Chapter 371 Bet

Qian Feng was shocked. He quickly said, "Don't hurt him, Fang Chen; otherwise, you won't be leaving Spring Dawn Tower today!"

Fang Chen looked at Qian Feng and smiled lightly. "Why is he allowed to harm others while I can’t harm him? Who came up with this rule?"

Qian Feng advised, "No one came up with it, but it's just that Jue Wudi’s has a special status. What you know is only the tip of the iceberg and not the whole picture. It’s still not too late for you to stop now, otherwise you will bring trouble to the entire Fang Family. Even Grand Qian will have to bear some responsibility!"

Fang Chen recalled that Li Cang had once said that Jue Wudi might have been taken in as a disciple by a senior from a third-tier empire when he was young. It seemed that many people in the Grand Qian Empire knew about it. However, they probably still didn't know this opportunity came from the Spirit Blood Sect.

"As long as he admits defeat, everything will be fine." Fang Chen smiled lightly and looked at Jue Wudi. "So what if your talent is outstanding? What if your opportunities are great? If you die and return to dust, everything will just be empty talk. Are you willing to take the gamble and see if I dare to kill you?"

Jue Wudi's expression shifted erratically. He pushed back the sense of humiliation that welled up in his heart and expressionlessly said, "I admit defeat."

The crowd went crazy.

"Jue Wudi admits defeat!"

Fang Chen smiled and put away Little Sword. He then looked at Jue Feian. "Senior, since Jue Wudi has admitted defeat. Can I take her away?"

Jue Feian remained silent for a long time. Suddenly, he laughed and said, "Good. You can take her away. But remember one thing."

"Please enlighten me." Fang Chen smiled.

Jue Feian pointed to Jiang Tianai. “She can leave with you, but you must not take her out of the imperial city.”

Fang Chen smiled and said, “Are you going back on your word, Senior?”

"When did I promise to let you take her out of the imperial city?" said Jue Feian lightly. "I never promised you that, so I'm not breaking my word."

The crowd reacted.

"Right. it seems that the ancestor of the Jue Family never promised that. He just said Fang Chen can take the girl away."

Fang Chen fell silent for a moment, then nodded lightly. "So be it."

With that, he stepped into the void and walked step by step from Spring Dawn Tower to Jiang Tianai, taking her hand and walking toward the Jue Family.

Fang Xiu and others hurriedly followed, and the surrounding onlookers made their way as they left.

At Spring Dawn Tower, Qian Feng and the others were consoling Jue Wudi, saying that Fang Chen's methods were too despicable and that he didn't dare to confront him directly.

Jue Wudi remained silent all along. Suddenly, he looked at Fang Chen's back and said, "Fang Chen, at the start of the trade conference, I want to have another battle with you. If you win this battle, within a hundred years, I, Jue Wudi, will never set foot in Grand Qian again! If you lose, this girl will be returned to our family, and you must leave Grand Qian. You are not allowed to appear here for a hundred years!"

Before long, Fang Chen left the streets with the others.

Jue Tiangang limped over to Jue Feian and whispered, "Ancestor, my two arms.... Jue Wudi must give me an explanation."

"Wudi had been under an illusion and it wasn't intentional. As for the explanation, go to the warehouse and get a high-grade, yellow-rank Tiger Origin Pill. It has great benefits for your body refining technique. With your foundation, regrowing your two arms shouldn't be difficult," said Jue Feian lightly.

Tiger Origin Pill!?

Jue Tian Gang was pleasantly surprised and nodded repeatedly. "Thank you, Elder."

That was a pill that normally only the two ancestors were qualified to take. Jue Family members could only receive a Tiger Origin Pill if they had achieved great merits.

The pill not only had great benefits for the physical body but also greatly helped cultivation!

In the void.

"Let's disperse. Everyone has left," said Princess Shenlong.

Fang Wanli frowned. "Disperse? Shouldn't we go to Jue Feian and ask why he treated a little girl like that?"

"Well... we still have other matters to attend to. Daoist Fang, we will take our leave first...."

The Golden Core Realm experts from the five major clans hurriedly bid their farewell.

After they left, Princess Shenlong glanced at Fang Wanli and said lightly, "Even if you ask him, Jue Feian may not necessarily tell you. I advise you not to meddle in this matter."

With that, Princess Shenlong transformed into a rainbow light and disappeared into the sky.

"I just happen to want to meddle in this matter," muttered Fang Wanli. "But I have to wait until I reach the mid-stage of the Golden Core Realm. At that time, it should be about right."

At the teahouse.

Jue Feian slowly approached Jiang Zhong and smiled lightly, "You’re very happy that your young lady has been taken away?"

A smile appeared on Jiang Zhong's face. "Happy? Why wouldn't I be happy? Your Jue Family indeed doesn’t have much inheritance. The genius you nurtured got played around like that. If it weren't for the virtue your ancestors accumulated during the days they were our slaves, I don't think you—as you are now—would have had the opportunity to cultivate immortality."

Jue Feian didn't get angry. Their ancestors had really been the Jiang Family's slaves in the past, but it was too far in the past for him to be angry about it.

"Your young lady cannot leave the imperial capital. After the trade conference ends, we will take her back," said Jue Feian with a light smile. "When that time comes, what awaits her will be an even more tragic end."

Jiang Zhong's pupils were constricted. He coldly snorted and didn't say anything. The young lady should be in safe hands with Sect Leader Fang for now.
