Chapter 122: Showing Dominance
“Did he come for Yan Ruyu, or is it something else?” Jiang Chen glanced at Moyuan without much attention. He wondered about Moyuan’s purpose here. Was it to seize Yan Ruyu’s physique, seek revenge, or both?
“This is somewhat interesting!” Jiang Chen’s eyes twinkled as Moyuan’s unexpected arrival piqued his interest. If everything followed the original story, it would be dull, but Moyuan’s presence added some excitement.
“Finally, the Primordial Holy Son has arrived!” Seeing Jiang Chen, the crowd ceased their quarreling and turned their attention towards him.
“Are you the Primordial Holy Son? You don’t seem to have any distinct features!” The Lu Clan Holy Son examined Jiang Chen, speaking with a hint of arrogance.
Everyone was stunned by his statement, including the Pure Yang Holy Son and Bai Chen. The Lu Clan Holy Son’s arrogance was surprising. He held himself in such high regard that he didn’t even acknowledge Jiang Chen?Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com
“Holy Son!” Lu Yuan tried to stop the Lu Clan’s Holy Son, tugging at his sleeve.
“What’s wrong? Am I wrong?” The Lu Cla’s Holy Son frowned, somewhat dissatisfied. Jiang Chen did appear quite ordinary without any distinguishing traits.
“Hahaha, I thought such fools were extinct after Cangwu’s death! But now, another one emerges!” The Pure Yang Holy Son laughed heartily.
The current Lu Clan’s Holy Son did indeed resemble the former Cangwu. Both shared the same arrogance, dismissing everyone else as beneath them.
However, Cangwu might have been slightly wiser, as he at least knew some boundaries and realities, and whom he couldn’t offend. He might have been a bit cowardly but had some sense.
The Lu Clan Holy Son seemed like a naive fool, unable to read the situation.
“Being mocked is not a big deal; everyone experiences it. Just ignore them!” Jiang Che said calmly, a slight smile on his face.
His tone was soothing, like a gentle spring breeze, making everyone feel at ease. However, this left Jin Changhe with a grim expression.
Ever since his loss, that incident had become a dark spot in his life, frequently brought up by others. This infuriated Jin Changhe, who was determined regain every face he lost in the Supreme Palace.
Meanwhile, Lu Family Holy Son heart pounded as he looked at the seemingly ordinary Jiang Che before him. He couldn’t fathom how Jiang Che, with just a trace of his aura, could suppress him so thoroughly.
In Jiang Che’s presence, he felt like an ant, utterly powerless. This realization shook Lu Jia Shenzu to the core. He had prepared himself to sweep through all challenges, including Feng Qingtian and Jiang Che, proving himself as the strongest.
Yet, under Jiang Che’s immense pressure, all his dreams and ambitions crumbled. Seeing him regain his composure, Jiang Che withdrew his aura.
“What if he loses?” inquired Pure Yang Holy Son mischievously. “Wouldn’t that shatter his Dao heart?”
“Losing is nothing serious; everyone loses at times,” Jiang Che replied nonchalantly. “If that meant seeking death, Jin Changhe would have done so already. The most important thing in cultivation is a resilient Dao heart. Only those who are unyielding can reach the pinnacle.”
Jin Changhe felt numb. Why was it always him being mentioned? Why not someone else?
“Wait!” Jin Changhe suddenly realized. Pure Yang Holy Son had deliberately brought this up, knowing Jiang Che would respond this way. It was all to mock him again.
“Damn Pure Yang Holy Son!” Jin Changhe seethed with anger and regret. Losing to Pure Yang Saint Child had become a constant source of ridicule.
Had he lost to Qin Ershi instead, at least Qin Ershi’s status would have spared him this constant humiliation. Unlike Pure Yang Holy Son, Qin Ershi wouldn’t constantly remind everyone of his defeat.
