Chapter 1571 - Great. Great. He’s Really Great!
Things were worse on the Alien Battlefield than anyone could have ever imagined.
The place was packed with countless demons. They were literally everywhere.
These demons had not been transformed by demon energy, hostile energy, or killing intents in the Demonic Abyss.
They were real demons of real flesh and blood.
Back in the old days, a war between the Flying Dragon Dynasty and the Dragon Rebel Kingdom had broken out here. Millions of people died. The Alien Battlefield became a field littered with corpses.
The dead soldiers nourished the demons, so that they could be reborn and start over again.
By the time the war was over, there were ten Celestial Demons with intelligence.
During all the intervening years, these Celestial Demons kept improving themselves. They had all become Mysterious Demons.
The two muscular servants went immediately on guard. They grasped the iron sticks in their hands even more tightly.
“Isn’t this the mansion of the Gaos of the celestial phoenix?” asked Jiang Chen.
“Who are you?”
The two servants asked without answering him.
“I know many people from the Gaos,” said Jiang Chen.
“Look up and check it out for yourself.”
The servants answered rudely after exchanging a look between themselves.
Jiang Chen looked up. He saw it was Cheng written on the plaque instead of Gao.
“It’s the Cheng Mansion now?” Jiang Chen asked, puzzled.
He was wondering whether his grandpa or his uncle had leased the place.
However, the Gaos could not communicate with the Realm of Nine Heavens yet, except through him.
So it was impossible that he wouldn’t know if they had leased the place.
“Young man, you are ill-informed. Our lord is from the Three Middle Realms. There, he got to know Jiang Chen, namely, the grandson of the Gaos! By the way, have you ever heard of Jiang Chen?”
The servants started to talk to him since he was being nice and just curious.
“Jiang Chen? Who is he?” Jiang Chen asked, trying very hard to keep a straight face.
“Bumpkin, where are you from? You’ve never heard of Jiang Chen?”
A mean voice came from the mansion before the servants could answer.
Then a woman in green walked out at a very fast pace. She was pretty, but she was also very arrogant.
“If it please, my lady.”
The two servants greeted her with respect.
“If you see more people like this in the future, just drive them away.”
The young lady gave them orders concerning him, although Jiang Chen was right there.
“Let me tell you. Jiang Chen is a rare genius who everyone knows in the Three Lower Realms. He won first place in the Three Realms Competition once! His father even eliminated the Sacred Martial Arts Institute with only one sword strike.”
Not until then did this young lady look toward Jiang Chen. She continued complacently, “Jiang Chen went to the Three Middle Realms later. He met my father by chance there. My father valued his great talent and gave him some instructions. He should be a Star Venerable by now.
“By the way, have you ever heard of a Star Venerable? That’s a state above the Mental Wander State, the Reaching Heaven State, Martial Venerable, Spiritual Venerable, and Celestial Venerable. Now you know!
“If it had not been for my father’s kindness, he might not have achieved so much.”
The young lady sneered disdainfully after speaking. She didn’t even bother to cast him one more glance.
“So is that why Jiang Chen gave the mansion away to your father?” Jiang Chen was amused.
“He begged my father to take it. After all, Jiang Chen is a grateful person,” said the young lady.
“That being said, if your father is so great in the Three Middle Realms, why did he return to the Realm of Nine Heavens?”
Jiang Chen didn’t remember anyone whose family name was Cheng who had instructed him.
“Huh, I knew you’d ask this. The Ice Spirit invaded the Three Middle Realms. My father was fearless, but, with a big family, he had to move here with us.”
The young lady explained the situation to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen wasn’t sure whether she was knowingly lying.
“Okay. I see,” he answered. There was nothing he could do right now.
“That was a year ago, when the Ice Spirit was going to freeze the Three Middle Realms into a world of ice and snow?” Jiang Chen questioned her.
“As I’m sure you don’t know.”
His reaction caused the young lady’s disdain. She said, “Let me test you. Do you know who lifted the crisis of the Three Middle Realms?”
“That Jiang Chen?” said Jiang Chen.
“You are clever. Exactly. That Jiang Chen turned the tide. He’d grown into a very strong person by then. He shattered the Ice Spirit into pieces. And my father instructed him while he was growing up.”
“Great. Great. This Jiang Chen is really great. By the way, your father is great too,” said Jiang Chen.
