Chapter 1671 - Martial Arts Saint
Anyone who could gather so many people together must be an extraordinary person.
This was especially true in a place like Wind Cloud City, a huge metropolis with all different kinds of sophisticated people.
“All intelligent life within a 1,000-mile radius of Wind Cloud City is not allowed to leave.”
This extraordinary individual’s voice could be heard, spreading the same message all over the city, over and over again.
At the moment, it was daybreak. This normally silent time of day had been turned into a bustling, market-like atmosphere due to what was happening.
Jiang Chen could have just left straightaway, since he was up in the air.
Soon hordes of people from all the corners of the city rushed over.
The big shots came to a sudden realization. Their previous attitudes toward Jiang Chen of doubt and contempt had turned into confused, complex ones instead.
The people here had all witnessed Jiang Chen being saved by the Will of the Natural Law and reborn.
“So, what if you are Jiang Chen? If you take our stuff, you must give it back.” Another lord of the city, Jue Feng, felt that that would be fair.
“That’s right, at least let us know what kind of treasure it was.”
“Yeah, Jiang Chen, what are you doing?”
“Could it be that you think that since you were once saved by the Will of the Natural Law you can do anything you want? That you can leave here right in front of us after stealing our treasure simply by announcing your name?”
The big shots were annoyed. They wanted straightforward answers from Jiang Chen.
“I have already made myself clear. I called you here to tell you that the stuff is now in my possession. Anyone who is unhappy about it can fight me, simple as that.”
Jiang Chen gave a straightforward answer.
An incredible uproar broke out all over Wind Cloud City, as Jiang Chen dared to challenge all these Venerable Sovereigns.
Not only had he taken the treasure from the underground world of Wind Cloud City, he wanted all the inhabitants of Wind Cloud City to just shut up and respect him.
“Even if you are Jiang Chen, what you have done is too much. That treasure was under Wind Cloud City. With your taking it away like that, who knows if it’s going to affect Wind Cloud City?” Someone yelled their opinion.
Some didn’t know what would happen if the origin of fire were to erupt, and some thought that it was some kind of blessed treasure.
“Previously, I’d tried to talk sense with you. You told me the fist was your only absolute principle. Now that I’ve shown my fist, you want to talk sense with me instead.”
“All right, all right.”
Jiang Chen shrugged and said grudgingly, “First of all, Wind Cloud City moved on top of my inheritance and covered it up, causing me a lot of trouble. I didn’t pay attention to that matter. However, then the fire energy underground went out of control. If it hadn’t been for me, the whole city of yours would have been blasted into smithereens. And I didn’t even ask to get paid.”
“Why should I believe what you just said?” shouted Jue Yun.
“I didn’t expect you to believe.” Jiang Chen laughed. “What I want is to see you accept these facts, even if you don’t believe them.”
“Arrogant! Presumptuous!”
No matter how one looked at it, the weak Jiang Chen was the one expressing the arrogance that the strongman group from Wind Cloud City should have been expressing instead.
“All right! All right!”
The two lords, Jue Yun and Jue Feng, were the angriest of the group. Jiang Chen’s words had hit them smack in the face.
“Jiang Chen, you said that the fire energy was going to blast Wind Cloud City into smithereens. Where did you get this information?” Another man asked a question. However, this one was from the Dragon Race. The meaning of his question was different.
“Source? How’s this, for example. I, who’ve acquired the fire energy, can blast these guys into the sky.”
Jiang Chen smiled coldly as he opened his right hand. A golden flame was jumping around in his palm.
After having had one practicing body killed by the black robed man of the Blood Race, Jiang Chen always did things quietly.
There was only one reason for him to have so much confidence right now: It was the confidence he had gotten from obtaining the true source of fire.
If Xiao Hongxue had been here, they would have had an epic duel.
Another very important reason for Jiang Chen’s extreme confidence at this time was that his power level was about to break through from the early stage of Martial Arts Saint to the middle stage of Martial Arts Saint.
To Venerable Sovereigns, this didn’t mean anything, however, his heart power would be strengthened as well.
