Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 1198 - 1195: What Is Arrogance?

"Spending a million for the sake of beauty. If this gets out, it will surely become quite the story!"

An elegant cultivator said with a smile.

This also caused many women to swoon over Li Chen’s charisma.

Even many noble ladies and sect saintesses wanted to ask Li Chen whether he was lacking a maidservant by his side.

Zhou Ao was infuriated and embarrassed. He wanted to raise the price, but was stopped by an old man with a glance.

"Young master, our visit here has more important matters to attend to. Patience in small matters leads to greater achievements!"

This old man, with a white beard and hair, could manipulate the surrounding spiritual power with ease. His cultivation was likely superior to Sunx Bu’er, Wang Chao, Zhao Ang, and others.

He might have reached the Nascent Soul Late Stage Peak Great Perfection Realm, only a step away from the legendary Divinity Transformation Expert.

Although Zhou Ao was the Zhou family’s future steering person, he showed great respect before this elder.

"Elder Chen, I understand!"

After saying this, Zhou Ao glared at Li Chen, shouting, "In that case, the Phoenix Flame Grass belongs to you. May I ask for your esteemed name and which sect you hail from, so that we may learn from each other in the future?"

Li Chen glanced at him sideways and replied casually, "Li Chen, no sect, just a carefree loose cultivator!"

Hearing Li Chen introduce himself, everyone present was taken aback.

As the entire venue fell silent, Zhao Ang, the Deputy Sect Master of Black Cloud Sect, and Wang Chao, the Sect Master of Spiritual Spring Sect, both shouted in a burst at nearly the same time.

"What, you are Li Chen?"

Everyone was astonished, unable to understand why these two Nascent Soul big shots lost their composure upon hearing the name "Li Chen".

Even Zhou Ao, Sunx Bu’er, and the old man known as Elder Chen showed great interest at this moment.

Ji Lingling realized things had taken a turn for the worse, her pretty face tense and sweaty, even forgetting to breathe.

However, Li Chen remained expressionless, with an intriguing smile at the corner of his mouth.

It seemed he completely disregarded these two Nascent Soul big shots, who could make Golden Cauldron City tremble with a mere gesture.

"Yes, I am Li Chen!"

Upon hearing Li Chen’s confirmation, Wang Chao and Du Huoyang almost simultaneously shouted in anger.

"Was it you who destroyed my Spiritual Spring Sect overnight?"

"Was it you who killed Junior Brother Du Huoyang and wiped out the City Lord Pu Yinglong and his son of Tianyang City?"

After shouting, they looked at each other blankly.

They were all wanderers lost at sea!

Regardless of whether it was Zhao Ang of the Black Cloud Sect or Wang Chao of the Spiritual Spring Sect, Li Chen did not deny and straightforwardly admitted it.

"Yes, I destroyed the Spiritual Spring Sect. I killed Du Huoyang and Pu Yinglong father and son. What, do you two have a problem with that?"

What is called arrogance?

This is arrogance!

Destroying their entire lineage, killing their junior brother, and still asking if they have a problem?

Do you have a problem?

At this moment, both Zhao Ang and Wang Chao were furious beyond measure. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Their bodies were engulfed in raging flames of anger.

Especially Wang Chao, if his eyes could kill, Li Chen would have been incinerated to ashes right now, without even a speck left.

"Damn it, today I will kill you, brat, and avenge my entire Spiritual Spring Sect!"

Wang Chao was furious, preparing to make a move against Li Chen first.

But at this moment, Avanti suddenly spoke out to stop them.

"Halt!"

Wang Chao was shocked, yelling furiously, "Avanti, what do you mean by this? Could it be that your Golden Cauldron Hall intends to shelter this brat?"

Avanti shook his head and said, "Sect Master Wang, you misunderstand. To be honest, I have never met this friend named Li Chen."

"However, since he is here today, he is a guest of our Golden Cauldron Hall. We are obliged and responsible for ensuring his safety!"

"Moreover, our Golden Cauldron Hall has its rules, and no one is allowed to fight at the auction venue. Otherwise, it means being at odds with our entire Golden Cauldron Sect!"

"If you have any grudges between you, you may resolve them privately. Once outside Golden Cauldron City, our Golden Cauldron Sect promises not to interfere!"

Avanti spoke reasonably, and this had been a rule handed down for millennia, not intended to protect Li Chen on purpose.

Wang Chao and Zhao Ang both understood this.

Therefore, even though they were filled with fury, they had no choice but to suppress it forcefully at this moment.

Otherwise, if they insisted on fighting here, not only would they fail to get revenge, but they might also become sworn enemies with the formidable Golden Cauldron Sect, which would be an unwise move.

"Hmph, consider yourself lucky, brat, to live a few more hours. When this auction is over, I’ll grind you to dust!"

Wang Chao pointed at Li Chen, shouting angrily.

Zhao Ang also glared at Li Chen and shouted, "Li Chen, you killed my Junior Brother Du and slaughtered my Black Cloud Sect disciples. This enmity is as immeasurable as the waters of Three Rivers and Five Lakes!"

...

Seeing Wang Chao and Zhao Ang, these two Nascent Soul big shots, both looking as if they wished to skin and dismember Li Chen, everyone present couldn’t help but feel a chill for Li Chen.

Many even reveled in the spectacle, exclaiming that this trip to Golden Cauldron City was not in vain. Just this dazzling and splendid show was a feast for the eyes.

Elder Chen stroked his silvery white beard and squinted with a smile, "Interesting, interesting, truly interesting!"

Zhou Ao again glanced at Li Chen secretly and asked in a low voice, "Elder Chen, do you think tonight’s sudden situation will affect our overall plan?"

Elder Chen pondered for a moment and said solemnly, "The situation is not yet clear, so it’s hard to say. We need not hurry and just watch how things unfold!"

"Young master, Ling’er is sorry for causing you trouble!"

As the commotion gradually subsided, Ji Lingling, with reddened eyes and a choked voice, exclaimed.

Li Chen gently patted her hand and said, "It’s fine, they are just a few stray dogs. If they dare bark recklessly in front of me again, I’ll just slay them outright!"

Li Chen’s words were calm and collected, yet contained a dominating aura that soared to the sky.

Ji Lingling wanted to say something more, but after opening her mouth, she couldn’t utter a word, only nodding heavily like a chicken pecking at grain.

Rationally, she didn’t believe what Li Chen said, thinking he was merely comforting her.

After all, Wang Chao and Zhao Ang were both Nascent Soul Late Stage Peak experts, not comparable to ordinary Nascent Soul Great Powers like Du Huoyang and Pu Yinglong.

However, at this moment, she silently resolved in her heart.

If anything happened to Li Chen, she would definitely not cling to life, determined to live or die along with him...
