Chapter 490
Chapter 490 – Benefactor
Jiang Chen’s words and disdainful expression had completely provoked Chang Qing and the other two disciples of the Asura Palace. Those guards were the first that could no longer stand his behavior.
“Damn fool, you can’t even keep your eyes open and look around?! How dare you be disrespectful to my young master?! You’re seeking death!”
The leading guard stretched out his arm and grabbed toward Jiang Chen.
Boom!
Argh!!
Followed by a painful shriek, the guard was sent flying straight out from the Golden Tower. The sudden event brought shock to everyone. Although the leading guard wasn’t really that powerful, he was a man who followed the young City Lord around, so he wasn’t weak either. In fact, he was a Mid Combat Soul warrior.
A Mid Combat Soul warrior had been sent flying just like that, and amazingly, that young man in white was sitting still without even having moved. The manager, Chang Qing, and the other two disciples of the Asura Palace were all Late Combat Soul warriors. They weren’t standing far away from Jiang Chen, but even so, none of them could see how Jiang Chen did it, and they were completely clueless about where the force that knocked the guard away came from.
The female disciple said with a cold voice.
Tan Lang furrowed his brows slightly, then he told the trio, “Let’s go, I’ll follow you to see who this brave man is.”
After saying that, Tan Lang leapt into the sky and flew toward the Golden Tower. This was obviously not the first time he had come to the Golden Tower. Chang Qing and the other two disciples looked at each other, and they could all see the same excitement in each other’s eyes. Without hesitating, they immediately followed after Tan Lang.
The Golden Tower had no other customers now, only Jiang Chen and Big Yellow were having a big feast by themselves. The manager and servant were watching from the side, their facial muscles violently twitching. This man and dog duo had incredibly big stomachs. From the beginning until now, they had eaten seven tables filled with food, and they were currently eating the eighth table full of dishes. No one knew when they were going to stop.
Right at this moment, a few strong auras appeared outside the Golden Tower. In the following moment, four figures appeared inside the Golden Tower. When Chang Qing saw Jiang Chen and Big Yellow still eating, a sneer emerged on his face.
“Senior disciple Tan, this is the guy!”
Chang Qing furiously pointed his finger at Jiang Chen.
At the same moment, Tan Lang saw Jiang Chen. However, when he saw Jiang Chen’s face, and especially the big yellow dog sitting opposite of him, he was struck dumb and glued to the ground, his face filled with shock. However, the shock quickly transformed into wild joy.
Jiang Chen who was fighting a difficult battle against his foot had long ago sensed a Combat King standing next to him. He was waiting for the newcomer to attack, but to his surprise, the newcomer had actually glued himself to the ground, and was showing no intentions of attacking.
Jiang Chen furrowed his brows. He couldn’t help but turn to the guy. When his eyes landed on the young black-clothed man, he too was shocked, because he knew this newcomer.
“Senior disciple Tan, he is that bastard I mentioned! Please teach him a lesson, let him know that the Asura Palace is not a place he can afford to offend!”
Chang Qing said, spirit high and vigorous, portraying an extremely arrogant attitude. He was like a fox assuming the majesty of the tiger; trying to bully someone under the protection of a powerful person.
Chang Qing’s words woke Tan Lang up from his shock. He didn’t teach Jiang Chen a lesson like Chang Qing had said, but instead turned around, stretched his arm forward and delivered a powerful slap to Chang Qing’s face.
Clasp!
It was a loud and clear slap that instantly caused Chang Qing’s face to swell up. Chang Qing was stunned by the slap, and not only him, the other two disciples were startled by what happened as well. They had no clue why Tan Lang didn’t attack that young man and dog, but instead turned his aggression toward those on his own side.
But soon, the truth was revealed to them.
They saw Tan Lang walk toward Jiang Chen, then stand up straight and bow deeply, “Benefactor.”
The word ‘benefactor’ instantly stunned Chang Qing and the other two disciples. They were completely blank in regards to the scene unfolding in front of them. However, they knew Tan Lang was a very prideful man, and a man who could make him bow so deeply must be a man with an extraordinary background. At least, this man was not someone they could afford to offend.
“I never expected it to be you.”
Jiang Chen smiled. This Tan Lang was none other than that young man in black who appeared at Mount Nether in the Southern Continent. Back then, when the battle had ended, that young man had left. He obviously had no intentions of getting involved in the Southern Continent’s conflicts. At that point, Jiang Chen had guessed that this man wasn’t someone from the Southern Continent, but instead might be someone from the Divine Continent. Jiang Chen had never expected to meet Tan Lang after just arriving at the Divine Continent.
Actually, it wasn’t surprising for Tan Lang to appear in the Divine Continent. After the war in the Southern Confident was concluded, Jiang Chen had spent a few months before setting off toward the Divine Continent. Apparently, Tan Lang had broken through to the Combat King realm after Jiang Chen saved him, and with the speed of a Combat King, as well as some other possible hidden tricks, it was not surprising for him to return to the Divine Continent so quickly.
