C400 Li Jinghong

The Laifu Lodge was the most famous inn in Spirit Core City. Its backers were so strong that countless warriors didn't dare to come and cause trouble.

The tall and sturdy man who was just thrown out was obviously the first time that he came to Spirit Core City, so he didn't understand the rules here.

After being cleaned up by the middle-aged man, the inn regained its calm once again, and Fang Chen and the other two continued to drink.

After about two hours, Fang Chen and the other two finally had enough to eat and drink. After that, they paid their bills.

"Brother Fang, you really aren't nice. This meal was originally my treat, but you actually ended it secretly." Duke of Soaring Dragon looked at Fang Chen and laughed.

When Fang Chen and the Black Armored Marquis heard this, they all laughed out loud.

As the three of them walked out of Laifu Lodge, they bumped into the tall and sturdy man who had just been flung out. When the tall and sturdy man saw Fang Chen and the other two walk out, his face was filled with anger.

"You three little bastards." The tall and sturdy man was a genius from a large country of South Ridge Land. His strength had reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi Hai realm.

When he was in a large country, his personality was extremely irritable. After he came to Spirit Core City, he did not cower in the slightest, which was why there was that farce at Laifu Lodge.

The muscular man was flung out by the [Condensing Reality Realm] of the Laifu Lodge. He felt greatly humiliated, but he did not dare find trouble with the Laifu Lodge. He could only vent his anger on Fang Chen and the other two.

"Halt."

Seeing that Fang Chen and the other two were ignoring him, he took a step forward and stopped in front of Fang Chen and the other two, as he said coldly.

"Hmm?"

Fang Chen and the other two were stopped by the big size man, they raised their eyebrows, looking a little displeased.

"What is it? You do not dare to challenge the [Condensing Reality Realm], and only dare to bully Qi Hai realm Warriors? " Duke of Soaring Dragon sneered and mocked.

"Do the three of you want to die?" The burly man shouted in anger.

"With just you alone, you want to kill all three of us? How naïve." The Black Armored Marquis sneered.

The strength of the three of them could be considered invincible within the Qi Hai realm. A warrior at the peak of the ninth stage of the Qi Hai realm was challenging them, if this wasn't Spirit Core City, the muscular man would have already died.

"If this is not Spirit Core City, I will definitely teach you a lesson." The burly man shouted in anger.

"You should be glad that this is the Spirit Core City." Fang Chen slightly said.

With that, the three of them turned around and left.

Looking at the backs of Fang Chen and the other two, the burly muscular man's face was filled with rage.

Fang Chen and the other two temporarily stayed at the Spirit Core City.

One day, Fang Chen and the other two were walking on the street when suddenly, many warriors rushed towards the plaza like a tide.

"Is there something up ahead?" Fang Chen was suspicious, and asked.

"Come, let's go take a look." Black Armored Marquis said.

After that, the three of them followed most of the warriors and arrived at the square.

At this time, on the square, there was a stage. On the stage stood a young martial artist. This young martial artist's body was filled with killing intent.

"Who else?" The voice of this young martial artist was extremely heavy as he spoke in a cold voice.

Fang Chen and the other two were a little confused, they immediately asked the warriors beside them, and after a while, the three of them found out.

"So that's how it is." After Fang Chen heard this, he nodded slightly.

Within the South Ridge Land, there were many restrictions and fights, but there were a lot of warriors and conflicts within the city, so a stage appeared.

Not only could the arena resolve the enmity between the two, it could also allow martial artists to challenge them.

The martial artists that ascended the arena first were called the gatekeepers. As for the other martial artists, they were free to challenge the gatekeepers. As long as one martial artist could win ten matches, they would receive the rewards from the City Lord's Mansion.

Moreover, this arena was the only place in Spirit Core City where they could fight.

"Who else?"

The young martial artist standing on the Martial Stage had a fiendish look on his face. There was a trace of blood on his body. He had come here to settle a personal grudge with a martial artist.

After his enemies were killed, he began to defend the arena. There were already several martial artists that went onstage to challenge him, but they were all defeated by him.

Four consecutive victories, as long as it was six matches, one could obtain the rewards from the City Lord's Mansion. It was said that the City Lord's Mansion's rewards were extremely generous.

Crash …

Just as the warrior finished speaking, a tall and sturdy man walked up the stage. Seeing that, Fang Chen and the other two looked at each other.

This burly man was the one who had been rude to them.

"Let me end your winning streak." The tall and sturdy man growled.

As soon as the burly man stepped onto the stage, he began to fight with the young warriors from before. After a fierce battle, the burly man won.

The tall and sturdy man revealed a wild smile, he looked around and suddenly noticed Fang Chen and the other two, following that, his eyes were filled with provocation, looking straight at Fang Chen and the other two.

"You three grandsons, do you dare to go onstage?" The burly man roared in front of all the warriors.

The faces of Fang Chen and the other two slightly changed, the violent and furious Black Armored Marquis immediately rushed up the stage.

"The bastard finally dares to step on stage?" The burly man sneered.

"You are courting death."

Black Armored Marquis was one of the most powerful experts among the young generation of the Golden Crown. Facing the provocation of the burly man, the Black Armored Marquis was extremely furious.

"Mystic Armor Shield."

