Chapter 413
Chapter 413 – It’s him!
Everyone present were shocked, even Jiang Chen was surprised. He never expected Wu Ningzhu to be the one to appear in this third match. In fact, back in the Dancing Sun City, Jiang Chen could be considered Wu Ningzhu’s savior. The reason why Jiang Chen hid his identity and left in such a hurry was because he didn’t want to have any connection with Wu Ningzhu. He had decided to not get involved in the conflict between the Demon King Palace and Profound River Palace. Once he settled all matters here regarding the Nangong family, he would return to the Eastern Continent. He was after all just a traveler in the Southern Continent.
However, things rarely went perfectly according to plan. He had once again met Wu Ningzhu, the famous number one genius of the Southern Continent. With Wu Ningzhu’s excellent judgment, if Jiang Chen participated in this third match, she would definitely recognize him. However, if Jiang Chen didn’t participate in this third match, no one from the Nangong family would be able to fight Wu Ningzhu.
Heavens Will!
“How could it be Wu Ningzhu? Gone, all hope for the Nangong family is now gone.”
An ugly expression could be seen on Nangong Yunfan’s face. As the Nangong family chief, he knew more than anyone else how frightening Wu Ningzhu was. This genius of the Profound River Palace had grown up, and she was not someone Tu Yi could hope to match.
“Sigh… With the Profound River Palace’s Holy Maiden here, we can just skip the third match. With my strength, I won’t be able to withstand more than ten attacks from her.”
Tu Yi let out along sigh. Although he had a formidable cultivation, he knew his limits. He knew there was a huge gap between his and Wu Ningzhu’s combat strength. Judging from the current situation, the Nangong family was going to fall.
Jiang Chen nodded his head. Right now, there was no longer any need to hide his identity. With Wu Ningzhu’s excellent judgment, she would be able to immediately recognize Jiang Chen.
“Ningzhu wishes to thank young master for saving my life. I never thought I’d be able to meet young master again.”
Wu Ningzhu gently bowed toward Jiang Chen, expressing her gratitude for what Jiang Chen had done. She was still able to remember what happened back in the Dancing Sun City. The entire city was completely sealed up, and if not for this young man appearing at a critical moment, the city might have been completely destroyed, and her father and family members would have been killed by those ferocious demons. Even she herself might have been captured by the Demon King Palace. Although she might still have been able to keep her life, she would surely have been greatly humiliated.
Therefore, no matter how prideful Wu Ningzhu was, she would never forget the kindness Jiang Chen had shown her, and since that day onwards, Jiang Chen’s image had been deeply carved in her heart.
Although Wu Ningzhu’s voice wasn’t particularly loud, it was more than enough to let everyone hear what she just said.
“What’s going on? Why is Wu Ningzhu thanking him? Why is she behaving so politely to this guy?”
“Wu Ningzhu thanked him for saving her life… I know! A couple of days ago, the Dancing Sun City was attacked by the Demon King Palace, and a young white-clothed man appeared at the most critical moment! He faced his Heavenly Tribulation in the city and killed three great guardians of the Demon King Palace! So, that white-clothed youngster is actually this guy!”
“Oh heavens! So this is him?! The great hero the Profound River Palace has been looking for! So, he has been staying with the Nangong family all this time? We’re so ignorant! A man who can kill great guardians of the Demon King Palace and attract Heavenly Tribulation is a monstrous existence!”
…………
Everybody became extremely excited. They had all heard about what happened in the Dancing Sun City not long ago, and when they looked at the clothing of this young man, he indeed resembled the man they had heard about! An existence who attracted Heavenly Tribulation when breaking through to the Combat Soul realm; that was a peerless monster!
“Haha, so it turns out that man was nephew Jiang! I’m such an old fool for not even considering that! Amazing, this is really amazing! With nephew Jiang’s help, the Nangong family will be able to safely pass through this crisis!”
Nangong Yunfan burst into laughter.
“I too never thought about this! That peerless monster was actually hidden in the Nangong family grounds all this time! Looks like we’ve truly neglected him! This is what I call a true genius! Since Jiang Chen is Wu Ningzhu’s savior, we’re now in an advantageous position!”
Tu Yi suddenly felt relaxed, and the way he looked at Jiang Chen had slowly become serious. He wasn’t alone, the way all the upper echelons of the Nangong family looked at Jiang Chen had changed tremendously. Although they hadn’t seen what happened in the Dancing Sun City, they too had received news about what happened. A man who faced Heavenly Tribulation while breaking through to the Combat Soul realm, this was huge news that no one could ignore.
“Dad, what are you all talking about? How did Little Chen know Wu Ningzhu?”
Nangong Wentian asked with a curious expression.
