Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3305: Overwhelming

When they heard the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s words, Bai Yurou and Chu Tianxing who were currently being forced back by the terrifying pressure suddenly shuddered. Their hearts surged, immediately looking towards the elderly servant who stood quietly beside Jian Chen in disbelief and shock.

Xia Jianming? Union leader Xia?

These both referred to the same person, so there were no longer any doubts about his identity anymore.

He was the leader of the Xia Merchant Union, one of the three merchant unions of the Peace region, Xia Jianming!

As Godkings, Bai Yurou and Chu Tianxing had never seen the leader of the Xia Merchant Union before, but they had heard many things about him.

But right now, the two of them struggled to imagine that the old man who always behaved like a servant in front of them and was currently standing quietly behind Jian Chen was actually the leader of the Xia Merchant Union!

Exactly what kind of person was the leader of the Xia Merchant Union?

Throughout the entire Peace region, he was a man of great authority and prestige. He was beneath the nine imperial cities, but from certain perspectives, his capabilities even surpassed the nine imperial cities. He controlled one of the merchant unions that divided the Peace region into three, possessing startling amounts of wealth.

How could someone of such lofty status serve another as a servant?

In particular, the person that union leader Xia regarded as his master was a troubled person that they had saved from the belly of an ancient forest beast from Death Valley in the past.

Both Bai Yurou and Chu Tianxing were rather dumbfounded. Their heads had blanked out. A troubled person that they did not even pay much attention to had become the master of a Primordial realm expert in the blink of an eye. That was far too absurd and bizarre.

At this moment, the presence from the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King suddenly increased, which immediately exceeded what Bai Yurou and Chu Tianxing could withstand. Both of them grunted and staggered backwards, leaving behind deep footprints.

They could no longer spare any effort to think about anything else, pouring all of their energy into resisting the pressure.

Meanwhile, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s green clothes fluttered away. He was solemn and dignified, staring straight at Jian Chen while striding over.

With each step, the presence he gave off grew stronger.

“Jian Chen? I haven’t heard about you. Where are you from? Where do you cultivate?” The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King snorted coldly, approaching Jian Chen step by step. New chaptᴇrs are published on ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

Behind Jian Chen, Xia Jianming became even more stern. The increase in the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s presence made him feel tremendously oppressed too.

However, seated on the stone chair, Jian Chen seemed extremely relaxed and composed. He lifted his cup steadily and took a sip before placing it back down gently. He said indifferently, “Isn’t it a little rude of you to ask such personal questions the moment you’ve arrived? Though, I still haven’t decided whether I want to tell someone all that.”

As he spoke, a spatial barrier silently appeared, completely isolating the area around the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King like it had split up the world. Even his presence had been blocked by the spatial barrier.

With the spatial barrier, Bai Yurou, Chu Tianxing, and Bai Yueye immediately felt their bodies lighten. All of the pressure had vanished instantly.

However, none of them said anything. They all stared at Jian Chen, greatly shocked.

The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King stood before the spatial barrier and stared at it for a while. He growled as he said, “No wonder the Xia Merchant Union is bold enough to expand. So they had someone like you supporting them from behind. Looks like the ancestors of the Zhan family and Xiong family both died at your hands.”

“That’s right!” Jian Chen said indifferently.

The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s gaze sharpened as he bellowed like he was interrogating him, “Was the ancestor of the White Emperor clan injured by you as well that day outside White Emperor city?”

When they heard that, Bai Yurou and Chu Tianxing both shuddered inside, looking at Jian Chen in disbelief.

“You can say so!” Jian Chen.

However, when his calm answer reached Bai Yurou and Chu Tianxing’s ears, it was no less than a bombshell. It left them blanked out and stupefied yet again.

Suddenly, Bai Yurou and Chu Tianxing both looked towards the spatial barrier. They felt a great mixture of emotions inside.

By now, how could they still not realise that Jian Chen was actually the mysterious expert who had saved them twice when they faced the Earthen Winged King and then were ambushed by ancestor Yan?

“H-he’s actually an expert on par with heavenly kings. T-this-”

When they learnt about Jian Chen’s strength, Bai Yurou and Chu Tianxing both gasped. 4887

Heavenly kings were supreme existences that they could only look up to but never reach. They never imagined that they had actually spent so much time beside an expert on par with heavenly kings.

“You’ve gotten in my way again and again. Tell me, why do you oppose me? Has someone instructed you to do so? Is it the Jade Sky Ruler? Or the Heaven Fighting Ruler?” the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King asked sternly.

“I’ve only been minding my own business. How can you say I’m opposing you? As for who instructed me…” Jian Chen’s lips curled into a sneer. “No one has the right to instruct me in this world!”

“Hmph, you don’t have a ruler supporting you, yet you’re still interfering in the matters of the Peace region? Are you sick of living? Let me give you a piece of advice. Everything that’s happening in the Peace region is nowhere near as simple as you think it to be. Even if you possess the strength of a heavenly king, you can’t change anything.”

“I’ll give you an opportunity right now to hand over the people of the White Emperor clan and Xia Jianming. After that, leave the Peace region immediately. I’ll forget about everything you’ve done in the past,” the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King said sternly. He could tell with a single glance that the spatial barrier casually cast by Jian Chen was extremely powerful, such that the laws were no weaker than his.

With Laws of Space at such a high level, combined with the Laws of the Sword that were no weaker, even the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King was not confident about killing him.

Most importantly, he possessed the Laws of Space. If he wanted to leave, it was impossible for the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King to stop him.

As a result, after some consideration, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King gave up on killing Jian Chen. He planned on leaving him up to the Blood Slaughter Ruler once he returned.

“Since the people of the White Emperor clan have come to this courtyard, I’ll obviously protect them. As for Xia Jianming, he’s serving me, so it’s even more impossible for me to hand him over.” Jian Chen looked at the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King and continued, “There’s one more thing. I have never cared about the interests of any heavenly king.”

The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s face sank. His eyes immediately turned cold.

However, what Jian Chen said next immediately ignited the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s killing intent.

“Last of all, I have a piece of advice for you too. Keep your nose out of my business.”