The Black Armored Marquis roared, he released his Profound Armor Shield, and a layer of black halo appeared around his body. The moment this layer of light appeared, the Black Armored Marquis's defense rose to the extreme.

In the next moment, Black Armored Marquis clenched his fist, gathered all of his power, and threw a punch at the muscular man.

The burly man's face was filled with a mocking smile.

However, just as Black Armored Marquis's fist was about to land on the tall and sturdy man's body, his face finally revealed a trace of fear.

"Ah …"

The tall and sturdy man let out a miserable scream, and was directly thrown out of the stage with Black Armored Marquis's punch.

"Trash." Black Armored Marquis sneered and said.

Black Armored Marquis easily defeated the muscular man, shocking countless warriors.

It had to be known that the Spirit Core City was a border region of the South Ridge Land, so the warriors here were not as powerful as the warriors in the South Ridge Land's core city.

The strength of the tall and sturdy man was considered quite good among the younger generation in Spirit Core City. He did not expect that this warrior in front of him had actually sent Black Armored Marquis flying with a single punch.

"Let me meet you."

Following that, the warriors of the young generation continued to challenge the Black Armored Marquis.

After a series of fierce battles, Black Armored Marquis had won nine times in a row. After nine wins, the tenth person to appear finally caused the entire plaza to be filled with exclamations.

"Li Jinghong, I didn't expect Li Jinghong to come to this kind of place." Someone exclaimed.

Li Jinghong was the top expert among the young generation of Spirit Core City. His strength and cultivation had long since reached the peak of the ninth stage of Qi Hai realm.

According to legend, Li Jinghong had once killed a Half-step Condensing Reality Realm disciple, and had even safely retreated into the hands of a First Level of Condensing Reality Realm warrior.

When the crowd saw Li Jinghong appear on the scene, all of them were shocked in their hearts.

"Your strength is not bad. It's worth it for me to help you." Li Jinghong smiled and said.

"I hope you don't disappoint me."

Black Armored Marquis squinted his eyes and said in a low voice as he looked at Li Jinghong.

Whoosh …

With a flick of Li Jinghong's wrist, a beam of spirit energy shot out instantly towards Black Armored Marquis.

Caught off guard, Black Armored Marquis's body was struck by the spiritual energy pillar, but fortunately, the Black Armored Marquis's defense was strong, and was not too much of a problem.

"His defense is that strong?"

Seeing that the Black Armored Marquis was safe and sound, Li Jinghong's face revealed a hint of surprise. He immediately unleashed an even fiercer attack.

Below the stage, Fang Chen and Duke of Soaring Dragon had been paying attention to the battle between Black Armored Marquis and Li Jinghong.

"This Li Jinghong's strength is on par with mine. Black Armored Marquis is no match for him." The Duke of Soaring Dragon said lightly.

Fang Chen nodded his head, Duke of Soaring Dragon was right, Li Jinghong's power was extremely strong. Black Armored Marquis relied on his defense, and was simply unable to fight with him.

As expected, after a fierce battle, Black Armored Marquis was defeated. However, although Black Armored Marquis was defeated, it still posed quite a threat to Li Jinghong.

"Your defense is very strong. I wonder if you would be interested in visiting my residence?" Li Jinghong looked at Black Armored Marquis and laughed.

"Not interested." The Black Armored Marquis said directly.

Li Jinghong was stunned. He was surprised that someone would refuse Li Jinghong's invitation without thinking.

"Brother, I am Li Jinghong. If you were willing to come to my residence, you might be surprised." Li Jinghong said.

Just as Black Armored Marquis wanted to reject, he suddenly heard Fang Chen's voice, he nodded his head and said: "Sure, but I want to bring my two good friends over."

The fact that Black Armored Marquis agreed to Li Jinghong's request caused a hint of happiness to appear on Li Jinghong's face. He looked towards Fang Chen and Duke of Soaring Dragon.

"Sure, sure." Li Jinghong said.

Soon after, Fang Chen and the other two followed Li Jinghong and left.

Along the way, Black Armored Marquis was puzzled, and asked secretly: "Brother Fang, why did you want me to accept Li Jinghong's invitation?"

"Spirit Core City is very far from Aquatic City, the journey is too dangerous. Maybe we can borrow Li Jinghong's help to leave Spirit Core City and head there." Fang Chen secretly said through sound transmission.

"Oh? What did Brother Fang discover? " Hearing that, the Duke of Soaring Dragon asked.

Fang Chen's eyes flickered, looking at Li Jinghong who was walking in the front, he secretly transmitted to him: "The technique Li Jinghong used just now is extremely similar to the deity statue of Zhentian, I suspect that Li Jinghong is Portrait of God's disciple."

During these few days in the Spirit Core City, Fang Chen had been reading the history books of the South Ridge Land. He understood a lot, and one of the things that caught his attention was the Heaven Shaking Art of the Portrait of God.

This cultivation technique was extremely famous in the South Ridge Land, Fang Chen purposely took a few glances at it.

And Portrait of God, it seemed like she was in Aquatic City.

Although he had never heard that Li Jinghong was a Disciple of the Deity Sculpture Sect, his cultivation technique was very similar to a deity statue that could shake the heavens.

This was also why Fang Chen made Black Armored Marquis agree to Li Jinghong's invitation!
