Chapter 1898 - 1894: Playing Dirty

"Heh, heh, whether or not the Chen Family dug a big pit for themselves, it’s hard to say. After all, before our Chen Family clashed with your Tie Sect, you didn’t even regard us with any importance, but who ended up suffering defeat? Your Tie Sect did. The ones paying compensation are also your Tie Sect. So, some things shouldn’t be concluded before they come to fruition!"

Chen Feng sneered coldly, his voice full of disdain.

"Oh, ho ho, you’re really puffed up, aren’t you? Chen Feng, do you really think that after defeating our Tie Sect, your Chen Family can challenge the first-tier powers? Do you know what first-tier powers are, and how terrifying they can be?"

"The number of Heavenly Rank experts that first-tier powers possess is enough to scare you to death. Moreover, they have more than one Heavenly Rank Perfection expert. Do you think that snake you have at the Chen Family can hold them off? You’re truly playing with snakes this time!"

"When the Yan Hall is enraged and sends out several Heavenly Rank Perfection experts to besiege your Chen Family, tell me, relying on just that snake, how long do you think the Chen Family can last? Truly ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth!"

The Great Elder of Tie Sect spoke with utter disdain.

"Ha, I’m still saying the same thing. How do you know the Chen Family can’t do it before a real fight happens? And I have one more thing to tell you: never underestimate a rising power, because you never know how fast it can grow!"

"Take our Chen Family for example. It’s been a while; how do you know we haven’t made any progress? In your eyes, am I just a reckless guy who fears neither heaven nor earth, careless of life and death?"

"The fact that I’m daring to challenge Yan Hall indicates that I have the confidence to counter them, just like dealing with your Tie Sect. The moment I dared to confront your Tie Sect, I was prepared to go to the bitter end. Do you understand?"

Chen Feng smirked coldly as he spoke.

"Fine, fine, you have your reasons, Chen Feng, you’re so justified. You’re so impressive. Is there anyone in the Ancient Martial World you dare not provoke? This time, I really want to see how long the Chen Family can hold out!"

"Don’t blame me for not warning you. First-tier powers in the Ancient Martial World are far ahead of other levels, as they possess a transcendent nature and their strength is terrifying. Yan Hall is surely an established power in the Ancient Martial World. In front of them, our Tie Sect is not even an ant!"

"And as for your Chen Family, if I recall correctly, when we had our showdown with your Chen Family, you also suffered severe damage, and paid a terrible price to force me to negotiate with you. With such strength, how much could you grow in such a short time?"

"Even if you were to grow double, what would it matter? In front of Yan Hall, your Chen Family is still less than an ant, understand?"

The Great Elder of Tie Sect spoke dismissively.

"I realize some people have knelt so long they can’t even stand. Are first-tier powers really that frightening? I, Chen Feng, just don’t believe in this evil. Wait and watch, it won’t be long before I make you realize that even against first-tier powers, the Chen Family is not to be feared!"

Chen Feng asserted confidently.

Prior to this.

He indeed didn’t have much confidence to challenge a first-tier power like Yan Hall.

After all, Yan Hall certainly has more than one Heavenly Rank Perfection level expert; at least three or four.

Whereas at that time, the Chen Family only had the Devouring Sky Python, a Heavenly Rank Perfection level demon beast overseeing.

The old master’s state was unstable, unable to confirm if he could compete against a Heavenly Rank Perfection expert.

Meanwhile, Chen Feng himself was only at the Heavenly Rank Early Stage, able at best to contend with experts at the Heavenly Rank Late Stage Peak, completely at a loss with Heavenly Rank Perfection.

Hence, relying solely on the Devouring Sky Python.

At that time, Chen Feng truly lacked confidence.

But after battling the Ancient Demon Clan creature on the beach that night.

Chen Feng found that if the old master went all out, he could approximate the combat power of a Heavenly Rank Perfection.

Thus, with one old master and one Devouring Sky Python, that’s two Heavenly Rank Perfection level combat powers.

And now, he himself has broken through to the Heavenly Rank Middle Stage.

With his capability to fight across ranks, he can contend with a Heavenly Rank Perfection expert.

This amounts to three Heavenly Rank Perfection level combat powers.

With this strength, even facing Yan Hall.

In terms of numbers, perhaps not as numerous as Yan Hall’s Heavenly Rank experts.

But once engaged in battle, absolutely won’t allow Yan Hall an easy time.

Yan Hall desires to crush the Chen Family like an ant; that’s absolutely impossible.

The Chen Family now is a hard stone as iron.

Yan Hall wanting to swallow the Chen Family must prepare to break all its teeth in the process.

That’s Chen Feng’s confidence base.

"Chen Feng, you’re the best, the greatest. Now, who in the entire Ancient Martial World doesn’t know how awesome you and the Chen Family are? Daring to challenge Yan Hall, now I shall wait to see the show, whether your bragging ends up slapping your own face, or whether you truly can withstand Yan Hall’s pressure, whatever you say then, I’ll listen!"

The Great Elder of Tie Sect sneered.

"Stop with the nonsense, send over the compensation our Chen Family needs now. You’ve had plenty of time, what’s the reason for this delay?"

Chen Feng demanded coldly.

"Don’t rush, the things will be delivered to you eventually, but whether your Chen Family can bear Yan Hall’s pressure is something I cannot say. If I send the items over, and Yan Hall ends up wiping out your Chen Family, should they suspect the Tie Sect’s involvement with your Chen Family, setting their sights on our Tie Sect, with our current situation, we absolutely can’t withstand their might!"

"So, best to delay these items for now. Wait until you truly survive through Yan Hall before discussing it. Then, I will personally see to delivering the items to you, how about that?"

The Great Elder of Tie Sect playfully remarked.

"So you intend to renege on this debt?"

Chen Feng narrowed his eyes, questioning coldly.

Although the Great Elder of Tie Sect didn’t say it outright, the implication was clear.

He obviously has no intention of paying!

He wants Yan Hall to destroy the Chen Family, thus no need to compensate the Tie Sect at all.

As for that so-called fear of Yan Hall targeting the Tie Sect, that’s entirely a fabricated excuse.

Thus, at this moment, this Great Elder of Tie Sect has evidently intended to wriggle out of the compensation.

For Chen Feng, this is naturally intolerable.

Not to mention anything else, merely the materials required to repair the Flame Treasure Tower are essential.

In any case, he will have Tie Sect deliver them!
