Chapter 453: If You Wish to Fight, I’m Happy to Accompany

“Before you came, he just caused a stir in Yanxian City, and gave Bai Shengrong a beating…”

Facing Xu Kun’s confusion and doubt, Xu Yan briefly recounted what happened today during the day.

“He beat Bai Shengrong?”

Upon hearing this, Xu Kun was instantly shocked.

He certainly knew who Bai Shengrong was.

He was the Second Young Master of the Bai Family, who grew up with a silver spoon, and there were hardly any people in Yanzhou who dared to offend him.

Especially in Yanxian City.

But what puzzled Bai Shengrong was that Bai Shenghao was Bai Shengrong’s elder brother.

When his younger brother was beaten by someone, not only did he not help him to regain his dignity, he even befriended Ji Chen?

“Sorry for keeping everyone waiting.”

Bai Shenghao walked into the pavilion, smiling and cupping his hands toward everyone, “Let me introduce two friends. This is Miss Yao Qian from the Yao Family in Liu City, and this is Brother Ji Chen.”

“Oh?”

Upon hearing Bai Shenghao’s words, everyone’s gaze was naturally focused on Ji Chen, “You must be Ji Chen?”

Clearly, when they first arrived in Yanxian City, they had all heard more or less about this name.

It was said that this person’s origins were unknown, but in his confrontation with Bai Shengrong, he displayed Great Dao Sword Intent and possessed some special physique, extremely powerful, once clashing against the Bai Family’s Ancient Immortal Technique with his fists and palms.

Ji Chen did not speak, he just slightly cupped his fists and then, under Bai Shenghao’s guidance, sat down in an empty spot with Yao Qian.

“I’ve heard Brother Ji’s physique is extraordinary and can defy Ancient Immortal Techniques. I didn’t expect such a figure to emerge in Yanzhou; we are indeed ignorant.”

“May I ask Brother Ji, what are your origins? What kind of physique do you possess?” Someone opened up to ask.

And in response to their words, Ji Chen pondered for a moment before speaking, “To be honest, I am from the Lower Realm, newly arrived in the Immortal Realm. As for my physique, it is of a type you probably have not heard of, the ‘Hongmeng Body.'”

In his view, there was no point in hiding these matters.

All present had extraordinary backgrounds, either hailing from Noble Families or powerful sects. If they really wanted to investigate, it wouldn’t take them more than a few days to know he came from the Lower Realm Plane.

Regarding the Hongmeng Body, indeed as said, this physique belonged to one of the Nine Great Divine Bodies by Daoxuan, unlikely to be known in the Immortal Realm.

And indeed it was as Ji Chen had thought.

After hearing about the ‘Hongmeng Body,’ everyone had no concept of it, having never before heard of such a physique.

But upon knowing Ji Chen was from the Lower Realm, they couldn’t help being surprised.

Clearly, with the strength Ji Chen had shown, everyone initially thought he might be a genius concealed by some Noble Family or sect for many years, only recently emerging.

Unexpectedly, he was similar to Wang Xiyuan, a young talent from the Lower Realm.

“Your Great Dao Sword Intent is strong, if there’s a chance, I’d quite like to seek your advice.” From somewhere in the crowd, such a voice suddenly emerged.

Everyone’s gaze naturally turned to look, and then they saw the speaker was a youth in purple garments, none other than Wang Xiyuan.

Ji Chen locked eyes with him, and through the hushed discussions among those present, learned the other’s name, he couldn’t help but smile, “I’ve long heard of Brother Wang’s name, today I’m fortunate to meet you.”

“It’s not so much a renowned name, merely blown out of proportion by others. In the vast Immortal Domain, I’m merely a lone boat on an ocean, with a long way to go yet.”

His words left Ji Chen somewhat surprised.

He had thought the other might be of an arrogant nature, but reality showed quite the opposite.

“I thought Brother Ji was a descendant of some Ancient Family, didn’t expect you were just from the Lower Realm.”

Such a faint voice drifted into the ears, seemingly carrying a touch of mockery.

All eyes turned once more, including Ji Chen’s, looked over.

Sure enough, the speaker had a young man beside him, clearly Xu Kun.

When he first arrived here, Ji Chen had already noticed Xu Kun’s presence, and the young man seated beside Xu Kun, the speaker, bore a resemblance to Xu Kun, and likely was Xu Kun’s brother, Xu Yan.

Everyone couldn’t help but squint slightly, able to hear a hint of animosity from Xu Yan’s words.

They were puzzled, clearly unaware of any grudge between Ji Chen and Xu Yan.

In reality, the two did not have any grudge.

Right now, Xu Yan was targeting Ji Chen merely to restore his brother Xu Kun’s dignity.

After all, his brother had recently been humiliated by the other.

As a core disciple of the Profound Celestial Pavilion, how could he stand idly by?

Originally thinking if Ji Chen truly came from some Ancient Family, he would be reluctant to act against him.

But now, knowing Ji Chen was merely from the Lower Realm and had no backing or patron in the Immortal Realm, he naturally became more reckless.

Although Ji Chen came here with Bai Shenghao, in Xu Yan’s opinion, the two were clearly impossible to be friends, as Ji Chen had just given Bai Shenghao’s brother Bai Shengrong a beating.

“Ji Chen, you attacked Xu Kun in the Immortal Spirit Manor earlier, as his brother, I naturally have to seek justice for him.”

Under the collective focus of the crowd, Xu Yan stood up slowly, meanwhile, a strong aura surged from him, like converging into a mountain, pressing down heavily on Ji Chen.

The entire crowd couldn’t help but change their expressions, feeling the extraordinary aura.

As a core disciple of the Profound Celestial Pavilion, Xu Yan’s strength certainly wasn’t simple; among all those present, apart from Bai Shenghao, Wang Xiyuan, and a few others, no one could compare.

“Xu Yan, don’t push things too far. If you really take action against Young Master Ji with your strength, aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?”

Before Ji Chen could say anything, Yao Qian stepped forward first, her brows furrowed, standing in front of Ji Chen.

Clearly, whether Xu Yan or Xu Kun, the reason these brothers targeted Ji Chen in Yao Qian’s opinion was closely related.

She didn’t want Ji Chen to be targeted by the Xu Family, even the Profound Celestial Pavilion, because of her.

“What’s the matter? Will you only hide behind a woman?”

Xu Yan coldly sneered, his gaze pressing in, completely disregarding Yao Qian.

Ji Chen said nothing, slowly standing up, pulling Yao Qian behind him, he looked directly at Xu Yan, “If you want to fight, I’m happy to oblige.”
