up from the group. He took out the betrothal gifts and passed it to Gu Xuantian and Gu Lan.
“Patriarch, Elder Gu Lan, these are the betrothal gifts from Jiang Chen, 1.5 billion high grade True Meta Stones, 3 Nine Solar Lightning-Dragon pills and 10 bottles of Nine Solar Saint Water.”
Gu Mu was shrewd at picking the right timing. He announced all the items of betrothal gifts right after Gu Liufeng admitted defeat, causing a commotion from the crowd below. It was a different feeling when they saw these items with their own eyes. Many of them started to look at Jiang Chen in an ablazed gaze, agreeing that Jiang Chen was absolutely rich.
“Xiao Lan, what do you think?”
Gu Xuantian looked over at Gu Lan.
“I’m fine with him.”
Gu Lan was very satisfied with her son-in-law.
“Alright. Jiang Chen. In this trip to propose marriage, you have faced numerous tests but you overcame them with sincerity. Given your talent, it is our honor to accept you as the son-in-law of Gu Family. I am now using the authority of patriarch to permit your proposal of marriage with Wu Ningzhu.”
Gu Xuantian kept all the betrothal gifts and said. This matter had finally come to a conclusion. As for Gu Liufeng, he was fully convinced after his defeat. Gu Xuantian wouldn’t need to worry about his feelings anymore. If the person he selected couldn’t even deal with this defeat, it meant he had selected the wrong one.
“Thank you, Patriarch.”
Jiang Chen and Wu Ningzhu said at the same time. Jiang Chen’s expression seemed ordinary but Wu Ningzhu’s facial expression was filled with intense joy that couldn’t be concealed.
Jiang Chen heaved a sigh of relief in his heart as the matter of Gu Family had finally come to an end.
