Novel Full 391 Here Comes Wu Jiechao
What the hell was happening? This was the first time Luo Puti addressed him as her fiancé!
Still, Chen Xiaobei was smart enough to recognize that it was merely a cover against the man who was walking towards them. He was one of Luo Puti's more relentless admirers, Wu Jiechao, and it was clear that she was using him as her fake boyfriend to chase him off.
"Puti, come with me. I want to talk to you in private." Wu Jiechao did not look happy; he appeared to be doing his best to suppress his anger.
"We could talk here. We should make things clear between us since there's quite the crowd around us." Luo Puti replied coldly while her eyes conveyed disgust.
"Here? Fine!" Wu Jiechao nodded and glared at Chen Xiaobei with disdain. "You, get lost!" He bellowed explosively, and soon people within earshot began to chatter and gossip.
"Haha! Wu Jiechao is here! Let's see how he embarrasses that fruit farmer!"
"It's not going to end well, judging from Wu Jiechao's face!"
"Pure drama! What do you think he would do, tell the fruit farmer to lick his shoes or cripple him and then toss him out of Dragon City?"
"Well, it all depends on that fruit farmer! He'll lick Wu Jiecaho's shoes if he's a wimp; his every single bone would be broken if he is a real man! Hehehe…"
Every single person appeared to revel in the schadenfreude. They began to surround the three of them for a closer view of Chen Xiaobei's reaction.
"My apologies... I don't think I know how to get lost. Would you mind making a demonstration?" Chen Xioabei replied with a calm smile on his face.
"Oh, shit! That brat is insane! He just told Wu Jiechao to get lost!"
"I don't think he knows that Wu Jiechao is son of the owner of Qing Wu Faction! His cultivation is extremely strong!"
"Yeah, and their faction has a really powerful backup behind them! Even if Wu Jiechao kills the brat today, they're powerful enough to make the whole thing slide!"
"That kid is meat on chopping board, that's for sure!"
The onlookers appeared extremely excited about the tragedy that was about to unfold.
"You went viral for selling the First Love Peach, right?" Wu Jiechao's rage died down after some time and resorted to glaring at Chen Xiaobei coldly.
"That's right. What about it?"
"I sent someone to check on you earlier. I heard that you're quite the big shot in Green Vine City!"
"I'm just a normal guy who ranked third in the world!" Chen Xiaobei shrugged.
"Hehe… Do you have the balls to fight me?" Wu Jiechao taunted.
Ding!
[Cultivation: Later phase of Qi refining stage. Health: 10000. Combat power: 10000]
Chen Xiaobei frowned after checking out Wu Jiechao with his Netherspirit Battlescouter. It now dawned on him that Dragon City was a bottomless sea, and he was definitely surprised that a random person like Wu Jiechao could reach ten thousand combat power.
"Wu Jiechao! What do you think you are doing bullying someone weaker than you?" Luo Puti had interjected before Chen Xiaobei could say a thing.
"Hehe… I'm not forcing him to fight; I just don't welcome cowards! Tell him to get lost if he doesn't have the balls to me!" Wu Jiechao guffawed coldly.
"Does this auction belong to you? You have no right to tell anyone to leave!" Luo Puti replied icily. Her hands, linked to Chen Xiaobei's, gave a squeeze – as if assuring him.
Still, strictly speaking, Chen Xiaobei was not afraid. Ten thousand combat power was nothing to him. In the worst-case scenario, Wu Jiechao would end up like Long Aotian because he could reach fifteen thousand combat power by using the Blood Chaos Sword Essence. One slash and Wu Jiechao would be split into two!
"Hehe… The owner of this auction is Master Zhuang! Don't you know that he's my big brother? And the two martial art manuals going on auction today are from the Qing Wu Faction! Now, tell me. Do I have the right to tell this bastard to get lost?" Wu Jiechao said arrogantly.
"Master Zhuang? Could you perhaps be referring to Zhuang Bifan?" Chen Xiaobei raised his eyebrows in amusement.
"That's right! Master Zhuang is my big brother, are you scared now? Now get out of my sight!"
"Xiaobei…" Luo Puti was getting anxious. She was trying her best to protect Chen Xiaobei, but he kept provoking Wu Jiachao.
"Is that kid alright? Where did he get that sort of confidence?"
"It's pretty obvious he's trying to act tough in front of Luo Puti! He couldn't stand being embarrassed in public!"
"He'll be struck by lightning thanks to his arrogance! Wu Jiechao will definitely teach him a lesson!"
...
The spectators were laughing at Chen Xiaobei; they thought he was a fool for trying to challenge a Jianghu elite.
"You sure you wanna play? I guess I should warn you – my current cultivation is in the latter phase of Qi refining stage, and my combat power is around ten thousand! I have crippled tons of people too. Scared now?" Wu Jiechao boasted.
"I won't back out since I promised to play, but I do have a small request!" Chen Xiaobei replied evenly. "You're definitely my superior in terms of combat power and older than me by seven to eight years. Others might call you a bully even if you beat me, so how about we refrain from using True Qi in this fight? We could still compete with our skills!"
"Haha… Not only is my True Qi stronger than yours, I also have more health! Should I just only use one hand too?" Wu Jiechao sniggered.
"That's not necessary. I don't think your health beats me at all!" Chen Xiaobei shrugged. He had ten thousand health, but he loses out to Wu Jiechao in terms of True Qi.
However, this in turn meant that he would definitely have a chance of defeating Wu Jiechao without using any items without the use of True Qi!
"What!? How dare you say that my health is weaker?!" Wu Jiechao exclaimed angrily. "I guess you really have a death wish, and I shall you grant you your dream! We're fighting with a technique, right? Name it! I'm expert in every martial art and weapon; I won't be responsible for any of your injuries!"
"Xiaobei… Don't do this… He trained in different martial arts and armaments since he was a kid. He's also brutal in combat! You're being tricked!" Luo Puti said beside him nervously.
"Baby, don't worry. Your man will not embarrass you here!" Chen Xiaobei tapped her hands lightly, gesturing that she should let him go.
"I heard you mention two martial art manuals. How about we use that?" He turned to Wu Jiechao and asked calmly.
"What? Are you serious? Hahaha…" The other man laughed out loud. "Thunder Splitting Rod Skill and Aeolus Kick are my signature moves! I have spent twenty years training them, starting when I was eight years old! You're going to hell soon!"
"Hehe… It's always been my interest to challenge formidable opponents. We'll know who is going to hell soon!" Chen Xiaobei chortled evilly.
