Chapter 1575 - PAH!
A cloud in the sky disappeared as Shuo Jin finished speaking.
Then a giant figure took its place. It was the Elder that Shuo Jin had mentioned.
With gray hair and a face almost devoid of wrinkles, he didn’t look very old. He looked as if he was in the best of health. If he had been dressed in a different way, some people would’ve even believed that he was in the prime of life.
“You can’t even deal with a declining Sacred Institute without me?”
The Elder arrived, complaining.
“Elder, we have a good reason to call on you. It’s because of that man,” Shuo Jin hurried to explain himself.
“Shut up. Reasons are just losers’ excuses. I don’t want to hear any.”
Then this Lightning Thunder Elder stopped over the Sacred City.
Not even able to go on flying, he fell from the air.
“No one is allowed to fly in the Sacred City,” Jiang Chen said in a deep voice.
“This…this…this…”
Those who wanted to speak found themselves too excited to say anything. They were tongue-tied. No one could express themselves clearly.
However, all of them were asking themselves the same question silently.
That question was, “who on earth was this young man?”
“Why did he have such dreadful strength that could even surprise ghosts and gods?”
“What?!”
Shuo Jin, who’d been extremely arrogant, was startled. He decided to run away with his subordinates, completely disregarding the Elder’s safety.
Jiang Chen certainly wouldn’t let them get away with that. He clutched at the air to gather the Lightning Thunder Race together, including the Elder.
“You’re too strong. You shouldn’t be in the Realm of Nine Heavens. You’ve violated the rules!”
The Elder spoke loudly. He still couldn’t accept what was happening.
“What if I’m from the Realm of Nine Heavens?” Jiang Chen answered him with a question.
The Elder was petrified. This sudden information struck him dumb. “Who? Who the h*ll are you?”
Everyone there wanted to ask the same question.
Cheng Renlong walked up at a fast pace before Jiang Chen could respond. He knelt down on the ground and started kowtowing to Jiang Chen.
People were struck dumb once again. No one knew what had happened.
“Father?”
The arrogant Cheng Hong was struck dumb too. How could her father, her idol, kneel down before that man? She could hardly believe it.
“You already know who I am?” Jiang Chen asked with curiosity.
“Yes. Yes. I’m sorry. Please forgive me. No. No. Kill me, but please let my family go.”
Recalling all of the details from the beginning until that moment, Cheng Renlong had guessed who this person was. He was scared to death.
How a person thinks of himself or herself differs a lot from what others think of them.
Because people know themselves truly because of their thoughts and emotions.
However, others know you only through what you do and what you say.
No matter how people think of themselves, it is what they do and what they say that will affect others’ opinions of them.
Jiang Chen thought he was a person who discriminated between love and hate clearly and would fight back when he was unfairly treated.
But his enemies didn’t think so.
For example, his enemies from the Ancient Race despised him. Almost all Ancients regarded Jiang Chen as a devil who had killed a lot of people, as the nemesis of the Ancient Race.
Cheng Renlong had never met Jiang Chen in person, but since he needed to use him to lie to people, he had investigated everything about Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen had almost overturned the arrogant Blood Shadow Dynasty alone in the Three Middle Realms. Numerous people had died or been injured because of him.
In the Seventh Realm, namely, the Realm of Heavenly Martial Arts, wherever he went, blood flowed like a river.
Many people saw Jiang Chen as an evil person who would kill people without even blinking an eye.
Cheng Renlong conned others in his name, and this had now come to an end since Jiang Chen was face to face with him here, but he didn’t wet his pants from fear yet. He was super-uneasy.
“I gave you a chance before,” said Jiang Chen.
Now, Cheng Renlong really wet his pants.
He felt extremely repentant.
“But you’ve got another chance because of what you said just now when you were begging for my mercy,” added Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen was satisfied with his attitude. He had chosen to sacrifice his own life for the safety of his family.
Besides, he’d never intended to kill Cheng Renlong’s entire family just because of a con.
