Chapter 1573 - A Finger
“It’s him!”
Cheng Hong exclaimed loudly, while all the others were baffled.
She recognized him at first glance. He was the same ignorant man who she had been talking to at the entrance of her home.
She definitely didn’t expect him to have enough courage to stand up to fight Shuo Xin.
“What is it? Do you know him?” Cheng Renlong, her father, asked curiously.
“I just met him outside our house a little while ago.”
Cheng Hong told her father what had happened briefly. She didn’t forget to add in a sarcastic voice, “Father, he had never even heard of your great name.”
“He knows the Gaos of the celestial phoenix?”
Judging from Jiang Chen’s age, they guessed that it was the first reason.
“Ha, ha, ha, Sacred Institute, are you at your wit’s end? You found this guy to try to bluff us. You think the problem will be solved in this way?”
Shuo Xin burst out laughing sarcastically.
She thought the Sacred Institute was just bluffing.
“What are you thinking? You think I’ll be scared off by him?”
Then Shuo Xin walked up fearlessly. She was wearing short-sleeved clothes. Electric arcs were jumping around her slim arms. She looked splendid.
She was wearing bracelets on her wrists, but the black steel bracelets didn’t look decorative at all.
“Shuo Xin, watch out,” Shuo Jin warned her.
His instincts warned him that Jiang Chen was not a simple person.
“Father, calm down. What kind of dangerous fighter do you think the Sacred Institute could find?” Shuo Xin asked disdainfully.
“Well, you’re probably right.”
Shuo Jin had to admit she had a point.
“Bring it on. Let me see how strong you are.”
Shuo Xin spoke to Jiang Chen in a sarcastic tone.
Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders. Then he extended one finger.
People were confused by what he was doing. They didn’t know what he was going to do next.
“I’ll defeat you with one finger,” Jiang Chen said seriously.
In this way, he wouldn’t have to exert his strength too much.
This statement of Jiang Chen started an enormous disturbance. Shuo Xin’s pretty face became terrifying.
She had been disdainful before, but now she was in a rage.
CRACK!
She swung her wrists. Just like the Infinite Sai, the steel bracelets she was wearing transformed into two short knives the length of daggers.
The blades had gentle curves. They were extremely sharp, shining with a cold metal light.
Then her arms lit up like ornaments. The brilliant electric arcs surged into the short knives.
She launched an attack as fierce as an ocean storm in an instant.
With the momentum of thunder, the short knives were moving fast and fiercely.
The sudden battle pushed the onlookers to take one and then another step back so that they wouldn’t be affected by the battle.
PAH! PAH! PAH!
Soon, they stopped retreating. They stared incredulously, one by one, as if they had been struck dumb.
No matter how dazzling Shuo Xin’s attack was, Jiang Chen was just standing where he had started, resisting the electric blades with only one finger.
“How is this possible?!”
The man next to Ying Wushuang was given a good scare, as if he’d been struck by thunder.
Even Shuo Xin herself couldn’t believe what was happening. She snarled in anger. The electricity all over her body surged into the short knives so that the blades extended half a foot in length.
However, Jiang Chen and that delicate, slim index finger still didn’t even move an inch.
Sparks broke out when the blades, sharp enough to slice steel, made contact with the finger.
Shuo Xin tried her best, but she couldn’t pose any threat to Jiang Chen.
At first, the onlookers were shocked. Then they got used to his power. However, finally, they were shocked once again.
“Is he that strong?”
Cheng Hong could hardly believe that the guy who she thought was a bumpkin was actually so strong.
“Shuo Xin, come back.”
Shuo Jin looked awful. He knew they would absolutely lose this fight.
But his daughter still refused to recognize that fact. She continued attacking.
Every CLANG that came from the blow exchanges sounded like a slap in the Lightning Thunder Race’s face.
Shuo Jin had to go out and pull his daughter back in person.
“Get your hands off me. Believe me, I will win!” Shuo Xin shouted, crying.
